BASEBALL BRIEFS

The best that the Red Sox could dc
with Toronto was to tie them, to 5.
Jim Cooney was bought by the RED
Sox in the fall of 1918 and returned to
the Worcester team in the New England
league at the close of the training season
| in 1914, and has remained in Worcester
ever since.
Sam Rice, pitcher, has been playing
! the outield for Griffith of late and is
playing a great game in the outer garden
as well as doing some nice hitting.
The first match ball game ever played
in New England took place in Boston
Sept. s. 1858, when the Trimountain
team of Boston met the Portland, Me,
team and lost the game by score of
AZ to ~. The Trimountain team was or
ganized and drilled by Edward A. Saltz
man OF New York. The club practieed
for about year before they played a
single game. Finally team was organ
lied in Portland and teams were grad
ually organized throughout New England
from this time on. For the three years
before the war there was a great deal OF
hard feeling between the members of the
two styles of play but finally it was de-
cided that the New York game was more
scientific than the Massachusetts game
and the New York game gradually
climbed to what it is to-day. The first
professional ball in New England was
played in 1871 and then there was moth
ing thought of gate receipts, it being
more of pastime for men after getting
out of the shops at night than anything
else

WANTS EIGHT
CAPITAL SHIPS
Four Superdreadnoughts
and Four Battle Cruisers
Immediately

Washington. July 2a-Oflicial word
went TO the capitol yesterday that Presi'
dent Wilson stands behind the eonstruc-
ton programme of the naval bill as it
passed the Senate, including four dread
naughts and four battle cruisers to be
built Immediately,
Prolonged conferences were looked for
between Senate and House members
named to find an agreement on the bill.
Final accord was not considered likely
perhaps for weeks. Senate conferees
will hold out for increases added to- the
House measure. House members will
fight particularly the Senate's building
programme plan, but Senate leaders be
lieve that with the administration be-
hind them most of the increases over the
House bill will be retained.
The Navy League of the United States,
which has advocated many of the meas
ures of the Senate naval bill for years,
yesterday decided TO ask its members
throughout the country TO urge the pas
sage of the Senate bill through the House
of Representatives Navy league mem
bers are asked to express their approval
OF the Senate bill to their congressman
in order that these men may feel that
the sentiment of the country and their
districts in particular is behind their
favorable action in regard to the bill.
Copies of the leading editorial in the
August number of "Sea Power" the
Navy league official organ, which strong
ly supports the Senate naval bill, were
sent out broa beast to members yesterday
with the request that the members read
it and then work to arouse support in
their communities for the bill As the
Navy league numbers now with its WON
ans section and other affiliated branches, !
many thousands of members, this action
of the executive committee of the Navy |
league will result in the rallying of en-
thusiastic supporters to the bill in many !
parts of the country and will do much
to further its passage.

Irish STATUS
IS WORSE
Country Now in Hands of a
Makeshift Govern
ment
AFFAIRS STILL
UNDER MILITARY
London Press Blames Cab
met for The Mud

London, July 26.-Apparently the sta
tus of ireland has gone steadily from
bad to worse ever since the Sim Fem
rising on Easter Sunday, for at present
the country is in the hands of a tenn
porary and makeshift government com
posed of commission of Judges assisted
by Major General Sir John Maxwell,
commander of the British forces in Ire
land, who still is maintaining military
control over most of the ordinary police
functions. There is no viceroy in the
place of Baron Wimborne, former lord
lieutenant of Ireland and since Premier
Asquith's announcement that the Dublin
castle system of government had been
an utter failure none is likely TO be APP
pointed. The Office OF Augustine Birrell,
ex.chief secretary for Ireland remains
untitled and Herbert Samuel, the head of
the home office, who has no special
knowledge of Irish affairs, represents the
interest of Ireland in the cabinet and
before the House of Commons. Great
Britain finds itself at one of the most
critical stages OF the war again distract
ed by wranglings over the old problem
and with no light ahead. The National
list members in the House of Commons
who as party thus far have supported
the governments war and democratic
measures, threaten to shift their position
and to become an opposition party. The
position of the Nationalists, moreover, is
Discomfort in Ireland over

Irish Problem In Worse Tangle.

The English newspapers of all factions
blame the cabinet for its management OF
the Irish question and regret the failure
of compromise, the only conspicuous
exception being the Morning Post, which
consistently has demanded the govern
ment OF Ireland by strong hand and no
home rule.
The Daily Telegraph says: "The aban-
donment of the recent hopes of settle
ment means trouble-trouble in Ireland
and trouble in the House of Commons.
We have the old milestone tied once more
around our necks in heavier and more
dangerous shape than ever and we shall
be fortunate if it does not hamper our
progress at every step through deep wa
ters."
The Daily News says: "The collapse of
the negotiations leaves the Irish problem
not merely unsettled, but worse than it
has been at any time since the eighties"
The Express says: "The whole bus
mess is deplorable tragedy. There has
been a plethora of delay and misunder.
standing until now we are faced with
the breakdown of a political truce which
has existed since the beginning of the
war, and the leaders of the nation, who
should be devoting all their minds to de-
feating the enemy, are again to be dis
tracted by an internal feud and dissen,
sion"
The Graphic says: "once more the at
tempt to establish home rule has failed,
because, like previous home rule schemes,
it neither satisfies Irish sentiment nor
secures justice for Great Britain"

Editor Union Times:

Editor Union Times:
Some have been asking: Where Is
the Civic Leage? Waving the ques-
ton of friendliness in this inquiry, L
will say: The Civic League is right
here in your midst-and working, TOO.
We have done much in the past year,
and with the help and cooperation due
an organization of this kind more
could have been done, and more Will
be.
Through the efforts of one member,
trees have been put out where needed
ON Main street from the Baptlst
church to Mrs. Fant's home. The
tree spaid for by property holders,
labor furnished by city council.
One member contributed plants
from her own yard to fill and make a
bright attractive bed in the city park.
Another member gave from her gar
dens shrubbery and plants for the
grounds at the u. &, G.. S. railroad sta
ton. We distributed so dozen pack
ages of flower seed last spring; these
we're sent us by Congressman Lever
from Washington.
We stood behind Miss Smith, the
county demonstration agent, last
spring, enabling her to invite and en-
tertain the tomato club girls of the
county.
The city council, through Mayor
Wharton. has helped us when we have
called. which has been often. We are
now working in the park and in the
courthouse grounds. And all of this
bv lust a few members and with very
little money. We need the help of
every woman in the city. Contribu-
tions of plants, shrubbery or seed will
be gladly received and, placed in max
ing start towards a "City Beauti-
full" We invite our men friends to
be honorary members at $1.OO year
and desire their advice. Any woman
who can't work actively can aid us by
being honorary or paying members at
so cents a year. There is mucn to be
done.

Fruitola is a powerful lubricant for
the intestinal organs, softening the
congested masses, disintegrating the
hardened particles that cause so much
suffering and expels the accumulation
in an easy, natural way. Traxo is a
splendid tonic, acting on the liver and
stomach with most beneficial results
and is recommended for use in con-
