MEDIUM WINS DERBY.
WAYNESBORO, GA.. Dec. 5.—Happy
Medium, handled by F. C. Ix»ckhart.
finished first in the Continental Derby
yesterday. Aristotle, handled by Jake
Bishop, second, and Geneva M. t handled
by Dan Morgan, third. This ends the
Continental's open trials, and the sub

THE JOLLIEST CROWD
YOU EVER SAW IS AT
THE OLD DUTCH MILL
The jolliest showgirls and the
cleverest comedians you have
ever seen are to be found at the
Dutch Mill. Like one big fami
ly, they laugh, dance and sing,
and the good humor is infectious,
for you just can't keep still while
they are in action. The costumes
are catchy, the girls are pretty
and the music is good. If time
hangs heavy, go to the Dutch Mill
and dull care will vanish, and the
smile will return to brighten. A
Dollar show for a Dime. You
may smoke, too.
EMBERS of Ia?w Hardage's all
star football team will have their
final work-out at Grant Field
this afternoon for their battle with the
Seventeenth Infantry at Ponce DeLeon
Park Saturday afternoon. The players
will be put through a long signal drill,
as the team is mostly in need of team
work.
Lieutenant Devore, of the Soldiers, is
wasting no time in having his players
In the best of shape for tHe fray. The
infantry boys will rely on the wide open
game, as in Swartz they havp one of
the best forward pass tossers In the
South.
Time and again Swartz threw the
oval with deadly accuracy against the
! cavalry last Saturday, and Devore
thinks if the Soldiers can get away with
| a couple of touchdowns against the All-
Stars they will have a chance to bag
I the game.
In Bingle. the Soldiers have another
reliable player. He is also u gre at place
kicker and is dangerous anywhere with
in the ** >ard line Devore has had
' him practicing all week and it would
not be surprising to see him get awav
with a couple of scores over the air
route.
Lew Hardage. however, is not worry
ing over his opponents. He doesn't
think there is a team In the South ca
pable of stopping the great collection
of players he has gathered.
Newell, Hardage. Morrison and Mc
Whorter will probably he the hackfield
that will start- against the Soldiers.
Gardner and Majors at ends. Mea
dows and Lamb at tackles. Means and
Peacock at guards, and Pitts at cen
ter will probably be the line that will
open against them.
With this aggregation of stars, the
Hardage eleven should certainly be able
to put up a mighty hefty scrap.
Billy Papke Signs to
Box Chip on Jan. 12
CHICAGO, Dec. 6 After changing
the date on two different occasions,
Billy Papke. Kewanee middleweight ami
j one-time champion of that division, to-
I day signed to battle George Chip, In
j Milwaukee on January 12. The match
! will be for ten rounds, each of the fight
j ers agreeing to weigh 160 pounds at 3
o’clock. In picking Chip as his oppo
nent. Papke goes against a tough game
I for it was Chip who knocked nut Frank j
Klaus. Papke says he will train fully
three y Chip lias been signed for 1
several weeks.
BETTER THAT THAN A HYPO.
'/ can not sleep,*' a stranger said.
“/ toss upon mg restless bed;
In rain I linger in the hag
I And trait until the break of dag,
For slumber ahrags passes by
| And never even bats an eye."
''Chela- up!" I kindly told the lad
“ Your ease is not so gol darn bad,
For / have seen men worse than you
Recover in an hour or two."
"Then," said the stranger with new
hope,
."Slip me an earful of your dope!
And when / whispered in his ear
Uis joyous voice was good to hear.
And with a smile upon his face
//< hastened to a six-day race.
And soon arose a healthy snore
That echoed for a mile or more.

advice is unnecessary when they arc

The war in Mexico is not interfer

is because the average bookmaker’s
hide is so thick that bullets fail to
puncture it.
