spicuous next season ia the championship
tourney Of the Gaelic League. The clubs
were new last year, and the players were
raw. Constant practice has brought them
mp to a first class condition. The weak
players have stepped down and the team
work which was ragged is now almost
perfect. The improvement is best shown
by the recent triumphs. They have
brought home laurels for several weeks.

the champions, the Kickhams Of Harlem,
and easily vanquished them. While they
were disposing of the crack team of the

merry dance.
The Barrys were confident when they
faced the champions and assumed the ag-
aressive as soon as the ball was in play.
The kickhams made a brilliant and stun
born defence. They forced the bali into
the territory of their opponents, but the
Jersey boys sent it back quickly. The
game was full of dash and excitement.
Wpen the first half closed the Barrys
had two goals to its credit. The points
were scored by Mcconnell and c. Gore
vim. The Kickhams had one goal kicked
by Breen and three points. The lead

Weayer,s Nomination.

Ifanything was needed to weaken the
Third party movement it was the nom
ination of Weaver for President The
new party could not possibly have
found man in whom the members
could have less confidence; or who is
less fitted to be leader. And yet he
suits the platform, and according to the
fitness OF things his nomination was
proper.
General Weaver is a calamity bowler
from away back. Twelve years ago he
was the head and front Of the green
back craze and was that party's candi-
date for President Six years later, find
ing himself without a party, he looked
around for another rev movement to
head and found it in the Union-Labor
party, which was the greenback crowd
under another name and organization.
Heis chronic agitator Of new ideas
and an advocate of impractical doctrines
and visionary schemes. Like others OF
his kind and the great mas Of. those
who made up the new so-called Peoples
party convention, he sees nothing
brightin the future and in the most
prosperous Of times reads the signs of
ruin and disaster, which only the fall
lacies and sophistries some new wildly
constructed reform movement can
avert. 1t matters not to him what the
principles are SO they are utopian, and
contemplate revolution, or a general
turning over and substitution OF a fan
ciful system that originated in the mind
of some visionary Statesman" for the
old order OF things.
General Weayer's whole record suits
the platform, and in rounding outthe be-
ginning Of the end of its fruitless career
the new party of strange and imprac.
tical ideas did an appropriate thing.
