CARD PLAYING IN
U. S. JURY ROOM
THREE DECKS WERE SENT UP
IN JURY IN REYNoLD's CASE,
BUT BAILIFF RALkED AT SUCH
ocEDuRE--NoT CONSIDER.
ED IN LINE WITH DUTY.

There isn't pleasanter man to be
found than Bailiff Pat Kennedy of the
United States court, but he claims
that business Is business" In fol-
lowing out that policy yesterday aft
ernoon he shattered the hopes OF sew
eral members of the Reynolds jury to
hold a little game of pinochle, while
the deadlock cloud lowered over the
jury room.
Three decks of cards were brought
up to the door of the jury room but
that was as far as they got. In order
to hand deck of cards, or anything
else into that jury room, it would be
necessary to walk over the carcass of
Bailiff Kennedy, unless there was an
order from the court.
1t wasn't so very long after this that
an agreement was reached.

MALONE DEFEATS
 HICKMAN AT POOL

The spacious Subway billiard parlor was again crowded Saturday night by an appreciative audience to witness the final galae of the tournament between ex- Champion Malone and Lon Hickman The. latter was held back for the final game. but went the same way as the others, only by a more crushing defeat. Hickman could pocket only 29 points, while Malone rolled in 100. Hickman got IA on the second frame, tieag Malone, who got IA on the first frame, both play CTS having scratched. The audience at this early stage began to warm up to the performance and looked tor a close match, hoping that the local player would be able to take the veterans scalp, but Malone was in the pink of condition and pocketed the 15 balls with ease time after time, with an easy stroke, without any pretense of fancy strides lie won the game by the above score in the remark ably short time of 50 minutes
 Malone takes advantage of the rules If his opponent commits foul in any way The roomkeepers claim that he is right as 1t has a tendency to keer the players off the table and have more respect foi the game.
 Malone plays at Hopkins billiard par Tor, Bessemer, Monday and Tuesday.

FOOTBALL GAMES
 ARE KNOCKED OUT

Cbicago. December 4.-Members of the Western Intercollegiate Conference Attn letio association yesterday unanimously adopted resolutions forbidding confer ence teams playing games with insti- tutions outside of the association. This is the most drastic action taken since 1906 and bars the University of Mich igan.
 Unless Michigan comes back into the conference the resolutions end for ever its hopes of scheduling athletic contests with conference colleges. The following is the resolution. with others, also adopted unanimously:
 ''The members of the conference agree not to hold athletic relations with universities or colleges that have been members of the conference and have withdrawn. or shall hereafter withdraw.
 That this conference will maintain athletic relations in football and base ball with universities and colleges in the middle west only, except as 10 existing contracts.
 That each member of this confer ence shall schedule not fewer than four football games with other members of the conference and shall endeavor as far as possible to rotate it's games from year to year so as To play all members of the conference" A move to adopt rugby football was instituted when Professor Ehler of Wisconsin introduced a resolution which was adopted for the appointment of a committee to introduce rugby and report back to the committee.
 Professor Johnson of Indiana intro duced a resolution to prevent gam bling at athletic contests,
 A resolution was adopted giving the conferences Interpretation of the seven game rule as follows;
 Agreed that interpreting the seven game rule that scrimmages or prac- tices with teams of other institutions In addition to the seven regular games is not permissable.'
 Professor Goodenall was chosen chairman Of the conference and Profes- sor Ehler of Wisconsin selected sec retary. The next intercollegiate field and track meet will be held at Min neapolls on June 8, 1911.

MILLSAPS TAKES
 UP ATHLETICS

Jackson. Miss, December t-(Special.)- )- Following action taken by t.e Methodist church. which controls affairs at Milsaps college. decision has been reached to establish athletics of almost every na- ture at the college.
 ''For the general welfare 7f the college and student body" as one member of the faculty put it. The college, which is one of the largest in the state, has always barred sports, but the reform rules" in football, 1t is said, caused tie ministers to lift the lid. The college VII apply for membership to the Southern 1ntercol-, legiate Athletic association.
 Figuring that Vanderbilt will need a new rival in athletics after this year for Thanksgiving Day, since Sewanee has abandoned the law and medical school which may, 1t is pointed out eurtail the aierial and therefore lower the stan daro of Sewanee teams, alumni of both the University of Mississippi and Uni versity of Arkansas have alreidy started negotiations which swould end in one or the other getting the annual turkey day audience at Dudley Field.
 Although Coaches Bezdek and Stauffer, respectively of Arkansas and Mississippi. are silent, alumni here say that with the limited material at Sewanee that even the most optimistic Sewanee enthusiasts cannot hope to anticipate squad that will interest Vanderbilt. They say the plucky little middle Tennessee college was lucky to place a formidable eleven in the field this year and were also fortu- nate in starting and finishing with prac tically the same eleven with no reserve force to call on in case of accident
 If the Thanksgiving Day game falls, Memphis alumni are hot after Wander. bilt coming here for meetinss with Ar kansas and Mississippi.

This Is as If Should Be

, The dinner pail is not popular in France. says F. Berkeley Smith, in Sue cess Magazine. Even the poorest laborer goes at midday to his favorite restau- rant, which may sell wood and coal along one of, it's walls, and possess q modest zinc bar and three rough tables laid with coarse clean cloths opposite the wood and coal, but here he finds his place among his comrades at table in chair, before a clean plate, a clean napkin, knife fork and glass, pure wine and wholesome food cooked to hiss liking for few sous. He Is in no hurry, either, this fellow with his brawny arms and his baggy corduroy trousers There Is plenty of time to joke with his comrades; often the crowded little place is in an uproar of good humor. Not until he has leisurely finished his coffee and cognac, his cig- aret and his last word does he go back to his work
