BOSTON. Nov. I5.-Footba,l ana college
athletics were discussed In several pulpits
in this city yesterday. and In every one OF
them the American Rugby game was in
dorsed. The two most notable preachers
who took this topic for their discourse
were Rev. DR. George Perrin, pastor of the
Every Day church. and Rev. DR. Brady.
pastor 81 The Peoples Temple the lead

TO my mind. this great popular inter-

future OF the game in this country for
some years 20 come. It Is idle TO think OF

there is mach popular interest"
Dr. Brady said.
If our universities would take this game

SECONDHAND MEN PROTEST.
Object to Being Regarded as Fences
for Reception Of stolen Goods.

The police have recently made number
OF captures of stolen goods in second-ha
stores. and as consequence the name Of
that class of tradesmen has apparently
come into bad odium. One of the legiti-
mate dealers writes the following commu-
nication to the Post-Inteiligencer:
MANY OF the dealers of secondhand
goods in this city feel that a great injus-
tice Is being done them by the frequent
and uncalled-for aspersions that are being
cast upon them by various articles that
are appearing in the newspapers OF the
city charging them. In effect. with being
fences for the reception of stolen goods. 1t
may be possible that there are people in
Seattle who will buy goods without assur-
ing themselves that they have not been
stalen. but IL such Is the case Ii does not
warrant this wholesale attack on the sec
ond-hand dealers. On the contrary, IL Is
well known that nearly all the second
hand dealers render every assistance to
the police In their power in detecting those
suspected Of stealing and In the return OF
stolen goods. A good illustration Of this
was seen a few days ago. when The propri-
etor of secondhand store on Main street
who had his suspicious aroused by the con-
duct of four men who had some clothing TO
sell followed them for nearly an hour
until he found an officer to arrest them.
The men proved TO be OIaFa, Brown,
HAYES and Williams, who were wanted fer
stealing from the Berkman and Friedman
clothing stores. The arrests were made BY
Officer Stuart. who would doubtless admit
the source of his information in this case

Christian Work in Omaha" was the
subject before the Seattle Ministerial As
ISOLATION at the Y. NJ. c. A. rooms ysszer-

rector of St. Marks church gave an inter-
esting address on the topic. in which ne
described some Of the methods used by
himself In church work in Omaha He
touched church finance. the development
OF the Sunday evening service and prac-
ucdl Christian socialism. His remarks
awakened discussion, particularly along
the lines OF securing a Saturday half
holiday and In reaching ncn-ehurch goers.
The discussion Of Mr.. Llwyd's address
revived an old question IN the Ministerial
Association. that has been discussed pro
and con on many different occasions. 1t
was this:
How many Seattle people attend
church,"
One minister made the assertion that
there were $1,000 people I'm Seattle who
never attend church. and that in the mat
ter Of church attendance Seattle Is q
heather city. This brought up the mat
ter OF street preaching. which was COM
menced last summer, and has been carried
on with more or less frequency ever since.
Rev. George II. Lee, wha has been an
earnest advocate Of street preaching on
the part of the regular Seattle pastors.

would preach on the streets In the even
ings they would have some of the bright
est men of Seattle among their hearers.

In connection with this forward move

sport derives its name from the large
spherical stones. called bowls that were
used rs implements of war by the ancient
Romans when repeiling an Invasion. In
times of peace these stones were used in
the athletic contests of the day much IN
the same manner as the shot and hammer
of 1897, In its earliest period the game re-
sembfed the modern boys game OF duck

rock AZ certain distance and rolling a
round stone at IL, the one coming nearest

ZIEGLER MAS NOT DROPPED.


Got Back Into the League Because
Coast Prizes Are Toe SMALL.
The c. A. c. c. have made it appear
that Ziegler was dropped. This caused
Ziesler to come out in an open letter, IN
which he says:
II myself thought 1t best to so back
into the old league while had chance,
for these reasons:
..F,rst-The new league of this Coast, as
far as ! can Judge. is about on its iast
legs.
..Secnnd-The prizes under the Coast
league are so small that when season 5

AMBROSE AND THE BARON.
A Personal Encounter Between the
Two Caused by Certain Artf-
cles in the Argus.

A. T. Ambrose, one of the owners OF the
Seattle Argus. and Baron Ivan de
Malchin had an encounter yester-
day afternoon on the street. over
the merits of certain articles which have
appeared in the Argus derogatory to De
Malehin's character. The baron has had
several broadsword contests in Seattle and
is quite athletic, though much smaller than
Ambrose.
The two men met in front of the Pioneer
building and De Malchin at once COM
menced to lash Ambrose with his tongue.
Ambrose promptly responded BIZ hit
ting him in the mouth. De NAL
chin says that Ambrose commenced the
fight by hitting him with his heavy cane.
Ambrose says that he dropped the cane
and led out with his fist for the baron's
jaw.
They went at it hammer and tongues
until separated by Officer Birdsali. The
fight only lasted few moments and Meth
er man was much hurt.
At the police station they gave $50 bonds
each for appearance in court on the charge
of fighting.
