Elks and Y. M. c. A. Teams Ready
For the Fray.
GAME WILL BE DECISIVE
THE WINNERS WILL CARRY OFF
THE CHAMPIONSHIP.
Teams Are Pretty Evenly Matched In
Weight and strength-Elks Have
Been Strengthened, But the Chris
tians Are the Favorites-Athlet-
les and B. Y. Teams.


The real battle of the heavyweights
occurs on the Fort Douglas gridiron
this afternoon at o'clock, when the
Ellls and Y. M. c. A. elevens will face
one another for the deciding game of
their series
This is the third contest of the season
between these two noted local elevens.
The first game was easy for the Chris
tians, the score being 40 to in their
favor.
The second game took place in Og-
den ten days ago, and the Elks sprung
big surprise by playing the wearers
of the blue and white to a standstill,
neither eleven being able to carry the
pigsking over the coveted goal line.
The managers of the two teams
agreed to allow the Thanksgiving day
game to decide the championship On
this account, the game will be fiercely
fought on, both sides.
In regard to the weight of the con-
tending teams, the Y. M. c. A. have a
shade the advantage over their oppo-
nents, but it is so slight that they will
be little benefited by it.
On the line, the Elks average III
pounds,s while their contestants out
weigh them by five pounds.
Behind the line, the Elks average 16S
and the Y NJ c. A 1877 pounds.
In physical strength, the elevens are
evenly matched and, since the weights
are so nearly balanced, the result should
depend upon the science of the teams.
The Elks without doubt are inferior
in this respect, and on paper it appears
as if they would be defeated by a
good, round score.

PURITAN PEOPLE.

the Salvation Army of Clothing.

Exercises commemorative of Thanks
giving time were quite generally rem

city. The programmes consisted in
great part of the origin of Thanksgiv-
ing day, the customs and manners of
the Puritan people, and the significance
which attaches to the occasion. Puri-
tan literature has, for the past few
weeks, been made the basis of language
exercises, and these were utilized in
the various programmes rendered.
But the GROWING feature of the day
was the distribution through the Sal

clothes and necessaries for the poor
All buildings contributed to the worthy
cause, and many loads were collected
through this agency. Hundreds of tick

WHITAKER IS FOR POWERS
ADDRESSES A LETTER TO MEM
BERs OF THE LEGISLATURE.
Urging Them to Support the Judge
and Giving His Reasons For the
Request.

Ex-State Senator Whitaker, who re-
signed in order to accept the nomina-
ton for county commissioner of Salt
Lake county, is a strong supporter Of
Judge Powers for the Unitsd States
senatorship, and in the intel est of the
judge has sent the following letter to
the members of the legislature:
Salt Lake City, Utah, Nov. %, 1898.
Dear Sir-My excuse in writing to
you is my we'll known friendship for
one of the gentlemen who will be a
candidate before the legislature for the
position of United States senator,
coupled with my firm belief that he is
the logical candidate, and that his cleo
ton will benefit the Democratic party
and the state.
The man to whom I refer is Judge o.
W. Powers and after l have given my
reasons for being earnest in support
ing him, 1 believe that you will say
that 1 would be unworthy of a good
friend if 1 did not write this letter.
When [ was first nominated by the
Democratic party for the legislature of
Utah l was not very well acquainted
with Judge Powers, but as l was being
urged for the place by the laboring men
of our city a committee of that ele-
ment went to Judge Powers and asked
him to nominate me. He made himself
acquainted with me and put my name
in nomination. | was defeated at that
election, and Judge Powers helped me
to get the nomination in 1896. L was
elected, and would have voted for him
for United States senator at that time
if he had not urged me to vote for an
other Democrat.
1 had the long term for the state
senate, and if l had not resigned the
place this fall 1 would have been for
Judge Powers from the beginning to
the end of the contest. went to him
before our county convention and told
him that my friends thought that l
could be nominated for county com
missioner of Salt Lake county 1 said
that the position would be a great aid
to me, but I did not want to take it
without his consent, because if L re-
manned in the senate he would not have
stronger friend. He replied to me

Lincoln School.

The exercises at this school were of
an interesting character. In Miss Law
sons room patrons were treated to
some exercises in sense training, after
which the little people told short stories
Of the PuIitans and read short SEN
fences illustrative of Thanksgiving. In
the rooms taught by Misses Duncan
and Hutchinson a joint programme was
arranged, each room taking part. In
the rooms of Misses Connolly, Kendell
and Manning, exercises were rendered
which partook of the stirring times in
which the Pilgrims bore conspicuous
part. Mr.. Nelson's room, as well as
that OF Miss Clark, prepared suitable
programmes for rendition, while in Miss
GTifhth'S room the following exercises
We're carried out, neatly executed
programme, with appropriate drawings
being prepared by Ripley Johnson:
Song, Thanksgiving Day." by
school; presidents proclamation, Louis
Wetzel; recitation, Lille Hunter; piano
solo, Arthur Frees; recitation, Rachel

tation, Sibyl Wetzel; violin solo, Emil
Frees; History of Thanksgiving Day."
Joshua Ashby; recitation, Clara An
gell; piano duet Arthur Frees and
reading of paper, Alice Nuthau.
The blackboards in all rooms were
neatly decorated with views of Puritan
men and women, their homes and
churches, pictures of the proverbial
turkey, the horn of plenty, the fruit
of the vine, the Mayflower while stan
zas of poetry illustrative of the times
also appeared, and added much to the
| occasion. In each of the rooms were
quite a large number of visitors, who
expressed themselves as being well
pleased.
These exercises completed, the pat
rons assembled in room Z, where
a parents meeting was held The
meeting was quite informal, brief dis
cussion taking place, in which topics of
interest to teachers and patrons were
considered. At the close d committee
was appointed to arrange for another
| meeting early in January, the members
consisting of Mr.. Canning and Mrs
Warthman, citizens, and Mr.. Nelson of
the Lincoln school
Quite large donation was made to
the poor, consisting of potatoes, apples,
onions, corn, coal, preserves and cloth
ing. The teachers, recognizing the
services of the janitor, Mr.. Graham,
presented him with a pair of fine tur-
keys, which were highly appreciated.

S0C0TRA STORY DENIED.
No Negotiations For Red Sea Coal
ing Station.

Washington, Nov. 2S.-An official de-
NAL is given to the story coming from
Vienna to London to the effect that the
United States government has been
negotiating with the British govern
ment for the lease of the island of So
cotra, off the eastern extremity of At
RIGA and near the southern entrance to
the Red Sea. So far as ascertained,
our government has made no overture
in that direction, and it has never even
given consideration to the advisability
of acquiring a coaling station in that
quarter of the world.
Still, now that the suggestion has
been given publicity, officers are not
wanting to come forward in advocacy
of some such proposition. There is rea-
son to suspect that in this particular
case the publication is really a feeler
intended to convey to the United States
in an indirect manner the disposition
of the British government to let us
have this island of Socotra on consid-
erations named, not only as an evidence
of good viii, but perhaps from the more
selfish motive of strengthening a ma
ton that might be a most valuable ally
in operations in the east.
