Tie Soccer Game to

Albion Rovers and Thistles viii
Clash Again To-day at
Freenlan's Park
By Bob Shand

Some real football was seen at Free
mans park last Sunday. when the
Albion Rovers and the Thistles hooked
up In their delayed cup game. with
one exception, the match was the best
that has been seen here this season,
and it is an open question whether the
play was not as good as that in the
memorable Rover Vampire game at
Alameda The brlIiancy of the play
led many to inquire why such an ex-
hibition was not given every Sunday,
for If the teams can display such
cleverness in single gama they ought
to be able to provide first rate con-
test every time they play.
Lack of training in the early part
of the season initiated against the sue
cess of the Thistles and it only re-
Gently that the men have gone in for
training. The conditioning process was
apparent in the second half, when mine
out of 10 spectators expected the
Scotch team to blow up, as was their
wont The Rover team. however, was
the one that was the worse for wear
at the finish of the contest, and it was
tonly luck that prevented the Oakland
team being dismissed from the COM
petition. The second half resolved it,
self into a contest between the Rover
defense and the Thistle attack. and
were one to ask the Rover defenders
how the ball was kept out of the net on
many occasions they would have to adj
nit they didn't know.
The game will be replayed at Free
mans park this afternoon.
The Thistles, by the way, are the
crack "drawists" of the local clubs. In
the league competition they tied with
the Rovers and San Franciscos and in
the cup contest they had two drawn
games with the San Franciscos and to
date one with Albion Rovers.
The Vampires realized expectations
by getting away with the long end of
the score in their contest with the
Wanderers. The Saturday 1eaguers"
put up a better game than the score.
8 to 0, would indicate, and the Vamps
had many anxious moments during the
game. with little more experience
the Wanderers will be the equal of
many of the big league teams and en-
deavors are already being made to have
them come into the Sunday league next
season.
If the Rovers and Thistles man
age to settle their differences today the
semifinal between the Independents and
Burns will be played next week and the
following Sunday the winners of to-
days game will play the Vampires.

(By Associated Press.)


Denver, Mar. 14.-An attempt was
made at about $3.50 am. today by
Giuseppe Ala, the condemned muir
derer of Father Heinrichs. to escape
from the county jail.
ALA slashed the neck of trusty
with razor blade, then made rush
to get away. The trusty. despite his
wound, rushed after him and pin
ioned him, and Ala was quickly ov-
empowered with the aid of Deputy
Warden Carpen.
When returned to the jail after
his conviction Thursday Ala was
stripped of everything and a COM
plete new outfit was given him. He
was then placed in the cell for the
condemned, which had been thor
oughly swept and cleaned, and was
supplied with new bedding. The cell
had formerly been occupied by an
Italian named Bernati. who accom-
panied ALA to Denver from New
York, and who on Thursday was re-
moved to another part of the jail.
Bernati was released last night,
and as he passed Alias cell he spoke
to the condemned man in Italian. 1t
is believed that Bernati may have
left the razor concealed in a bowl of
water in a closet in the cell.

Colorado Springs, Mar. 14.--In a

Deputy Sheriff John E. Schofield
fought and killed Sam Barkwell, a
mill man living in Colorado City.
The two men had gone to the Of
ficer's house, where Barkwell had
promised to give important infor-
nation regarding the murder of OF
to Fehringer.
Barkwell told the deputy that he
could solve the murder mystery. He
tried to induce the officer to go with
him to lonely place near Colorado
City. Schofield refused, but sug-
gested that they go to his home
where they would be alone. The
shooting occurred there.
Schofield narrowly escaped in
stant death by shot from Bark
wells revolver. The only thing that
saved his life was a book of street
car passes which he had in his in
ner pocket. The bullet struck this
book and then glanced off, merely
grazing the flesh.
Barkwell was a prisoner at the
county jail and was suspected of
having killed Fehringer.
