MunCie and Marion Fans to Be
Feasted on the Old
Style Game.
CARNIVAL WAS A SUCCESS.
ALTHOUGH ATTENDANCE WAS
NOT AS LARGE AS EXPECTED,
LOCAL LODGE OF ELkS WILL
NET A NEAT PROFIT.
10y forty

The two great eastern teams which
have been taking part in the Elks polo
carnival the past week. have arranged
to play this week at Marion and Mum
Gle. where the fans are hungry for the
sight of the stars of the game Tues
day and Wednesday night. the two
teams will play at Marion and Thurs
day, Friday and Saturday nights they
will play AT Muncie. Monday. the
players will loaf about Richmond, re
cruiting strength for the hard schedule
mapped out for them.
The Elks Of Marion and Munce are
responsible for the series Of games to
be played in those cities, but the local
lodge of Elks will receive a percentage
of the receipts of each game. This is
made possible for the reason that the
contracts signed by the players when
they were brought west by the local
lodge of Elks, provide that the two
teams shall play no place in the middle
west except under the auspices Of the
Richmond lodge of Elks.
The attendance at the games played
here the past week did not come up to
expecteCtations. but at that the attend
ance was very satisfactory and the
Elks are thankful for the patronage ex-
tended by the polo fans of this city.
The attendance each evening averaged
about 800 and il is expected that Elks
will net handsome revenue from the
carnival.
At the Marion games, the two teams
will line up somewhat differently than
they did here. The team to be known
as the marion" five will have its line
mp as follows: Lewis and Bone. rushes:
Doherty, center; Cameron. half back
and Jessup. goal. The team TO be
known as the All Stars" will lineup as
follows: Higgins and Hart. rushea
Mansfield. center; Gardner. halfback
and Sutton. goal. All the players on
the Marion team, formerly played on
teams representing that city with the
exception of Bone and ,Iessup. Lewis
makes his home at indianapolis and he
was induced to get back in the game
At MunCie the two teams will lineup as
they did in Richmond. They will be
known as the "Richmond" and Mum
l Gle teams.

MIAMI PREPARING
FOR THE QUAKERS
Ohio School Will Have Strong-
est Track Team in
Years.
MAY MEET TWO TIMES.
PLACE OF HOLDING CONTEST
MAY S NOT YET DECIDED AND
TWO CONTESTS MAY BE HELD
TO ACCOMMODATE BOTH.

The following is what the Hamilton,
Ohio, Republican News has to say of
the dual athletic meet between Earl
ham College and Miami university:
Arrangements have been concluded
for big dual field meet between Earl
ham college, of Richmond, Ind, and
Miami University. of oxford. 1t was
announced that athletic squads repre-
senting these institutions will meet
May ;. The place has not yet been
selected.
Miami athletes are now in daily prac-
is plenty of good timber at the Butler
county institution and it is safe to say
it will he represented by firSt-class
aggregation. Among Mamis crack
sprinters is Clinton Markley. of
Georgetown, who has pinned up many
records on the cinder path. Markley
will be one of the chief contestants in
the coming match and Miami has yok-
ed its faith in him.
Both Earlham and Miami are now
dickering for the meet to take place
on their respective home grounds. 1t
is sincerely hoped that Oxford gets the
match, but it is said that the question
favors Richmond. If Miami does not
win in bringing the contests to Oxford
it is believed a return meeting will be
held later.
Athletics are receiving much atten-
ton at Miami and from indications its
athletic team this season will be the
strongest in years.

here than in any other place. Be

eral political gossip that always cen
terS here. from 800 to I. 900 newspaper
columns of matter go out from the city
every day. Much of this goes stimuli
taneOnsly TO a large number of papers,
so that the total volume Of news ema-
mating from Washington which is
published by the press of the country
every day, must be several times this
amount. This point is strikingly il
Illustrated by a chart which is published

the second is from g TO : in the even

the same conditions. except that the

TORT REPLIES TO

Claims That Richmond Does

NJ. c. Henley, former manager Of
the coliseum, in signed statement
in the Palladium Friday ey
ening gave the public his reasons for
oDjccting TO the renting of the coli
scum to the Elks for the polo carni-
val held there the past week. The
sum total Of Mr. HenleV's opposition
to this enterprise is contained in the
following paragraph appearing in his
statement Friday EVENING"
In order that we might build up
the business that was so successfully
started the past season and NIenuaI-
ly be ready for the Eastern polo stars
who could be secured one or more
at time to strengthen our teams
and build up the game as it was done
before, objected to renting the coli
scum for the polo carnival to bring
the All Star teams here which in my
opinion would not help the business
for the Athletic association, but on
the contrary it would have the bad
effect it did in kOkOmO, Marion. 10

In making this statement Mr.. Hen
ley appears to have overlooked the
fact that if is not necessary to 'edu-
cate the local amusement public up
to the fastest article of polo. He ap-
parontly tOrgets that for two years
Richmond people saw the fastest arti-
Gle of the great winter sport "on the
market
1t is the opinion of the leading sport
ing people in the city that if profess
siOnal league polo is ever re-introduc-
ed in Richmond the management OF
the coliseum will adopt a poor policy
If 1t attempts to palm off on the
fans an inferior brand OF polo, and. as
Mr.. Henley states eventually streng
then the team by the addition Of east,
ern stars. Richmond people have. as
stated. seen the fastest article of pole
and they will never be satisfied with
an inferior brand. If the old Western
league is TO be revived next fall as
has been limited at, let the league be
a major one rather than a minor
organization.

STUNG IN LAST
GAME OF SERIES
Old Richmond Teams Colors
Lowered by Eastern
Aggregation.
GARDNER WAS KISSED.
CUNNINGHAM, SR., AND EVOKED
THE DIsPLEASURE OF CROWA--
RALLY WAS UNAVAiLlNG.

Richmond saw the Eastern All Stars
wallop the Quakers last night in the
final game Of the series by the score
of s to 5. The first period was as
pretty an exhibition of polo as has
been seen here the past week, but
after the curtain fell en- the opener,
the supply of ginger ran low and the
last two periods proved rather dull
affairs.
Gardner caused excitement in the
first by mixing it up with Cunning
ham, Sr., for which stunt the crowd
gave him a round Kissing.
Notwithstanding his occasional
rowdy tactics, Gardner played splen-
did defensive game. sharing with Cam
eron, Higgins, Sutton and Mansfield,
the honors of the contest. Mansfield
not only played a splendid defensive
game but he was very much among
those present on the offensive.
Sutton also played a grand game at
goal, having twice as much work to
do as Jessup. Higgins was again the
human cyclone anu luS CIo"u
cheered him time and again.
Prior to the opening Of the game,
Harry Griffin won a two mile handi-
cap skating race, beating Cecil Muir
ray and Harry Mitchell in hot fin
ish in the good time of $50.
. The first period was fast and scrap
py. Just As seconds after Higgins
won the first rush, Cameron in mid
floor leaned against a pretty pass and
prisd 1t past Jessup. -Four minutes
later Hart leased an easy one past
Jessup.
Bone counted the first and only tai
~ of the period for the Quakers. He
tossed it into the cage while almost
standing on Sutton's toes. After max
ing this goal Bone left the floor.
Cameron resumed scoring for the
Fasteners by clean drive from the
center of the floor. Hart made the
last goal of the period one minute lat
er, on a pretty dash down floor.
Bone took the place of Cunny, Sr., in
the second, but his addition failed to
strengthen the Quakers TO any notice
able degree.
After three minutes of play Cam
eron made his third goal of the game,
smashing a line drive past Jessup.
Bone followed this tally by counting
after scramble in front of Sutton
Hart ended the scoring of the period
by a count after a pretty dash down
the arena.
In the third Higgins and Hart
counted in rapid order, then Young
Cunningham made his first goal OF
the game. This started a Quaker raj
~, in which Mansfield figured prom
1nently, making two pretty talles.
The lead Of the Greys was too great
to overcome and the contest closed
a half minute after Mansfield's last
goal. Summary:

blow because the leaders of capital or
the spectators worship the god OF
selfshness under the rays of a false
star and yet, amid all this, the cause
of our intended rights has forged
ahead and we are steadily climbing
the summit OF the mount OF victory.
To whom must credit be given for
much of the glorious wealth Of the
world today? Should We (the follow.
ers Of the plow) not be recognized?
Yes, verify | say we are worthy OF
special recognition. Who but tho
farmer is a more important factor in
creating the millions of dollars that
80 into the hands OF the capitalists
every year? And yet he is the least
considered. of industrial agencies,
But in the clamor for liberty it is
remarkable to hear the sentiments ex'
pressed in the heat of the conflict.
The cry is of the same order as is
heard from the depressed legions OF
the wage earners. AS an illustration
we will quote an extract from a ser.
mon we once read in which the good
theologian said:
Good people, things will never 60
well so long as there be Williams and
gentlemen. By what right are they
whom we call lords greater folks than
we? On what grounds have they de-
served it? Why do they hold us in
serfage? If we all come Of the same
father and mother, of Adam and Eve,
how can they say or prove that they
are better than we, if it be not that
they make us gain for them what they
spend on their pride? They are clothed
in velvet and warm in their furs and
ermins, while we are covered with rags
and patches. They have wine and
spices and fair bread, and we eat cake
and straw and water to drink. They
have leisure and fine houses, we have
pain and labor, the rain and the wind
in the fields, and yet it is of us and
our toll that these men hold their
state"
This is one of the many pictures at
which we may look and see our own
conditions.
The dignity Of labor demands that
the laborers are justified in combining
their forces for mutual protection, and
the initiative must be taken by us our
selves, therefore, we have organized our
forces and have shown what formida-
Bile host We are. 1t is case Of a great
nation awakening out Of sleep to see
how large she is. So our hosts have
come to see that they have all power
in their hands, if they can only mani
fest it. We see that the problem is
not easy Of solution, yet each struggle
is a step toward the end, and our army
even at the cost Of many mistakes
and blunders, will continue their aglta-
tion and push their campaign until
some Waterloo, Gettysburg or Plain of
Abraham is reached, where their deci'
sive battle will be fought, and the
cause Of Unionism win its day. TIL
then all hearts must be patient; every
soul in earnest willing to suffer If
need be, until the day of redemption
is at hand
So let us stand hand in hand and
clasping hands, united. all united now,
and united forever. Yours in the
Union.-Wm. r. Burt, Wilton, Ark,

Of the Well-Informed of the World has
