CLAIMS S~ELF-DEFENsE
Morris Asserts Magistrate Sullivan
Seemed to Reach for Gun,

Charlottesville, Va, June ~
Placed on the stand yesterday in
his own behalf Edgar Morris con-
sumed nearly three hours in present
ing his explanations and justitca-
ton for taking the life of Magls-
trate Sullivan at Standardsville last
March, the gist of which was that
when he went into the Greene
county courthouse, where his mis-
demeanor case was being settled by
his father and counsel, Sullivan
dropped a law book he was examin-
ing, when he saw him there and
seemed to reach for his gun. He got
in six shots before Sullivan could
act. Morris then explained he fired
SO quickly because the dead justice
had made threats against him and
he feared for his life.
Morris explained his escape by
saying that he did not intend to go
to prison. On cross-examinaton ne
seemed to develop a change OF attl-
tude as well as memory. The net
result was that the whole thing
rested on whether he could support

THEN AND NOW

Monday. July IA, will be celebra-
ted as "Bastile Day" in France. The
occasion will be honored in the Uni
ted States and other countries. .
The destruction of the Bastile,
that gloomy structure On the
Seine, was one of the first acts of
the French Revolution. At the in
stance of Madame Pompadour peo-
pie who had incurred the displeasure
of this notorious mi were in
generated in. this prison where they
finally paid the debt of nature. La
tude spent &~hirry-six years in the
Bastile for having had the audacity
to commit a thoughtless act which
displeased Pompadour.
July Ii fell on Sunday last year.
The day was commentaries
throughout the United States, es-
pecially in churches, where sermons
appropriate to the occasion We're de-
Tweed.
In some houses of worship in
Alexandria the tri-color flag futters
in front of the organs, from which
the notes of the "Maseillaise" were
waited. At that time conditions
were by no means favorable to the
allies. The lasttGerman drive had
not spent itself, and the liberty-lov-
ing world was a%pprehensive.
Conditions have materially changed
since that long to be remembered
Sunday morning, and this year, when
bands discourse the 'fMarseillaise,"
they will send notes of JOY through
out other countries as well as
France.
Many persons enormously suppose
that the French national hymn was
an outgrowth of the French Revolu-
ton and to its birth in Marseilles.
1t was conceived in Strassburg when
France was mcnaced by Austria.

This year is the first time that Phoe- nix has been included on the itinerary and the fact that it has been now, is ample proof of the city's growing i'm portance.

AMERICAN LEAGUE HOLDS STORMY MEET--- FIVE NEW DIRECTORS ARE ELECTED.
Insurgents" Rested at Every Turn---Lose Grip on Directorate---Navin of Detroit lsNeW Vice-P -Presidnt- ---154-G Game Sched- ule Favored for 1920

The confusion was followed by what one of the outer congregation termed as "ominous calm" and when the ses- sion finally ended President Johnson was one of the first to leave and he was quickly followed by a majority of his supporters. The socalled in surgents' remained for further con sultation with the attorneys. They re- fused to make any general statement other than to say that the fight would be continued and that Presi- cent Johnson had been served with summons in three new legal actions. While no authoritative outline of these actions could be gained it was understood that they will involve mat ters referring to the legality of John sons long term contract, damages to the New York club and demand for legal fees in connection with a spe- cial investigation regarding an Amer ican league telegraph service contract.
 During the meeting Connie Mack of the Philadelphia club moved that resolution be adopted providing for fine of 5000 for any club which tam- pered with any player the property of another club of the league. This proposition was tabled for a year.
 Old Directors Oppose Ban
 The resolutions adopted by the out going board of directors referred gen erally to the Carl Mays case, the cause of the split in the league ranks, and the duties and action of Johnson as president. They were 12 in number adopted that they might became a matter of record for future action in or out of court. In part they charge an invasion of the powers of the board of directors, wrongful use of umpire's information, disregarding of directors resolutions, refusal to aid in the selec- tion of a new chairman of the national | commission, voting the kind of his employment by the league, and declar- ing his contract of 1910, calling for a salary of $3O,000 per year for 20 years as president of the league a violation of the constitution and ordering that no league. funds be used for the pur- pose of such payments or any expenses l incurred by said Johnson.
 | Before the national league club own
 CTS concluded their meeting today Chairman August Hermann of the National commission, stated that he
 was willing to resign from that posi- tion which he has held for severa
 years.

GRANDMA NEVERL LET
 HER HAIR GET GRAY
She Kept Her Locks Dark and Glossy With Sage Tea and Sulphur

When you darken your hair with Sage Tea and Sulphur, no one can tell, because it's done so naturally, so evenly. Preparing this mixture, though, at home is mussy and troublesome. At little cost you can buy at any drug store the ready to-use preparation, improved by the addition of other ingredients called "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com pound" You just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time. By morning all gray hair disappears, and. after an- other application or two, your hair becomes beautifully darkened. glos- sy and lilxuriant.
 Gray, faded hair, though no dis grace, is a sign of old age, and as we all desire youthful and attrac- tive appearance. get busy at once with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound and look years younger.

NEW YORK. Dec. 1O.-American league baseball club owners tlanked by squad of attorneys, battled for some hours today in their annual meeting and when the session ended President B. E.

The Cleveland, St. Louis, Philadelphia, Washington and Detroit clubs voting in the affirmative and the Boston, Chicago and New York clubs against. A resolution to play a sched- ale of 154 games in 1920 was virtually all the baseball business transacted from the standpoint of the average fol- lower of the game.

 Those members present then pro .ceeded to adopt a number of resolu- ltlons which charged Johnson with ex- iceeding his duties as an employe o lthe league.
 The meeting of the league as ( whole followed immediately, and dur. ling the first half hour the conferenc, Twas in such an uproar that the com lmotion was plainly audible in the ho ltel corridors adjoining the meeting srooms, while from adjacent quarter lawyers and subpoena servers cam iand went like messengers from staf headquarters during a battle.
