BASKET BALL TEAM
TO COLUMBUS.
Kansas Lads are Expcctedto Give
Jasper Hard Fight.

This basketball team goes to Column
bus tomorrow to attempt to duplicate
on the latler's own court the uumcGciful
drubbing they handed the Jayha Skers
here last mouth. Thcy will probably
vim, but, the game is not expected to Do
waikover. Ths Columbus team has
improved wonderfully since their game
here. Last week they Defeated Gaiena
81 to 7, and few days later Gllenn
held Joplin to % to l6 score. When it
is remembered what II scare Joplin

with KausIs City Central aud Webb
City for the purpose OF securing at
least one game Enr1 ard che at Kansas

will be- rcmem her "a, gave Jasper such a
hard fight last year. Ii is POSSIBLE aiso
that games viii be t.layei with Normal
of Kansas CITY, both here aud on the
Kansas City court.
The game that ~ss stolen from the
Jasper boys last week at Carthage by

Capt. Crawfor !, and Prof. McGiltou OF
Joplin, who is lha PRECEDENT of the
league, has replied stating that full

ter. II tho investiy alton is impartially
conducted, as we have no reason to
doubt it will be, the game will DO credit,
ed to Jasper. II it ia not, there is Wit
al defect in thu rules, which makes such
thing possible as the outright robbery
ola team that has won gsms fairly
aud squarely.
The next game to be played on the
Jasper court vii! be Friday night. jan.
%, when Joplin high will invade Jasper.
This is the team that 10 causing all the
other teams in the league to sit up and

beat them by the scapty margin OF foul
points two weeks sgo, and in the last

 full quarters of an hour had passed in this bewildering confu- sion of sight and sound. For time some fear was felt by some that stampede was imminent. But the po- litlcal generals were glad to give the pent-up enthusiasm of the multitude ths outlet of expression, and at no time was there the slightest apprehension among them that the well-devised plans would miscarry through some overpow- ering movement. Frank II, Hitchcock, the Taft manager, moved about the floor, smiling as the tumult was at It's height.
 "The cheers for Roosevelt to-day will be for Taft tomorrow" he said with confidence.
 With the subsistence of the Roosevelt storm, Senator Lodge completed his stirring speech, and then the convention turned 10 the reports of the other com mttees. That on rules and order brought majority report against the resolution offered by James Francis Burke of Pennsylvania reducing the representation of states to pasIs oI the republican vote cast by these states. MT. Burke presented minority re- port in which seventeen of the states cohcurred.
 The resolution was finally defeated. by the close vote of 506 against All. a margin of seventeen votes In total of 977, three delegates being absent The change of single state might have altered the entire result.
 The final details of the platform are being arranged by the platform com mittee tonight and this accomplished the convention will be equipped to- morrow to make It's declaration of pol Icy and proceed to the selection of can didates. -morrow's session opens at 10 o'clock fin the morning. instead of noon as heretofore, so that a full day may be had for a discussion of prin- ciples and men. The platform Is ex- pected to go before the convention early In the day, and its adoption will be followed by the speeches placing in nomination the candidates for presi- dent.
