BAD TEAM WORK CAUSES DEFEAT
Philadelphia Basketball Team Has a
Picnic With the Locals Satur-
dav NiPht

The Wilmington basketball team was
badly beaten I'M Philadelphia on Satur-
day night, the score being sc to T. The
locals did not seem to have any eye for
the basket at all, and the lack of team
work was noticeable at all times. Har-
rison tried to get them together, but
they were demoralized, and ran around
the cage like a lot of sheep. He will
put the team through a severe practice
on every night there is no game, and
hopes TO soon have them in champion
ship form The men are good individ-
ual players, but do not get together.

BY far the best football team that has

The visitors were heavier than the
Wilmington team, but they we're fast

I'm the first half pushed the home team
all over the lot, but they took brace
in the second half and only allowed
Shettsline's pets to make one touch
down.
Mullen and Mcclure did most Of the
tackllng for the local team, and MeaIs
was in the game at all stages, but from
the kick-off fl was certain the Phillies
would win in walk.

of football playing as practiced by the
big colleges, and although the game
was one-sided. yet it was full of inter

SCIENTISTS
British Association In Session
At Belfast, ireland.

Belfast, Sept. 1.-THE sectional meet
ings OF the British association for the
advancement OF science (Which opened its
72d annual meeting here yesterday were
well attended to hear the addresses OF
their respective presidents Many of
these contained complimentary refer
snces to the United States. which was
held up as the model which Great Bri-
tain sought 20 follow.
Professor II. E. Armstrong OF the edu-
cational section made the strong plea
for the injection OF some American life
and energy into the British educational
system and paid a high tribute to the
imaginative insight and foresight OF Our
American cousin, Captain Mahan." who
had taught the nation the true meaning
and value of sea power. I'VE need
some Maban." added Prof Armstrong,
Ito disfuss the larger issues OF national
defence through education. The ship OF
state is OF vastly greater consequence
than the mere navy. Yet, those who di-
rect attention to the insufficiency OF It's
armament are scarcely listened TO and
there Is not the slightest effort to secure
scientifically adjusted and orgnnically
complete machinery TO drill the crew,
which Is woefully incomplete owing to
the terrible absence Of organic action and
discipline"
Prof. Armstrong contended that what
British education today needed waS 10
appreciate the value OF scrap heap.
"Why can't we." continued the speaker,
follow the example Of the industrious
American manufacturer and agree 10
scrap osr scholastic and academic ideals,
Ar not our schools and school masters as
well. and refit along scientific lihesf
In support OF his contention that boye
ought TO leave school at IL and then go
70 college, Prof Armstrong said that
much OF the success OF Americans was
due 10 the way in which Republican doc
trines were applied In bringing up their
children adding: we should set our chl-
dren free. and encourage them to be free
at an early age"
Prof w u. Halliburton OF the physi-
oiogfcal section spoke highly OF the work
OF Prof, Loeb and his colleagues OF the
University OF Chicago in the new field
OF physical chemistry.

UNDUE
INFLUENCE
ALLEGED
HeIrs-at-Law Of Mary MCKenna
Charge That Conveyance Was
Obtained By Improper Methods.

James ]. McRenna. John It. McKenna
and william II. MoKenna OF this city.
psphews and heirs -at-law OF the late
Mary McKenna. have through Attorney
Peter c. Cannon filed a bill In equity, in
which some rather unusual charges
against Mary McMaugh Of this city are
made. The deceased and her sister
Catherine. we're unmarried and for a
great meny years lived together.
When Mary died on the 10th Of last
June she owned two houses at 7s0 At
wells avenue. Catherine died two years
before Mary. and upon GATHERINGS death
the respondent. Mary McMaugh. took
Mary McKenna TO live with her. AT the
time. II is alleged. Miss McKenna was In
very feeble health. having suffered sew
eral strokes of paralysis and being inca
pable OF doing any business Respondent
attended TO all Mary's affairs. and. II is
alleged four months after the latter went
to live with her and while the deceased
was in such mental and physical condi-
tion she could not read or write, Mary
McMaugh unduly Influenced her TO sign
q deed.
This deed gave the houses and lot to
the respondent and tho consideration
named was 800. 1t IL claimed that
there was q confidential relation existing
between the respondent and deceased.
and the securing OF the deed was q
breach Of confidence and was obtained by
undue influence Mary McKenna was so
years old at the time.
The complainants seek to have the
deed cancelled or the respondent obliged
10 make a reconveyance. also TO have
her account for the profits and to have
her deliver up all the personal property
OF the deceased. A restraining order was
obtained to prevent respondent from con-
veying the property and there will be
hearing on the question OF preliminary in
junction on Saturday next.
