6ame Invented in Massachusetts
Only Few Years Ago and Is Now
Played by Thousands of Teams -Contest
Saturday Night Between
U. 0. and riendly's-
The last ton yours have noon (ho
rise of the gaum of biiHkeibnll Nor
one or two teams In the world to
thousands at tlio present time. The
ame was Invented In Massachusetts
a little over ton years nun by it phys
ical tralnor who felt the need f a
winter gymnasium sport. The Unit
basket is Bald to liavo been a clothes-
basket, very much larger than the
present hoop.
Since tho creation of the game the
rules have gouo throiiKh many chang
es, but nevertheless each year has
een the gamo become more popular
South and EuBt, North and West, un-
til now It has taken n place In large
cities not held by any other sport
except baseball. Kvorywhcro it Is
strictly an amateur game, and In the
last four or flvo years colleges have
begun to make It ennui to football,
track work and baseball. In tho Hast
this has been done much longer than
In the West, where schools mo much
further apart.
The game has becomo a popular
one with the public, us Is proved by
the support given throe teams la liu
gene, tor Instance.
Its constant prnctlco Is said to be
very beneficial to tho players, dovel-j
oping every imtxclo of tho body. I
Moreover, the gnmu develops self-abnegation
as no other gamo does, for
In basketball tho secret of success Is
team work. There Is, too, an alert
ness demanded which only the
brightest aud best minds can attain
well. Besides this bull strength does
not count for bo much as In football,
which Is demonstrated plainly when
we consider thill most of tho best
teams In tho country are made up. of
mall men. In this respect may bo
explained how tho Friendly Club, of
this city, has beaten clubs bo much
larger and heavier. The high school
team Is also made up of small fast
men, who with more experience will
become very clever players. A team
to became expert should play togeth
er at least two years, for under
that limit the team work cannot
Teach a very high state of perfection.
The university team Is made up or
good Individual men, under n good
coach, but as tbv have played to
gether only a month and a half
they have not reached anywhere near
the perfection that they will have at
tained by next year. Moreover,
Coach Betdck Intends to keep the
team together this spring, so that
they will be In good shape by next
faO.
The game with tho Friendly five
here Saturday will be an interesting
contest and not ine-slded, for though
the 'varsity has hud tho benefit of
tho host of coaches In Mr. Bezdek,
they have not been together any
where near as long as their smallor
opponents. Nevertheless tholr men
a 10 old at the game and fall In with
each other quicker and much bettor
than ono would at first suppose, nnd
so tho battle at tho armory pavil
ion will be a warm one Saturday
night, and worth going somo ways to
see.

Clear Headed Girl Operator Rectifies by
Her Presence of Mind Mistake
Which Would Have Cost.
Scores of Lives.
Only the cool nnd quick action of
Miss' Norn Ilrecklnrldge, a telegraph
operator employed by the Itock Island
railroad In Arlington, Kan., prevented
a bead-on collision between two trains
under clrcuiiisiiincos almost Identlcnl
with the blunder that cost thirty-live
lives In tho recent wreck, also on the
Hock Island line, near Topekn.
By milking tiso of n telephone Miss
Breckinridge roused a farmer, who ran
to the tracks anil, with a red skirt of
bis wife wrapped around a lantern,
stood between two trains and kept
them from crashing together at express
speed.
Miss Breckinridge Is rclnt'-d to the
Breckinridge family of Kentucky. Her
father Is the operator In Liingdou, the
next station east of Arlington. The
young woman was on duty for the
night. Near midnight a westbound
fast freight pulled Into Arlington.
The locomotive took water, nnd II
was almost ten minutes before the
trulu was ready to continue Its Jour
ney. Miss Ilrecklnrldge bud received
a message that the track was clear.
She gave the signal to the brakeman
of the freight and he passed It up to
the engineer.
The train .slowly gained headway.
nnd Just when It was dragging out of
the station a warning message began
to tick into tho olllce. It was to tho
effect that a passenger train had Just
pulled out of Turon, two stations to
the eastward, and that Miss Rrecklu
ridge must hold the freight. She rush
ed out nnd signaled frantically, but the
train was out of reach.
The girl took a chance of catching
her father In Lnugiloii, but there was
no response to her call on tho wire.

flco bad been closed several hours.
Frnutlc appeals for Information were
being made from the dispatcher's of
fice, but Miss ltrivklnrUlKc did not
waste a moment answering them.
She was several minutes at tho tele
phone before there was an answer
from tho fanner, who lives almost
midway -between Arlington and Turou.
The man demanded why any one
should call him up at so late an hour
of tho night. In a few words Miss
Breckinridge told him of the emer
gency, lie dropped the receiver In
stantly and went to the trucks clad In
his night clothes.
Miss Breckinridge went from the tel
ephone to the telegraph instrument and
ticked Into the dispatcher's ofllce tho
facts of tho situation. Sho said noth
ing could be done except wait for
news of the trains, aud for half an
hour there was suspense up a nil down
the ltoek Island line. Not one word
In commendation of Miss Breckin
ridge's uetlim came from a superior
until she bad sent out ttie farmer's as
surance that the trains were safe.
Then from the dispatcher camo an
eutbuslustlc message, and from points
us far east as Chicago otllclals of the
road sent their praises.
It Is understood that the young wo
man will bo substantially rewarded by
the company. There were ntiout a bun.

Turon. and they nil nlightml In Arling

Between the death of King Edward
VI. of England and the accession of
Queen Mary tbcre was as effort made
to place a usurper on the throne In the
persou of Lady Jane Grey. The fail
ure of the plau brought ou one of the
most uffectlug tragedies ot English
history.
With others sent to the Tower of
London for complicity iu the move
ment was Henry llnmerstou, who was
to have beeu married to Harriet Bur
leigh, a young ludy of rare accomplish
ments and beauty. - She had pleaded
with her lover to keep aloof from the
conspirators, but tho dangers attend
lug the attempt were as alluring to
him as they were repellent to her.
lie had gone heart and soul Into the
effort, fought valiantly for the cause
and when It fell was made a prisoner
to await trial and probable execution.
Humerston, being a man ot rank
and uot having been a leader In the
attempted usurpation, was accorded
privileges usually gruutod to such per
sons. He was lodged with one of the
Tower omcluls aud permitted to have
bis own servant and such luxuries as
he desired. His devll-mny-cnre disposi
tion kept him up even In tho s.hudow
of the block, and when bis fiancee
came to see him It was he who sup
ported her sinking spirits Instead of
her doing as much for him. "Never
fear, sweetheart," he would say cheer
ily; "this head will never roll Into the
basket. My wits will surely get me
out of this scrape. You muy see me
any momedt. Keep the fastest horse
iu your father's stables saddled. Some
day I will mount him and before they
can catch me will gain the coast, and
away to France." The girl considered
this merely Intended to keep up a show
ef spirit that she might not break down
before the tragedy came,
Humerston was such agreeable com
pany that his keeper never tired of
being with him. He would frequently
ask his prisoner to drink a bottle of
wine with him. Ono day when they
sat down to drink Ilamcrston made n
wry face at the taste of the wine.
"Hoot, man!" exclaimed tho keeper.
"What d ye mean by making a face at
wlno I have myself Imported from
Burgundy?"
"I don't like It," replied Humerston.
"I have much better wlno in the cel
lar myself."
"Nonsense! There's no better wine
Iu France thau this."
"But I don't like French wines.
Glvo me your permission to send to
tho cellar for some wlno I have there.
nnd I'll show you what good wine Is."
"Send If you like."
Ilnmerston's servant was called, nnd
his muster, .looking him in the eye
meaningly, said:
Go to the cellar and fetch a bottle
of Oporto wine. Do not make n nils
tako and bring nny of the other wines
I hare there. Bring the Oporto."
Now, this was a signal between
master and servant thnt no ono recog
nized except themselves. The servant
went nwny, and the two men contin
ued to discuss tho merits of different
wines, the keeper standing sturdily by
those of France, bis prisoner advocat
ing those of Spain. Time passed, and
the servant did not return.
"Tho man has stopped to drink,"
said Ilamcrston, "and likely Is lying
on the tloor drunk. I'll go to the ccl
lur myself."
Jumping up, he left the room. In
the corridor his servant was waiting
for ti I in.
"All right," said the man. "nere is
the key."
"And the keeper's man?"
"I persuaded lilm to go to the cellar
for the wine, followed blm and locked
him Iu."
Humerston quickly Inserted the key
handed him In the door of the room
where be had left his keeper nnd, turn
ing It, locked tho olllclnl in. Then,
changing his velvet doublet and hat
for tho courser one of bis servant that
he might attract less attention, he
walked awey with no one t i stop hi m.
Keeping as far away from those pass
ing as possible, he walked leisurely to
the main gate of the town and passed
out, the guard never dreaming that he
was a prisoner of state.
Harriet Ilnrlrigh was sitting In her
room, attempting to embroider to di
vert her mind from tho tragedy thnt
hung oyer her. She was dreading that
her lover might any moment be
brought to trial, and as there was no
defmire be must surely lie convicted of
high treason. She was thinking that
she would In that event go nnd Im
plore the queen to spare his life. Sud
denly her mnld called to ber from the
window:
"Lawk, my latlyl .Is this a ghost
walking up from the gate?"
Harriet rati to tho window nnd nt
onoo recognized Henry llnmerstou In
the nppnrel of a servant. He was
walking leisurely, with seeming uncon
rern. Catching her breath, she ran
sown the staircase and met her lover.
"I told you I'd come, sweetheart.
Have you the horse ready?"
The girl flung herself Into his arms
for a moment, then led him to the sta
ble, where she showed him a saddled
burse. Mounting, ha stooped for a
pnr'lng kiss and rode awny as leisurely
as be bad come. But no sooner bad
night fallen than be put spurs to his
horse and dashed away for tho easier
const. There he found n Tessel bound
for France aud shipped as a common
sailor, arriving withlu a few hours.
Wbon the effects ot the rebellion had
quieted down, Harriet Burleigh asked
and received for her lover a pardon.
Ho returned to England, tho lovers
were married, nml Hamerstou remain
ed a loyal subject.
