PLAYED WATER POLO,
New Game Inaugurated By Y. M. C.
A. Gymnasts.

At the sanitarium last evening water
polo received a local inauguration at
the hands of the Y NJ. c. A. gymna-
SUM class. Being the first game, there
We're a few rough edges noticeable, but
these will all be smoothed over in time
and the prospect is that considerable
interest will be aroused over the sport.
The two teams call themselves the nov
ices and the amateurs. The former con-
sists of Smith, captain and center:
Moore and Tuckett, forwards, and Mil
Ter and Bell, guards. Physical Direc-
tor Augustus is captain and plays
center for the latter, the remaining
members of his team being Lovey and
Wight, forwards; Cheshire and Ras-
mussen, guards.
The game is similar to basket ball, a
basket floating on the water at each
end of the course and the bone of con-
tention being an inflated leather ball.
The object is to maneuver in such a
way as to get the ball in the basket.
The game is a lively one and the boys
had great sport last night. The nov
ices won by d score of to 4.
Two fouls by Moore in the first half
won two points and two field throws
by Tuckett in the last half scored four
more. Rasmussen for the amateurs
succeeded in making one throw from
field and another was made by Wight
at the very end of the last half, thus
scoring the four points gained by the
amateurs.
The interest of the game. which was
witnessed by fair crowd of specta-
tors. centered about the last throw
made, when Wight barely succeeded in
making his point just as time was
called and the game ended with the
ball giving a. loud pop and going to
the bottom MINDLESS and fiat as a stove
lid.
Two ten-minute halves were played.
The teams play again next Wednesday

Not Willing to Stay.
Under date of March 10, my son
writes: Yesterday telegram came TO
our camp for the captain TO ask the
men how many were willing to stay for
six months longer and receive travel
pay of $500 each at the end of that time,
and there was only one man among US
all that was willing to stay" l stated
in my second letter to the president that
my son was not willing to be detained
any longer. 1t received no notice.
Under recent date, my son says:
1T is pouring down rain. We have
been wading the river with our clothes
on, and are all soaked TO the skin. We
are without shelter, but there is no
alternative but to roll up in our
drenched blankets and get what rest
we can, having to hold our noses, We
are SO close-a foot and a half away
to the half-buried Filipinos." Another
of late date says: IF right ruled. in
plain and urgent, l could easily obtain
my release
Thus, you see, my serious appeals
have been ignored, but shall not give
up. l don't believe those troops will be
returned this summer but 1 shall con-
tinue to work for the discharge of my
son as long as 1 have strength to do
so.
Senator Rawlins, I now ask you, if
you could exert your influence that
way, to obtain for me the discharge of
my son. His latest letters assure me
he is urgently DESTROYS of returning
home at once. This cause of our volun-
teers is certainly a just and vital one.
They have all proven that they are not
towards, and they should be considered
at once, without the stigma of disloy-
atty being attached to their names. The
war which is raging there is doubtful
in more than one sense, and the dan
gers are unusual and manifold.
If this hero worship, now becoming
so popular. could be metamorphosed
into an earnest and deep consideration
of the common soldier" who, on his
bread and bacon and SIS a month,
guards, cooks, submits like a slave to
those his reason will not acknowledge
as superior, and gives himself as a
target in a cause that will never be of
the least individual benefit, it might aid
IN the fostering of patriotism those
big-salaried officers, dwelling in pal
aces, are so pompouS about. Our vol
unteers every one is praising are not
likely TO repeat the experience they are
having now for a long time to come,

Sam to manage those boys with an eye
to the future. Their detention in those
far-away islands is illegal, and I will
not submit tamely to have this dear.

SHALL WOMEN RUN FOR OFFICE
QUESTION THAT AGITATES THE
DEMOCRATIC LADIES.
Recent Action of the Women's Club
Criticised By the Third Precinct
Members-Prospective Candidates

There is some feeling in the ranks of
the female Democracy over the recent
ratification of the resolutions in which
the club placed itself on record during
the last state campaign as opposed to
women with political ambitions using
the club to help themselves to fame.
1t is asserted by some of the Demo-
cratic ladies of the Third precinct that
there was no need of bringing up the
ancient matter again, and that the
reading of the document and the mo-
ton on it's ratification at last months
session would not have been allowed to
go through so peacefully had some of
the staunch representatives of this
ward been on hand. The resolutions, it
will be remembered, were introduced
by Mrs. George H. Wood, at meeting
held just before election. They stated
in most unqualified terms that the or
ganization was opposed to endorsing
the nomination of any woman for office,
simply because she is a woman, and
also to having the club used as a means
of assisting any member into public
favor
There was a good deal of feeling at
the time over the matter, and several
members of the club who were giving
houseroom to. ambitions Of greater or
less dimensions felt that this action had
dealt death blow to their fondest
hopes.
1t is now stated by some of the ag-
grieved that there were and are as
pirants for political honors in the ranks
of the Democracy who will not abide
by the action of the club as it is gener-
ally understood.
A prominent member of the club de-
clared yesterday that the incorporation
of the resolutions in the bylaws of the
club was direct slap at the lady
legislator" as well as against the sena-
torial representative; that one of the
society's most devoted representatives
would be a candidate for the city coun-
Gil this fall, while another fair deVotee
of the cause would present herself for
legislative honors at the next state
election.
Yet the majority of the members,
those who mothered the now
famous resolutions, seem to be opposed
to having women hold public office.
