The one ttflnn which gave any ;rom!se
of prolonging; the meetings of the b'K
lea((U"H waa pnon ble discussion of a new
chedule plan, which Oary Herrmann haa
advocated. '
The Cincinnati president la quoted n
favorlnn a schedule of Hi game for each
leHKiie, which would carry the soas'in up
to the mlddl of August, and then to tnrt
erlea ot. Inter-li'asue Karnes. Vndor this
plan each club would play four game nt
home and foltr abroad with each team of
the other league, op sixty-four game In
all, 'n which teams of tha National leasue
would be pitted against American league
teams. ;. ,
.ln tuber of Usmn,
Each club would thu rday 179 pames
durln? the aeason. which Would start about
April 10 and close about October 16. The
old world's championship series would lie
eliminated, If being; calculated that the
team -winning the. greatest number of
games In the whole season would be de
serving of a real world's championship
title.
From statements attributed to President
Johnson, there seems lltble probability
that the American league would take
kindly to the plan for this season at least.
It was Indicated that the American league
season would he I'kely to betfln about
April 12 and consist of the usual 1M games.
What the other National league magnate
thought about the new lnter-league sched
ule proposition had not been developed up
to the time the club representatives got to
gether for the day' business.
The first ImporUflt trade of the base ball
meetings whs consummated fcoday when

JEM MACE1 ONCE 'A- RICH -MAN
Famous Flhvr at One Time Had
llauk Aceount of Trt,H, bat
Iiea with Tio Money.
Jem Mace, the last of' the 'old school of
prise fighters, died reoently at Jarrow,
where h had. been staying for the past
few weeks. The' deceased was In his eigh
tieth year. ' . ' "
It can truly be said of Jem Maoe, says
the Pall Mall .Oaiette, that he was as
famous 1n his day as any prise fighter the
world haa ever known. He was born on
April 8, 18J1, and he engaged In his first
Important flgnt.when 24 years of age. In
fact he beat Blusher Blacy In nine rounds,
but In those days tho facilities for puglllstlo
encounter were' not quite so great a they
are today and It was not until about
eighteen hiouths later that he met Pill
Thorne, whom Mace defeated after a con
test which lasted for eighteen rounds.
Ills next fight was a lotting one, for he
waa beaten' In two rpunds by Bob Brattle.
Thut wa In September, 1S6S, but the fol
lowing Junumy, Mace made amend and
regained the confidence of his admirers by
beating i'onh Price !h 'eleven rounds.
In 1M2 Muce Jmet Tom King in January
for iti0 and 1 tbe championship, and beat
him after a terrible oontest, which lasted
for forty-three rounds. The men met again
In the eume yuar, when, In November,
King turned, the tables on his opponent In
twenty-one rounds. Mace's next appearance
In a contest fof the championship was In
when he drew l'h Joe Gosa. He had
beaten (Joss thrve years before, and when
they met agaliu Mace defeated his old op
ponent In twenty-one rounds.
In 1HG7 Maoe . contested the title and a
pure of iJuo a 1 le with K. Baldwin, the
bout ending In a draw, but lit 1870 when
he was nearly 40 t ears of age, old Jem
beat T. Allen IE a contest for the cham
pion! nip of the'.worjd. In America, and, u
year later, he tail- hU Usl appearance
In a chainpioniilKtp fltfht. He Was then over
40 years of g4 but- bad the satisfaction
of effecting a flaw "after .twelve rounds
With Joe CoburiV
Uki all of hi calling, Mate' at one time
had been a rich man. In an Interview only
a year or i 40 he remarked that he
had as much as 73.uuo to his credit In the
bunk, and, furlhir, thut he hud kept his
own stable of race Worses.
The old pugilist laid that he had boon
accuKiuiiird to .rigliUng all his life, his
ttuliest battles Icing among the Jockey
bo s at tt'e fairs. lin he uii his firt
fight, he was only about 14 years of ao.
His toughest cucouuter Was with a Stuly
biUUc man inuiiy ir afier.. lie and
hi opponent fuuyht for six hours. In that
Inatcli Mace Mdk? one of his arms a id
XlliUhed the flfclll oln -handed.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 14-Renewal of the
fight on the rules which signalised the Inst
session was precipitated today by Repre
sentative Hughes of New Jersey.
The question under conslde-atlon Was
whether a bill for the codification and re
vision of the laws relating to the Judiciary,
consideration of which occupied all Inst
Wednesday, should again be taken ur to
day, simply on the call of the chairman of
the committee, representing the measure.
The question wa raised by Mr. Hughes
after the house met and after Represen
tative Moon of Pennsylvania, chairman of
the committee on revision of the laws, had
asked that the house proceed with the
consideration of the bill for codifying the
Judiciary laws.
Representative Fitzgerald of New York
led the democratic side of the house In
opposing consideration of the bill. He
declared that the house under the rules
could decide for Itself what business It
shall consider.
' It was declared by the democratic mem-
heis that the I'lilnliny bill, wi.lii. i
lengthy, in, gin he used as c luifu-r . pi -vent

P-nnt ball a nlayed In America sorely

the battleship Idaho and one from the j

After the first three-quarters Kohler of
the Idaho team emerged with a bandage
round his head and others were limping,
but It did not matter, for Idaho won with
19 points to nothing. They received the
challenge cup from tne duke of Man
chester. "It's a great game," said Columbus, A.

sponge, "but the ground's too soft to fall
on here. Now, If It had been frosty and

It looks very much as If the season of

the winning of a world's championship.
In 1909 twenty-three American league
players succeeded in securing twenty or
more sacrifice hits during the season, last
year twenty-two were enrolled upon this
particular scroll of fame. The twenty
three high guns of 1909 made 643 sacrlfce

Now that the time for coasting and other winter sports is at
hand, we want to speak a word of WARNING, with particular
reference to COASTING.
On all streets on which there are street car tracks, and on
ell hills which cross or terminate on streets having street car
tracks, there is a CONSTANT DANGER to those indulging in the
exhilarating sport of coasting.
Men and women, as well-as boys and girls, have lost their
lives, or have been seriously injured by dashing into moving
or standing cars on their sleds or travelers.
Why jeopradixe your lives by coasting; where the hazard is
so great, when there are so many places in this city of hills, where
this sport may be indulged in with perfect safety?
