LETHAL GAS LAW ATTACKED

In an opening brief in the case of
Hughie Sing and Gee Jon. Chinese,
who are under sentence TO die by
lethal gas for the murder OF another
Chinese at Nina, attorney Frame and
Raietto and Thomas d. Salter
claimed twenty errors in the proceed
ings in the case and said that the
Nevada lethal gas law is unconstitu-
tional under Nevada and United
States Constitutions because the meth
cd for carrying out the sentence is
not definite and because the sentence
consists OF cruel and unusual punish
ment.
Errors are claimed to have been
committed by the trial Judge, ]. En-
NETT Walsh OF Mineral county, in de-
nying the demand of the defendants
for separate trials, in the admission Of
an alleged confession of Hughie Sing
as evidence, in the admission of a pis.
toll diagram and other exhibits as
evidence. and in the admission of a
reference by the district attorney to
tong wars.
In attacking the lethal gas law, the
attorneys hold that it does not definite
~ provide anything as to the mode.
means or exact kind Of iethal gas
which is to be used and declare it is
indefinite and uncertain as to the
formula to be employed.
The warden of the state prison,
they state, would be allowed to de-
termine the exact kind of lethal gas

Billy Exams SAYS
The Fast Ban


A fast ball is pitchers great
est asset, an asset which nearly
every famous hurler has possess
ed at the height of his career.
Fifteen years ago Walter john
son the speed king" had a habit
Of pitching game after game, rely
ing entirely on his fast ball.
There were two reasons why he
did this. He hadn't a curve in his
repertory. Better yet, his fast bali
was almost unhittable.
why throw anything else
when they can't see or hit the fast
ones?" was the logic on which
Charley Sweet, who caught john
son, played the game.
Not until recently have 1 seen a
pitcher work an entire major
league game in which he used a
fast ball exclusively.

This Afternoon.


The Fairmont High School foot.
ball gridders will hold their first
scrimmage practice at South Side
Park this afternoon according Is
an announcement made yesterday
afternoon by Coach Frank Ice Of
the West Side players. Coach Ice
decided on starting scrimmage
one day earlier than he previously
announced when he found that
all OF the candidates were In such
good physical condition.

SO, far this season on account Of
injuries were at the park yester.
dya afternoon and took In all Of
the work done by members OF tho
squad: Callahan is suffering from
a carbuncle on his right leg while
Mitchie is nursing a bad hip,
which he injured while taking
part in an informal practice ses-
sion one day last week.
These two players, however will
be able to be out early next. week
and as they are old men having
had considerable experience IN
past years and are in good ply.
steal condition the lack Of the
early work will not handicap them
very much.
Coach, Ice is well pleased with
the showing being made by all the
members OF his squad but. the
work Of the following players is
especially pleasing to him, Cap.
tain Reich, Parrish. Abbott.
Mooney, Lafterty, Connors, Ross,
Hall, Jobes Romino, Esketh. Gar
rett Taylor, Cole, Straight.
Steele, Byrne, Nichols, Crowl,
Dean, Hawkins, Tork Leonard,
Wright. sapp, Stanley Dunsmore
and Knight.
Coach Frank Ice put his squad
through a fight signal drill yester-
day evening he had three fun
teams running the ball up and
down the field. the boys showed
lots OF pep, and Coach Ice WIS
well pleased with the way the
boys handled the ball. On the
first team picked last night, Hall
and CroWl was at ends. Straight
and Dean were at tackles, while
Garrett and Nichols were ut
guard. Cole conferred the ball,
while Lafferty called signals.
Capt. Reich and Parrish were at
halves, while Mooney was placed
at full. This team showed plenty
Of life during the signal practice.
Running punts and passes took
up the rest Of the afternoons
workout.

has gone to Wesleyan as assistant.
Stobbs has six or seven veterans
around whom he can build a team
and In addition should acquire
some fine new material from
Weddings incoming class. The
team should be fully up to last
years standard and willAbe a close
contender In the state race. Hun
1ngton has now coach but most
OF It's last years players and the
combination should Ferve to give
the Red and Blue as good II not<a
better team than last year. Big
Ben Wookey and others are avail
able and should help the new men
tor get toehold. Elkins high
which made such a strong showing
last year, has lost some Of its men
by graduation, most of them being
D. and E. acquisitions. Its team,
however, should equal last Years
with Brown and other stars on
hand. Warrington lost Arnett
and one or two other men who
have been prominent in its ac-
eomplishments of the last few
years.
One thing is certain-interest
In the scholastic grid playing has
never been keener than this year
and all Of the schools should enjoy
good seasons from every stand.

Pitt

W1NDBER, Pa. Sept. IA
few days ago 1t was limited that
Coach Glenn Warner might spring
surprise or two when 1t came to
choosing his lineup for the sea
sons opening football game be-
tween the University Of Pittsburgh
Panthers and the University OF
Cincinnati, at the Ohio City, Sat
urday, September 80.
The chances are that one Of
these surprises will be his selec.
;tion OF a center man. 1t begins to
look more and more as If Tiny
Miller, the gigantic lineman,
weighing 230 pounds, will be In
the center OF the line against
George McLaren's huskies.
OF course, there is nothing Ger.
tain about 1t as yet bVt Warner
has been using him at center on
his first team in the scrlmmages
this week, and he has been show.
ing up well. II he keeps up his
good work, he win likely get the
inaugural assignment.
Miller originally weighed ats
pounds when Warner discovered
him in school and told him 10
come out and try for the team. He
had never played any football, and
was US green as grass. Big fell
lows always appeal to Warner,
however, and the veteran coach
i took him in hand. and, besides
teaching him football, suggested
some rules Of diet which have
been followed, and have resulted
In Miller dropping 40 pounds Of
surplus fat. He now tips the beam
at 230 and is as hard as any man
on the squad.
He Is going well in the scrim-
IMAGES, passes the ball well, and
looks like real varsity class. As
Warner always uses a rowing cen
ter, he is figuring on Jack Sack for
that berth on defense, with Miller
as offensive center.
The Panthers are tearing into
their work this week with more
vim than was shown last week,
The weather Is more to their llk-
ing now, and the bracing atmos-
phere makes the, boys feel like
doing real work. They are making
progress. and with another week
here, ought to be in good trim for
the hard tests ahead of them. Just
a little more than a week remains
OF the stay at Camp Hamilton, and
then the boys will so back to
Pittsburgh to take up their schol-
astic duties at the university.

GLASS. TEAMS TO
PLAYTNO.GAMES

The Heisy Glass Co., baseball
team Of Newark, Ohio, champions
Of that city will play the Monon-
gah Glass Co., team Of this city
two games over the weekend In |
stead Of one as was previously an
nounced. The first game will be +!
played at $3.50 o'clock Saturday
afternoon at South Side Park and
the second will be played at thel
same hour Sunday afternoon at
Traction Park.
This season the Heisy team Is
the undisputed champions OF the
city Of Newark. So far this sea-
son the Ohio team has met and
defeated some Of the best semi
professional teams in that section
of Ohio. Noticing the wonderful
record the local glass company
team was making the manager Of
the Heisy team issued a challenge
through the columns of the Flint
Glass Workers Magazine for a.
three game series with the locals
for the championship Of this state
and Ohio Of the Glass workers
teams. y
The management Of the local
team Immediately accepted the
challenge and the first two games
Of the series will,be played In this
county. This should give the local
players the edge Of the battle and
IL the local players are in top form
they might be able to settle the
series by winning both Of the
games on the home grounds and
thereby cinch the championship
without going to the Ohio city for
a game.
Chuck Trader of Everson will
work in the first game for the
Classics and II the big boy is in
form he should win his game. The
local team will use practically the
same lineup that 1t has been play
ing all season. A number of fast
college players are in the lineup Of
the Ohio team and they have been
playing snappy b! and OF ball

MarshaI's Report Shows That
During Past Month 10 Diff

Toledo merchants are again
getting careless about leaving
their places Of business open, AZ
cording to a report submitted to
the city dads at their melting Mon
day evening by night Marshal
Schenek. The following places
of business were found open dur
ing the month:
August 1st--McCallou' Planning Mill
August 6th--Arthur Nye's, Glider,

August 24-Bateman's Furniture

August 2S-JJudge James office.
August 30-Bateman's
The report also embodied the fact
that business men as whole, are
keeping trash and dirt in front Of their
places 70 business we'll cleaned up.
On the resignation of Mr.. Schenck
as. watchman, Fred Taylor was ap-
pointed to fill the facancy.
1t Is to be regretted that few
business men hafe refused to stand
their share Of the burden of paying the
night watChman's salary, and the bur
den will necessarily fall upon the re-
mainder. There is no question that a
night watchman Is absolutely neces
sary to the protection Of the business
district not only from burgu,ars and
carelessness but also from fire. and
all should be willing to stand his pro-
'ortionate share in order that the
'gatchman might be retained.
