C. M. ST. P. WILL
HAVE BASEBALL
TEAM THIS YEAR
As soon as the weather is permis
sible, one of the fastest baseball
teams in the Northwest will dbn uni
forms for practice. This team will
fly the colors of the Chicago, Milwau
kee and St. Paul Railroad, and will
be lead by Milton Williams of Minne
apolis.
Two officials of the railroad are
largely responsible, together with the
athletic ability of Mr. Williams, for
there being a C. M. and St. P. team.
Mr. George Connelly, superintendent
of motive, Chicago, and Mr. G. A.
Van Dyke, superintendent of trans
portation, Minneapolis, are the men
of the company who have given much
toward the team’s support. Uni
forms and equipment was furnished
last year, which was the first year for
the team. This season a private car
will be made available by the rail
road company.
The team played thirty games last
season and lost twelve. These games
were played against some of the
strongest aggregations in Minnesota
and Wisconsin.
Seek New Laurels.
The team will seek new laurels
this season, as they will be strength
ened by several of our best baseball
players in addition to the last year
line-up. The men who will report
for practice are: Mr. Williams, man
ager; Macey Breedlove, Bert Lewis,
Dayton Blackburn, Fred Breedlove,
Steve Banner, Richardson, Jess Reed,
Joe Carter, Ray Lewis, Edgar Jack
son and Joe Scott. Mr. Connelly and
Mr. Van Dyke have great faith in the
ability of the boys and through Mr.
Williams will pit them against the
strongest teams obtainable. These
two men have given their best sup
port to make provisions for a repre
sentative team that no railroad may
be ashamed of. Already they have
been in conference with the team
manager and are ready to make what
ever changes are necessary to have a
good aggregation of baseball timber
on this division.
Milton Williams, the team manag
er, is the youngest man in the North
west to have the responsibility of
managing a team like this one. He
lead them successfully through last
year and bids fair to be another
"Rube” Foster.

FORMER EMPLOYER HELPS
PRISONER OUT OF JAIL
(Continued from page 1)
The services of Atty. J. Louis Ervin
were secured in behalf of the defense.
Innocence Believed.
Eight charges were made by the
state, who was represented by As
sistant County Attorney Allen McGill,
against the accused. Fourteen wit
nesses testified for the state while
only four could be found for the
defense; one of these being Mr. Gas
kell.
Mr. Gaskell gave his time, service
and personal money to secure the re
lease of the prisoner. Even gave his
own watch when Jones’ had been con
fiscated by the authorities on grounds
that it was stolen. He also solicited
funds from his own friends as well as
some Race people whom he knew. It
was the loyahy of Mr. Gaskell, to
gether with the legal ability of At
torney Ervin, that caused the case to
be dismissed on account of lack of
evidence and the accused to go free
without any pending charges.
On the advice of his attorney,
Jones immediately left the city fol
lowing his acquital. The case was
tried before Judge W. Boerner in dis
trict court.

In a Lincoln’s birthday address,
broadcast by Btation WJAR, one of

National Association for the Advance
ment of Colored People, sent the as

was: "How to Preserve the Spirit
of Lincoln in American Life,” and his
address was part of a one-hour pro
gram arranged by the N. A. A. C. P.
Following his address, Mr. Bagnall
has received a letter from Thomas W.
Bicknell of Providence, aged 90
years, who heard the radio address
and writes:
"You gave us an amazingly strong,
clear and comprehensive address to
day at Providence by radio. I cheer
ed, but you did not hear.
"In 1860 I was a student in Brown
University and a member of the gen
eral assembly of Rhode Island. My
first speech was to open all schools
in Rhode Island to Negro children.
In 1863 all schools were opened by
Lincoln's Emancipation Proclama
tion. My life has stood four square
with your purposes and arguments.
The day of deliverance is not far ofT.”
Mr. Bagnall will appear here next
month in behalf of the N. A. A. C. P.
branches.

HEIR TO WEALTH
LIVEDINPOVERTY
Is there something in the lives of
men that shape their destinies or
does destiny shape itself and laugh
with us or at us in our plight? Some
are born with fortune while others
are interwoven with poverty at the
loom of life.
Joseph Wickworth, said to be a
ne’er do well, a frequenter of the
haunts and dives of South Norfolk
and Berkley, Va., received news from
New York City to the effect that his
mother had Just died in that city,
leaving him heir to $33,000 in
cash and $77,000 in real estate and
railroad shares.
How does it feel to be eking out
an existence from the very depths of
poverty, want and privation one day,
and to awake the next morning and
find yourself a person of wealth and
afTluence? In the case of Wickworth,
the hand of Fate shuffled the cards
and dealt him out the ace.
According to reports from New
York, Mrs. Mary A. Wickworth, Jo
seph’s mother, died January 1, and
in her will it was disclosed that she
had in her life accumulated $33,000
in bank accounts and the remainder
of the SIOO,OOO estate in property,
all of which she directed to revert to
her son Joseph upon her^death.
Joseph Wickworth 1b well known
about Berkeley. Although, apparent
ly inheriting fine traits, it is claimed
by those who know him. that through
dissipation and whiskey drinking he
has sunken to the level of a human
derelict. He is described to be a man
about 40 years old, care-free, happy
go-lucky and an inveterate drinker.
Only last week, the day before he
received word of his mother's death,
it is afleged that he went into a place
of a business friend of his and asked
the loan of a quarter. He was given
a quarter when he admitted that he
wanted to buy food with it.
"I’ll pay you the money Saturday
when I get paid. I will give you a
dollar for this quarter.” As he turn
ed to leave the place he promised
that he would some day be able to
return the favors of his friends.
Gets Word of Mother’s Death.
In tattered raiment and with tell
tale lines of a life of dissipation, want
and suffering showing on his counte
nance, he left the pressing shop,
clutching pitifully tlie money with
which he intended to feed himself,
according to the story of those ac
quainted with the man.
THANN*S
Man About Town.
owned property in New York, but
never revealed to his friends that the
property was in his mother’s name.
The news of his sudden wealth has
not affected Joseph in the least, it is
said. He and his wife left for New
York early this week.
Rev. McDonald of Omaha, Neb.,
was a visitor in the city this past
week on business. He was the guest
of Mr. and Mrs. T. Bush, 543 Brun
son street. He left for his home
Wednesday evening.
