One phase of the liquor question, CT rather of the saloon question, which calls for practical consideration, is ,iSA Of social entertainment wl,i:L shesr places If resort furnish. In the aver lse town the saloon is practically ti.e oily place WI is; is open to evcry;'n" The proprietors also, from n pGn'iy ,usin"ss ,nsiieration, s$iyu to in:ro.
 ,ce such features of amusement and entcrtairment as will have att,~tirns for the u,e craze man who has nothing else tn do hut to amuSe himself for the time being.
 This part of the question, which Is ,crhaps the most important part, can ,e dealt with in one way only, and hat is by providing other places which will meet the legitimate social wants of the working man, and eliminate ;ho bad features of the saloon A plan s in the experimental stage in some of the eastern cities which promises some good results.
 Reading rooms and public halls are opencd, which are run on the plan O. the saloon, so far as the social and en. ,ertaimment parts arc concerned. Ev erybody is to feel at home, and persons may come md go as they please Lunches arc furnishe at moderate prices, and iE some of them music, and good literature, with occasional lect. ures, and services of varied kinds by Christian socie les, are features Of amusement and entertainment.
 If some such plan could be put in operation in our western towns, i'm measurable good could be done Why could not this be worthy object, fc' ;a- aid of all who are benevolentIy in ,linsd, and plan in which all coulI asit-. Ii the matter was oncc fairly ws.riled and puslel consistently, sch q pllce could be maintained, in avery town, to the lasting good Of everyone,

for the Ex-Confedsrnto Home.

OF the Contemplated Biz Fair and Ba2aap
for the Ex-Confedsrnto Home.
The committee of ladies and gentle-
men having in charge the plans for the
projected great fair and bazaar for the
benefit of the West Virginia Home for
INDECENT and helpless eX-C0nfederate
veterans met yesterday afternoon and
spent some time in considering the va
rious phases of the project. The ladies
Amounted to enlist the services OF the
retail merchants in the enterprise re-
ported that after consultation with a
humber of the leading merchants they
had been thoroughly impressed with
the idea that TO hold such an event, IN
the manner proposed, during the month
of December. would be impractcable,
for the reason that II is the busiest
month of the year with the retailers,
and they would be utterly unable to
Mace goods and clerks in the bazaar
feature of the enterprise. For this
reason they recommended a postpone
ment of the entire affair until tho
month of February, when the Cnrlst-
mas rush, stock-talIing, etc, would De
over. and merchants would be more NJ
leisure to engage in the enterprise.
After mature consideration oil TINS
reDort il was agreed 10 postpone me
affair until the first week IN February
when it will take place, on Weanes-
day, Thursday and FRIDAY

THE RODGERS CASE.
The Motion for New Trial Argued Yester



Before Judge Hugus, in the Criminal
Court yesterday, a motion for new
trial in the case Of w. w Rodgers, J.
p. was argued on behalf Of the defend
ant by Colonel w. w. Arnett. In the
course Of his argument he impressed
upon the court that his client was pre-
vented by illness from being present
at the former day set for the hearing,
and in support of this presented the
affidavits Of four witnesses, one being
the attending physician. The Colonel
also urged that nothing would be lost
to the cause Of justice, as if his client
was guilty of the things alleged he
would be convicted upon proper trial.
Mr.. Howard, for the State, opposed the
motion, saying, among other things, he
thought the defendant could have been
present If a proper effort had been made.
The matter was taken under advise
ment
The sentence of James Harper, con-
v.cted of a misdemeanor, was deferred.
The case of the State VS.. George Nc
Gil was continued.

PENNSYLVANIA and Harvard Play SPLEEN
didly Contested Game on Soldiers Field.
Score: Pennsylvania, II; Harvard. II.
Cambridge. Mass, November %
In one Of the grandest and most stub
bornly fought foot ball games ever wit
messed the plucky Harvard eleven
went down before the sturdy Pennsyl-
vanians on Soldiers Field this after
noon. fighting desperately and gamely
10 the last. The score was II to H.
Pennsylvania won by the splendid
kicking Of full back Brooke, which the
stiff breeze rendered all too effective in
the second half. Harvard lost primarily
through Brewers two bad misses Of
easy kicks for goal. which deprived the
crimson of the four points lacking for
victory But the Harvard eleven, with
bitter defeat staring them in the face,
PLAYED fiercely until the very last, and
even with the wind against them in
the second half they rallied and made
one Of the most magnificent spurts ever
seen on the grid iron, before which the
grit of Philadelphia went down like
Da2er. The crowd was 10000, and the
game was so replete with dramatic in
ciden.s that It kept them alternating
between intense silence and a frenzy OF
steering from the first play to the last.
The Harvard center was strong and
gave the Quakers all they wanted. On
the ends Harvard had the best Of 1t, but
al tackle. Wagenhurst and Farrar were
more than a match for Rice and Gould.
Pennsylvania tried numerous com
plicated mass plays on tackle and Criss-
crosses. The backs were not so sure
nor did they play as clearly as did
Harvard. but evidently they were the
stronger. and heavier set
1t was a splendid, fast game, with
little attempt at slugging and dirty play.

The almost incessant rain which
commenced on Friday, and which was
still falling at the hour of going to
press this morning, has caused a great
deal of enthusiasm among rivermen.
This feeling is increased by the reports
which come from up-river points, to
the effect that the rain has been gen.
eral. and of the same character as that
to which this section of the valley has
been treated. The heavy fall of rain
has caused the river to rise at all
points. Last night the marks on the
landing here indicated 2 feet inches
of water in the channel.
All indications point to barge water
tomorrow at Pittsburg. In anticipa-
ton Of a sufficient stage to float the
coal feet. there has been great activity
in the pools at Pittsburg, and prepare
tons are making for starting the i'm
mense quantity Of coal on its way TO
the Southern market 1t has been es-
timated that there are at least 10000
600 bushels awaiting shipment. or
this vast amount, about 100000 BUSH
els are loaded in barges, and will be
started South when a fair stage is
reached. The remainder is loaded in
coal boats. which will require a greater
rise to float Every boat in and about
Pittsburg viii be furnished with a tow.
It is more than likely that the Pitts
burg and Cincinnati packet line will
resume business this week. If the con-
dition Of affairs justifies it, one of the
first boats to be ordered out will be the
Keystone State, which has been tied
up in the North End all summer.
In the event of barge water, it will be
nearly eight months since the last ship
ment of coal was made from Pittsburg
by water. The last boat to depart was
the Stella Moren on April 20th. She
met the John Moran and turned over
her tow to that boat The stock OF
coal in Cincinnati, Louisville and New
Orleans is said to be very low. The
great bulk of the coal which will go
out. has been contracted for, and will
be delivered at the three cities men
toned.
The Liberty cleared at four o'clock
yesterday afternoon for Parkersburg
with all the freight she could con-
veniently handle and good passenger
list
The Lexington arrived yesterday with
a good trip.
Capt J. f. Ellison, superintendent OF
the Pittsburg and Cincinnati packet
line. at Cincinnati, certainly deserves
great credit for the fine hull the Vir-
ginia has. He examined. it is said, al
most every piece of timber that was
placed in her hull, and it was pro-
nounced by men who know to be the
finest in point Of construction and ma
terial that was ever built for the river
trade. Capt. Ellison is a practical
steamboatman, having for a number OF
years been commander Of the Hudson.
The snow storm which was predicted
to come from the west, turned into rain
before it reached the Ohio river.
The packet Evansville will enter the
Wheeling and Newport trade this week,
if the expected rise materializes.
