Wilbur Good.

Chicago, Feb. S.-Chicago baseball
fans may no: see WILBUR Good in a
Cub uniform this season. Good is one
ball player who is In considerable de-
mand today, regardless of present con-
ditions in the baseball market, but as
there are about six lively outfielders
on the present combined squad Of
Cubs and Whales, it looks as if Man
ager Tinker will let at least one of
the stars go, and indications are that
the one will be Wilbur Good. Ac-
cording to reports. three clubs of the
National league-Pittsburgh Philadel-
phia and Cincinnati-already have
made offers for the player.
Good is one member of the old west
side crew who is tied up to an iron
bound contract, but it is thought the
contract is of such reasonable proper
tons that any one of the three clubs
mentioned would offer no objections
to its terms.

FOR VASHT| TILT
Important Basketball Game to Be
Staged at AledO Tomorrow In.
stead of Tonight.
(By PAUL DAHLEN.)

The date of the William and Vashti
game, set for tonight, has been chang
ed to tomorrow night, when Angus
tana plays at Aledo. A special train
over the Rock Island Southern will
bear the rooters to the home of Vashti,
and at o'clock the game which will
definitely decide the merits of the two
teams, will begin.
Still singing under the so to 36 de-
feat which was administered some time
ago by the Aledoans, Augustana's five
is going into the fray to show all its
ability For the past three weeks the
team has been working hard for this
fray and it will be supported by the
large crowd of Augie rooters who will
accompany the team.
William and Vashti go into the game
with a wonderful record of eight
straight victories, ending the list with
double win last week, defeating Eu-
reka so to 10 and Bradley Polytechnic
20 to 16. Augustana however, has made
an enviable record during the past sea-
son, having lost but one game, William
and Vashti taking the honors in the
first game of the series with Angus
tana. In eight games Augustana has
totaled 357 points to it's opponents 202.
Comparing the scores of the William
and Vashti-Bradley game with that of
the Peorians against the Augustana
tossers, it is evident that Bradley must
have improved wonderfully since it
met Augustana, or that it was merely
an accident that Vashti copied its VIC
tory from Augustana by such decis-
i've score as so to &C.

 The first contingent of British troops under the command of General Sir Ian Hamilton, relatively small in numbers, landed at Seddul- -Bahr April 25, but not without heavy losses. French troops landed on the Asiatic side, but they stayed there only three days. The French subsequently formed the left wing of the British on Seddul- Bahr.
 Early in May other British troops landed on the north side of the penin sula near Ari Burnu, which afterward came to be known as Anzac cove.
 Their object was to cross the penin- sula and cut the communications of the Turkish divisions at Seddul Bahr and storm the Turkish forts on the Gallipol side of the NarroWs, thus opening the way for the safe entrance of the British fleet. They sustained terrible losses and almost from that moment the fighting settled down into trench warfare, which was main tained until August 6, when reinforce ments landed, again with great casu- alties, in the famous Anzac cove and Suvla bay positions
 The veteran Australian and New Zealand troops won a victory, cap turing the Turkish positions before them, but the failure of one of the divisions of the Suvla bay expedition to accomplish the task assigned to it, prevented them from driving it home
 The British succeeded in effecting a junction of their forces, but gained no great military advantage. The fighting here has been described as the most awful of the war, both sides suffering tremendous losses.
