But baseball is always more or less
a hazardous gamble. This question was
discussed with a Western league mag
nate some time ago, and he was asked
why it is that the Western league club
owners, knowing conditions in their
towns as they do, permit the league to
run on year after year with half the
clubs, or more, losing money every
year when the application of a little
business efficiency and a little Co
operation would make a large per cent
of the clubs money makers every year.

STOVE ExPtoDEs IN
 MCCORMICK RESIDENCE

DOUGLAS. Jan. 22.-The home of oichard Mccormick this morning was he scene of another stove explosion. t happened at an early hour. Mrs. Mccormick was engaged In preparing breakfast. and 1t seems a stroke of ,rovidential luck that she was not eriously injured. Just moment be- ore the explosion she had stood just where the greatest force seemed to .trlke. a large piece of the stove hav- Ing been driven through one of the walls at that point. However Mrs. Mccormick had just walked across he room, when she heard the noise md the room was filled with smoke, team and ashes to such an extent hat 1t was impossible to see any hing for O few minutes. Two win lows were blown out. and minor in- uries to the walls was all the dam ,ge done, but 1t Is a miracle that he house was not burned as well. The stove was a comDlete wreck.
 There seems no doubt that the ex- ,losion was the result of steam form 'ng in the pipes of the hot water coils nd being prevented from evnanding m account of the frozen condition of he water.
