East for Their Ancestors.

The Chinese are rapacious eaters at
the feasts which are given in honor
Of their ancestors. At these feasts the
tables groan with all the good things
which the most efficient cooks can
provide-pork, snow white rice, pick
led cucumbers, chickens, ducks and
birds nest soup. For some minutes
before the feast the six or seven hum
dred men sit at the tables in silence.
Then at given signal begin the clink.
ing of chopsticks and the noise OF
indrawn breaths by which the Chi
nese cool the hot mouthfuls of rice
which they shovel down their threats.
Presently, when the hot samshu be-
gins to work and the faces become
flushed, babel of voices fills the
temple.

ABEY GETS A BIG
JOLT FROM LAD
Loser, Scared in the Early
Rounds, Leads in the
Last Three.

Memphis, Tenn, Dec. Abe AttelI
was badly scared by Charlie White, the
1S-year-old featherweight phenom of
Chicago last night in their eight round
go here. The champion of all the 1872
Founders had an easy time in the first
five rounds, chasing White around the
ring, but in the last three the little fell
low from the Windy city loosened up
Referee Dave Barry gave the verdict to
the champion.
Had not White been the victim of a
bad case of stage fright, he might have
made a great name for hims elf, and as
it was he came out OF the ring with
plenty of glory. He fairly outboxed
Abe in the long range work, landing the
more effective punches. His work was
a revelation to local fans, who ex-
pected to see him hopelessly outclassed
by the champion
White plainly was badly scared "a
the early rounds. He allowed Attell to
chase him and seemed contented to
guard himself. In the sixth round, see
ing that he probably would be beaten,
he tore loose His work then was pref
ty in the extreme. Attell. who had been
smiling at the press box finally found
that he had a real fighter in front of
him.
White got several hard rights and
lefts to the champions mouth and jaw,
and, although they did not daze Able,
they brought blood from his mouth and
made the decision he earned a hair line
one, to say the least. Had White start
ed his rally a little sooner he would
have been entitled to draw at least
This was the opinion of the majority
of those at the ringside-

STANDING AT MIDNIGHT.

New York, Dec. 1.-Two worlds rec
ords smashed. two ambitious riders suf-
fering from dislocated shoulders and
the elimination of the Shirley German
team from the struggle for first money
were just a few of the exciting events
of the first day OF tho annual six-day
bicycle race at Madison Square Garden.
Twelve thousand fanatics packed the
big arena and spent hours yelling their
heads off when some rider would shoot
from the bunch and start wild squirt.
With Logan and Wiley out of the
contest by falls at death curve" that
broke their shoulders. only fifteen
teams are left in the race.
Shirley and Germain were thrown
into the discard when the latter lost
one lap after three-mile dizzy sprint
started by Root. Shirley went to
pieces and lost fifteen laps more be-
tween and 10 o'clock Shirley. who

some of his competitors were at school

STAGG NOT PLANNING
GAME WITH MICH.
Maroon Director Returns
and Says He Knows Moth
ing of big 5" Scheme.

Coach A. Alonzo Stagg of the Univer-
sity of Chicago will not act as sponsor
for the Big Five" union of Chicago,
Illinois. Upon his return from Hot
Springs. Ark. yesterday he declared
himself a toal stranger to such a plan.
The apathy OF Coach Stagg over the
rooters' scheme was the final blow to
the elaborate arrangements of the fans.
With Stagg, the faculty and the alumni
solid against any change in the present
conference relations, the minority will
now have TO think UP some other plan
if they insist upon the return OF the
University of Michigan TO its old posi-
tion in the west.
Coach Stage even refused to wax en-
thusiastic over the prospects for a
Chicago Michigan game which he once
desired. He will spend this week dop-
ing out combinations for games without
including the Ann Arbor college in his
diagrams Cornell and probably an
other eastern Institution viii figure in
the negotiations
The coach informed the rooters that
the arrangements for the Cornell game
are not yet completed Cornell has not
yet asked for the battle, a formality
that Coach Stagg considers essential.
1t is thought. however. that both
schools want the battle and the draw
ing up Of the contract is only matter
of time. Minnesota, Wisconsin and
Cornell will be the big games on Stagg' 5
list from present prospects.

NOTES
LOWELL TURNS OUT A
FINE BASKET BALL GAME

The second basketball team of the
Baptist Athletic association of Ham
mond found bunch of tartars in the
Lowell team last Saturday night The
local players were defeated by a score
of 22 to ii. They expected to play a
team of their own class, but they found
themselves outclassed all around, and
are ready to admit it. Despite this they
made a good showing.
1t is the opinion of the local players
that with very little more practice the
Lowell players may easily pit them
selves against the best in the county.
