20 LOCAL ATHLETE STAR ON MARYLAND AGRICULTURAL TEAM-NEW TECH SPORTS PHILLIES SCOUT HOME FROM WEST Silent on New Material For Quakers; Tells of Besults of Becent Bulings • Special to Tk* Telegraph Philadelphia, Dec. B.—Local base ball doings chirped up a bit around the Phils' headquarters yesterday when Captain William Neal, official scout for the Quakers, blew into the club office, bringing with him the aroma of California. Neal made the trip across the continent for a peep at some of the Coast stars, but if he discovered any who looked like Lavey Bancroft he kept the matter strictly to himself. He attended the meeting of the National Association of Minor Leagues at San Francisco and he slated that they are not a bit friendly loward making peace with the Feds. Xcal saitj: "The minor leaguers who were at San Francisco are not in a mood to <-ompronii6e with the Federal League. They are eager to keep up the light, and they declared that they did not care whether or not more players jumped their clubs. They are also opposed to any of the players who jumped organized baseball being taken back into the fold in case peace should be declared with the Federals. Threat Brings Results "The threat that players belonging to organized baseball clubs would be punished if they played this winter in leagues in California on the same team or against Federal League play ers resulted in the latter being barred out of the winter leagues. San Diego had a player named Rawlins, of the Kansas City Federals. Players of or ganized baseball refused to pjay in games with Rawlins and the San Diego club was forced to let Rawlins out. There is now a movement on foot to stop players from playing in winter leagues on the Coast. "I did not see the All-Nationals and the Ail-Americans, as I left San Fran cisco the day before their arrival. I understand that each player on that lour cleared up SBOO over expenses." Husiness Manager Shettsline, of the Phillies, received a letter from Man ager Pat Moran. Pat has been hunt ing this Fall near his home at Fitch burg, Mass. Moran wrote that he didn't bag any bear or deer and that hr didn't ever get a sight of any such animals. Pat is now waiting for the ice to form on the streams so that he can go out and enjoy the fun of win ter fishing through holes in the ice.

Tener's Belief Special to The Telegraph ! New York, Dec. 3.—John K. Tener i yesterday issued his first statement since the Federal League announced that it would invade this city. When he was asked what he thought of the proposed plans of the Federals, he said: "X don't know whether they have a park in this city. The Federal League has been in existence two years, and it has accomplished nothing so far as making baseball a paying proposition. The sec ond season was even worse than the first, and two or three cities that had Federal League clubs have been abandoned. The Brooklyn club has ' been the greatest failure in the Fed i eral League, in fact, the greatest fail ' lire in baseball. If they fill the park 'in Brooklyn for the next five years, I the owners will not be reimbursed for the money that has been spent. "It will cost not less than $1,500,000 to place a club on Manhattan Island, and it. is just sending so much good money after bad. Apparently the con tinued life of the Federal League is due to the fact that a settlement of the baseball conditions has not been effect ed, and the league must continue or give up all."

This is "Big Bill's"* third year in the game, playing in the back field the last two years, and being shifted to guard this Fall on account, of an injury which handicapped his speed. His work all season and especially in the game against Hopkins resulted in his being selected on the All-Mary land team, made up from all the col leges of the state. The Baltimore Sun says: "Kish paugli was easily the class of the guards, weighing nearly 200 pounds, and playing a heady and aggressive game, his work was far above that of any other played in this position."

DICKINSON KEEPS FOOTBALL Special to " r .' , r Telegraph Carlisle, Dec. 3. Although an nouncement has not been officially made at Dickinson College, there is good reason to believe that the insti tution will not abolish football, either because of a discouraging season or jtlie death of Fred McGough, a law junior, at Williamsport. The college faculty would not take any action on abolishing the game. The relatives of young McGough do not lay any blame I whatsoever on DicKinson or her offi cials. and have frankly recognized the possibility of grave injury in connec 'tion with all forms of athletics and j have so expressed themselves.

Otis Stewart, wealthy land owner of West Chicago, had been ill since the day he ran a silver into his finger. Wednesday night he died. It was an affecting- death. Myrtle Stewart, his daughter, called in the neighbors, and the community wept in unison. There were novel features about the wake—the body, for instance, lay on a narrow plank laid across the backs of two chairs. In a position uncomfort able even for a corpse. And the shroua was a sheet several thicknesses too thin for the temperature of the room. In the midst of it the corpse became weary and shifted his position. So did | the women. Two physicians passed half an hour administering to hysterical mourners on a street corner near the Stewart | residence, and departed just as Krnesi Morris, the undertaker, reached the scene. | Stewart Is no longer the popular neighbor he was before he died. Neigh- I iiors have joined in a move to have his ' sanity tested. The corpse explained his conduct with | the plea that he wished to learn what the community thought of him. If he; didn't know before, he knows now. ] POET DIES IN FRANCE By Associated Press Versailles. France, Dec. 3.

PI,ANT PEONIES IN THE FA 1.1, j Peonies are coming into popularity | again, not only the old, double sorts, which we can well remember In our | grandmother's gardens, but hundreds I of new varieties. Some of these are J valued more for their oddity than for j their beauty, but many of them are j exquisite. I have seen some so deli- I cate In coloring and so perfect in form, i says D. It. Cobb in Farm and Home. ] one could hardly imagine any flower i more perfect. Some are early and ] others late, so the season has been i much extended, and one can have flow- j ers for nearly a month from the time ] the earliest begin to bloom. Peonies can be planted at any time from early Fall to early Spring. Sep- I tember is considered the earliest month, and by some it is thought the best, but October is just as good. The roots are dormant and they will eret well settled and established before it freezes up, if planted any time before the middle of November. The roots should be set deep enough so the crowns are just be neath the surface, and the roots should be deep as they would naturally be, without crowding them or spreading them more than natural. Pack the soil , firmly. For general planting I would reeom- i mend the mixtures in colors classed i separately, as mixed reds, mixed whites, mixed niriks and mixed purples. The , whites will range from clear white to i cream and light blush, and white with j come petals marked with pink or red. i The pinks, reds and purples are varv- i Ing shades of these colors. Get the ' doubles, of course .and you will not be 1 disappointed with the flowers. They j are much cheaper than the named 1 sorts, and for the farm ararden they are : practically as good. The flowers are • very large, very double, and the col ors are good. The plants are even ' more hardy than the general run of | fancy sorts. Peonies should be planted where they . can remain for several years, for they 1 do not like to be disturbed. As a gen- | eral thing they will not bloom for one. and sometimes two or three years after they are transplanted, though I have usually bad some flowers from good roots thpt T bought the flrst season i after I planted them.

M—A Copen hagen dispatch to the Exchange Tele graph Company, filed says: The American steamship, Andrew Weloh. has become a center of atten tion in Scandinavia. Her history to date follows in brief: "After being chased by British patrol boats In the Atlantic, by British sub marines in the North Sea and crippled by a series of storms, she put into Bergen in distress. Norway granted the stranger permission to return to England, but she started for Haelm stad, Sweden.

A start was made in the night, but a Swedish torpedo boat arrived on the scene and forced the Andrew Welch to turn back to Haelmstad. Available maritime records do not list a steamer called the Andrew Welch. The American bark of that name, a vessel of 863 tons, sailed from San Francisco August 19, with a corgo of beans for Haelmstad. A dispatch from Christiana on No vember 17 said the bark had been towed into Christianse'nd. She was boarded by a party from a British pa trol boat oIT the Shetland Islands. It was saidfi and into Lewriek, but a storm carried t\je vessel toward the Norwegian coast, whre she was taken into tow by the steamer Russeland.
