STARS OF WABASH
CAN'T COME HERE

That Center Stonebreaker and Dell
Clements of Wabash college basket
ball five fame, would be in the lineup
OF the Richmond Quaker five in the
game with Cincinnati Christ church,
at the Coliseum Friday night, was a
rumor that had local basketball
colony guessing last evening. There
is little possibility of the two Scarlet
lights appearing here Friday night
albeit their services were offered to
the local crew.
In letter to Richmond friend.
Dell Clements intimated that he would
be glad to hook up with the Quaker
team for the Cincinnati game. He also
stated that Stonebreaker would be
willing to come to Richmond would
the game here not conflict with the
regular bookings of the Wabash crew.
The Charlottesville college team, how.
ever, has game booked for Friday
night and it will be impossible for
the two Wabash lights to appear here
at that time.

is revoked no child under 16 years Of

MYSTERY SURROUNDING
YUAN SHI-KAPS DEATH
Enemies Suggested He Has Made His
Escape to Foreign Land.

Pel1in, Aug. Mot content with
surrounding Yuan Shi-gai's death by
mystery and suggesting that ne eth
or killed himself or was poisoned, the
enemies of the late president are now
suggesting that he is not dead at all,
but has made his escape to a EOrei gn
land and shielded his associates in
alleged financial irregularities of the
alleged financial Irregularities by the
means of the funeral and changed
government.
This astounding view is not confln-
ed to mere wOrd-of-mOuth gossip, but
has found it's way into the Chinese
press and is apparently believed by
some. Chinese, particularly those Of the
CUolie class
Ar anonymous letter writer whose
communication appears in the Picking

any one is so stupid to believe that
Yuan Shi-I1af is dead. or this whole
piece of public theatrical by which we

these implicated in China's nisfoc-

In concluding his letter, the CORES
pondent says: "Talk Of foreign ex-
