ATLANTA, Ga, March 31.-The old
adage that March enters like lamb and
goes out like a lion is certainly lived up
to in the kind of weather that the Atlanta

very little VIVID blowing. BY the time
the. players got ready to go to tho park a
perfect young gale was blowing. which
drove gusts OF dust and made the prac-
tice uncomfortable to say the least.
Conroy's Shamrocks triumphed over
McBrde's Regulars to the tune Of 10 to
L. the former taking advantage Of the
latter's misplays, and hitting like flends
after they got men on the bases.
The winning Of the game by the Sham
rocks makes the series between the two
teams this season a tie, each team hav-
ing won four. and two resulting in ties.
Tom Hughes started on the mound for
the Regulars. with Bob Groom occupy
ing the points for the Shamrocks. They
-twirled five innings, each Of them allow
ing seven hits for five runs. Walter
johnson took Bob Groom's place, and
Dixie Walker took Tom Hughes place.

errors and some long hits producing the

 ESCAPE IN EAST

 London, JuneN 24-(Special.)- American aviator, James c. Mars, who has arrived in London after complet- Ing a tour of the world, tells a stirring story of his adventure with an aero plane among the superstitious people of the far east.
 During his seven months of travel, MT. Mars gafe over one hundred exhibi- tions of flying, and had several mar velous escapes from death at the hands of religious fanatics.
 "rhe greatest mark of favor which I received" said the aviator was in Korea. where the King sent me an ele- phant. It was an embarrassment or riches. I gave 1t to girl and told her to be good to 1t.
 But the most shrinking honor con ferred on me was the decoration of the Dada, which allows me six wives and perpetual immunity from working. It was given to me by the chief of the Moros, in the Philippines, and there was nothing throughout our tour to equal the feasting of the occasion.
 The worst persecution I suffered was in certain parts of Japan and Korea, where I was under government protec- ton continuously. I had a narrow es- cape in Nogroya from being murdered by some superstitious natives, who plotted to destroy by machine and poison me. A little slave girl heard two of the conspirators talking and gave us warning in time. As a reward we bought her out of slavery and sent her home.

 "I believe the keenest interest in the world in flying is to be found in Japan, where the government is now actively engaged in experiments for military purposes. When we arrived we found several aeroplanes in disuse because the officials did not understand how to manipulate them. After observing our flights, however, they set to work again, and when We left they were hard al it.
