SCHOOL CHILDREN STRIKE.
in Pittsburg When Super
intendent Heeter is Acquitted.

Hundreds of children yesterday af-
tcrnoon marched out of schools in var
cus districts of Pittsburg, Pa, and
Iaraded through the streets in protest
,;rainst the return to Office of Super
intendent E. L. Heeter, who was ac-
quilted last week of charges against
him by Ethel Fishe, nurse in his home
Upon his acquittal accusations were
made that he was guilty of miscon-
duct with two other girls.
Heeter had been greeted in church
Sunday morning with congratulations.
Mothers hocked to the schools and
commanded their children to remain
out.
The movement spread quickly
through city until schools on sides OF
the river were affected. Parades were
.ormed and the children marched
through the business streets, singing,
Good night, Heeter," and carrying
signs saying, "Kick Heeter out" and
"IIeeter's crook" Business men along
me streets en- route gave the children
car,iy and coins to spend, shouting
| Encouragement to them.
Those opposed to Heeter say that
the strike Of the pupils will spread
ike wildfire and continue until it viii
(, necessary to close the schools.
Lat night a noisy crowd made a
demonstration in front of Heeter's
louise and several arrets were made.

CORRECTING JURY VERDICTS.
Supreme Court Decides Appellate
Court Must Cease Doing So.

Washington, April 22-Federal ap-
nellate courts musI no longer cor
:ect the verdicts of jurfes when they
believe insufficient evidence has beer
introduced to support them. Five tt
four the high courts yesterday de.
cided that such Ia procedure adopt
ed by some courts to avoid new trial:
and delays, was in violation of the
saventh amendment to the Constitu.
lion.
The suit of Lillian F. Slocum, O:
Pittsburgh, against the New Yort
Insurance Company for $4,000 in
surcnce on her late husbands life, il
which the Circuit Court Of Appeals
for the third circuit, set aside the
verdict for Mrs. Slocum, was Sent
back for retrial.
Justice Hughes dissented IN vi
gorous opinion, in which Justices
Holmes, LuKon and Pitney concur
red.
"The tremendous effect of E;his de.
cision," declared Justice Hughes, "is
not only to overrun the practice Of
Federal courts in. Pennsylvania from
following the state law allowing ap-
pellate courts Ito correct verdicts
without new trials, butt it prevents
Congress, without an amendment t6
the Constitution, to legislate so as
to allow federal courts to pass on the
sufficiency of evidence and correct
the error of juries by deciding the
fadas themselves, thus saving ths
cost of new trials"

Cardinals Not Supported.

The baseball season for the year
1913 has been opened atthe baseball
park on north Alfred street, but, 1t
can be truthfully stated, the attend
ance thus far has been very small
rot enough to pay the necessary eX-
lenses. Can it be tina trhe "fans of
Alexandria do not desire to support
ne home team? 1t is to be hoped that
UGH is not fact In former years
our home folks were always ready to
aid the boys by attending the games
roofing for them in a way that often
brought success wnen defeat stared
them in the face, and, not only that,
but would cheerfully as!=;v the lads
in financial way when it was neces-
sary.
This city has many star base ball
PLAYERS who can more than hold their
own against any amateurs IN the
State or District of Columbia or near
by towns, and this is no boast, either,
but true in every way. What they
need is encouragement to get good re-
suits. Fans patronize Idhe baseball
park, cheer for the home team during
the contests, and do not condemn them
should they lose, for the best OF teams
have off days, and the local lads are
no exceptions in this regard.
Many fine baseball organizations
will be seen here this season, II 1t Is
possible to defray the expenses neces'
sary to bring them here, and 1t Is
earnestly desired that all Fans" will
be as loyal this season as they have
been in former years and success Is
sure to crown the amateur oasebal
players in Alexandria.
Games will be played every 'Wednes'
day and Saturday.

Teh baseball team of the Alexandria
High School is deserving better sup
Dort from ',he lovers of the game in
this city than it has yet received
From the beginning of the season this
team of boys has played a cinslstant
and strong game and every contest
has been close and interesting. Here
is team of boys, purely amateur
saoresenting cur High School, playing
he best games of ball to be seen in
he city and thus far the attendance
mas been worse than poor The next
rame on schedule should be witnessed
by every friend of the school and eV-
cry fan that loves the game for It's
own sake. To see these youngsters
LAY once will whct the appetite for
al future games. Go out an dtry it..
This is The opinion of one in no way
connected with the school.
Yesterdays game with the George
town Freshmen was well played and
exciting from first to last. The visl-
tors were evidently in higher class
:han he home team but pluck and
timely hitting sent them back to
Washington disappointed crowd.
For five innings the game was close
and to all appearances a certain VIC
tory for Georgetown. In the sixth
Nth TIE score three to one against
them, Alexandria became very busy
with the bat. Hard, clean drives by
Nails, Pos. and Fisher melted two
runs. The seventh brought great JOY
10 the small crowd. With Raison and
Devers on by virtue of hits, Anderton
laced the ball over the left field fence
for home run. Georgetown scored
in THE eighth and gave the home team
:: score in the ninth. In the final round
he visitors had men on second and
third and one out when Devers grab
bed line drive with his gloved hand
touched second for an unassi5ted doub-
e play and stopped the rally.
The battery work Of Raison and
Nails was superb. Although handi,
capped by severe injury to his right
leg, R-ison finished the game anc
i:ept the visitors guessing at all times
Cass and Martin were the only mer
who hit him with any regularity. He
allowed but seven scattered hits ant
id not issue pass. Devers, at short
was very much in evidence in tn:
field and with Poss and Malls led a,
the bat.

 Our county needs better roads, and by attending this meeting you may be able to give Independence county the benefit of the infor- nation gathered at the Conyen- ton.
