WANTED THE NAMES
How Police Raided One of Chi
Caqo'S Swell Functions

A night or two ago well-to-do Chicago
citizen, who lives on the west side, eele-
brated the anniversary of his marriage by
giving a fancy dress ball at his house.
While the festivities were in full swing
two policemen in uniform presented them
selves at the main entrance and demanded
an immediate interview with the host
well what's the matter?" said the lat
ter when he came to the door
Don't you know you are breaking the
law" said one of the policemen.
"Bre aking the law! What do you mean
How" cried the master of the house.
by allowing such scenes as are going
on inside" calmly replied the blue-coated
one, land we, shall have to insist that the
company be dismissed"
Every sorry. sir" added the second DO
liceman, but we have received our in
structions, and however unpleasant 1t
may be to you, we are compelled to carry
them out.
This is monstrousl said the host. 'Do
you know this is private house?''
I'VE do" answered the policeman who
had spoken first. land you must let us en-
ter. Our orders are to take the names of
all present"
"My good men," said the host, adopting
a tone of calm persuasion, you're making
great mistake. But you can enter and
take what names you like, and I win see
your chief about the matter in the morn
ing
Inc policeman thereupon stepped for
ward into the ball room. and the dance
that was in progress was stopped. The
host briefly explained the situation to his
startled guests, who resented the indig-
nifty of the interruption with much
warmth. Still. they gave their names to
the policemen, and anxiously waited for
further developments.
Having carefully entered the names in
his book. one of the men walked up to the
refreshment table and poured out glass
of champagne for himself and another for
his companion.
This was a liberty that enraged the host
and he went to the men and said: what
right have you two fellows to drink nv
wine?"
Il don't know about the right" was the
answer made by one of the policemen.
but we supposed when we were Invited
that refreshments were included" and
amid roar of laughter the two men pro-
duced their cards of invitation. They
were well known friends. and so effectual
had been their disguise that until the mo-
ment of self-disclosure no one in the room
had suspected them of being other than
real policemen.-Chicago Tribune.

|. A. w. MAY GIVE UP
Talk of Eliminating Racing in
Favor of Good Roads

Bicycle riders of this city who are
guessing on the position of the Associ-
ated Cycle clubs in regard to the ques-
ton of racing, had a morsel to discuss
yesterday Information comes from
New York of a quiet movement to re-
organize the League of American
Wheelmen. Those who are fostering the
movement plan to eliminate all mention
of cycle racing in the constitution and
bylaws of the organization. In the place
of racing, they propose to unfurl the
banner of good roads and to transform
the league into a national highway i'm
provement association. Incidentally it
lis intended that the. organization shall
continue to care for the rights and
privileges of bicycle riders, and, by for
eign alliances, maintain touring advan-
tages for it's members in other lands.
1t is also the purpose of those inter-
ested in the plan to continue the work
of building cycle paths in localities
where good roads are not Immediately
attainable
To lead this movement those who are
now identified with it are looking about
for a strong man. Such man, they say,
must be an easterner, and preferably a
New Yorker. Isaac B. Potter has re-
fused to become the pilot because of
professional engagements. Chief Consul
Bedding has declined for a similar rea-
son, Conway w Sans of Baltimore has
been proffered the honor, and has
begged to be excused. Sterling Elliott of
Boston has been talked of Two other
men only are prominently mentioned in
this connection. They are H. B. Fuller
ton, vice consul for New York state, and
George L. Cooke, chief consul for Rhode
Island.
Mr.. Fullerton has made a study of
road Improvement and cycle path
building He has largely been the means
of having many miles of splendid riding
paths constructed in Long Island. But
neither Mr.. Fullerton nor Mr.. Cooke
have yet consented to take charge of
the movement.

TWO HOT GAMES TONIGHT
Continuous Playing Of Basket
Ball at the Armory

Two hot basket ball contests are
booked for the armory this evening.
The City Guards and Wellington Ri
flies will oppose each other in one con-
test and the Emmett Guards and Bat
terry B teams in the other. The latter
teams will start first and the halls will
be played alternately in both matches,
the purpose being to make the playing
constant.
The Citys and Wellingtons are tied
for first place in the league, and the
other teams are also playing off a rub
Der, being tied for third place. The
board of directors have made prepar-
atoms TO accommodate a big crowd,
fearing another such crush as was at
the Thanksgiving night games. No
seats have been reserved and it will
be a case Of first come first served.

GREENWO0DS' POOL
Low Handicap Men Have a Good

The pool tournament Of the Green

through. Eight rounds have been

man must play game with every other

ACTION DEFERRED
Basket Ball Protest Goes Over
The Weeks Games

A meeting of the Central Massachu-
setts Basket Ball league was held at
the Sherwood house yesterday after
noon, but two clubs in the league were
not represented and those present did
not desire to take definite action on
any proposition. The protest of John
F. Crondn of Millbury, secretary of tile
league against the Father Mathew
team for playing six men in the Fa-
Their Mathew Millbury game several
weeks ago, was not taken up as Mr..
Trask of Milford, one of the three di-
rectors, was not present AS Mana
ger Thompson of Father Mathew team
is one OF the directors and will not
sit on the question, the protest was
laid over for another meeting.
There was a general discussion on
the rule which has been adopted since
the opening of the league season. 1t
was introduced by Manager Redican
of the Catholic Young Mems Lyceum
team, whose only purpose was to linn
it the membership of the clubs Of the
league TO six men each. But the in
depreciation of the rule has been as
varied as there are clubs in the league
and Yesterdays discussion was to ar
rive at some general understanding.
There will be two matches in Father
Mathew hall this week. This evening,
Hudson will play against Father Ma
thew team, and Thursday Fitchburg
will play against the Lyceums.
Manager Thompson has signed a new
man who is star basket ball player.
He is Dlonne of Lawrence, who was
held by Marlboro this season. Mana
ger Thompson purchased him from
Marlboro Saturday evening, when his
team played in Marlboro. Dionne
played in Marlboro and put UP good
game. He will strengthen the team
greatly and Manager Thompson ex
poets to be well up in the race before
the season is over.
The Lyceums have a tough PROPOSE
ton before them for Thursday evening,
but they are calmly awaiting the game
and expect to display the scalp of the
crack Fitchburg team. 1t will be the
first visit of the Fitchburg team to
Worcester. Basket ball fans have been
eagerly waiting the appearance of the
Fitchburg men as they make one of
the strongest teams in the league and
contest with them is sure to be fast
