INDICTED THE WRONG MAN.
Intcre.tinx Developments in a Trial
At Rockville.

ROCKVILLE, Nd, Dec SIN the Cir
cult Court for Montgomery County this
afternoon, the case Of the State against
Harry Kohlhoss, who was charged with
violating the local option law OF this coun-
ty, was tried. Interesting facts developed
during the trial of the case 1t appears
that recently Harry Kohlhoss was con-
victed Of selling intoxicating liquors, and
after having paid his fine, he promised the
court that he would 90 out of the BUSH
ness. He did business OF a general mer-
chandise character at Westmore, near this
place, at that time. The building occupied
then was rented by Harry Kohlhoss. He
rented the building under a suitcase to
his brother. Harvey Kohlhoss, who does
business there now. Another brother
Claude Kohlhoss. rented a room in the
same building.
the case 1t developed that Claude kohlhoss
used his room as saloon. and was SELL
ing liquor there. 1t was also shown that
neither Harry nor Harvey Kohlhoss was
doing an illegal business. Claude Kohlhoss
was put on the stand. and admitted that
he had conducted an illegal business, but
had ceased 10 do so. He produced his Gov
eminent retail liquor license. which ex-
pires in June next. The States Attorney,
in his argument to the Jury. claimed that
this was a scheme TO evade the. law, that
when one brother was indicted the other
would claim the ownership OF the bust
ness. The jury returned verdict of not
guilty.
Other cases tried today were as follows:
James Boo, charged with selling whisky.
The States Attorney forgot to prove the
venue of the charge, and upon motion of
Mr.. Anderson, attorney for the accused, the
court instructed the jury to give verdict
of not guilty which was done. James boo.

about to order the coal from William j.

PAN AMERICAN SPORTS

Some months ago the president OF the
Pan American exposition appointed q
committee on sports, as follows: Jesse
c. Damn. chairman; Dr. Chas. Cary, j.
McC. Mitchell, John .Olmstead, Charles
Nj. Ransom, Seward A. Simons, VIM.
Burnet Wright Jr.
This committee has been working for
some time to perfect plans for the sports
TO be held at the exposition next year.
has been done and the committee is
only now prepared to submit details of
some of the proposed plans; these will,
of course, be subject to such changes
as future consideration may determine.
Soon after its appointment, the com-
mittee invited the following named gen.
tlemen TO act as members Of an advisory
committee on amateur sports: Hon.
Theodore Roosevelt, Walter Camp C. c,
Cuyler, c. S. Hyman (Canada), C. H.
Sheriff., A. 4. Stagg, Benjamin Tde
Wheeler, Caspar Whitney The arpoint-
ment of this advisory committee em-
phasizes the desire of the committee to
have all amateur competitions occupy
the highest possible plane
T he Stadium, with seating capac city
of $4,000, is beautiful in design, and prom
u
architectural creations of the exposition.
1t will surround a quarter-mile track,
with ground area ample for the requires
ments of all the events proposed. Par
ticular attention has been paid to aisles,
large number leading TO seats, in ad-
dition to the great main entrance on the
west The Stadium is located on the east
side Of the Plaza, and is therefore OPP
poste the entrance to the Midway and
near the entrance to the steam and troll
ley railway station, alta the north end
of the exposition grounds.
AS to the nature of athletic events
planned by the committee. it may be said
that amateur sports of all kinds will be
particularly encouraged as representing
the most desirable of athletic compete
tions, and it is hoped that colleSe sports
may be an especial feature. In the man.
agement of the various inter- collegiate
events, 1T is the desire of the committee
that the various college associations be
invited to undertake as far as possible
theh arrangement of all necessary details
connected Herewith. The committee,
through its chairman, will conduct all
correspondence relating ito college sports.
Other amateur sports will, under the di-
rection of the committee, come largely
within the province of Mr.. j. r. Sullivan
who has been engaged as athletic manag-
| er. Mr.. Sullivan will maintain a New
York office at No. 16 Park Place, New

THE PIGSkIN

The football season of 1900 was wound
up in Annapolis unexpected triumph
over the West Point eleven at Philadel-
phia on December /. The game was
losely played, yet, owing to the close
ness with which the teams were match
ed, and the evenness of their work, the
struggle proved to be the most interest
ing and exciting one of the year. All
the previous so-caled big games of the
season had been won and lost by such
large scores that the result was not in
question long after the first few min
utes of play. Look at the scores made
in the Harvard Pennsylvania, Prince
ton Yale, Harvard Yale and the Penn
sylvania- Cornell games, and this fact
may be noted at a glance. In the con-
test, however, between the two govern
ment academies the final result was in
doubt almost to the last moment. At
the end of the first half the army men
We're ahead, and the naval cadets had
to start in for the last haIA of the strug-
gle and play an uphill game, which
finally led to victory. There was the best
sort of crowd on hand to watch the
struggle, and the attendance was prob
ably larger than it had been at any
other game of the season. The intense
interest which the close contest aroused
and the character of the supporters on
either side made the game a brilliant
spectacle and fitting climax to the
season.
"The habit Of formulating an ALL
American eleven has Leen growing of
late years upon every lover of the game
of football and every man that takes
more than a passing interest in the
work ef the leading college teams. In
picking out what my idea is this year
of an All-American eleven, and also of
! second team made up of the next
| best candidates I have thought it best
to eliminate entirely the western col
lege teams" says Sideline, the expert
writer on football. THE standard of
play in the middle west this year has
it would appear, been hardly so high as
it was last year. Whether or not this is
the fact. 1t would complicate Asatters
to bring in a lot of players whose names
are unknown to most readers of this
