SPORTING NEWS AND LIVE GOSSIP FROM EVERYWHERE
SOUTHERN FOOTBALL TEAMS RESTING ON THE LAURELS
 OF SATURDAYS SCRIMMAGES

Southern football teams are resting after their strenuous efforts of Satur- day.
 Some are rejoicing while others are suffering a keen disappointment In Nashville the Commodores, returning from Ann Arsor were given a boisterous re- ception, practically every student of Van derbilt and many of the citizens of staid Nashville meeting the train on which the football stars were riding.
 Nashville is delighted for two reasons over the practical tie which the Commo- dores played against the "Mchiganders. The first reason is in the fact that the heavy westerners were met half way and frightened to death. The second reason is due to the fact that since the showing of the Vanderbilt crew against the Michi- gan aggregation, no system of compara- tive scores can deny the Commodores the southern championship again Wander tilt has a slim chance of going down be- fore the rushes of Mississippi, and it is a practical certainty that if it receives a defeat this season il will result exclu- sively from 2 huke.
 Auburn disappointed it's vast following in Birmingham and throughout the south when it won only a negative vic- tory from the Agricultural and Mechan- ical college of Mississippi Saturday. Every one thought that the Orange and Blue would sweep the visiting Aggies off their feet whereas. as a matter of fact, the Auburnites were lucky to win.
 Tom Bragg. the graduate manager of the Auburn team, stated Saturday night that Auburn was developing slowly this season, and expresses the belief that no

FRANK MORROW, JR.,
 GOES TO LITTLE ROCK

Frank A. Morrow, Jr., who has been ir the service of the Frisco lines here for some time as city passenger agent has resigned to accept position as depot agent for the Rock Island railroad at Little Rock. He left last night to take up the new work. MT. Morrow has been employed as a depot ticket agent and later with the Frisco in this city for many years, and is one of the best known young railroad men in this district
 AS a token of the esteem of other pas senger men here, MT. Morrow was yester- day presented with handsome travelling bag as a remembrance from the city pas senger representatives.
 Those donating the hand bag expressed their deep regret that MT. Morrow was leaving Birmingham.

other brief session of about 45 minutes. Was that a heavy docket? Of course, I realize that the cases docketed for that day may have fallen short of their an- ticipated length but I do not claim any thing more than the incident indicates on its face.
 If people who know more about con ditons than I do agree that we need more criminal judges than we have then say get them and you will save the coun- ty money, instead of imposing a larger financial burden. The sheriff feeds these prisoners who are detained so long, and he does it at the county's expense. That means that If he Is held two weeks for a trial 1t is at a cost of, say s4.50 to the state for food. His trial may not take more than 15 minutes. Why not let the state spend that money on an additional judge to try these cases quickly, and thereby save the prisoners constitutional right to speedy trial from invasion.
 I do not wish to antagonize anyone by this communication, but rather to appeal to them for their cooperation to improve conditions of grave injustice. Very truly.

Great Chance for snutherners

The greatest mistakes that managers Of the Southern league make Is in permit ting major leaguers to grab the stars which are playing all around us. Fucker of Georgia, never starred in the South ern, but he is one of the best sdewneel- CTS in the game. Dixie Walker played around Birmingham for several years as an amateur, was never good enough for the Barons. and landed berth with Washington.

team in the Southern Intercollegiate Ath- letie association will be able to win from Donahues men. With this opinion the, writer agrees. Georgia will give Auburn a stiff fight, it is supposed. but the team which defeated Mercer by only to . has little change of winning from the Orange and Blue.
 Alabama justly celebrated following it's scrappy game against Georgia Tech. The Crimson-White following, from all ac- counts, played an excellent game against It's heavier opponents. From the story of Dick Jemison of the Atlanta Constitu- tion, Alabama was generally on the de- fensive, but on the defensive, played mag hihcently. On one occasion Alabama got within three yards of the Tech goal, but was unable to shove the ball across. Had Alabama a bunter as good Major of Auburn, the Crimson-White aggregation would make itself felt in Dixie this sea- son. The Constitution was profuse In it's complimentary remarks concerning liar grove Vandergraaf, the red headed end of Alabama, and it Is a certainty that he will receive mention as worthy timber for the All-southern aggregation this year

Big league managers often make mis- takes Merkle Is not the only "bonehead' in the big show.
 Marty O'Toole, as is known, recently was sold to Pittsburg for $22500. This was the biggest price ever paid for a ball player
 But Marty O'Toole has twice before fig ured in the major leagues. Cincinnati once had his John Hancock attached to a contract. He was given a trial and found wanting The Boston Americans then secured his services, but he did not look very good to the manager of that organ ization.
 And yet last season, Pittsburg paid $22,- 500 to St. Paul for his release.

Southern Leaguers' Mistakes


 Billy Smith, while managing the At lanta club, kept Lou Castro in preference to Neal Ball. Montgomery landed Ball and he Is now playing good baseball in the majors. Castro has been retired from active service.
 Billy Smith, later, turned Maxwell over tc New Orleans for Bartley. Bartley went poorly and was soon disposed of. Manager Frank used Maxwell to advan- tage, and then sold him to Birmingham for s160o. Last season, Birmingham sold him to New York for $4000. In 1907 Birmingham had two first base men, Henry Meek and Pete Lister. Meek was retined by Manager Vaughn and Lister turned over to Nashville He went to the big show and is now playing fine ball for Chattanooga. Meek has dropped into a bush" league

Alexander on the Market


 One of the greatest pitchers in the busi- ness is Alexander of the Phillies. He won such a large number of games for that organization last season that Oooins crowd was in the running almost to the death.
 Syracuse owned Alexander in 191o To- wards the end of that season, Syracuse put Alexander on the market. He was not sold, however. no club in either of the majors believing him worth inore than the draft price of $750.
 Finally. Detroit of the American league. and Philadelphia of the National league, put in drafts for him. On the cut, Phil adelphia won. It is interesting to re- member that had Detroit landed Alex ander, the Athletics would probably new CT have overhauled the Tigers In the American league race.

NORTH DAKOTA :

Says Representative of Zenith
City Commercial Club

For twenty-seven years l have
done business in North Dakota and
have often said that l never heard of
state that could or would recover
from hardships or set-Oacks as quick
ly as good old North Dakota" was the
encouragement given to Lake Region
farmers and business men by F. X.
Gravel, who represented the Duluth
Commercial club at the big get-ac-
quainted party at the Great Northern
Tuesday night. Mr.. Gravel continu-
ed:
"Citizens of North Dakota, your de-
velopment has only begun. You have
splendid railroad system strongly
entrenched in your city, with the far
mers' line north of you. By the way,
an old Devils Lake citizen who was
always a strong factor in building and
operating this north line, Mr.. Kelly,
is still with you and is still boosting.
In a way you really nave four lines
of railway coming to and going from
your city, north, south, east and west.
Figures show that we in the United
States have the greatest railroads
in the world, and you have one of the
greatest systems anchored with you
here in Devils Lake. Such things
help develop and make large cities.
You are already a city ranking third
or fourth in your state

ent, with your great, large and up to-
date stores, representing all lines Of
business and all kinds of merchandise

but still l am not surprised, for the
hustlers of your city can accomplish
things. You have done so and you
will keep on with the good work of
boosting and advancing your won
derful resources of the farm and all
it's products, such as dairying, cattle,
horse, hog and sheep raising, not for
getting the poultry products. With
these all added to your wonderful
crop resources there can be no going
back, but on the contrary all going
ahead for you, good, tried and true
North Dakota boosters and hustlers.
You gentlemen of Devils Lake and
citizens of North Dakota are deserv-
ing of success. You do things. You
see what you want and you go after it,
and best of all, you usually get what
you go after. You have the right
stuff in your citizenship"

others were new members of the club,
but all had paid for their ticket to the

and to hear Mr.. Hills remarks.
The lack of room at the banquet ta-
bles added to the delay in opening
the dining room occasioned consider
able disappointment in the ranks of
the cleft OUTS" who came to the feast
with keen appetites and were forced
to go home with nothing in their little
stomachs and only the picture of their
next door neighbor seated at the ta-
BILE devouring great gobs of menu to
comfort them in their hour Of aff1ic-
ton.
The disappointing of those who
were so unfortunate as to be frost
bitten at an affair planned to give
warmth to the community was the
only feature that marred an other
wise brilliant affair.
