Freshmen Pitchers Showed Well and

The freshmen used three men In the box

critical points.

home runs OF Mott and Smith with the
bases full. Both were on long drives
into the left garden. Peck led in the
batting for Tech with three hits. while
Densmore got two singles for the fresh
men. Burton made two OF their four runs.

BILL HIGGINS STATUS
DISPUTED AT UNIV. VERMONT

The faculty and students at the Univer-
sity OF Vermont are at odds over the
question OF professionalism In baseball
and Bill Higgins. who was last year elect
cd captain OF the Brown University team
but who came TO Vermont and entered the
medical department a few weeks ago. IL
the cause OF all tho trouble Now the
baseball fans not I'm college have taken a
hand In the matter. meeting OF alumni
has been called and the local press has
taken the matter up cdtorially.
The faculty. or rather. the athletic
committee. says Higgins shall not play;
the students and fans say he must PLAY,
and Higgins says nothing. but appears
every day with the squad in practice and
is getting in fine shape for the summer.
While II is conceded that nothing I'm the
way OF an inducoment was offered Hig-
gins when nc came from Brown to Ner-
mont. II is claimed that because he ar
rived late in the year. having been on the
Brown team previously. and has played
summer baseball he is not eligible. There
Is feeling that two or three members
OF the faculty are standing on technicali-
ties. thus preventing the team from hav-
ing the benefit and services OF a catcher
whose skill and steadiness would be felt
aif-uvcr the diamond -
Higgins Is not professional posing a.
a student. lie Is a genuine student. and
according To the professors iu the medi-
cal department. Is doing good work Every
baseball man I'm the university wants To-
see him on the team. and every effort il
being made go indIcc the faculty to al

precision, failed to stay set. They

to see spine protrude from the top
of his hat.

TROUBLE OVER TOWN LOTS
Legislation Will Be Needed to Right
Matters in Indian Territory
Town Sites.

Muskogee, /. There are 1l5
towns in Indian territory in which
the government has not yet com
pleted the sale of town lots. The first
towns that were appraised and the
lots sold under government supervi-
sion are now making final settlement
and every day the Indian agent sends
out hundreds of notices to the prin-
cipal chiefs that final payment has
been made on lots in the various
towns.
Some peculiar conditions have
arisen and without relief legislation
the government will never be able to
close the townsite business. In some
of the towns there are lots which are
not worth the appraised value, and
they have never been sold, as the
government cannot accept less than
the appraised value. There will have
to be legislation allowing authority to
make disposition of such property.
Again there are hundreds of In
stances where purchasers have made
payments In lots, but have not made
the final payment. The deeds cannot
be issued until the final payment is
made. These payments must not run
over 60 days past due, and ten per
cent. interest is charged, but there Is
no way to enforce the payment of the
interest or the last payments either,
If the purchaser wants to let the prop
erty drop. In such cases the property
reverts to the tribe and there II
stands. They are found in every
one of the 300 government towns in
the territory. 1t is believed by the
townsite department of the Indian
agency that such relief will be pro-
vided in the Indian appropriation bill
this session of congress.

CHURCH cHAsEs SALOON.
Religious Edifico on Wheels Moves
About Town Wherever Most
Needed.

lphia.-There is in Philadel.
phia a lively little church which is In.
dulging in merry chase after saloons
OF this city, much to the discomfort
of the men behind the bars.
This little religious edifice is on
wheels, and II has instigated one OF the
liveliest campaigns against the selling
of liquor ever waged.
This little church always has been a
mission church. going hither and yon
wherever 1t seemed to be the most
needed. but 1t has only recently entered
so actively upon the temperance field.
Wherever the pastor OF this perambu-
lating church and his assistant Harry
A. Machey. learn that man is apply
ing for license In new district they
wait until the application has ben filed
and then, picking up their little
church, walk to within few feet of
the spot, plan their edifice and then
enter protest against the establishing
of a saloon.
Fourteen times-and II has been
working only a few weeks--has this
church chased would-be saloonkeeper
out OF business. II always has con.
gregation of more than so souls, and
so can rightly term itself thorough
corded to a stone edifice. The congre-
cation almost gleefully follow their
vagrant church and they have grand
rally meetings after every successful
fight against the establishment of a sa-
loon.
1t will not be long before other mis-.
sion churches on wheels will enter this
crusade against the selling of liquor.
and they will be able to put up one of
the biggest fights ever waged against
the saloonkeeper. They have the law
with them and the sheer humor Of the
situation will render would-be ga.
loonkeeper helpless with the judge.
TIL mission Is notwithstanding
wooden church with a seating capacity
Of ESQ., The pastor Is a man Of means
| and number Of influential temper
ance advocates are backing him, so
that the money is always forthcoming
when he desires to lease lot for his
church, and he feels 1t no hardship IL
the exigencies of the case make him
deem 1t wise to set the wheels of his
church moving before lease has ex-
pired. He always secures the land
for the very shortest possible time, sub.
ject to renewal and thus, while not
binding himself and his church un,
necessarily, he lends an air of perma-
necy to the action, which justifies him
in telling the judge that he does not
know how long he will remain.
