ROUT WALTERS KENNEY'S PLEA TO HOME BOYS Richmond's Ancient and Worthy Foe, New Castle, Brings Former Locals For Sunday's Duel. SUNDAY'S GAME. Newcastle. Richmond. Lorand, cf...

Richmond's ancient foe. the New Castle aggregation, headed by Tommy Ritter will flock into town early tomorrow morning in preparation for the tussle with Dick Kenney's fast going team. Both squads are members of the recently organized Indiana State League and a hot battle should result. Tommy has some sluggers of note on his team and promises to give hard working and capable Lou Thomas a merry go. Opposed to Lou on the mound will be Babe Walters who does not carry the best of feelings for the Richmond club and he will work his head off to show the home crowd just how good he is. From the way the locals batted them out last Sunday it appears as though Babe will have his hands full and will have to dish up something else besides the high fast one which is Babe's favorite when his arm is in the right condition. The visitors will carry another old Richmond player, Miller, who will handle the backstopping job for them. Carl was considered a pretty fair receiver when with the club a few years ago but was a little weak with the willow. It is said, however, that he is hitting them harder and better than ever this year. Chase, their first sacker, has been seen here before and although not a brother of Hal Chase is considered some first sacker having a reach a mile long. Game called at 2:30 oclock. BANKERS DROP BEFORE SHOOTS OF ONE OTTEN K. of C.'s, 9; Bankers. 5. Those bankers were unable to count their change fast enough last night in their game of baseball staged at the Athletic Park with the result that the Knights walked away with the large end of a 9 to 3 count. The bankers were evidently figuring up just how each play should be made with the result that while they were compounding the question, the game filtered through their generally reliable fingers. Ollie Otten with his roundhouse was complete master of the ceremonies while it lasted having the bankers dodging perfect strikes and swinging in vain at the bad ones. Ollie had it all figured out before the game started and worked on the above plans. "Pop" Hadley was right there on the keystone sack for the bankers and but for his sterling work his team would have been beaten to a frazzle, Eddie Crawford, not the same that plays with Detroit but, nevertheless, a star for the Bankers also came in for his share of the glory by capturing two popups in left field.

The Peugeot and Maxwell teams in the next Indianapolis 500-mile race are at swords' points as the result of Ray Harroun's announcement that he intends to court disqualification of his Harroun special, which is really a Maxwell, under the rule that 'only three cars of any one make may start in any i contest. The Peugeot crowd claims Harroun's action is aimed directly at Bob Burman, who entered a rebuilt Peugeot in the race, on top of the regular Peugeot trio, under the name of Burman special. To remove any doubt as to the identity of his car, Bob has rechristened the vehicle "Burman-Peugeot." the motor of the machine is entirely ned, he says, but ufor the crankcase, having been built in Los Angeles under his own supervision, and the car is, therefore, no longer a Peugeot, but a machine practically his own.

S. A. L. VOTES TO TURN DOWN N. A BERTH League Will Offer New Paris and Muncie Teams Book ings for Dates Late in the Season.

One of the first acts of the S. A. L. executive last night was the appointing of Howard Brooks as official score keeper to take place of Frank Duning. The league sent a vote of thanks to Mr. Cooper for the use of his band on opening day, and another to the auto owners who loaned their machines for the parade. They decided unanimously that the fifteen-man limit be in effect at 12:00 o'clock. May 15. . . The program for Decoration Day will include a seven-inning game to begin promptly at 1:00 o'clock between the A. S. M. and Dennis-Wood-worth teams. The field meet will follow; long distance throwing (distance to count where ball first touches ground after leaving the entry's hand); fungo hitting; 100-yard dash; circling the bases; accurate throwing. A nine-inning game will follow this, the Natcos and Advance-Hill being the opponents. All entries for the field meet shall be in the hands of the president not later than Monday, May 24. But one man from a team will be eligible to participate in an event. The president was empowered to arrange for the printing of tickets and distribution and will have them ready about the middle of next week. Two thousand will be ordered in 500 lots each 500 to be of different color. Anthony Hafner was officially registered with the A. S. M. outfit. Dennis and Woodworth registered Clarence Porter, Semler no wattending school at Purdue, Doc Winsett. manager of last year's Dille-McGuire's, Bob Carvey and Harold Brown. The directors voted not to affiliate with the National Amateur Baseball association as they considered it a too large a proposition to undertake. The league will get in touch with New Paris offering them a proposition on playing one of the teams of the S. A. L. June 11. Herbert Puckett was also instructed to arrange an intercity game with the City League of Muncie for a game later in the season to take place at the Athletic park. COUNTY GAME BODY CALLS 1915 MEETING The Wayne County Fish and Game association will hold their annual meeting Monday evening, May 10, at 7:30 o'clock in the Commercial club rooms. The Morton Lake officials have been negotiating with the Fish and Game association giving the latter charge of the lake. This matter will be discussed at the meeting Monday night. The association is also trying to secure the George Knollenberg pond for an extra spawning pond providing satisfactory arrangements can be made with the present lease holders. More bass has been caught this year than in the last ten years, a fact attributed to the stocking of the streams by the association. TO PLAY OXFORD New Paris has as its opponent tomorrow the strong Dayton Oxford team which is cutting quite a swath in the Semi-Pro ranks of the Ohio teams this season. The regular New Paris battery will work, Roop serving them up with Hampton receiving. PLAY SECOND GAME The K. of C. league plays the second round of games tomorrow morning at Athletic Park the first game to be called promptly at 9:00 o'clock.

L. team journeys to Somervllle tomorrow where the boys tackle the strong team of that place. Sauters who formerly twirled for the Cincinnati Shamrocks will do the twirling for the Ohio team and the Vigrans will surely have to step lively to get by with the game. Albright who will be remembered as having played with the old Murray team and the Y. M. C. A. team in the old City league played third base for the Sommerville aggregation. SEEDERS WILL PLAY. The first S. A. L. team to get a whack at an out of town aggregation will be the team which is leading the league on June 5. The next game will go to the team which is next highest up. 300 PERSONS ENJOY GARFIELD RECEPTION Approximately three hundred persons were present at the Garfield school last night to hear the music ! and speeches which formed the proi gram during the reception by the i Eight A class in honor of the parents and the student body. Principal Pickell of the high school, delivered the address, explaining the work necessary on the part of the students in assuming high school studies. The musical numbers consisted of a piano solo by Harold Latta, a vocal solo by Mozell Hunter, a piano solo by Lois Johanning, a violin solo by Walter Anderson, chorus singing by the boys of the Eight A class and orchestra selections. Fishermen in Ireland who use a salmon rod and line must pay a license duty of $5.

Cherishes Old Paper Printed in Jan.,. 1800

As long as we can maintain with harmony and affection, the honor of our country consistently with its peace, externally and internally, while that is attainable, or in war, when that becomes necessary assert its real independence and sovereignty and support the constitutional energies and dignity of its government we may be perfectly sure under the smiles of Divine Providence, that we shall effectually promote and extend our national interests and happiness." The foregoing paragraph is the body of the first speech John Adams made to the American congress, December 10, 1799, after he was elected president of the United States. It. was picked from the Ulster County Gazette, dated January 4, 1800, by M. P. Simison, 304 North D street, owner of what is believed to be the oldest newspaper in existence in Richmond. Served During War., Mr. Simison has owned the paper three years. It was given to him after the death of Colonel David Putman at Palestine, O. Colonel Putman served in the civil war as an officer in the One Hundred and Fifty-second Ohio Volunteers. The paper was published in Kingston, Ulster county. New York, by Samuel Freer & Son, every Saturday. It is almost without typographical errors and is neatly printed on good quality of paper. It is a four-page, four-column paper, about eighteen inches in length. An interesting comparison of the papers of more than a century ago and modern newspapers is gained by an examination of the war news from Europe. Napoleon was then fighting with Berthier, near Zurich. The latest news received on January 4, was from London, Paris and Hamburg mails of October 20, and many of the dispatches in the foreign newspapers were dated September 10 or earlier, the news reaching this country four months after the battles occurred. Ships Brought Details. The following is a paragraph dated London, October 20, 1799: "The Hamburg mail, due on Sunday, arrived Friday and brings numerous details of the actions fought in Switzerland, by which it appears that the French Telepraphe and other accounts of these desperate conflicts are fallacious the Imperialists instead of 19,000 men have lost not more than 3,000. The allies have defeated the French ner Shaffhausen, where the corps of Conde having going the arch duke his royal highness was on the second, marching to sustain Suwarrow. 'October 19. Bonaparte and Berthier are now in France, at the very moment when the fame of their triumphs at Paris they disembarked at CROWDS ENJOY IDEAL WEATHER FOR SHOW DAY The big circus is here. Robinson's Famous Shows, with all its gleam, glitter and gold has invaded the city and promises to be the Mecca for thousands of men, women and children whose hearts are young for the day. Early this morning with the rising of the sun into a cloudless sky, the various sections of the circus arrived over the Pennsylvania railroad, unloading at Fourteenth street. A large crowd of spectators watched the work of unloading and followed the circus men to the grounds on Nineteenth street. The first section brought the commissary department. After the first section came the circus special containing the wild animals and baggage equipment. The streets were thronged with people at ten o'clock this morning when the parade was held. It consisted of a long line of fantastic finery, bands, ponderous elephants, camels, open dens of wild beasts and show horses. The clowns occupied their usual, prominent place. The performance this afternoon 'began at two o'clock and the doors were opened an hour earlier to permit the spectators to view the erection of wild animals in the menagerie. A concert of a half hour was given for thirty minutes prior to the opening of the program by Richard Master's Royal Military band. Scores of people from all parts of the country came to Richmond this

JRANrLQ. MEMKE

NEW YORK, May 7. Umpire baiting, the biggest blot on the escutcheon of baseball, could be eliminated if the club owners assessed a heavy fine on every man other than the manager or fired or fired captain who attempted to argue with the arbitrators. And the magnates should fine the manager or the captain in case his language or conduct became such that the umpire felt it necessary to chase him from the field. Umpires are human beings. They aren't dogs. The trouble is that the players think they can call the umpires any and all the foul names that their tongues can form. The practice of umpire baiting besmirshes America's national game and it should be stopped. Baiting Hurts Game. Umpire baiting is a detriment to the game and always has been. But it never will stop until club presidents co-operate with league presidents and fine the players for their disgraceful conduct. The most vulnerable part of a player is his pay envelope. If he's swatted there a few times for sums ranging from $25 to $100 it is a cinch

Frejusm. It appears that he was afraid of being taken by the English had he attempted to land at Toulon, and In consequence preferred landing at Jre-

jus. "Straasburgh, October 9. Official bulletins of the general staff of the army: "The army of the Rhine has retaken Manheim and Frankfort. The enemy have lost 300 men. Ten thousand peasants who arose in a mass have thrown down their arms. Among the prisoners is a whole company of Cossacks. We once more are in possession of the whole line of Mentz, Manheim and Frankfort." The United States was then mourning the loss of General George Washington, and two pages of the Ulster County Gazette are blacked with inverted column rules. A dispatch headed: "Washington Entombed," from Georgetown, December 20, 199, follows Tells Story of Death. "On Wednesday last the mortal part of Washington, the Great, the Father of His Country and the Friends of Man, was consigned to the tomb with solemn honors and funeral pomp." The dispatch continues, describing the feelings of the crowd, the movement of processions and the funeral ceremonies. Mr. Simison also cherishes a piece of Confederate script for 10 cents, issued by the Western & Atlantic railroad in 1862, bearing the signature of I. T. Rowland, superintendent, and authorizing the bearer to exchange it and sufficient other script for a $5 Confederate bank note. The piece of war money says it can be used for the payment of taxes. Owing to lack of white paper, the piece of money was printed on the blank side of some old bonds. The marriage license of the grand parents of Mr. Simison, issued in Darke county in 1823 by County Clerk E. Morris, is a time-stained piece of paper. It was written out in longhand. Its text follows: "The State of Ohio, Darke County: "To any persons legally authorized to solemnize marriage in the county aforesaid : "These are to license you to join together as husband and wife in the holy estate matrimony Mr. William Vanve and Miss Rebecca Mills, both of this county, and for so doing this shall be your sufficient warrant. "In testimony whereof, I, Eastin Morris, clerk of the court of common pleas, have herewith set my hand and seal of office at Greenville, the 14th day of March 1823. "E. Morris, Clerk. "Married on the 14th of March, 1823, United States of America." WOMAN WITH CHILD PERISH IN LIFEBOAT QUEENSTOWN. May 8. According to most of the survivors, the Lusitania sank within thirty minutes after she was torpedoed. Some say they saw the periscope of a submarine after they had taken to the boats. The Lusitania went down by the head, causing a great suction that pulled down several boats still alongside her as she plunged. Most of the occupants were drowned. Among the victims was a woman with a little baby. She was sitting opposite the ship's doctor at luncheon when the shock came. The doctor told her to run on deck as quickly as she could and she did so, taking to ope of the boats. This was pulling away as the Lusitania took her final plunge. The boat was drawn down and more than a score drowned. WOMEN HYSTERICAL. LONDON. May S. Some of the Lusitania passengers were killed outright by the explosion of the German torpedo, declared survivors who were taken into Queenstown by the Stormcock. Among the survivors were frantic women, brought to the verge of madness by the horror of the scenes through which they had just passed. morning and were in attendance with thousands of others who were present at the performance this afternoon. The circus carried its usual number oi feature acts. Another performance will be given at eight o'clock tonight and the doors and the menagerie will be open at seven o'cIock. BUDGE bet that he will conduct himself with a certain amount of decency in the future. What utter folly it is for a player to use abusive language toward an umpire in an effort to get him to change his verdict on a play! The umpires are not infallible, but they work on the theory that they are, and not once in a thousand times do they reverse a decision. The ball player knows this and he knows that the best he ever gets in an argument with an umpire is the worst of it. Yet hardly a game is played in the big or little leagues that some of the players do not upbraid an umpire for his rulings. Probably the chronic umpire-baiters kick up the fuss in an effort to make a grand-stand play in a foolish effort to shov the fans that they have some of this so-called "pep" and "fighting qualities." The play to the grandstand, however, is a failure. The spectators don't consider umpirebaiting anything other than a boob exhibition on the part of the player and further proof that the player should have his head examined.

Iinrn And reared in Webster, was brought to Richmond four years ago by her husband, Everett Taylor, immediately after their marriage. After 6he reached here, she discovered the vicissitude's of married life on a chauffeur's uncertain salary. Today Judge Comstock granted her a divorce and the custody of her two-year-old child. They lived together three and onehalf years, she said. In that time, he gave her $25 In money and bought her $30 worth of clothes, according to her testimony. "Did he contribute toward the support of the home?" Judge Comstock asked, Interrupting the regular course of questioning which came from the attorneys. Buys Some Groceries. "Yes, he bought about one-third of the groceries. He never paid for them. They are not paid for yet." Mrs. Taylor said her husband came home intoxicated and mad at midnight almost every night and demanded to know who had been at the home during his nightly prowling. Each time, she said, he would find his revolver and dejectly decide to shoot himself, but each time, her pleadings cheered him and he put the firearm away. He did not threaten at any time to kill her, she said, and stayed home one night every week or two when exhausted by the nightly joy rides he indulged in regularly, she said. He also paid the gas and electric bills, averaging $2 a month, but her mother paid the rent. Judge Comstock issued the decree and instructed Mrs. Taylor to permit her husband to visit the child at times. He also encouraged her to continue a course of business instruction so that she can earn a living. She is now living with her husband. GIVES POLICE MONEY UNTIL SHOW LEAVES Thousands of people filled the streets of the city today, the magnet being the always popular circus, this time the Robinson shows. Special precautions were taken by the police to pro-: tect the crowds from the operations of the light fingered, which always follow in the wake of a circus, but up to noon no report of purse snatching or picket picking had been reported at head-' quarters. Reports of lost children came in as usual, however, frantic mothers begging the officers to hunt for their missing offspring. Every child was soon found. Albert Muhl. a Spanish-American war veteran living at the Marion Sol-: diers' Home, came to police headquar- j ters early and turned over $127 f?r safe keeping. He said he did not want 1 to have such a large amount on him in j such a big crowd. Later he came in ' and asked that he be given $40 or $50. but Chief Goodwin decided that $2 would be sufficient spending money for him until the saloons closed, and that is all Muhl got. ; CAPTAIN TURNER SAVED AND 51 CREW MEMBERS NEW YORK, May 8 The local Cunard offices announced at I2:10j o'clock that five officers and fifty-one j members of the Lusitania crew were , saved. The officers are Captain Turner, Chief Steward Jones. Second Officer Lewis and the second and third engineers.
