but an error of tudgment-no worse; but
the press Of the country saw IL in anoth-

so. The unfortunate captain Of the
Brooklyn then and there conceived a
hatred Of Farragut, and later he made

Mr.. Black always possessed the
sincerest geniality. and his death is
a source of sorrow to all who knew
him. His wife, before marriage, was
Miss Anna, daughter Of Jonathan
Lemon. She died several years ago

children, Mrs. John w. Fortner, o.
Centrala; Isaac F. Black, of Morris,

Normal Bows to Kingston.
Defeated by the Seminary Boys Saturday
Afternoon.

Saturday afternoon, says the Wk-
kes- Barre Record, Wyoming Seminary
defeated her old-time rival, Blooms
burg Normal School on the gridiron-
a. to Sin an intensely exciting
game.
A crowd of over 100 people, the
largest crowd on Wyoming Field this
season, attended the game and saw a
fine exhibition of hard, fast foot ball
from the first whistle of the referee
until the end of the contest.
The first half was very close, each
side scoring touchdown and failing
at goal. During this half the Semi
nary line did not play as well as usual.
Bloomsbury made her game by hard
line bucks, and finally sent Breon on
q double pass around left end for her
only touchdown. In the second half
the Seminary team took a wonderful
brace and played all around the
Bloomsburg eleven. Seminary made
three touchdowns in this halt and by
hard luck missed fourth. Twenty
seconds before time was called Mar
shall made run of forty yards around
left end for a touchdown, but the
Bloomsburg ends were of-side and the
touchdown was not allowed.
The Bloomsbury boys put up a
stiff fight, but were weak on defensive
play and could do nothing with the
excellent interference OF the Seminary
eleven. When in possession OF the
ball they were generally able to make
small gains through the line, bu
found the Seminary ends unassailable
For the Normal School the playing o
Luloff, Breon, Robinson and Wagne
is worthy of mention.
The Seminary found in Bloomsbury
the most aggressive team she has me
on Wyoming Field this fall. II wa
excellent team work that brough
victory to the Seminary colors. Th
features of the game were the lon
runs of Simons and Maxwell and tn
line bucking of Hards.
Before the game the students, wit
their mascot. "Teddy Roosevelt" tn
mule, and headed by Druggist Evan
and the Forty Fort Cornet Banc
paraded the streets of Kingston an
escorted the contesting teams to tn
field.

Fight Between Trolley Companies

On November I4th bill in equity
was filed by the Catawissa & Blooms
burg Electric Street Railway Co.
against the Columbia & Montour
Electric Railway Co. and M. +. d.
Scaulan and +. l.. Mumma, trading
as NJ. f. ID. Scanlan & Co., praying
for an injunction to restrain the de-
PENDANTS from going on with the con
struction of their road, on the ground
that the plaintiffs, and not the de.
PENDANTS, have the right to occupy the
highway, under their charter. The
Columbia & Montour Co. was orga-
nized under the old law, and the other
company under the recent law.
Judge Lynch of Wilkes Barre was
on the bench specially presiding, and
he awarded preliminary injunction
as prayed for in the bill, and the In
junction was issued. November 10Th
was fixed for hearing, but on that
day Judge Lynch was unable to be
here, and the case was certified to
Judge Savidge of Sunbury, and mo
ton was made by the defendant:
counsel to dismiss the bill. The
Judges decision will probably be flied
on Monday. Messrs. Herring, Rhawr
and Small are counsel for the plain
tiffs, and Messrs. Scarlet and Duy
for the defendants.

Grass Used 20 Fight sand.

For centuries the countries by the sea
have endured the evils arising from
drifting sand and have sought with indif-
iefent success To lessen them. Ii seems.
however. that nature has provided an
ample remedy for her own cures in the
form of certain grasses that grow in
sandy wastes. Wherever they appear the
sand IS held intact. and it has been found
that it is possible to select and trans
plant these grasses so that the most law
less beaches may be held in control. BY
their aid the people Of Holland have
finally. secured their hard-earned country

nearly 100 years, France has transformed
