CHICAGO WANTS DATES CHANGED
Asks that Races ne Not Run ON Me-
mortal Cay.


CHICAGO, March a.-The contest board
Of the Chicago Automobile club will sug-
gest to Chairman Hover OF the contest
committee Of the American Automobile as
ISOLATION that the two tentatively selected
dates, May Is and %. be changed. The
Chicago motorists deem It advisable. that
May % and 81 be chosen in their stead.
Owing to the fact that Memorial day falls
on Sunday this year. Chicago's business
world will in all probability enjoy a holi-
day on Monday, May 81. 1t is proposed to
have the light car race on May %. By
holding the big race on Monday IL is
thought that. owing to the holiday, a rec
ord attendance would be on hand.
The idea Of having a day intervene be-
tween two races Is a novel one. but IL has
its advantages. Drivers who compete in
the light car race on Saturday. May 29,
will be able to rest up on Sunday for the
classic event, which will be run off the
following Monday. The light car race will
doubtless result in the tearing up of the
raceway at the turns. and all the ruts so
made could be repaired on Sunday. The
fact hat the rules have not been an
nounced is necessarily holding up the en-
tries. but several tentative ones have been
made.

the time OF the Poushkeepsie regatta then
Il Is just possible that a Pacific coast crew
would leave the west earlier and would
take part in this race as part Of tho prepa-
rations for the big Intercollegiate race.
However. AZ Il Is stiri a matter OF mys-
terry whether OF not there will be a Pacific
coast crew at ~Poughkeepsie this year, this
Is very much in the field Of speculation.
The idea at Annapolis apparently was that
varsity and freshman crews OF the col
leges invited would assemble there in May
or in the early part Of June for races at
either two or four miles.
At the very start It appears that a four
mile race is entirely out OF the question
because most coaches would be unwilling
to have their men row a. four-mile race in
May. with another four-miIe race due TO
be rowed in June. 1t would involve some
juggling in the way OF training that would
be a little difficult and might result in
great harm to the crews as Tar as the
larger regatta on the Hudson was con-
cerned. II is likely, too. that there is no
chance that more than one of the Hudson
crews would appear on the Severn. be-
cause Of the request made by the inter-
collegiate stewards that no crews Of the
f1uusOn Tekblla SnOuiu meet III races prev
ious to that regstta.
Mr.. Bated's Resignation.
The withdraw al OF Charles w. Baird as
director of athletics at Michigan has been
made public at length, although for q long
time report has been busy with the idea
that Mr.. Baird soon would leave Michigan.
At the close of the present academic year
he will be succeeded by some one else and
a. prag gafI n Ion. fspao oro that fhfa might
be Phillip G.. Barteleme Of Chicago.
Mr.. Baird had the following to say on the
day when his resignation was announced:
Things are already looking brighter and
l am confident that in another year Michi-
gan will be well on her way back to her
position as leader of the west in athletics
a position which is rightfully hers. The
excellent foot ball schedule which we have
succeeded in arranging for next fall is suf-
ficient evidence that Michigan Athletic as
sociation's events are in no present danger.
We have suffered a good many defeats the
last few years. What Is the cause of those
defeats7 That is a question too complicated
to answer in a single sentence. For anyone
to intimate that any one thing or any single
man was responsible for our slumpfin ath-
letic prestige is f~oolishness. 1t was the
natural result of existing conditions
During Mr.. Baird's stay at Michigan a
great many things were accomplished in the
way of improving the athletic plant OF the
institution and for most of this he is re-
sponsible. His work has been very hard
and Michigan is likely to be very sorry to
lose him, Mr.. Baird says basket ball, which
was begun as an intercollegiate sport this
year at Michigan, will be tried for another
season. The team did not win very many
of its games and did not draw very well,
but 1t is thought that in another year when
the Michigan students become more accus-
toned to the game there. will be a great
deal more interest in it and it, will be worth
while retaining.

JEFFREs MAKES HIT IN EAST

NEW YORK. March 2O-Jim Jeffries has
made a good impression on the sports here
by his appearance. and the general opln-
Ion Is that he'is in better physical condi-
ton than was supposed. 1t is usually easy
TO pick out the one thing in a fighter
makeup that makes him a champion. But
there are many things about Jeffries that
put him In the top division. In the first
place there is his gigantic size and
strength. What is less generally known, is
the fact that Jeffries has a calm, DELHI
crate way of planning. even while the
Tight is going ON. lie uses good headwork.
He Is absolutely game. He is fast. He has
studied out the knaok OF hitting knockout
punches. Jefffles takes a punch and works
over 1t until he has a confidence in him
sen that not even the most terrible pound
ing can sake.
In short. Jeffries has in his makeup the
elements which stamp him as the greatest
fighter Of the time.

NEW YORK, March A.-The 1903 Briar-
cliffe auto race is a surety. Despite
charges and countercharges Of the COM
mittee in charge of the formulating Of the
rules, the race is now assured and the
motor car enthusiast may rub his hands
together in anticipation of a classic road
race hereabout within the next few months.
II. II. Law, son of w. w. Law, donor of
the trophy, states that the contest will
certainly be held this year, He said that
the date would probably be the end of
spring or early In the summer.

race, made the following Find

would not agree on suitable rules and that
the prospects of an agreement were any

visable to abandon the project of drawing

drawn up and will be made public shortly.
The contest is assured. as Mr.. Law is
determined that the event shall not suffer
even though the failure to agree upon
rules made the holding Of 1t only a pos
sibiity. All bore and stroke differences
have been Strengthened out and with the
announcement of the rules the prelimi-
nary work on the race will commence in
earnest. Although the late date in deter
mining upon the rules will, of course.
necessitate the race being held later than

the 1909 Briarcliffe will be one of the
greatest races of its kind ever held in
this section. Several courses are under
contemplation, but it is thought that last
years raceway will finally be decided upon.

HOLDS JUSTICES OF
PEACE RESPONSIBLE
Elk Prosecuting Attorney
Says Failure to Turn
Over Papers Is Cause.
JAIL FULL OF PRISONERS
The Above Conditions Combined
Caused the Injustice of Which
Two Were Victims.

Attorney D. z. Boone, ex-prosecut-
ing attorney, was asked this morning
how it could possibly happen that two
prisoners like Joe Melevski and C. W.
Holmes of Gary could be sent to the
county jail and forgotten, as was re-
Gently the case.
Mr.. Boone said that he had gone
through the county jail repeatedly dur
ing his recent administration in an eff
fort to find out If any of the prisoners
have been held unjustly.
He says that Sheriff F. S. Carter will
testify to this fact and that every pre-
caution. has been taken to prevent just
such an injustice as was done the two
Gary men.
But Mr.. Boone says it is not at all
surprising that prisoners were commit
ted to the county jail and then forgot
ten when the justice in the case for
got to send up a transcript in the
case.
That is the only record the prose-
cutor has to go by and if the tran
script is lost the prisoner is lost. 1t
is a good deal like checking a parcel.
If the check is lost the parcel is lost.
Mr.. Boone said the carelessness of
Lake county justices is the cause of
great deal of trouble for the prose-
cutor. In one case Mr.. Boone said that
he ran his automobile over 100 miles
in an effort to find out what a pris-
oner, who was held in the county jail,
was charged with.
Mr. Boone says that another cause
of confusion is the practice of certain
justices of permitting any attorney, not
connected with the prosecutors office,
to prosecute case. Of course this
takes the record of a case out of the
hands of the prosecutor or his depu-
ties and the transcript is sometimes
lost.
There are so many prisoners in the
Jail that unless the prosecutor would
take the trouble to call the roll every
morning he would not know whether
man was being unjustly detained
There IS not an official who had any
thing to DO with the case who is not
sorry that Joe Melevski and c. w
Holmes We're unjustly incarcerated but
it is one of those things that happen
occasionally inadvertently.

sHERIFFS IN DILEMMA
Ex- Sheriff F. S. Carter Says
That Officials Don't Know
Where They Are At.

A second meeting following close on
the heels of a former one was held by
the Sheriffs' association of Indiana in
Indianapolis this week, at which time
the organization was perfected.
Ex-SheriT Fred 3 Carter did not at
tend the second meeting, and, while out
of office, is nevertheless interested in
the movement of the organization, as
it is interesting itself in behalf of a
bill for the legislature regarding the
in-and-out fees.
Speaking of this Mr.. Carter said:
NO. The sheriffs of Indiana receive
the same salaries, some return the
in-and-out fees, while others . retain
them. A sheriff never knows where
he is at. The legislature eat its last
session passed a bill regulating this
feature, but Governor Hanly vetoed
the measure at the last moment"

1OO ALIENS WILL
SEEK THEIR PAPERS
Federal Court Will Do Some
Naturalizing in April
Next.
NUMBER MAY Be INCREASED
Two Fathers Will Take Out Papers
and Make Twenty One American
Citizens Thereby.

When the federal court coDvenes for
the April term in Hammond there will
be an even 100 aliens who Will appear
In open court with two witnesses each,
making 800 persons in all, for the pur-
pose of receiving their full citizens pa
pers.
This number may be increased con-
siderably, as any person who cares to
take out his second papers may de-
clare his intention up until next Tues
day. After that the limit of the law
will have been passed and those who
desire to get their second papers will
have to wait until the next time Judge
A. B. Anderson sits in the federal
court in Hammond.
The fact that there are over 100
persons in this county who will declare
in open court next April that they de-
sire to become full -hedged American
citizens, is the best indication that the
democratic claim that foreigners are
given their first papers simply to make
voters out of them is a calumy
1t Makes No Difference.
So far as a foreigners suffrage is
concerned he is just as well able to
vote after he has secured his first pa
peFS as ne Will De aIteT ne secures his
second papers. and yet 100 of them
have enough patriotism to want to be-
come full fedged citizens to go to the
trouble and expense of taking out the
last papers.
BY the act of naturalizing 100 aliens
next March nearly 200 persons will be-
come American citizens. for as soon as
the parents become Americans that
makes citizens of all of the children
who were born on foreign shores.
In fact, two fathers have such large
families that when they are given
their second papers there will at once
be twenty-one Americans added to the
population of Hammond. The melting
pot is claiming the aliens rapidly and

NEW USE FOR COLLIE
Delinquent Offers Dog in
Payment for Rent
Bill.

A Hammond man recently offered his
collie dog as part payment for the
rent on his house. This is probably the
most unique offer that has ever been
made in this city
When his landlord pressed him for
his rent and threatened to put him
out if he did not pay he managed to
get together enough money to make
a part payment on the rent
This was not satisfactory and so the
hard-pressed man offered his collie dog
to make up the difference The land
lord took the matter as a good joke
and told several of his friends about
it.
At last reports the Hammond man
was still holding the fort and the dog
was still in his possession
