H 8 THE SALT LAKE TRIBUNE, MONDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 22, 1909. I iiir" 1 ltcl MONTANA AND IDAHO fOR TRI-STATE BALL Y-USfi I BASEBALL FEVER I STRiKESJONTANA Fans Arc Elated Over Prospects of an Interotonntain I SEEMS TO BE THE ONLY SOIUTION OP SPORT H, H Magnates Make a Hit Because H ' They Ask No Aid From H Business Men. The Butte Miner gives the following glowing account of the proposed Jnter mountain Baseball league, which is at the present time considered a euro go. Tho advance guard of tho league Is In HH Butto W. H, Lucas, president of the Jsorthwcst league; "Con" Strouthcrs, an 1 old baseball man who has been In the ame ever since ho put on knee breeches; John S. Barnes, a man who has given all of his life to clean sporting affaire, and Jack Grim, well known and beloved by those of Buitc fans who know him. Mr. Lucas feels kindly toward Butto. i He seems to feel as if Butto fans wore not In favor of his coming in with this proposition of a league, in view of the fact that Butto was this year left out of the Northwest league. Mr. Lucas must not think he- is blamed for this. 1 for it is not thought ho had any idea of 1 leaving Butte out even had ho the au thorlty to do so. All that has been said regarfling Mr. Lucas is that ho might not make a success of such a league, with no intention of discouraging such a proposition, onlj- so far as local finan tial support might go. Zion Is Eager. Mr. Lucas says that Salt Lako is eager for this league. Mr. Barnes was greeted Hll by everybody In Boise from the mayor Hra down, or up. just as one wants to con W Fldr that official, and tho fans to a man H have agreed to boost the game there to the utmost. Jack Flnnnery and a lot of prominent sporting men in Helena, It Is --aid, are enthusiastic abojit the project, and Great Falls and MVoula are expect cd to fall in line. If all these places frame up, It moans that tho leugue will he- composed of Butte. Boise, Salt Lake. Missoula, Helena and Great Falls. This y'lll not be a bad circuit at all If it sticks, and the promoters feel It will, j Mrouthcrs will be the Butte manager. .ind so far "Con" has made a pretty favorable Impression with the fans witti whom he has talked. A Real Sportsman. Mr. Barnes Is highly enthusiastic about Uoise, and. In fact, the whole league. A sportsman of the highest class, a man of varied and long experience, he lends an air of responsibility to the proposed league that will help a whole lot. Many will remember the Johnny Barnes of foot-l-aelng fame. That's the same Barnes, onlv he Is carrying his increased years as.' lightly as if he wan still on the cinder path. He is a man of money. Influenco and ability. Ite has made good in every thing he has tackled, and he Is as en thuKlasiic about this league as a young tcr yet, he says, and looks It. Railroad rates are just now an Import ant detail of arrangement, but It Is ex pected that all these matters will soon he settled. There wore a lot of people looking for "Xuko," as the president of the North j "west league is familiarly called In Butte. However, he Is in earnest and sincere about the new league; he wants to give Butte and the other cities a good quality j of ball, and thinks that it is a shame to allow a town like Butte to be without the best that can be furnished. , Good Ball Promised. "You mustn't think that this or any other team In the circuit will be 'cheap' simply because it may be scheduled in -a. D class. Butte and tho other cities will be given as good a quality of base hall as can be furnished anywhere and J am sure If given a chance Strouthcrs will show you that he will have a team second to none around this part of tho worid. I feci sure that Salt Lake, Helena and tho other towns will agree that we arc not asking for much moro than a chance to indicato what wo can and will do; all we want is an oppor tunity, but we expect at leant a chance to 'show our goods. " Boise in Line. ' Yesterday a message was received by Mr. Barnes from Boise Indicating that slnco his departure the fans are talcing D Kteps to insure a representation in the HQ league and will insist on it to the extent Hl of moral and financial support. Jack Hl Flnnnery also wired from Helana asking I that tho magnates visit that city as soon HH . as possible and they will probably go over H ' tonight. Hfl Tho Idaho Statesman, published In H .Boise, has the following which will lndi- Hfl ct0 tno feeling there: HI "John S.

HH "There is one thing certain that there H will be an intermountain league and It's II ' up to Boise to get It. It would be a II measly shame to let tho thing slip through now with a man in Boise ready I to put the club In here at his own cx- Hl pense. taking his chances on the gato rcT 1 f flpts." salo a well known fan, "If the public can afford to do anything It should I sec that Mr. Barnen is furnished a 1 ground. In Salt Lake the diamond i Hflj presented to Jack Grim. Tho same Is I i true in Butte, but Boise is not aked to give anything. Just show the proper Jl spirit and boost." Hl On Sound Basis. Hl The Intermountain league will be or- ganlzcd on a sound financial basis. Each club will deposit $1,000 with the president, who will, bo Mr. Lucas, president of the HI Northwest league, as a guarantee that It finish the season. Aside from this di-posit there will be created what Is known as a sinking fund. A per cent HH of each day's gate receipts will be put in HI "nJ and if late In Hip season a team IH is not making its expense the managc- ment will be required to stav in the M lacue in order to get Its money in tho I sinking fund at the close of the season. H This will be a strong assurance that each club will stay in the league, as the Sl.Onn M plus the sinking fund, nay 20 per cent of each day's receipts, will be a nice little sum at the close of a five-months' soason. I Mr. Barnes is here with the statement HM1 that he will have a club one, two or thrc HMf ln the race. There Is every reason to be- lievo that this will bo true, for Barnes HHH has won a bnrrel full of pennants In his HUH day. Mayor Encourages Plan.

The buffalo hunt on Antelope island Sunday morning brought forth many thrilling adventures to the small party after tho bison. According to a messen ger sent to the city In the afternoon, the herd could not be gotten in range and not a shot had been fired during the fore noon. The buffalo were chased over tho mountains and through the small ! valleys on the island, and it appeared j an all-day Job. In the afternoon one of John H. White's sons got a bead on a big bull and dropped the buffalo, piercing the animal's heart by a 200-yard shot from a 30-30 rlfi. Tho remainder of the herd again took to the hills, and. no mat ter how the hunters planned, they seemed to be unable to get within ranco again. The party was to return Sunday after noon with the buffalo carcasses, but are now forced to remain over until today, or until the other bull Is killed. Glosz, the furrier, having purchased the two bulls. Tbe bison, ordinarily, are tame, but upon sight of the hunters seemed to re member the previous- hunt, and became very wild.

The first thing Mr. Barnes told the men was that he wasn't here for money and that Imme diately made a hit. The Boise merchants have "ever been loyal to baseball clubs, but thev have been paying for losing proposition for so long that they scare at bonus basball propositions.

SPORTSMEN SHOOT II SEVERE WINDSTORM Targets Are Hard to Hit and Scores Drop Far Below Average. The bluerock and rifle shooting at the club grounds Sunday was not what could be called pleasure. There was about a thirty-mile an hour cold wind blowing out of Red Butte canyon directly across tho shooting grounds, and at times the trap men had difficulty In standing up to shoot Tho riflemen shot out of their clubhouse, but tho trap-shooters stood in the open. John Hoefllng, one of tho best bluerock shooters In the club, was unable to con nect with the targets in the fierce gale, and MeGanney. who seldom breaks be low 40 in 50 targets, did not even securo half. Schefskl seemed to enjov the wind, breaking 24 out of his last 2o tar gets. C. T. Letchfleld said that the riflemen moved their sights three points windward, the wind carrying the bullet twenty-one Inches from the center of the target in 200 yards. Notwithstanding this big dis advantage, several bullseyes were scored , by the marksmen. Bowles was Initiated in trap shooting and did well. Tho trap scores were as follows: Targets 25 25 Broke Schefskl 17 24 41 Hoefllng 14 19 33 Prlngle 13 15 2S Young 10 14 24 MeGanney 13 10 23 Bowles 4 711 The Individual rifle scores wero as fol lows : Letchfleld 76 71 74 S3 7275 Van Arnam 71 72 73 70 .. 74 HIrschvogcl 63 68 64 5S 71 65 Taylor 6." 64 61 64 ..64 Benton 44 03 49 .. ..53 West -r-61 FOURSOME NOT POPULAR WITH GOLF PLAYERS As a matter of practical experience tho foursome Is obviously a dead issue. There ard 50 four-ball matches played on tho links today for every foursome and, con sequently, no matter what, may bo said In Its favor, the more fact that it is sel dom played should convince anybody of Its lack of popularity. Loyalty to the traditions of tho sport In which the four ball match is seldom, if ever, mentioned, may Influenco some people to favor tho "foursome," but the game, from a prac tical golfing standpoint, has nothing to recommend It. and those who think It holds a peculiar fitness for team play aro merely mistaken. To extond tho actlvo principle of "foursome" as a special means of team competition, a system by which an entire side of ten men could play, one ball would be logically moro correct. The pleasures of such a chaso would be purely Intellectual. About three strokes an hour would be the maximum of effort required from tho contending players, and after making a shot on tho third green, a man could stroll over to tho sixth and take a nap while waiting for his next turn. If the "foursome" Is team play, why not the "tencome?" If, as some men perhaps foolishly believe, golf is primarily played for pleasure and healthful athletic exercise, any systom by which effort is minimized Is wrong; and no matter what tho theorists may do or say. tho old-time game is doomed to extinction except for use in mixed matches. TENNESSEE TO ALLOW TEN-ROUND BOUTS Special to The Tribune. MEMPHIS, Feb. 21. After passing all sorts of reform measures, causing fight promoters to loso hope for amendment of the present drastic laws prohibiting prize lighting and sparring matches of all forms, the lower house of the Tennessee legislature surprised everybody by over whelmingly voting to permit ten-round contests, with six-ounce gloves, before chartered clubs. The scnaUi is counted on by those be hind the movemejat. and Gov. Patterson Is an avowed friend of scientific boxing. The game has been dead in this state eight years, and now, by tho new law, decisions will bo pormltted. Indian Wins Marathon. NEW ORLEANS.

New York's Lines of Progross. New York's crcat business, amusc mont and residential centers tnovo steadily northward with so little varia tion from year to year that their future movement may be foretold with rea sonable accuracy. Tbe social center is approaching .Fifty-sovcnth street this year. A careful calculation, which a 'made each year, shows that this mythi cal point moves northward, at tho rate of exactly two blocks a year. It has been more than two decades in mov ing from Washington square to' its pres ent position. It is believed that tho social center will continuo northward until it reaches Eighty-sixth street, when it will abruptly turn west to Riverside drivo and then continuo its northern course indefiniteb'. Within the memor3r of many New Yorkers the business center of New York was at Chambers street and Broadway. Less than a generation ago it was at Canal street. In its nortBern progress it. halted for many years at Union square, and it is but a few A-cars siuce Madison square was the undis puted center of activity. Today Ilerald square marks the center of tho great re tail, theater nnd hotel centers, and ifc is reasonable to suppose that it will remain at this point for many years to come. Since the square is midway be tween tho two great railroad terminals, which aro transforming this section of the cit3, and at tho intersection of three great arteries of travel, its im portance is cerlnin to continue for a long period. The wholesale business section of the city again has not yet passed Fourteenth street, although its progross northward has been conipara- KVILIE COUNTY FAIR AHJ. C. A.

"Young' was sold," said Taylor, "be cause I believe that the onlv way for me to get a. winning team within tho' next two or three seasons Is to start with ab solutely new blood this spring and build up a. championship team, just like tho ono that was built up when Jimmy Collins was manager of the Red Sox. "I pinned some faith In the reports that Cy didn't caro to return to Boston be cause Crlger had boon disposed of, and I also had to consider the fact that If Cy had fallen down during the coming seasons rho fans would all sav that It was because I let Crlger go." lively rapid.

Feb. 21. The best pedes trians of the world will lino up March 7 In an international sLx-day race, go-as-you-please, at Madison Square Gar den. The promoters intend to pick twenty of tho bent teams from the 100 or more applications asking to bo en tered in the race. Among tho prominent foreign teams who have signed tho agreement for the race, tho most noteworthy combination Is Eduardo Clbot nnd Louis Orphee. the very best ocdcstrlans that could be found in France to represent their na tive country. Clbot 1b an endurance performer of great reputation, and bin partner, Orphee, equally well known, was a competitor In the 155-kllomcter road race recently held from Rouen to Paris. Another notable foreign entry is that of Forrl. the champion distance runner and walker of Italy, who holds the rec ord of having beaten Dorando Pletro, tho famous Italian Marathon raco runner. The final choice of the teams to repre sent England and Germany is being held In abeyance until tests which are to re duce tho selection to a matter of actual performance have hcen made.

Those men are known as champion long distance and enduranco runners and walkers, the former holding tho Weston gold helt, won the six-day continuous race held in Philadelphia a few years ago.

George Klubertans of Rochester and Tony Loeslcin of Erie, who have com peted as partners In several enduranco contests, are desirous of b'olng considered as a team. Other pairings agreed upon by the ath letes are Henrj" Gulgnard and B. Pas sicousslt ns a Swiss team, and two Greek teams in X G. Athanassaldas and Andrew Devaris ns one pair, and G.

Thoy aro now In Philadelphia, training under tho general direction of Mike Murphy. "Ono of tho most Interesting tests made to bring out material that may be equal to winning tho race is that which tho soldiers of Fort Leavenworth are con ducting as a try-out, in the hope of find ing a team that may creditably repre sent the United States army In the race.
