HOIYOKE WANTS CLUB.

Ho1yoke is very anxious to get
franchise in the Eastern league. Secre-
tary Gpyne of the Chamber of Com
mercsf of that city, has notified Presi-
dent Dan O'Neil of his intention to be
present at the league meeting tomor-
row afternoon in Boston when he Will
speak on behalf of Holyoke. The
Holyoke man says there is a plan on
foot to sell 10000 season tickets at
reduced prices.
Holyoke should be about ripe for
league baseball again. There was
always bitter rivalry between that
city and Springfield and the attend
ance, when the club was properly
managed, was good. If the league
magnates wish to have compact cir
cult and cut down railroad expenses,
Holyoke would he a much better city
than either Portland or Lawrence. AS
they have already bound themselves
to include Portland and Lawrence.
however, it looks as if the magnatfs
will have to turn down Ho1yoke.

book fundamental Divine Science by
the Discoverer and Founder of Chris

she describes it "as the law OF God.
the law OF good. interpreting and dem

noted that universal harmony in
his definition is the ultimate and its
