CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. Feb. l.
Georgetown had little trouble in de-
feating Virginia at basketball tonight
in the Fayerweather gymnasium by A.
to 10.
The game was fairly close at the
outset but toward the end OF the first
half the Georgetown players took a
squirt which did not END until the close
Of the forty minutes of play. The first
half ended with the score standing p
TO 10 in favor Of the Washingtonians
In the second period Georgetown
slipped away fr1r, Virginia in the very
beginning, finding the basket with f.
cility. In this twenty minutes a totst
Of twenty points was run up. while thy
best the locals could do was 10 land
one field goal and four free goals.
The game put up by Georgetown was
a revelation 10 the large crowd and the
play was frequently Punctuated by ap-
plauss. The work Of Fred Rice was es-
pcciallv brilliant. He followed the ball
in great style. and himself scored eight
cen points. one less than Virginia's to
tai. The two Collifower brothers also
played strong games. George having
five field goals 10 his credit. The con
test was noticeably free from rough
ness The visiting players were given
a Tousing reception, when they first
appeared upon the floor. a vigorous Viz
GINA yell being given led by Cloth. the
football captain. Frequently during the
contest the individual work Of Rice and
the ColHhower brothers brought forth
applause.

IN MISSOURI.

Fritz Mime and Heb Fitzgerald hold
the honors as coon hunters, as does
their cog for keenness OF scent. They
were out hunting some time ago. when
old Watch struck a trail. He trailed
along very slowly at first, indicating
cold trail. but at last ne freed. The
boys cut the tree and found only
small hole. They concluded OF course,
that Watch had lied. However, they
cut a hole in the log and found the
hair and bones Of a coon that had been
there so long that the hole had grown
up and the coon had starved to death

WALTER JOHNSON
SIGNS CONTRACT
WITH NATIONALS
Charley Smith, Street,
and Petersen Are
Also in Line.

All doubts about whether Walter
johnson. washington s pitching md OF
last season. would play with the club
this year were removed yesterday when
his signed contract was received AZ
baseball headquarters here
The contracts Of Charley Smith.
Charles Street, and Lenne Petersen wers
also received yesterday.
IT had been reported that Johnson
would jump Washington 10 pitch in the
outlaw league Ola tie Pacific Coast tins
year and there were some fears that he
might take such a step, even after ne
had written assurance 10 friends here
that he had no intention Of quitting
Manager CantiIon. His contract clears
the situation and is ore Of the most
cheering bits Of news Washington fans
have received since the close Of last
season.
Two Best Pitchers.
johnson las been working on the SLAB
in winter games on the coast ana max
ing a great record. both in the box and
al bat. He should have no trouble
rounding into condition when he reports
at &c weston, unless he has. been too
worked himself.
Charley Smiths signature removes an
other doubt. il was supposed that
Charley was sulking I'm his tent in
Cleveland and would not report unless
be received extra inducements which
did not appear on the face Of the docu-
ment forwarded him Canullon expects
Smith To DE d hish-class twirier next
season. possibly the best on the Wash

he hopes TO manage to buy club.
Petersen Is a blond giant who has
been pitching for two years on indie
pendenl teams in Iowa and South Da-
kota. much as Walter Johnson did in
the Idaho League. He is described as
a holy terror and IS credited with pitch
ing nine uO-hit glmes last year He
is that good he is likely TO die young

Figures Tell the Story.

It is a fayOrite assertion of brew
ers and liquor men generally
that drunkenness increases in
communities which have driven
out the saloon. This argument l..
heard in every place in which there
is local option contest. Of
course no evidence is produced
to suostantiH,e the assertion, for
the simple reason that it is no.
true. On the contrary, the eyi-
dence is on the other side. With
the saloons closed there is at once
ii decrease in drunkenness and dis
turbances. There is some drink
ing, of course, as there is robbery
and horse stealing and other crimes
notwithstanding the laws against
them.
Massachusetts towns which have
tried saloons and are now doing
wlthon: them furnish some inter
esting figures which give the lie TO
the favorite plea of the liquor in.
terests. Arrests for drunkenness
in eight towns Of that state for tie
last year in which saloons were
operated and the first year there
were no saloons, show the follow

this fight that is now going on for

the water wagon rumbIing over a

like the Times was trying to rub ii

meaning that ''He" permitted
