SPORTS.

The High school basket ball team
added another victory to its string by
defeating the team of the Central High
school of Cleveland, by the onesided
score of "a TO 10. in Assembly hall,
Thursday night. The game was wit
messed by about 800 spectators and the
roofing was deafening.
The game was marked by an unusual
degree of roughness, and continual
wranglings on the part of the Cleve-
land team. The playing of the whole
local High school team deserves spe-
cial mention, although the team work
was ragged in the first half. Chap
man was the star of the local team.
He threw goals from the field Par
shall outplaycd his opponent despite
the fact that the Cleveland man was
considerably heavier. Fauver, Davies
and Williams also played nice game.
For Central High, Scott and Lane
played the best game. In the first
half, Scott made Il basket that was

"a DAY AND 4 NIdHT. :
One Of the Merriest Comedies to
Be Presented.

The latest of the Hoyt farces. "a
Day and a Night, is one Of the
merrlest of comedies, sparkling
with wit and satire. The story Of
the play concerns Marble Hart, the
son of Lyon Hart. who has been
quite frisky in bis Younger days,
and still delights to get out and
make Rome howl. His sons re-
ligious tendencies tire the old man
who desires the young man to see
the world. The younger man goes
to New York and tries to secure
singers tor the choir OF the church,
of which he is deacon. His father,
aided by a theatrical manager, in
PRODUCES him to a lot of chorus
girls. The young mans sweet
heart, former actress, joins the
company while he is present, and
to hide her identity masquerades
as a soubrette, and although the
young man says she looks very.
much like his Ada, she denies it,
but gives him practical lessons IN
how to make love to his sweetheart.
He proves an apt pupil. In fact the
fellow is thoroughbred, much to
the delight of his father. The sit
uations are exceedingly funny, and
many curious complications arise.
The comedy will be seen at Hol-
lands Opera House, Wednesday
night, February 10.

WANT cOnnlssION-
ERS REMOVED.

The Courier-Journal is authority
for the statement that the Senate
Committee on Charitable Institutions
will not only recommend the con-
6rmation of the lawless element
representing the administration in
the Western Asylum, but will rec
ommend the removal of the honest
commissioners, who have protected
the interests of the State during the
carnival of crime and immortality
that has disgraced the institution
No stream can be purer than its
source, but there ought to be
enough decent men in the Senate to
prevent a sewerage of gambling
and grating from flowing through
the insane asylums OF the State. If
the commissioners had consulted
their own pleasure, if they had
been less patriotic and less mindful
of their oaths, they would long
since have resigned in a body to
escape the vituperation that has
been poured upon them. The state
ment alleged TO have been made by
Mr.. H. ID. Hines that the editor of
this paper had notified Gov Beck
ham that "he would use his influ-
ence with the commissioners to
make war on him." has no founda-
ton whatever on truth. Three of
the commissioners, it is true, were
suggested by Mr.. Meacham, but
the Governor never appointed them
until they had been submitted to
his henchmen here and approved
by them. Mr.. Meacham displayed
no hostility" towards the admin =
tration until it was a year old and
bad become a defender of the crime
exposed in the Asylum. We have
had no communication with the Gov
ernOr. direct or indirect. since the
removal of Dr. Mccormick and the
whltewash proceedings that fol-
lowed that action Any statement
to the contrary is a malicious false
hood. In the meantime. it will be
interesting to see how the Governor
will 80 about removing the Board,
who have been appointed and con-
hrmed for stated terms and can
only be removed lawfully by i'm
parchment proceedings for cause.

The reports supposed to come from
artillery firing off the Capes Tuesday
was the heaviest ever heard by our
oldest people. Have subsequently,
learned that the firing referred to
was due to the inspection and drill
ling of the North Atlantic squadron
by Admiral Dewey.
Five gentlemen, who represent
about eight million dollars, dined at
Atlantic View" last Sunday. At
dinner something was said about at.
tending the church near by, and as
they had made other arrangements
for the afternoon, 1t was proposed, to
pass around the hat for a contribu-
ton, One Of the party proposed to
save that trouble by making it five"
This was agreed to and each one
handed to Mr.. G. Walter Mapp, who
was present, five dollars, making
$4,000, for delivery to the church
officials. This Mr.. Mapp did after a
few very appropriate remarks. The
congregation, through their pastor,
Rev. Mr.. VIM, accepted the donaN
ton with thanks.
