Durham, y. C. October l2.-Onct
more the basketball season is near a
hand, and Trinity will put out a team
this wear that will equal, even II not
better. tho wonderful machine of last
year. with the exception of j. f
Brinn right forward. and D. j. kiker
centre, all OF the members OF last year 5
team returned and are back on the
moor. making themselves ready for an
other successful season,
Besides the old players that are out
again for place on the quintet, sew
erai new men are in the squad that bid
fair to make valuable additions to the
team. Gymnasium Director Card says
the material among the freshman class
this year is the most promising tha'
he has ever examined, and no doubt
of these and the members OF the team,
last year for berth In the organiza-
tion. There is an unusually large num-
Der of tall men in the class that Direc-
tor Card thinks will develop into play
eral finds among those who have never
played tho game before.
Foremost among the new men is
Frank Crowell, of Charlotte. who was
very instrumental last year in aiding
the Charlotte Young Mems Christian
Association in administering two sue
ccssIve defeats to Trinity, in both
games scoring twenty points. In prac-
tice he has shown up wonderfully we'll,
and ne promises to make an Ideal run
ming mate for Captain Brinn, who will
play the other forward ii no shift in
the lineup Is made. Among the new
candidates for the team are Frank
Brown. ]. r. English. Jr.. and Paul
Neal.
Captain C. b Brinn, who accom-
plshed such wonderful feats at for
ward last year, is in even better form
than last year. There Is n chance
that on account OF a scarcity of guards
he will be shifted 10 that position this
year. Last year he participated in six
games and scored twentynine field
goals, making only three fouls. Ed
win L. Jones, of Charlotte. who is con-
ceded to be one of the best forwards in
the State. especially at long distance
goal throwing, is out for forward and
is showing UP in great form. His rec
CRU laSt year, lHouBn out OF the game
on account of injuries, was phenomenal.
scoring twenty-five goals from the field
and making four fouls.
Last years captain. II. G. Hedrick,
the veteran guard, Is again in college
In the law department and eligible to
place on the team this year, and will
in all robability fill the place of right
guard. During the season of 1901
he played in seven full games allow
Ing fifteen goals TO his opposing for
wards, throwing eight himself and scor-
Ing twenty-scven other points for his

VudOr Harnrr1oCks.

AS the name implies, these Hammocks are
made extra strong where the most strain and wear
comes on hammocks. Ordinary hammocks give
out first In the middle of the bed and in the Sup
porting cords, because the fabric is no heavier or
stronger in the middle than at the sides. The bed
of the Vudor Hammock Is woven with an increas-
ing number Of strands towards the middle, thus
giving extra strength at the point needed this being
an exclusive feature of the Vudor. Those who once
examine these hammocks will readily recognize their
superiority. And they're strong enough for two all

weighs. Get good ones from two to six dollars

VudOr Porch Shades.

They're made Of thin, flat strips Of tough
wood, closely bound together with Seine Irvine in

curtain) and require but little effort to put them

These things, as we all know, are the most fruitful causes of failure in all walks of life The battle of Waterloo was lost because of a head ache.

One of the provisions of the general laws passed by the late state legislature will be hailed with joy by the prospective candidates for the several county of fees at the approaching primary elec- ton in which, with few exceptions, the county officers from members of the judiciary to the beat constables wili De nominated. The provision alluded to is section 54 of the primary election law incorporated in the general laws of Ala bama, 1911, which prohibits the solicita- tion of contributions from candidates for office, no matter what the pretext or purpose.
 A we'll known member. of the present official family stated yesterday that at a former election he was simply bounded with people soliciting for one purpose or another and that he had contributed to numerous causes from the purchase or a wooden leg to the election of a stately edifice. He further stated that in the ma jority of cases that accompanying the re- quest to donate VEG promise of support in the event the contribution was forth coming, or an implied threat of antagon- ism in the case of refusal.
 He strongly advises the prospective candidates to read the law which not only makes it unlawful to solicit contri- buttons under such circumstances, but makes the candidate liable to punish ment in the event he donates or "con- tributes to any of the causes specified in the act while seeking public office.
 The new law provides that 1t shall be unlawful for any person or organization, political, fraternal, religious, or other

HARDING RETURNS
 FROM NEW ORLEANS
Pleased With Conventions Work-G0v. COlquitt of
 Texas for Underwood

President w. P. c. Harding, presi- dent of the First National bank, who participated in the cotton conference in New Orleans called by Governor Colquitt of Texas and attended by the governors or commissioners of agri- culture of all the cotton states, re- turned yesterday morning.
 Tt was a most important meeting," said MT. Harding, in speaking of the object of the conference, which was to restore the price of cotton to some thing like normal "The discussions were earnest and timely. I did not agree with those who wanted to fix arbitrary prices, but we were all agreed on the state warehouse proposition as the practical solution of the price prob lem. This will require Legislation in each state. Louisiana has already act cd on the state warehouse plan and al the other cotton states will, l think follow her example. The plan is simple and business like. When a state Is back of the warehouse issuing cotton receipts those receipts will be current everywhere. The Louisiana warehouse will be erected in New Orleans. One warehouse will be ample for that state but in Alabama we would need about four distributed as follows: Decatur Birmingham, Montgomery and Mobile
 MT. Harding said that Louisiana is today enjoying a high degree of pros perity-the greatest prosperity in it's history, The boil weevil caused the planters to look to other crops besides cotton it put the farmers on their mettle and the result has been grand thing for Louisiana. The boil weevil, said Mr. Harding, has proved bless ing in disguise for that state, for 1t has clearly demonstrated the great value of diversified agriculture.
 In New Orleans MT. Harding heard great deal of praise of oscar Un- derwood. q was glad indeed" said MT Harding, ito hear Governor Col quit say that he was for Underwood for President, for l regard the gov ernor of Texas as a statesman of sound judgment and force of character. He is an exceptionally strong man."
