BY "GILL."

The Valley league, the live little
baseball organization made up last
year of Mimic Cavalier, Park River
and Grafton, will open it's season on
Decoration Day, May 80. Prepare
tons are under way for opening with
a big celebration in two cities and
indications are that as good baseball
as was played last year, and that is
saying much, will be played this sea-
son.
At a recent meeting DR.. j. e. Gal.
braith of Cavalier was elected presi'
dent, and WalstrOm of Park River,
secretary-treasurer. The league rules
provide this season that three play
efs may be hired, the rest must be
local men.
1t is not known at this time wheth-
err Mimic will be in the league or
not, but if that city is not in, Crystal
will undoubtedly fill the place left
vacant. However, according to DR..
Rove, who is handling the affairs OF
the team there, prospects are good
there, and the work of organizing a
team is under way. Several players
are being correesponded with and
most of the old men will return
Open at Cavalier.
Park River will open the season at
Cavalier with double-header. That
club is dickering with two of its last
year players and has wealth of ma.
terial to draw from with practically
all the old local players ready to be
gin playing. Spornitz will be back on
the mound and he is looked on to dup
licate his performances Of last year.
A pitcher and catcher who were
mainstays last season and being
sought an diff terms can be agreed on
they will be signed. ...
Two Strong Pitchers.
Cavalier will have two strong pitch
ers in Bremen and Norton. Bremen
went to that city last year, following
the .disbanding of the Grand Forks
team in the Northern league and he
will probably act as playing manager.
Norton is southpaw who has work

Next week, Cecil Spooner and her company, to which there will be sew -era1 specially added numbers, will be seen in a four act realistic comedy drama of genuine, ruggedt Arizona life, also ref1exes of fashionable, high so- ciety realms Of New York city, and is entitled The Girl from GoIdf1e1d,'' the dramatization of which. was c1ev- erly constructed by Homer Miles, from a story of the same nams by Cecil Spooner- In the play form, it is claimed to be the most nvigOra6ing play of western life and character the stage has presented in some years

SCORING DEVICE MAY : PROVE HFJP p TO PIKER
 GAMBLERS IN BOSTON

Attention has been called in the public prints to g device installed at the Boston Red <Sox park, by which the operator in charge of the electric scoreboard keeps in touch with the official scorer and whenever, there is a question Faised as to whether a player makes a hit or a fielder an er- TOT, the official scorer settles the ar gument- If batted ball goes as a hit a, big letter H is flashed up in plain sight of the crowd. If in the scorers Judgment an error should be charged, the letter E is charged.
 It is claimed that this innovation is a forward step but we are not so sure of that, writes Ralph S. Davis in the Pittsburgh Press. It is true that sometimes the fans are in doubt as to whether a batsman has been credited with a hit or not, but a general sthing each spectator settles that matter in his own mind, and does not care a great deal at the time what the official scorer may have to say about it
 As matter of fact, the Boston clubs new device is of great benefit only to the gamb1ers-the petty bet makers who wager anywhere from two bits to a dollar that this or that player singles Boston has for years been a hotbed of baseball gambling, and the Boston club is aiding them in this way, rather than hinder their op- erationS-

1S94-Bob FitzsimmOnS and Joe fought 5 round draw at Boston This bout was one of the many in which F'itz's wonderful re- powers saved him from what seemed certain defeat The big California Jew had a ferocious punch, and in the third round he landed 1t full on Bob's jaw. The freckled feI- low toppled, over as if he had been kicked by a mule, and any other scrapper would have stayed down. Fitz got up in just the nix of time to save his baon- After that Fitz had matters pretty much his own way and Choynsk was about done for when the cops entered the ring and broke up the festivities in the 9th round. Un- der an arrangement previously made regarding possible official tnterfer- books as a draw Two years before that at New Orleans Peter Maher stretched Bob on his back in the sec ond round, and it seemed that all was over but the shouting by the Irish mans supporters. Old sFreckles got up in time and after that gave Maher such a beating that he quit in the 18th round When Fitz fought Cor bett inl 1897 "Gent1eman.
