ANDREW PONZI TO
BE HERE WEDNESDAY
Former Worlds Champion Pocket
Billiards Star Coming To
Center Sport Shop

Andrew Fonzi, former Worlds
Champion ut Pocket Billiards ard
holder of all time worlds record for
high runs in championship play, will,
be seen in this city on Wednesday,
May 25, at p. m. at Hoyle Center
Sport Shop.
The champion is scheduled to meet
the best Henderson player available
besides producing program of fancy
and trick shots.
Ponzi, who halls from Philadelphia,
Pa, is 20 years of age, and in true
Babe Ruth fashion was reared in ST.
Johns Orphan Home in South Phil
adelphia. Anyone who witnessed his
record breaking run of 1853 balls a

pion, would state that Ponzi had re-
markable eyesight; and little could
they believe that at the age of eight
years he was totally blind and re-
manned in total darkness for three
years, when a very delicate surgical!
operation restored his eyesight
The little italian, ever alert, is con
coded to be the fastest player in tn.
game today. He has been known t.
run one hundred balls in the fast time
of twenty minutes, and billiard ex-
perts declare him to be the greatest
player developed since the days OF

difficult to picture the strong men of
an administration which has made

Then, too, there's more than sus-

that will be the situation four years
hence.
The case of Mr.. Maxwell is quite
different. The acknowledged master
of the States financial affairs has
been in the service of North Carolina
for forty years. twenty-eight of them
in a full time capacity. He started as
clerk in the State Senate, went up
to a minor position with the old Cor
poration Commission and has risen
through sheer merit to his present
post as boss of the ail-irportant Re-
venue Department.
The true tip-off to his outstanding
ability in his chosen field is the fact
that in 1882 the rival who defeated
him for the gubernatorial nomination
kept him in office all through his adj
ministration. His independence was il
Illustrated during the Morrison regime
when he fatty contradicted his chiefs
statement that the State had a S.
100000 surplus and then proved that
instead there was an $8,0O0,000 deficit.
From the administration point of
view, he would seem to be complete
ly available" In the 1886 guberna-
torial campaign his logical and fac
tual attack on the tax policies of DR..
Ralph w. Mcdonald is regarded by
many as the turning point of that
over-heated battle of the ms and the
Ants. In the 1887 General Assembly
he was commander-in-chief of the
field forces which wrote a revenue
bill so identical with that desired by
the governor as to be indistinguish
able.
The 1882 race showed he has vote
getting ability, only 1000 votes keep
ing him out of the second primary.
His greatest handicap is a lack Of
even a semblance of the mass appeal
and handshaking ability possessed in
such great gobs by Senator Bcfo Rey
holds and Dick Fountain for example.
The third triumvir, Mr.. Broughton,
is by no means as often in the public
eye One of the States ablest attor-
neys, he spends most of his time tend
ing to his own business, which is
large and important; though of recent
months he hasn't overlooked a single
opportunity to make speech-a sure
symptom Of political aspirations.
Regular all the way, influential in
legal and church circles, and unhandi
capped by the enemies every office
holder is bound to make, Mr.. Brough-
ton must be considered in any esti-
mate of the situation.

Fire Ball i Pitcher Gives
Henderson 81 Verdict
Over Louisburg

Don Peasants, fire ball pitcher,
turned in one sof his best pitching
performances yesterday afternoon
when he hurled the All-Stars to
to 2 victory over Louisburg at Pine
Park before one of the largest
crowds seen at the field this season.
Peasants struck out IA men, eight
of them coming in the first three in
nings of the game.
Fancy fielding on the part of Hoyle,
who ran back in deep center to take
Dickens lick with a one hand stab,
just as the ball seemed bound for a
home run. Kelly and Terrell also
turned in fine fielding.
Henderson broke the scoring ice in
the second inning. Hoyle smashed
one of Dixons fast balls into center
for three bases, and trotted home
when Woodlief flew out to center
In the fourth, Henderson added an
other when Hamm was safe on an err
ror, Terrell failed in his sacrifice at
tempt, and then doubled to left. Hoyle
walked to fill the bases, and Wood
lief singled to short left to score
Hamm.
The All-Stars final tally came in
the seventh when Scoggins singled
and stole second and scored on
Harpers single to right.
Louisburg scored in the final two
frames. In the eighth, ellis walked
and scored on Dixon's double to right.
In the ninth, Lamm doubled and came
home when Brantley singled. Pleas
ants bore down on the next two bat
tiers, Dixon and Tucker, to strike them
out and ended the ball game

Paul Bunyan's Ry. Station Discovered
by Small Boy on His Visit to London

The sort of railway station that
only Paul Bunyar could have built
was described recently by Bridg-
north small boy who visited London
and wrote about it to his envious
smaller brother at home, according
to a Bridgnorth, England, CORE
spondent in the Philadelphia Inquir-
er. Written in all seriousness, the
letter, which came into the posses
sion of c. N. Turner, of the Asso-
ciated British and Irish railways,
follows:
''The sight of Paddington station
is really beyond description. The
roof is practically invisible, being
$500 feet above the platforms, air.
planes circling beneath it all day.
The roof is made of glass and re-
quires 5000 men to clean it once
weekly in an airship.
"There are so many platforms
that it is totally impossible to count
them-the length Of them is quite
five miles. There are motor buses
to take passengers from one end of
platform to the other; each bus
holds 5000 people. A

train consists of 1900 coaches and
requires 20 engines to pull it. The
trains are of the corridor type and
