his antagonist repeatedly with the iron
poker and finally succeeded in driving
him away.
The police were notified of the affair
and Officer Buck whitehurst went out
and arrested both parties. Carter's
head is in bad plight and is a mass
of beaten flesh and bone. The doctor
worked on him nearlv two hours dress
ing the injuries but thinks they will
not prove fatal
Jackson's wife was in rear room
when Carter entered the house and in
trying to separate the two got 9her
dress covered with blood. She ran out
in the street to summon aid and at
tracted much attention by her extraor-
binary appearance. Garter as he ran
had dropped his pistol and this was
picked up by the woman, whom every
one thought to be on the war path
Garter claims that Jackson had been
Saying things about him" and that
he had gone in to settle the matter.
Jackson claims that Carter cursed him
when he struck him in the fsce while
lying in bed. The affair will be aired

THE LAST OF
THE DlAZ AFT AIR
Copies of the Home Mission
Board Pamphlet Re-
Ceived Here.

The Baptists of the South have probably
now heard the last of the Diaz matter,
which has been a bone of contention III
the denomination.
Copies have Just been received here OF
pamphlet just issued by the Home Mis-
sion Board for general circulation. 1t
gives a frank, full and detailed account
of the dealings of the board with Its
former missionary, Alberto j. Diaz, M.
D., from 1896 to the present time. The
story is n long one, and to the ears or
the Baptsts here is wretched and de-
pressing. The Herald declares that the
whole narrative confirms and deepens its
conviction that the only just criticism
that can be urged against the board Is
that 1t has been far too lenlent and for
bearing; that it. condoned what was the
most serious offense committed by Diaz,
ana that it went too far in its efforts to
retain him; that Daz has forfeited all
claim to the confidence he once enjoyed,
and has rendered 1t impossible to keep
him in the employment of tho board, is
abundantly demonstrated by the plain
facts recited in this publication, which
was made by order Of the Southern Bap-
fist Convention.

FOOTBALL EVENT
OF THE SEASON
and V. p. I. to Meet
Here on October Oath.
Notable Officials.

The most important football game of
the season will probably be that on the
oath of this month, at Broad Street Park,
between the University of Virginia and
the Virginia Polytechnic Institute teams.
There is a great rivalry on between the
teams. The Techs have during the past
few years worked themselves UP to tho
Varsity class, and 1t is now a question
as to superiority, and it is the purpose
of the charmen of the two boards to
make this contest an annual event.
+, The Forthcoming game is an experiment
which will, doubtless prove satisfactory.
and which will prove social as well as
sporting event to be looked forward to
every year with as much eagerness as
the annual Thanksgiving Day samss.
The very fact that the officials in this
game bear the stamp of natural excel
lence and dignity carries with 1t the as
surance of a successful test.
Mr. Paul DeShell, the umpire. Is the
recognized authority in this country He
officiates in the Yale Harvard games. He
holds a chair at Annapolis.
Mr. NJ j. Thompson, who will be the
referee, comes here with almost as great
a national reputation AS that held by Mr.
Dashield. He comes from Georgetown.
All the detail OF arrangement for the
game are in the hands Of Mr.. NJ. M.
Mcguire, for the Varsity. and Mr.. Wood
son Waddy for the Techs.
The game will be called at 3:15 o clock
on Saturday. October oath, at Broad
Street Park.
