MONTEzUMA's BALL GAME.


In the ruins of Uxmal and Chichen
Itaz, Yucatan, there are supposed to
have been inclOsed immense gymna-
Sums or apartments where many kinds
of games were played. Inserted in the
longer walls midway between the ends
and twenty feet from the ground, where
sculptured stone rings that for a long
time baffled archaeologists as to even
conjectural use. The hole in the rings
at Chichen is one foot seven inches in
diameter, the two great openings exact
ly face each other, and the walls in
which the are inserted are thirty feet
thick PA feet long and l2O feet apart
Some of the explorers have claimed
that this great building was an I'M
finished temple, since it undoubtedly
contained idols set in inches. but it is
reasonable to assume that all buildings
of such size and Importance contained
idols, and that they were wOrshipped
and propiated with gifts in all sports,
as well as at times Of more serious I'M
dertakings.

ELKS FAIR DOUBTFUL
LODGE MAY NOT SECURE THE
STREETS DESIRED.
Mayor Joseph Will Not Act Without
Consent Of Property Owners,
and Matter Is Up to the
City Council.

The outlook for the proposed Street
Fair of the Montgomery Lodge of Elks
is not encouraging. Unless prospects
brighten the fair will not be held Ill
November nor upon any subsequent
date.
Mayor e. B. Joseph, several days ago,
declined to allow the lodge of Elks the
use of either Bib or Lee Streets for
the fair without the consent of the own
ers of the property abutting upon the
proposed Street Fair district. The spe-
cial committee from the Elks have car
ried the matter before the City Council.

use of the streets. 1t is understood that
Mayor Joseph will sign an ordinance
granting them that privilege If the Coun-
Gil adopts 1t.
The project Of holding the street fair
or carnival came before the lodge at
its last meeting The lodge looked upon
1t as business proposition. a method
of raising money which the lodge needs
A special committee consisting of W. J.

was appointed to arrange the prelimi-
nary details. 1t was this committee which
carried the lodges request to the Mayor
The Mayor was unwilling to grant the
petition without the consent of the ad-
Joining property owners.
The petition from the committee which
went before the Council at its meeting
Monday night was referred to the Com
mittee on Streets. which will report to
the Council at its meeting two weeks
hence.
In view OF these facts the Elks' COM
mittee is not sanguine that the street fair
or carnival will be held.
member of the special committee dis
cussing he situation yesterday afternoon
said.
''The proposed street fair or carnival
was merely business proposition with
the Elks The lodge saw in 1t a method
of raising money that vas needed. Mayor
Joseph saw fit to refuse permission for
the fair without conditions, which we
could hardly fulfil. We, of course. I'M
derstood that there was some opposition
to the holding of a street fair but the

to the State Department under date of
September 9. that the Acre question was
the chief topic of conversation there. The
Federal Government had issued an order

of customs duties is paid to Brazil. Large
quantities of American goods destined for
that country consequently were held up

We c. T. U. CONVENTION.
Two Important Resolutions Under
Consideration.


Portland, Me-, Oct. 22.-Much time was
devoted to two important resolutions by
the National w. C. T. U. here today.
Both were adopted. The first committed
the convention to the principles and prac-
tees of compulsory scientific temperance
instruction for all pupils in all public
schools of the country and opposed books
that do not teach total abstinence as
revealed by modern science
The second was THAT we respectfully
differ from the statement of President
Charles w. Elliott of Harvard Univer-
sity, that The attempt to teach total
abstinenc Elm the public schools has been
an injury to the teachings of science,
inasmuch as ideas concerning the effect
of alcohol were taught which could not
be proved" and remind the public that
the teachings on this subject in our pub
lie schools has the approval of men of
acknowledged eminence in science and has
never proved false. We believe its re-
moval from our schools would be ma
tional calamity which we pledge our
selves to do everything in our power to
avert

DEAD IN WITNESS CHAIR
NEGRO sUcCUMBs WHILE TEsTI-
FLYING BEFORE GRAND JURY.
Anderson Jones, Well Known
Butcher, Stricken at the Court
House-Was Prominent
Man of His Race.

While testifying before the Grand Jury
of Montgomery County. Anderson Jones,
a,negro butcher fell dead yesterday. Heart
failure is the cause ascribed for his
death. la4sas
Jones had been waiting outside Of the
grand jury room all morning to testify
before that body. it Is said, in reference
to the stealing Of COW. Finally he was
called by the bailiff of the jury. He took
his seat In the witness chair and for 1--WE
minutes answered the questions propoun-
ded by Special Solicitor w. w. Pearson.
Suddenly the negro was seen to grasp
the arms of the chair, gasp for breath
and fell back unconscious.
The grand Jurors saw that something
was the matter with the witness. He
was hastily taken into the Circuit Court
room, where he was laid on the floor.
Physicians were summoned, but before
their arrival, Anderson Jones was dead.
Coroner w. H. Tice was summoned and
after an examination, he rendered YER
dict of death from heart failure. A negro
undertaken was called and the body was
taken from the court room to his estab-
lishment, where the body was emblamed
and taken to the former home Of Jones
on Hall Street.
The dead negro had for years been re-
garded as one Of the steadiest and most
reliable negroes in Montgomery. He
was a butcher and through his intimacy
with trades in stock could give grand
juries much valuable information in re-
gard to the practice of cow stealing
among negroes. For several years he
had been on the subpoena docket of the
grand jury.
He was about so years Of age and was
popular among the negroes. He had
lived in Montgomery practically all of his
life, but never mixed in politics. His at
tention to business had made him one
of the most affluent negroes in Montgom-
cry. He leaves considerable real and per-
sonal property.
