Men's '5 Shoes for'3?
W. L. Douglas makes and sells more
men's S3.50shoes than any other two
manufacturers in the world, which
proves their superiority; they are
worn bmore men in all stations
of life than any other make.
Because W. L. Douglas is the -
largest manufacturer, he can buy -
cheaper and produce his shoes at a
lower cost than any other concern,
which enables him to sell a shoe
for $3.50 equal in every way to
those sold elsewhere for $5.00.

Grit-4olfers St. Pa~Ineen.
Although,the committee- of base bell men
representing the National League at the
"peace" session with theAmerican IAaguers
at Cincinnati today has 4ot been given full
power to act, every Qluly of the National
League will be represent. at the Ohio city
while the committees are in sesslos, The
representatives of the Various clubs of the
old organisation will be 1here to consider
any problem that in put 'to Morn,.Hart,
Robinson and Herrmann which may in
volve property nferestx or any point on
which the committee is In doubt as to its
authority to handle.
This Is understood to have-been the point
insisted on by Ban Johnson after he found
that the National Leaguers were not dis
posed to confer final powere on their repre
sentatives. Magnates of the different clubs
or their representatives fully empowered to
act will be In close touch with the confe
rees, and any point that may come up that
the peace committee is unable to handle
will be acted upon by the full quota of
clubs. Under this arrangement it is con
fidently expected that the-Ineeting of the
peace committee will be shortened and the
prospect of an agreement improved.
The American League' committee, con
sisting of President Ban Johnson, Varles
Comisky and Henry Killileit left Chicago
last night in a special car over the Penn
sylvania road. President Hart of the Chi
cago Nationals left earlier over the Monon,
and it was facetiously sutgested to Ban
Johnson that his proposed arming of the
special car with a Hotchkiss rapid-fire gun
was unnecessary. Johnson was in a merry
humor and suggested that his. special car
be christened the "White Dove" for this
trip at least.
President Johnson had expected to re
ceive a letter from Garry Herrmann, noti
fying him of the place of meeting, but at
the time of his departure it had not ar
rived. It is possible the Laughery Club,
Cincinnati, will be the plade selected. The
American .Leaguers believe that some place
should be selected in the city. This part,
-however, has been left to the judgment of
Mr. Herrmann.
AFTER TRAngINW GROUNDg,
Cleveland Gets Inte New Orleans
Ahead of Cbicao.,
New Orleans as a spring tgalning ground
is lost to Comiskey's White Stockings.
Agents of the Cleveland cltib have leased
the ball grounds there, 'nd' Comskey will
seek some other ileld ife ilais prospective
dhempIons. Several other sputherp cities,
no-tably Selma, where the Colts trained in
190% have written to 'if W4fte6k-inag

Hot SprIngs around March 1.
WAED'S PREDICTION.
Says Ball Clubs Will Be Made Up of
Local Players Two Decades Hence.
John M. Ward. who could have had the
National League presidency had he been
willing to accept it, has some original views
in regard to the future of base ball In a
recent article written for asJew York paper
he says:
"Two decades from now It may be no
longer a mere exhibition-for that ts all
that it is now-an exhibition of the ability
of a clever manager, wits. more money and
more tact In managerial council, to get to
gether the best players' in the market-t
will be a locally patriotic game for blood.
"The time is coming when the players, in
stead of being brought to play in any team
that "calls" them, irrespective of where
they live and where the' team is located,
will belong in the locality from Wisich the
team hails. There Is'a tendency, apparent
in that direction already.
'Of course, if this is done there will be
some work for the rules committee to do.
It 'will be necessary to laave some sort of
legislation to apportion the territory fairly
annng the teams. New York, being the
largest city in the Urdte4 States, by virtue
of its size would have the advantage of a
smaller city like Boston or Baltimore, -and
to even up matters it would be necessary
for the committee to give the smaller towna
enough territory to make all available popu
lation the same. The details must be deeid
ed by the events of the future. -Bat I be
1iev. that something like that is about to
come and will be the feature of the game
of base bell in 192."

other horses that carried Mr. Beli's colors

are registered as the owners of the four

still jointly owned by Harry Payne Widtney
and Herman B. Duryea, which goes to show
that this young racing firm is still Intact
-although Mr. Whitney some time ago sold
his interest In Acefull to his partner.

pressed the opinion that these big evehts

will be made public In a day or two.

Severe Drubbing.
Joe Grim, the Italian champion, last night

"Philadelphia Jack" O'Brien In the ring of
the Broadway A. C. at Philadelphia. The
building was crowded to Its capacity by
fol lowers of boxing, among Whom it wag_
generally believed that O'BrIen would
knock Grim out In short order. The latter,
however, succeeded n lasting the six
rounds, although tie scarcely landed a hard
blwe In return for the numerous stiff
punches he received from OBrien.
The champion of England took things
easily In the opening round, but In the sec
ond he sailed In, and followed four hard
rights over the heart with a left to the Jaw
tha sent Grim to the floor. The Italian
champion was In distress when the round
ednded.
OeBrien again -eased up In the next two
rounds. The fifth was a repetition of the
second, and Grim was again knocked down
and severely punished. He took the punches
mey, but was almost out at the bell. In
the last round O'Brien determined to end
matters quickly, but Grim resorted to
clinching, and thus filled out the time.

Penn Charged With Perjury.
There was a rumor afloat at New Orleans
yesterday that some of the men charged
by Jockey Penn with complicity in the
fraudulent steeplechases of last year will
prefer charges of perjury against him. It
is said Penn last year swore that the riders
Brazil and Ellison were not in the combina
tion and had nothing to do with the Axed
races. In his recent confession Penn names
both riders, and lays particular stress on
Ellison's connection with the scheme to
"milk" the bookmakers. When the papers
in the case are forwarded to the Western
Turf Club, the ruling authority in the mat
ter, affidavits that Penn made contrary
statements under oath will accompany his
confession.
Pinehurst Golf Handicap.
A golf handicap for men was played at
Pinehurst, N. C., yesterday under very un
favorable weather conditions. There was a
strong northwest wind, which made it diffi
cult for the players to keep in the course.

pair of sleeve buttohs, donated by Perry
R. Oliver of New York. Edwin A. Freeman
of Montclair, N. J.. won the prise. with 86,
4-82. The next best score was turned in
by P. F. Murphy of the Garden City Golf
Club, who made an 84 net. There were
several others whose scores were from 86
net to 95 net. Miss Priest and Alas Dic'c,
who have tied twice for the second cup in
the woman's tournament, play off the tie
today.
