ATHLETIC NOTES.
No Game with o. s. e. This Time :
Cannot C0me-0ther Games to be
Arranged If Possible.

@. 5. u. will not be here this week
to play ball. A telegram was received
by Manager Brown this morning
which stated that they could not
come SO that the contest was declared
off. 1t is a pity as the team would
have made a very close hustle for the
victory.
Efforts are being made to get Way
nesburg or Homestead for a game.
The latter If played will be brought
here. The team is d very strong one
and will make it interesting for the
home boys who have not lost game
at home nor to college team any
where,
A subscription paper was started
this morning to raise the money that
has been advanced by the manager to
start the team and keep it going.
One hundred dollars were required to
equip it at the beginning of the sea
son and since then great deal more
has been spent to keep it up. The
response has been hearty as it should
have been.

RESULT OF a PRAYER.
Rumored Minister Who Invoked
Lightning Against A Brewery viii
Be Sued.

STRouDsBuRG, May 23.-The mem
bers of the Women's Christian TEN
perance Union and church people in
general were aroused to day by a
report that Rev. K. E. Dixon Meth
odist clergyman of East Strouds-
burg, will be called upon to defend
in court prayer offered calling for
divine vengeance on the big brewery
which is now being built by local
capitalists. An official of the brew
cry company denied that such a
move was in contemplation.
Rev. Mr.. Dixon said to-day: at
any such action is brought it will
have to be brought by others than
the capitalists building the brewery,
for while they propose to engage in
business that will beggar children
and curse homes, they are not in
sane. Besides, there are scores of
people praying against the brewery"
Capitalists recently erected large
brewery in Rev. Mr.. Dixon's parish.
1t was made the object of vehe-
ment prayer from the minister, in
which he called upon God to strike
the building with lightning. Shortly
afterwards, during storm, light
ming struck the brewery, partially
wrecking it.

that Judge Tavenner will withdraw
