4 EDDIE SICKING is said to have a
L great deal more pep this season
than he displayed during the lasi
Z baseball campaign. This is very like
~ the result Of his experience with
the army.
Hunter Goodbred. the young right
handler who has been training with
the Robins, has received plenty TO do
at the training camp. He should be
able TO stand a lot Of hard work as
weights about 22o pounds. Because OF
his treat bulk the players have
dubbed him Tiny"

his arm cnrefuIIy and. under
orders from HuEEins, has taken

box from the beginning Of the
season.
In the recent death Of Digger stan

champions. the ring has lost another
of its famous characters. Digger sue
cumbed TO stomach trouble in a Lon

very few champions to win the Lord
Lousdale belt three times in success

possession Of the trophy. Stanley paid
a visit TO this country in 1871 and

boxer, knowing little about might

BASEBALL WARS OF THE PAST
The baseball season viii open short
ly under peaceful auspices, but It was
not always thus. as old timers can
testify, while even the Federal
league has not been dead sol ong as
TO be entirely forgotten
The National league. father OF all
the leagues, was organized in 1876
and held the field without opposition
for several years. The old Internd-
tinnal league, founded in 1877. and lie
successor, the National association,
launched in 1879. had circuits that
did not conflict with the older or
ganization, and the same was true
of the Eastern association Of 1881
and the American association Of 1852
phia and New York. which had been
expelled from the National league at
the close OF its first season and the
American association was represented
in Cincinnati. St Louis and Louisville.
which cities had been charter mem
hers Of the National league but had
been dropped
IN 1888 the National league put
teams in New York and PhilldeI-
phia. and in that year the Metro
politans played in the American
association, New York thus being
the first city TO have two major
league clubs.
The first real baseball war broke
out in 1854. when the outlaw" Union
association started with a circuit com
posed Of Baltimore, Philadelphia,
Washington. Altoona. Chicago. Cincin-
natl and St Louis. This was one Of
the most disastrous seasons, financial
~. in the history OF the game. Three
of the Union association clubs went
on the rocks. and were replaced by
Kansas City. Milwaukee and St Paul
After that came q period OF peace
but in 1880 the Brotherhood war

Manager Mitchell Thinks
Team Much Improved;
Baseball Prosperous.

Manager Fred Mitchell, Of the Chi
cago Cubs. 1913 champions OF the Ma

we can't tell much about the race
yet but there is no team that figures
stronger than the Cubs on paper said
manager Mitchell at the Paso del
NOrte Monday. "The New York Giants.

practically the same club that con
tested for the 1918 worlds champion

pauying this team
Asked about the American LEAGUE
race. manager Mitchell declared that
In his opinion there were four clubs in
the running Boston, Chicago. New

the manner in which these four teams

Washington. May 21.-National suffrage
for women was endorsed by the House
of Representatives for the second time
to-day when the Susan B. Anthony
amendment resolution was adopted by a
vote of 304 to SO. Supporters of the meas
ure Immediately arranged to carry their
fight to the Senate where although twice
defeated at the last session they are
confident of obtaining the necessary two
thirds vote.
The victory for the suffrage forces to-
day was AZ votes more than the required
two-thirds. On the previous ballot on the
resolution, cast January TO- 1918, exactly
the necessary number of affirmative votes
were recorded.
House leaders of both parties in the
brief debate preceding to-day's vote urged
favorable action but many southern
democrats opposed the measure as did
several New England republicans.
The favorable vote was more by IA
than would have been necessary had all
members of the House been present.
The political division Of the votes showed
that 900 republicans. 102 democrats. one
independent and one prohibitionist voted
for adoption, while the negative poll
showed 70 democrats and 10 republicans.
Speaker Gillett, who voted against the
resolution on previous ballots, did not
vote to-day.
Efforts of opponents to amend the
| resolution were unavailing. Representa-
tive Clark of Florida, leader of the oppo-
sition, proposed that the States ratifica-
