Show The Union eeaoclatlen'e rTrv-lai ere over. Increased success la tns lit' tls organisation In tH. The Salt Lake playere yeaterday dem- onetreted In unmlatakeale manner the esteem In which they hold Cliff p. Blankenahlp. the huetllng manaaar wh took them through tH wlh flying fly-ing colors. Just before the beginning of the eecond game Vmplre Jimmy To-man" To-man" with the Salt l-ake playere grouped around him, presented to Blank-enalilp Blank-enalilp a gold handled umbrella aa a token of regard from the beye. "Blank appreclatee the little preeent. coming aa it doea from hia boya, and that he will alwaya treasure It goee without aaylng. Althouah aome ef the t'nlon league clube have loot money, most of them have new grounde that are entirely paid for, at leaat. Hlnkey" Van wound up hie Mil career ca-reer br pulling off hie favorite atunt of clouting the hail over the rllM field fence while the be see were choked. Spencer Abbott also drove another over the right field wall. Spencer Abbott left today for T- Sfka. Kan., where he owne a Pool and llllard hall. Johnnv Pendleton leavea tomorrow for Norwalk. Cel.. and Freddie Fred-die cordts leavee thia afternoon for Son Freneiaco. Cordts wae anxloua to remain over for the exhibition gamee. but he wee obliged to hurry to the bedside of hia alck mother. Abbott's departure means that Van. Droeean and Blankenehlp will have to alternate al-ternate on flrat. Schlmpff wll aa doubt eucceed Pendleton at aecond. All of Salt Iaka'a ehars of tha re-cetpte, re-cetpte, except 20 per rent of the groea which Coolev le holding out to defray eipeneee, will be divided among the players. I Schlmpff Anlahed the laet Inning ol Morgah'e game yesterday, and struck out the laat three men on eleven pttcbee balls. Jsck Cody of Bolae will net attend th , lesaue meeting, ee other buelneae will , detain him in Boise, plsnsger Hugh Kel-lackey Kel-lackey will repreeeot Oedy. John McCloekev'o Butte team le play-Ins play-Ins an exhibition game . with the Fort Benton. Mont., team this aftsmooa. Walter Johnson now holde the record for number of belle pltebad In a league game. In the laat game he pitched eaalnat Cleveland the sJond Waahlng-tonlan Waahlng-tonlan turned loose only elxty-nlne balls In the full nine Innings. Wonder how Wsahlngton could possibly keep out ef the cellar without Johnson. About ths beet thing the league msg-nstes msg-nstes ran do Is to forget their differ-eneea differ-eneea and work tosether for the good of the league. Even granting that Owner Cody should not care ta cast hie vole for Lucas aa president, that ta hie privilege. It le hardly ground for an attempt to uae anv of the foot power on lipping out a boost. There la no reeeon why the Union league should lose Preel-dent Preel-dent Lucas. He hee kept the leea-ue en lie feet this seeson. snd Is generally rec-oanlsed rec-oanlsed to be a scoa baseball general. Few have ever eels' otherwise. Whatever his differences are with Owner Cody, they should not for one little moment threaten this city so far as Its club Is concerned The league I. big eneuch to hold both Lucaa and Cody, in tbe Inter-eats Inter-eats of peace thia ehould be enouah. No fan In the Union leaaue wente a Fourth ef July celebration a Ions the beeebsll Una next year. A little more publicity of the actual plana of the league and what action President Lucaa Intends to leke on mattera would help some. The public, le aiipportlnc the t'nlon and proposes to continue to do so as hn ss Its directors Hv fearebly and deliver good baeoball. Boise News.
