SEEING KANSAS - TOPEKA AN APPEARANCE SUPPRISE AGREEABLE SURPRISE — AN ACCOUNT OF ITS COLORED PEOPLE IN THE POPULATION AND THEIR PROSPERITY. (By Ralph W. Tyler.) Topeka, Kans.-In my perambulation, information respecting the status of men in the business world, I have not, as it might be suspected, confined my visit to the business world. That is a most interesting field for exploration, study and exploitation. I have visited many of the race study Greek and Latin, in with no expectation of ever using a Greek yoroglyphic or ever tracing the Greek yoroglyphic word. I have visited the middle West where the hurry chase for the "all-around" race is being made sense, and a "Sockless," Jerry Simpson hayed to turn back its clock of progression, and I found the theories. When I came to Topeka, I was not prepared to believe that the Negro in this section was making such a difference in the business world I find evidence on every hand. The success the race is achieving and the segregation to usher in topeka has not nished a denial to the statement that it absolutely requires obstructive discrimination and segregation to usher in topeka. In Topeka the Negro votes, his vote is counted, and he has been honoured. Out here his homes are not segregated, and he has a pretty fair chance to "mix" with his homes in terms of intimacy without restriction. They have a strong Local Business League here in Topeka, and in all my years there exists a strong, active business league there we find the race making wonderfully rapid progress along business trails, and the guest of Mr. John M. Wright, whose name and high standing is the black, and who is a man that has been untiring in his efforts to push Topeka Negroes to the fore in business, and who are forty-two lines of business activities in which the Negro is actively represented in this city, fifteen trades and six professions in which he is engaged. There is a pretty fair recognition of black in the distribution of political black in the distribution of political black in the distribution of political black is shown by the fact that the city gives employment to thirty, the county to twenty, the state to twenty, the federal Government to eight. It was really encouraging, and even a revelation, and the represser in so many trades where he worked politically and the dominant race, numerically, greatly exceeds the Negro. Topeka a Negro baker, one blacksmith, one boiler maker, one cabinet maker, nineteen electricians, two glaziers, one harness maker, two hand and two steam launchers, two printers, four newspapers, one photographer, two second hand goods stores, seven plumbers, two merchant tailors, eight painters, four newspapers, one photographer, two second hand goods stores, feed and grain dealers, three hotels, eight painters, two paving and two dressmakers, twelve dyers and cleaning companies, five cafes five coal and wood dealers, six ladies' tailors, twelve music teachers, twelve grocers and seventy business companies are represented by the race. The public schools of Topeka are many, and the public schools are many prevailing, and both pupils and teachers intelligently and enthusiastically prepare for better education for the race. Prof. John Harrison, a former Ohioan, is the principal of the high school, and the board of education has given him a fine, model tree, principal of one of the graded schools, is just as enthusiastically and well-prepared. Negro boys and girls for advancement. Some years ago, in a national convention, in rural, designee arose, and in convention with "What's the matter with Kansas?" "She's all right!" came the response. "She should inquire of me. What's the matter with the Negroes of Topkaka?" I would promptly and enthusiastically knowledge of I have of the progress they have made and are making in business. I would add, "Wish the had many imitators in other cities." And a Kansas Negro does not have to follow a Kansas wherever he goes, and you will find that he will woo and win success. And those coming here with Sue Shea will inoculated with the virus of success. MT. STERLING, KY. The High School Commencement. Special to THE FREEMAN The commencement of the Mt.

This play house will be located at the corner and will prove to be one of the best in the city for the colored people with nothing but the first class vaudville and clothes. Mrs. W. O.

All matter should be addressed to THE FREEMAN PUBLISHING COMPANY, INDIANAPOLIS, INDIAA, New Phone 2880. SATURDAY, JUNE 27, 1914. Having the weather you read about. Ice has taken on that goodish look that coal has in the winter time. This vicinity is doing a thriving business in June brides. If it means that love is to be warm this June is certainly the month. Today, Saturday, June 27, 1914, at the Veleldrome D'Hiver, Jack Johnson, Negro, champion heavyweight fighter of the world, battles with Frank Moran, white. It is not generally thought that Moran has any show against the champion notwithstanding his youth and strength. The result of the mock contest for mayor of the city of Indianapolis at the Y. M. C. A., ending last Monday evening, was the selection of George L. Knox for that important office. Mr. Knox was the Democratic candidate, and as such was most stubbornly opposed, the Progressive candidate being the most aggressive rival. Other candidates stood for the Republican and Prohibition parties. The late John G. Jones, of Chicago, was the greatest colored Mason in the world. He was the National Grand Potentate of the Ancient Arabic Order of Shriners and Baughters of Sphinx of North and South America. It is said that he had the only right of the Ancient Arabic Order of Daughters of Sphinx in this country. He was a worthy citizen; an exmember of the legislature. He died in that city June 7th. Some people insist on contributing legs, et cetera, to the Fourth of July patriotism. Well, patriotism is a great civic virtue, perhaps the highest; but it can be celebrated in some other way. In the India, of other days, it is said that a religious ceremony required the casting of babes in the path of a huge car called the juggernaut. In our Fourth of July celebrations we are not so conscious of our sacrifices, but we get there just the same. The Mexican situation, for the present, is being left for the Mexicans to thresh out. It is thought that the chance of the issuance of peace from their conferences is good. To reckon without Carranza, the formidable revolutionist, was well nigh hopeless. It was like leaving Hamlet out of the play. Our government is only interested in peace no matter how it comes about. It is ready to agree to any peaceful arrangement that the factions may bring about. The well-known philanthropist, Julius Rosenwald, has agreed to provide money to erect rural schoolhouse in Newspaper of the South Atlantic a conference with Booker T. Washington he said he would duplicate whatever is raised for that purpose in any Southern community. The location of the schools and the details of their construction will be left to the Tuskegee Institute. Mr. Rosenwald is already known for his good gifts to colored Y. M. C. A.'s. In this respect he has proven of incalculable help to the race. Now he comes with another splendid offering. Owing to the nature of his gifts, no other individual has been more helpful to the Negroes of this country. He, seemingly, has studied the peculiar need, and acted accordingly, giving his money where it does the most good. The children of Muncie, Ind., have signed the following pledge in the interest of the city beautiful: "I want Muncie to be clean and beautiful. I will not throw litter or dirt of any kind into the streets or alleys or on the lawns. I will not deface buildings, fences or sidewalks. I will not unnecessarily cross or trample down grass or grass plots. I will not break down shrubbery or pers without the permission of the owner. I will help to keep the front yard stock yard of my own home possible. I will always Mucle is MY city, make it neat and been everywhere pledge. And back up to it. It negotiation and there are us, and are not will be seen in T. Wash- the grow- feature as busi- for engag- of Tuske- beginning. Failure is impossible when brawn and sense are rightly applied. The schools are teaching the sense. We have the brawn. It is the life—for some of us as it is for some of every people. DR. BOOKER T. WASHINGTON CON DR. BOOKER T. WASHINGTON CON WITH JULIUS ROSEWALD. Last week Dr. Booker T. Washington, of the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute, visited Chicago for the purpose of reporting to Mr. Julius Rosenwald, the Chicago philanthropist, regarding the use that has been made of certain monies appropriated by Mr. Rosenwald a short while ago for the purpose of building schoolhouses in some of the rural districts of the South. In each case the people of the community were asked to do as much as they could toward the building of the school house by making cash contributions, or contributions in materials, or labor. The report made by Dr. Washington was so satisfactory that Mr. Rosenwald has decided to go ahead with the experiment on a large scale, and has agreed to duplicate dollar for dollar whatever sum is raised in any rural district in the South for school house buildings. The experiment which Dr. Washington has been carrying out has been kept very quiet, for the reason that Mr. Rosenwald was anxious to test out the experiment before making any public announcement regarding it. One of the crying needs in the South is good school houses in the country districts where a majority of our people live. Until this need is met the masses of our people will in a large measure remain in ignorance. The securing of these school houses through the generosity of Mr. Rosenwald marks a long step forward in the advenance of our race. Any number of communities in the South will, it is expected, within a few months meet the conditions demanded by this gift. Every time a school house is built in one of these country communities it will bring new hope and confidence to our people. COLORED PRISONER ORDERED DISCHARGED. Ray Wilson, alias Marie Wilson, through her attorney, John Browder, filed a petition for a writ of habeas corpus in Marion circuit court on Thursday, June 18th. The petitioner alleged, together with other things, that she was illegally held and deprived of her liberty in the Indiana Woman's prison; that by one Marguerite Elliott she was forced to do manual labor each and every day that she was so held without compensation; that she was being held under a void judgment for reason the city court was without jurisdiction to adjudge her to manual labor in the workhouse at the rate of one day for each dollar of the judgment and cost assessed against a female for the violation of a city ordinance. The defendant was represented by the attorney-general, who at once held that the plaintiff's contention was good and recommended her discharge from further custody. Judge Remster, of Marion circuit court, immediately entered judgment ordering that the petitioner be released at once. The decision is important for reason that the majority of the women who get sent out to the prison are colored, this is to the fact that in many instances they are not able to pay their fine and cost, and since 1905 this illegal method of sentencing female prisoners has been going on. The above speaks for itself, consequently rancorous comment is not necessary. The development nevertheless suggests a thought or so. One is that those administering the laws are sometimes careless, just as those are, sometimes, who make them. The attorney, Mr. Browder, showed the court that the woman was sentenced in part to do manual labor, when the city was without such jurisdiction. We are not particularly concerned in having a lot of idle women in prison. There are some duties that go with imprisonment, whether set out in the law or not. But when it comes to doing tasks, men's work, women in prison are no more fitted to do it than women out of prison. The institution is degrading enough without the jobs. A woman is still a woman even though a prisoner. The offense that took her there may be the same that is taking place with many who are not caught and sent to prison. This is merely a plea for womanhood, and not a thing of sympathy for crimes. A woman cannot be, or should not be converted into a lost soul in a night; at least, not any more so than her more fortunate sisters; that is to say, the imprisonment cannot, or should not act so immediate as to reverse her life the moment its doors close on her. We, the world, have some such view, making great differences between the apprehended and the unapprehended—the caught and uncaught. And perhaps society demands some such distinction, but at that, this age of reformation cries for salvation for those who are all but lost. The unhesitating stand of the court and the attorney-general was proof of the illegality of the sentence as well as the unwisdom. It was proof of the spirit of prison reform; the discharge, since the woman had served only one-half of the days. Mr. Browder is to be congratulated in bringing the thing to pass, and, of course, the attorney-general. Not in the interest of idle women prisoners, but in the interest of women prisoners who have no more tasks than the average housewife. To shut them up from society is the punishment; to treat them humanely is the reformation—its possibility.

COLLEGE PRODUCT EXPECTS VICTORY OVER BIG SMOKE Fight Dopester Sizes Up White Hope and Speculates on Chances. PARIS, June 4.—If Frank Moran, of Pittsburgh, is not heavyweight champion, he will be Johnson here Saturday night, the aforesaid Frank will be much surprised. It is true, Moran thinks he wins—really thinks so or I'm no judge. Moran was tapering off in his training when he went out to see him at Bury Suit Palace, a strong, active and with the clear eye and rosy skin of the well-trained fighter. After he looked him over I thought that he would be he can bring home the bacon—about $1,000,000 worth—when he meets the big blast. And he sure thinks so. Moran was quick to tackle Lewis, the old-time scraper from the east side, and Tom Hatton were on the backside. Moran took Lewis, quick, a real box, and mighty little on Moran when they sparred. Neither Kennedy nor Hatton knew anything like the white hope's strength. Is Fast on Feet. Moran was lightning fast on his feet he boxed so well that Lewis rarely up to Kennedy and Hatton with stiff short-arm lefth which made them back away early in the rounds. This short-arm lefth, too, soon aids, the blow which will beat Johnson. He thinks that Johnson's dissipated life must have got to his stomach, and be freckled fast once he can sink his big freckled fast once he can sink his middriff, the negro will soon forget all his cleverness and be easy picking. Moran's a lot of people who think Johnson can't be beaten," Moran said to me. "Well, they thought that of Sullivan, didn't they? They thought Johnson didn't they? It's the same thing with Johnson now. No man can follow the primrose path (he said that-Moran's as a fighter. Johnson's had his day. "Another thing. Johnson's the champlon. He'll have to lead to me. He's going to fight to him and let him pick me to pieces with counters, he's got another guess coming. I'm going to fight my head, I'm going to lead me for the first few rounds, but when the finish comes I'll be on top." Odds Are 2½ to 1. Reports were in circulation here today that Johnson had been offered his "down" to Moom and that the champion had refused. It is mighty doubtful if any such offer was made. There was no evidence that Johnson warranted the payment of such a sum as would tempt Johnson. Odds today were generally at 2½ to 1 that the champion has never been wagered on a big fight than this one is calling out. HOOODOO SIGNS SPELL WOE TO BIG SMOKE NEW YORK, June 24—It’s all off, Jack Johnson’s a gone coon. Frank Moran is the next heavyweight champion. And, in addition to Thomas Lippon wins the America’s cup, there’s no doubt about these tldings of joy and sorrow. It’s a chuck that he’re true to. He’s a man who has been boken, American scientific astrologer, and as he admits, “the nation’s counselor,” and as he admits, “the nation’s counselor,” he has a long statement which tells in detail where Frank and Jack got off and why the white hope will win. He’s also in this troubled world at Cleveland, O, March 15, 1888, if you believe the professor, “he had the zodiacal signs of Sagittarius and Capricorn in the ascendant and as the ruling planet of the sun,” and in ferry Jupiter, Moran has the punch,“or words to that effect. They say that the fight will end in “a most peculiar manner, probably by a knockout.” When then to Johnson, the professor is running the rowful planet Saturn. Meyer says, “will settle Johnson.” He declares the black man is the guard against suildal tendencies and too much wine, women and song, as I find that he has a great tendency for such and for a fast sporting life, and that he will come HOW PERCY HARRIS PITCHED HIS TEAM TO VICTORY. (By Manager Edward Leo Whitkker.) Special to The Freeman. CHICAGO, IL, June 23.—In the year of 1913 the City Capital League was organized, with eight clubs.

Among some is Wild Bill Watkins, Isaiah Bufford, Herman Davis, Steel Arm Martin and Percy Harris. Harris won the pennant in 1913, and the games he pitched he won thirteen, two. Four of these races were shutouts. He possesses a wrist speed and a cool head. He bats left and right. He will pitch in the right hand. He will get a valuable man. He is a valuable man to any team.

She makes a big hit with her "For You," also "The Blues." Mr. Taylor's original song, "Dead Man's Rag," never gets a big hit. Porter & Porter have just closed a two weeks' engagement.

Carver looked like a queen in purple, and sang well, was a part of the trio. The white acts were Walter Parker, in the "Sool Pigeon," an intensely draining comedian, and corrupt police captain was a week ending, morally. Florence Hursey's acrobats were great. Smilletta Bros. & Sally gave good triple-bar comedy, and Sally gave an excellent Scotch comedian and singer.

Joe Johnson, a new comedian, and Sadie Britton, well known of the past, played the role of Johnson and hand over a joke even if its Dan Michaels and wife were well known favorites, especially good in a Congo scene. The Shattuck Quartett was re-recorded by the band Holt was a pleasing singer who could well have omitted jokes. Ollie J. Denhart, the electrician, furnished novel lights. Colored tango Tuesdays and Fridays. JONES & JONES AT THE MONO GRAM. Young George Dixon Appears The Jones returned highly spiced and better than ever. Archie Jones is today one of the best, best young comedians Ida Da Silva appeared in, Sandifer, the comedian, was very satisfactory and his wife did well in her Bert Williams' imitation, and Elvira Jones appeared in three songs. Jones and Carson were the tango dancers. The Pekin Theatre Closes Abruptly. The first week's run of "Captain Rufus, which was successful, was interrupted by the end of the week. Jerry Mills, the producer, continued business on the commonwealth plan. The second week's disagreements at the eleventh hour, actors without contracts are always a joke. George Bailey states that the musical is not at fault in important cases. Personally, I am no longer interested in the cause of State street musicians, but I am not aware of reasons. I was paid in advance by Manager Linick for advertising the Freeman, and I presume the stage pro- AT THE PICTURE HOUSES THE STATES—"The Redemption of Davidd Carson" drew big houses.

Tom Cross, of Cross & Thompson, the big thoroughbred comedian from New York and Chattanoogan, was a most intense surprise to a couple of very indirected fans. He prevented a most unreasonable assault, of which the come-back would have been murder. The law will up- hold any person who acts a thin- self, and besides, every noted little man has friends who would slaughter his assailants at any given command. He will be impossible for the writer to make any such people important in the future. Perhaps it will interest the buffalo in the field, who then a new critic in the field on a local newspaper, who is a big fellow. He challenges all would-be assaulters and criticises them also. But not quite so competent or orateful and they all have to stand for it. What Prophets Sing.

Umpire, Fitznairn LEWISMS Mr Elwood C. Knox, editor of the Indiana Palmieri Freeman, was a guest of Mr. Andrew "Tueve" Kolesar and Monday. Mr. Knox came from Kolonaki Ind., where he witnessed a game. Mr. was shown the "stroll" on Sunday, making the manager editor reported on Monday. He was much pleased with his stay in the "Windy City." Lloyd is making so many fine plays for the American Giants that he is becoming an idol among the fans. As a result, he has held his nails were manicured. He has held his nails unless his fingers are in tip top condition. He has a special manicurist to do. He is manicurizing does the work, others might know. Miss Irene Shadd does the work. Mr. Foster will have the Putos here on Sunday and will have the Giants games next week, running until Thursday. Ladies will be admitted free during the week. Order your box seats now. Seats are at premium. The American Giants won every game on Sunday the A. B. C., while away. They lost the game with the Cuban Stars in Indiana. "Rube" says he will even up with them July 4. For a delicious dinner after the game, go to Mrs. Henrietta Wilson's 3533 Wailers room, excellent meals and fine service, or smell from the kitchen. Try her once and you will be pleased. Jenkins, the young pitcher, is certainly putting up a fine article of ball. He hit the pitches the better he gets. Baker is resting, Peterson is away having his arm treated, and Watts, a new catcher, is with the Giants. He held his own Sunday and was good with the stick. Duncan is now known as a safe hitter. He is crowding Lloyd, Burber and Hill first place in the batting percentage. Captain Pete Hill can always be depended upon for a hit, and as a center fielder he has no equal in semi-pro baseball. The day does not pass unless he does not make a sensational play. He is called "Diamond" Monroe, and is king at second. Gans, late of the New York Giants, is the best player in the Chicago fans. His left-foot work puts him in the class as a star player. Barber is still hitting and running, and a race horse can't catch him going from first to second. Mr. Knox chose to sit on the bench Sunday rather than sit in a box. The ladies were all "dolled up" last Sunday. They certainly looked good in their summer "togs." The Cuban Stars will be here July 4th. They will be the last series resulted in the Giants winning three and the Cubans winning three. Foster says he will take the odd game this time. The question is will being asked, "What is the batting age?" Some say Lloyd, others Hill, Barber or Duncan, with Monroe a close second. Everybody is reading the Freeman to keep up with the baseball sport here and all parts of the country. Jerry Mills, an American Giant fan, was absent last Sunday for the first time. He was a matinee at the Pekin. His substitute, "Bill" Adams, was right on the job. For any baseball information about the American Giants, Mr. Shine, who plays in the box every Sunday, is a expert. He is an able pany keeper and usually has some good cigars. If you want to see a large crowd of fans, you want to see enthusiasm run rampant. If you want to see well organized Giants Park on July 4 when the Giants play the Cuban Stars. It is expected to be the greatest game in the history, the semi-pro play. Teams have blood in their sockets and are anxious to win the first game. Remember that you must order your box seats rounding towns, and there will be excursions from Indianapolis, St. Louis and Cincinnati to see the game on this day.

June 25—The excessively hot wave that has covered the floor of the theater further on and a season of glorious showers and embracing breezes now spread their vigor and balm over the stage. Though the week has been very showy, the patronage at the New York theater is gone fine, all that could be expected. But the genial proprietor, is so well pleased with his corps of performers that he is a better show anywhere, I'll buy Warren Travis (white), the world-renowned strong man, who lifts a ton of weight. This week and his wonderful demonstrations are the sensation of the city. Over three thousand people wilted in the theater when he allowed himself to be run over by a heavily loaded seven passenger automobile in front of the theater, and the crowd followed him on the inside. Billy Cross is making a hit with our people each night. Miss Courtney Pennington is the first act to a come-back degree, every performance. J. Hellen is working that day to clean up. He has been dubbed by Jacksonville puns "the king bee" for putting the character work, while Jones & Gray are putting over their new "kiss waltz" in Considering the dullness of the season and the apparent hard times scare that the business with the business the New Globe is doing.

Fight Comes Off Friday—Moran Is Thought to Be Improving—No One Thinks Seriously of His Chance to Win Out. (By Billy Lewis.) Thomas M. of Pittsburgh, Pa., is the president who will go against Champ Jackson today. June 27th is Paris France for the greatest prize, possibly the one we will be a belt (I believe we will be now eliminated), nor cup, nor any insultable thing beyond. We will be able to pugilistic and utterly describe the brow, so to speak, and where "perched" the erstwhile oak or laurel. Nor do the countries, countries and nations participate in the glory. This will be particularly the American war. He is the representative of America and the representative of the Saxon race and above all, he is especially "dignified" to act as it concludes the white people and colored people at large, is doing the proper thing in trying to win, for in this game where only a few men are in fight to contend, and more continue to distinction, the sampler's chance—that is, there is a chance. Of course, no one seriously excels at this game, and the sampler's chance is not strictly true, but it is thought that he has some admirers who really think that Moran will do the work in this game, and most favorable impression, he thought that his camp of trainers was superior to Jack's. This means that a line of science is tried out that is most useful, the chief tool. Hope has to feed on some aliment. And this kind is being given out. That's the code is that "Johnson has cut up and there's a strong suspicion that the grape and bright lights of Paris have sapped his strength." H. B. White, former all-around amateur champion of Americana, who has been closely watching Moran's training, is considered to be a highly scientific manner," he said, and is a picture of health and strength. I have also watched Johnson training, and I have seen him as an excellent work. Moran has a great adventure, owing to the fact that he is served in his training by three first-class boxers, Johnny Johnson and Hattie Johnson is surrounded by men who are vastly inferior to him." Champ Kick is coming in for his own, and he is white men have grown in fighting around the truth, many of them; they are making a clean breast of it and with interest, as if ashamed of it. Kick is not a boxer. Reno, yet that fight does not very much dim, and because of what it holds as a subject involving the endless race he recalls the following to say: Johnson, from all accounts, is training hard, taking no chances. Some one who great confidence in the black batter has been able to catch on crushes and beat Moran. Johnson has nothing to do with this cocksureness, but is training carefully and cautiously, and he has been able to stake $25,000, and then some he. I dare say, wishes to wish up with those at home, who do not care very much about him, but he has few friends whom he wishes to know that they will still be proud of him. Temme Garrison, the Cleveland midfielder, who was recently in Paris, gave out the following: McKerrick tell Frank in a hotel in Paris one day that he would be the next world's champion; and furthermore, Dan said he would bet every dollar he could lay hands on that Moran every word of it, for that Dan meant leaving there that he would be broke for some time to come if by any sort of mistake Johnson happened to put the Moran is a different fellow in every Miami, the one we saw box Tony Ross have in his hands. We saw him with thirty pounds heavier, much faster, and can hit it per cent harder. But best of all, he himself now, something he lacked when he. I worked out with Frank in the process of big crowds every day at when he was training for Boss and when he was not have the punch and was not the strong musky athlete that he is at presenation but not have so very much on it at the time he was a new Moran. He was a new Moran and strength and he could hit the wickedest sort of short, sharp loops with both hands. There was a fighter in the heavyweight division who was a new Moran and could have knocked my head off and could have knocked his he is a mighty good fellow to work in great待遇 in every way. If I have any money on my hands when the big money you can gamble I will have it on Frank. His friends can talk as they like him, but I saw J.J. Ross do it on Moran, but I saw J.J. Ross can man make me believe he ever get back into the condition, or ever get fighting machine was when he began. back has been going back for some time, and Mackrist was foxy enough to see it. So why I give him so much credit for giving Moran and getting this great win to win the title. I know Johnson takes Moran for a big boob. I bear him so say. This day in a certain cafe in Paris McKetrick asked Johnson to give Joe Jeannette and Jack replied: 'No, I won't fight them, now just, but I will take on that big man and take him away and close his trap, I may get Jeannette in chance, provided I can take the prize. McKetrick jumped at the Moran-Johnson match is the result.' MORAN'S BACKERS MAKE BIG BETS ON WHITE_HOPE much Money Laid Against Johnson at Odds of 2 to 5 on Paris Bout. Monday 10 to 2.

POOR OLD HANS. Poor Hans is scooting down the slide. And slower grows his frame, He gets quite makes a pair of hits per game. He's played a skimpy eleven years And now he's on the fritz, In eleighteen years he's only made A mere three thousand hits. Three thousand hits! As many blows as Commy's Sox court mat. From the day he played when Gabriel comes to bat. Three thousand hits—a clout a game For many weary years; No wonder this incompetence Would move a man to tears. He is not much to look upon, And graceful as a cow. The dog does a hit That pill upon the brow. And cover, like a circus tent. From third to first. And hop around said covered space Like a Texan with a thirst. His pristine pulchritude is nix, Nor graceful his endearment. He still stands which helps a bit, however. But still he's scooting down the slide. And paler grows his frame. He's down and out, the poor old scout He's slipped so he can only clout. Will Meet Any Middleweight Boxer.

C.'s went down in inglorious defeat last week in a series of four games beginning Monday and ending on Tuesday, and clear, seeming particularly to agree with Rube's folks, judging by the way they swatted the ball and ran the bases, a great crowd being present at the closing game on Thursday, when the two clubs played a benefit game for the Lincoln Hospital. The Wright team had ideal, cool and clear, seeming particularly to agree with Rube's folks, judging by the way they swatted the ball and ran the bases, a great crowd being present at the closing game on Thursday, when the two clubs played a benefit game for the Lincoln Hospital. The C.'s have been playing good ball from the beginning of the season. Indeed, we here thought they were playing well, but it was because they had not met the right club. Taylor's fellows worked like Trojans, but all to no purpose. Rubie's big taking all the run, out of the local team. But the event, after all, was a great success. The American Giants is something. Foster's team will measure up with the best teams in the league. B.C. is over playing league ball. Many of the spectators did not know this, consequently they were lined to scoff at the downtricken.

His talk was along the line of habits that children should cultivate, and older people, and that the parents should instill in the minds of their children the good habits of life in order to be better prepared. It is the duty of our Christian people to see to our young boys and girls that they may cultivate the habit that they should cultivate, and women, instead of cultivating the habits of lower things of life, which brings men and women degradation and pain. The Roy, Edward Matthews and Miss Ada Locke were the guests of Mr. Manuel down in the Underwood room, and was a pleasant outing trip for them. LAKE HELEN (FLA.
