TO BUILD HIGHWAY
 THROUGH OZARkS
WILL BE 96 MILES LONG, FROM RUSSELLVILLE TO
 HARRISON.

Russellville, Feb. 22.-Mass meet ings were held at Dover and Scotts- vile last week, and another will be held in this city Tuesday night to dis cuss the proposed macadam highway from Russellyille north to Harrison. The project is meeting with hearty en- couragement from property holders along the route, and it is proposed to have a bill drafted and presented to the legislature at the present session forming improvement districts to finance the road in Pope and Boone counties.
 The proposed road will be about 96 miles long, about one-half the dis tance being through the forest re- serve in northern Pope, Newton and Boone counties. Forest officers say the government will construct the road through the reserve if the prop erty owners will extend the road north to Harrison and south to Russellville, giving railroad connections at each end. If the improvement district is formed in Pope county the road will be extended through Russellville south to Dardanelle, distance of five miles.
 This is one of the largest highway projects ever undertaken in the state, and if completed will open up vast section in the Ozark mountains that is rich in timber and mineral re- sources and also exceptionally adapt ed to fruits and grazing.

SCHOFIELD BARRACKS, April %.
In one of tie hottest contests yet

1t was d fine exhibition of pitching
by both twirlers. Burnet. by showing
better form in the pinches, had the
better of Stoll, who allowed bases on
balls at critical moments. Each pitch

The first inning was an eventful
one. Burnett and Brown singled and

ed Brown out. Wilkinson sent out a
grounder, scoring Burnett and reach
ing first on the attempt to catch Bur
nett home. Then Stol proceeded to
walk Smart and Sloan, forcing the
second run in.

hitting Norris. -
Brown drew one of Stoll's walks in
the second. frame and he stole Sec
ond base. A wild throw by Stoll, of
Robertson's grounder, scored Brown.
This gave A Battery a three-run
lead, and with Burnett pitching the
way he was, it looked like an easy
victory.
In the last part of the third Browns
error on FouQuette's grounder and a
double by Norris put men on second
and third. Carmichael came across
with a double, scoring them both.
The fifth saw B Battery tie the
score. Fouquette singled and was
scored on the second two-bagger by
Carmichael.
With the score to 3 in the seventh
inning, Burnett whaled out triple to

CHICAGO, I'll. - Forsaking what
promised to be a brilliant career as a
surgeon to become a billiard champion
is the story of Koji Yamada, the Jap
anese, who has been playing the game
in America in the course Of the last
winter. Yamada's father is classed
among the most prosperous and pro-
gressive citizens of Japan. He was
ambitious for a distinguished career
for his son and desired him to have
the best advantages of education
which the world could offer. With
this in view it was decided that Koji
should attend the university at Hell
delberg, Germany, and prepare him
self for the practise of surgery. 1t
was the wish of his father that when
he completed his education he return
to Japan and become one of the dis
tingnished surgeons of that empire.
Koji was not only willing. but en-
thusiastic, and for time was one of
the most promising of the young stu
dents at the German university. 1t
was merely by accident that Koji
found out that he would be more sue
cessful as billiard player than as a
surgeon. At the Students Club at
Heidelberg one evening he was Undue
ed to play game of billiards. Up to
that time he. had never held a cue,
the game not being extensively known
in his native land. From the first he
not only showed remarkable skill as
"a billiard player, but became so fas-
cinated with the game that he spent
more time at the Students Club bill
lard hall than he did at the lecture
room.
He Disappointed Dad.
When Yamada returned home he
failed to bring a diploma from Heidel-
berg. but he did bring with him the
billiard championship Of Germany.
This fact had much to do with adding
an impetus to the game in Japan, and
before coming to America Koji had &C
complished the easy task Of anneXing
the championship of Japan and
the somewhat difficult task of renew
ing the confidence of father in a
son who had gone contrary to the
wishes of the dad. Now Koii is even
bigger man in Japan than if he had
pursued his studies and returned
home with his diploma.
Since coming to this country he
played a sensational game. Perhaps
the best match in which he has ap-
peared was the one early in 1914 with
Willie Hoppe in New York. The
champion. was given the hardest bat
