for one hour in a very interesting man-

of the Knights of the Maccabees was
the real thing. He did not decry any
other organization. but instead stated
that they were 'tiii a Godsend to the

A large crowd collected in the Ar-

The Bridgeport team won its game
in the most exciting finish ever seen
in Norwuik. by a score of thirteen to
eleven, the game lasting almost a full
nail overtime. The Montnuks easily
carried off the palm in the first game,
defeating their opponents eighteen to
two.
Neither Company F players nor the
Bridgeport team had played recently.
both preparing specially for this game,
which the Bridgeporters kindly con-
scntcd to play. '
The Montsuk-Bouth Norwalk game
was the first game called and in the
early part was exceedingly exciting. Ab
though the athletes prevented their op-
ponents from scoring for the first eight
minutes. the ball was in their territory
most of that time and they were finally
caught napping with the result that
Parker scored a field goal on a good
pass from Godfrey. A minute of excit-
ing play ensued and Parker had land-
ed the ball in the basket again. i'nree
minutes later Dornej: scored. putting
the home team in the load. ii to 0. Then
on a foul by Pfizer. Parker made a
point. A double loui gave Parker or»
other point. while Hill failed ‘u his at-
tempt. Shortly before time was cali-
cd Godfrey landed a goal. the score
standing 10 lo 0 in favor of the home
team. ‘
Both teams mixed it up in tile second
half and were so busy fouling that they
find hardly time to throw a goal. Evans
and ilorncy each succeeded in locating
the basket twice during the half and
the visitors scored their only points on
fouls by . Evans and Godfrey, from
which Hill dropped goals.

Hold the Closest Attention of His Aud-

During the Evoning.
m
"Politics and the lSaloon." Was the
subject discourss‘d at St. Peter's
Church. in North: Main street last
night, by Volney B. Cashing. of Maine.
Mr. Cnslilng - is of very forcible
speaker. and held the. closest attention
of his keepers from beginning to end.
Notwithstanding thatfthe weather was
not desirabispthore‘r; were a goodly num-
ber present. and th‘jieoture delivered
was s'roremtlfobt. Th, , wasainmlng and
organ . selections curing the evening.
Shortly after 8 o’clock. A.‘”N. Sherwood
introduced the speaker. who gave the
Standard Dictionary definition of poll-
tlcb as the administration of public of-
fairs lu the interest of peace. prosper-
fly and safety of the state. Continuing
he said:
',"l‘he school. the church and the fac-
tory add to the peace. prosperity and
safety of the state. but the saloon kills
the aspiration: which the church cre-
ates. crirrupts the mind which the
schools instructs. impoverishes the fac-
tory. and is. therefore. inimical to the
peace. prosperity and safety of the
state." He maintained that the destruc-
lieu of the saloon was a political issue.
"What is the altitude of political par-
ties." he asked. "toward this great is-
sue? The Democratic party ignores it
and favors license for the saiooii. Time
was when equal rights for all and spec.-
llii privileges for none was Democratic
doctrine. blit ..le Democratic party now
siniiils for tile special privilege of a few
to sell liquor under restrictive license
laws. The attitude of the Republican
party is similar. except that. it stands
for u little higher license alid for more
of what is called restriction. and yet
under this Republican policy the liquor
traffic has grown to immense propor-
tions. the latest statistics showing that
seventeen gallons of intoxicants were
consumed last year for every man.
woman and child under the American
flag. At this rate what will be the
condition of the country if the Republi-
can party keeps on restricting the li-
quor business? Whether the Demo-
cratic or the Republican party wins, the
saloon goes right on. and the saloon
politician has place.
“What shall those who are opposed to
the saloon do? Two plans are propos-
ed. One is that they shall try to con-
trol the Democratic and Republican
parties as the liquor men do. The oth-
er is that they shall build a party to
destroy the saloon. it Is clear flint
tile null-saloon inch cannot compete
with the saloon man within party lines.
for the saloon men have too much mou-
ey and influence, and the politicians
will not alienate them by proceeding
against their business. A party which
has a saloon constituency. and depends
upon it to win victories. cannot be
trusted whore legislation adverse to
the saloon is involved. lll View of this
the anti-saloon men should build a
party to suppress the saloon. it must
come to this at last. and the sooner the
better. There must be a fight to the
finish in politics with the liquor power.
or the enemies of thorsaloon must give
up the fight. There is no escape from
this conclusion. The Prohibition par-
ty gives the anti-liquor men a chance
to rid themselves of- liolitical responsi-
bility for the saloon. Unless they sup-
port this party they must make an ab-
ject surrender, in every campaign, to
ginkmfll politics."
Mr. Cashing said in couelusfon that
the Prohibition party may be only a
political John “the Baptist. preparing
the m for another party that shall do-
stroy thcssloon. but in that case it was
iftfoal ri‘ maxim to stand by
igno- until i o greater should come. It

gld‘ifl a, new evil, than to stand With

SHERIFF AMBUSHED
AND KILLED.
PHOENIX. Ariz., April 16—
Sheriff Ed. Beeler, of Apache
county, well known throughout
the Southwest. was ambushed and
killed ill a fight over a month ago.
News of the bloody fight has just
reached here. Beeler fell mortal-
ly wounded by a volley from be-
hind a stone wall. At first it was
believed that Beeler was the vic-
tim of cattle rustlers, against
whom he had made a lori and bit-
ter warfare. but later it evclopcd
that the assassins were friends of
a man whom Bcclcr had killed,
who had sworn to avenge his kill-
ing. The friends of both parties
are up in arms, and more fighting
is likely to follow. A big party of
officers and Beclcr's men are in

to the effect that another storm
has prevailed on the prairies for
the past twenty-four hours, and
still continues. it began with a

two weeks, and lack of sufficient
food. The snow is drifting badly
and railroad traffic is being delay-
ed. in the vicinity of Denver and
on the plains the storm is describ-
ed as the worst for years.
