MAN SITS ON THIN PIPE TO FIX
DIRIGlBLE $500 FIT. IN AIR
London.-While a dirigible was re-
turning from scouting operations at
the front few days ago propeller
broke, and crumpling into a ball
dashed against the envelope.
1t was at once feared that all was
over. But by miracle the steel pro-
pellor did not break the envelope, al
though it shook the ship from stem
to stern, throwing the crew to the
floor of their cabin.
But no sooner were the crew clear
of one disaster than a worse one
seemed imminent. For the ship was
carried by a strong wind towards
German territory!
Seeing that the only hope was to
affix another propeller, an engine
room artifcer found spare one, and
$500 feet in the air-clambered
along the 212-inch thick bracket of
stanchion and calmly set to work to
fix the new blades.
With practically no hold, seated on
a ''gas pipe" Is feet from the cabin,
the mechanic worked for two and a
half hours, not leaving his job until
he had made certain of the sound
ness of his work.
But the strain was terrific, and on
returning to the cabin he almost COL
Iapsed in the arms of his cheering
comrades.

1t is apparent that "watchful
waiting" has not solved the Mex
lean patriots. If Pres. Wilson
will carry out the wishes Of the
American people he will with
draw our soldiers from Vera
Cruz and let the Greazers fight
to finish. They are not enti-
tied to the respect or interest of
any nation like ours. We do not
suppose there are any Americans
or other foreigners in the whole
curse ridden country who have
anything more to lose. If any
one remains there now they
might do so at their own peril.
All the industries are destroyed
or will be confiscatad by those
who desire to do SO. There never
will be peace until they get a fill
Of killing each other. That day
has not arrived. The bigger the
battles and the more killed should
be hailed with delight by the
American people. 1t will hasten
the day of settlement and peace.

Hooper at Henderson

Friday, the 25th, was the first time
Chester county was ever honored by
being the host of a governor of
the state. To say Henderson, the
little Athens of West Tennessee,
nobly did her part is to put it mildly.
The beautiful and spacious auditorium
Of the Normal College was gladly
given for the place of the address of
the Governor.
While sitting in a position where
we could view the scene Of upturned
faces with an interest while the
speaker was so earnestly addressing
them for two hours, we felt that we
never saw finer picture, or place
for a public speaker. Every seat was
filled around the three sides stood a
row against the walls two deep, which
gave the appearance Of valley of
faces. There were present as nearly
an even thousand in the auditorium
as could be counted. Not less than
one hundred were on the stage. 1t
was handed out that children were
not expected. Three-fourths Of the
audience were men, and hundreds of
bald heads were like mirrors on the
sea Of faces.
At one o'clock Prof. N. B. Harde-
man presented the governor in one of
the best fifteen minutes speeches we
ever heard on such an occasion.
The Governor made in many re-
spects different speech from the
one he made at the opening at Mem
phis. He is resourcefu and can talk
for twice his usual time, and never
broach any subject twice. Here
piled to some of the statements made
by his opponent and showed by Off
cial figures their inaccuracy. This
was specially so as to the increased
cost of the Dept. of Agriculture.
Applause followed heartily the many
strong things he biought out. No
one left his seat during the two
hours. At the close a beautiful bo-
quet was presented by little girl on
behalf of the school children, and one
one by young lady from the W. c.
7. U. A happy response was made
by the Governor, and then rush was
made to shake his hand, which was
done by large part of the audience
A universal expression was heard
that it was a strong, forceful pre-
sentatioa Of the necessity of the
temperance, law and order to rally as
one man against the four whisky
cities of the state which proposed tt
control the other 90 counties of the
state. He said it was the 'hillbillies'
against the thugs and saloons of the
cities, with their ballot box stufiing
methods,
The Governor and reporters wen
to Jackson Friday evening, where he
spoke Saturday.

of this city retained his title of world s
champion at 1871 balkline billiards here
last night by defeating George Sutton of
Chicago 800 points to 22S in twenty-One
innings.
Hoppe was slow to get going, scoring
only 5 points in the first five innings,
while his opponent ran up s. Hoppe made
high run of 81 in the sixth inning, fol-
lowing it up with a 3. A and 90 This
run of 80 was the highest of the match
and was beautifully played.
Up to the ninth inning Hoppe had
scored 100, while his opponent had only
116. From the tenth inning on Hoppe
kept up his good cue work. but was as
sisted on two occasions by lucky kisses
of the worries.
Sutton's best effort was in the six
seenth inning. but he experienced some
bad luck during the game, the balls being
frozen on one occasion. when they had
to be spotted. Summary:

played the slowest game of the tourna-
ment in the afternoon. Brown winning.
400 to 1886. Although only thirty-t three
innings were played the men consumed
nearly four hours in completing the
contest. The fact that the chance of
either one Of them for championship
honors depended upon the outcome was
the reason why both were more de-
l1berate and careful than in any OF
their preceding games.
Brown proved to be the steadier and
more consistent after he had obtained
promising lead with a fine run of rs
neatly gathered cluster Of 81 by Pog-
genburg in the first half of the same
inning. Score:

NO ROOM FOR FEDERALS.
President Tener Denies Report and
Fires Shot at Outlaws.

HARRISBURG, Pa, March 21.-Presi-
dent Tener declares empha tically that the
Federal League was out of place in the
big circuit, and stated that as soon
as the American and National leagues
started their season the outlaws would
start losing money.
He made this declaration in answer to
a statement alleged to have been made
by him to a man named Henderson. Ac-
cording to Henderson's statement. printed
in Pittsburgh paper, Gov. Tener de-
clared that there is no reason why the
Federal League should not live, and that
Pittsburgh could support an outlaw
team. t.s fla
The governor was also quoted as declar-
ing that there was room for a third big
league, and that he could not see why
it should not succeed
This statement purporting to come
from the National League head, created
SO much discussion that Tener became
indignant. He added:
There is absolutely no truth in the
report emanating from Pittsburgh. I did
not have an interview with man named
Henderson OF any one else. I don't think
there is room or any demand for third
major league"

Future Dates Considered.

NEW YORK, March 21.-Members of
the executive committee of the United
States National Lawn Tennis Association
had busy session at the Waldorf Astoria
trying to straighten out the dates for
the championships and important tourna-
ments throughout the country. At mid
night there were several important fix
lures awaiting the action of the California
tennis authorities. and as a result the an
nouncement of the seasons schedule is
not likely to be made before tomorrow.
In addition, the request of the Australian
Davis cup committee to have its pre-
liIninary tie with Canada decided in New
York instead of Niagara. as suggested by
Canada. may serve to complicate matters
somewhat

GETS REAL TEST.
CARPENTER Meets Jeanette in 20
Round Scrap Tonight.

PARIS, March 21.-Georses Carpenter.
heavyweight champion Of Europe, will un-
dergo his first critical test when he faces
Joe Jeanette, the colored American box
er, in a scheduled twenty-round bout at
the Cirque de Paris tonight.
The French idol will concede fully twen-
ty pounds to his rival Besides, Georges
lacks the experience necessary to cope
with a veteran like Jeanette. It is be-
lieved here that the Ethiopian is not as eff
fective fighter as he was several years
ago, when he knocked out Sam McVey in
forty-nine rounds at the same club.
Local critics are inclined to the belief
that Jeanette will outpoint Carpenter,
but they declare that a defeat on points
will not mar the prestige Of Georges.
