Higgins Did Not Win. (Special to the Palladium.)

Indianapolis, December 24. Even

The Richmond Champs got it last

night at the Coliseum, where Little

Willie" wears his sailor collar. Mun-

cie did it. Sad but true. Phil Jason

was on the rush line for the visitors

in place of the contract jumper, Ed

die Higgins, and his playing was a revelation. The fans who saw the

game forgot that such a person as

Higgins ever existed. When Jason

naade his first goal the crowd, 1,150

strong, gave him a regular ovation.

The game was fast, interesting

and entertaining. Richmond's de

fense was a little off color, especially Doherty, but notwithstanding, the

only reason that Richmond was de

feated was because of the wonderful

playing of the Petty outfit. Holder-

ness was a barrier that could not be with Ilijrsrins in the lineun Indiana

tneet them at Yorkt own, just outside of Muncie. . The Muncie club owners got -wind of the engagement and tried to prevent the players from, keeping it. Higgins, however, managed to meet the Central League; men on schedule time. On account of the danger of personal violence Higgins did not stay in Yorktown any longer than to promise that he and Hart would come tq Indianapolis. Cohen and Bronson then went to Anderson and twice tried to get word to Higgins and Hart, but owing to interference by Mart Norton and Walter Petty, they were unsuccessful. They then went to Muncie and awaited the heme coming of the Muncie team, after the game at' Anderson. Higgins and Hart met them at the Kirby House, where they had a long talk. During the conference Lon and Walter Petty ascertained that a deal was on, and together with several Muncie fans, made several efforts to find Cohen and Bronson. The clerk at the hotel refused to tell the number of their room. "Brother" Ben Crose, of the Indianapolis Sentinel, had an article in his sheet last night that read like a description of a street fight or a

j hand-to-hand mixup at 203 Metre hill. The article made the wildest

yarns of Stanley Weyman or Anthony Hope appear insipid and as tame as a pink tea. It told how the angry citizens of Muncie chased the Indianapolis magnates around dark streets with clubs and loaded revolvers j of fast rides in closed carriages and secret conclaves in obscure places. Bobby Hart was asked last night if he would jump Muncie and he answered a most emphatic "No." However, Bobby may be stalling Higgins told the same story of undying loyalty to Muncie, then executed a kangaroo movement. It remains to be seen what the big fellow really has up his sleeve. Round number one is a matter of history. By Tuesday the jabs and counter jabs will be landing thick and fast. The league that developes the best staying qualities will take the money. It is a cinch that one or the other will take the count before the end of the season.

Three minutes after this Jason registered again on a lucky drive, the ball glancing off Doherty 's pads into the cage. Forty-nine seconds later Jason scored again on a pass off Hart between Doherty 's legs. The las score of th5 period was made by Bone on a beautiful angle shot. At the beginning of the second period the score stood 4 to 3 in Muncie 's favor. One minute and a half after the start of play Farrell tallied on an angle shot. Then Hart

GEORGE ADE

Will Not Enjoy His Christmas Dinner Today. Chicago, December 24. With an income Avhich is fast approaching $2,000 a week and a stomach ravaged with dyspepsia, the condition of George Ade) humorist, playwright, newspaper man, bears a remarkable similarity to that other unfortunate celebrity, John D. Rockefeller. When he a rived in Chicago from Xew York Friday he presented a most forlorn appearance. . Welcomed home by his friends, he smiled wanly. Pressed for the reasons, he said : "Oh, it's all right, boys. They say I am successful, but I don't be

lieve they know what success is.

"You notice my thinness? Well, I'll tell yon. I'm' off my feed. I've been fasting for nine days. Real fasting, you know. I don't take any nourishment excepting a little hot water when I get up in the morning. "The doctors said this was the only way to cure my dyspepsia. It's a pretty prospect, isn't it? Sunday's Christmas and I can't eat any turkey and cranberries. I can't eat anything. What's the use of $2,000 per Aveek?"

Arrested for Fighting. Patrolman Bundy early this morning arrested John Littiser and Charles Reagan on the charge of fighting. One of the men carried a revolver and a pair of knucks.

Neither of the men was badly hurt

in the fight, bet wen them, but" they

will both have the pleasure of eat

ing Christmas dinner furnished by

the city.

A Heavy Rain.

A, heavy rainfall took place early this morning. The sounds reminded one of early spring as the crash of thunder could be heard and then the

rain poured down in torrents. The

fall continued at intervals the great

er part of the early morning.
