The decline in Major League Attendance from the outset can be charged to these three fac tors.
 1. The cold weather.
 ?. The well known economic sit- uation, and
 3. The sharp curtailment of An- nie Oakleys.
 m The magnates hardly can be ex- pected to do anything about the first two items, although the, sug- gestion of President Heydler of the National League that the sea son be delayed two weeks, in the hopes of outwitting the weather had been debated pro-and-con.
 They might just as well save their breath. for there is no more assurance that the weather will be good the latter part of April than that the worlds series wont run afoul of storm in October
 It might be safer, on the aver age, .o shorten the season at eith- CT end, but, the magnates don't fancy this idea, either.
 As to the economic situation the club owners have done about all that can. be expected for the time being, short of reducing the price of admission They contend of course that these prices were not lhoisted during boom times but that won't help the prospective customer who might be willing now to part with 25 or 50 cents but can't meet the tariff of 7s cents or a dollar.
 CAN'T SPEND GOOD WILL" The slashing of the complimen- tary ticket list probably is all for the best. The clubs may lose some good will, but no cash on this ac- count. This variety of sports chis- cling has gotten trifle out oi hand in recent years.
 On opening days alone, close to l0OOO free tickets have been dis tributed by the Giants and Yan- kees in former years. The absence of these this year accounts fol the sharpegt part of the decline ir turnouts for the starting ceremon- feS.

Inhabitants of the 40-tank aquarium

Our fish are fed on beef hearts and

"A good hungry fish may eat almost
l cents worth of beef heart in week,
Mr.. Leach explained. The largest fish
in the aquarium cost the Government
in food each year about SIS cents, 1t was
estimated.
A haul of common minnows recently
was received at the aquarium, and OIL
cials reported that when a few were
placed in one OF the big trout tanks the
trout shared their ration of beef liver
with them. However, when a few were
placed in the frog tank they diSap-

The frogs are newcomers to the aqua

ends 81 100000 Libel Suit.

ATLANTIC CITY, N. j., May IT,
Deets Pickett of the Methodist Board
Of Temperance, Prohibition and Public
Morals, yesterday characterized as "ln-
speakable" charges made by Represent
ative Tinkham of Massachusetts, in
making a formal demand for grand
jury presentation of alleged perjury
evidence against Pickett.
In his reply to Tinkham's charge
Pickett said he had instituted an in
vestigation into the shipment in ques-
ton and had complete evidence that
the packages, for which Tinkham said
he had photoStatic copies of waybills
contained nothing whatever belonging
to the Board of Temperance or any
of its employees"
The waybills. Pickett said, belonged
to Morris E. Schwartz, who shipped
certain property of his own to Balti-
more for storage" This property
Pickett said, had been stored in the
basement Of the temperance headquar-
tiers from 1926 until 1880 and the pack
ages containing 1t are now in Baltimore
unopened.
Pickett assailed Tinkham for spread
ing "a charge of crime against repu-
table citizen without one iota of proof
and without permitting q full oppor-
tunity to receive an explanation" He
said he planned to investigate Tink-
hams statement, and II he found it was
not privileged by congressional immun-
ity, he would institute suit against
Tinkham for $1,000, 900 for libel.
