Il think the Prince of Wales is too

Duke of Dos Cabezas.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 1.-The Pa

graphed tonight to Commissioner X.
Nj. Lands to learn whether his de-
cision ordering William H. Keeper
and James Brewster owners OF the
Portland club suspended from official
connection from organized baseball,
meant that the league cauld have no
dealings with the Portland club as
long as Keeper remained its presi-
dent.
The directors representing the Oak
land, Los Angeles and Salt Lake clubs
agreed to abide by Lands ruling, al
though they believed Keeper was en-
titled to remain in office, but Gus
Moser, representing Portland, said he
would appeal to the courts if the COM
missioner's answer was unfavorable.

know the cutest little fella named
George, but he amt king. Wouldn't
it be nice TO write home and say;
'Al's pa, King George, took Al and me
to Piccadilly last night to see the
circus" Piccadilly is where they have
the circuses, amt it or is it?
"Oh, Mr.. Reporter, don't you think
that when the prince gets elected king
he could hold court in Johnson Addi-
ton once in a while? And would he
have to bother in his court with the
awful old guys who get pinced for
driving flivvers without lights? 1 bet
cha the court of st. James is a bear.
Who is St. James, the princes uncle
or something?
"Of course, please don't say that
I'm willing to marry the prince yet;
because, you know, l amt seen him.
The picture you run of him sure
caught my eye, though, but l wouldn't
want to say I'd marry him until |
danced with him, because if | said |
would be willing to be Mrs. Prince,
and then he'd come over here and I'd
turn him down he'd be awfully disap-
pointed, wouldn't he?"
Yes, Susis, we fear he would. But
here's your picture, anyhow. If the
prince wants you for a wife, and if
his pa and ma and Lloyd George
George are willing, well persuade
Johnson Addition to give you up.
Aha, Here's another candidate with
a photo. Well, we'll! If it isn't Phiz-

through dilatory tactics, when it ap-
peared that rain would interrupt the

The grounds were a quagmire after
a. commute rain which came down in
torrents in the first half of the fifth,
when the Yankees had two men on
and one out. A corps of men with
sawdust, gasoline and brooms tried to
get the diamond in condition, but
failed. Faber was working in fine
