anize for 1906.

Evansville, Ind, Dec. 17.-Some
time next month there will be a
meeting of the X. |, T. League di-
rectors when the league will be org
anized for the season. 1t looks like
Vincinnes, Ind, Paducah, Ky. and
Cairo H., will be in the league again
next year, with Danville, East st.
Louis, H., and Jacksonville, H..
Henderson and Owensboro, KY, are
also mentioned for places in the
league. Princeton, Ind, would like
to be admitted again, but owing to
the fact that she had losing team
last year and the town never sup
ported the game, she may be left out
in the cold next season. M. j. Farm
baker, of Cairo, H., the Secretary OF
the league, says prospects are bright
for the coming year.

In her novelette,, The Outsider" "
which opens the January number of
The Smart Set, Beatriz Demarest
Lloyd has written an exquisite ro-
nance of Italy, a story Of rare lite
rary charm and distinction. So de-
lightful is the atmosphere of this
tale, and so delicate is the art re
vealed, that it should take rank with
Harland's "The Cardinals Snuff,
Box. This is high praise indeed
but areading of the story will justi-
fly it. The new year opens auspici
ously for The Smart Set.

fierce street fighting was In progress
yesterday between the military and the
striking workmen, who barrcaded tile
thoroughfares in various quarters Of the
city and offered resistance which the
troops met with volleys. The list Of
dead and. wounded presumably is heavy,
but not even an estimate has been re-
ceived here, Russian correspondents tele-
graphing that the streets are entirely
In tho hands of the military and the
mob, and that it is unsafe to venture out
to obtain details. III.
LODI has been in a turmoil for tho
past three days, Tho strike, which EN-
braces 10000 workers, appears to have
entirely lost it's economic nature and is
now a vast political manifestation. All
forms OF public business activity have
been suspended, the peaceful inhabitants
remaining In doors in fear Of their lives.
Tho political zeal OF the manifcstanls
has become intiamed by intoxicants from
the vodka shops, which were broken into
and pllaged yesterday.
AT Warsaw, n strike has commenced
and disorders are looked for and the
trial of Okriey, who threw bomb at a

WHY THE FAILURE
Reason Why Richmond Did Not
Grt Republican Convention.

Get Republican Convention,
The Richmond Committee which went
10 Iynchburg III the effort to secure tho
next Republican convention for TINS CITY,
returned yesterday, naturally disappoint-
I'd at tho selection of Roanoke. They
made a plucky fight, but were against
too great odds.
There arc several reasons, for the VIC
tory of Roanoke First of all the COM
,nittee meeting was dominated by men
from the Ninth District and other south
western counties, and these almost to q
man favored Roanoke for the reason that
It was nearer to them than Richmond,
and for tho further reason that 1T is IN
white section of the State.
Mr.. Thomas II. Smith, formerly post
master of Manchester and man who
stands close to Colonel Slemp in Re-
publican politics. had this to say to a
Times Dispatch reporter yesterday:
THE situation in Richmond was a pccu-
liar one. The city had the ablest repre-
sentativcs she has had in years. The
Hotel Association, with the repre-
scntatives from the Chamber Of Com
merce worked hard for the conventions;
all lost. Their defeat Is not due to any
thing left undone, but is the fault Of the
delegates from the eastern counties. Trere
was lack OF organization. Say what
you will, but organization counts in every
thing. Southwest Virginia came here
solid. There was no breaking Of the ranks
and when this portion of the State scat
tered the result was inevitable.
