West Is Much Farther Advanced in
New Football.

If any gent can clear up the 1913
football tangle he will be qualified to
help Chief of Police Gleason do
something besides making morning
and afternoon announcements that
the town will be cleaned up.
There is no way out and no process
of elimination by which a real cham
pion can be named. The new foot
ball, snapped up by the smaller col
leges, has wiped out the old class
lines. The Big Nine and Big Four are
merely names
Apparently the bigger fellows be-
ieVed they could win on the strength,
of tradition. They were wrong. They
quickly discovered that the smaller
elevens, armed with a bag full of
trick plays made possible under the
new rules, were not at all dismayed
by the name of Yale, Princeton, Wis
consin or Michigan on a banner
Haunted in their faces.
Just as some Of the smaller eIeVens
in the West have been quicker than
their neighbors to adopt the new
game, so have the larger Western
teams advanced farther than the
East.
Harvard, Princeton and Yale have
merely, experimental with the for
ward pass. Their attempts to pull off
the play usually result in failure. Col
gate, which caused a sensation by
walloping Yale, seldom used the long
toss. They won on straight football.
Michigan has played Syracuse and
Cornell so far. The new game pre-
vailed over the old. Yost has still to
play Penn, which has made some adj
vances along progressive lines.
Notre Dame waIIoped both the.
Army and Penn State, both victories
being largely due to the smooth way
the Catholics executed trick plays.

Richie and Cross Mix Tonight
campi Makes Mistake.

Camp Makes MISTAKE
At 8 o'clock this afternoon New
York time) Leach Cross and Willie
Richie were well men, in full pos
session of their regular number of
competent arms and legs and ribs.
They are billed to settle their long
delayed fight at Madison Square Gar
den tonight, and unless one or the
other is manned while travelling to
the ring in his limousine they viii
mix. .-....
Cross is by no means an outside
chance in this battle. He is a fine
little fighting machine and is familiar
with the Richie method of boxing.
There is no question of his punching
ability, if he can land.
The title will not change hands
unless Richie is knocked out. Cham
pionships are not decided in ten
round no-decision bouts. But if Cross
makes a proper showing a long-dis-
lance mill on the Pacific coast Is
certainty.
Eddie Campi and his hackers are
apparently very dense persons They
haven't learned their lesson. There is
talk of matching Campi again with
Kid Williams, the Baltimore bantam,
and the coast man is said to be will
ing.
campi and Williams met before,
and Campi was long time recover
ing from the effects of that tangle.
His fight against Benny Chavez last
week was his first high-class piece of
work since. He simply wasn't ready
for didn't have the
strength or cleVerness.
And he isn't ready now. Williams
will whip him., though the battle may
be tougher. The match shouldn't be
arranged Campi is too good a piece

FAMILY OF SIX ARE
SLAIN WHILE ABED
Bodies Of Farmer, wife and
-Four Children CTemated.

Columbus, S. c., June 80. - That
John D. Jacobs, a farmer, who lived
near Peak, Lexington county, and his
wife and four children were murdered,
their house being afterward set on fire
to hide the crime, was the conclusion
reached by the ccroner's jury at an
inquest.
A milknan discovered smoke issu-
ing from a grove where the Jacobs
home stood Investigating, he found
the house almost destroyed and sew
eral charred bodies in the ruins.
The inquest disclosed that Jacobs,
his wife, his daughter, Ellie, aged
twenty-three, and three sons, aged
eighteen, fourteen and ten years, were
all dead The bodies of all except that
of the oldest son, Leslie, were found
lying in their beds, as if they had
been murdered while they slept.
The body, of Leslie was found be-
fore the fireplace. with a shotgun be-
side it. A gun was also found beside
the charred body of Mr.. Jacobs and
an AK near the body of another of the
boys. ~
The skulls of Mrs. Jacobs and the
daughters we're crushed as if by a
heavy blow, and blood was found be-
meath the other bodies. The mattress
upon which the youngest boy lay was
soaked with blood.
No arrests have been made and the
authorities have no clews.

knowledge or proper Instruments, and

ending.
ias s.sr9o; and the exclusion OF
the newspaper correspondents have
caused a great deal Of comment in the
entire state. The action is said to be
without precedent in the eastern
section OF the United States.
There are at least six persons in
Salisbury upon whom suspicion rests
and who can nayer hold up their
heads again till they have either been
cleared or condemned by full expo
sure.
Two OF these persons are gas com
pany officials, another is a married
woman, a fourth wealthy business
man, whose maze was unfavorably
linked with that of the dead girl q
few years ago; another country doc
tor, and the sixth a prominent drug
gist Some of these, who feel confident
of their innocence, are taking lead
In demanding that the investigation
be pushed.
In spite of the pledges of secrecy
everything that transpired was fairly
well known and the demand was more
urgent than ever for justice to be
done on the gas company official with
influential friends.
Only the promise Of the states at
torney to send detectives and to take
the case before the grand jury if the
present proceedings fall fat, as now
seems likely, e.. placate the quietly
organized movement of citizens to
take the law into their own hands.
The inquest showed that Miss Vain.
wright's death was not due directly
to the operation, but was caused by
the effects of it upon her heart and
nervous system.

LIGHTNING BROILS STEAK
Kills Woman, But Finishes Job She
Had In Hand

Carnegie, Pa, June 30.-Lightning
played a peculiar as. well as fatal
prank here, when it struck the chin
ney of Henry Waters house, on the
Steubenville pike, and after running
down the chimney to the. kitchen
range, killed Mrs. Waters snd broiled
steak which she was putting on the
broling irons at the time.
Mrs. Waters had picked up the
steak, walked over TO the kitchen
range and laid it on the irons. She
was evidently about to light the nat
ural gas burner, when terrific peal
of thunder shook the house, and the
lightning zig-za gged down the chin
lney. Every stitch of clothing was burn
ed from Mrs. Waters body. The steak

to bear for family reasons 10 a1soiys
the man or men to whom evidence
points as accomplices in the dealt
here of Miss Florence Wainwright
through an illegal operation.
The effects Of these forces e-fe al
ready evident in the perfect assurance
with which those interested declare
that the coroner's jury, which finished
taking testimony, will implicate no one
in the girls tragic end.
Coroner Charles Covington said:
''The jury stood 10 to for holding a
man who is a gas company official and
who saw Miss Wainwright not very
long before she died."
In the face of this States Attorney
George w. Bell. declared: "The jury
will either disagree or bring in yer.
dict duplicating no one when it recon
venes.."
Bell also said that he took J. Leon
ard Wales, attorney for the Home
Gas company, in whose Office the girl
died, into the case as his assistant at
the urgent request of a high official
Of the gas company and man OF
great power in the whose section.
The fact that F. Leonard Wales, at.
torney for the gas company, was
sworn in az assistant states attorney
and practically conducted the exami,
nation, has aroused a storm of ad
verse criticism.
In view OF these statements it Is
being recalled by many indignant
townspeople, including prominent min.
listers, that Harold Smith, manager OF
the gas company, was marked by ties
timony at the inquest as being the
last man to see Miss Wainwright
alive.
1t is further recalled that Smith is
