ing the victims. The former was kicked be-
low the knee and had his leg broken, while
the latter was damned in the face at divers
times and had to retire on account of his
injuries. Both lads were taken to Freed
mems Hospital for treatment and Jordan
was compelled to remain in the institution
over night.
The game, from start to finish, was hotiy
contested, both teams being very evenly
matched. First one side and then the other
would force the ball toward the opponent g
goal, only to lose it on downs, and then
the backward struggle would be repeated.
The Business boys were fortunate enough
to force the ball over the line for a touch
down in the first half. but after great re-
joicing 1t was discovered that the time
limit had been exceeded and the first half
was licked off with neither side scoring.
In the second half the Westerns put new
life into their work, and the Business boys
were correspondingly depressed, but pluck
lily stuck to their work and so successfully
that when time was called for the day
neither side had the honor of being victors.
The excellent work of Jones and Lance
of the Business team was worthy of notice,
while every member of the Westerns played
such an even, steady game that it would
be unfair to single any one player out for
special notice Following is the lineup:

RESULT OF MEDDLING.
Gov. Gambler Discusses Mob Violence
in the South.

The Georgia legislature met in regular
session yesterday. After organization had
been perfected the message of Governor
Gambler was read. The chief executive de-
voted several paragraphs Of his message to
the twin subjects of crime and mob yio-
lence. He referred in general terms to
the crimes in different sections of the
state, taking the position that the unusual
amount of crime by lawless negroes and
the consequent unprecedented amount of
mob violence can be laid at the door of
intermeddling and irresponsible fanatics
and fools who do not know anything Of the
situation in the south. nor the real rela-
lions Of the people Of the two races.
He believes that almost, If not all, of
these criminal acts on the part Of the law
less negroes can be traced to the people
whose utterances in their newspapers and
through incendiary letters sent to negroes
in the south have greatly aggravated q
situation which they profess to deplore.

NEXT CHALLENGER FOR THE CUP.
Maj. Eustace Jameson, NJ. p, Said to
COvet the Privilege.

The New York Evening Post says: There
it a strong probability that the next chal-
lenger for the Americas cup will be Major
Eustace jameson, NJ. p. He is a warm
friend of Sir Thomas Upton, and witnessed
the races between Shamrock and Columbia
Should Major Jameson challenge he will
nave the Shamrock for trial horse. Any
body who challenges will be welcome to the
yacht for such purpose but Major
Jameson would be particularly so, because
of the friendship existing between him and
Sir Thomas. The Jameson boat would very
probably be built from a Watson design,
and, it Is said, would most certainly be
built in Belfast, ex-Lord Mayor Pirrie the
head of the firm of Harland & Wolff, being
quite welcome to undertake the work
THE name even of the boat has been
discussed, and while some of the mutual
friends of both the major and Sir Thomas
Upton were in favor of having X called
Shamrock II, the most favored name was
Hibernia. Major Jameson might challenge
through the Kingstown Royal Yacht Club,
but will probably send it, If at all, through
either the Royal listers or the Royal
CorkS.'

Superior Weight Won In the George
town-Baltimore Game.
A large and enthusiastic crowd of spec
tators gathered around the Georgetown
gridiron' yesterday afternoon to witness the
game between the Baltimore Medical Col
lege eleven and team wearing the blue
and gray. Defeat for Georgetown was al
most a foregone conclusion. but it was
hoped that the improvement in defensive
play would enable the local men to play
very close game with the Marylanders,
Notwithstanding the superior weight Of the
latter. The Issue was never in doubt from
the commencement of play, the superior
weight telling In all the PUSHES, and after
viewing the game the onlookers were salts

had done so well in holding down the score
to 10 to 0.
