CARROLL'S PROTEST
BROUGHT UP TONIGHT
South Atlantic A. A. U. Chair
man On Hand to Take Up
Distance Title Race.

Dr william BurdIck, chairman Of the
registration committee. with following
Of Baltimore men. will be present to-
night At Carroll Institute 70 take up the
protest of the Carroll runners on the
recent South Atlantic cross country race
In Baltimore which the Carroll men
state was scheduled to be held at six
miles. hut which in reality was a bit
over half the distance.
The rules Of the A. A. T., II - MAIN
tanned by the Carroll men. call for a
tltla race OF six and one-half miles. The
Baltimore event was won in something
over twenty-three minutes. which Is q
notable performance II the distance was
better than six miles. The Monumental
City officials were inclined to ignore the
protest of the Carroll men, but have
come to the conclusion that there was a
mistake somewhere and want to rectify
If possible the error
q. n. Gibbs. who received the Carroll
protest, was inclined to ignore the
matter, but Chairman Burdick took the
protest under advisement with the
result that tonight the PRINCIPALS in the
matter will thoroughly thresh out the
case.
II Is not unlikely that the A. A. Y.
will order the race run over or call the
race already run a special event not 10
count for the title. Carroll men main
tain that they were trained to run six
and a half miles and that before they
had gotten fairly started the race waH
over.

PHILADELPHIA. Dec 14--Blll Hol-

served Cornell in the last three years
will be retained next fall. according to

coach and that Cornell might be asked
to release him. Mr., Kent said
"The Cornell athletic authorities have
received no request from the Yale man
agement regarding the release OF nr.
Sharpe from his five-year contract. and

Birth of a Nation" at Ashland.

No town Of its class will have any
thing on Ashland, days Dee. u to
l6, for through the enterprise of Man
ager Latts, of the Royal, arrange
nents have just been perfected to
bring to this city for one entire week,
the biggest and most widely adver-
tised thing ia the history of amuse-
ments, d. w. Griffith's 1.-The Birth
of a Nation, much talked of spectac-
ular production of slavery, the Civil
War and Ku-Klux Khan epoch.
Just imagine a full week stand in
this city of thing so gigantic as
"The Birth of Nation, and at a
time, too, when seats are selling from
four to six weeks in advance in New
York City and Chicago for it, and
even ahead of many Of the country's
greatest cities,
In this connection, it is interesting
to note that the large cities of Phila-
delphia, st. Louis, Baltimore, Cleve-
land, Pittsburg, Detroit and even
Washington, have not as yet got to
see "The Birth of Nation, except
as they have gone to New York for
that purpose.
The big attraction will be put on
there at the Royal precisely as it is
now being produced in the Metropol-
is-enlarged symphony orchestra and
full and complete outfit and equip
ment are to be brought here for that
purpose.
1t is estimated that thousands of
people from the neighboring cities
and towns and country will thus be
attracted hither during the big week
and that no little outside money will
be left in the hands of the merchants,
hotel keepers, etc. here, on account of
it.
AS Manager Latts says, 1T is ac-
tually providing Ashland with a great
State Fair for a week, with all it's
powerful attractions, absolutely free
of cost to the community" Great
symphony orchestra of % pieces. Mat

s---.-- INFLUENCE OF WORDS. =

No one can say exactly wherein lies
the potent influence exerted by the
mere joining together Of words in
certain peculiar ways. In oratory the
language undergoes mysterious trans
mutations as 1t slips across the vocal
cords of the spellbinder. Yet 1t Is
often with them, as with the worthy
Pecksniff, who could take the most
ordinary utterance, and, repeating it
to the original spokesman, SO fill it
with mellow timbre and soapy JUNCTION,
as not only to better it. but to make
it entirely his own. It Is for this same
reason. no doubt, that every display of
oratory partakes of hypnotic effect,
leaving the momentarily deluded vic
tim to ponder afterward upon his pass
ing thralldom with an injured feeling
as of one who has been triaed with
and imposed upon. But words them
selves, apart from the commingled
charm Of the human voice, are mighty
beyond compare. The minds of men
are filled with evanescent thoughts,
which dissipate and are lost unless
put into words and cherished by ira
dition, or cast into the permanent
record of the printed page.
