Madame Melba, who speaks with au-

that this country is the singers great

We celebrate tomorrow a holiday as
truly American as the Fourth of July
and considerably older. Thanksgiving
is a cumulative holiday-proclaimed
first as a public expression of gratitude
for deliverance from tyranny-it en-
braces each year all causes for civic
and individual graduation. Its orig
inal purpose has long since been lost
sight of, but the spirit of that first
Thanksgiving has or should have en-
dured. 1t has been easy to preserve
the spirit of the holiday, or rather it
has preserved itself, as 1t is automatic.
Where cheerful people gather N en-
JOY themselves the spirit of the day is
fostered. May it be present in an over
whelming majority of homes tomorrow!

ANNISTON CRIPPLED
 FOR GAME TODAY

Anniston, October 29.-(SpeciaL)- Tap Klein. captain of the Alabama Presbyterian college football eleven. has been put out of the game for quite a while on account of broken nose received in a scrimmage during a prac- tice game on the. athletic field this week and the Predestinarians have been further crippled by the loss of Right Halfback Archibald. one of the ing with severe carbuncle on his left arm.
 These facts give somewhat of a gloomy aspect to the prospect which the Predestina rians face for their game with the Blountsville Agricultural college in this city tomorrow. but there Is nothing of the piker spirit in the makeup of the Anniston eleven. and under the backing of Coach Hannon they have been hard at work this week in the effort to overcome the handi- caps.
 Sankey, who played a star game last year, but who was not able to make the faster varsity this season, has stepped into the shoes of Captain Klein at quarter and is giving very credit able exhibition. Baker, comparativel new man, who has shown remarkable form in open work. will take the place of Archibald Karl Wilson will be shifted to half from. fullback and AL len will play the other halt with Baker at fullback. There will be no changes in the line.

LYNCH THINKS FOGEL
 WILL CARRY HIS POINT

New York October B.-Thomas J. Lynch, president of the National league, today made his first statement regarding the trouble between Philadelphia and Cincinnati National league clubs. Lynch said he supposed the dispute should be put up to him and he would decide it fairly and squarely on its merits. Con- tinuing, Lynch said:
 All know of the controversy is what I have learned from the newspapers AS I understand the case. Manager Dooin of Philadelphia entered into an agree ment with Manager Griffith of Cincinnati by which Pitchers McQuillen and Moren, Third Baseman Grant and Outfielder Bates were traded to Cincinnati for Pitchers Beebe and Rowan, Third Base- man Lobert and Outfielder Paskert Hor- ace Fogel, president of the Philadelphia club, objects to the deal, saying Dooin had no authority to make 1t.
 While I do not want to prejudice the case, 1 am inclined to think that Herr mann, who knows thoroughly every rule and regulation in baseball, must have something to back up his assertion that the deal was perfectly legal in baseball sense, or he would not he so insistent in his claims to the Philadelphia play their releases yet preferring to wait un- til I learn all the facts in the dispute sa that it can be settled equitably"

HAS RUSSELL FORD SIGNED WITH FLETCHER?

New York. October 2s.-Russell Ford, the Highlanders' star pitcher, has con frmed statement by D. A. Fletcher, promoter of a proposed new major base ball league, that he has signed with that concern for next season.
 Fletcher made the positive statement in Cincinnati last week that he has signed Ford to play with any club to which he might be assigned; the salary. according to Fletcher. being 5000 for one year, the money to be placed to Ford's credit in bank on February 10.
 When Ford was asked today whether he had signed with Fletcher or not, he nodded his head.
 Yes; I've signed with him." said Ford Hes offered me more money than I'm getting here, and that's what I'm after Of course. he'll have to show me the color of the full amount when the time comes, and if he cannot I'll be through with him." m
 If Ford has signed with Fletcher 1t is considered possible that Sweeney has gone with him, but whether other High flanders have been tempted to desert Far rell is not known.

FOOTBALL WAS NOT
 CAUSE OF DEATH

Ithaca, N. T.. October 2s.-That Lauren B. Payne of Duluth. the freshman who died at the Cornell infirmary last night, did not die from injuries received in foot ball practice was made known tonight after an autopsy upon the body by pr. Charles A. Bentz, the Buffalo pathologist.
 The findings confirmed the opinion of the football coaches and others connect ed with the game, and removes all doubts as to the playing of the balance of the scheduled year. The findings are con- tained in telegram sent tonight by President J. G. Schurman to Franklin Payne, the boys father, in which Presi- dent Schurman points out that pr. Bentz found as the result of post mortem that young Payne died of unavoidable acute dilaton of the heart, associated with arterial disease and gastro-entro colitis. There was evidence of rup- ture, hernia or anything else due to football injury. The gastro-entro colitis was the most important cause of. the di- 1ation'

WASHINGTON AND LEE
 READY FOR V. P. I

Washington and Lee University, Lex ington, Va, October 2S.-Monday, Tues day and Wednesday the team continued practice as usual preparing for the " P I. game on Saturday. There has been noticeable improvement inethe squad over the week before. All the weak over and as far as possible the eff ficiency of the team has been strength ened. By Saturday all the old men who were out in the Davidson game will be back. The disastrous defeat by Georgetown has served to put new en- ergy in them as was demonstrated by the game Saturday last when Davidson was outplayed. although when the game opened 1t looked gloomy for the Wash ington and Lee team.
 The game with V. P. I. ought to bring a great many admirers of the national game out at Roanoke. All the student body is looking forward to the game with a great deal of pleasure and 1t Is expected that 500 students will go from Lexington to Roanoke to the game. In recent years this game has been looked upon as one of the great games in the state. A large number of Washington and Lee fans are ex- pected to go from Lynchburg to Roa- noke to swell the attendance.
 Waddill is rapidly gaining his for mer strength and stamina. Although he played a splendid game on Saturday against Davidson he was not feeling as well as he ought to have been. By Saturday he ought to be able to dem onstrate his prowess as giant of the gridiron. His bunting has been con sistent and accurate and a noticeable characteristic in this work has been the constant bunting for distance. In this last particular he is rapidly de- veloping into one of the best that the blue and white has had for years.s
 Miller has been doing splendid work steadily in his position at tackle. His work in opening up holes In the op- ponents line has been especially mo- ticeable in the fact that he makes long gaps When he carries the ball he has always made long gains. In the Davfd- son game his work was phenomenal in the fact that he never lost ground when he handled the ball. His usual weight of 245 has in no way handi- capped him for speed. He is consid- cred one of the fastest tackles that has donned the white and blue in years

HIGH SCHOOL TEAM WILL
 TACKLE LADS OF TUSCALOOSA

Though they are going up against the strongest aggregation they have yet faced this season, Coach Messer's grid iron warriors expect a victory in today's s game against Tuscaloosa high school which will be played at West End park. beginning at 2:30 clock.
 Judging from the number of tickets that have been sold and from the unusual interest which has been manifested in the success of the high school team. this afternoons contest will probably be literally patronized by the general pub lie, as well as the student body ana alumni of the high school. The weather will be ideal for football and since the two teams engaged are in the finest physical condition possible, very pretty game is expected.

SPARKS PROPERTY
 OF CHATTANOOGA

Chattanooga, October 2s.-Pitcher Frank Sparks is still the property of the Chat tanooga club reports from Montgom- cry to the contrary notwithstanding. He was on the local clubs reserve list and would have to be released before becom- ing the property of the Climber manage ment.
 Sparks was signed last summer, with reserve clause as were all the other players. No non-reserve contract Is per mitted in organized baseball. At the same time he was given verbal promise by Manager Dobbs that he could get his release at the end of the season if he wanted it.
 This verbal agreement was ratified by President Andrews and 1t is understood that Sparks can get his release from the local club if he wants 1t.
