Friday evening an earnest company
Of workingmen met at the home of

Mems Brotherhood Sunday School
Class. The idea is to have a class
composed of men who have not been
attending Sunday School regularly or
at all. Another meeting is scheduled
for Friday evening September 22nd,
ut the same place. ! If you are the
average honest working man you will
be interested in this class.

The first ball war of any conse-

after the National League and the
American Association. which then ran

has just been ended. cost all told APP

recognized statisticians of the game
No previous baseball war has been so
costly nor even half so expensive TO

The Federal League, il is estimated,
went through S2,50O.OOO in the three
years Of It's existence. Part Of this
perhaps $500. 0.00O-the heaviest losers

In settling with the late third
leaguers and through expenditure and
losses in various forms during the
fight with the Federals. Organized
Ball, II is estimated. was soaked for
S1.5O0O00 by the war. This. with
the Federars net loss Of S20O0,000
makes the aggregate S3,500,00O, which
went to contractors and builders
players, railroads, lawyers and even
newspapers and other advertising
media, in which some Federal League
clubs. at one stage of the fight, IN

he won something like three games
