(By Tort.) President Prank Gamble of the I.-O. lea&ue telephoned to the Palladium yesterday afternoon news which will he glad tidings to tho local fans. The substance of Mr. Gamble's conversation can be summed up in a very few words "The formation of the I.-O. league haa been completed." With four towns in the organization assured Richmond, Van Wert, Piqua jind Anderson and Muncie on the doubtful list, the promoters of the league have been busy for two towns which can positively be counted upon to round out the circuit. Yesterday Mr. Gamble received a letter from the manager of the Huntington, Indiana, team stating that a stock company had been organized there to put a club in tho field and that already the club had lines out for players. He also stated that Kokomo could be counted on to have a fast team this year.

Mr. Gamble will also meet with the representatives of the Kokomo club while in Huntington and it is expected that this club will then become affiliated with the I.-O. league. Runyan Cheeps. Friday Manager Jessup received a letter from Frank Runyan of Bluffton stating that he thought it more than probable that Huntington and Kokomo would join the I.-O. league, as it was an assured fact that, the Northern Indiana league was a dead one. Runyan Concluded his letter with the statement that there would probably be no baseball in Bluffton this year. Towns Proposed. Huntington is a prosperous little city of 10,000 inhabitants and has always been an excellent base ball town. Kokomo has a population of about 14,000 and last year was ono of the best base ball towns in the I.-O. league, the Sv.nday attendance being particularly good.

It is estimated that South America furnishes about (":j per cent of the world's supply of India rubber.

The Hearst Papers Give Assurance.

Washington, D. C, March 7. Democrats were more or less interested today in an announcement in "William Hearst's papers that the Independence league does not intend to nominate Theodore Roosevelt, William J. Bryan or John A. Johnson for president. The league, the announcement says, will nominate its own candidate. Democrats were saying today that the league certainly has their party guessing.

After one of the most successful seasons in the history of the high school, the Richmond basket ball team of the season 1907 and 1908 will disband, having made quite a record for itself. The high school team this year was composed of Juniors and Seniors and was the fastest team that has ever represented the high school. During the season the team played twenty games, winning twelve and losing eight. It was one of the hardest basket ball schedules that has ever been played by the high school team. The schedule contained dates with the fast Varsity club basket ball team of Dayton, the fast Steele high school team, Rushville and Anderson. The high school basket ball team scored 521 points and their opponents

407, giving the local team a total of I

114 points over that of their opponents. The team this year was composed of Thornburg, forward: Harrington, center and forward; Marlatt, guard and center; Allison, forward and guard; Tallant, guard; Crowe, guard; Fisher, guard; Smith, forward; True-

t blood, forward; and Ferling, guard.

All of these men, with the exception of Tallant and Fisher, will be on the

l team next year. These two leave

school in June. Next season will make their second, and tho men remaining ought to be able to make things inter

esting for the other high schools of the state. During the last few games the lo-! cal team has been playing a remarka-1

bly fast game and would make the best of the high school teams in the state hustle to keep pace and this includes the Darlington high school, which claims the state high school championship. The only thing against, the high school basket ball team is that it is $10.10 in debt. The manager, Robert Thornburg, hopes to be able to pay off this as soon as the Alpha Mu Kappas come to the rescue and they have consented to give a candy sale at the high school in the near future. It is probable the high school basket ball team will play, the fast high school teams of Milton, Cambridge City and Centerville before disbanding. The summary of the games played by the team this season is as follows: Nov. 7 Richmond Business College, 6; R. H. S., 46. Nov. 12. R. B. C. 13; R. H. S., 40. Nov. 14 Regis Club, 19; R. H. S. Nov. 19.

Piqua, o., March 7.-C. C. Shank, manager of the Piqua team of the I-O league states that he daily receives communications from President Gamble of Van Wert telling him not to become uneasy in regard to the league, as everything is moving along as nicely as can be expected, and that in all probability Anderson and Muncie will be signed up in a short time. The league must have three Sunday ball towns, and it is impossible to learn at this time, whether or not Sunday ball can be played at Anderson, but in all probability it will be permitted. Manager Sank states that he has received at least fifty letters from base ball players from all parts of the country. He also states that he can get a good team together in this city inside of two weeks when the time comes and none of the men will be signed up until the proper time arrives. The new league has excellent prospects for the coming season, and no doubt Piqua will see some fast ball. Not much can be done until the weather warms up, and then work will be pushed in the league, and when the season opens Piqua will be there with the goods.

Woman Lived Alone After Being Disappointed in Love. Alkntown, Pa., March 7. Mivs Mary A. Egge, one of Allentown"s oldest women, died here suddenly after having lived more than fifty years within a block of a railroad, and for fifteen years close to an electric railway, but without ever having ridden on a steam train or trolley car. She would have been ninety years old tomorrow, but never cared to indulge in the pleasures of a ride on a steam road or trolley line, although often urged to break the rule that she vcd established. Disappointed in a love affair in her girlhood cays, she refused many subsequent offers of marriage, and remained single all her days.
