EACH MAN CONFIDENT
OF BATTLES OUTCOME
SMITH AND VAN HORN WANT
TO MINGLE
Boys in McCarey's Tryout Show Well
Trained and Fans May See a
Good Show for Little
Money

n USSELL VAN HORN and RUDE
X. Smith will get together at the
~ Cabin Tuesday night, and each
is confidently expecting to receive his
diploma from the pork and bean ranks
because of beating the other. Both boys
realize that they have a chance TO go
as far as they like, and if ambition
and confidence count for anything they
will put up one real scrap.
Since he started to work Smith has
spared no effort to get in shape, and
day after day has tackled big jim
Flynn in the fiercest kind of training
bouts The Fireman did not spare his
opponent in the least but Rube's de-
termination stood him in good stead.
and he sent back his best without a
sign of retreating.
And Van Horn has been up about the
same kind of a stunt. Day after day
he has taken OH the best to be found at
the Cabin and his condition is superb.
Some one whispered to Van that he
was a possible candidate to meet JIM
my Gardner if he won from Smith. and
this has so stirred Russell up that he
will bet the family plate on himself.
All the boys in McCarey's bunch are
in shape, and the Tuesday show at the
Cabin should be about the best thing
of it's kind ever held in the classic
old fight barn. Popular prices will
prevail and the gang is expected to be
out in force to get it's moneys worth.

JUNIOR SAINTS HAVE
AN EXCELLENT RECORD
EIGHT STRAIGHT VICTORIES TO
THEIR CREDIT
Team Contains Many Stars and VIII
Depart on Tour of the North.
Hope for Untarnished
Score Sheet

Neversin the history of ST. Vincent's
college has so much interest been shown
in baseball as is being displayed this
year. When Coach Hempel first called
his men out for practice the response
was so great that he deemed 1t neces-
sary to form high school team.
This was done for No other reason
than to give every man fair chance
to develop in. this line. This Is the first
time that the college has put out two
teams, and it has proved a success.
The varsity squad has just finished a
successful season by winning the last
series of games from the crack Berke-
ley team, and can be favorably COM
pared with the two northern UNIVERSE
ties.
A still more successful season is that
being played by the high school team.
The youngsters have been putting up
a class of ball that can favorably be
compared with the local college article.
BY twice besting the crack Pomona
high school team, they have defeated
what was supposed TO be the peer of
southern academic teams. The Saints
have won eight successive games from
the nearby high schools, and as yet
have lost to none.
The team is composed of youngsters
who are in the preparatory department
of the college. On tho team are sew
eral who have great future before
them.
The team will leave on the northern
trip next Thursday and remain away
one week. 1t will go as far as Santa
Barbara, where the high school team
of that place will be played. Games
are scheduled with Oxnard, Santa
Paula and Ventura. Coach Moores has
great hope In the team and thinks that
they will be able to come back with o
record unstained by defeat.

Half Million For Tomatoes

"Botetourt has more tomato Gamer
les than any other county in the State,
there being close to two hundred Of
these enterprises scattered through the
county, said j. Lucian Moomaw, OF
Botetourt, the Secretary of the State
Farmers Institute, which is to begin
it's fifth annual convention in the JEFF
ferson hotel.
The industry is one which the peo-
pie have no conception of in its magni-
tude and the revenue it brings in the
county. These canneries pack some.
thirg like $4,000 to 400, 900 cases in q
season, and each case contains tive
dozen three pound cans. That will
give some idea of the amount Of work
done and what the county receives.
The stuff is shipped to practically
every city In the country. The brand
of goods sent out from Botetourt ID
known the world over, and the product
stands high, ranking with the best
sent cut rom any section.
"We receive anywhere from $500, 00C
to SOC, 900 every year for our tomatoes,
and it will be seen that this is pretty
good sum to come from one industry
The farmers have other crops, too, and
it can be seen that cid Botetourt is not
SO slow.-Richmond News Leader

The unequivocal attitude Of the
democrats Of West Virginia in favor Of
separate coach laws and disfranchse-
ment laws that Will exclude illiterate
and irresponsible persons from the
ballet is especially significant at this
time, because West Virginia is bor-
der state and doubtful state. Before
the Democracy was overtaken by the
calamity of 1896, West Virginia
was generally the democratic
column, and it is reassuring to
the democrats of the South that it is
faithful to the southern ideas about the
negro in politics.
