Omaha May Have
Team in Federal
Minor League
Apropos of tho announcement by John
Ward, owner of tho Brooklyn Federal
leaguo club, that two minor leagues
would be organized by the Federals In1
order to increase tho competition with
organized base ball and to provide berths
for those players who could not stand
the pace set In tho Federal league proper,
Omaha fans' seem to bo of the opinion
that Omaha will be entered In one of the
proposed circuits. According to several
veteran fans who Uavo studied tho base
ball situation almost slnco Its Infancy,
tha logical Class A circuit would bo In
the territory neighboring Omaha. The
logical league, according to these fans,
would Include Oinaha, Minneapolis, Ht.
Paul, Milwaukee, Detroit, Columbus,
Toledo and Ixuilsvllte. This league would
mean competition against organtted ball
in every one of thoso cities except Toledo,
where at present there la no club. A
minor Federal leaguo club might be put
In Cleveland, even though Cleveland has
two clubs, the American league club and
tho Toledo association club. It Is hardly
thought posslblo that Cleveland would
bo selected, as a big Federal leaguo club
coutd bo profitably Installed there. Don
er Is not a likely location for a rlub, be-
'MM of Ha isolation. It Is 504 mites west
sf Omaha and the jump would mean lay
overs both ways.

Though tho collegians played a hard
game, they were mora tban outclassed
by their heavier opponents.
Terhaps tho greatest redeeming feature
of Bollevue's playing was tho tlno team
work. t Time after time they worked the
ball close to the Pirates' goal only to lose

points for his team he managed to make
seventeen. Drummond also managed to

sensational nature. Illtohlo also made
himself conspicuous by spoiling many of

Water of Great Salt
Lake Will Prevent
Decay in Timber
waters ot Great Salt lake act as a strong
preservative, as distinguished from ocean
waters, Is because tho lake water is si
much saltier, being practically a saturate
solution. Forest experts suggest the tte.'t
and poles Immersed Jn these ivatcts
ought to be Impervious to decay If tho
salt Is not bleached out by the action
of tho elements. This can bo guarded
against. It is asserted, by painting 'the
butt ot the pole with creosote, which
will keep out tho moisture and keep In
the salt.
WASHINGTON, March ll.-Expert ot
tho forest service havo discovered thai
tho waters of the Great Salt Lake act
as a government preservation agalnit
decay In timber. For years they havo
been conducting experiments to find a
treatment that would preserve telegraph
poles and railroad tics. As tha result
of recent Investigations It has been found
timbers taken from tho Great Salt Lata
were perfectly sound, although they had
remained In those waters for many
years.
In replacing a railroad trestle recently
burnod along the north shore of Great
Salt lake it was found that tho piles
wero still perfectly sound after forty
three, years of service. In looking for
tho cause, since the plies wero only il
local pine and fir. It was discovered that
the timbers were Impregnated with salt.
At another point on the lake, eighteen
Inch plies set twenty-nine years ago were
similarly preserved with salt. Trestle
timbers placed .across the lake In 1903
apparently are as good as when the pile
wero driven. Other instances aro gtvea.
ono in particular, where timber having
remained In the. lake for fifty years was
In a perfect stato of preservation.
