principles of the game played by the
Springfield team remain. The con
test, as it was first played, required
nine men on side-three centerS,
three forwards and three backs-and
these rules were kept in force for the
first four years the game was in exist
ence, when the number of players on
a side was cut to seven, dropping the
forward and the guard, and two years
later, in 1897, the team was cut to five
men-two forwards, one center and
two guards-the feeding" center being
omitted.
The game as it was played even as
late as 1897 simply was harum
scarum scramble, with little or no team
work Each man played the ball when
and where he pleased, and 1t was not
until the advent of the professional
coach, which was in 1900, that the
game was reduced to the scientific ba-
sis 1t now holds.
Basket ball as it Is played now first
began to develop in 1897, when the
number Of men was cut to five, and
some idea Of team work began to take
hold of the players. In 1900 the pro-
fessional coach made his appearance,
bringing with him signals and team
play, and the game began to shape It.
self into scientific contest in place Of
a mere tumble of players.
The men were assigned to regular
positions and had their regular duties
to perform. passing was made into
some order. and goal shooting was de-
veloped to a high degree. Then the
rules Of the game were put into more
definite form, and the present form of
the game gradually began to shape It.

The play has had tendency to grow

spectators and players for more strin

play.
In basket ball the field Is so small

would marry him. The ten days had
not expired when the tragedy was dis
covered.
There followed a search for Lucy
Avellone and her baby. They had not
been seen for two days about the
handsome Avellone estate. Had they
left the province it would have been
noted. A searching party came upon
the dead bodies Of the girl mother and
her baby in a well in the garden Of the
Avellone estate. A note under a stone
in the wall of the well told the story.
She related how she had drugged
Campanile. not to kill him by such an
easy and merciful manner, but to rem
der him temporarily senseless SO that
she could place him alive into the
grave to which he had sent her father.
She wrote that before the body of Cam
ranile was wholly covered with earth
he became conscious and she had the
Joy Of seeing him struggle against the
death that was overtaking him. Then
she and the young man hurried to fill
the grave so that he could not escape.
She watched there until he was dead.
Her revenge then being complete.
she prepared for her own death and
that of the child. When all had been
arranged she held the baby in her
arms and leared into the well.

The recent refusal Of Senator JEFF
Davis to wear conventional evening
dress to dinner recalls the fact that
Senator Bailey once objected to such
attire, though he some time ago waived
these objections. His abstention from
a reception at the White House on the
ground that he was principled against
wearing evening clothes made him
much talked about ar this time.
This was not Mr.. Bailey's initial pro-
nouncement, however, on the subject
OF wearing apparel. 1t is related that
when he first went to Gainesville, a
brietess young lawyer, his low cut
vest. extremely long frock coat, ex-
tremely broad hat and immaculate
whiteness of tie appealed to the risi-
bilities of the natives. and on one o.
casion some men attempted to have
fun to Bailey's face Oh the subject OF
his clothes.
