suit up to this time has been failure. But if
reasonable, what is just, and they would have
the sympathy of very large majority of their
fellow-men, provided they were reasonable.
But before they can act in this way they ust
become really intelligent, intelligent enough
to know what is reasonable and honest enough
to ask for no more.
All our sympathies should be with the men
who work, who toll, for the women who labor
for themselves and children, because we know
that labor is the foundation of all and that
those who labor are the cary atides that sup
port the structure and the glittering dome of
civilization and progress.
In conclusion Colonel Ingersoll made an
earnest plea for the education of children.
Nothing should be taught in the schools
that the teacher did not know. Beliefs,
superstition and theories should not be
treated like demonstrated facts. The child
should be taught to investigate, not
to believe. "To civilize the world" he
urgued, ito hasten the coming of the
golden dawn of the perfect day, we must
educate the children; we must commence
at the cradle, at the lap of the loving
mother

FOOTBALL At VALLEJO.
Contest Between the Oaklands
and the Farraguts Ends
in a Tie.
Both Teams Put Up Scorching Game
and Neither Is Able to
Score.

VALLEJO, CAL, April 12.-The football
game here to-day between the Farraguts
AMI Oaklands was very exciting contest
played before 1000 spectators from Vallejo,
Suisun, Napa and surrounding towns.
Both teams put up rafting game and
when time was called at the end of the
last half neither had scored.
The game was called promptly at 80
O'Clock, the Farraguts having the kick off.
Mcclure kicked strongly and the Farra-
CUTS got the bali OH the play. After two
scrimmages they lost it and the Oaklands
carried it across tho field by hard work to
the Farraguts fve-yard line, where the
local team made superb stand and got
the bali on downs.
The Farraguts forced the ball back and
lost it at the 20-yard line, but were play
for three downs. The Farraguts bucked
twice and McEnery went around the left
end for thirty-five yards, aided by magni-
ficent interference bv Bray and Mcclure.
They then went through the Oaklands for
five yards in two plays and the half was
over, neither side having scored.
In the second half Corcoran caught the
kickoff and the Oakland team quickly Sc
cured the pigskin on downs. They fought
it back to the center and lost it on downs
to the Farraguts.
-- The home team lost ground and was
forced to punt. The Oaklands gained
steadily, but lost the ball on tumble to
Kavanagh, who gained forty yards. The
Farraguts went up to the 15-yard line,
where the Oaklands made stand and got
the ball. They forced it back 20 the CEN
ter, but the whistle blew for the end of the
half before eithsr side could score.

CRIPPLE CREEK, Colo, April H.
The blizzard here to-day was the most de-
structive in the history OF the gold camp,
and fears are entertained that lives have
been lost in the hills surrounding the
town.
Scores of small buildings were blown
down, some totally wrecked, others
partly, while the snow, driven by wlnd
of sixty miles velocity per hour, made 1t
impossible TO see half length OF block.
Loose lumber was scattered and tlmDers
were carried away by the dozens.
To add to the excitement several fires
broke out, but were extinguished. Excite
ment was at fever heat when the Cripple
Creek Commission House, three story
building, was crushed like an egg by the
wind and took fire.
The Boston Cafe was partly wrecked and
large lodging-house on Warren avenue,
near Fourth street, was blown over and
several of the occupants injured.
On all sides shafthouses had been blown
down and demolished by the gale which
swept down from the snowy ranges, and 1t
is feared that men who lived alone in tent
houses were exposed to the Arctic blast
by having their houses blown away.
Trees have been broken, twisted and
carried long distances by the blizzard.
In Victor the effects of the storm were
terrible, the town lying in hollow. down
which the wind swept like hurricane,
tea ring buildings to pieces.
