RALEIGH BUILDING Al LOAN ASSOCIATION THE NEWS AND GOSSIP l- w candidate OF DIAMON (By Leased Wire to Tlie Times.) Detroit, -Mich.,-."-March . 21. After everybody In Detroit -had .ibanrloncd hope, Ty Cobb signed a com met with the Detroit baseball club last night. The document calls for only one jvar of services, and its terms .are not mntio public. Earlier In the day the -player and President Navln had n fruitless two hours' talk, after .which they parted,.-each saying he was thrntiKli with the other. Cobb received a. check cov ering his expenses from hla home to Detroit and packed his Riip with the intention of going- to Philadelphia, to sign with Arthur Irwin for the Wash ington club of the Union League Hut he missed his train. Then he went back to the hotel .-and had dinner. While there ex-Mayor George P. Codd mot him. Codd Is a close friend of Cobb anil also of Pres ident Navln and made an appeal to the player for one more 'try, so .Navln was looked up and the ex-mayor said main very earnest words to the club owner and dissatisfied player. The result was that Cobb withdrew his demand for a three year contract, upon which he had before insisted as though it was a matter of life and death and Navln made some conces sions which is a secret between tht? player and his employer. It Is suppos ed to have been a substantial boost in salary, with a promise of more next year In case the player performs as brilliantly, la 1908 as he did In 1937. Anyway-, the expression of both par ties was that it was "perfectly satis factory." Cobb will go home to arrange a few personal affairs for a summer's ab scenes, and then will report to Man ager Jennings at Little Rock.

The Hcnnlng's handicap Is the feature of the opening day at Bennings on Monday. Much in terest is felt in that event just at pres ent. - If, however, the Hennings hand icap were run in the middle of June, or rather if a race was run with th? same class of horse engaged, race-goers would growl at the secretary for put tin;? on a race with such a cheap bunch of horses carded. Berkeley, with 115 pounds up, ap Vjrs to be the best touted horse for handicap honors. He has worked Ave furlongs In 1:01 2-5. There are many horses engaged which phould heat him If they are fit. Of the horses that have boen racing at New Orleans, Oraculum, Comedienne and Uelwether are the most promising. Belwether In his last race at New Or leans showed his top notch form. He beat Gu'iu(jiOuf trM other good sprint ers in very fast time and with 106 pounds looks a good contender. He also likes the Bennlngs course. Mad- State Treasurer -Lacy today gave to the press the following announco Ini'iit, which speaks for Itself: ! To the Public: For fear that some j of my constituents may have been misinformed in regard to my politi j cal movements and aspirations, I j-take this means of notifying the public at large and my friends In particular, that I will again be a candidate for the position of'State Treasurer, and to beg their kindly consideration. : I have served the state to the best of my ability, and having devoted every euargy to learning the duties of the office of State Treasurer, I am better equipped to fill the posl- I tion than ever before.. The conduct of my administration speaks for it self, and If I should be renominated and elected, I promise the continued j faithful performance of the duties of this office. I therefore beg that my friends will not only endorse me before the Convention, but in the democratic primaries preceding the Convention. B. R. LACY. Visitors to the new Thompson Graded School are at once attracted by the beauty of t::e place. The building is well situated in a beauti ful grove of old elm trees, with a large grassy lawn in front.
