We would like to see every St. 'Paul citizen wearing St. Paul-made clothing, and, if popular prices, combiner! with first-class workmanship and materials will accomplish that result, we propose doing our share toward it. A Suggestion ! To get any kind of a ready-made Suit or Overcoat you will have to pay at least $15.00, and the chances are that the sleeves will not be roomy or the collar will make the coat look what it is—ready-made. Why not spend a few dollars more and have garments made to your measure, made from cloth you can pick out for yourself, lined as only a custom-made garment can be lined? Garments like this will outwear two of the ready-made kind; and besides you will have the satisfaction of knowing that the money paid for making same has gone into the pockets of St. Paul workmen, and not to some Eastern sweater. Our Spring Stock awaits your inspection. Our prices? $20.00 to $50.00 for Suits or Overcoats to order, are as low as' good garments can be produced for. If you pay less you get less. Special reductions On any Fail and Winter-weight goods we may have left. Don't miss our Spring display of Imported and Domestic fabrics. It makes some of the high-priced tailors'stocks look like 30 cents. <-» <-><~><-»<-»<-><-t<-t<-»f, r ><-><-ir*<~> (^l^f^V^ntfScilM^ Seventh and Robert Streets. ((^N^v" Ito^ii L.« ls «. ah , Manage-.

TEAM Fl K MSIIKS DOPE OX STKAXGE FLAYERS OUTFIELD OF LEFT-HANDERS Men All Hold Good Mtek Records and Are Fast en the ll.i*<-..,— Bean is a Fast One. Although the club owners and managers of the American Association already look upon the St. Paul team as one of the Homing leaders in the 1902 season race for the pennant, Manager Mike Kelly wants ♦o go still farther and the manager of the feaint has given out the records of the new men who will be found in St Paul uniforms this year. All of the new men are able to claim a rating in the .300 batting class, and Kelly promises that they will be there in the field and on the baselines. Winters, one of the new men signed for the outfield, played with Selma in the Southern league last season, and his .418 batting average proves that the pitchers had reason to dread his turn un with the stick. Geier had a rather checkered career hist year, and It is hard to locate last season's •'dope" for the little outfielder but the St. Paul fanatics know Geier, and when his .310 batting average with Indianapolis is announced they kneow that the little fellow is still able to de liver the goods. L-umley is another of the new ones to St. Paul enthusiasts. Lumley comes from Rome, of the New York state league, and In that league he batted up to a .352 mark. Kelly declares that Lumley as well as Winters, Is a fast man on the bases. All of the St Paul outneld are left handed bitters and they have all mastered the trick of getting away to the first bag without losing a second of valuable time. Warner, another one of the outfielders, played with Dcs Moines in the Western league last season. Warner was known around the circuit as "Mum" Warner, the outfielder being one of the players who forget the grandstand the moment the gam 3 is called. Warner's figures for last season are still sacredly guarded by Wbltfield, of the Western league, but * tIJ- - *fr*"*'fa»-i -AiSWiA 'S*i' rfmm-ti C W. JOHN SO X, Right Shortstop, Battery A Team.

Danny Shay, too, is a Western league player still waiting to hear about the averaged fcr the 1901 season. Shay is a fast infielder and is a good man with the stick when in form. He finished last season with San Francisco in the California league, and while there batted at a .236 gait. Kelly insists that this figure in the Western coast league proves Shay to be a good man, the St. Paul manager claiming that few players lr» the California league succeed tn getting up to the .300 mark. SMALLER ONES WANT !N LITTLM COLLEGES WAXT REI'RR. SEATATIOX AT MEET. CHICAGO, March B.—The small colleges want to take part in the: intercollegiate conference meet here on May 31. Also life' University of California would like to come in, but as it also wants to take part in the so-called Mott Haaven games i n Isew York city on the same day, its chances are slender. o^ Ch ?} assot i *he University of Chi cago, said yesterday that he had heard llZZr* ?U^ r of th* smaller colleges In regard to the coming meet. " They con *?* r .hat the old Western IntercoUegiat^ shmnn Ch a3Sof l iatl °? is 'ad and that they should be allowed to take part in the meet of the "big nine." Coach Stagg is in favor of admitting them, arid it is be lieved^ that Dr. Holiistcr, of Northwest ern, is of the same opinion. A number of the men on the managing committee however, an? strongly opposed to this' and there is a prospect of some interest ing discussion at the next meeting o f thp. committee. , •*.-■ » c Stag? believes that such institutions as comply with the conference rules of eligi bility should be allowed to compete and he is even in favor of widening the ranks of the "big nine" and letting the smaller fry take a share in the government of the association. - +v,The is believed _to be small likelihood that the California will compete here on May 31, although Stephen T. Mather the representative of that institution here informed; President Bates yesterday that such was their desire. - To place the date a week later would put it into the ex amination period, - and -a week : earlier would meet with other valid objections. END OF WAR SIGHTED 'CLASHING FACTIONS OP NATIONAL, LEAGUE. AY SIGX GEN ERAL, TREATY A COMPROMISE PRESIDED Spalding anil Freednian Will Sit Buck and Peace "Will Reign Again— and Brush the Middlemen. CHICAGO, March S.— Judging from the events and incidents of the last forty* eight hours, the clashing factions in the baseball world Will fign a general treaty of peace inside of two weeks. John T. Brush gave out a two-column interview Tuesday in the interest 1 of peace and harmony, and on the everting of the same day Ccl. Jim Hart packed his grip and started for California. The Chicago mag nate went to confer with A. G. Spald ing. It is a far step" to 'Frisco, but, bar ring accident, Hart wiil' have his con ference with SpnUipg a^nd be back in Chicago by March 3* While Brush was dealing out "peace talks'' from Indianapolis- and Hart was making thte "hurry jump to California, a trusted agent was working overtime in an unsuccessful effortl to frame up a deal with the club owners of the Ameri can league, who were holding their spring meeting in Detroit. This agent was apparently devoting all his time and talents to the task of securing the signatures of the club owners to con tracts for uniforms. As a matter of fact, he was playing "politics." The American league magnates, afier wrestling with the many-sided prob lems for two days finally decided to steer clear of Freedman and Brush and alloT# the leaders of the discordant factions in the National league to settle their dif- ferences in their own way. This action of the American league means almost everything to the Spalding faction In the National league. It means, first of all, that the American magnates will not dis rupt the National circuit for all time by adding New York and Cincinnati to their circuit. It also means that Cok Hart and his side will, on behalf of Spalding, be able to arrange a "compromise" with the Freedrr.an faction. It is a waste of time and space to mince words over the ■ W. L. CASIPBELL. Second Base, Battery A Team. details of the aforesaid "compromise plan." SpaWtng wants it. and Freed man is eager for it. Both sides are will ing to make concessions, and Hart and Brush are the middlemen who are sched uled to do the dickering. The reorganization scheme has the merit of simplicity, to say the least. Spalding and Freedman are to cease their pernicious activity. A disinterest ed outsider who la in close touch with the situation will be elected president of the National league, and the circuit of eight clubs will be continued under his jurisdiction. As things now look, this man will be Eddie Talcott, of New York. Directly after his election, this "com promise" president is expected to devote ai! his time and talents to the task of running the National league on strictly business principlea. In the meantime the American league is to paddle its own canoe, with Ban Johnson managing its affairs at his new headquarters in New Yoik. It !s also understood by all the men most interested that the American league is to be given an opening in New York and Cincinnati next year, and that both leagues will operate under ,i now nation al agreement In 1903.
