Baseball has captured the North- west. Today it's an international af- fair. Unlike some other interna- tional affa however, it's easily seen through. With the opening of the Northern league extending the domain of John Burmeister to Canada as well as the United States, the big interest becomes international. Just when the differences between H. C. Webb, representing the North- ern league, and the Pulford interests of the former Winnipeg club of that league were thought to have been all settled comfty and nice, along came | |time to muss things up. a court action that threatened for a at Milwaukee, trimming the New Or- From all that could be learned from a set of leans boy, Eddie Coulton, so thor- oughly that Coulton had to bring in officers that missed their calling and the injured arm alibi, there has been .|should have been"European war cen- sors, it was deducted that the prin- cipal row was over the property rights of Pulford, in the former club. It seems that the Northern league has been asked to place a bond for assurance of the payments of these rights, if it established in court that Pulford has any.

That Mike Gibbons, phantom, liv- ing right in St. Paul, has a real hon- est to goodness secretary, is the la- test and livest flash that got by. Mike some time ago hung the tinware on his manager. The phantom took over the thing himself, and other than rather seriously bawling up his dates once in a while, managed to get away without disaster. The secre- tary is the latest, however. WHAT WILL WE ; DO WITH BOYS? A man usually considers that the only way he can show his patriotism is to unite with one of the political parties. While this is not decried, at the same time one may be patriotic and still not be deeply interested in polities. Abraham Lincoln said: “No li- brary is complete without two cer- tain books—the Bible .and Shake- speare; hardly a quotation used in literature that is not taken from one of these works.” Lincoln was very much interested in politics but he did not let it take his attention from the study of the Bible as well as other good works of literature. One of the leading tonlcs of dis- cussion at the present is caused by the distribution of the new illustrated Bible by The Pioneer. Everybody wants to know how it is possible to present such a magnificent volume on the terms explained in the certifi- cate printed on another page’s of to- day’s issue. There is no secret about it. The only possible way to do it is by taking advantage of quantity pro- duction as it was necessary for the publishers to do in supplying the pers throughout the country. There are many editions of other Bibles, all good in their way, but none of them contain the beautiful pictures print- ed in with the type and each one illustrating a particular subject. In addition to these wonderful pictures are numerous full-page color plates from the famous Tissot collection. These, together with copious margin references, educational helps, self- pronouncing text and colored maps make this a volume of rare educa- tional value. ‘While the $6 volume is by far the most magnificent work of its kind ever printed, there is also a $3 vol- ume, exactly the same except for the binding which is in silk cloth. These two bindings are also furnished in the Catholic edition in which the il- lustrations consist of full-page plates and maps, approved by the Church, without the Tissot collection and text pictures. Look for the educational certificate printed on‘another page of today's issue and clip it without delay. 0 40 | LIQUOR LEGISLATION IN CANADA Regina, Sask., Canadd4, May 10.—- Liquor legislation is the outstanding feature of the sesston program of the Saskatchewan legislature, which op- ened a special session today. Attempts will be made to abolish all bar and club licenses after July 1, -creating a system of government dispensaries in lieu of the present privately owned wholesale houses and providing the necessary machin- ery for the taking of a referendum vote to renew the license system or make the abolition of the bars per- manent after the war is over. Next in importance to the new li- quor legislation will be the report of the royal commission of inquiry into the subject of the agreements under which agriculture implements and machinery are sold. The report cf the commission will be ready for pre- sentation and will be followed by the introduction of the government bill dealing wlth this important and knot- ty question to give further protection to farmérs ag-hzst seizure of their goods. NOVEL ENDOWMENT PLAN Berkeley, ‘Cal., May 8.—Students R NELSON, Minn. My commission expires Jan. 1922, of ‘the University of California have hu upon; new lchme to get funds demand created by leading newspa-] for their Alma Mater. Every year 50 seniors will insure their lives for $1,000 each, payable to the univer- sity, the premiums to be paid by 700 members of the student body. This endless chain of endowment policies, will, it is believed, give the university control of funds estimated at $2,- 000,000 at the end of each succeed- ing 20 years. This gift is to be known as the “George Frederick Rinhart Memorial.” So that the premium rate may be the same on all policies, the 50 seniors who will in- sure their lives for the benefit of the school this year have an average age of 22 years and each is required to pass a physical examination before applying for the policy.

In the Baltiv provin- ces the Germans swung their offen- sive to the westward during the week and occupied the Baltic port of Li- bau, 35 miles north and east of Prus- sian territory. In this operation a squadron of ‘warships acted in conjunction with a land force which probably was not large. Mrs. A. B.

At one time Ostend was a great fort- ress looking out over the North sea through her menacing loophole upon the sails of Vikings. A century ago Byron made his memorable flight, not from, but to Ostend, in terror of van- dal bailiffs who were laying siege to his mansion in Piccadilly. The poet made the journey to Dover in his mag- nificent £500 coach, but had to walt until a storm abated before the mail packet felt it safe to set sail.
