Alma 10, Ithaca o.

Twice in the first.h half the pigskin YVES
pushed over the Ithaca goal line. Ten
to nothing was the score at the end OF
the half, our high school ahead. Alma
won the game hands down, neither side
scoring in the second half. Our goal
was in danger at no stage Of the game.
When Ithaca had the ball on kickoff or
on tumble, they took it not once on
downs. 1t seldom took more than three,
never more than six downs to relieve
them of the duty Of carrying it further.
Behind our line Fuller and Downing
did excellent work, offensive and de-
fensive. Hard and Tinker, the halves,
also did good service. Although Ithaca
had some good players, strangely good
for high school boys. our line was too
much for them and every time the ball
was snapped, whichever side had it, the
whole Alma line moved ahead a few
feet, causing the opponents to drop
back. Our boys have good team and
they won because they deserve to win
When Ithaca visits us they can do it
again.

Alma at the Synod.
Fine Showing made by the College at MI
Clemens

Fine Showing made by the College at MI.
Clemens
The Synod of Michigan which met at
Mt. Clemens last week from Oct. 10th to
l4th, enjoyed hearing what proved by
far the most enjoyable report from
Alma college to which it had ever list
ened
Pres. Bruske took for the subject of
his annual address, "The Failures of
Alma college" The tone of the address
was however far from pessimistic, con-
sisting chiefly of an enumeration of the
difficulties encountered by the institution
some of which had been already over.
come while others were still to be con-
bated. Foremost among the latter was
the need of a permanent endowment OF
100000. Using the present endow
ment of $4,000 as nucleus, Mr.. A. w.
Wright promised, several years ago, the
sum of $500 on condition that enough
be raised to make the endowment $780,
600 and Mr.. n. b. Bradley of West
Bay City pledged S25, 900 under identical
conditions. Here the matter rested for
some time until Messrs. w. T. Knowlton
of Saginaw and Herman Heartt of Caro-
raised the amount to $4,000. The next
gift was from the firm of Wright &
Davis of Saginaw in which Mr.. Wright
and Mr.. G. II. Davis divided pledge
of s25, 900 equally between them. This
leaves $3.50 still unpledgec. The es.
tate of f. O. Stone of Saginaw consist
ing of Mrs f. @. Stone and MessrsS
George and E. p. Stone have, separate
from the general endowment, donated
$4,000 to be used as permanent sup
port for the position of lady principal.
The faculty also has the disposal of 10
endowed scholarships, for the benefit of
needy and deserving students.
AT the conclusion of this session the
Synod passed resolutions commencing
the college and its officers and COM
mending the President to the pulpits Of
the churches. The following were the
elections to fill vacancies in the board of
trustees, all for terms of four years |:
Hon. Russell A. Alger, Detroit; Jas.
Wylie, Grand Rapids j. M. Longyear,
Marquette A. w. Wright, Alma Leon.
ard Laurense, Detroit j. w. S. Pierson,
Stanton and John M. Kelton, West Bay
City. The Synod also appointed Hon.
s. NJ. Cutcheon of Detroit and the Rev.
VIM. Z. Jaquess of Albion, committee
of visitation to the college for the ensu-
ing year. At the end of the session it
was unanimously voted TO hold the next
annual meeting in Saginaw E. S., ad-
journing to Alma for one day to inspect
the college and lay the corner stone of
the new museum building.

Tribe of Ben-Hur.

During the past week two gentlemen
have been in Alma for the purpose of
organizing court Of the fraternal in
suranoe order called the Tribe of Ben
Hur." E. r. Day, state organizer, and
w. Campbell were the two gentlemen
and they report having met with enough
encouragement to proceed with the
work. The headquarters of the society
is at Charlottesville, Ind, the home of
Gen. Lew Wallace, author Of the mar
velous book "Ben-Hur, a tale of the
Christ, and the sublime lessons drawn
from this book are clearly set forth in
the ritualistic work. The Tribe of Ben
Hur is strictly fraternal and beneficial
order but differs somewhat from other
fraternal insurance societies.

Triumphant Result of Saturdays Football
Game.

The rooters who gathered on the cam
pus last Saturday, carried with them
hearts oppressed with fearful doubt. A
team composed almost entirely OF new
men, without having played game or
even put up a satisfactory practice were
to line up against a heavy team COM
posed chiefly of old college men repre-
senting the Mt. Pleasant Normal. Many
were the fervent wishes that went up
as the new team formed to take the kick
OFF, for Olmstead, Macdonald, Crane or
Magaw, the stars of last years reliables,
but Captain Sidebotham's men soon
showed that they had the right material
in their makeup. Elliott kicked off for
Mt. Pleasant and Alma made their first
touchdown, after losing the ball several
time, in l3 minutes, the chief feature
being Bobby" McKees long rush
through righ tackle, dragging the whole
Mt. Peasant team for over % yards.
siderably less time, but Wells failed on
the goal. In the second half similar
tactics were employed and three more
touchdowns were made from which two
more goals were kicked. One remarkable
feature of the second half was the length
of time Mt. Pleasant could keep the ball
without appreciable gain. For Alma,
Wells, Foote Mckee and Brown especi.
ally distinguished themselves; while
Elliott and Prof Pray were Mt. Pleas
ants best men.
Final score, Alma 2S, Mt. Pleasant O..

AS TO DEMONSTRA TIONS.

Speaking for itself, The COMMON
WEALTH does not desire Publications
and demonstrations oyer the results OF
the election.
We felt vitality interested in the issue
before us and we did our little best in
the fight but now that we have won
so glorious!y and our victory is so COM
plete, we perfer to turn to the future
and lay hands to the great work that
is before us and that demands oul
strongest efforts and our greatest
skill.
But, as we have said in another article
on this page, the colored people are not
to be molested if they are orderly; ano
any jollification or demonstrations O
ioy at the result OF the election
on the part of any who may
be h,lariously inclined, need not be
construed by the colored people as
menace to them in any way.
THE COMMONWEALTH counsels all t.
be conservative and. guarded in theil
expressi0ns Let there be nothing
done or said that will irritate o.
disturb any, white or black and let al
settle down to the quiet pursuits o
every day life as though it were mat
ter of course that the result shoule
be as it has been.
We believe that the happy outcome
O: the crisis through which we have
t., passed is a matter for profound
thanksgiving rather than a display o
any disposition OF 1eSelry.
Let Us all thank Col Tor a righteous
victory and turn to the future for bet
ter thin gs.

PRAISES THE PRESS.

Wilmington Messenger.
We do not think that the democrat
ic state press was eyer ST. earnest and
so instrumental and so bold tor the
right as in the late campaign. It did
splendid work for the restoration OF
honest, good government and for
the supremacy of the White Race.
Whatever may happen in any partlc.
ular locality hereafter it isq ute certain
that no other battle will haye to be
fought and won for the rule OF the
White Men in North Carolina. The
press did most important work and de-
serves we'll of the people.

DEMOCRATIC I!AJORITY.

The Democratic majority III the
Stare, according to the best figures we
have obtained, is 10000.
