CHATTANOOGA Baseball Moguls
Have Spent q Lot OF Money

Chattanooga, February 2-(Special.)-
Were the baseball moguls of Chatta-
nooga sincere when they told the South
ern league that the game would be a
financial success in this city?
Did they really believe that baseball
will pay in Chattanooga?
Wen, they certainly must, for they
put up a cool $4,000 to bring the game
here. They are business men, good bus
mess men, and men of that stripe don't
generally spend $4,000 without having
a pretty good idea what it will bring
back.
Was there ever another city in the
south to spend $4,000 within years time
to secure baseball?
Don't everybody speak at once.
Fifty thousand dollars is some money
and It will take lot of bleacher and
grsndstand tickets to get it back, but
the men who put up the coin believe
they made a good deal and there is
not one of them who would get out of the
club.
There may be few doubling Thomases
who Will doubt that $4,000 has actually
been spent Here are the figures, show
ing the money spent to put Chattanooga
back on the baseball map:

The first business of this extra session is
supposed to be to pass the revenue and
appropriation bills. and they have hardly
been touched. They will have to be passed
If the legislature remains in session all
summer else the state will have to quit
business.
Ordinarily these matters would have
been passed ere this stage of the session,
or at least well under way. But this
has been no ordinary session of the Mis-
sissippi legislature. The law never con-
templated that senator was going
to die on the eve of the assembling of
the law-making body, as happened this
time. The senatorial contest has taken
precedence over all other matters. The
members have not been able to think
about anything c even if they had de-
sired to do SO.
In the meantime a great many local and
private matters have been injected, and
these take up a deal of time.
Speaker Street served notice in the
House yesterday that no more new bills
would be permitted the end of the ses-
sion being near, and 1t is hoped that a
great batch of the old ones will be gotten
rid OF during the present week. and that
the revenue matters VIII be well adj

hub THREATENS
FLIGHT TO COAST

Nashville, February Especial with
the regularity of the song of the wren
or the information from Kansas City that
Johnny King is to return TO the fold
comes the annual spring message from
Gallatin, Tenn, TO the effect that Hub
Perdue is plumed and set to make the
fight to the coast Last season it was
some outlaw club in California: now it
is Seattle. where Hub is stated by his
home paper and partisan home fans to
have received a very fatterlng offer, so
fiattering in fact as to render his even
thinking of renewing a contract with
Nashville out of the question.
AS a matter OF fact in keeping with the
stated policy of the Nashville maenates
it is known that an advance IN salary
was not offered the eccentric Sumner
county hurler this season. 1t is even
whispered that the figure proposed was
hardly up to last years remuneration.
In any event the annual jumping threat
is in evidence and all Gallatin regrets
to note that Hub will not be in reach of
home fans this season and that the South
ern league will have again lost its great
est drawing card.
Hub has spent the winter quietly play
ing pool and shooting quail in and about
Gallatin with an occasional appearance
locally TO take in football game 1t
has been realized all along, however that
the holdout and jump-to-the- coast story
was on the way and the only particular
interest i'll the forthcoming deliverance
was as to what remote spot Hub was to
make for this time. Those best ac-
| quainted with the erratic twrler figure
that as usual he will be found at the same
old stand and the local club authorities
are not worrying to any extent over the
rumored annual night to some far distant

tented as long as it would take to make

LENGTHY DEBATES
In LEGISLATURE

Jackson. Miss. February 2.-(Special.)
Only two measures were debated in the
legislature today, the pension bill in the
senate and the Russell non-fraternity bill
in the house. The Vance pension bill car
ried $500 600 for pensions, but the commit
tee reported $4,000 cut. Mr.. Vance man
aged to have the $4,000 restored and the
bill as written passed by a good ma
jority.
The non-fraternity bill was debated at
great length, but was still pending when
adjournment was taken till tomorrow.
The debates grew very warm at times.
and the impression seemed to be that the
measure will pass the house, but meet
its waterloo in the senate. A similar
measure was killed here four years ago
after a long and acrimonious discussion.

ing the 30-day session 26 days, which Will

Il have been playing and coaching for
nearly 10 years" he declared, land dur
Ing that period I have seen practically
all the great ones. In the two men
mentioned by Mr.. Camp, Heston and
Schultz. I am free to state that they
tower far above any men l have ever
seen in tn cir positions. These men were
wonders in every department of play
When asked what specie traits they
possessed that marked them as the
greatest at their respective places he
replied that the same leading charac-
feristic was TO be found in each equally
mnd that was the instructive ability to
diagnose plays on the defensive and to
divine movements of opponents in ex-
scouting offensive plays. Those two
men" he declared, had what is com
monty known as football brains to a
remarkable degree and their native
knowledge of the game was backed by
magnificent physique which could stand
unlimited punishment. In addition they
look perfect care of themselves and had
that spirit that works in harmony with
others. without which it is impossible to
make great football players"
"Hesron expressed the cardinal note
in football as well as anybody l ever
heard" he continued. He replied once
10 an inquiry as to how he played the
game by saying that his system was to
work his search lights and jump the
dead ones. Those fellows were always to
be found where the live part OF the
game was" he concluded.

no spring practice at Ann Arbor this
season. I have sub-let that privilege

Jackson, Miss, February 2.--(Special.)-
II was confidently predicted here Monday
that the senatorial situation was going to
change before the end of the week. and it
is stated by those in position to know
that something is going to drop very
soon.
This wish may be father to the thought,
but the prediction is quite persistent, and
there is no effort in any direction to cry
it down. 1t is now four weeks since the
fight opened up here, and the candidates
as well as their friends are growing very
tired of the strain under which they have
been laboring.
AS is known, two of the candidates got
out of the way last week-Senator w. ID.
Anderson of Tupelo and Judge F. A.
Critz of West Point. The former was one
of the leaders and one of the strongest
men of the opposition to Vardaman, the
latter being the weakest. The fact that
shown in the course taken by the % OF
"a votes they had between them-not NOR,
than one or two landing in the Vardamar
camp.
The retirement of these two candidate.
leaves field of four against the former
governor, and it il believed they stat,
facts when they declare there is perfec
harmony in their camp. and that they will
be able to control every vote In their com
bination. II that be true, Vardaman Il
| defeated. If on the other hand he shout,
fall heir to about 10 of the votes tina
are now being cast for others on the fina
showdown between himself and the las
of the opposition candidates, he will b.
elected by a narrow margin.
There is talk and prediction to the eff
feet that there will be other withdrawal
during the next day or two. but 80 far q
known these are only guesses. No candl
date has authorized the statement that h
or any other candidate Is going to with
draw at any stated time. 1t is taken a
a matter OF course that they will get ou
one at a time. some time or other. and
! ts believed that time Is drawing near bu
