CHICAGO. Nov. 27.-The specter OF
tragedy claimed ats share Of the spirit
of Thanksgiving last night In a little
fiat at 40 West Fifteenth street, where
husband CTazed with drink fired twice
at his wife with murderous intent, and
then, turning his smoking revolver on
himself, sent a bullet thro ugh his heart
The shooting finished the unhappiest
day of the year the wife has spent for
there was but little Thanksgiving in the
home of Edmund MCCabe. an engineer,
who spent the day in varying stages or
intoxication, and ended it by attempting
murder and then committed suicide.
From her meager resources the wife
had arranged a turkey dinner. She
spent hours arranging the details, send
ing her husband from the house IN tne
early morning so that she might have
the little fat to herself while she pre-
pared the Thanksgiving meal.

lsTsnough the full baseball schedule
of Rock Hin College has not been made
public as yet, Manager J. C. Burchinal
has permitted the publication of seven
games which the Blue and White team
IS sure OF playing next spring.
The Ellicott City college has made
great plans for the coming baseball sea-
son, and great things are expected OF
the team. The reputation. OF the college

who will probably play with Washing

members Of the squad have returned,
and, consequently, a strong team is pre-
dicted
AS the lineup OF the team will be
practically the same as last year, a
line can be obtained on their strength
from the work they did last year. Bren-
nan. last years captain, will be the re
Ceiving end OF the battery, with Ma
Euire and Dunn pitching. These tWirl-
ers have done splendid work IN tho
past, and it is mainly upon their pitch
ing ability that the Blue ana White
men rely to win the majority OF their
games.

probable that Toomey, last years
second baseman. will DO shifted 10 that

ton on the team, and is an especially
heavy hitter. Thebaud. a veteran or
