Vardaman Wars on Negroes.

Four attacks in seven days by
negroes upon white women in
the streets of Washington in

tor Vardaman to action and to
speech. He at once began an
investigation of offices in which
negroes hold high positions and
will call upon President Wilson
to ask his aid in a movement to
keep the negro lin subsection"
These attacks arise from the
recognition given to negroes by
the white people in authority in
the Government" declares Var
daman.
This stirs his ambition to be
considered socially equal to the
white people, and he loses his
head entirely. Then, when one
makes an attack, it infiames
others and so a series developes.
For his own sake, as we'll as
for the safety of the woman of
the white race, the negro must
be put in his proper place and
kept there. He should not be
placed in positions of authority
with white people, nor in author
ity over them.

portunity offers, | shall call on
President Wilson and urge him
to abandone the practice of ap-
pointing negroes to offices of

The Tobacco Crop Of 1913.

Estimates of tobacco acreage
in Kentucky place it at 345, 06C
acres in 1912. The estimates of
production forecast a total crop
of 2lO, SOB, 900 pounds in 1912.
The decline in acreage is due
to curtailment of the crop in the
dark tobacco region where much
of the last years crop is still un-
sold and where the prices recent
ly have been enything but salts
factory to the growers The
State Agricultural Commission
er's report for June places the
acreage of dark tobacco at Ga
per cent. and the condition a lit
above Is per cent. On the con-
trary the acreage of Burley is es-
timated at 80 per cent. and the
condition a t 70 per cent. The
Burley growers. it should be re-
membered, have been getting
fair prices for their product and
thus have found incentive to
big crop.

NOT MUCH OF A BUNTER
Joe Jackson, of the Maps, Does Not
Like to Sacrifice.

Joe Jackson il not much of a bunter.
Nor does he Ike to bunt. So Skipper
Birmingham, OF the Maps. talks thusly:
1T goes against Joe's grain to bunt, and
believe that, despite his speed. It's
best for him to hit 'ep out instead OF
sacrificing. He's so fast that there's no
chance to double him. and 1t stands to
reason that the percentage is in Jack
sons favor when he hits it out instead
of sacrificing"

Measurements of the
Star Rival Grapplers

The middle-weight wrestling champion
ship is at stake tomorrow night when
Joe Turner. present holder of the title
and Jack Jordan, the fast Northern
grappler. meet on the mat at the Gay
ETY. Theater in the star event on the
monster beneht for George Peck, the
popular manager of the Ninth Street
playhouse.
This match has been hanging fire for
the past three months. Jordan claims
that he defeated Turner up North, but
that the local boy refused to give up the
belt. saying that he (Jordan), had not
posted a sum to cover the belt. This
is true, to all reports, but the visitor
Is hot after Turner, and a great bout
should result.
The winner of this battle will more
than likely be pitted against Mike
Yokel. when the Salt Lake City man
comes East this summer Turner has
been working harder for this match than
ever before. while Jordan reports him
self to be in the best OF shape. This
bout will be the main attraction OF the
evening. and will take place after three
rafting good preliminaries have been
disposed OF.
OisOn vs. Albright.
The semi-windup of the evening will
be between Young Olson and Con Al
bright. two sterling wrestlers, who need
no introduction to local mat fans Olson
has been resting up for the past two
weeks. and is ready to step on the mat
tonight. Albright lost hard bout to
Joe Turner last week, but he put up
so fast and aggressive bout that Man
ager Peck deemed il wise to match him
with Olson in the carnival These men
have been loafing on the job but are
trained to the minute. This match should
be worth the price of admission.
The second event OF the evening will
be between Louis Montana, the fighting
Italian. and Jess Hansen. both OF whom
are well known to local mat fans.
Montana recently defeated John KIlonis
in New York, forcing the Greek to give
up after whirling him around the ring.
Montana will take on Hansen at catch
weights. and this pair should furnish the
fans some interesting and amusing work.
The curtain raiser of the entertainment
will see two local boys at work for a
side bet and a good sized purse. Lou
Scroggins. who lost a hard bout to Mon
tsna several weeks ago. will take on
Tom Vongalem, the pride of the Ard
more Athletic Club, in a handicap bout.
agreeing to throw the -clubman twice
within an hour or lose the bout.
Pat O'Connor, the well-known and
popular referee, has been decided upon
to handle the matches, and this in
sure the fans clean and fast bouts
throughout. Seats are on sale at the
box office. The doors will open tomor-
row night at o'clock, as a record
breaking crowd is sure to attend the
carnival.

Toward the end Of July the crater

column Of vapor, with ashes and la

on the northeast side of the central
crater OH May %. l91l This was fol-
lowed by another outburst on Aug. 3
at p. m. and by still more pro-
nounced eruption on the following day.
At l0:46 n. IN. on Aug. 4 great col
umn Of vapOr rose from the same vent
to height of ten kilometers and then
dffted off to the southeast. covering
the southeast flank of the volcano with
ashes 'as far as OanizZara. Shortly
before this. from July 2S to 81. in
creased activity also prevailed in

shocks. loud rumbling noises and con-

here this afternoon. Until the 9Th
inning when the visitors refused to
play any more and the umpire gave
the game to Buffalo, by the score of
8 to o. After waiting three minutes
the score at this time was Buffalo 8,
Monarch 2. The home team played
a very nice game. Mr.. Sparks man.
ager of the visitors claimed that the
umpire was not elected by the Lea
que officials. Mr.. Todd was asked as
to this statement and said that is
was not correct. There is just one
story to this game and It is just this:
"too much Buffalo for Monarch. !"
