BAIL IS ASKED FOR THE MEN
CHARGED WITH WADE MURDER
Hearing Has Been Set by Judge Lit
tlejohn for Saturday. State Ex-
pected to Oppose Move.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS for bail
was made before Judge Littlejohn to-
day for DR.. C. K Chapman, Warren
l. johnson, Walter Johnson, c. K.
Chapman, Jr., and John Etheridge,
five of the six indicted men now in
jail charged with the murder of Wal
ter Wade.
The attorneys for the several de-
PENDANTS joined in the plea, which
was set for hearing on Saturday,
March 81, by Judge Littlejohn. H.
A. Harp, the sixth man indicted,
has been released on a bond of $500.
1t has been expected that bail
would be requested in view of two
mistrials of DR.. Chapman, and one of
the grounds set forth by the defend
ants attorneys is that the state has
shown that it intends to try DR..
Chapman first, which deprives the
other defendants of a speedy trial
as guaranteed by the constitution.
Another allegation is that perfect ali
bis were presented by the defense.

AINSWORTH SCORES
POLITICAL PROHIBS
SAVANNAH MINISTER SAYS THAT
1T is AMUSING TO SEE THEM
BEATING TOM.TOMS.

SAVANNAH, Ga.-A scathing re-
buke for political prohibitionists"
was voiced last night by the Rev. DR..
w. N. Ainsworth, pastor of the Wes-
ley Monumental Methodist church.
When asked if he was going to At
lanta with the Savannah party to the
prohibition jubilee" DR.. Ainsworth
said:
mo, am not going. | am engag-
ed in a Bible conference with daily
services at the church right now, and
I cannot get away. Of course, I am
interested in what they do up there,
and l would like to see Georgia as dry
as Sahara, so far as alcoholic bever-
ages go, although I see no extraordi-
nary reason for an extraordinary ses-
sion of the general assembly at the
present time.
There is nothing to do that the
regular session would not do three
months hence" he continued, but
of course the politicians must have
their day.. 1t certainly is amusing to
see some men in Savannah and At
lanta and Macon beating the prohi-
bition tom-tom, men who could not
be pulled to prohibition meeting
with a cart rope ten years ago; and
now every little frog pond politician
lis mounting his tussock and chanting,
me, too, me, toor
1T is very funny to man who has
been watching the procession Ior
twenty-five years"

Championship Events at Penn.

PHILADELPHIA. Pa. April 4-The
final grouping for the championship and
class races at the relay carnival to be
held under the auspices of the University
of Pennsylvania on April y and IS was
announced today. Although the number
OF entries exceeds any list in the history
Of the meet. it was possible to arrange
the classes so that the same number of
races viii be held as last year. This was
due to the fact that Syracuse, Holy Cross
Pennsylvania State and other colleges
heretofore entered in the class r one-mle
relay have decided to go into the big
championship events with Yale, Harvard,
Princeton, Cornell. Dartmouth Michigan,
Chicago. Illinois, Missouri. Wisconsin,
NCtre Dame. Purdue. Columbia Kansas
Indiana, Nebraska. Grinnell and Penn
syIvania. Many OF these institutions
have several teams in the various events.

catholic University lost to Amherst yes
terday in game which was purely an
uphill fight for the local team. The
brooklanders counted heavily after Am
herst nad obtained a good lead, but could
not develop quite enough offensive
strength to win. Amherst counted three
tlmes IN the fourth. five times in the
nfth. and once in the sixth. The five runs
IN the NTH inning came as a result of
clean hitting against Jacksons delivery
visitors in that period placed the north
erhers away ahead of Charley Moran's
combination. However, in their half of
the same inning the Brooklanders got
BACK three of the runs and scored twice
IN each OF the sixth and seventh innings

sixth was the result of pass to Wild

The hitting of the two teams was
about even, though c. L. did not bunch

Amherst did in the fifth. Amherst got

WAR BOOMS PYRITES TRADE.
Several Schooners Chartered for
Service From AQUA Creek,
Saturday, . PM

Prospects of a war with Germany has
given a great impetus to shipments Of
pyrites from the mines of that ore
along the Potomac to sulphurio acid
making plants at Baltimore and else
where. Within the past day or two
the schooners Ruth Decker. Centurian,
Majestic and Edith Marcy have beer
chartered to load full cargoes of that
material at Cole Landing. on Aqua
creek, Va. for the Baltimore plants.
These vessels are lying here and will
leave today or tomorrow for their load
ing point to take cargoes aboard.
The pyrites mine from which the ma
teriai viii come is located in Stafford
county, Va, and it is brought to the
creek on narrow gauge railroad. The
mine had been closed down for several
years. and it was only recently that
operations We're resumed. The pyriteS
is used in the manufacture of sulphuric
acid. which is one of the constituents
of smokeless powder. 1t is stated that
other vessels will be chartered to move
the stuff, and that large quantities
Will be shipped at once to the acid

Western easily won ball game from
the Georgetown freshman team yester-
day, the score being 6 to 2. Bryan
Morse, coach of the Red and White, is
much concerned with his pitching staff
and feels that he will turn out a COM
petent aggregation provided he can de-
velop a good hurler. The Red and White
players are hitting the ball well, and
their fielding is up to the standard. The
team, as a whole. is not made up of near
as good material, apparently. as that of
last season, but it seems to have the
faculty for winnin ggames, if its work
in practice contests is to be taken as a
criterion.
Princeton's base ball team seems to be
weaker than for several seasons. 1t has
lost three straight games to minor col
leses. Seton Hall. Villanova and Holy
Cross having won the victories. 1t is
mighty unusual for Tiger nine to be
treated to three straight defeats by
small colleges at the beginning of its

BY all reports. Princeton will have its
work cut out for 1t in the series with
Yale. The Dark Blue has one of the
greatest diamond combinations in years,
according to one of the students there.
Those in close touch with Yale athletics
believe that the team is due to make a
cleanup.
