PAGE TWO THE CHANUfE DAILY TRIBUNE FEBRUARY 26, 1915 FOR A NATION Only 2 Miles From BOYS MUST BEAT PARSONS TONIGHT AND THE SUN. -by THE nnis ri i. i 1 -9 from miles around to watch the sport, but none possessed the confidence that the animals exhibited. When all was in readiness the signal for play was given and the strange and curious game began. The Flying Suqirrel succeeded in securing the ball at the first toss and carried it to the birds, who were in the -trees.

Accidentally tiie ball was dropped before the birds were able to carry it between the two posts. The Martin, seeing the ball, about to be lost tothe birds, darted after it and threw it to the Bat, who was flying close to the ground, and who by his doubling and dodging was able to keep it from the Deer, the fleetest of all animals. At last the Bat succeeded in carrying it between the posts and the game was won bytthe birds. As a reward for the splendid work of the martin a gourd was grown, so that ever after he would have a place for his nest. The bat ever since has had wings and has had a place among the birds.

The Flying Squirrel has ever since been loved and helped by the birds. We have just received our new Spring stock for Ladies, Misses, Children and Boys.

PRETTY MTH OF BALL GAME INDIAN TRADITION TELL 'HISTORIC CONTEST. OF Animals and Birds Were on Oppos ing Teams, and- the Fowls "Won, ThiGUgh Aid of the Flying Squirrel and the Bat.

Ada, Feb. 26. The ball game has been a sport among the aboriginees since prehistoric time, and today is played among many tribes even among the five civilized tribes. Its origin is shrouded in mystery as even the oldest extant even the Walam Olum of the Dela wares lays stress on the sport The myths of several tribes quite accurately describe the game, including the Chickasaws, Creeks, Cherokee, Sioux and Caddos, and it' is surprising how strikingly similar they are. It is related that many, many years ago, before the removal of the Indians to Oklahoma, the animals challeneged the birds to a game.

All arrangements relative to the rules that should govern were made. The game was to be "played at the tribal dance ground the animals to occupy a grassy strip along the river, and the birds the treetops. The animals were under the leadership of the Bear, whose strength was such that he was held The Terrapin was with the animals not the Terrapin so common, but the great Terrapin. He was chosen on account of his hard shell, because heavy blows would not affect him. The Deer was also chosen be'Cause he could outran all other animals.

The plans and arrangements were so complete that success fir the animals seemed assured. The leader of the birds was the Eagle, chosen for his strength and swiftness of flight The dance was held, and while awaiting the final arrangements two strange animals appeared who asked to join the birds in the game. They stated that as. they had been made the butt of ridicule by the animals, and they desired to join the birds for revenge. Neither had wings, so a council of the birds was held relative to permitting them to participate, and it was agreed that wings should be supplied them.

Strips were cut from the dance drum and wings were made and fastened with cane splints to the forelegs of the smaller animal, and he was renamed the Bat. Not having time to prepare the other, the skin along the of the body was pulled out; by the Eagle and the Hawk and stretched from the fore-front to the hind foot and he was renamed the Flying SquirreL Both former animals proved expert in the catching and carrying of the ball. -While these preparations were going the various animals had gathered along the river, bank and set up a great howl of derision, all confident of the successful result of the game.

SAILORS GET EXTRA PAY FOR PERIL They Had to Sue lor Bonus Promised for Running Oil Cargo Past German Blockaders.

London, Feb. 26. The crew of the oil tanker Carpathian have just won a victory at law agaiust the owners of the vessel, who tried to escape the payment of a bonus promised. by the captain for running the gauntlet of German cruisers in the Atlantic. The Carpathian was caught in a Texas port at the outbreak of the war.

Her crew of seven men refused to sail unless paid risk money. The captain agreed to give them a bonus of $60 each in addition to their wages. Rumors of German cruisers destroying commerce were then numerous. But the men accepted the risk and the vessel sailed for Rotterdam with a cargo of oil. Although the ship was loaded with a dangerous cargo, which could be set afire by a shell, the crew agreed, in view of the bonus, to stick to the captain through thick and thin, as they testified in court.

TJie journey was safely made, and its end the skipper offered the men $5 each instead of $60. Thereupon he crew brought suit. In court, the owners, the Petroleum Steamship Company, did not deny the allegations of the men and fell back on the technical defense that, under the merchant shipping act a seaman is not entitled to wages further than those stipulated in the articles he has' signed.

The basket ball games oetween the Chanute and Parsons high school teams here tonight are. of more than ordinary importance, because tney will be "decisive." If the Chanute boys get by in good shape they will retain their preserffc leadership in the Southeastern Kansas High School Basket VBall League and be well along on the road to the championship. On the other hand, if the Parsons boys win the Channte boys will drop back-into second place and the Parsons boys vwill remain real con tenders for the title.

The games will be played in the Senior high school gymnasium. The girls' game here this evening will not be so "decisive" for the rea son that the Parsons girls are in third place. Should they defeat Chanute, the result would be in fa vor of the Coffeyville girls, who are runners-up. The Coffeyville teams will play in inaepenaence to night, and it is likely they will win both games from Montgomery county. The teams are entering the final stretch of the schedule bunched in a way tnat promises plenty or xnrius and is likely to leave the champion ship in doubt until the very last came.

In the boys' division, Chanute, Parsons and Coffeyville lead in the order named. Chanute will have two scames to play after this evening, and Parsons will have but one left. The fact that both Chanute and Parsons have yet to meet Coffeyville is what makes the final result uncertain.
