MISS REYNOLDS DEFENDS
S0UTHERNERy DIALECT.

Miss Mary Reynolds, niece of Miss
Helen Cochrane, who is teacher in
New York boarding school, resents.
and Justly so, the impression north
erners throw out relative to the dia-
lect of the southerners. Relative to
how a southern girl talks. Miss
Reynolds wrote the New York Times
as follows:
This is a protest In the name of
Southern girls generally against the
way in which Miss Edith TaliaferrO
has delineated the type at the Palace
this week. Her play has the charm
and the sentiment of the South, bu,
the ungrammatical, unrefined he
roine Is not Southern. Granted.
there is a certain dialect and manner
Of speaking connected with that sec
| tion of the country. But cultured
! Southerners. and we take 1t Mary
Davis Is of that class, do not say
amt mo- and 'we-all.' They neither
ullSuSc tHc past tcuSc vi Tic NcIU wv
nor confuse the singular and the
plural in the colloquialism you all.
Such charming dialectal popularity
as the Virginia pronunciation of
the word garden is omitted by
Miss Taliaferro The word occurs In
the little play, but she pronounces
it the usual way and neglects the
opportunity to stamp herself as a
true Virginian by saying 'gu-ardin.'
THE way in which Miss Taliafer-
70 acts gives the wrong impression.
She has taken some Southern negro
colloquialisms and tried to make
them pass as the speech Of cul-
tured Southern girl. And 4 saw
more than one loyal Southerner in
the audience show his indignation as
the performance proceeded"

LAST GAME TODAY; PLAYERS APPRECIATE
fine TREATMENT ACCORDED THEN

ing If he should do much better to-
day.
Pitcher Fred Marks. for the Col
onels. was invincible. He struck
out no less than seven of his oppoh.
ents in five innings. Wylie Taylor,
who twirled the last four innings,
was also in good form.
While the Cubans get credit for
one run, it was scored illegally, as
the writed pointed out at the time.
A runner scored from second on
single by Brock, which hit Umpire
Ellis on the foot. According to the
rules of the game. no runner can
advance on batted ball which
strikes an umpire, unless he be
forced by batsman becoming a
base runner. The next man ground
ed out, so that really the score was
to 0 in favor of the Colonels.
For the first five innings, it was
goose eggs for both teams. In the
sixth, the Cubans were blanked, but
Cabrera started Derrick around the
bases by dropping his fly. Midkif
sacrificed him to second. When
Weinberg hit to third. Cabrera again
fooled up the play, in the run
down of Derrick between the bases
! striking that player on the back
with the ball, Derrick reaching
third and Midkiff second. When
Clemens grounded out to Cabrera,
Derrick scored.
In the eighth. Louisville got four
on singles by Osborn. Midkiff and
Platte, a double by Derrick, and a
! fielder's choice. The Cubans scored
in the ninth on Rive's single, his
steal Of second. and thesingle by
! Brock, as heretofore related.

With reluctance we come to the
last day of the training season in
Lakeland. Today's game with the
Cuban Reds winds up the local Sc
ries. and tonight the Colonies leave
this beautiful little city for Jack
sonville. After the game in the
metropolis tomorrow they quit Flor
ida for Atlanta and the north.
On this occasion, the writer de-
sires to express to the Lakeland pub
lie the appreciation or the players,
Manager Hayden, President Wathen,
and of the writer's with the club for
the cordial treatment accorded every
one of usduring our stay here. We
have been given courteous attention
in every way, and it has been a de-
lightful experience. While there
have been drawbacks, they were to
be expected, for this is a new ven
ture for Lakeland, but the enter
prise of its citizens is a sufficient as
surance that if they care to enter
tain another league club or our club
next season, they can go through
with it just as well as Orlando, Fort
Myers or any other city in Florida.
AS to Mondays game, it was won
by the Colonies, to 1. 1t was as
pretty battle of the pitchers a.
one would care to see for the first
seven innings, Louisville scratching
one run across in the sixth. The
Colonies scored four more in the
eighth, when Pitcher Corcho weak
ened slightly after pitching phen
omenal ball throughout, and beint
we'll supported. Shortstop Cabrers
had an off day. but he is goot
player, and it would not be surpris

Baraca Social
a Memorable Affair

Last Friday evening the beautiful
and ever hospitable home of Uncle
| Yves McRae was the scene of one
or the merriest gatherings of the
season when the Young Mems Ba-
raca Glass of the First Methodist
Church held its regular monthly So
cial. The night was superb in every
respect. The air was fragrant with
the odor of orange blossoms and in
the mellow moonlight everything
breathed the soft radiance of spring.
AS the guests entered they were
held up" at the door by Mr.. Bryan
Wilson, who, armed with cigar
box. demanded penny for each
year of their age. 1t was an inter-
esting fact to note that, while the
young mems ages averaged between
sixteen and thirty five, not girl
was present older than sixteen.
Everybody at once threw formality
to the four winds and proceeded to
have a regular old-fashioned good
time.
In the handsome paror many
games were played, and the house
resounded with laughter. Every
body seemed overflowing with the
spirit of gayety. While the parlor
was we'll filled throughout the even
ing, to others the veranda offered
more attraction where an inviting
swing was much in demand. Dur
ing the evening many grouped in
chorus around the piano and united
their voices in song. However, the
pleasure of the occasion was not at
all limited to music and moonlight
for more substantial refreshmenS
in the form of ice cream and cake
were bountifully served. It was the
universal opinion that this social
far outclassed all others previous in
being a complete success in every de-
tail but what makes this more en-
couraging is the fact that the last
social held is always considered the
best, and Mr.. Frank Thompson
should be congratulated on having a
class of such deserving young men

 SESSION UF SENATE
PRESIDENT lNSlsTENT ON RATl- FICATiON OF COLOMBIA AND
 NICARAGUA TREATIES.

Washington, Feb. 25-W hether a special session of the senate shaV be called by President Wilson after March 1 to consider the Colombian and Nicaraeuan treaties probably will be decided by the president tomorrow at q cabinet meeting.
 Many of the presidents advisers are opposed to tho special session but the administration is very anxious to have the treaties ratified and it was considered probable tonight that the session would be called on March D.
 Members of the senate foreign re a tions committee were given to under stand at its last meeting that Co lOmbia was becoming very much aroused over the delay in the ratifica tion of the treaty and was considering protesting to the powers unless some action was taken. The treaty. which expresses regret that anything should have happened 10 mar the friendly re- lations between the two countries and providing for the payment by the United States of S25.090. 900 for Co., lCmbia's loss resulting from the talk. ing of the Panama canal zone. was ratified by the Colombian senate many months ago.
 The administration also desires to have the Nicaraguan treaty ratified partilu arly becaNSe the government in that country is said to be facing se- iious financial difficulties unless it can get the money payment propided for in the treaty for the Nicaraguan canal route
 It was understood that the presi- d. t hopes to have both of these treaties ratified before the formal opening of the Panama canal in July so that at that time entire friendship may exist between all the nations in America
 Although administration leaders be leye that the federal trade commits sion nominations can be confirmed before March !, there is certain to be light on several of them No spe- cial session of the senate would be called to consider these examinations a one, however since the president has been informed by his legal ld. yisers that he has the authority to make recess appointments in case the nominations fail at this session.
