Habeas Corpus Writ Denied
With Attorneys Cotter and DeArmond, the Law and Enforcement League's lawyers went into Judge Sabath's court Monday afternoon asking for a writ of habeas corpus. The case was continued Wednesday morning. In the meantime, the State's Attorney Hogan had a private hearing before Judge Sabath on Tuesday afternoon with Marlory, in the chambers. Mrs. Jackson's lawyers did not know of this and when they went morning they were denied the writ. They immediately went back to their offices and began what will be a long legal fight before the Supreme court. Attorney Cotter fought hard Wednesday morning, but Sabath denied the motion. To be sure, the case presented a crime, as the child, Mrs. Jackson and her attorney have not had their rights according to the laws of the state. An earnest appeal is made to the people of country to lend their aid and support. The case presented to the Supreme court and there perhaps justice will be given.

NO SEGREGATION IN ARMY TRAINING SCHOOL
By J. M. Batchman
Major General Leonard Wood's suggestion that there should be a segregated training camp established for the Race along the lines of the one recently held at Plattsburg, New York, does not address the city. Your correspondent has sounded sentiment to a considerable extent and finds that the consensus of opinion is that in measures calculated to preserve segregated movements with standards peculiar to any particular class of citizens. Dr. Spingar is working to make such a camp a certainty by appeals to the public. But here is that he would have morphed on success if he attempted to secure recruits for such a camp from the ignorant follow who is incapable of discerning the full effect of accepting such a restriction.
There are regiments of color in the regular army which are ample schools for training men for officers of a few not object to regiments any more than Irish dislike Irish regiments, but the difference lies in the fact that the Irish can belong to ANY regiment and hold a commission, not just past the age of color has been denied chance as a soldier except when the opportunity was presented to hold himself up for a target. Lieutenant Flipper can point out, in joint view, he has not fared like most men the soldier should have. It is time for those who have the welfare of the army at heart to awaken to the fact that inducements the army will stimulate enlistments among men like among others; racial restrictions of whatever character do not add to efficiency, in a soldier or in a man; or men have fought in the past because they have loved to fight for a man's chance. The idea is becoming prevalent that he should be given that chance. Another distinction on the firing line is a call for reinforcements, blacks are as welcome as whites. In time of peace why not give the black man be same chance pay the apaing in the measures of living in the army at the firing line? Any appreciative country can grant nothing less.

Cordela, Ga., March 2—Ocilla Bervins is in jail here awaiting the findings of the coroner's jury, which will investigate one of the most peculiar happenings in the history of this place. A woman living near by saw a dog dig up the body of a baby in the yard of Mrs. Bervins, and before it could be stopped had eaten off one of the arms. Mrs. Bervina denies the statement of a physician that he had attended her at the birth of the child some time ago, and declares that she has not borne a child for four years.

is the Negro's best friend. You may institute an investigation of the entire south, and let them study the uncovered relation that exists and you will find thousands of white men and women whose advice and money have educated thousands of boys and girls of the Race, secured thousands of homes for the poor, and trained lawyers to aid them in business and professional life, have, before the courts of the land, secured help and consideration that could not have otherwise been done. Urge them to earn a living that no other part of the country attempted to offer. Let him alone. I hog to say to 'My Northern Negro at all, advise him to make friends with those with whom he lives. Urge him to train his head, heart and mind, to progress, to progressive, steady in his habits, nominal in his life, to honor the man for whom he works, take care of his interests, frequently commend the poor, and punish the unfitten given him, stay out of court, respectable on the public highway, use his influence in the behalf of the community in which he lives, in fact, teach him, and if you can't teach the Negro the above, "Let him alone."
Now to the southern white man, we beg you to pay no attention to those attacks, for we know you and we love you. We remember with us what you have done and are still doing for us. Don't let the attacks of the northern intruders lessen your interest in us for as long as time lasts the beguilting of the enemy to "share with you the burdens of the dear old southland." We love our green climate, green grass, green fields, and all that there is to enjoy. We stand at the best white man and Negro stand swearingly together until the Prince of Calvary, the Redeemer of the World shall say, "Well done thou good and faithful servants, come up higher."
539 Depot street, Winston-Salem, N. C. Shades of Jeschophus. N. C. Has ever a member of the Race anywhere who ex-
poses his description, emanating from what must be considered, is a skunk with the poison blood of the low-browed villain who runs riot throughout this section and raps and raps in his heart, flowing through veins? What matter of man, you will ask, can this be who will stoop to plead for the decayed progeny of a group who uses them as weapons and prostitutes and have and will murder any member of the Race who dares to raise his voice in protest? Winston-Salem is no cleaner along this line than any other of the race, and the gravity stalks through the community. It is a common thing to hear a half-white man or woman boast that there have been "no black faces in the family" and that the victim is known, right here in this hole of iniquity to take the lighter skinned litigates into their homes and raise them as their own children. It may be that a man is proud of some of this "crooked" that is coursing through his own veins. What should be done with worms of his description is this: A committee of men and after giving him night and after giving him hot tar and cold feathers, ride

Supreme Court Hands Down Adverse Decision; Had Little Support in His Fight From His Party
BY A STAFF CORRESPONDENT OF THE
CHICAGO DEFENDER
St. Louis, Mo., March 2—Word reached this city Monday that Mr. Charles E. Turpin, the popular proprietor of the Booker Washington Theater, on market street, had lost his suit before the Supreme court of the state. Mr. Turpin was elected to the office of constable at the election in 1943 on the Republican ticket; he was opposed by Anthony W. Powers, a white Democrat, who was elected on the face of the returns. Mr. Powers outweighed the elector, who the decision of the Circuit Court. The decision of the Supreme Court, which holds the evidence shows Powers was elected and that there is no provision in the constitution for the office of constable in St. Louis, reverses the decision of the lower court. Judge him out of town on a train. A ride in the Jim Crow cars used in and out of here has been made for him, loves the folks who have forged his people into them so well. He says that we remember with a full heart what you have done for us. It is simply amazing to see in the south to learn of cases of this kind. This burn represents nobody and nothing. He has, by this rotten outfit, been a victim of the fellow who passed the cake the man who had stolen his ice cream. He says, "Let the white man alone." That advice should have been given is: "Have these white men do that that's just what we will be doing as on the sun hits both sides of the street."
Lawyer Barnett—The question's out to the people right as to the position of the governor. W. G. Cowan—Well, I knew I had fight. Anderson proved to be the pea-faced winner. Louis B. Anderson—I am a deeply indebted to the people and to the Chicago Defender and I will assure them that my dealings will be purely squared. I wish to thank all their loyalty. The Chicago Defender earnestly hopes the force will unite now and defeat Wendy Wong in the election by voting for Mr. Anderson.

PIN LOSES SUIT
Graves wrote the opinion, of the Race of this city borough, since this suit has been heard at Mr. Turpin has been designee, the Re-ordinator of the office held the office since the election and the case has not been hastened on the dock-though there have been instances where no more important cases have been heard in the public seemed to require it. The Turpin case was allowed to drag. It is expected that there will be some resentment shown the city organization, for this case, in instance of their double-crossing the Negro thegeregulation election last year was one, and some of this same old gang is up for the voters' consideration. They should be told, every mother's son of them. A dog would be better for the lice in this city.

MISS MAUDE J. ROBERTS
IN RECITATION ON MARCH 14
BENE SHOEI to communicate her sentiments with unusual beauty and quality, is smokes Miss Maude J. Roberts the are singer of Chicago. She uses aging, laughter, taste and enunciation in delightful concert last year at Lincoln Center that she was a wonderful artist. Washington Eagle, speaking of Miss Chicago, Illinois, a soprano of first caliber, epil of Herman Devries, was the st at the third annual 'Revue of W at the third annual Conservatory. Friday, 21, 1918. Miss Chicago is wonderful both in range and, and in the capacity for handling positions involving the most intricate interpretation the recorder and the oboe, a clientele rated as the most difficult to please.

If You Can't Do Anything Well Yourself, Be a Critic
When the curtain went up on the first act of the Smart Set Co.'s new vehicle, "How Newtown Prepared," on Monday night, the Grand was packed from pit to peanut heaven the packeress being the executive, sensitive through that ever graced the sensitive through that ever presence, enthusiasm running high. All this was properly justified, as the entertainment offered by the famous comedian, Salem Tutt Whitney, and his aggregation of forty (more or less), was in order. The chorus is a wonder, and it would be beneficial if the stuggers of some of the theaters seen in the loop would drop out and take a slant at the results of the director's efforts along that line with this troupe. It's clock-work; that's what works. It is handled in that production, and it makes any Scaley it wasn't noticeable from the theater. Scaley might think that because two performances are given nightly that there has been a bunch of cut-outs made; such is not the fact, as the program is rendered number for number, and, as a result, the set that makes the money-spenders sit with it and it isn't done with a bit of carelessness, eye-ther. The simple comedy of Salem Tutt Whitney is refreshing; at no time does he overdo his work: as a result the big audience is with him from the start, and Whitney keeps up a continuous upfront. When it is a large part of the dwellings, there are others in the cast who show extreme cleverness. Chief among these is the

The last half week held over Joe Sheffell's Eight Black Dots and they retained the popularity which they once had in the first half, the bill opened with an athletic novelty, The Harms Trio, and they did well. Following them The Panama Trio, a clever cabaret offering, created a great impression. The three girls were so dazzling as a consequence they can be said to be greatly responsible for the crowded houses of the half. They were billed as Corn, Brick and Florence, and made good. The Alimic Four, two men and two girls, were novelty, and the greatest of all the Race's ventriloquists, resting off the covering of a bunch of big time, Frank Rogers, completed the bill. It has been told since the since Frank has been seen on the Street, and the greatest of all the revelation to many who were not acquainted with his remarkable ability.
Tuskegee Institute, Ala., Mar. 2.—The teachers and students here are eagerly waiting for March 6, for on that date both of the Lincoln Picture Collection and both of the Lincoln Picture Collection Co. productions—The Trooper of Troop K. and The Realization of a Negro's Ambulance—will present closed negotiations for the double engagement with the manager of the New Orleans branch of the company, and is authorizing the statement that he will all of the pictures should be shown at the Institute, as he considered them the best ever made by members of the Race and that the picture the world of picture-dom. This engagement will be the best recommendation that films of this description have ever had, and it is a certain that they will prove the sensuality of the pictures. D. Ireland Thomas has the New Orleans branch and deserves great credit for making this engagement.

CIVILIZATION
CIVILIZATION
The greatest battle drama that was ever enacted before the eyes of your dutiful observer is Mr. Inees's "Civilization" which plays at the States theater Friday and Saturday of the present season. The show doesn't suggest, it does. It boldly and thrillingly nets forth in actual pictures the processes of a wonder imagination. The man, woman or child who, unmoved, can sit through this lince masterpiece needs a sudden doctor—a slow, too late. It is original, huge, scanning and artistic. It is an entertainment on an artistic level with "Ben Hur."
From a spectacular viewpoint "Civilization" is a wonder play. Starting circumstances follow each other in rapid succession, each elapsing the preceding one, until the brain is in a whirl from all the seemingly impossible and surprising events unfolded to view. Mirrors appear to be performed before the very eyes. The camera has been taken from the camera and has responded to the magic touch of the camera out wavering or in the least disclosing how the mysterious and tremendous effects, so thrilling and inspiring, were accomplished. Here is a document from the pen of Mr. Ince himself which will be presented to the judges. Defender stage section the diameter of the remarkable man responsible for this and other great productions.
Dedication
Nearly nineteen hundred years ago the Son of God, as he stood in the temple in Jerusalem, was asked, "Which is the first commandment of all?" He replied, "You shall love the Lord, thy God." Then he said, "You and the second are like unto it. Then shalt love thy neighbor as thyself." There is no commandment greater than these. Today the great sorrowful eyes of the blackened fields, where the bodies of men are strewn as grains of wheat; upon faming, shattered hamlets and stricken firesides.
As He listens to the screaming shells, this is the greatest gloom all the ghastly symphonies of the worst mankind has ever known. His heart must recognize the bitter truth in the statement of one of the world's foremost educators—that in nineteen centuries civilization has ever honestly taught of Jesus Christ.
This is an allegorical story of a war that has laughed at the world's daunting boast of a higher progress. It does not concern itself as to which side is in the right which is in the wrong with those tasks which are paying the grim penalty—the ranks of the grim penalty.
If the unwilful trail of battle stretches vividly through the scenes of the war, rative, it is in the hope that a knocked vote itself more earnestly to the cause of peace, let it primarily to the cause of our civilization not be a sacrifice of our cherished ideals, but rather a synonym of that glorious work — humanity.
Dedicated to that vast, pitiful army whose tears have grilled the universe—the mothers of the dead—Thos. I. luce.

There was only one fault and that was Geo.'s will: it was too cold and bad for my set, to get out, and see it. The Trooper of Troy K. was 16-17, were $1155, the house seating 35. I want another just as soon as you release, and if the Trooper comes this again, I want it sure. With best wishes for success over our years.

It is very fitting that the Pickford theater should present the great Artcraft releases which feature the celebrated star, Mary Pickford. Messrs. Messrs. Pickford own owners and managers of this popular theater, so doubt recognized this fact, they have adopted the policy of presenting only the best air the photo play line, it will not be surprising to the readers of Defender to learn that all these reels are the most honored star in the leading role, will be known at the Pickford from time to time.
Mary Pickford has an uncontrollable desire to adopt homeless animals. As a result, her studio can present almost any kind of a two-legged or fourfooted specimen she needs a home. In Less Than Dust Miss Pickford had a sacred cowl and a cane. Her famous duck, Hula, this swam all the way from Chicago to New York in her room. She has a hawking room, has become an actress. She made her debut in The Pride of the Clan, the new Pickford-Aircraft picture, which comes to the Pickford for the two days. Wednesday and Thursday, July 7 and August 1, she did not a well fed, sleek and contended body cat, but one whose appearance would denote detection and misery. The second day of the picture taking Mary Pickford the kitten carefully cared in a miliary She had picked it up in a dessert city near one of the ferryes.
The action of the play takes place on an island off the western coast of Scotland, where great sorrow is called to hearts of the poverty stricken islanders in the loss of the cheftain and several members of the Clim MacTayles. According to the law of the old land, pretty Margaret MacTayles succeeds her father in the head of the clan, in her sweet way to the palms and their families with a spirit of blessing. The days and nights come and go with them the simple courtship of little Campbell, a young fisher-lad, who has a heart, on the top of her hugging hat, with a smile dearly contended with with her sweetness, and takes away her honey smile and throws a dark cloud over her future happiness, Alene, and with a breaking heart, she sets out to sea in an old fishing hull, within sight of land, to founder. Within sight of land, she found miserably in her cabin. It is her trusted companion for animals that solves the suspense of these awful moments and restores her to the arms of her sweetheart. In the action she names the name of Mary Pickford, the such are such as Mary Moore Warren Cook, Kathryn Brown Moore Edward Fosseman, Joel Day and others equally as prominent.

LINCOLN UNIVERSITY BREAKS VANDALS' WINNING STREAK Takes the Measure of the Crack Quintette on Neutral Court
BY RUSSELL C. CAUTION Special Representative of the Chicago Defender, who Covered the Game Especially for the World's Greatest Weekly.
---
Philadelphia, Pa., March 2—Muscalef Fund Hall was packed and jammed with a raid crowd of basket ball enthusiasts. They have been waiting for many weeks for the classic of the season. Lincoln University vs. Vandal A. C. The basket ball was nearly packed when the preliminary startled. Just as the first half of the preliminary game was over the immense throng of Vandal followers, who followed from the seashore on a special train, argyre and were greeted by a crowd of friends from the Lincoln enthusiasts. In the preliminary game the Vandal seconds had a walkaway, defeating the Lincoln seconds, 30 to 15.
Pollard Tosses First Ball
Two minutes after the preliminary was over the Vandall big five trotted on the court amidst thunderous applause. The Lincoln Varsity appeared a moment later and in a tremendous overtance after Laurie Larry, the center, was unable to play and Sullivan of the second team was chosen to work in his place. W. Young, the crack Lincoln guard, who had been injured in Pittsburgh, appeared in practice and started the game since the second game in Pittsburgh. After short warm-up both teams lined up for the game. Here Referee Wachenfeld announced that he had a surprise in store, and Dr. Laws, amidst thunderous applause, insisted. Prod. Pollard,
or Paladin scored the first ball. At

Howard then put the Vandalls ahead, converting a Lincoln offense into a point. Young missed a free throw and the Vandalls missed a free loss. With the score at 28 all the referee called a foul. Lincoln called for time out. Lincoln took two minutes over the allotted two minutes to get up and end and race up. This is the fourth of their stunt. They got away with it clean. The Vandalls would not take the foul for the extra time and the referee apparently forgot that he had called a foul. They got up and tipped off. Brisie got the bell at one end of the court and dribled through the entire University five and rang up a double decker from the center of the floor, putting the Vandalls ahead two feet. He put the Vandalls ahead for Hilton. Young everted it up, scoring from a scrimmage under his own basket. He followed with two tallies from the field in rapid succession, making the 24-24 for Lincoln just as the final whistle blew.

New York, March 2.—The novice tournament is over and according to form and to the satisfaction of the management and the club members, it finished and the first prize, a handshake and cupping 9 games and losing 1. Second honors went to Aaron Stancell, prize, gold chain and knife. Third prize went to Harry Delpass. The high run of the tournament is held by DePass and Stancell. Each of the eleven contestants deserve much credit for their promptness and interest in this tournament, as it is among the present novices they expect to get. The winners of this 1917 novice showed the men for next season's class tournaments. * Wednesday evening is the regular meeting night for the executive members, at which time the committee on the print and the winners of this novice tournament will have them for distribution. They are in book form. Come out early, as the steward says: there will be something doing. * The secretary is getting the entries for the finals of class D and the championship take place in March. * Willie Williams, winner of a club tournament, and one of the charter members of the club, caught Manager Wilts off of his game the other way round, four 50-point games out of six. Well, when last he was on his way—in. * Mr. Blunt, one of the charter members, was in the other evening, and had a filing at the ivories, just to hear the winner taking one over on the house committee. The big question now is, who will win the much-coveted Willis Round Robin trophy this year. Franewell says he has a place that just fits it, to put it in the box. He will have three times to be retained as his prize. It is now held jointly by George Regenbien, 1914; G. I. Williams, 1915; F. Franewell, 1916. Now, who will win it in 1917.

THE PITTTSBURG SCHOLASTICS Fast basket ball tossers of the Smoky City who are drawing crowds to their games
Pittsburg Scholastics Humble Cleveland Owls
ST. CHRISTOPHER TRIMS HAMPTON INSTITUTE QUINT
Pittsburgh, Pa., March 2.—Amazed and dazed in all departments by the clever basketball technique of the Scholastics, the formidable Cleveland, Ohio, basketball team, known as the Mycus, mycus, mycus. The Mycus, former Howard star athlete and holder of Ohio half mile record, were humbly defeated here on the night of Washington's birthday. Score, 35 to 21. Although the results show the Scholastics undoubtedly victorious nothing can state how rigidly the chaps of the Mycus are. Red and Gray onslaught. Leaving the affair to the large patriotic assemblage it was the greatest game ever played here. Thrillers, such as dazzling passes, intercepted plays, systematic teamwork and clever shooting had the Cleveland team, the Mycus, wishers and supporters on the verge of insult. Fortunately the Scholastics tucked the first half well under the pillow. Score 17 to 6. Great Scott! the Owls, true to their name, disturbed the peaceful slumber in the team as soon as the playing resumed. Ramses, the son giving a great account of themselves. A peaceful murmur given the Scholastics by Coach Matson was dem-

HAMPTON
By Lawrence-A. Lee
Hampton, Va., March 2—The Hampton Institute basketball team was defeated by the Red and Black machine of New York City for the second time this season on Washington's birthday. Hampton put up a stiff battle for the victory, but the New Yorkers' fortifications were too strong to be penetrated, hence the victory was won by St. Christopher.
In the early part of the first half, both teams scored alternately, and the score was kept even for some time. But after both teams had scored eight points, the bishopster players seemed to have made a mistake, and they left the Virginiaans. This they did to a great extent. Then the parish boys piled up scores, while Hampton was making two more points during this half, which ended 18 to 10 in the visitors' favor.

VANDALS GAME TO THE CORE
In response to the inference of several New York clubs and New York sports scribes, that two of the most important and hard earned victories of the Vandal basket ball team were won with the aid of a defensive force, it behooves me to state that Dr. Yates in those two victories, officiated his first game for the Vandal A. C. the night of the Alpha game. His second game was the Carlton-Vandal game. Dr. Yates is in Carlton-Vandal and a registered A. A. U. reference. I am assigned to Alpha and Carlton teams, before they left Atlantic City, informed me they were perfectly satisfied with his officiating. Referee Yates also officiated in the Carlton-Vandal assigning his total to three games at Atlantic City. Blackburn of the Southwest "Y." Philadelphia, has officiated in all other important games and given entire satisfaction. In the Pittsburgh independents, they are a newly organized club, and I have done nothing to date to deserve recognition. It was three years before the Vandals could secure "big game." Also members of the Vandal A. C. basket ball team are a living and indulgent athlete for the Vandal game. I am now being arranged with St. Christopher on Manhattan Casino court.
The Vandals played Lincoln university at Musical Fund hall, Philadelphia, last Monday night. Lincoln asked for Monday night, the old hall of New York. They got him. It may be missed the Vandals lost that game. While and seeking any alibi, we must mention the fact that Arthur Laurie, the crack Vandal center, whose stellar play several New York teams can attest, was unimpressed by the death of his mother. While Sullivan, the team played a good game, he was in company too fast for him. As to Referee Watchenfold, we cannot say too much. He is an A. A. U. registered referee, but that there was much criticism over the many remarks heard after the game. The result of this game ties the series for the Vandal-Lincoln silver trophy.
put forth all of its latent energy with hopes of overtaking the 8-point lead in the half, but the cavaliers had gained in the first half, and Christopher boys was so dazzling that the Seasideers had to spend most of the time playing a defensive game. Captain Edwards of Thampton played his usual good game, eagling the ball four times. The man of mystery is Robson, St. Charles athletic forward. His work was excellent.
Whew! 28 to 20
As the half went on, the led and
Black machine continued to climb, and
the blue and White boys except slowly
upward, but were unable to overtake
their opponents, so the half ended 28
to 26 as the final score. Thus ended one
of the fastest and cleanest basketball
basketball that has ever been exhibited
in any gymnasium. Much credit is due
the Seaside machine for the fighting
spirit that they exhibited. This is the
first time since 1913 that the Hampton-
ians have gone down to defeat at home.

St. Louis, Mo., March 2—Last Friday night at the Future City Athletic Club,
"Rough House" Wares of New Orleans gained Referee Sam Dixon's decision over "Battling" Jim Johnson of New Orleans after twelve minutes of nillimbing weighted 185 pounds to Johnson's 215. The fight for the most part was a hugging match and most of the clean hitting was done by the small-footed weight bats at the Pine street arena. Friday night's main feature was a disappointment. Robert Swanson earned the decision in four rounds. The boys are lightweights and they furnished the fans with the real exhibition of the evening, standing toe to toe and exchanging punches through the bumps. Bobby Dukes scored a knockout on "Young" Marcelia in the fourth round of a scheduled six-round contest at 125 pounds. In the opening fight, "Rough House" Johnny four rounds at 124 pounds.

By Yours Truly
Cincinnati, Ohio, March 2—Fighting tooth and nail and using every art and trick of the pastime known to skilled players, the Wabash Heavies of the Chicago "Z" and our Invincibles, undoubted best exponents of basket ball in the country, have been coming out to 20 score, the Cook county lads coming out of the maze on the short end.
This game, the like of which has never been seen hereabouts, was played before by the great Browns of whom were partied in their rooting, applauding the great Wabash in the executions of his famous dribble equally as much as when Gray, the pride of the Chicago loose, Ye, "bo, the Blowett was Gray
Yours truly, in last week's issue, told you it would be some battle and the result more than made good that statewide great Hull, destined to become the booming star. Upon his heels appeared Brown, the century-pounder of the Indian crew, closely followed by Speed, the captain, began as "Mace," the demon forward, joined by "Aero" Penn and the lyrical tenor, Simms, supplemented the sterling quartette amid applause. When the engine itself, the crew, applauded the applause of the crowd held sway for two minutes. All that was needed was the gas, and that came in the form of Woodson, the giant center. In 1994 Coach Kindle entered the gym doors, being followed by Capt. Blewitt, Duff, Thomas, Lewis, Anderle Winsen and Harrison. The building rang with cheers for these clean-cut athletes, the audience realizing that upon their arrival, they hoped old Fort Denhorn. It was so hopeful that number four was the great Blewett and all eyes centered upon the beefy little star. Running him closely for popular star, the lightning forward, and Thomas, the massive center, whose smile never wore off.
The entire team's shooting in practice elicited qualms of fear and no little worry to the hearts of the doubters to overcome the crows. Coaches Kindle and Gibson on their entire crews were called to the center by Referee Gamblele, who explained a few points. All minor details arranged, the players cagely awaited the whistle. The team stillness in which a pin-fall can be heard. After a seemingly interminable delay the call came and Thomas, securing the jump, gave the ball to Blevillw, as usual. The Maroon and White buzzer. As usual, the Maroon and White buzzer up the rear in the first half, the margin, however, being slight. The second half, though, dished up some real basket ball. Gray and Blevillw vying with the Maroon. Hull were caging long shots and Woody ringing up the sure ones. Anderson and Penn put in overtime at guard duty. More thrills were given the spectators in this game than the combined movies five years. A duplicate of this game will be brought forth March 10th, when these star attractions clash again in Chicago. Whatever the admission do not fall to see this battle, "they's 'Loyal Band' to secure a special car for this occasion.
Padron Pitches One Hit, No Run Game
Palm Beach, Fla., March 2—The Lincoln Giants of New York had things pretty much their own way with "String Bean" Williams in the box and held the American Giants safe till the ninth inning, when a three-run rally threw a big scare in the camp of the Gotham boys, but, however, did not win the game, as the Giants were caught in the fourth frame, when he hit one of Johnson's curves for a triple, with two men on the bags. Rube Foster used up twelve of his sturdy athletes during the struggle. Poles and Williams of the New York team hit the hitting tape of a day's play, retiring it tied up the series.
Foster seems very satisfied with the way the men are working out and says that the fans of Chicago will be wild when they see Tyres and Dixon in action this summer. The men are seen last, but may round out into first class form before the season starts. DeMoss, Barber, Lloyd and Charleston got away with one hit apiece in this game. The rest went down without a semblance of getting into the hit tournament. The score:

Indianapolis, Indiana, March 2. — Field of night, before the largest of team season, the strong Wabash aggreed down before our stronger aggregation of basketball tossers by the score of 23 to 16. The Chicago boys, with an overwhelming victory over the local boys early in the season, entered the game quite confident of victory, while the Indianapolis had, smarting under this defeat, went into the game with the never-die fighting spirit, which brought them through victorious. The invincible Thomas was unable to score a point during the entire game, so closely was he guarded by Gilmer of the Indians. The on-rushing and mighty Capitol Blitzers were quite in control to dribble down the floor and shoot. With these two sterling players rendered horses de combat by the close guarding of the locals, the remaining members of the team were quite in control to manage to score two field goals, which was more than any other member of his team registered. Wheeler of the Indianapolis team, who is considered by the writer one of, if not the fastest and most skilled of any team in this section of the country, scored two field goals, the largest number scored by any member of either team during the evening. His fighting spirit was an inspiration to the other members of the team. Pattiford at guard and Gilmer at center, both of whom were local boys. Captain Bluett scored 10 of his team's 16 points. The game was very fast, though rough at times. Both teams being offenders in roughness, and Referee Jackson had to warn both teams of the next game will be with the fast Cincinnati team on March 9.

Palm Beach, Fla., March 2.—For the second time this season the American Giants shut out the Lincoln Giants and time it was done in such a tolling manner that it was done by the Pettus' were on the short end of a 7 to 4 humiliation, too, when they received one hit, First Baseman Pettus getting credit for that one. Paddon pitched wonderful ball, midseason form, what I mean, Duncan had to try to stop Pettus liner in deep center for the mitts on it long enough to hold it. Had he accomplished this seemingly impossible feat he would have done much to help Paddon to a no hit, no run game. It was a great day for baseball. It was a great day for baseball in the first half of the first inning, Hewitt reached on DeMoss' grounder and Duncan reached second, coming all the way home when Williams uncovered a pitch in the sixth Duncan hit. Williams for another hit was a clean one, too, and the New Yorker's pride looked wabby. Joe Williams is a mighty pitcher, but he was up against a mighty clever ball club with a manager with oodles of gray gloves. He was promptly moved Duncan along with a neat sacrifice. Pete Hill waded into one of Joe's offerings and it went for two sucks, scoring Duncan. Lloyd came through with a single and Pete legged it in the first inning. Joe was legged in a door nail" trying to make second base on the play.
Four more runs fell into the coffers of the Giants in their half of the eighth. Padron opened with a shashing single, Duncan opened with a shading single, and Charleston scored on a wild pitch. Duncan moving up to third on the same play, DeMoss strolled and stole second. Hill hit between third and short. Wallace going after the ball, but fumbling it long enough to let Duncan score and Wallace Charleston drew a base on balls. Allen sent a long fly to Poles and DeMoss scored after the catch. Grant doubled over third, moving Charleston up to third. Petway ended the fly by grounding in the third score:

H. A. CASHIN GIVES ADVICE
Decatur, Ala. March 2—Hon. H. A. Cashin, lawyer and through Race man spoke here and his hearses were astonishing. He spoke of the spolten truths. He spoke on the "Nexx Migration," and, unlike the other speakers, he told his hearers that one never would respect them. He told his people to go north, that the land would not respect them, and would not respect them. He shook his hand when he said not to sell your farms and pay money to unclever or labor agents, but to go there and see what they could do. Members of the Race were glad to know that they had a man to run who would stand up for his own people.
