"In the first place, you must remember that the Amanita phalloldes, or deadly agaric, closely resembles the Agarlcus campestrls. or edible fungus, which la our common variety aud absolutely In nocuous. Next, It will be necessary to tlx firmly In your inlml the distinguish Ing marks or characteristics of the Agarlcus canipestris, which are these: A plleus not covered with excrescence like scales; gills of a brownish purple when mature; stalk solid and approxi mately cylindrical; ring near the mid dle of stalk; base not bulbous and not sheathed by membrane. The distin guishing characteristics of the Amanita pballoldes, or deadly agaric, are these: IMleus destitute of distinct excres cences; white gills, hollow stalk; large ring aud prominent bulb at base, with membranous npper margin.

The M. W. A. All Star football team has Iwen strengthened by Coach Mc- Caskrin bv the addition of three new players who have distinguished them selves in past encounters on the grid iron and the entire team meets for signal practice every evening in pre paration for the Thanksgiing game with the Armour institute. Arthur .lens, of this city plays fullback on the iilstitute team, and his brother Uoy plays fullback on the local team.

To .Meet Davenport. Every player on the high school football team is husbanding every energy, concentrating every facility in preparation for the game with Davenport high school in the latter city next Thursday. The boys are aware they have great odds to over come, but not one on the team or among the substitutes but is court ing the hoM of victory for ::11 that is in him. To the disadvantage in weight the local team will have to contend with the added handicap of being in the enemy's territory. The enthusiasts who have been watching the local team this season hope it will at least be able tit dupli cate its showing against Moline in the last game and thus leave the schools for the three cities on a practical equality as the result of the season's work. This, if it can be accomplished, considering the inuke up of the three teams, will have all the trimmings of a victory for Kock Island.

The following was . adopt ed at last week's meeting of the Three-1 league in Chicago: At a meeting of representatives of all minor baseball leagues in the I'nited States, held at Chicago on the 'th day of September, 19)l. prelimin nry steps were taken toward the or ganization of the National Associa lion of Professional Haseball leagues by the election of P.

"Whereas, at the first meeting of Ihe National Association Kaschall leagues, held at the Fifth Avenue ho tel. New York City, on the 24th tlav of October. UMI1, the acts of the meeting of Sept. Cth, at Chicago, were ratified and approved by a unanimous vote, and the association put upon n firm and substantial ba sis, by the adoption of a 10-vear agreement by the representatives of every minor league in the I'nited States (with one exception), as well as by the representatives from a majority of the individual club mem bers of the various leagues, then and there present and participating in fhe prH-cedings. Therefore, 1m? it Kesolved, That the Illinois, Iowa and Indiana league Itaseball clubs. in annual convention assembled, do hereby express our appreciation of the importance of said movement. ami the far-reaching influence of the future nets of said association in its conduct of the affairs of the national game, and herewith pledge our cor dial and earnest support of the of ficers of the National association, and express our intention to comply. both in letter and spirit, with all of the provisions of the new national agreement, and with the decisions and rulings of its officers and the na tional board of arbitration, and ! it further "Resolved, That, in President P.

Athletic Notes. Inn Mnmane. writing in the Chi cago Record-Herald yesterday, says: "A word for the minor leagues. Trouble is bound to crop up here and there untij the machinery gets to working properly, and even then there often will- be cases for th or ganization to decide. The only trou ble so far has been in the Western asoeiat ion, where one or two men have decided to pull out, as they think they can belter themselves. Even this is not a difficult problem to solve. The minors will naturally seek to strengthen their different leagues as best they can, :n-l I am sure all will work out on the lines mapped out at their nieetin.- in New York. The National association is bound to live and remain bigger than any opposition from within or with out. The president of every club-in every minor league should take a deep interest in this move."
