Rice has never seen an exhibition by an outfielder known as Millar.

Manager o'Brien still has Cannon on the bench, and he will probably not use him until something rocky occurs in the inheld. OBrien thinks 1t a bad idea to put new man in the game until he is thoroughly familiar with the signals and the various plays. This is especially dan gerous in the inf1eld.

 Nashville, June 4.-(special.)-The Coal Barons put up fast and snappy game to- day and won on their merits. While the official score as published below, shows that nine hits were made off Campbell while only five were secured off Russell s delivery, the fact remains that the Bir- mingham batsmen hitw hen hits meant runs while Campbell was a complete pug gle to the Fishermen under like conditions
 Twelve hundred true and tried fans rooted hard for the home team, but all went for naught in the face of the fast work in the field and timely hitting of the Birmingham players. It is hard for the Nashville lovers of the game to com prehend why O'Brien's men are so far down in the scale.. Manager O'Brien cer- tainly has a great aggregation of minor leaguers and with such hitters, fielders and batteries, 1t is almost impossible to be- leve that the Coal Barons can much longer occupy a place in the second divis- lon.
 Campbell Was There.
 Campbell pitched a splendid game this afternoon and received most encouraging support from his team mates. In the field Campbells support was faultless and the Coal Barons were there with the goods when hits meant runs although they se- cured but five safeties In the game. Camp bell never lost his head for moment and when he got in tight pinch always pitch ed himself out in splendid style.
 Left fielder Millar's work was a con- spicuous feature of the game The lanky boy cut off at least five hits made by Nashville batters which looked good for two bags. The territory he covered WIS a revelation to the Nashville enthusia Bts Millar had eight put outs in left, which is "enough said" O'Brien, Lawler and Me Gulre also did great work in the field, making number of brilliant and a few seemingly impossible plays.
 Woods in Fine Form.
 Woods, who played in right garden, showed wonderful improvement over the game he put up yesterday. His nervous ness apparently had all gone and he batted and fielded like a veteran. Harry Vaughan carried off the batting honors for his team as he usually does, in Nash vile, at least.
 Brown handled Campbell's shoots and curves in a manner that evoked the praise of the experts in the grand stand.
 Dr. W l.. Dudley, professor of chemis- try et Vanderbilt university, who Is an lover of the national game. said
 Brown Is one of the greatest catchers I've ever seen, barring none. He seems to be able to catch any sort of pitching and keeps his head all the time. I wish we had him"
 Every Nashville fan is wondering to- night why Birmingham is so far down in the list. The official score published be- low obviates any necessity of telling how the runs were made.

INCREASE OF SCHOOL LEVY.
Senator WO1cOtt Gathering InfOrma-
ton on Educational Questions.

Senator Eban H. Wolcott, of Wolcott,
chairman of the Senate committee on edu-
cation. is delving into facts about the dis
tribution of the school levy of the State.
He seeks information that will enable him
to handle the bill to be introduced soon to
increase the levy from eleven cents to
sixteen cents. Senator Wolcott is much
interested in the prospective legislation and
while not stating his attitude positively is
inclined to favor the movement.
Everyone knows" he said last night.
that Marion county pays out far mroe
money than it gets in. Since the distribu-
ton is made on basis of the number of
pupils of school age it is apparent at once
that Marion assists in the support of other
county schools. There are other points to
be considered also. The terms of school
in many of the Southern counties are too
short. Pupils do not have enough instruc-
ton during the year. If there were more
money for school purposes there could be
longer terms and perhaps something's
might be done toward better pay for
teachers. The whole subject is of extreme
Importance
Several other measures affecting the
schools are to be introduced and will be
referred TO Senator Wolcotts committee.
One bill will provide that children in pri-
vate orphan asylums shall receive tuition
their time may be taken by the institution
TO pay for their support. Under the present
system children are taught until they are
sixteen and then they are bound over to
work until they are twenty-one for the in
stitution In which they may be placed.

who might not be qualified to sit on a
bench requiring such peculiar qualities
Judge Allen, while saying that the Clr-
cult judge has now about all he can at
tend TO, threw cold water on the sugSes-
tions made. He said the people are not
ready to agree to the establishment or an
other judicial Office. He did not think the
suggestion TO have the cases handled by a

magnitude of the work makes such bench
necessary, he thought. There should be
no question of the cost, Mr. Griff1ths SAID.
False economy should not be considered IN
a reform of such consequences. He old not
believe that the people would be penurlous
when 1t came to preventing crime by re-
forming children.
James Collins, former Police Court pros
ecutor, said that judge of Juvenile court
would have his hands full with that kind OF
business alone.
Senator Thompson asked that no motion
should be made binding the Senate COM
mittee to retaining the amendment even
at the sacrifice of the bill. He said the
mere fact of having the court established is
of such transcendent Importance that II
should not be lost sight of. He would try
to get the amendment through if he could,
he said, but it was the bill first of all and
the amendment if possible. The meeting
decided to follow Senator Thompson's sug-
gestion, and the amendment was carried
with the understanding that the committee
exercise its best Judgment.

SEPARATE JUVENILE COURT.
Recommendation Made to Senate Com
mittee by Meeting of Citizens.

Senator Thompson's bill TO establish a
Juvenile court in Indianapolis was thor
oughly discussed last night at a meeting of
gentlemen. most of whom particularly
competent to express a view on the needs
of the city and county as to a tribunal in
which children's cases may be considered
exclusively. Among those present were
Judge Henry Clay Allen, Judge Fremont
Afford, Judge Stubs, Amos w. Butler,
John L. Griffiths, Father Francis II. Ga
visk, Superintendent c. n. Kendall, the
Rev. Lewis Brown, the Rev. Hiram w.
Kellogg Sylvester Johnson, Charles w.
Moores, Representative Ralph Bamberger
and Thomas c. Day.
The sense of the meeting was that to
substitute BILL which will be introduced by
Senator Thompson covering one or two es-
sential points that were not en- bodied in
the original bill. an amendment should be
written providing that a separate cour.
should be established having full and ex-
elusive jurisdiction of all cases in which
children may be parties The original bill
provided that the judge of the Circuit
Court should act in the capacity of Judge
of the juvenile court. The motion covering
the amendment was made by Charles w.
missioners Senator Thompson assured
those present that the committee will do
all in its power to have the substitute bill
passed with the amendment included.
Judge Stubs made the first speech in
which he reviewed the good work that has
been accomplished by the juvenile court es-
tablished and conducted by himself There

cial judge to do. he thinks, and the work

BUSINESS OF THE HOUSE.
Action on One Bill Showed the Hand
of Skilled LEGISLATOR.

The clever hand of skilled legislator
was in evidence in the House yesterday
when the bill for the readjustment of the
Forty-second, Sixth. Sixteenth Eighth and
Thirtyseventh judicial circuits was SUBJ
stituted for House bill No. 97--Edwards-
which made three circuits out of the For
ty-second and Sixth. Representative James
L. Watson, of Rushville, who represents
the Sixth district in Congress, was the
veteran parliamentarian who was response
BILE for the shrewd manipulation. 1t was a
trick that is often resorted to in Congress,
but yesterday was the first time it had
been used in the Indiana Legislature for
many moons.
This is how it was worked: Mr.. Ed
wards's bill had been referred to the COM
mittee on the organization of courts, of
which MIR. Sparks. of Rush. is chairman.
The committee reported on Mr. Edwards s
bill. but instead of recommending it for
indefinite postponement. as would have
been the usual course. a majority of the
committee recommended that the bill be
amended in manner that meant virtually
the striking out of all except the enactin,
clause and substituting the bill in which
Mr.. Sparks and Representative Watson are
interested. The minority report was for
the passage of the Edwards bill. The House
concurred in the majority report and the
Watson-Sparks bill advanced to Sec

day that which In the ordinary course of
legislation would have required at least

ROOSTER FOR THE MINORITY.
Bird Sent to Mr.. kirkman Created
Amusement in the House.


A rooster, which started in on the ma
jority side, moved to the minority, and
finally landed in the possession of John
Ward, the colored youth who has the shoe
shining privilege in the lobby, furnished
the House more diversion yesterday toward
the close of the session than that body
has had since the oratorical feast on the
occasion of the election of Senator Fair
banks. The bird came to Mr.. Kirkpatrick
of Montgomery, the father of the bill for
the prevention of the devastation of gar
dens by chickens and other fowls per-
mitted TO run at large, and it was sent as
the anonymous tribute of some of his New
Richmond constituents. 1t was brought in
and deposited on his desk in the crate in
which Ii was shipped.
Mr. Kirkpatrick arose to the emergency
and as a matter of personal privilege ex-
planned why the fowl had been sent to
him. He wound up by presenting 1T to
the minority, declaring that a rooster could
not be tolerated or the majority side as 1t
is the emblem of Democracy. He urged his
colleagues on the other side to treat the
bird tenderly and not to subject 1t to the
indignities that the Democratic rooster has
experienced in times past
A page carried the crate over to Repre-
half Of the minority, but Representative
Adair, ''the gentleman from Jay" took ex-
ceptions to this. and announced that the
Democrats could not in conscience accept
the bird as ii had been corrupted by asso-
citation with the Republicans Representa-
tive Sherman, of Decatur, made his first
play as a humorist, by offering a motion
to the effect that further consideration of
the rooster be made a special order for the
Ides of November. 190i--a sally that was
appreciated by both sides.
After considerable repartee, in which
Speaker Marshall interjected the observa-
ton that chickens always come home to
roost, the colored gentleman from the
cloakroom got in his fine work and carried
off the prize Through it all the rooster
conducted himself with the utmost decorum
and never once essayed even the feeblest
sort of a crow, in which he displayed a
conservatism and wisdom that is not al
ways characteristic of the political party
he represented.
