Everything Is Over, the Base

Things for the Coming Season.

II TERE we are IN the middle OF

magnatcs who have been meet
ing here in New York for n couple OF
weeks the baseball situation for the
coming season is all over The
schedules for the year Will be ou;
Tuesday or Wednesday and all that
remains is the donning OF uniforms
along about Aprl % and the crowds
win flock in. Very simple. isn't it7
II has been ever thus. Tie ball
players play their heads off. 70 the
Precipitation standpoint, for 81 much
per and then the magnates step in.
None OF them could hit the side OF a
house with bat, stu they become
the whole works when tho game ar
rives at showdown. They decide
low many foul balls constitute "a
strike; they decide whether or not .
pitcher makes q balk. and what not.
Only last week a few OF tho National
League magnatCs came TO tho con
clusiun that they ought to limit the
salaries of the players who actually
make the game. They are not max
ing enough money. " seems,
Everybody jumped on that PROPOSE
ton so hard that these bail club
owners came TO their senses jdst
about early enough to save tho Ma
tlonal League from rClcgat!on TO the
minors. TO our mind, the National
League has been a minor organization
for some time. IL doesn't win the

II II were not for New York. and
possibly Chicago. the National
League would be of-sccondary con-
sideration. Both tfse cities have
striven hard to make the game n
matter of baseball supremacy and
lfave kept interest in their annual
races alive. The Giants have always
been there or thcreabouts. whilo the
Yankees, HiChldnders, or whatever
they may be called, are usually
Dragging in the rear.
This leads TO the conclusion that
the Giants are the mainstay OF the
older league, and in opposition OF all
arrangements OF their governing body
they still remain so. Why? McGraw,
that's all. He knows more baseball
in n minute than all the maEna'es put
together will ever know. for the rea-

Ellen S. Cameron


Ellen S. Cameron, aged 81 years,
7 months and 26 days, died Feb. Is,
1919, at the home of her daughter,
Mrs. Eugene F. Hall, 102 Downing
street, Worcester, Mass. She was
born in Hartland, daughter of Ansel
and Lucretia (Harrington) Hoadley.
She leaves son, Charles f. of Med
ford, Mass, and three daughters
Mrs. O. A. Grow of Orleans, Mrs.
Carrie N. Williams of West Rutland,

]. Hoadley of West Rutland. Mrs.
Cameron has been living the past few
weeks with her daughter, Mrs. Hall,
in Worcester, Mass. She has been in
failing health for year past, and
death came to her not unexpectedly
Mrs. Cameron was woman of unus-
ual personality. Although she passed
her Saith year some time ago, until
very recently she showed all the
energy of one much younger in years.
She was of that happy disposition
that made a wide circle of friends
wherever she happened to be. Re
tanning all her faculties to the last,
showing an interest in everything
around her. She will be missed by all
whom she associated with in life.
She passed from this life with smile
to those she was leaving here, and we
believe she will be waiting to greet
her loved ones with smile of well
come when they are called home.
There is no death, it's merely transit
ton. The burial took place at Rut-
land in Evergreen cemetery, Rev. E.
d.. Face, officiating. The bearers
were L. J. Hoadley, C. F. Hoadley,
E. F. Hall, w. S. Haines. The beau
tiful floral tributes included pieces
from Robert Relief Corps, Phyllis
Chapter, Order of the Eastern Star,
friends and relatives The Eastern
