Special to Times-Republican.
Iowa City, Jan. 1S.-The Hawkeye
basket ball team, and four substitutes,
accompanied by Coach Rule, left today
on an extended trip thru the west on
which they will play the Y. NJ. c. A.,
Drake University, and Highland Park
team at Des Moines, the Nebraska I'm
iversity team at Lincoln, Neb., and the
Athletic club team at Kansas City. The
men taken on the trip are Burton,
Bucknor, Perian, Brown, Burkheimer.
Heath, Norton and Stewart.
The last three named men are freshmen
and are therefore ineligible to compete
in the intercollegiate contests. tho they
will be allowed to play against the Y.
NJ. G.. A. team at Des Molnes and the
Athletic club team at Kansas City. The
of successful trip have
considerably since the three
freshmen were disqualified. Coach Rule
issued a call at that time for old bas-
ketball men to report and over twen-
ty athletes turned out from which
number the three substitutes have been
chosen. The patched-up team is now
believed to be in fair working shape
and the Hawkeyes are hoping to cap
lure the largest share of the games.
tho Coach Rule is unwilling to predict
which games Iowa will win.

Mr.. and Mrs. David Davidson, came
near being cremated, being saved by
a neighbor woman. The latter lives
near, and happening out in her yard,
she heard someone rapping on the
Davidsons' window. Thinking some
thing was wrong, she ran to the house
The doors were locked, but she smelled
smoke and the tapping continued She
finally climbed in at window at the
rear of the house, and discovered a
fire kindled under a rocking chair. She
first put out the fire, which had burned
the chair and floor badly, then she
found Mr.. Davidson lying across the
wood box, where he had fallen uncon-
and mentally, and it is thought he
started fire in the stove. The wife
has been an invalid for years, and for
long time has not been able to get
around. She had managed in some
way to make her way to the window,
so as to tap on 1t with cane. But
for this they would have undoubtedly
persisted They were almost smother
ed by the smoke.

SCISSOR a very brilliant Imagination, but
IN his endeavors to rival Bret Harte,
got his lines badly tangled. Now. Mr..
Editor, for number of years previous
to our incarceration, my brother and
operated threshing machine in
Hardin county, consequently became
acquainted with nearly every farmer in
the vicinity. But we never knew or
heard of Mr.. Billig, and it is my honest
belief that no such man ever lived in
hat vicinity at anytime, and that the
person who relieved himself of that
bunch of fiction imposed upon the re-
porter for your estimable paper.
Evidently fiction is not Mr. Billig's
regular line, and to casual reader his
story is too absurd to carry any weight.
and fearing that to follow ii in detail
would be equally absurd, viii point
YOU to but a few Of the most glazing
Inconsistencies. In the first, please, re-
call the paragraph in which he claims
to have mistaken us for Indians. Is ii
possible that Mr.. Billig owned shot
gun so large that it required wagon

was laying in wait for marauders? And
is 1t probable that a man In hiding
would alarm approaching marauders
before he knew they were not his
friends? Still, this paragraph is no
more ridiculously false than is the
whole narrative, which was conceived
by an inflamed imagination, for surely
no normal mind could produce SO
naladroit tale.
In conclusion l wish to say it was
