 AND LIVE GOSSIP FROM EVERYWHERE
THE NEW YORK KHIGHLANDERS
 WILL PLAY HERE THURSDAY

For the first time in several years a fuil-fedged New York American league team is to show local fans its strength. and all that recommends it to being a worthy aspirant for the championship Of the league and bidder for laure1s in the worlds championship. It will be a regular team which will tour the south and meet the teams of various cities. No yannigans or colts will be in the club, as 1t will line up against the sturdy teams of the Southern league. The re- doubtable Hal chase, conceded by all to be the greatest first baseman that ever cavorted around first base, will be the leader of the team, and will. as he Is expected to do all season, play at his position at first. Chase Is the manager of tho club this year. and under him his men believe they can land the cham pionship. In the season just closed the team made a wonderful showing, finish ing second, and there are those who are now looking to the club to be as good as that this year when the last game is played to land the flag
 Charley Hemphill, who has been reg ular on the team for several years. will play his old position in right Harry wolter will garden in left field, while the speedy Bert Daniels will be found in center. Jack Knight, who last year led his club in hitting, will play at second this year having been moved from short. The latter position has not yet been decided upon. Two or three men are striving for the job, but southerners

DEFEAT |SBLOW
 FOR EDUCATION No One Expected Senate to Turn Down the Local
 Taxation Bill

Montgomery March 24.-(Special)-The state educational department is consider ably disappointed over the defeat of the school county taxation bill in the senate The measure was defeated by one vote, only lacking that to secure the necessary number as provided under law for an amendment to the constitution.
 When the bill passed the house there was scarcely any opposition to the meas ure. about nine-tenths of the members voting for the bill. It was then antici- pated that the bill would have plain sail ing in the senate, or at least that the bill would meet with no serious opposition. The officials of the education depart ment were elated over the prospect of sc curing taxation for the maintenance and support of the public schools of the state. The department looked upon the bill as one of the most important measures that bad been introduced during the present session Superintendent Willingham and other prominent educators throughout the state had labored hard for the passage of the bill, and they regarded the success of the measure in the house as indicative of it's reception in the senate
 The first regular night session of the senate seemed to the friends of the meas ure an opportune time to call up the reso- lution providing for the constitutional amendment. The result was quickly shown. Tie bill lacked one of securing the necessary two-thirds vote, and the measure was defeated. It was all quickly done-so quickly that many of the mem bers expressed surprise when it was over. The measure however, was defeated, and it is doubtful if any member of the sen ate who voted against the bill will move to have the question reconsidered.
 Superintendent Willingham expressed great surprise over the defeat of the bill, and his surprise was mingled with express sions Of sincere regret. He had worked diligently for the passage of the bill, and he thought when the measure passed the house that there was little to fear in re- gard to the passage of the measure through the senate.
 Practically all the leading educators or tho state had given their approval and support to the bill. Many of them had
 .s,.sl Montgomery for the purpose of talking to members of the legislature ill 1 the interest of the measure. They had represented that local taxation for schools was one of the most important steps the state could take for the advancement or education, and like expressions were heard from many of the county boards of education.
 All teachers and educational workers
 who were in tine city when the measure met its defeat in the senate expressed great disappointment. Scarcely any or | them had anticipated that the resolution providing an amendment to. the constitu- | tion would fail of passage in the upper house, and the announcement that their pet measure had been defeated was re- ceived both with surprise and regret

Rochester Gets It's Sweet Revenge

will see two of the men In the tryours. Roy Hartzel, who was secured from the St. Louis club in exchange for Jimmy Austin and Frank LaPorte. will be one of the contenders and Otis Johnson, the home-run hitted. will be the other. Each will get a fair trial for the job. and the fans of the south will have the chance to judge who will be entitled to the job.
 But two recruits will be found in the lineup. Gene Elliott, who was with the McKeesport club of the O. P league, has developed into the find of the year. and has already by his great work this season won a berth at third. His speed and general all round good ball playing will appeal to the fans. Bob Williams, who last year caught with Canton, will be worked behind the bat occasionally He is good one and will make even the veterans Sweeney and Blair hustle all the time.
 The treat for the southerners will be the appearance of the old Cracker Bat tery, Russell Ford and Ed Sweeney. But the other stars of the battery de- partment will get their turns. too Harry Ables, the old Baron, will be along
 Here is the lineup as the fans will see it.
 Elliott. third base; Hemphill, right field Chase, first base; Wolter, right field Knight second base: Daniels. cen ter field! Hartzell and Johnson, short stops; Williams, Sweeney and Blair, catchers; Ford. Fisher, Vaughn, Abes, Caldwell and Quinn, pitchers.
