WERE In
THE GAME.
ClOverpOrt's And CanneltOn's
Played Snappy Ball.
The Visitors Aualn Sent Home In De-
feat.

Fridays baseball game had all the ear
marks OF professionalism.
1t was the fastest, snappiest, prettiest
game Of baseball that has been put up
here this season.
From the first to the last inning, 1t was
pitchers victory and that pitcher was
the redoubtable Burch, whose noble
right arm had complete mastery over
the sphere.
What he did to the Cannelton's was a
plenty He threw such deceptive curves
that they were compelled to saw the air,
and every mothers son was convinced
that there was hole in the bat.
Burch had the pleasure Of striking out
seventeen, while Chenyult, of the Can
nelton's, who is no SLOUGH himself, only
struck out six.
The Cannelton's were greatly strength
ened and from the moment the umpire
yelled "Play Ball" until the finish, they
we're strictly in the game.
They had some good talent along and
their fielding and base work was as pref
ty as has been seen here in many day.
They struck hot proposition in the
Cloverport's, however, and had to work
hard for what little glory they got.
Burch in the box and Lee Yeager be-
hind the bat proved to be a beautiful
battery while Joe Seymour, Roy Hey ser,
''Sqony Point" Overton, "Casey-at the
Bat" Hambleton, Morrison and Peters,
made up bunch OF talent that was little
short Of professional.
The following was the score:
Is34,S $40
Canneton 2 o o 80
Cloverport 800 Ill
The members of the home team made
base hits as follows:
Casey 3; Hambleton 0; Burch'2 Yea
ger 8; Heyser l. Morrison 3; Peters p;
Seymour 8; Overton 4.
NOTES.
The Cloverports are ready to eat Har-
dinsburg up.
The attendance at the games is very
encouraging.
DR.. Owen is as much of rooter as lit
tie Frank Norman.
Seymour distinguished himself as
usual. He has won the reputation Of
being "old reliable"
Lee Yeager's beautiful running catch
of foul ball was grand stand play. 1t
set the bleachers in a roar.
Clever Jack Richey, who is a candi-
date for sheriff of Perry county, Ind,
held down first base for Cannelton.
The games are always made more pop
ular by the attendance of Cloverport's
beautiful young ladies-the prettiest on
the footstool.
Clark of the Cannelton's made a home
run. He got mad at the umpire's decis-
ion, quit the field and walked home
sulking all . way.
Hargis, Cannelton's center fielder
made beautiful throw from center to
second base. 1t was as brilliant throw
and play as was seen here this season.
Steve Hall is making brilliant success
as a rnAnager. The team has won four
games out Of Eve since he has taken
hold. He is the life Of the nine and is
now booking some elegant attractions.
Base ball is success in Cloverport under
his auspices.
Burch is dandy. The small boy
thinks that what he can't do with the
ball is not worth doing. He is a team
by himself With Lee Yaeger and the
good team that is now backing him, he
is giving the people taste of profession
al base ball.

 The arrival of Senator Allen from Washington and the many conferences held between himself, W. J.

TEXAS URGED TO sECEDE.
Legislator Asks the State to Withdraw
 From the Union.

Dallas, Tex, Jan. 27.-In the lower house of the Texas legislature at Aus tin today sensation was created by Dudley c. WOoten of Dallas, who is regarded as the house leader, introduc- ing resolution favocing Texas with drawing from the federal union be- cause of alleged injustice and violation of the states rights through the pol icy adopted in enforcing the war rev. enue law.
 A short time ago Attorney General Crane of Texas protested to Internal Revenue Commissioner Scott against the requirements that the official bonds Of county and municipal officers must have war revenus stamps attached Mir Crane took the position that this was illegal and an encrOachment on the rights of the state. MT Scott ruled adversely.
 This ruling led to MT. Wocten's res olution of today. After a bitter de- nunciation of the federal government by number of members who took part in the debate the resolution went oyer for final action until tomorrow.
