THEY WANT TO REPAIR
THE STATE CAPITOL

To repair the state capitol $4,000 is
wanted,
The special committee appointed by
Speaker Morris under a resolution by Mr..
Steed, OF Taylor, TO investigate the con-
dition OF the capitol, met Saturday and
made a thorough investigation of the
building.
Chairman Steed was in charge Of the
committee, and every nook and corner OF
the capitol was visited. The committee
went from the roof to the basement and
noted every wear and tear in the head
quarters of the state.
Adjutant General Robertson, who Is
keeper of public buildings and grounds,
accompanied the committee on its inspec-
ton tour and pointed out the places that
were mostly in need of repairs. The roof
Of the building particularly needs rem
ovating.
After the inspection the committee de-
oided to recommend that $4,000 be appro-
priated for repairs on the capitol building.
The repairs have been needed for several
years, and unless they are made this year
II will be necessary to expend several hun
dred thousand dollars at the next session

THREE BILLS
HAVE COST
$4,000
GEORGIA LEGISLATURE HAS AC'
C0MPLISHED LITTLE so FAR,
BUT WILL PROBABLY GET
BUSY EARLY THIS WEEK.

The Georgia legislature has been in ses-
sion fourteen days at a cost to the state
of $4,000 and so far only three bills have
been passed. The fourteen days have been
spent mainly in the introduction of bills
and resolutions.
This week the house will get down to
actual work, as will the senate. Since the
committees have been appointed and or
ganized considerable work has been uone.
Many bills have already been passed upon
by members of the committees, and nu-
merous reports will be made this week.
One Of the hardest worked committees
is the appropriations committee. Two
meetings a week are being held by the
committee, and next week. owing to the
heavy demand for appropriations from
various sources. meetings will probably
have to be held every day.
Chairman Davis is working hard, as
are the other members, and every effort
is being made TO get the measure through
the house and senate as soon as possible.
Heretofore ii has been the custom to
send the appropriation bill to the governor
after the adjournment of the house, and
the chief executive has not been able TO
veto any of the amounts appropriated
without calling an extra session of the
general assembly.
Chairman Davis is anxious to avoid this,
and for that reason is working the COM
mittee every day.

Barring an occasional game OF football
with Gallaudet. the competition between
Georgetown and the other local institu-
lions is usually so very e-sided as to
be practically Of no interest. Because OF
this condition and for the sake of more
spirited competition, Graduate Director
Thompson, of Georgetown, is attempting
to spur the students of Columbian Uni
ver5ity to renewed interest in athletics.
Handicapped by Location.
The latter institution. however, is
greatly handicapped by its situation in
the central part of the city and the lack
Of an athletic field. Without system
Of dormitories, where the men may live
together and become intimately ac-
quainted. any degree OF perfection in col
lege athletics is we'll nigh impossible.
Columbian University is bravely attempt
ing to overcome these difficulties and she

out a good football team. Gallaudet Col
lege, too, though always represented by
excellent baseball and football teams, has
devoted but little attention to field and
track athletics until the present year.
II is the ambition OF Mr.. Thompson TO
give new impetus to field and track sports
in the District of Columbia, and, If his
plans are successful. to make Washing
ton the amateur athletic centre Of the

He will run the last relay for the team Of

opponents are well in the lead when ne
takes up the running for his team. they
will have very little show for victory.
In addition to the relay races, the star
event of the evening will be the special
hfty-yard race for the championship of
the world, in which Arthur Duffey of
Georgetown, viii compete with W. D.
Eaton, of Amherst. In recent race be-

Arthur Duffy claim that the latter has

most frenzied enthusiasm OF the spec
vania relay race. 1t will be remembered
that the first Georgetown runner lost his
his feet the Pennsylvania man had gained
between forty and fifty yards and it
lost. With every nerve and muscle
strained to the greatest tension the
and before the lap was completed had re
gained about five yards of the distance
lost. The second Georgetown runner took
up the chase and by degrees cut down the
intervening distance to fifteen yards. HIS
successor cheered on by the crowd. made
a great effort and as he gradually over
hauled the runner in front of him, men
and women, some of them, too, with grey
hair, leaped to their feet, and made the
hall echo with yells and screams that
were almost demOniacai. When the last
Georgetown runner finally tore down the
finish, fifteen yards in front of his op-
ponent, pandemoniun broke loose and the
voice OF the announcer was inaudible as
he attempted to call out the result.
The Relay Race.
From the number and personnel Of the
entries this year, it is believed that the
relay races will prove even more excit-
ing than those of last February. Accord
ing to present plans. Yale. Pennsylvania,
and Columbia will compete for the two

To SurpasS All Others.
The indoor meet OF the present year.
which is to be held in Convention Hall on
the evening Of Washingtcns Birthday,
February %, will surpass any of it's pre-
decessors. in the number of famous col
legiate and scholastic champions who will
compete. With the assent of President
Daugherty, Graduate Director Thompson
has spent the past fortnight in personally
visiting the great universities and pre-
paratory schools and enlisting their in
terest in the coming meet. His trip HIS
resulted SO favorably that the flower of
college athletes viii appear.
Probably the most exciting features of
the approaching meet will be the relay
races. FROM SpcGtdCuldI NleWpOiHt,
these contests are decidedly. the most in
teresting events of field and track ath-
letlcs. As the races are run in relays,
victory does not depend entirely upon in
dividual effort as in other competitions.
There is probably no more inspiring sight
than the third or fourth man of relay
team gamely attempting to make up the
distance which his comrades have lost
Every bit OF speed and grit are put forth
to the utmost degree, and when the dis
lance between the men begins to decrease
the spectators jump to their feet and fran
ticaily yell encouragement to each man,
according to their sympathies.

vention Hall last year Will recall the al

Washington to Be a Great Centre of Amateur
Sports Impetus to Be Given to Field
and Track Athletics in This City-George-
towns Big Indoor Meet.

THEN years ago the amateur athletics
OF Washington amounted to
naught. Two or three nondescript
clubs in a semi-comatose state,
Georgetown University just beginning to
be heard from, an occasional game OF
leap frog" or follow my leader" in the
high schools and the amateur athletics
Of Washington were practically exhausted.
Today the amateur athletics of the
South are centred in Washington, and
every year the indoor meet, which Is held
under the auspices OF the Athletic AS
ISOLATION of Georgetown University, at
tracts the greatest field and track ath-
letes from all parts of the country, rival
ing in size and interest the most I'M
portant athletic carniyals in the United
States.
Though given under the auspices Of
Georgetown University, the interest in the
indoor meet are by no means confined to
that institution. Gallaudet College. Co
lumbar University. and the Young Mems
Christian Association will be largely
represented. while the entries from the
local high and preparatory schools rival
in point of numbers the Georgetown ath-
letes, who will appear In the numerous
events arranged for competition.
During the past few years Georgetown

Of Columbia, pretty much her own way.

prepared plans for a great athletic carni-

hold a Southern interscholastic meet at
Georgetown Field during We approaching
spring, probably in May, to which every
high and preparatory school will be In
vited to send representatives. Rev. Je-
rome Daugherty, who is an athletic en-
thusiast, has given full assent to the ar
rangement of these two great meets. He
believes that field and track athletics are
the purest of sports and offer a greater

The Southern Colleges.
1t is much to be regretted that the
Southern colleges and schools will not be
more largely represented at the approach
ing meet. There is but little attention
paid to field and track athletics at these
institutions. 1t was hoped that Virginia.
Georgetown's old rival, would at least
send a relay team; but the formers &C
ton in accusing Georgetown of profess
sionalism, without any attempt at sub
sanitation Of her charges, has resulted
in severance Of athletic relations be-
tween these institutions. Next year
Graduate Director Thompson hopes to in
terest the Southern colleges and high
schools in order that the meet which he
proposes to hold on Georgetown field viii
afford keen competition.
Mr.. Thompsons scheme OF uphuilding
athletics in the South is unique He pro-
poses beginning with the schoolboy and
the first step in this direction will lie the
interscholasric meet to be held on George
town field during the coming season of
spring. According to Mr.. Thompson there
is plenty of talent in the South for field
and track events. The Southern blood is
easily excited by contest of any kind
and the schoolboys whom he has inter-
ested are highly enthused with the sports
that have pleased so many in the East
and West for years. 1t is to be hoped
that his plans VIII be consummatcd and

A HOT GRIDIRON.
Redwood Falls and Marshall High School
Teams Break Even.

One Of the fiercest games Of foot
ball OF the season was played Oct.
25th between the Redwood Falls
and Marshall high schools at Mar
shall, in which neither side sue
ceeded in scoring on it's opponent.
The work of the Redwood team
was at it's best, and they put up a
fight that Marshall never dreamed
of before the game, as she had fully
intended to beat Redwood 20 to 0.
The game was called at 2 O'Clock,
with Chas. Knox and Mr. Case ref
cree and umpire. The game was
divided into 20 minute halves. In
the first half Marshall kicked off
and Redwood steadily advanced the
ball to Marshall 25 yard line, when
she lost it on a tumble. and Mar
shall in turn advanced the ball to
Redwood s 10 yard line.
There, our boys made an exceed
ingly plucky fight and got the ball
on downs aud they again went down
the field. Once more was onr line
in danger, but Redwood got the
ball on a tumble, aud the first half
ended with it near the middle Of
the field.
In the second half our boys did
much better playing, giving Mar
shall a great scare when the ball
was advanced to Marshall S Is yard
line. If tumble had not been made
by our boys at this time, they
would no doubt have scored. as
Redwood was making five yards at
a time The entire half was spent
in going back and forth on the field,
and the second half ended with the
ball in Redwood S territory.
Redwood played excellent ball
throughout the game, Harry Miller
and George Alexander playing ex-
ceptionally well, while 6ne general
ship was shown on part of the cap
tain, Leslie King. Redwood seemed
