Basket Ball at Michigan.

DETROIT, Mich, March .9.-One OF
the principal themes of discussion among
the undergraduates at the University OF
Michigan is the possibility of the institu-
ton being represented by a varsity bas-
ket ball team next season. Despite the
fact that Director Baird of the Wolverine
University has announced that he intends
to resign in June. it appears that he will
be asked for his opinion on the question
of retaining basket ball by the athletic
board Since the members of this board
have great confidence In the Judgment of
Baird it is likely that his answer will give
great weight. At the present time. how
ever, Baird will not make any statement

especially fast on the bases and is also
a hard man to throw out if the infielder
loses any time in getting the ball TO
first. Capt Hill expects Bone to cause
the high school pitchers this season no
little worry. as his work on the bases
this season has been of high standard.
Dolly Gray. who will lead the Ma
chnists on the base ball diamond this
spring, announced recently that Spencer,
the star center fielder of last years nine.
would in all probability be barred from
this seasons series unless he showed
marked Improvement in his studies. He Is
about the best outfielder Tech has on
hand at present and is the only veteran
outfielder OF last years championship nine.
and IL he is ruled out his loss will be
severely felt. Lynch, the emergency hit
ter of the team, will undoubtedly fill
from participating in the approaching
high school.
Another veteran of last season returned
to the game for Western High in Robson
who played second base last season. He
Is slated for the outtield this season at
his own request and seems to be the man
for the position judging from his playing
in the game against Georgetown Props
In this contest Robson connected for
three safe drives and gives promise of
being good man with the bat for the
boys across the creek this year.
Morris and Offutt are alternating be-
hind the bat for the Machinists and are
handling the ball in great shape Morris
has II slightly on Offutt, however in get
ting the ball off quicker to second base

catcher for this season King. who is
creating quite sensation with his bril-
liant fielding, is also lining them out in
great style and appears to be the find of
the season among the novice high school
infielders.
4 couple of mile runners who will I'M
doubtedly prove difficult men to defeat at
this distance are Zeh and Bryant of the
Central High School squad. Both Of these
boys are well known as distance runners
and are booked to uphold Centrars end
In the long distance running this season.
Central intends entering several of the
outdoor competitions in and out of town
during the next few months and will be
in the best possible condition when the
Spring meet competitions come around.
AS far as can be seen now Kelly who
played shortstop on Techs nine last sea-
son, is the most likely candidate for the
position at third which was left open
through the graduation of Benson. Kelly
Is a clever fielder and is reported to be
batting better this season than he did for

Mrs Collins is alleged to have con-

Frisbie, a friend OF Dir. Collins who
was summoned Immediately after the
shooting. When DR.. Frisbie reached
the scene DR. Collins was dead. Mrs.
Collins was arrested and taken to the

1t appears that Mrs. Collins has for
some time been insanely Jealous Of her
husband, but so far as any of their in

foundation for her suspicious.
Mrs. Collins was formerly Mrs.
Van Wrinkle, and is of prominent
Portland family. DR., and Mrs. Collins
had just moved into the home of Major

the summer.

Four Times Within Few Minutes
Mrs. Singleton Killed Outright
Singleton and Little Son Rendered
Unconscious and Neighbor Injured.

American Forks, Utah. July 24--
Within few minutes last night four
bolts of lightning struck the residence
of John III. Singleton, killing his wife,
dering himself and his son uncon-
scious, and knocking down his brother
and neighbor who came to their as
sistance. While Singleton and r. H.
Farrell, his neighbor, are still In a ser
ious condition, it is believed that they
will recover. Dell Singleton. the
brother, and the 4-year-old boy were
severely shocked but are out Of dan
ger.
Singleton's son was Sitting on the
front porch when the first bolt struck
the house. He gave scream and Sim
gleton rushed out, finding him lying on
the porch unconscious. He carried
him into the house and placed him In
|. a tub Of water to revive him. While
he was bathing the boy the second bolt
struck the house, and Singleton was
hurled across the room. The boy re
ceived the second shock, when his
father did. and was again prostrated
When the second bolt struck the
house was enveloped In blue flame,
which attracted the attention Of neigh

killing her instantly. She was thrown
back into the room. Her clothes We're
torn from her body and her flesh was
burned about her face neck and chest.
Singleton recovered sufficiently to
stagger to the front room. He saw his
wife lying on the floor and ran out
into the street to call for help. He
met his brother Dell and Farrell at the
front gate. Everything was in dark
ness, and Dell Singleton carried a ian
tern. Before they reached the front
porch the fourth bolt struck the house.
Dell Singleton was ahead and was
knocked down and the lantern hurled
several feet and demolished. Farrell,
who was following close behind him.
was knocked unconscious on the side
walk. John H. Singleton escaped the
fourth bolt with a slight shock and
rushed to the neighbors for help.
Several persons came and Mrs. Sin
gleton was carried out of the house
to a neighbours place. The boy was
also removed and Farrell was assisted
to his home. He was still unconscious
this morning. Singleton became pros
trated over the death of his wife and
physician was called to attend him.
The house was shaken to its founda-
tions by the bolts of lightning. Sew
