BLUE RIDGE TO
BE ECONOMICAL
Pass Resolution to Hold to
Limit; Reward For Proof
of Violations
Hagerstown, Md„ April 26. —When
the owners and managers of the six
teams of the Blue Ridge Baseball
League. including Gettysburg,
Chambersburg, and Hanover, three
Pennsylvania towns, met here for
probably their last gathering before
the opening of the session on May
10. President J. V. Jamison, Jr.,
sprung a surprise. He announced
some radical changes in the sched
ule. Chambersburg will open in
Gettysburg and the two teams will
play the opening game in Cham
bersburg on May 12.
The other openings are also
changed. Hagerstown opening in
ilartinsburg and Frederick in Han
over. Chambersburg will get seven
Saturday games "y the change.
Cut Salary Limit
Inspired by a desire for economy,
in view of the fact that the war may
be hard on baseball attendance this
year, the magnates considered a
resolution offered by President Jami
son to hold the salary limit of the
teams down to $l,lOO a month, and
it was adopted. Club owners ami
players will be required to make affi
davits concerning salaries paid and
received, and a reward of fifty dol
lars will be paid for information that
any club has violated the salary
limit. Heretofore there was merely
a "gentleman's agreement" that the
salary limit was not being exceeded. I
Players signed by the managers of
all of the teams are reporting for
practice and by the end of the week
practically every player on the re
spective teams will be on hand and
down at hard work.

Connie Mack and his much ridi-!

beating the Yankees in old-time:
ninth-inning fashion, 4 to 2. The i
credit of victory goes to Wally j

bases and cleaned the sacks with a
homer.
With the score 2 to 4 in the

Cleveland bunched hits oft Cicot

game was played in a drizzling rain.
NATIONAL LEAGUE
The Pirates rallied in the ninth in
ning yesterday and after tieing St.
Louis in that frame won out in the
tenth by the score of 10 to 8. Pitts-,
burgh batted Meadows from the box
in the initial inning, securing four I

the former won by the score of 4 i

In a slugfest participated In by

SHOW A FLIVVER
Murray-Smith Rout Was Slow
and Preliminary Roys Were
Poorly Matched )
"If you want to see a fight enlist
in the army, don't go to sec a box
ing show," was the opinion .of the
fans who attended the opening show
of the National Athletic Club last
night In the Family theater. The
attendance was poor and the fans
who did attend were greatly disap
pointed with the bouts, with the ex
ception of the wind-up and the battle
royal.
The preliminary bouts were a
farce and the fans did not even get
a chance to see any action at all.
The opening bout between Young
Dawson, Steelton and Young Mun
son, Baltimore, lasted three punches
and then Munson's seconds dragged
him from i'ne ring. He was out
matched as was the case in all the
preliminary bouts.
Second Rout Goes l imit
| The second bout was was but little
' better but lasted the limit, it was
j between Eddie Dugan, Baltimore
j and Young Seidels, York. Seideis
j was outweighed about twenty pounds
i and outieached about six, but was
i given credit for putting up the bet
ter light. Referee Taylor stopped
the Dick Gotwalt, York, and Ted
Lewis, Baltimore light in the open
ing of the second round after Lewis
I got a stiff wallop in the ribs. Got
' wait outweighed him by fifteen
i pounds. Lewis looked more like a
dancing master than a fighter.
Wind-up Only Fair
Harry Smith, Philadelphia and
Jimmie Murray, New York, were
.matched in the final bout and while
it was good at times it was by no
means a real fight. Smith had a
I shade on points, bothering Murray
I with a weak left. Neither boxer
i showed any effects of the mill when
they 'eft the ring.
| The most satisfactory event on the
bill was the buttle royal between
J eight colored "pusons" and the antics
they went through pleased the
| crowd.

A GOOD RETRIEVER
A neighbor of mine recently
bought a setter dog. I mention a
"dog" because you may otherwise
think 1 refer to Cochin China or
Plymouth Rock. Well, he thought he
was getting just a plain everyday
setter, but the dog turned out to be
a retriever of great value as well.
Last wash day he retrieved from a
neighbor's line a set of army blan
kets and a pair of silk hose—of a
total value of about ten dollars, if
he holds up to this record, he will
prove a bargain to his master, for,
besides being a faultless setter and
retriever, he gives signs of becom
ing a professional kleptomaniac.—

human drama that exposes the third
degree and presents the greatest
argument against capital punish
ment ever advanced. This dramatic
appeal to people of all classes is to
be presented at the Regent Theater
to-day and to-morrow. The picture
tells the story of the mysterious mur
der of a well-to-do fanner and his
sister. The hired man is suspected,
simply because there is no definite
evidence pointing to the leal criminal.
He is subjected to "third degree"
methods, and confesses without realiz
ing his great danger. Brought to
trial, he is found to be a pitiful mental
defective, with the mind of a child of
seven. Without money or "pull" of
any sort his condition arouses a State
wide sympathy. He is convicted prin
cipally on his pitiful confession and is
sentenced to death. During Ills stay
in the deathhouse a keeper becomes
convinced of his innocence. With the
help of a woman lawyer, who is doing
good work in the prison, the story of
the mystery murder is gradually
worked out. The facts' show that the

circumstantial evidence. A few min

BEIDLEMAN HITS
COMMISSION FORM
Argues For His One Council
Rill and Cross-Questions
Opponents
In the Senate chamber yesterday
afternoon the upper branch commit
tee on municipal affairs heard argu
ment for and against the bill intro
duced by Senator Beidleman on Aprl!
21, providing the one council form of
government for third class cities, one
frome each ward, and doing away
with the present commission form.
Matthew Long, of Ilazleton, accom
panied by four residents of that city,
opposed with considerable vigor a
continuation of the commission form
of government on the ground that it
is more extravagant than representa
tion by wards. He told the commit
tee that when his committee visited
Wllkes-Barre and Pittston they did
not meet r single man who favored
the commission form. Long likened
commission form of government to
the centralization of government by
a monarchy, which, he said, is un-
American and against the principles
of this great republic.
H. W. Ferrell, secretary of the
Wilkes-Barre Chamber of Commerce,
defended the commission form of gov
ernment, saying that Wllkes-Barre
regarded it as much superior and
more satisfactory than the ward form,
which brought the reply from Sena
tor Beidleman that if all the business
of that city's commission form was
on a par with a recent asphalt con
tract awarded then the elimination
of the present form cannot come too
soon.
l.on Bills Don't Count
Referring to the Wllkes-Barre pav
ing contract Senator Beidleman said
that a few months ago Wilkes-Barre
council advertised for bids for the
paving of several streets with asphalt.
When the bids were opened It was
found that the bid of the Central Con
struction Corporation of Hariisburg
was $2 a square yard and that of
the Warner-yuinlan Asphalt Company
$2,19. Despite the saving of nineteen
cents a square yard to the taxpayers
the contract was awarded to the War
ner-Quinlan Company.
At a meeting in Johnstown former
Mayor Ira W. Stratton. of Reading,
told the committee that without ex
ception the commission form of gov
ernment was endorsed. When Sena
tor Beidleman asked him who had at
tended and he had replied that city
commissioners from Harrisburg and
other cities were present the author
of the bill replied that it was but
natural these commissioners should
