From the amount Of improvements

grounds but in the living quarters for

The quartermaster has finished floor

SEES have been added. Two Of the new
baths are ln.atcd in the infantry camp
and one in the artillery. The cavalry or
carnations have been here so long that
of cour4e. they nave had this equipment
for some time.
Mbst Of the electrical connections in
the post have been made. The officers
line has boon lighted and the road run
hing through the post has been equipped
for illumination. Captain Chambers is
trying for authority, TO light each tent

the troops are stationed the towns have

In addition 10 the above mentioned
Improvement il is planned to construct
new stables for the mounted orderly
company and the machine gun compan,
of the Fourth infantry and two for the
artillery. 1t is also planned To build new
screens in kitchens for each organization

extensive repairs in the old brick ar
tillery post. The building is To be re
rooted. the windows repaired ard gen
orally made habitable. The same i'm
~proyements will be made in the old bar

wall. the old guard house, the %headquar

Of the residences in officers line will al
so be improved.
4 new galvanized rooted barracks has
been built for the signal corps and the
roof of the wireless station repaired.
The city has made n ncw water connec-
ton into the post and plenty Of water
pressure is new available for all pur-
poses. Efforts are being made To repair
the old sewer system of the post which
has been an exceptionally good one but
has fallen into bad order through disuse.
AS far as possible all materials used
have been and will be bought from local
merchants. This purchase together with
the amount of money spent from the
mess funds by he different organizations
is proving an immense benefit to the
town. The October payroll for the troops
on the lower border would amount To at
least $130. 000.

much from The injury which might in
time affect baseball, but | can well
appreciate the tremendous hold which
this form OF gambling is gaining on
the public, and for the moral welfare
of the community it should be stamp
ed ont Just the same as any other
form OF gambling. a man may use

CANDLES his family is the sufferer,
and that is my first reason in being
opposed to playing fortunes wheel
with regard to baseball.
The baseball pool is more insidi-
Gus than almost any other form Of
the gambling evil not excepting even
the lottery or the slot machine.
Some years ago saw poor laborer,
working fos a dollar a day. gamble

one of those Slot machines. II the
baseball pool is not abated, We shall
have just such happenings on every
hand. have somewhat OF an inti-
mate knowledge Of the pools. When
| was Governor Of Pennsylvania this
type OF gambling became very prevail
ent throughout the State. | placed
the case in the hands of the State
Police, and after dilisent effort the
practice was wiped out, Several
men were convicted. but sentence
was suspended. The fact Of the con
viction, however held forceful les
son for the others who were involy-
ed, and baseball pools ceased To
accomplish such a result requires
the work OF competent State Police
or the conscientious effort OF the mu-
nicipal authorities. And once abolish
ed there has to be careful watch that
there is not a resumption. Even
now the practice is beginning to crop,
out in Pennsylvania, and ] am going
to consult with the Governor about
IL.
The growth Of the baseball pool as
a real factor in gambling has been
astonishing. 1t originally began in
the office and in the club, when a
group OF men would contribute GER
tain sum Of money. draw a team, and
collect if it scored the highest num-
Der Of runs. These were so popular
that the gamblers saw great possibili-
ties in selling pools, and it is estimat-
ed that a tremendous sum OF money
is every week changing hands as a re
suit of this style of play. Some be-
lieve fhe amount reaches well into
the hundreds of thousands and of
this the percentage to the profession
al gamblers is big. Such play natur-
ally is receiving the attention of
those who are interested in baseball
and it is said that the influx to the
gambling is already having its effect
on the attendance at the ball parks.

WIPE OUT BASEBALL POOLS
Maenates Say Gambling Is Injurious
to the Sport.

New York, May 29.-Within a
short time a nationwide campaign
will be instituted against the base
ball pools. The menace to the game
Is fully realized by those interested
in baseball and yesterday President
John X. Tener of the National
League was outspoken in condemn

growing menace to the community as
well as to baseball itself"
Before long the matter will be call
ed to the attention of the District
Attorney in this city and the facts
will also be presented to Governor
Whitman and action asked to abate
the evil, which is considered to be
more insidious than the old-time lot

his accommodation of the practice,
