POLICE MATTERS.
Cold Nights Increase the Number o
Lodgers Entertained BY the City.

Cold Nights Increase the Number of
Lodgers Entertained BY the City.
With the coming of cold weather the
number of tramps and itinerant mechan-
les cared for temporarily by the city will
increase rapidly. In fact, such a condi-
ton has already begun to show itself,
more than double the number of sstrav-
elers" having been lodged during the past
week than for any similar period since
early last spring. Applicants belonging
to this class have some interesting stories
to tell, but it is doubtful if the police
place much credence in the ranting rem
iniscences related by the individuals,
nearly every one of whom testifies to
having worked at his trade until a few
days before his arrival in Morristown.
The trade to which he refers is not often
one involving great deal of labor, this
latter quantity being manifest only in
his wanderings from town to town. But
he must live, and to do this, sleep and
rest are essential. Both are obtained by
those who apply at police headquarters,
and the itinerants are sent on their re-
spective ways rejoicing.
In addition to the dodgers entertained
the police have made number of arrests
since Friday last. On that day Officer
Morrison took in John Grimes for being
drunk and disorderly. Justice Cliff
fined the offender So and costs. Charles
Thomas and Hugh Hagan were captured
Howells barn on Ford avenue by
Officers Henderson, and Naughtan. A
charge Of disorderly conduct was pre-
ferred and the sentence imposed was four
days and costs.
On Saturday Thomas Connolly was
acting in such jubilant way that Off
Ger Campbell was obliged to put him
where he would be free from alchoholic
temptation. Justice Cliff thought the
unwilling visitor had better spend two
days in the county infirmary for recuper-
alton.
The town was not big enough to hold
James Coulter of Morris Plains on Sat.
urday night, but Officer Rolf did moi
consider this fact, for he was instrumen-
tai in consigning James to Jail for two
days. Jim was only drunk, but by
precedent established, the police will moi
tolerate this favorite pastime.

School 6.


School 6.
On Saturday, the 18th, the Morristown
School opened its football season on its
own grounds with game against the
South Orange High School, beating them
II to in twenty minute halves,
Both teams averaged about 10 pounds
and the game was good one, well
played throughout and quite free from
fumbling by the backs. During the first
half the Morristown players kept the
ball entirely within their opponents ter
ritory and by plays through the center
and around the ends soon made two
touchdowns. from which one goal was
kicked. The half ended with the ball in
possession Of the visitors, about two
yards from their own goal line.
In the second half South Orange
showed stronger staying powers, and
soon pushed the Morristown team down
the field for touchdown, which yielded
goal. Morristown then braced strong
ly and the spectators were treated to a
fine exhibition of hard playing by both
teams for the remainder of the game,
and they were SO evenly matched that
neither could gain much and time was
called with the ball near the center of
the field. The good team work done by
Morristown showed the results of care
full training by its coach, Mr.. Dickey,
Princeton's center of last year, and the
boys played quick, snappy game
throughout. The best work of the day
was the playing of H. Weekes at center,
Chase at left guard and Morris at full
back; the last named repeatedly plunged
into and hit the line hard for big gains.
Kobbe at right half made good end runs
and gains through the line, and as cap
tain handled the team we'll. The line up:

All things considered, to ship Spain s
Santiago army back home is probably
the best way to dispose of them. We
don't want them in this country under
any circumstances, and, besides, Spain
will be made to stand all the expense
of transporting them home in the war
indemnity. Moreover, it will show the
Spaniards that Americans are humane
and generous and at the same time
hold Spain's power in so profound
contempt as to willingly risk these
prisoners being armed and again sent
against them.

CHAMP CLARK ON THE IMPERIAL
POLICY

The Hon. Champ Clark, of Missouri.
in a recent open letter, gives his at
tention to the new policy of imperial
ism, which the Republican party has
adopted, and points cut its great dam
gers most effectively in very vigorous
language. In indicating the rank in
consistency of the Republican party in
the Hawaiian instance he says:
The Republican party claims now-since
emancipation has become popular and
since the vote of our brother in black
controls the elections in several close
States-that it waged for four years a
costly and bloody war to extirpate Afri-
can slavery from this country. In 1861
the claim was that awful war was for the
preservation of the Union. Indeed Abra-
ham Lincoln, the greatest of all Repub-
licans, dead or alive, so stated in his IA
nous and wonderful letter TO Horace
Greeley. So believing, hundreds of thous-
ands OF brave, patriotic Democrats helped
put down the rebellion, which could not
have been put down without them Now.
however, generally, but especially about
election time, the seductive tale is whis-
pered in the credulous ears Of Afro
Americans that the civil war was fought
solely to free them and that nobody did
and except Republicans. all Of which Ii
fable.
But II the civil war was carried On ia
