LIONS TOOK N. w. A.
TO CLEANING FRIDAY

In the twilight league ball game
Friday evening between the Lions and
M. w. A. teams it looked like a walk
the first half of the fifth inning when
the score stood so. The Lions how
ever were determined not to get
knocked out OF the ring without a
struggle and started right in the
fifth. The first man up got a safe one
and on a wild throw to first he went
to second. The shortstop for the
Woodmen made tumble on the next
mans hit and was slow in connecting
up on the third and fourth. This put
two men in and left two on bases and
no out Arthur came up, landed a safe
hit and scored two men SO the final
and nobody down.
Jarvis pitched very nice game for
the Woodmen with Beck as catcher
and Sharman and Parker did the hon
ors for the Lions.
The Rotarians surprised the fans as
well as themselves and the Elks when
they walked OFF with the honors of
the game Tuesday evening. The
Elks started off with good lead with
four runs in the first inning and two
in the second but the Rotarians pep
ped up and in the last inning cleaned
up to the tune of 7-6. Chuck Adams
was umpire.
The battery for the Elks was Samp-
son and Rausch and for the Rotarians
Raber and Fluallen. doc" however
got his finger hurt in the game and by
consent VIM. May served as a very
able catcher for the Rotarians.
This evening the American Legion
and Lions will battle five rounds and
a five inning contest between the Elks
and M. w. A. is scheduled for next
Tuesday evening, July 4th. There is
a world of fun for the fans at these
twilight games and everyone should
come out and root 70 his favorite
team.

GENOA CRISIS
IS REACHED
Action. as to Russia is Being
Taken at the Conference
Today

GENOA, May 6 (By The Associat-
ed Press) The most critical stage
of the international economic con-
ference was reached today. arising
through differences in the ranks of
the allied delegates over the memo
randum TO Russia and through the
attitude of the Russians. it was de-
clared this afternoon, by an Italian
Official who said:
This crisis is more grave than
the one the conference sustained af-
ter the signing of the Russo German
treaty on Easter Sunday"
Russia's reply to the allied memo
randum. expected TO be ready Sun
day or MoMnd,y will be a distinctly
conciliatory document not intended
to break off negoti2 tions, Foreign
Minister Tchitcherin said today. 1t
will firmly state Russia's inability
to comply with the terms offered"
The chief stumbling block was the
clause relating to treatment of for
eign property nationalized by the
soviet government.
Reuters correspondent here said
today:
THE final Russian decision Is not
expected before Monday or Tuesday.
Meanwhile it is rumored that Prime
Minister Lloyd George is ready and
that failing a favorable theme in the
situation as a result of NJ. Barthou's
return, Lloyd George will return 10
London forthwith"

NEGROES FOLLOW EACH
OTHER INTO FIRE IN
TEXAS TOWN TODAY
One Said to Have Confessed
to Killing White Girl--0ther
Two Plead Innocence

KIRvIN, Texas, May (By The
Associated Press).-Three negroes
were burned to death at the same
stake early today by mob of 500
men after alleged implications in the
criminal assault and murder of sew
enteen-year-o Eula Awsley, white
girl, whose mutilated body was
found near here Thursday night.
''Snap" Curry, the first negro
burned, was taken from the Free
Zone county Offices last night as he
was being conveyed from Worthan
NO some point west. 1t is alleged
hat he confessed to the mob that
he had assaulted and murdered the
girl and implicated j. HI. Varney and
Nose Jones. two negroes.
The mob diveste1 the sheriff of
his keys to the Free Zone county jail
where Jones and Varney were held
as suspects. The mob unlocked the
door and seized the two negroes. All
three negroes were rushed to Kirvin
the home of the girl and an iron
stake driven into the ground. Wood
was gathered and saturated with oil.
Curry was burned first, then Var
ney and Jones. The last two stead
fastly maintained their innocence.
Third degree methods failed to bring
confessions until they were finally
cremated on the strength of Curry's
testimony.
