GOOD BASKET BALL.
Strong New Britain Team Coming

Strong New Britain Team Coming
 Here Thanksgiving.
 The New Britain professional team is booked to play here Thanksgiving night. It is two or three years since this team played in Waterbury, all though many efforts were made to get them here. This is 9 hard team for the Waterbury boys to buck against for the first game. but Mr Dixon has lots of confidence in his team and says that if this old team does beat them, 1t will be by close margin, and they will have to work for it. The boys are getting into fine shape and by Thanksgiving will be in 4 1 condition. This will be the first cage game of basket ball played here, and people who have seen this game played in some Of the surrounding states say it is the most exciting and fast game. WaterWOrth is going to be in his old time form and with the developing of team work will play an even better game. Reeves is going to make q star guard and Mcfarland is already getting into team work Miles is working hard and keeping uD his reDu- tatiOn for speed and passing. Dews and Dixon are always in condition and can always be found at practice The first amateur game for the city cham piOnShip will be ThankSgiving night between the Clock Shop and the New England Watch Co. Both teams have q number of coming men and as they are about evenly matched there will he some fun. The teams so far en- tered are, Clock Shop.

Teams in Fine Fettle For the Games
 To-day

Providence, Nov 17.-With Captain Washburn on the sick list Browns chances to run up big score against Dartmouth do not seem so bright as earlier in the week. The Harvard game was decidedly encouraging, but the practice this week has not shown much snap, and the weak points of last Saturday offer a good opportunity to Dartmouth. The team left for Han over yesterday

New York, Nov 1T.-In a hotly con tested game yesterday afternoon New York university was defeated by Rut- gers college by the score of Ii to 0 at Ohio field. The home team was not only outplayed and outweighcd, but in poor physical condition. Three of the players were laid up with injuries. CleyCrdon, full back, was hurt ill the second half and weakened the team by having to retire. The Rutgers boys played q fast, snappy game, and did not give their opponents any breathing space between downs.

MiddletoWn, Nov 1.-The team that Wesleyan will send to face Williams in the championship game to-day will be quite a different team from the one that defeated Holy Cross. The men have improved both in offensive and defensive work during the past three days. The fuInbling. which was so prominent on last Saturday, has dis appeared and every man plays with q snap that has not been displayed be- fore this season. In short, the team is in the pink of conditinon.

A Pulpit Utterance Upon the Good in
 Such an Organization.

The wisdom in the propose d forma- ton of a Young Mems Christian Asso- citation in Phoenix was discussed by Rev Dr HalSey from the pulpit of the Baptist church last evening. He said , in part:
 Character is in part the result ot en- vironment. We should thank Gsd for cur environment. and should remember that We do cur Dart in making tn en- vironment of other men. We influence them for veal or for wo-.
 This Is a city of young men. Hun dreGs and thousands of them Jhrons dur streets Young men ar b se, by temptations as they are in f-w other cities. and there are opportunities for aiding young men such az are not of fered elsewhere. MultiJudes of young men go to the bad because the path that way is mdG= smooth for them They take the first downward step and the rest is easy.
 "Everything is wide open. Law makers are sometimes law breakers. Legislators too ofsen lead in the way of lawless indulgence.
 "The money required to sustain a Young Mems Christian Association would be economically expended from d business standpoint. TSe teus uf thousands wasted in saloons and gam bling halls might be us=J to build up our city and good citizens have the money. IT Phoenix can give Sl0.0g5 to a circus n one day it ought to be easy to raise money to build a church or a '. N. c \. building. Ten thousand dollars would endow a Young Men's Christian Association for twenty yeas One hundred active m mberS. Day inS n cents per month: fifty sustaining members paying S1 Der month, woHId insure the success of the undertaking.
 The work of the Young Mems Chris tian Association was explained and E. iusJrated. Its watchw0rd is The OK tension of Carlst's Kingdom among young men is office is To extend tine glad hand to and to speak the helpfui word to young men The worse foe which friends of this work have 10 dread is found in the criminal indiffer- ence of those who ouglt to aid in il. but who. not lifting a hand To help. stand Cf and criticiz= rhgs- who are trying t0 save young men"
