VIRGINIA LINEUP
LOOKS TOP NOTCH

Rockford, ILL.,, April 81. That
Virginia is going to take a stronger
team than anticipated when the re-
cruits first arrived here for h once
over by Manager Kid Taylor, was
demonstrated again when they put
the kibosh sign on the locals by the
score of 3 to, 1 in six innings. The
game was called in the sixth on ac-
count of rain. Up to that unhappy
period it had been a fine battle, with
the visitors shaving marked improve
ment in every department.
Lampman pitched for Virginia and
had the home team on his list from the
start. He seemed to be In excellent
shape and no doubt would have
gone the whole way and given a good
account Of himself had not the wealth
err man nipped his chances for a boost
in the dear, old town On the Mime
sofa iron range. Laampman is getting
down to business and ought to be n
of the strong fingers of the season.
While the old baseball heads here
were not so enthusiastic over Kid
Taylor's youngsters they have come to
believe the Virginians will have a
powerful little club. Stewart is a
corker when 1T comes to getting a
bunch in shape and he has some
mighty good, fast men in his squad.
When the two sections of the Ore
Diggers get together, Stewart and
Taylor will have enough material to
select a first-class team and the fans
in Virginia need have no fear that
they will go a long way toward bring
ing home the bunting next fall.
While considerable dope goes the
rounds of the fans and the press dur
ing the training season, the reports
that Virginia will be a contender for
the Northern flag is 10 idle dream,

WEEKS REVIEW IN
MAJOR LEAGUES

New York, April 27.-Rain clogged
UP the major league schedules the past
week and several tie games aided in
piling up double-headers.
No less than eleven games had to be
postponed because of bad weather, six
in the National and five in the Ameri-
can league, while two drawn contests
in the younger and one in the older
circuit will have to be played off later.
In&the thirty seven games that went
to q decision. however, considerable
progress was made in aligning the clubs
in accordance with their playing
strength.
Outstanding features in the weeks
play were the brilliant work Of the
Pittsburghs and notable squirt OF the
Detroits in tie with Chicago for the
American league leadership. The
Pirates won their seventh straight
game on Thursday and were checked
only when on Friday Bob Harmon's old
comrades on the st. Louis team found
his offerings as a Pittsburgh slabman
to their liking.
Hughey Jennings men met their first
reverse of the week on the same day.
but forced the Browns to go twelve
innings to stop them by a 6-5 score.
Their record of five games won and
only one lost. was the banner one OF
the week IN either league.

winners, the Athletics and Giants, TO

ductive of marked success.

third mile. 1t was fast work by both
men all the way.
Tabor, who forced John Paul Jones
of Cornell to make a worlds record or
Ala 2-5 for the mile at Harvard last
year, was unable to shake off Madeira,
who forged to the front and beat Ia
Dor in the mile by about ten yards.
Madeira's time was 4:22 Ais, the fast
est of the four.

The second relay was taken up by

Pennsylvania state. At the half-mile
Langner and Gaussen drew away from
the other two and the Pennsylvania
finished the mile a yard in front Of
the OXonian. The time was ABA, or
9:07 for the two miles.
Madeira and Tabor in the third relay
ran together during the first quarter
Of a mile, and there was no change in
their positions at the end of the half
mile and in the third quarter. Both
men were going fast and seemed to
tire. Iris of Cornell and Garland Of
Pennsylvania state were more than 100
yards, benlnd. TABOR tried 10 snake
off the Pennsylvania. but instead of
doing this he saw Madeira pass him
and make a great sprint down the
stretch. Madeira opened up a gap and
handed the baton to McCurdy for the
last mile, fifteen yards in the lead.

Rain was coming down heavily at the
time, but 10000 spectators did not ap-
pear to mind it and cheered frantical-
ly as the two champions came into the

was Abs, the slowest of the four, due
to the fact that each man was saving
himself for the final traffic drive

The collision occurred at 1885

er an hour before had discharged 900

headed for st. Louis. The boat struck
squarely against the cribbing of the

in JUSTICES COURT
Tries to Fell Fellow Member of
the Legal Profession with
a Chair.

A. Judson Findley, prosecuting at
torney OF Harrison county, and Fred
L. shinn, a we'll known young lawyer,
came near coming to blows in Justice
T. G. Nicewarner's court last evening
at the close of the hearing in the case
of John Stevens and Ella Allen,
charged with living together unlaw-
fully as husband and wife.
From what could be learned of the
case Mr.. Shinn was representing Mrs.
Stevens, wife OF the accused man in
the case, and had effected a peaceful
settlement between Mr.; and Mrs.
Stevens, and Mrs. Stevens wished to
withdraw the warrant against her
husband. Mr.. Findley objected to this
and he and Mr.. Shinn had words. It
is alleged that Mr.. Shinn called
Fndley bad name and that Findley
seized chair and would have struck
Mr., Shinn if persons in the court
room had not interfered.
1t is alleged that after peace had
been restored to a certain degree Mr..
Shinn invited Mr.. Findley outside to
settle the dispute, but Findley declined
to go.
The case against Stevens and Ella
Allen will be decided later.
