William McCorry says that the
only time that his lack of stature has
been an affilction TO him in baseball,
is when the scouts we're out looking
over available material and then he
often was lost in the tall timber.
81 know I'm smaller than most
pitchers. but I've been beating the
big fellows right along so ] don't see
where they have anything on me, Is
the way Mac" figures II out.
IF | hadn't been pitching In so
many clubs with big men and done
better than they might have
thought that there was something 10
the idea that a small man has a dis
advantage over the big fellow when
Il comes TO box work.
II don't believe that a big fellow
scares anybody just because he Is
biz. They're just as afraid OF the ut
tie man with the stuff as they are OF
the tall guys It's only case OF get
ting a reputation whether YOU fright
en- batters.
I'm content with my size"
II Is Manager Jennings intention
tt,- keep the recruits at baseball and
nothing but baseball. and for that
purpose a better city than Monroe
could not have been picked out
The only form OF athletic activity
besides baseball that has been dis
covered here is chasing billiard balls
around the green cloth and keeping
ones balance while viewing the city
from a street car.

club house is right on its bank.
II is fed by hot salt water springs.
The cool weather that has been on
the program since the Tigers have
been here, however, has made both
the water, after IL has entered the
pool, and the air, too cold for swim
ming.
Unless the weather changes soon
the Tigers this year will be at dis
advantage as compared with last as
10 their condition when leaving here:
Swimming was INDUCED in last year
after the first day here and the hot
weather put everybody in shape
quickly
This year there hasn't been a real
ly hot day, nor one even when 1t did
not require a good deal of exertion
to work up any sort OF an anti-fat
sweat. Some warmth so that IL won't
kill the overly fat men to work would
be the most welcome thing in the
world.

LOYAL TO HIS ALMA MATER.
Attainments of Professor J. w. Work
of Fisk University.

Attainments of Professor J. w. Work
of Fisk University.
The excellent record made by ]. w.
Work, professor of Latin and history
at Fisk university, in Nashville, Tenn,
as an instructor and capable field rep
resentative in connection with the
Fisk singers, entities him to a place
among the foremost of our present day
educators. Professor Work has made
a long and thorough study Of Negro
music and is recognized as an authori-
ty in that direction. He was born in
Nashville, under the shadows Of Fisk
university, and was educated in the
public schools of his native town and
at Fisk, from which institution he
graduated with honors.
Actuated by u further desire for
education, he entered Harvard uni
versity. He afterward took a course
of study at the University of Chicago,
where he earned the degree of master
of arts. He then returned to Fisk, his
alma mater, and became an instructor.
His superior knowledge gained at the
eastern cOIleSeS StOOu MIN In good
stead for valuable service at Fisk, and
he was placed at the head of the Latin
and history departments Of the uni
versity several years ago, where he
has since taught.
AS a teacher he has made good and
has maintained the high standard for
which the school is noted. He is one
of the most popular instructors at the
university and has become a fixture
Along with his academic duties he
devotes much time to the study and
development of music. He has written
and spoken much on music and has
made some very valuable contribu-
tions on the folk songs of the race.
Professor Work is now writing a book
on the history of Negro music.
He devotes much space to the ne
cessity of preserving the musical ira
ditions of the race, which have been
handed down in the folk songs. Some
of the most prominent musical critics

New York.-One of the most hopeful
signs of the substantial progress which
the race is making may be seen in the
advance that is being made in the
home More and more parents are be-
ginning to pay greater attention to the
home and the training of their children
along lines of usefulness and right liv-
ing. This being done. they will get out
of their young lives all of the beauty
and charm of well regulated home.
AS long as parents put the proper
estimate upon the home and the set
ting before the children of the proper
examples of right and useful living
greater will be the advance of the race.
One of the most helpful organizations
in this section. which is welding wide

pertaining to Negro music. While in
New York recently Professor Wor,u
had several consultations with musical
authorities on the Negroes contribution

ACTORS WIN BAGGAGE FIGHT
Commerce Commission Suspends New
Rule of Railroads.

Washington, June 10.-The wall of
the one night stand actor reached the
interstate commerce commission. and
the commission decided to extend as
sistance. All the railroads were to
put new rates In effect providing that
after July no pieces of baggage the
greatest dimension of which exceeded
seventy inches would be transported
in baggage cars. The actors protested
that this would compel them to ship
their baggage by express and that pos
sibly 1t would be delayed
The commission temporarily sus-
pended the new rules pending an in
vestigation. The railroads also an
nounced that after July / they would
charge at the rate of ten pounds ex-
cess for each additional inch in trunks
over forty-five inches.
Nearly every association of CONNER
-cial travellers In the United States pro-
tested against this rule, and the COM
mission has suspended 1t also.

National Committee Settles
More Contests.
ONE TEST VOTE TAKEN
Only Division Shows Forty-two for
Taft and Ten for Roosevelt-Presi.
dent Has Now Secured a Total OF
Sixteen Contested Seats.

Chicago, June 10.-Sixteen of the
eighteen delegates from Arkansas
have been added to the Taft column
by the Republican national commit
tee. Two delegates, those from the
Sixth district, were uncontested and
classed as "uninstructed."
The only serious fight, eliminating
in a test vote of AZ to 10, was over
the contest in the Fifth district The
majority stood solid and decided il
for Taft.
Lyon of Texas and Bieber of the
District of Columbia were listed as
mot voting"
Senator Borah, who thus far has
led the Roosevelt contingent, was not
present, even by proxy.
President Taft was given the two
delegates from the Third COMPRESSION
al district of Arkansas in the first de
cision of the committee, adding to the
eight from that state and the sixteen
from Alabama, given him the previous
day. The Third district decision was
unanimous, 81 to 0.
In quick succession the President
was given the disputed delegates from
the Fourth, Fifth and Seventh dis
tricts. In the case of the Fifth district
there was an attempt to seat both
factions with half vote each, but II
was voted down, AZ to 10. Commit
teeman f. b. Kellogg of St Paul was
one of the leaders in the attempt to
divide the delegation from this dis
trict.
With the sixteen credited to him
from Alabama Mr. Taft now has won
thirty-two delegates to date and Col
onel Roosevelt none.
