the club to note was that there were
several new men who showed up finely at

greatly strengthen the club in the future.
Interest was aroused in those who had
never before cared for the sport, and the
chances are that the club membership will
be greatly increased.

was used, so that all stood an equal chance
for the prizes. Handicaps were also al

SERVICES FOR THE PEOPLE.
Movement on Foo. to Establish a Deeppr
Interest in Church Services.

The fact that 800 families in our city
confess that they never attend religious
service, and that hundreds besides are for
some reason Indifferent TO, if not pre-
JUDGED against. what the church repre-.
sents in the community, some of our pas
tors have decided to make an effort out
side the regular church service to reach
the ear of this class in the city.
To preach the gospel as they understand
1t. free from the association of church. OF
sectarian creed, in way neither to shock
reverence, or do violence to reason, but tc
appeal In the fear and love of Gcd to the
hearts and minds of men.
To this end series of services has been
arranged for Sunday afternoons, at .
o clock, in the hall on Water street. oc
cupied by the W. c. T. L.
A chorus drawn from the young people
connected with the Cniversalist ane Con.
gregational churches, will lead the praise
service, while solos will be rendered by
some of our most talented singers.
The first service in the series will te
held, sunday afternoon, and will be un-
der the leadership Of Rev James S. Viii
Hanson, who will give an address on the
subject. The Freedom that Comes
Through the Truth"
Mrs. f. W. Chase will sing a solo.

WateriIIe High Walks Away With
Institute Foot Ball Eleven.
Seison Ends With Hard Fought Contest Full
OF Brilliant Plays.

Waterville, Nov. 90 (SpeciaD. - A
hardfought battle was had ON the Colby
gridiron, Thursday forenoon, between the
Wateryille High and the Coburn CLASSICAL
institute teams. which was won by the
former, 12 to 0.
Two Commute halves were played and
| Wateryille seemed about all the time to
have it all her own way. Throughout the
entire game the ball was In Coburn 8 ter
ritory, and only once did Coburn have
any show to do any work. That was at
the beginning OF the second half. Tozier
brought the ball up to the middle of the
| field, but showed poor Judgment in run
ming into the heavy clay mud on the base
| ball diamond. Then the Coburns lost their
only chance to advance the ball by trying
to buck the Watcryillc line in the mud in
stead Of working the ball to grass ground
| by end plays. AS it was, they lost on
downs, and it proved that Waterville was
stronger in the mud than they were.
Neither side scored in the first half,
though the WatcrviIlcs had the ball close
| to Columns goal several times, and once,
just before the close of the half, Alden
made pretty run around the right end
and placed the ball ON the ground for
touchdown, but there was some holding In
the line and not only was the touchdown
lost but the ball given to Coburn. The
ball see sawed In Coburn's territory and
at the end of the first half anyone would
have bet even money that neither side
would score for the game.
In the second half, however, things as
sumed different aspect. Either Coburn
weakened or Waterville took IA mastery
brace After getting the ball on downs,
in the mud on the diamond Waterville
orked the ball down for steady though
short gains, the average being about three
yards each, aud finally Lavine carried the
ball over the line for touchdown while
the high school supporters almost went
frantic with joy, James kicked the goal
and another shout went up.
Coburn kicked to its 20-yards line
and the ball was brought up 90 yards by
james. Later James made 20-yards
gain through the left guard, which was
followed with a 25-yards gain by Lavine.
A side from these two long gains, the
Watervilles worked the ball as before by
steady, short gains, till James carried it
over the line for the second touchdown,
following with another goal.
The high school team to a man played
a brilliant game throughout, but particu
larry fine was the work Of Alden, Lavine,
James, Hussey, Frank Rollins and Allen.
For Coburn, Jordan played an elegant
game during the first half but used some
misiudgment In the last half Rice,
Crosby, Rowell and Tozier each did very
creditable work. 1t was plainly evident
that the Institutes suffered much from be
ing without practice for three weeks, then
coming into training again for this game.
