Not long ago Moses was in this city
and while here he talked much praise
OF Fairbanks. An Administration man
kindly led him aside and told him sto
keep quiet on that note OF discord.

Then he journeyed back to Texas and
had much more 10 say about Why Fair

Moses c. Harris lifts UP lis voice in
Texas and admits in picturesque and
newly Invented phrases that a Presi-
dental boom is sometimes a boomerang.
and that this kind of boomerang has
soaked him squarely, brutally, and ia
tally between the eyes.
Moses c. Harris is full Of these ad-
missions, because he monkeyed with the
Presidential boom of Charles Warren

close to IT, so close to IL that Il stung
him. and. finally. in a Mt of enger. de-
livered the las and telling blow between
the eyes of -foses c. Harris.
The story of Moses, politics and boom

mournfulness. Moses originated in Ar

CARLIN AND GORDON
BATTLE FOR OFFICE
Virginia Representative and
Opponent Covering District
on Speaking Tour.

According to the wisest political
guessers in the Eighth Virginia Con-
gressional district, Charles c. Carlln
stands. 10 win a decided victory Tuesday
over Lindsay Gordon, who is trying
TO get to Congress in Carlin's place.
Carlin is from Alexandria and Cor
don is from Louisa county. Tuesday
the primaries viii be held throughout
the district, and the prophets are say
ing that Carlin win carry every county
in the district except Louisa. II is
pretty well conceded that Carlin will
poll tremendous vote IN Alexandria
county.
The campaign which the two men
have been making for the Democratic
has been full Of oratory and
anidavits. The Gordon men have made
amidavits that Carlin used money and
whisky TO secure his nomination 10 the
present Congress, and Cariin has made
equally en- phatie statements that he
used no such means for his political
advancement and that. If his friends
took this course, it was without his
knowledge or consent.

And outside the black storm made
the darkness fall early. And inside

causing a cloud of golden sparks,
and then the flames leapt up again
and cracked in the CRATE.
The lady moved one hand from

She smiled with the tenderness a
mother might have done.
"There-there!" she said. mot

Paul stood up to his fun height.
He put out his arms to draw her to
him, but she eludcd him and darted
aside.
He gave a great sigh of pain.
Slowly she came back and bent
over and over of her own accord
so low that at last she was level with
his face. And slowly her rcd lips
melted into his young lips in long,
strange kiss.

FATS WALLOPED
 BY ENSLEY LEANS
GAME WAS REMARKABLY ExCIT- ING, NEARLY THREE HOURS BE- ING CONSUMED IN PLAYING THE FIVE INNINGS.

Ensley, May S.-(Special.)-By the hand some score of IS to Il did the Leans lay it over the Flats" in the most exciting game of baseball ever played In Ensley. That the game was fast and snappy can be judged from the fact it took two hours and a half to play five innings, and that only 26 errors were made. Manager Me Leod of the Fats and Captain Day spent most of their time discussing the political situation, and so heated did their arguments become that Umpire Tom Rowe declared martial law in order and called out St. Anthonys cadets to quell the disturbance. The features of the game were the fielding of w. L. Clark, who made the only catch in the entire game, much to the surprise of the assembled multitude, including himself; the terriflc hitting of Bob Daniels, the elusive twlr- ling of Fred Moore (once the pride Of the University of Alabama) and the ele- phantine grace and cowlike agility dis played by Messrs. Goldsmith, Ramage and Jordan.

COLLEGE GAMES
Alabama Beats Tech.

Tuscaloosa, May S.-(Special. .)-ln the first game of the series Alabama had little trouble in defeating Georgia Tech in spite of the fact that her team was badly crippled The score was to 1. Pope Alabama's hard hitting second baseman, and Hannon, shortstop, were not in the game Waite and Thorington, however. were substituted and filled the places of the regulars in excellent fashion. Owing to Smiths wonderful pitching and his steady support the result was never in doubt Tech never had q chance against him, only two hits being made off his benders, one budding in the first inning and the other in the eighth. The fea- lures of the game were the fielding of Robert, left fielder for Tech, and the batting of Pratt and Jones of Alabama.
 Alabama took the bat and wasted no time in starting something. Reidy first up. was sent to the bench for letting three good ones by; Watson flew out to left field, Pratt then hit safe and Noojin got one in the ribs. Booze Jones then hit for two bags, scoring both Vaughan ended the inning, pitcher to first.
 In the second inning Alabama added another Waite got one in the solar plexus. Thorington hit to short and on tho second baseman's pebble, both run ners were safe. Smith hit safe, scoring Waite, Thorington going out at third. Reidy flew out and on the next play, Nooiin running for Smith was out at the plate.
 There was nothing else of interest till the sixth Pratt started hostilities with a drive to left. Having been neatly sacrificed to second by Noojin, he scored when Jones drove a beauty through Techs left wing. Waite next up laid the plate open with a two-hagger and Jones came home This ended Alabama's SCOT ing.
 The Yellow Jackets got their single score in the eighth. The first man up got first on low throw, was sacrificed to second and third. The next man up poked measley single over third base and thereby saved Tech from what looked like certain shut-out.

Columbus, Miss, May S.-tSpecial)-The official score gives Monroe F hits. The scorer gives the batter hit when the fielders do not touch the ball. The field CTS seemed to think Demaree could pitch, field all the balls, make all the hits and runs without assistance. Demaree showed excellent form at the start. In the second inning all three visitors famed. The hard luck pitcher had the sympathy of the crowd and with ragged, slow sup port from his team mates he seemed to get dsgusted and saved his arm. With out effort he famed ten and did not give single pass to first.
