Used by Children.

Shawneetown, ILL.,, Feb. 1.-THE
vacant court rooms in the court
house are being used as school by
the children of this place. This is
a new use for the building, which
has stood since the late "forties' y
not only as a temple of Justice but
as place of refuge for the people
during the three floods which have
swept the town.
The boys and girls in the towns
are coming their lessons in the
same rooms where Abraham Lin

Logan and Robert Ingersoll and
other less noted men have praatic-
ed law.
The school building was Destroy
ed by fire several days ago. A new
one will be erected but the schools
will continue throughout the pres
ent term in the court house. The
new building will probably be COM
pleted by fall.

Ann Arbor, Mich, Feb. IL
With the beginning today of the
Il "trying-out" process for Michigan
baseball candidates, Ann Arbor fans
are looking forward to what prom
ises to be the most strenuous base
ball season in the history of the in
stitution. The nine will make an
eastern trip during the coming sea-
son Ito play Cornell University,
Brown, Syracuse, possibly Pennsyl-
vania, and a few minor colleges.
During the spring vacation the club
will make a southern trip on which
it will meet Vanderbilt, Kentucky,
Tennessee and several smaller col
leges.
About 40 men have signed up for
the baseball squad, and as Michigan
has only lost three of her last years
nine, it looks as though she would
have another winning team this
year. The men who will not re-
/ turn are: Martin, left field; Whip
Eple, pitcher, and McGarrety.
Va general utility man. Lew Meal
Ulster will coach the team this year.
HE coached Michigan for two sea
sons, winning the championship
