Youthful Officers

in Defending Train
Lieutenant Just Out of School and
Twenty-Eght Federal Soldiers
Killed by 400 Rebels.

MEXICO CITY, April 2s.-Refusing to
surrender or leave the train on which he

sent forward messenger to demand the
surrender OF the troops and a request II
they would not surrender to abandon the
train in order that the lives of the pas
sengors be not endangered
Fresh from the School OF Aspirantes, q
military training school, the boyish officer
sent back word that he had orders to con-
tinue on that train. Little time was lost
In beginning the fight. The rebels poured
down the enbankment on either side OF
the train and almost simultaneously the
shooting was begun by them and by the
soldiers on the train.
Passengers who had been imploring the
young officer 10 yield were in a panic
| The cries OF women and children were
heard in the roar of the rifles and thC
shots from the rebels raked the sides OF
the train, many entering the coaches
occupied by passengers. But one did per.
sonal damage. That one killed Louis
Bustamsnte, young civil engineer on his
way to the capital to be married. Busta.

regard by other amendments to the tariff
law"
His recommendations were cheered.
All talk of annexation he characterized
as ''bosh," and said that the United States
has all 1t can attend to with the territory

agreement; declared that 1t would not

Jimmy Callahan, one of the only and

Jimmy claims they canont strike MS

Down in Baltimore recently the Har-
ward and Yale Alumni Associations OF
Maryland bad a ball game and what
those Yale men did to their Harvard
friends was aplenty. The score was )
TO 0, and seven of those nine runs were
made in the last two innings. 1t is to
be noted in this friendly setto that Dr.
Harvey Gushing, Yale 81. famous
second baseman in his day. made four
hits in five times up and that Judge

Nobody seems to want Mike Donlin,
once and not SO long ago the observed
of all baseball observers. and coveted
by every club in the National League
because of his ability In pulling down
flies and slamming the ball to far cor
ners and over fences. At least. nobody
seems to want him at the price John

trant outfielder. who has been out of
the game for two years. There is
disposition apparently to fight shy OF
come backs" since James j.. Jeffries
failed so ingloriously at Reno. New,
last July 4. In all probability Donlln
will stay with the Giants as a pinch
hitter, as it is extremely doubtful about
his crowding any of the regular out
fielders and forcing one of them to the
bench. Why not sell him to the Bos
ton Nationals. Tenney, Donlin and
Kling-and perhaps Cy Young might
be roped in. while Honus Wagner
probably will be ripe in three or four
more seasons. There's an aggregation
that ought to appeal To the student of

John King. who has been a member
of the Cubs for II years before he was
traded TO Boston Saturday refused to
put on the Boston uniform Sunday and
is now supposed to be on his way to
Kansas city. He caught Saturdays
game for Boston before he had a
chance to consult the Boston magnates
about the salary question. King had
a two-year contract with the Cubs
which expires this year at $500 year.
He saw President Russell of the Bos-
tons Sunday and inquired if his Cub
salary was to go on. He was told it
would not. Just what Russell offered
him is not known except that it is
said to be $4,000 less than he was get

SPORTING NOTES.

After the preliminary elimination
races the Judges have selected Tilly
XIV. Wannassee. Tilly y. the Wittels-
bach and the Sehund to participate in
further trials to determine the Ger
man competitors in the German-Amer-
lean sender class races during kiel
week.
Harry Hilman, Dartmouth's athletic
coach, has closed his athletic work for
the season at Hanover, but will return
To the Green next fall The old hurdle
champion certainly has brought the
Dartmouths back on the athletic map
again. and the Green athletes are sure
to be heard from next season.
When You come to look it over,
Uncle Sans representatives come
pretty near being the real thing when
in international contests. All the
American pugs have been practically
victorious in their ring contests.
American poloists have defeated the
Britishers, and all that now remains
is a Harvard Yale victory in the com
ing international games and a victory
in the Swedish O1ympics. If the
Americans can turn the trick in these
big events they will be placing the
Stars and Stripes just where they be
long. at the front.
If Japan has any sprinter like Min
oru Fulfil. who was timed for the loo
yard dash on grass in . % seconds at
Toxic University in 1902. he should be
sent TO the Olympics in Stockholm
next year. II was too bad that the
Japanese Splinter did not appear at the
st. Louis Olympics in 1904 TO show a
skeptical world Just what he could do.
Then there are those wonderful native
high jumpers of the Watussi tribe of
the heart of Africa, who clear $50
meters from an ant-heap takeoff, a
height of better than eight feet, a nd the
noted Kaffir long distance runners of
South Africa, who would give added
interest to an assembly of athletes of
all nations in competition for Olympic
honors.
With the international polo cup safe
" stored away at Meadow Brook for
another year a least. it is pleasure
to congratulate the members of the
American team for their skill i'm hit
ting, their daring riding off, their cley-
err clipping Of the ball in tight places
and their almost marvellous horse
manship. Victory was not easily won.
Captain Lloyd. Lieutenant Edwards
and the other members of the English
team turned out to be more deter
mined and worthy foe than the prac-
tlee games had led the critics to be-
lteve. They made a stubborn resis-
lance and well deserved the high praise
so freely expressed on all sides. They
proved themselves brilliant exponents
of the game and by their sportsman
ship and fair dealing made many
friends who will be glad to see them
back again in another effort now
promised from birmingham, to lift"
the trophy.
