Darkness fell. The dying man was
laid on a rude bed within one cabin.
and old Joel lay on the floor close TO
the door. The stranger lad refused
TO sleep indoors and huddled him

one corner Of TIE stockade. Men.

stopped short on the threshold. The

over his head. was stamping around

Orlando Baked
in Attempt to
Buy a Pennant

President Rose applied the "Big
Stick with vengeance in the Flor
ida State League. Such deals as tho
Giant Brave and Yankee Red Sox
ones do not go down In Florida and
the State League boss was out to prove
1t.
The Orlando club was making a
great fight for the pennant OF the
second half but were being goutclassel
by the ST. Petersburg entry. There
fore on the last day set for inter-
league trading of players the Bull
Dogs made deal with the tail-end
Lakeland club whereby OutfleIder
Stewart and Pitcher Lucas of the
Highlanders would wear Orlando uni
forms during the rest Of the season.
THE Lakeland nlagnates recsive1 Out
fielder O'Brien and a lot of cash for
the two players. Lakeland was in the
cellar and did not haVs a single
chance for the bunting SO the money
was a great inducement for that club.
The deal was put across and 1t
seemed that Orlando had the old f.ag
clnched. Not SO. President Rose in
vestigated the rules and discovered
that this deal was against all laws
and ethics Of the National Associa-
ton. Moreover it was rumored :hat
Orlando has merely borrowed"
Stewart and Lucas from Lakeland and
would return them in some manner
at the close of the season.
It was also brought to light thai
Orlando had used Higgins, pitcher
who has played forty or more games
in the South Atlantic League and was
therefore q class man. Each team
in the Florida State League IS limited
to two class men. Orlando had
two already, Catcher Wells and First
Baseman Burke, so that the addition
of Higgins was against the rules of
the league.
After investigating the matter thor
oughly President Rose announced that
all games won by Orlando In which
Stewart and Lucas played were
thrown out and ordered that these two
players be returned to Lakeland. Sew
eral games won by the Bulldogs In
which Higgins pitched were also put
into the lost column of that club. st.
then led Orlando by several
games and the latter team had not
chance to win the second half.
