Messrs. Purvis, Hansen, Breck anil
Mills, managers of the four baseball
teams which will comprise the Cook
Inlet Baseball league, met with Secre
•tary Fleishlnann yesterday morning at
the Chamber of Commerce and ar
ranged the season’s schedule. It only
awaits the sanction of the league di
rectors, who meet on Wednesday
night, to become final and it is under
stood that they are all in favor of the
schedule as arranged yesterday. The
schedule in full will be printed in
Thursday’s issue of The Daily Times.
The first game of the season will he
♦ played May 20th and from that date
the fans will get a run for their
money.
Anchorage*!s guaranteed a splendid
article of baseball this summer and
while the A. E. C. team has the best
line-up on paper the teams will be
very evenly matched. Rivalry is keen
from the outset and the different man
agers are all out to win the pennant.
The local granstand will be remod
eled and work on the diamond will
start as soon as the weather permits.
A paid umpire will officiate at all the
games, that will be run according to
the Spaulding rules. Secretary Flish
mann will keep a box score of all
games and publish the averages of the
teams and players weekly in The Daily
Times. Bids for grand stand conces
stens will be called for within a few
days.
Much important business was trans
acted at yesterday’s meeting and the
rules and regulations governing the
teams and games were drafted to be
left to a vote of the league directors
Wednesday night.
The four managers signed the fol
lowing agreement yesterday: "We
hereby agree that subsequent to May
20th no manager shall offer especial 1
inducements to any baseball player
claimed as a member of any other
team. A transfer may be made, legiti- i
mately, subject to the ‘two game’
clause, upon agreement of any three
managers.”
FLAG ETIQUETTE.
W hen Dewey’s fleet returned to New ,
York after the battle of Manila bay.
a Swedish janitor in a large depart-;
ment store hoisted an Amercan flag
with the Union down, and flew the sig
nal of distress throughout the celebra
tion. A patriotic citizen would hardly
have made so flagrant an error, but in
displaying flags or buntng there are
many fine points to be observed, re
marks Harry Lee King, deputy com
missioner of Boy Scouts. In the New
\ ork Tribune he gives these rules for
flying the national colors:
1. The proper time for raising the
flag is sunrise or after, never before.
2. The flag must be lowered at sun
set.
In draping the flag against the
side of a room or building, the proper
position for the blue held is toward
the north or toward the east.
It is a mark of disrespect to allow
the flag to fly throughout the night.
There is no uniform usage in the
1 display of bunting, but it is just is
easy to hang it in the correct fashion.
When buildings are decorated in bunt
ing draped horizontally, the red should
be at the top, according to a letter
from the war department published in
the New York Sun:
War Department, Office of the Quar
termaster General, Washington, D.
| C.
There are no regulations prescrib
ing the method of utilizing bunting
i for decorative purposes, but good
taste requires that the order shall be
i red at the top, followed by white, then
blue, in accordance with the heraldic
colors of the national flag.

TOM PATTERSON IS
VICTIM OF STABBING
Tom Patterson was stabbed by
'‘Louie the Dago” during an alterca
tion Saturday night at the Panhandle.
Patterson was removed to the hospital
for medical treatment and Dr. Beeson
reports that he has four painful but
not serious knife stabs in the back.
Marshals Mossman and Schultz ar
rested Louie immediately after the
fracas and placed him in the federal
jail awaiting trial.
Rumors are rife in regard to what
led up to the stabbing, but it seems
that Louie, who was playing a losing
game of "dummy” solo got angry at
some of the remarks of the chair
warmers and raised a row with a man
by the name of Murphy with whom he
was playing. Murphy and Louie
mixed it but were separated. Patter
son took up the gauntlet for Murphy
and Louie and Patterson went to the
floor with the result that Louie has a
disfigured face and Patterson four
knife wounds in the back. The details
of the case will come out at the trial,
awaiting Patterson’s recovery.

Letter from Ex-President Roosevelt, to .1. Stuart Blackton.
author of “'Hie Battle Cry of Peace.”
My dear Mr. Blackton
I wish you all success iu your enterprise. Every man
\\(»rth being called a man should realize that if he has the right
to vote, then it is his duty to hear arms. We Americans claim
to he a nation of freemen. Freemen do their own lighting.
They do not hire other people to do their fighting for them; and
if they are not lit and willing to do their own lighting they
are unlit to be freemen. The duty of military service should
he as widespread as the right to vote.
Sincerely yours,
(Signed) THEODORE ROOSEVELT.
