started up fer the season in earnest and
last Sunday twelve Of the members made
a run to the Anglers Club Capt Edward
S. Byrnes, has called run for this morn
ing over the course to be ridden in the
October century. The boys will leave the
clubhouse at o'clock for a quick trip
ever the course. Last Mondays meeting
of the club was well attended and a good
deal of important business transacted. The
club has purchased piano for the rooms
and there will be music at all times at the
centurions' headquarters.
The pool and other rooms will next week
undergo a complete oYerhauling. They
will be newly papered and carpeted and
when the winter sets in the road pluggers
will have a coy home
The interest that is being taken by the
members is very gratifying to all and the
membership each month is increasing. The
club will turn out in the Admiral Dewey
parade, and Captain Byrnes expects to
have thirty men in line in the club uni
forms, which consist of sweaters and stock
ings in orange and black with caps TO
match. Quite a large number of the mem
bers made objection to the changing OF the
clubs colors, but now that the majority
have won out the others have come to the
front like good members and will don the
handsome suits.
VIII H Wright, who has been laid up
for the past two weeks with a lame foot,
is improving somewhat. but it Will be
some time before this little road plugger will
be able to ride wheel. First Lieut.. Billy
O'Connor IS also unable to ride as he is
suffering with a severe cold, but with a
little care will be able TO ride in the pub

A fortnight ago the boys took a paper
chase over a cross country course and had
with them Harry Leo. of 'around the world
on a bike fame Mr.. Leo evidently never
struck very much sand in his trips across
the continent for it was impossible for him
TO hold the pace set by the road plugger
captain. TIE toxes had TO be caught and
held while the hounds visited a nearby
farmer and then and there there was a
corner on watermelons, tomatoes, ETC.

the foxes did full justice, the run was re-

Cadet Corps is determined this season to
put basketball team in the field which
will hold place at or near the top when
the final gong sounds over the league
series. He has a good field of players to
select from, and if the men work hard and
keep eyerlastingiy at their task he cannot
well help making a leader of the team.
All are well seasoned, and with the sew
eral seasons experience they have had they
will have a big advantage over teams not
so well trained.
Among those who have signifed an in
tention of trying for places on the team,
which places will be given only after
a thorough trying out, are: Rowland, Bou-
O'ConneH, Evans, Cooley, Walters Guista,
Collins and Thompson.

a football team in the field this fall which

great things. for the last team was very
strong and closed the season with a very
creditable record.
Among the players who will secure
places are Wheeler, a six-footer, who
weighs about 225 pounds and was power
on the Brown University nine. Durham
Will again take his place behind the line
and some of the new andsold men who are

Tho travelling statesmen of the United

our commerce and they make their power
felt upon legislation.
The drummers are arrayed almost solid
ly against the trusts, and for good reason
The combinations of once competing es-
tablishments have thrown thousands OF
drummers out of employment and caused
a reduction in the salaries of thousands Of
others.
The average travelling salesman, there

he is hitting back as hard as he can. The
great host of drummers who are moving
constantly among all classes of the peo-
pie. who are bright and well-informed
men and dead in earnest in their fight up
on trusts are sure to exert a powerful in

vote with the party which gives best as

sue which overshadows all others and they
will make themselves felt when this issue
