COURT OF INQUIRY coMPL1,rENTED
II Got All the Facts There Were 10
BE Had at Statesboro.

Statesboro, Ga, Aug. 31.-Interest in
the investigation by the court of in
quiry yesterday has not died out with
the departure of the court. It is ad-
mitted that the court was composed of
able and fearless officers. Nothing
could be more firmly established than
the fact that it was not in the white
washing business. If the truth was
not learned. the fault cannot be charg-
ed up to the court of inquiry.
One striking feature of the inquiry
was the promptness with which the
testimony was given by the members
Of the Statesboro Guards. They did
rot hesitate to give the names of the
civilians who took their guns from
them, nor anything pertaining to the
conduct of the military. The explana-
ton of Sergt. John Paul Jones as to
why he said in his message to Gov
Terrell that all the soldiers were cap
tured except himself was interesting
1t was brought out by Col. Wooten
that Jones said the mob had captured
about half the soldiers and some of the
officers.
The men who admitted they were in
the mob are being complimented for
their honesty, as are those who did
not hesitate to say they knew others
who were participants.

A HARD FOUGHT BATTLE WAS
THAT OF CHICAGO AND WISCONSIN

Chicago, Nov. 24.-Chicago 10; Wis
consin, II, was the score to-day in the
hardest-fought football game played on
Marshall Field this season. The game
was replete with surprises and critical
situations, which kept the $4,000 spec
tators on the qui vive from the time of
the first kick off until the final whis-
tie blew.
The climax was reached in the mid
die of the second half. Eckersall
caught the ball on the kickoff on Chi
cago's three-yard line and started to-
ward Wisconsin's goal. The Wisconsin
men came laundering down upon him.
Some of them were stopped by Chi
cago interference and others. Eckersall
lodged until only Sromquist, WILSON,
sins fullback, blocked the way to a
touchdown. Dodging dangerously near
the side line the speedy little quarter
back rushed by the outstretched fin

track records, an unprecedented
crowd and the running of the Wash
ington cup and the Chevy Chase SELL
ing steeplechase events were the feat
ures of to-day's Thanksgiving racing
Of the Washington Jockey Club.
Upwards of $4,000 people watched the
sport. There were seven races, in

seconds off the record for the distance

gers of his opponent, grazing his leg
as he passed. Two seconds late he was
beneath a pile of squirrning humanity
behind the Wisconsin goal posts. He
had made the record run of the sea-
son, covering 107 yards, to do which he
actually ran lis yards.
The crowd went wild, Wisconsin root
ers joining with the Chicago men in
cheering the play. All sense of parti-
sanship was lost in the general admi-
ration for the magnificent play.
few moments later Vanderboom,
who played a star game for Wisconsin,
was given almost as great an ovation
when he made a fifteen-yard run for
touchdown. His play was the Gull
mination Of series of line smashes
by which Wisconsin had worked the
ball from their own twenty-yard line
to Chicago's twenty-five-yard line.
The game was particularly notable
for the tenacious grit with which both
elevens fought for every inch Of
ground. Wisconsin near the end of
the second half, succeeded in holding
Chicago for downs on Wisconsin's one
yard line.

VIRGINIA BEAT
THE CAROLlNIANS
FOR SoUTH's CHAMPIONSHIP
BY THE CLOSE SCORE OF IL TO IL
AT RICHMOND.

1t Was by an Accident That Virginia
Won-One of the North Carolina
Players Slapped a Low Ball for
Goal, Causing 1t to Mount over
the Bar-North Carolina Missed an
Easy Goal.
Richmond, Va, Nov. 24.-The Uni
versity of Virginia defeated the Uni
nual game for the Southern cham
pionsbip at Broad Street Park this
afternoon by a margin of but one
point. The score was u to IL, the
Carolinians failing of a drawn battle
by their inability to land a rather
easy goal. 1t was the irony of fate
that the point that won the game for
the Orange and Blue was the result of
an accident in which a Carolinian
player figured. With the score IL to
H., Virginia had try for goal. The
ball was booted straight enough, but
too low to get over the bar and
Carolina player standing beneath the
posts, jumped into the air and struck
the ban, detecting it upward and
over Inc OAR.
The two teams were as evenly
matched as it was possible for them
to be, and the offense of each was SUI
perior to it's defense. Virginia played
Yale football, straight line plunges
and mass plays being used effectively
against the Carolina line, until the
Blue and White were hammered back
over their own line. Carolina played
Princeton style, depending on end
runs chiefly for gains. Carolina had
star back field and one of the heav-
lest ever seen in this city.
Carpenter, an old V. p. 1. player,
was the star of the game and Caro-
lina's main dependence as a ground
gamer. 1t was he who made all of
the Carolinians best runs and their
second touchdown after a thirtyyard
dash. The first touchdown of the
game made by Carolina, was due to a
Virginia muff of a punt on its own
goal line, the ball rolling over and a
Carolinian falling on it.
For Virginia Right Tackle Council
made the first touchdown after the ball
had been rushed almost the length OF
the field. Hammond Johnson carried
the ball over for the second. in a
brilliant fifteen yard dash into the line.
Both yielded goals. The lineup was
as follows:

were separated before serious damage

period OF the game.

Cornell back field, and on nearly ev-

A feature of the game was the fierce
tachling OF the Pennsylvania boys. On
nearly every scrimmage when the
Cornell team had the ball there would
be one OF the visitors laid out. Stur-
son, Pennsylvania's quarterback, was
finally sent TO the side lines by Um-
pire Edwards for rough play.

being in Furman's territory the greater

the Ferman goal was four inches un-

by Charleston, when within one yard
of the line.
Furman was hopelessly outclassed
