ing organized baseball to a worlds series
with the Feds The letter reads:
Gentlemen: On behalf Of the Federal

the series between the pennant winners
Of the National and American leagues Of
1915 for a series Of as many games as you
may suggest for the baseball champion
ship of the world. the Federal League s

ganization selected by a committee COM
posed of Hon. Woodrow Wilson, Hon
William Hale Thompson. mayor Of Chi
cago. and Hon. John Purroy Mitchell.
mayor Of New York.
In my unanswered challenge of 1914 to
you fully elaborated on why the world 8
championship could not properly be de-
cided without the Federal League being
represented. Therefore there Ii no neces-
sity Of again outlining our reasons
Il am sure that the American public
wants an undisputed champion of the

From Messenger Boy to Champion
Jockey, Story Of Johnny McTaggart
New York Has Contributed to
Race Tracks Brothers of
Riding Talent.
BRINGS MISSION HOME

A little more than three years ago the
Western Union Telegraph Company num-
bered among its messengers one of the
wisest little New York boys magma BILE.
Curly-haired and as cute as could be-.
with several of the Della Fox variety of
ringlets scattered on his forehead. the
youngster stood out among the lads of
his own age. He swan off West Fifty
fifth street dock in summer and coasted
down the Tenth avenue hill on sleigh
in winter. Altogether he was the scamp
OF the neighborhood. He wasn't the best
kind of a messenger boy for the simple
reason that he was cut out for something
else. He was more or less distin Suished
among his play mates because his big
brother was a jockey. He himself was
small enough to be jockey. too. but the
opportunity hadn't come his way. When
ever he had a chance he would travel
all the way to Sheepshead Bay or Grave
send to see his big brother lifted into the
saddle of a thoroughbred. How he en-
WED him. One day Mickey Sheedy
caught the drift in the kids wistful eyes.
Jumped at Chance.
Want to ride one Of those birds.
Johnny" asked Mickey.
JoHHHS nearly JuriipeQ out OI HIS QdHtS.
Gee, I'd love to-" answered the boy.
Sheedy, with fear and trembling for
the kids safety. but with lot of ad-
miration for his nerve. threw little
Johnny into the saddle of-well, the
name makes no difference.
Johnny sat on the fighty animal like
born Jockey. The horse reared and
kicked around, but there wasn't a chance
of his unseating the lad. Little Johnny
acted as IL he were part of the horse.
and he made the thoroughbred behave.
The next afternoon the Western Union
was minus a messenger boy and the race
track had claimed a youngster. who was
destined to be one of the turf's best
little history makers. By this time, dear
reader. you are probably aware of the
