ADJUSTMENTS
Grnce George

Grace George will be seen in a new
comedy of modern life called "A Wom-
ans Way" at the Jefferson theatre to-
night. The play is from the pen of
Thompson Buchanan, a young New
York newspaper man, and might be
best described as a comedy of common
sense. The character played by Miss
George (Marion Stanton) is a young,
bright, charming American wife who
discovers that her husband has fallen
in love with rich southern widow
and, by her common sense and humor-
Gus treatment of the unpleasant situa-
ton completely wins back his love and
easily defeats the schemes of the other
woman.

GENERAL ROSSER
DIES In VIRGINIA

Charlottesville, Va, March 30. Gen.
Thomas Lafayette Rosser, aged 70 years,
died tonight of general debility. He was
a member of the class at West Point
when ordered into the field by Lincoln,
but he resigned and entered the Confed-
crate service at Montgomery as first
lieutenant. When the surrender came he
refused to capitulate and, cutting his
way through the Union lines, took his
shattered remnants of his command to
Lynchburg and there disbanded them.
When the war with Spain was de-
clared he was a brigadier-general of vol
unteers and commanded a brigade COM
posed of Minnesota, Ohio and Pennsyl-
vania regiments. He was serving his
second term as postmaster of Charlottes-
vile. A widow and three children sur
vive him.

WHITE SOX WILL GO
TO TEXAS TO TRAIN

Fort Worth, Tex. March 29.-The Chi
cago American league team, through its
representative, Ted Sullivan. is about to
close a deal with the Mineral Wells Com
mercial club for grounds for spring train
ing for the spring of 1911. Sullivan left
the Chicago club at Redlands, Cal.
coming direct to Mineral Wells. and will
in all probability sign a contract for
training grounds for period of three
seasons.
The long travel to California this spring
was not profitable to the Chicago club
it is declared and resulted in placing the
majority of the players out of condition.
For this reason it is stated a change to
the Texas climate will be made next
season.

STANDARD OIL FIRE
LOSS VERY HEAVY

Knoxville, Tenn, March 29.-The entire
local plant of the Standard Oil company,
with the exception of one S0,00-gallon
oil tank, was destroyed tonight by fire
OF alleged incendiary origin. The incen-
diary set fire to the barrel house, which
burned like finder, and quickly spread
from there to seven tanks situated in
different sections of the company's yards.
Four 40oO-gallon and three 12,0O0-gallon
tanks were destroyed. A wood fibre plant
located nearby was consumed, as were
four or five little cottages across Ken
lucky street from the burning plant.
The Standard Oil companys loss is
$3.50, 600, with the insurance unknown. The
Southern railway lost a number of freight
cars, and the Knoxville Railway and
Light company, whose supply yard Is
nearby, lost heavily.
The total loss will be close to 100000.
The fire was one of the most spectac-
ular witnessed in the history of the city,
and its reflection could be seen for miles.

McTigue,s Grent Work

While Bauer. Kirsch and Young all
showed superb form, McTigue was de-
cidedly the star among the men who ilg-
ured az sharpshooters. The youngster
showed fine control and he struck out five
men. He was cool and deliberate in all
plays and in eight innings pitched the Wis
itcrs landed safely only twice. He had
every situation well in hand, and when
ever he got into a position which was
close In the least he always nosed out
largely through his own excellent work.
McTigue will undoubtedly prove one of
the stars of the league this season.
Both teams had several opportunities
to score, but in each instance the pitch
ers frightened up, and there was nothing
doing. In the fifth inning Stovall of the
Cleveland team led off with a safe hit to
center field and stole second, but the
succeeding players were easy outs. In the
tenth Spencer led off with safe one,
but when Stovall flew out to first the
only double play of the game was
marked down. and Spencer went out. In
the eleventh, with two down, Cooney hit
a two-bagger. hit would have meant
run anc would have decided the game,
but Young failed to deliver.

In the first inning the Barons got two

with a short single to center field. Mat
tiers were promising at this stage, but
Gygi went out at second on McGi-
ways grounder to short. Moley was
caught mapping off third and went out.
IN the seventh inning, after McGilvray
was sent back to the bench by the Cleve-
landers, Newton and Mcbride hit safely
In succession, but neither was able to
reach home. In the tenth the Barons
got two men on base. After two were

with a safe hit, but Boyle flew out to left
field and the side was retired

Is the summary of yesterdays game.
In virtually perfect game and one
which was characterized throughout by
brilliant fielding. the Barons played the
Cleveland Yannigans to standstill. While
Molesworth's men had the better end of

Clevelanders made up the difference by
fielding that was phenomenal in instances.
and when it came to run-getting neither
side had any appreciable advantage.
The game was a beauty and there is no
way of getting around that confession.
The Clevelanders played remarkable
game of ball and so did the Barons While
two errors are chalked up against the
slagville players neither of the hobbies
were of a serious nature and they might
well be overlooked.
Bauer for Birmingham and Kirsh for
Cleveland pitched the first five innings OF
the elongated affair. but it was a see-saw
mix-up and neither pitcher showed any
more class than the other.
And then came one of the features of
the game. In the fifth inning Cy Young,
the oldest pitcher in balloon land he's
AZ years old at that), went in the box
for the Yannigans, while McTigue, per-
haps one of the youngest in the business,
the boy being 20 years old, assumed
charge of the rifle pit for the Barons.
The contrast was the greatest imaginable,
but neither one had any advantage over
the other, "Old Man Cy" and the young
Nashville amateur both proving them
selves masters of the game. peculiar
regarding these two twirlers
was the fact that McTigue was the first
man to face Young after the veteran went
into the box The youthful Baron was
not in the least embarrassed or non
plused. He worked Cy for free pass to
first
The Barons outhit the Cleveland play
ers. The best the visitors could do was to
tear off two bingles off of Bauer's de-
livery, and McTigue yielded only. two safe
ones in the eight innings during which he
performed. Kirsch gave up three hits,
while Young was touched up for total
OF six safe ones.
