Senators Whose Opinions an a Live

Two United States Senators have
been among their constituents since
the adjournment of Congress and have
returned to Washington. Senator Hans
brough, of North Dakota, says the
people of the Northwest approve the
course of the administration in taking
the entire Philippines archipelago and
holding it. They see, he says, that it
was the only thing that this govern
ment could do with proper regard for
its duties and obligations toward the
Filipinos and the nations of the world.
They are satisfied the United Safes
should hold the Philippines and work
out the problem. The sentiment
which manifests itself among a few
people in the East, that the govern
ment should cast loose the archipelago
or should Immediately declare the pur-
pose to do so in the near future, Sem
ator HansbrOugh says, finds no echo
in his part of the country. Indorse-
ment of the administrations course.
the Senator affirms, is hearty and I'M
qualified.
The other Senator Is likewise a Re-
publican. He is telling in WASHINGTON
that If the administration does not de-
clare for a policy against retention of
the Philippines he will resign his seat

gradually dividing them up into small
er parcels and selling them only under
the pressure Of the assessment laws,
bnr the division is made so gradually
that the State, as Mr. Huntington
saws. suffers for want Of people.
If this railroad king should visit
these Islands, and see that the poor and
industrious immigrant could no. find
hardly an acre of land for sale on these
Islands, excepting in a few and remote
spots, at a price which he can afford to
pay, he would indulge in some pointed
remarks if called upon to make a
speech. He would say without hesita-
ton that the difficulties which retard
immigration to California increase five
fold in retarding immigration here.
But even these difficulties are not
insurmountable, either in the State of
California or in these Islands. When
the generation of crazy boomers in
California, who daily live in the ex-
pectatiOn that next year prices will
go up" are dead, and the great ranches
are divided by the force of taxation,
that State will find a rapid increase in
her population.
When the great ranches and sugar
interests here open their eyes for once,
and read that in the history of all
European and American emigration,
excepting for political reasons, the one
prominent idea that inspires the emf
grant is that of owning a home, and
they have the sense and wisdom to
build their interests upon the sure,
the tranquil, the intelligent labor of
men who own the soil, they will make
perpetual the prosperity of these ISL
ands. And if these interests refuse to
create such a condition they will find
themselves, in due course of time the
miserable slaves OF the Labor Unions,
and our insular position will aggra-
vate the friction it will cause.

If the advice given in those three
words is needed, good health will fol

reasons, principally, because it is con-

A GOOD FEATURE
Report of Board of Trade Will
Tell of Worcester as a City

The annual report of the Worcester
board of trade, which will be issued in
about six weeks, will embody a new
feature. In past years the report has
been confined exclusively to the work
of the board. In many instances peo-
pie have sent for the report, but have
not found sufficient detail regarding
Worcester as a city. This year a COM
mittee consisting of l. E. Comins,
George L. Brownell, Roger F. Upham.
George w. Mackintire and Charles E.
Squier, was appointed to look after the
compilation of statistics, which will
show i'll comparatively small space
what Worcester stands for as a city.
The question is considered under
three heads, Worcester as a manufac-
turing city, a mercantile city, and a
residence city, including the following
subjects: Population, growth, valuation,
school and financial departments, adj
vantages from a manufacturing stand
point, as q railroad centre and the
point reached by lines entering Wor-
cester cCal and express facilities, d.
versity of industry, banks, clearing
house, advantage for home of working
class, electric roads entering the city
and towns they connect with; educa-
tional Facilities, churches, clubs, drives,
park system and other features.

GOOD RUNNING
Holy Cross Athletes Make Fast
Time Across Country

Under the. most favorable weather
conditions. the first of the Holy Cross
Athletic Associations series of cross
country runs. which was postponed
from Tuesday on account of the bad
roads, was held yesterday afternoon at
230 o'clock. The distance run was
about three and a half miles over a
and, under the circumstances, the time,
II minutes. 6 seconds. was very good.
The run was an inter-elass affair, the
first 20 men in scoring points. The
freshmen GLASS won. tallying a total
of 70. The other classes represented
scored as follows: Special classics,
Latin course B. At; special classics,
Latin course A, 40; senior, So; first &C.
ademic, 20: junior, IA; second academic,
IA; third academic, 10. The race itself
brought out several surprises and dark
horses. Capt. John F. Murphy of the
college track team set the pace for the
first mile: Thomas Cannon of this city
then took the lead and broke away
from the bunch for about 200 yards,
but overrated his strength and weak
ened about half mile from the finish.
MacCorey, an old Boston English high
school runner. who ran second to Jere
Moynihan in the mile field day
at the oval, last October, climbed the
hill at the finish about Is yards ahead
of Francis McGovern, who took prom
inent places in the Worcester high
school runs last season. John A
Shields of Waterbury, a distance run
ner on last seasons track team, took
third place.
The point winners scored in the fol-
lowing order: Henry S. MacCorey,

receiving kicks and cuffs Mr.. Kinney
continued, "for receiving stolen prop
erty. We are here today to protect
game birds. Where can we do 1t, and
how can we do it unless we drive the
market hunter from the business? 1t
is not right for US to receive stolen
property. Let us take a stand and
keep it. The moral sentiment of the
state will be with US"
Mr.. Walls pertinently asked why the
constitutionality of such a law can be
questioned when Massachusetts, has on
its statute books a law preventing the
sale in this state and the expectation
to any place of Holsters not exceeding
10 inches in length, The aptness of the
question hit the sportsmen, and Mr.
Clark withdrew his objection and mo-
ton.
The resolutions were passed. The
delegates rendered the Massachusetts,
association a vote Of thanks for the
reception
In the meeting of the Massachusetts
association, the committee on nominal
lions reported the list to come up for
election next month. Mr.. Kinney of
this city is given a place on the ticket
for vice president.

MiIIbury Basket Ball Team De-
feated Before Large Crowd
at Father Mathew Hall

Father Mathew boys scored mag
nifcent victory last evening and 700
enthusiastic spectators made Father
Mathew hall ring when the Millbury
team went down in defeat. The victory
was all the sweeter to the home play
ers, as two of their number were feel
ing wretchedly before the contest
started, and were better candidates for
a sick bed than hot game of basket
BALL The men were Bradley and
Smith. They played and put up a good
game, and enjoyed the hearty sym
pathy of everybody present for doing
so.
Millbury played a good game, but
Father Mathew played better. The
visitors showed excellent passing abil-
ity, but had hard luck in shooting for
the cage. Their rivals We're troubled
with the same misfortune, however, so
the score was even on that point.
Millbury drew first blood, scoring a
field goal by pretty passing by Burt,
Williams and Horne, the latter caging
the ball. 1t was all they got in that
half, however, as the Father Mathew
lads outgeneraled them at every point.
Cullen did great forward work, scoring
two goals, one from right under the
basket and the other a hard one from
the side of the hall. A successful free
toss by Wiseman put the Worcester
team in the lead five points to two at
the end of the half.
. The second half was rough and fast
and fouls were frequent. Millbury
scored seven and Father Mathew half
a dozen. The latter team was the win
ner on the foul work, Wiseman throw
ing four goals, while Burtt got the ball
in the basket twice only. Burgoyne
threw two field goals in that half. one

Mr.. Kinney's remarks were received
with great applause, and there was no
doubt that he struck the keynote.

letters from sportsmen and deputies IN
various parts of the state, to snow the
necessity of action.
L. F. Herrick of this city made
pithy speech which went home to those
present with considerable force. He
said: Il am heartily in sympathy with
you In this work. l believe in the
prohibition of the sale of game and eX-
tending the close season. Sportsmen
of Worcester county, with the eXcep-
ton g pot hunters, agree with US. Inc
only way to accomplish anything is TO
unite and work hand in hand for the
Accomplishment of the same end. EY-
cry sportsman must see his senator and
representative, and get them to vote
for the right bill when it is intro
duced. We must not think that be-
cause we have como here, we have ac-
complished anything. We must go be-
fore the legislature and then the work
has just commenced We must see
that our senators and representatives
work for us"
Several others spoke in a similar
strain. John w. Adams Of Rutland,
president of the Farmers Club of that
town, spoke at length, and although
his address was somewhat disconnect-
ed. he hit the nail on the head so
squarely several times, that he drove
II home. He spoke for several min
utes on the necessity of protecting fish
from the washings which are poured
into clear and pure brooks by cheap
shoddy mills. He cited several of his
personal experiences to show how ma
terially the game birds and fish have
decreased in his town.
H. S. Fay of Marlboro gave spirited
address. He advocated shortening the
season to Dec. Is, instead of Dec. l, as
Mr.. Kinney had advocated. He argued
for the prohibition Of the sale of game
during the close season, instead of all
the time, as Mr.. Kinney had suggested.
Mr. Kinney asked him how the covers
could be replenished under such a law.
He finally agreed with Mr.. Kinney.
C. w. Walls spoke for the Worcester
Sportsman's club. He said more game
birds are killed in Worcester county
than in any other country of the state
He said he knew of a Worcester hunter
who had killed 40 birds in three sue
cessive days. He urged that December
be added to the close season. There
are more birds killed in that month
than In the rest of the season. The
birds are cold and slow to rise, and it
is an impossibility for them to get away
from a hunter.
A committee of five, of which Mr..
Kinney was made chairman, was ap-
pointed to bring In set of resolutions,
the gathering adjourning until after the
banquet and meeting Of the Massachu-
sets association.

a universal method of dancing the
quadrille until 1859, when the Imperial
Quadrille was introduced. BY that time
society had begun to tire OF the dance,
the lancerS having taken it's place in
public favor. This square dance was
danced for the first time in England at
a ball at the Turkish Embassy in 1850,
and while the figures were presented in
a most serious manner, as was the
fashion Of that day, they were voted
most attractive.
AS London learned how to dance the
new measures by keeping a close watch
upon Paris, so American society was
taught its new steps by London. While
the revolution had freed the colonies, it
had not changed the Anglo-SaXon
blood of the One-time cOlonists, and
neither they nor their descendants were
slow to take advantage of the innova-
lions in dancing that had come to
them from across the waters. for al
most as soon as a new dance was intro
duced in London we find it enjoying
as great, if not even greater, popular
ity in this country, While there were
several variations of the popular dances
that were originated in the United
States and were afterward transmitted
to Europe, where they were quickly
adopted by society
DANCES TO-DAY.
The cotillon did not make its appear
ance until after 1860, and the dance that
was first performed under that name
bore slight resem bIance to that which
is so familiar to US to-day. At present
the cotillon is nothing more than the
waltz, in which fancy figures are in
terpolated and during which little
gifts are presented, but in the old days
it took it's name from the fact that it
was danced by the ladies in short
skirts to initiate the gyrations of the
peasants.
This feature soon ceased to be recog-
nized as a requisite to the dance, how
ever, and within a few years it became
practically the same dance that we
know to-day. Ever since the creation
of the cOtillon, it has been a favorite
dance with people of the best society,
and there have been scores of famous
cotillons that deserve place in history
some for the costliness Of the pres

Picturesque afayettes

While this is undoubtedly true to an
extent, and while it was unquestionably
a great step from the graceful ceremo-
niousness of the minuet to the familiar,
jerlOy and violent polka, the new dance
became popular with a rapidity that
was simply startling.
1t would be natural to suppose that
certain young people would not be slow
to approve of it, but it was not danced
alone by young people. Grave diplo-
mats and sober matrOns caught the in
lection until at last even the sedate
Times newspaper was forced to admit
that the English people had gone polka
mad. It was about the year 1914 that
the polka first made its appearance in
the salon of a French duchess, and in
a few months from the date of its in
PRODUCTION to society it had become the
popular dance of Europe.
1t was about this time that the galop
began to be danced. 1t had been
known for years, but had not been re-
garded with much favor until atten-
ton was drawn to it by the polka.
After the polka, however, the favorite
dance was the quadrille, of which there
were many variations, including some
most elaborate figures. In fact at this
time every dancing master invented his
own steps, and there was no such thing

his time, as one might well imagine,
that the kissing dance achieved its
greatest popularity He composed dance
music, and spent large sums of money
to obtain graceful dancers for his fetes.
Similar stories might be told of almost
every monarch that has graced an
European throne, for with scarcely an
exception, they have been the leaders
of their subjects in the invention and
introduction of the new dances.
OLD DANCES.
In the first part of the century En-
peror Alexander of Russia visited Lon
don, and, with Princess Lieven as
partner, danced the waltz at Almack's
the most aristocratic place of resort in
England. The dance, although an old
one, it being merely variation of the
vote that had been so popular in
France during the sixteenth century,
was new to London society, but it i'm
mediately sprang into favor and super
ceded all other dances until 1915, when
Lady Jersey visited Paris and returned
with the quadrille-
Although bearing the same name,
there was very little relation between
the quadriIle of the early part of the
century and the measure through
which the men and women walk so
idly to-day. It's steps were intricate
and well marked, and to be a success
full dancer of the quadrille was an ac-
complishment of which any person
might well feel proud.
1t took but a short time for these
dances to cross the water after they
had once been introduced in London,
and it was about the same time that
we find them in the United States,
where they soon became popular as a
variation from the mOnotony of the
minuet and the reel There We're many
persons. however, who refused to give
their approval to the insidious waltz,
regarding it as a very improper exhibit
ton, and it was many years before it
was danced as generally in this coun-
try as it was in England.
At that time Paris led the world. and
from Paris came the polka, the dance
that has been said to have marked
the complete reaction from the dignity
of the old courtly regime to the care
less Iaxity of democratic freedom.
