Mr.. Hanna and the Preachers

Mr.. Hanna and the PrescEcrs-
Late news from Philadelphia indicates
that the Hon. Mark Hanna is going to
have trouble with. the preachers of that
town il he does not move cautiously from
this time forward. Two or three weeks
ago his press agent announced that Mr..
Hanna had discovered in Philadelphia the
preacher who opened the first Republican
Convention with prayer, and that this
venerable parscn would open the conven-
ton on June 10 with an eloquent appeal
to the Almighty. 1t turns out, however,
that this preacher is; too old and infirm
TO perform the-part assigned him by Mr..
Hanna, but that Mr.. Hanna has not cor
rected the announcement concerning him.
Until he does this it is said no other
Philadelphia preacher will volunteer his
services in behalf of Mr. Hanna's conven-
tim. Even II MIR. Hanna does conclude
not to insist upon the infirm minister de-
liyering the opening prayer. he is liable
10 be confronted with embarrassment when
he selects somebody else for this duty
Under the advice of Mayor Ashbridge the
Philadelphia preachers will hold a meeting
before the convention assemblies and select
from among their number the men who
are to do the praying for the delegates
and candidates. II Is said that Mr.. Hanna
regards this as an infringement upon his
privileges and that he wants to be free to
select anybody he pleases to offer prayer
Therefore. he may invite some preachers
from Ohio to attend the convention and
take turns at duplicating the throne of
grace II he does this he will have cause
TO regret it. unless Mayor Ashbridge can
induce the Philadelphia preachers to be-
leve that when he asked them to select
the chaplains of the convention he was not
aware that he was interfering with the
prerogativcs of the party managers.

Normal II. Hudson High 0.


A more perfect day for football
day could hardly be imagined than
last Saturday. Clear and bracing,
with just breath of wind, 1t was a
delight to both player and spectator
The game between the Normal and
Hudson high, the second league game
Of the season, was pulled off on the
Normal campus at 300 z. NJ. The
| Normal team was still sore from its de-
| feat at the hands of the local high the
week before, but went into the game
with grim determination to recover
lost ground. The Hudson team was
the lighter, but the more confident.
Some of them had seen the game the
week before, and were free to say that
they would win. Normal won the toss
and chose south goal, Hudson kicking
off. Normal got the ball and immed-
lately started towards Hudson goal.
About the middle of the field they
lost the ball on downs, but got it
again Immediately in the same way.
Little by little they neared the coveted
line, but inside the five-yard line Hud-
son put up some splendid defence, and
Normal was obliged to kick: Ensign
was true, however, and the kick scored
8 for Normal The rest OF the half
was tiercely infested, with odds in IA
vor Of Normal. In the second half,
Normal got to work little faster, and
scored two touch downs in 10 minutes.
Then Hudson took a brace and for a
time it looked as though they might
score, as they tore through Normal
line again and again. Inside the ten
yard line they were held and forced to
kick. The kick was a good one, but
by three feet Normal then brought
the ball out and the game was over
In defensive work the teams were
about equal, but Norm ais weight and
otfense won the game. Next Saturday
Normal has big proposition on, as it
plays at New Richmond. The local
high has as hard nut to crack. for it
goes to Hammond Local fans think
that the Normal stands the best
chance to win, both on account of con-
dition and what they are going
against. 1t would be hard to find any
here who think either team will win,
unless 1t is some of their dearest
friends, the only thing that most ex-
pect being that both teams will make
their opponents play ball.

Attention. Citizens!

To the Inhabitants OF River Falls:
We have been highly favored the past
season as regards the health of the
city. We have had n 0 Diptheria,
Scarlet Fever, Typhoid Fever or any
contagious diseases. As winter APP
proaches let US have all cess-pools,
closets, and such like places thorough
~ cleaned The extreme heat, the
wet weather, and the absence of early
frosts, have caused an unusual
amount of decaying matter to accumu-
late: the excessive rains have washed
some.of this into wells. We all know
the effects Of bad water upon the
health. Clean out all such wells.
Now If everybody interested will at
tend to these suggestions promptly l
won't have to put on war paint this
fall. e. ALLEN TOBY, Nj. ID.
