JACKIE SHOULD
HAVE HOT NINE
NEXT YEAR

Along with the better hopes of a
Good football team at Tech, there also
,omes most encouraging news in re-
card to the baseball prospects for
,sv+ spring. OF course. between now
and that time there are many things
mat may occur to upset all dope and
change good prospects into the gloom
lest of realities
Nid-year exams always thin the
ranks. and athletes seem to be those
who Get the ak the quickest. However.
I'VE live in hope if we die in despair. -
and the following is just an insight
into what may be expected;
Pax Montague win captain the
team and can be depended on for most
sny place, but will most likely be used
again as a catcher.
Goat" Holiday. the man who made
Tech fans forget Calhoun ever played
fre initial sack, will be back on the job.
H. mas been playing all summer, and
this experience will help.

I'M for look-in at the second base
msus job
clements, Of last years squad. will
return and should make good this year.
For shortstop, there is Jack Donald
son. The best man in the city league, for
that job.
The third sack is the one that will
be- hard to fill in the way that it has
been looked out for in the past four
years. Harry. Holland was without a
doubt the best third baseman in the
s !. A. A.. having been all-Southern
for three years and captain for two
Years However. there is a man from
Wisconsin, James Clover who has
made all-W isconsin prep end and third
base. ard he viii make somebody hus-

Hamilton from Lexington. Ca, will
aIsp be on hand.
IN the outfeId. Pound will be helped
by McL.n and Hal Reynolds. from

for a berth.
The old men who will return and

REPORT
Authorities Won't Discuss
Lucas Fire Mystery.

Prosecutor Allen yesterday interro-
gated neighbors of Seth Lucas, near
Greensboro, regarding the conduct of
the aged man on the night that fire
destroyed mis- home and incinerated
his wife. The prosecutor said that
Lucas was not popular in the commu-
nifty and that the neighbors were not
backward in telling derogatory things
about him.
Both the prosecutor and deputy cor
oner refused to reveal the facts ascer-
tanned yesterday, saying that the
finding will not be known until the
coroner's report is filed. Lucas was
not questioned yesterday. He is Wis
iting with relatives.
Chief of Police Gormon said that IT
was not within his sphere to investi-
gate the indiscriminate charges that
have been made against Lucas.
B. F. Harris, brother of the dead
woman, said that he knew nothing of
the insinuations against the charac-
ter of Lucas and that he had taken
no part in the demand for an investi-
cation made in certain quarters.

TURKEY IS AROUSED.

CONSTANTINOPLE Oct 5.-Prac-
tical confirmation of reports that Bull
garian troops have crossed the Turk
ish frontier were secured here today.
The war ministry announced that
there had been skirmishes between
Bulgarians and Turks on Turkish ter
ritory. There was no information
available, however, that the main Bull
garian army had moved into Turkey.
Grand Vizier Ghazi Pacha declared
that the Ottoman government would
do everything compatible with dignity
to avert war although he declared that
Turkish outposts had also reported
the invasion of Turkish territory by
Greek and Servian troops ard that IL
would be necessary for the govern
ment to maintain its prestige by force
of arms if these reports were true.
Although the grand vizier said that
conservatives in the government are
opposed to the young Turks demand
for immediate declaration of war, the
spirit of the people must be reckoned
with and the populace is almost as a
unit in calling for war.

OUTSIDE COMPANIES
Preparing to Bid on Water
Works Contract.

Irrespective of whether the Rich
mond City Water works and e. NJ.
Campfield submit bids for the con-
tract of supplying the city with water,
the board of public works is not wor-
rying about the submission of bids.
A number of firms and corporations
have written the city officials asking
for details regarding the contract 1t
is believed that more than the local
concerns will submit bids for the
franchise. Both the officials of the
water works company and E. NJ.
Campfield have secured copies of the
proposed contract, supposedly for the
purpose of studying them thoroughly
as a basis for their bids.
A number of construction concerns
believed the city intended to build a
new plant and sent inquiries to the
officials asking for specifications.
City Clerk Bescher has been kept busy
answering these inquiries.

MORE GR|ST FROM
THE DIVORCE MILL
One Couple Is Tired of Mar
ried Life-Husband Says
Wife Is a Drunkard.

An unusual case was tried by Judge
Fox in the Wayne circuit court this
morning. The case was Elvin T. Ben.
son versus Jessie Benson, action for
divorce The judge stated that he had
never tried a case having the same
characteristics as the Benson case
and that he was considerably puzzled
as to the course he should pursue, in
order to strictly follow the law.
Elvin Benson, the plaintiff living in
Wayne county, filed the complaint
against Jessie Benson, residing in In.
dianapolis, Marion county. The plain
tiff had no cause for asking divorce,
because he had abandoned the defen.
dant. However, the defendant filed a
cross bill in the Marion circuit court,
by which action the case was permit.
ted to be brought under Judge Fox's
jurisdiction.
Both parties desired the divorce and
both were in the court room this
morning. The plaintiff testified that
their marriage was forced and that
he abandoned his wife because he was
tired Of living with her" The court
granted the decree.
Proving that he wife is habitual
drunkard, Joseph Goodman this morn
ing secured divorce from Ellen Good
man. Mrs. Goodman has been arrest.
ed four times within the last two
years on the charge of public intoxica-
tion.
Although the plaintiff is employed
as a porter in a local saloon, he de-
clared, on the witness stand that he
had not drank Intoxicating liquors
during the past three years. The de.
fendant declared that her husband
taught her to drink liquor. saying that
when the plaintiff would come home
at night he would wake her up and
give her whisky. She also stated that
the plaintiff had been with other
women Goodman alleged that he had
paid about 5000 in fines on his wife's
account.

AMERICAN MARINES D|SLODGE
N|CARAGUANS AFTER BATTLE

Barranca Hill is located near the
town of Coyoteta which was after
wards occupied by the American
forces.
Previous dispatches to the state de
partment stated that the American
commander in Nicaragua. Admiral
Switzerland. had given General Zele-
don twenty-four hours notice to vacate
Barranca Hill and allow the passage
Of American marines.
The time limit of this ultimatum ex-
pired at 10 o'clock yesterday morn,
ing.
A later cablegram to the Nicaraguan
legation here stated that 100 Nicara,
guam government troops were killed
and 200 wounded
General Zeledon, fatally wounded
was captured eight miles from Ma
saya while retreating from Barrancs
Hill. and died shortly afterward.
The use of rapid fire guns on both
sides of the hill is supposed to have
done frightful execution among the
rebels at the top.

Judge Fox Will Try Him on
an Affidavit Filed Before
Grand Jury Met to Con-
slider Case.
GRAND JURY DID
NOT INDICT HIM
Court Holds 1t Unusual to
Permit Defendant to Ap-
pear for Himself Before
the Grand Jury.

The Jack" Lewis criminal assault
case took another turn this morning.
Judge Fox of the Wayne circuit
court informed a Palladium represen-
tative that no indictment had been re-
turned by the April grand jury against
the repertoire actor and that he in
tended to have Lewis brought to trial
upon an affidavit charging him with
criminal assault on little Edith Moon.
The affidavit was filed some time be-
fore the grand jury met.
That it is very unusual procedure
to bring defendant before the grand
jury and allow him to testify, and vir-
.tually present his own defense, is an
other statement of Judge Fox. Lewis
was brought before the grand jury
last week, he and his wife coming
from Kentucky, where the Lewis-Oliv-
er company was playing a several
weeks engagement. Lewis attorney
informed newspaper men on the day
Lewis appeared before the grand jury
that Lewis came here voluntarily"
No Indictment Returned.
'T learned just this morning that
no indictment was returned against
Lewis said Judge Fox. you can say
for certain, that the statement came
from me that no indictment was re-
turned against the actor. However,
intend to bring Lewis to trial upon an
affidavit which was filed before the
grand jury was called"
A number of the older members of
the Wayne. county bar are much schag-
rined because Lewis was pernrftted to
appear before the grand jury. One at
torney declared that until special
prosecutor was appointed, he intended
to assist the prosecution gratis before
the grand jury. However, after the
court appointed an assistant to Prose
ting Attorney Allen, this attorney re-
fused to "be mixed up in the case" ,"
ne said.
In regard to the Lewis case, Judge
Fox declared that his cash bond of
$1,000 will be held until the case is
settled.
VIII Handicap Case.
The fact that no indictment was re-
turned against Lewis, local attorneys
state will greatly handicap the prose-
cution when the case is brought to
trial.
1t was while playing a ten-weeks'
engagement at the Murray theater
here that Lewis was arrested upon a
charge, preferred by Mrs. Moon, moth
er of eleven-year-old Edith Moon, who
was riding with Lewis in carriage
on the evening of the arrest. The
girls story was first told to her moth
er and then to Chief Of Police Cor
mon. The girl also told her story to
the grand jury. Perry J. Freeman has
been acting as special prosecutor in
the case

pany, administrator of the estate of the
late Homer P. Stanley. 1t Is alleged in

the negligence of the defendant COM
pany. 1t is alleged that Stanley was
ordered to ride on the top of tower"
repair car, which was pushed by a
passenger interurban on the tracks
west of the city; that the tower" car
was overthrown, Stanley falling to the
ground and the front wheels of the
passenger car running over his body.
