e e IADY LAWYER SEEKS DAM AGES OF SHERIFF AND JUDGE 7.—Representing Miss Annie Ball, the millionaire lawyer-realty dealer of Chicago, Dickenson & Dickenson have filed their plea in federal court against George C. Lanier and County Judse G. V. Ramsey of Brooksville, for $10,000, and Sherif W. E. Law and his bondsmen, W. L. Fleming, John J. Hale and W. W, McKeth- on, for $3,000, resulting from the alleged false imprisonment of Miss Ball for trespassing. The suit is certain to be one of the warmest tried at the mext term of federal court, with Miss Ball as- sisting her attorneys in the fight. She is not only a lawyer of great ability, but has amassed a fortune said to be larger than that of any {ndividual man in Tampa through her business ability, and if the prominent officials and citizens of Hernando county do not lose their “goat” in this suit, it will not be the fault of the plaintiff. Miss Ball had purchased what is known as the George Smith prop- erty in or near Brooksville, which was claimed by Lanier, a man of means. As she refusel to vacate, Lanfer had her arrested by Sherift Law on a warrant issued by Judge Ramsey, and she was sent to jall and remained there several days in preference to making bond. When tried before Judge Ramsey he was forced to release her, as a result of which she hopes to “land on” the financial anatomy of every man con- nected with the affair.

Ac cording to an Old Painting Now in British Museum—Flourished in 600 B. C. New York.—When polo was first played in England in 1869 it was styled “hockey on horseback.” Yet hockey itself was one of the numer- ous games with etick and ball de- rived from the common ancestor, polo. They called it “chaugan” in the days when the sport was popular with the Persians. As far back as the sixth century B. C. this sport of the Per- sian aristocracy was in & flourishing condition. The ancient Persian poets sang ite praises even as do the sport- ing writers today. The game Wwas played by Persian women, too. In the British museum there is an old paint- ing of several Persian ladies playing a game of polo. The painting shows that the Persians bandaged the legs of their mounts exaetly as the polo ponies are bandaged today. The Mobammedans, when they con- quered Pessia, learned the game of “chiaugan,” and liked it o much that they. took # up for one of their own gports. The game traveled from Persia to Tartary, and then to India via Afghan- |{stan. Jepan and China, too, had games bearing & close resemblance to it. Tn faet, throughout the entire east polo was the prineipal game. It derived: its present name from the “pulu” of the Tibetan tongue, mean- ing a willow ball. Among the natives of India the game was “kunjai,” and was introduced into Eugland, after having been brought to Calcutta: by English army officers. The Ninth lancers played the first polo match in England in 1871, There was on great interest taken in the sport by the Duglisly public uutil many im- provements were made in the rules. From eight men on a team the num- ber of players was gradually reduced to four: The style of play changed also. At first the balt was threwn into the cen- ter of the fleld and: all the players spurred their Horses to the center of the field' after it. This was changed 80 that the teams lined up as they do now. The sport then became popular in England, and, in 1880, the Hurling- ham club, now the representative polo club in England, was formed. Polo was introduced into the United | | States in 1876. It was first played ! at Dickler's riding academy. TWO ;4 polo: clubs were organized, the West- |} chester Polo club and the Brighton‘ Polo club. In 1879, in the first match in the United States, held at Prospect ‘i park, Brooklyn, the Westchester teams defeated the Brighton team. The fa- mous Meadow Brook club was started in 1881.

PRIEST BARS SPLIT SKIRTS Refuses to Administer Sacrament to “Scantity Clad” Women, of Meriden, Conn. Meriden, Conn.—Women whom Rev, James Conlin of St. Rose’s Catholie church of this city believes to be im- modestly or too scantily elad will be barred from the sacrament at the al tar. Father Conlin said he believed it was his duty as a priest to refuse holy communion to women in slit skirts or girls wearing low-cut or peek-a-boo waists. Father Conlin, who came here from New Haven, created a sensation a few nionths ago when he forbade the wo- men of his parish attending masquer- ades and denounced the wearing by women of male attire at dances, “The church of God is neither a ball room nor a recreation pier,” said Fath. er Conlin. “I have no objection to wo- men wearing cool, decent clothes te church, but it is high time to call a halt when they appear before me in things that are mere apologies for sleeves, a wisp of cloth and a yard of “Home | nOthing.” Y > v g W A SN PUTE o7 L TN AT IRIWIPL A G TR SOOI AT TP G ¢ t : ’ : b 4] s | Sugar, 17 ponnds Cottolene, 10 pound pals. ...........
