ROBERT VANCE DAVIDSON

Judge r.. V. Davidson and his
son arrived here from Dallas Friday
morning TO take part in the cele-

of strong courage and unpurchasable
honesty

Or. NORSIS IS UNDER BOND
Fort Worth Preacher Charged With
Burning Church. Placed I'm.
der $1,000 Bond.

I The grand jury at Fort Worth
have opened a new chapter in the
scandals of that city, by returning an
indictment this week charging Rev
Norris with burning the First Bap-
fist church In that city.
There had been 80 many rumors
afloat, that possibly some people
were expecting an Indictment, yet
this new development causes pro-
found shock to the State
DR.. Norris few days ago resign
ed the passionate of the church and
had gone with his family to Hub
bard city for season of rest
He had not been there long when
message came saying that he had
been indicted for Arson.
He returned at once and surren-
dered to the officers. His bond was
set at one thousand dollars and was
readily signed
There is no telling now whore the
matter will end.
Doctor Norris was a preacher Of
great force ana had made an ex-
tenslve reputation.
whatever may be the facts It is
feared that a. avs Of usefulness
may be over.
There has Z a belief that he
has been d. .cuted, but the
country can 90 believe that two
grand juries and the court officers
would deliberately set about to ruin
man
The most liberal opinion possible
I'm the matter rs that If Dr. Norris is
guilty as charged that he Is surely
seriously out of mental balance II
he did really cause the fires he has
certainly proven good actor. He
will have the sympathies of vast
number of people until the allega-
tions against him are proven.
There are limitations that other
sensational developments may be
expected
The Star Telegram says
That the grand iury's probing of
the series OF mysterious crimes is not
to end with the indictment of Rev
Frank Norris for causing the fire of
Ian. II was made evident Friday
when Rev Mr. Britain. pastor of

LAND SUIT
Court Sustains Defense in Plea of
MISUNDERSTANDING Give
Notice OF Appeal

The celebrated Scu,ry County
School land case came cn Tor trial IN
the District Court here Friday and u
great crowd of citizens assembled at
the court house to hear the proceed
ings.

or rather the public expedlency OF

counties.
The history OF the transaction is
we'll known to the public and the
suit was brought by j. Y. Bowen and

idson OF Dallas and NJ. o. Rosser Of
Snyder
The defendant is represented by
Judge Warren Beall of Sweetwater
and Higgins, Hamilton and Taylor Of
Snyder
These lawyers constitute strong
array OF legal talent and their issues
I'm this case put them on their met
tie and It was an intellectual treat
to hear them expound the law and
cite decsions~and rules Of law bear
Ing upon the case.
Gen. Davidson read his petition TO
the Court. II consisted of thirty
two type-written pages, setting forth
his reasons why the Commissioners
should not have made the sale as II
was done
The defense chen read their an
swer.
Then the defense filed plea in
abatemont and the argument was a
splendid display Of legal talent.
Gen Davidson cited numerous de
clsions ANA Messrs Taylor and Hig-
gins read rules, principles, consti-
tuition and decions 20 show that the
sale was a legal transaction and that
the plaintiff had no grounds for ac-
ton
The Court heard the argument
and sustained the contention of the
defense and che case went out OF
Court.

hearing which was denied and no.

Hortense cayalla was known az

prince OF the royal blood heir to the
throne OF one OF the Oldest Euro
pean countries was so enamored
with her charms that he had repeat
eddy offered to marry her and re-

She was the envy and despair of
all the ladies of the Court as the
men had eyes for no one but her in
her presence. And while her figure
and features were beautiful It was
the SURPRISING lovelIness OF her com

Just how n certain Chemist dis

Many otherwise beautiful women
have been neglected by nature with

trous eyebrows.
To meet universal and popular
demand among the fair sex we have

compound termed "DABRO" con-
sisting OF harmless Organc Sub

sion which will stimulate growth OF
the eyebrows and darken them to
the desired shade.
Harmful Eyebrow Pencils

Bridgeport Boy Plays Great Game For Atlanta Against
 New York

Atlanta, Ga. March 21 Victory rested upon the classic and blond brow of Manager Wolverton of the Highlanders last evening. The Hill- men now have been through their first game under their new boss. They trounced the Atlanta Crackers, Hemphil and all. yesterday afternoon, by score of to 4. It was only an exhibition game, to be sure, but win ing exhibition games is pleasanter than losing them, and both sides were none the less desirous of winning, even if the battle was only of the exhibition sort.
 There wasn't any great likelihood at any time, however, of the New Yorks losing the game. Their pitching was too effective and steady for such a dire result to threaten. Vaughn, Ford. Caldwell and Warhop carried on the box work in proper style. War hop was biffed somewhat in the ninth, but one of the hits was a scratch Dolan crossed Hartzell on a ground ball and baked him. Dolan, incident ally, led the Highlanders at the bat with three hits. He also ran bases we'll
 At'anta's run in the first inning was gift. Odell made a hit and was helped around by wild pitch and a bad throw to Chase, whose arm is inn proving, but still sore. Ford showed up the best of the New York pitchers. The salivary slant was performing puzzling capers and the Atlanta bats were useless before it.
 Odell played right field for Atlanta. He got two hits and stole a base.

HARRY DAVIS DECLARES
 LONGER HITS WERE MADE
 BEFORE CORK CENTER BALI

Manager Harry Davis of Cleveland gives a good explanation of why there is more hitting with the cork center sphere. ''The new ball is no Hvelier than the old one,' says Davis "It retains it's resiliency longer than the old ball and that's all there is to it. The rubber center begins to lose it's shape and livellness after it has been in play a couple of innings, while the cork center sphere will stay right much longer Naturally a ball that keeps it's shape can be batted further than one that is damaged Conse- quently more long hits are made now than formerly for the reason better ball is in play.
 '"To prove my assertion you can look up the records of the longest hits made at some of the old parks Sam Crawford made longer drives at De- troit with the old ball than he has with the new. As for myself, I re- member hitting the ball over cent CT field fence at Bennett park, a trick that has not been accomplished with the cork center. And, if remember correctly, Jake Stahl still holds sev- eral records for the longest hits at two or three parks, and all his drives were made with the rubber center ball. Charlie Hickman made a rec ord breaking swat at our park in Philadelphia a few years ago and none of the boys have ever been able

As for Jeannette, I will try and induce Bcmbardier Wells to meet him, and if unsuccessful, I intend to box him against any two men in Eng land the same night.

 Jeannette is in a unique position. I cannot get anyone to fight him. I recently offered to box Moran, Ken nedy and Stewart all the same night, and they refused. Jack O'Brien of fered Jack Johnson $1O,0OO to box six rounds and he refused as he prev iously had turned down an offer from the McMahon boys of $20,000 for ten rounds with Jeannette. At that time I agreed to give Johnson a bonus of S5,000 if he was declared the winner over Jeannette.

RESTORE JACK CHESPR0
 TO GOOD STANDING AGAIN

John D. Chesbro. one time star pitcher of the New York Yankees yesterday was restored to good stand ing in baseball without the imposi- tion of a penalty by the National Baseball Commission. Chesbro is de- clared a free agent. In an effort to get back into the game once more Chesbro is conditioning himself al Hot Springs at his own expense.
 Chesbro was first promulgated as ineligible for failing to report in 191C to the New York American League club, to which he was under reser- vation. Chesbro later received his un- conditional release from the Yankees The commission decided that Ches- bros absence from thes American League team was not due to disloy- alty or to defiance of the laws of the game. Chesbro did not play in 1910 because he had to pay personal att tention to his lumber business.

Carl Morris Gets
 Fine Beating From
 Husky Jim Stewart
Oklahoma White Hope Too Slow For Brooklyn Boxer in
 Ten Rounds

Jim Stewart. the fighting architect of Brooklyn, outpointed Carl Morris. the Sapulpa engineer, by a wide mar gin in ten fast and fierce rounds, at the Empire A. C., New York, last night. While Morris was not elimin- ated as a candidate for heavyweight championship laurels, being strong and full of fight at the finish, as far as the ten rounds went he was beaten to the proverbial frazzle. The Okla homa Giant still is in the hunt for the heavyweight title. He never has been knocked off his feet and while he has received several trimmings in limited round bouts, he will prove to be a tough customer over a longer route
 Stewart beat Morris with his left hand. At long range Jim popped again beating Morris, who apparently is as slow in thought as he is in move ment, the lead. In the clinches Stewart turned half around and rip- ped up terrific left-handers in the same way that Jack Johnson uses h s right uppercut. Occasionally Stewart called his right into action-in the fifth round he crossed a right to the head and opened the wound made over Carl's left eye by Jim Flynn in their memorable mill some months ago-but depended principally on his left to do the execution.
 Morris, who is soft about the face and easy to mark up, looked far from handsome at the end of the battle Stewart, too, had his decorations, the principal one being a mouse" over his left eye raised by Carl in the fourth round. Both Morris and Stewart have improved, but Stewart showed the greater improvement. Morris times his punches better, gets more snap in his blows and is faster on his feet than hitherto. His princi- pal fault seems to be hts lack of init iative and failure to take advantage of openings. He waits too long, with the result that he almost invariably is beaten to his leads.
