CAUGHT FROM THE CURRENT.
GATHERED HIT AND MISS (: ::
HERE AND THERE :: s.: ::

While at Bruce the other day, man
remarked to me that the suits in which
the News is engaged are likely to clear
up the atmosphere. We trust that
such is the case and that when we get
through there will be better under
standing of the situation. AS the fell
low said: ''the only way is to fight
it out" That is the case exactly. The
writer knows this as we'll as anyone.
He has been slandered by the gang
long enough and proposes to put stop
to it. Not only that. but it is intended
that hereafter newspapers are to know
that they are limited to the truth.
1t is an uphill fight-this contest with
towards. They pretend-and that is
all. The expublisher pretended, but he
ran away from court as truly as if the
exodus was physical.
And, next, the amateur writer of
viciousness will run away from court
be as shy of it as he is Of bills for
clothing or building material.
But there are square people and lots
of them. So many that we don't have
to mix with muck-mouthed individuals.
This is happy fact, | am heartily
glad of it.
This old world is pretty good one
and Ladysmith is a mighty fine town.
We have got lot of mighty fine peo-
pie. We don't need to have the town
dominated by gang of grafters. And
it is gratifying that all surface indica-
tons are that we are about through
with them. When they are finally and
fully fired we shall have peace and
tranquility and the reputation of the
city will be vastly improved.
There will be fun when McGill is
called up under the discovery statute
for examination on the wrecking of
the old First National bank. You re-
member his testimony down at Madi-
son, where he placed the sale of the
water power franchise in December,
and backed out, and after sweating
awhile wasn't sure it was before the
first of May? You remember, too,
that according to his sworn testimony,
he sold it for $500, gave half to his
''frenzied finance" side partner and
kept the other half as expenses of the
sale? Nice, isn't it? About as fine as
that bargain" to secure the district
attorneyship of Rusk county? 1t will
all come out in the wash.
But as have said, there are lots Of
square people in this old world of ours.
We can usually pick our company and
we can leave out boodlers and tricksters
and get along very well.

corded the Defendant When Yer
dict Is Announced.

eminent in connection with the sale of
time recording clocks to the postoffice de-
partment. was today acquitted by a jury.
The announcement of the verdict, which
was returned shortly before 4 o'clock this
afternoon was followed by a remarkable
demonstration. One of Mr.. Green's closest
friends and fellow townsman who sat by
his side threw his arms around and fair
ly shook him the instant the words mot
guilty" came from the lips of the fore
man of the jury. Others jumped to their
feet and rushed toward the table at which
the acquitted man was sitting and for
several minutes he was kept busy shak-
ing hands and was overwhelmed with
congratulations Even members of the
jury shook his hands.
Mr.. Green was plainly moved by the
demonstration. His first act was to phone
his wife giving her the news He also
sent a telegram to little girl in Schenec-
tady, n. Y, who had written him that
she had prayed for him telling her that
her prayers had been answered.

VANDERBILT BOYS
PLAY BASKETBALL
Four of Them on Nashville
Y. M. C. A. Team
GAME WITH ATHLETIC CLUB
Interesting Game Promised Tonight.
Two Skating Teams VIII Play
Polo Game, Besides
Basketball Contest.

Vanderbilt in disguise" is what the
Nashville Y. M. c. A. basketball team
seems to be. They are coming here today
to play the Athletic club tonight, and
the rooters will have a chance to see
some of yanderbilt's big football stars
after all.
A letter was received from the Nashville
manager yesterday afternoon giving the
lineup of his team. and It seems that
at least four of the players are Wander
bilt students. One of the forwards Is Bob
Blake. Vanderbilt's great football end
who for two seasons past has made the
all-southern team. The center is Manner
who has been the all-southern fullback
for two years.
Boylin at forward and Jamison at guard
are two other Vanderbilt men. Turner Is
the other guard. Nashville's average
weight is 15S pounds.
The Nashville team will arrive this
afternoon and the game tonight will be-
gin promptly at $40 o'clock.
Birminghams lineup will be Mcbride
and VIII Biddle as forwards Berry at
center and Joe Biddle and Eugene Jones
as guards. They are lighter than the
Nashville boys, but they have been play
ing basketball much longer and their ex-
perience ought to give them a decided
advantage
Between the halves of the basketball
game the skating enthusiasts of the Ath-
letic club will put on a short polo game,
which promises to be a most pleasing
novelty.
The line-up of the two picked teams
will be as follows: r. T. Bigelow, Ewing
Shute, w. B. McEwen and n. l.. Mar
quise on the first team and o. s. Powers,
e. II. Miller, Lawrence Smith and George
c. Walters on the other.

passed. the Indian appropriation bill car
rylng $17s552S. 1t then proceeded to tan

The result was an adjournment for lack
of quorum after members had been
locked in the hall for half an hour, and
the assistant sergeant-at-arms had been
scurrying to the various hotels in search
of members. The vote to consider the bill
showed an overwhelming sentiment In its
favor, apd as it is the pending business
under call of committees, it will probably
be reached and passed in due course.
There We're only a few minor amend
ments made to the Indian bill. Mr.. Crum-
packer acted as a censor on the measure
under the 6-minute rule. making many
points of order to various paragra phs. In
each case however. he withdrew his OBJ

members who drop in casually to see what
is going on.
Hackenschmidt's shoulder and neck de-

among the Athletic club members who
have seen it, and there are many who
can understand why he was never de-

man weighing 1870 pounds. Haekenschmidt
