Box seats, however, will sell for $5. Heretofore $1 was usually the lowest price of admittance. The club owners decided to enforce strictly the rule prohibiting players from writing newspaper stories or permitting their names to be used in connection with them. Under a for mer rule the players if given the con sent of the club owners, could do newspaper writing on world's series games and other events, but it was decided to abolish the practice en tirely. H. H. Frazee and Hugh J. Ward, of New York, the owner of the Boston club, and James P. Dunn, of Chicago, purchaser of the Cleveland franchise, 1 were unanimously voted into the i league. A. T. Baum, president of the Pacific | Coast I.eague, was chairman of the committee representing Ihe three | Class A A leagues which sought to > have the draft rule eliminated. The I other members of the committee were j President Barrow, of the International l r.eague, and Thomas J.

CHRISTMAS SWEETS It is not always easy to place one's finger upon good candy receipts when they are wanted. The pleasure which comes not only from giving but also i from receiving a box of homemade , candy would seem to warrant a larger ! exercise of home talent In this direc tion, especially at the Christmas sea son. Miss Pearl Mac Donald, In charge of i home economics extension at the i Pennsylvania State College, suggests receipts for marshmallows and pan oche as follows: MarslimaUows 2 cups sugar; Vfe cup boiling water; white of 1 egg; 2 tablespoonns Knox gelatine soaked In six tablespoons cold i water; vanilla. Boil syrup until it spins a thread when dropped from the tip of a spoon. Stir Into this the soft • ened gelatine and beat until entirely i dissolved. Remove from flame and ■ stir Into this the stiffly beaten white of an egg. Beat the mixture until cold and stiff. Add vanilla and pour Into a pan dusted with powdered sugar. When cold, cut and dip in powdered , sugar. Marshmallows dry quickly and should be kept in an airtight recep tacle. Panoclie 1 cup (packed) 'medium brown sugar V* cup cream; one-third cup chopped nut meats. Cook sugar and cream to soft ball. Cool and stir until i it begins to thicken. Add nuts and when it is too thick to pour easily, spread quickly on a buttered pan. OWNS ENGINE HE KAN Hutchinson, Kan., Dec. 15. —Almost a quarter of a century ago O. P. By ers, as an engineer on the Rock Is land, was using engine No. 496 on a run between Forth Worth, Texas, and Chickasha, Okla. My. Byers is now president of his own railway, the Anthony and North ern. He needed another locomotive, and found, to his satisfaction, that his old engine, No. 496, was out of com mission on the Rock Island. As a matter of sentiment largely, he dickered for and secured the locomo tive, has had it rebuilt, and it is now pulling wheat trains, as No. 4 on the A. and N. 7
