Other Cities Adopt Plan.

So enthusiastically has this plan for
solving the servant girl problem been re-
ceived in Washington that number Of
other cities are planning to make a
similar effort to promote efficiency by
pointing out good examples of industry
and devotion in the homes of the country.
Clubwomen in a number of other cities
have written to members of the Washin >
ton federation asking for information
about the campaign here. 1t is probable
that this matter will be taken up by the
National Federation and that there will
be a nationwide contest result of the
campaign now in progress here.
Because of the prospect of a national
campaign, the Washington clubwomen are
anxious to get the best possible record of
all the old domestics, that if there is
national contest the Washington servants
may be well represented. Those who have
seen the letters that have come in from
mistresses during this campaign say they
feel no doubt that Washington could carry
off honorS in national servant-girl con-
test.
When the list of entries is closed, No
vember 15, the tabulation will be COM
pleted Gas soon as possible) and a full
list printed of those who have been
found eligible for honors in each class.

Two Divisions in Contest.

There are two divisions of the contest
one for those long in service, to whom
prizes in gold will be awarded, and the
other for those who have been more than
five years in one place, and to whom GER
tificates will be issued, signed by the
federation officers. In the competition
for the gold coins four prizes have been
contributedN The first premium is a ten
dollar gold piece, offered by The Star.
This will be given to the domestic en-
pioye-man or woman-who has been for
the longest number of years employed in
one family in the District of Columbia
piece given to the servant remaining
longest with one mistress in Washington.
A suggestion was made today by a
prominent society woman that a dis
tinction be made between those who
were born into a family as slaves and
remained in service ever since and
those who voluntarily entered service.
This distinction will be considered by
the committee of club women at the
net meeting.
Another prominent woman who is
acquainted with most of the old capital
families volunteered her services to-
day to assist in classifying the letters
of Endorsement that have been re-
ceived- This is very valuable contri-
button of personal service because it
saves the committee the big task of
looking up all cases where the Wri1er
OF the letter is not personally known
to them.

Capital City Well Represented in
The Professional Minor Leagues
twenty-five Local Ball Tossers
Earned Livelihood Last Sum-
mer in Fast Company.
FOUR IN CLASS AA
By JOHN A. DUGAN.

Twenty-Five local athletes who learned
to ulay the national pastime on the sand
lots of this city earned their livelihood
last summer in the professional baseball
ranks. Not one of this quarter hundred
Of ball tossers donned a big league uni
form but in nearly every instance they
have given promise of some day rising
to the top of the ladder.
Although none of the prides Of the Cap
itai City was ready for or good enough
Johnsons and Tener's big tents. a quar-
tet of experts was found among the top
liners in the Class AA. leagues. This
quartet includes Johnny Priest, who held
down the keystone sack for Rochester of
the International League; Johnny Beall.
who played the sun field for the Mil
waukee team of the American Associa-
tion; Joseph Geibel. catcher for the Kan
sas City club of the same circuit; and
our own and very promising Joe Engel,
pitcher for Mike Cantillon's Minneapolis
Millers.
OF the above quartet named, Beall had
the best season, playing one hundred and
ffty-four games, in which he smacked
the old horse hide for a .334 average and
played his position to figures which read
es2. Priest went fairly well with the
New York State club, having a batting
record of .52 and handled SIT chances
with but q errors.
Joe Geibel did not set the American
Association afire with his fence-busting
but the Kansas City fans ranked him
as one OF the best receivers in the as
sociation and will be glad to see Joe
back on the job this spring.
Joe EngeI is the only local athlete who
Is given credit for breaking into the
major league line-ups. but in the eleven
games in which Joe toed the mound he
failed to be credited with a victory or
a defeat. In batting against the big
league hurlers, Engel Is not credited
with any percentage as he failed to
place one safe in the six trips to the
plate with which he Is credited.
In the Association Joe annexed
five victories for Cantillon's Millers
but to date he has failed to cause the
pitchers in that circuit any worry
with his big stick"
Austin A. Howard. of Cornell Uni
versity fame, was the wonder of the
local pros. ArtIe jumped the Lawrence
club of New England State League
last spring to cast lots with Lee Ma
gee, Brooklyn Federals. Masee played
Howard in twenty games but because
of some little misunderstanding, Aus
tin received his release early in July
and hit the trail south. catching on
