A Tour of the Big Store Discloses Some Facts. 7 There are too many Morris Chairs here for one store to carry. One' qf two things is certain either too many were bought, or enough were not sold to bring the stock down to where it should be at this season of the year.

That's thl plan and here's the way they're cut: $12 Morris Chair for $8 $14 Morris Chair for $15 Morris Chair for $Io These three by way of example and others are reduced correspondingly.

The weather In almost all sections of the country is too cold for base ball, but it is not so cold that it freezes all talk of the game and the players. More interest is being taken in the sport at this time than was ever shown before, and every fan is more than anxious to take his place on the bleachers or grand stand to bid a welcome to the familiar cry of the man who now runs the game, the umpire, "play ball!" The coming season gives promise of being the fastest and most interesting in the history of the game, not alone in the big leagues, but in all the minor and independent leagues as well. There will be numerous changes in the make-up of the big league teams and not a few of the old timers will have to hustle for their positions to beat out some of the new comers that have been secured from the smaller leagues. The little fellows had to sit idly by and submit to the raids made on their clubs and see the best of their men gobbled up to strengthen the big league teams. The 'Tri-State association felt the result of the hunt for players by the big league magnates, and more than half a dozen players of.

the independent ranks will be found in fast company. Altoona by the raid lost Tommy Needham "Williamsport had to part with Johnny Lush Harrisburg lost the sem ices of Pitchers Hartley, Bartholdand Ureckenmlge. Several others maybe found in the ranks of the strougur leagues when the season opens. The managers of the independent teams of the Tri-State association are hustling to make their teams as strong as they possibly can in order to make a good showing in the cham pionship race, "which will carry with it the beautiful cup offered by Mr. Farnsworth, of Harrisburg.

They aro handicapped in securing players for the reason that the agreement of the Tri-State association and the Inde pendent league prevents them from dickering for the service of any of the players that composed the teams last year. To secure the best men they have been compelled to look out-site the independent rank and invade the minor leagues, just as the big league magnates have done. Th New England league is the centre of the hunt of the managers and several men of the clubs composing it will bo found in the independent ranks this year. They have been tempted to leave their former company by tho larger salaries offered and for the reason that they will enjoy greater freedom and more liberties. The teams composing the Tri-State association will doubtless be as strong is any of the minor league clubs and able to make a good showing when come in contact with the big league's.

"The general opinion of tho conservative lovers of the game is that the race for championship honors will be between Altoona, Harrisburg, Williamsport and York. These teams will be stronger than last year and the games between them are likely to be hotly contested and interesting. The fans in Altoona were never more enthusiastic over the outlook for a good season than they are at the present time. All are on the anxious bench regarding the makeup of the Altoona team because Manager Carpenter refuses to give out the names of his players until he Is absolutely certain they will wear an Altoona uniform. His reason for nbt divulging the roster of his team is that he hopes to eliminate the censure that was heaped on him last year for saying that he had secured the services of certain players who afterwards broke their word and contracts and went with other clubs.

This action on the part of Manager Carpon-ter has caused much interest to be taken in the game in this city, and the fans are more anxious than ever for the season to open. Manager Carpenter says he will announce the roster of his team in good time, about the middle of and assures the lovers of the game and ills supporters that the Altoona team will be as strong as any of its rivals aad will be there to deliver the goods as soon as the season is open. He is dickering for a couple of good ones and hopes to land them in a short time. His pitching staff will bo strong, and the men will be here for the opening of the season in good shape to pitch, the kind of ball expected of thorn. Several new faces will be on the team, players who will, it is hoped, strengthen the club.

1 The playing season will open Sp, May. Manager Carpenter has arranged his schedule for the race for the Farnsworth cup also a num-dcr of other games with other teams not represented in the association, among them being Johnstown. In this Carpenter has stolen a march on hi3 fellow managers in the association and has solved a difficult problem that the others" will now have to contend with. His schedule for the season will embrace about one hundred and twenty games, more than half of them to bo played at home. Tho teams at Harrisburg, Williamsport and York will be composed of a last lot ot players and will be stronger than last year.

The managers all have an eye on tho Farnsworth cup and mean to land it if they possibly can. Pet's Agnew Is hustling to till several gaps in his team and is now. in tho western part of tho state and Ohio on a hunt for players.
