DENIES ALLEGED
 M'DONALD bR|bE Goodpasture Issues State ment Answering Charge WILL NOT ADJOURN
Both Houses of Tennessee Legislature Postpone Adjournment and Seem Determined To Keep Up
 Their End of Fight

Nashville, April 2S.-In reference to the charge made today that he had attempted last December to bribe J. Q. McDonald. member of the house for S15oo, to vote TOT certain measurues alleged to be charn- picned by the regular democrats, E. C. Goodpasture tonight gave out the follow ing statement:
 CT have not seen the full text of the statement as made by MT. Mcdonald as nublished in the Tennessean. but I un- derstand that he charges me with having offered him money to vote for the repeal of the election laws and the manufac- turers' bill. If such charge is made py him, I most positively deny it. 1 did not offer him money to vote for those bills or for anything else. I talked with him more than once about the organization of the legislature and tried to induce nm to support the regulars.
 "At one time he told he would do so. Later he came to me and said that he would not told him that l thought that it was best for him and for the re- publican party that he should support the regulars and that he would be taken care of when the house was organized. But repeat that I did not make any money offer to influence his vote or his course in the legislature, and MT. Mcdonald so understood at the time. This is all that I care to say about the matter at this time. If necessary l will make a more extended statement when l see the full text of his charges.
 "E. c. GOODPASTURE."
 Notwithstanding this was the last day of the regular session of the general as- semby, both houses adjourned until to- morrow morning, thus indicating the de- termination of the majority not to ad- iourn finally at this time The remainder of the fusion members of the two houses now in Nashville will, it is said, return to their homes and resist any attempt. if any be made, to arrest and return them to Nashville. The departure of the fusion members of the senate will also leave that body without a quorum. The house, be- cause of the absence of 34 representatives in Alabama, has been without quorum since April 12.
 After today member can receive per diem, as the constitution provides for per diem for 75 days only, but the majority holds there is nothing in the constitution tc prevent the holding of sessions in both houses so long as those members holding them chose to serve without pay. In the meantime through the failure to pass an appropriation bill because of the absent members in Alabama, most of the state institutions are without funds. IS the states fiscal officers have declined to honor their requstions because of lack os authority from the legislature.

Evans.
Proof that his title is not an empty
honor was shown by Sheehan's playing
in the Western amateur tournament
last year at Minneapolis, and the
trans Mississippi at Denver. In the
latter he was runner-up to Harry Legg
and in the Western he won the conso-
lation fight.
Sheehan's driving is brilliant and his
putting is uncanny. He plays for big

that will start another lurid revolution
in baseball?
Magee's threat to go into court and
contest President Lyrch's decision sUs-
pending him for the season, If carried
out, may cause more trouble thai eny-
thing since the Brotherhood CT 1890
Magee would probably win, for base
ball law Is not civil law, and magnates
shun courts.
The public's impression Ct a player
acting as Mage did IS THAI he is n
rough and a rowdy. This is not true
of Magee. Off the field Mages is mild
hammered, light-hearted and genial. On
the diamond he is a terrific worker. He
seldom rails at am umpire. but when
he does he goes the limit. He owns a
temper which at times he Is unable to
control. Usually the anger passes In
an instant. When the explosion"
| passes no one could be more sorry than
Magee. His lack of control is his
one weakness as a player.
Magee plays baseball, eats and
| dreams baseball. Until friends gave
him an automobile for leading the
league at bat last year he had no
hobby to detract his attention from The
game.
At night Magee fans over the days
work, and once, after an exciting
game which he saved by i remarkable
catch, he went over the game III his
dreams. He awoke on the pavement,
having jumped from the window to
catch the ball. Fortunately, a shed
roof broke his fall.
No one Is more sympathetic than
Magee. He is a fest aid to the IN
jured' or suffering Let IL player be
injured and Magee ia al his side
quickly. With strangers he is as quick
to rush to the rescue.
