The magnates of the va- rious leagues agreed to give him full power when they incorporated in the document a clause reading thus:
 '.In case conduct detrimental to baseball Is charged, alleged or sus- pected, the commissioner Gandis) shall have jurisdiction to inTesti- gate and determine the facts; upon such determination he may take such preventive, remedial or punitive action as he deems appropriate, against any party hereto, any minor league club connected with the National associa- tion, or any individual, as the case may be-"

MANY BIRDS AVOID IRELAND
Species That Are Common In England
Are Not to Be Found In the
Emerald Isle.

One Of the curious features OF Wild
life In Ireland is the absence OF some
Of the birds best known In England.
The nightingale. for instance. Is never
found In Ireland. while the wood
warbler. the retlstnrt, all the species
of wOOdpecker. the wryneck, the nut
hatch and several other kinds ARE Sc
rare that they are unknown to the
great majority Of the people. There
seems to be no very obvious reason
for the absence Of these birds. II may.

grafton along which the birds travel
for most Of those mentioned above are
not residsat in Britain all the year.
But II is certainly strange that such
bird. for Instance, us the common
whitethrOat, should thrive everywhere
In ireland. while the lesser variety Is
unknown. and that while the willow
warbler, Is one Of the cninm0nest Of
summer birds its larger relative. the

places and In very few numbers. Ire
