CREIGHTON OPENS OCTOBER Z
Coaches Are working Hard to Get
Team In shane.

With the approach Of the first game of
the season, scheduled for October D.
scarcely two good weeks remain for the
Creighton foot ball team to get into shape
for the opening contest. The Creighton
coaches are beginning to realize the
amount of work that is ahead of them
II they Intend to turn out a winning team
this year. Not a moment appears to be
wasted, and last night some of the regu-
lar plays were given to the candidates
who are holding down the positions tenn
porarily.
The competition for the various places
is unusually keen, and from present in
dications the struggle for permanent
berths will last right up to the final
game on Thanksgiving day.
The only man who seems to have any
thing like a sure thing is Morganthaler in
his old place at left tackle. His speed
and weight, supplemented by his forward
passing, ought to land his as a regular
Tor the rest of the year.
The new plays were somewhat crudely
handled, due, no doubt, to the green ma
rious formations were interspersed by fire.

to anything resembling team work. The
line especially Is slow in starting and
getting down the field under punts and
needs a lot of life instilled into it before
they can appear anything like ''cham-
pions.' The coaches are hardly at fault,
as they are continually harping on the
men about their lack of speed in the line.
The back field presents a more favor
able appearance and 1t looks as though
It will be no time before they will get
the plays running like clockwor
The real fight for any one position on
the team Is that at center. Among the
number trying for this location Sierecks
and Gillespie are making the best show
ing, with neither man possessing any ad-
vantage over his rival. A goodly mum
Der are out for the place Of guards, but
Lynch and Bloedohrn loom up as possible
fixtures guarding the center, and with a
little more speed and ginger ought to hold
down the Job. Nothing approaching a
selection of ends or backs have as yet
been made. With three sets of backs and
almost twice as many ends, the coaches
are having their hands full to weed out
the candidates.
In last nights practice sierecks was ir

Crops were much benefited by a

Western section of the county this
afternoon. The rain did not last long
but while it did rain there was quite
downpour, helping the corn crop
especially The drouth had not done
much damage, but the farmers were
becoming alarmed and for several
days have been watching weather
signs with a good deal of anxiety be-
cause with the unusually wet spring
it was realized that corn could not
stand a drouth of any length of time
this year The rain also helped the
grass and hay crops very materially,
but vegetables were most benefited.

LOUISIANA TOWN
HAS RACE TROUBLE
ITALIANS ARE DRIVEN OUT OF
NATALBANY, A LUMBER
SETTLEMENT.

NATALBANY, La, July ga
| threatened race strife between Ital-
! ians and Americans was averted to-
| day by the hasty flight from this COM
munity of about $50 Italians, compos-
ing nearly the entire foreign popula-
ton. These refugees have gathered
mostly in Hammond, La, and New
Orleans. Gov. Sanders, the Italian
Consul at New Orleans and Sheriff
Saal, by their combined efforts have
restored quiet, and the prospects are
that by tomorrow many of the Italians
will begin returning to their homes.
The presence here of the Italian
Vice Consul at New Orleans, Count
Morroni has been reassuring to Amer
leans who feared an outbreak in a
colony of about 5000 Italians living
within five to ten miles of Natalbany
Count Morroni's purpose was to per-
suade these Italians to restrain their
tempers.
The American men in Natalbany,
numbering less than 100, were under
arms for about twelve hours, alarmed
by reports that Italians intended to
attack and dynamite the town. These
reports proved groundless, and what
was last night in the dark mistaken
for camp of about 500 biligerent
Italians, was today found to be band
of thirty frightened refugees. 1t was
not until late today, however. that the
tension was materially relieved.
Early in the day there occurred
typical case of the outbreaks which
have caused the present trouble. An
Italian was attacked by Americans be-
cause he refused to stop carrying his
shotgun, and he was wounded slightly
in the foot before escaping. His com.
panions were roughly handled. In
previous skirmishes between the
races, two Italians were wounded and
one American killed.

ed the Senator this year. He said
that he believed the county should
have hal the Senator in 1906 and
having presented a candidate in every
way worthy and qualified there should
be no question about Maury county's
support
Mr. Greer accepted the invitation
10 speak with thanks. He recounted
his work as a man and a Democrat
and told Of the action of the Demo
Gratis of his home county and pleaded
for justice TO Perry county Demo
Gratis. He said that he appeared as
a plain Democrat; that he was not a
factional Democrat, but if he went to
the Senate he would represent all the
people of the district and the only
collar that he would wear would be
the old-fashioned Democratic collar.
Mr.. Greer was applauded
Secretary Smiser, at the conclusion
of Mr. Greer's remarks, offered the
following resolution, which was unan-
imously adopted:
Whereas the Democrats of Perry
county have nominated the Hon. John
A. Greer as the Democratic candidate
to represent this the 2Oth Senatorial
district in the Senate of the next
general assembly of the State of Ten
nessee, and
Whereas, we believe that said Greer
is a true and worthy Democrat in
whose hands we can safely trust the
interests of our people, and,
Whereas, we the Democratic Elk
ecutive Committee of Maury county,
believe that it is the will of a ma
jority of the Democrats of Maury
county and that said nomination
should be endorsed and ratified and
that Maury county should offer no
candidate in opposition to the candi-
lacy of said Greer;
Therefore, be it resolved that we
10 hereby endorse and ratify this said
