NEITHER SIDE SCORED,

tween the Harry Hillman Acad-
emy and the High School.

The Harry Hillman Academy foot
ball team of Wilkes Barre journeyed to
scranton and played the Scranton high
school warriors at Athletic park Sat
urday afternoon. The gridron was
two inches under water and the heavy
rain not only made it almost impossible
for the players to handle the pigskn,
but also made it vary uncOmfortabl BILE
for the few heroic people that ventured
out. Neither side scored.
Harry Hillman won the toss and
kicked off to the High school Bower

yards before being tackled. After re-
peatedly trying to batter down Harry
fiillman's line, High school was forced
to kick, the ball went out of bounds and
Thayer dropped on it. Owing to the
slippery condition of the pigskin each
side was prone TO tumble very often.
High school could do nothing against
Harry Hilman's defense and every
time they got the ball they were forced

l.. +. Bower, general superintendent
of the chalmers company's local
| plant. gave a common sense talk yes
terday afternoon on the temperance
question, as viewed from business
| standpoint at the quarterly convention
of the Catholic Total Abstinence soci-
eties of the First district, held in st.
Thomas College hall.
Mr.. Bower, who was introduced by
District President j. c. Gallagher, ex-
pressed his intention of looking at in
temperance from a purely business
standpoint without regard to its ethical
bearing or to the sorrow and suffering
which it causes.
He explained that the basis of all
| society is the individual and that any
government, church or society which
does not seek to improve the condition
of the individual will have to ultimate
ly confess defeat. He was delighted
to be able to talk to men who are
earnestly striving to better the indiv-
idual.
Mr.. Bower asserted that In all the
lines of industry there is getting to be
more and more of a demand not mere
ly for temperate men, but for men who
do not drink at all, and who are thus
able to persistently resist the subtle in
nuence of drink. He made some most
interesting references to Prof. Atwat-
er's researches regarding the food
value of alcohol.
ALCOHOL AS a FOOD.
I'VE see in the papers, said he, 1.-The
advertisements of certain manufacture
ers of liquors who quote Prof. Atwater
as saying that alcohol is food. and who
thus seek to make capital for them
selves out of his researches. Prof.
AtWater was one of my teachers at
college. and is today a warm personal
friend of mine. ! resent the subtle in
situation that he approves of the use
of alcohol. because / know that he
does no such thing.
Mr.. Bower explained at length the
professors experiments with man in
a cabinet whose food was carefully
weighed as well as all things thrown
off from the body for the purpose of
discovering the relative nutritve value
of various foods. He discovered that
alcohol taken in small quantities at
intervals far apart was assimilated by
the body. 1t was assimilated, however,
in quite another way than ordinary
food. in that it was turned into heat.
Heat" said Mr.. Bower. "is not food,
and alcohol has no function of food"
He said that no man more than the
business man is interested in the indiv-
duals forming a community. No man
more than the business man is desir-

MIR. GRANTS ADDRESS.

John w. Grant. of carbOndale. made
Il brief address on the total abstinence
movement from Il general viewpoint
and then Rev. j. J. Griffin was called
upon. Father Griffin spoke briefly, urg-
ing upon the delegates present the ne
cessity of taking more earnest inter
est in the welfare of the cadet societies
If the cadet societies are not kept in Il
tlourishing condition, he said, there is
every reason to believe that the total
abstinence cause may suffer great
losses.
He declared that the total abstinence
movement will never be the success it
should be until something more attract
i've than the saloon is offered To the
young men; until the rooms of the
societies offer attractions that will Off
set those of the grog shop.
Other brief addresses We're made by
Rev. j. Y. Moylan, Of North Scranton,
and by John Mcdonald, of Forest city.
The latter pleaded for cooperation be-
tween Protestant and catholic temper
ance organizations ana welcomed the
presence of Mr., Bower as a represen-
tatiye Protestant worker for the pro-
motion OF total abstinence.
1t was decided by the delegates to
assess each society SO to meet a de-
ficiency of nearly $500 created by the
district board in promoting the cause
of temperance.
ENTERTAINMENT BUREAU.
On recommendation of the board of
governors it was decided to create am
ent err 81 I'm ment burpau for the furniCb- =
ing of Ntalent for temperance rallies.
The president of each society in the
district will assist in the conduct of
this bureau.
Efforts were made TO have the con-
stitution so amended as to provide for
an annual per capita tax of fifteen
cents instead of five cents. and to pro-
vide for uniform constitution for
each separate society, but they We're

AT FIRST GLANCE
It Would Appear That Local Rem
 edies Would be Best for Cure of Catarrh.

It would seem at first glance that ca tarrh being a disease of the mucous memr brane, that salves, sprays. etc, being ap- piled directly to the membranes of the nose and throat would be the most ra- tiCnal treatment but this has been proven not to be true.
 The mucous membrane Is made and re- paired from the blood. and catarrh is a blood disease and any remedy to make a permanent cure must act on the blood. and when the blood is purified from catar- rhal poison. the secretions from the mu- cous membrane will become natural and healthy.
 In this climate, thousands of people seem scarcely ever free from some form of catarrh; it gets better at times but each winter becomes gradually deeper seated and after time the sufferer re- signs himself to 1t as a necessary evil.
 Catarrh cures are almost as numerous as catarrh sufferers, but are nearly all so inconvenient and ineffective as to rem der their use a nuisance nearly as annoy ing as catarrh itself; anyone who has used douches. sprays and powders will bear witness to tkeir inconvenience and failure to really cure.
 There are a number of excellent inter nal remedies for catarrh. but probably the best and certainly tho safest is new remedy composed of Red Gum. Blood Root and similar antiseptic remedies and other valuable catarrh specifies.
 This remedy is In tablet form, pleasant to the taste and sold by druggists under the name of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets. and anyone suffering from catarrh may use these tablets with absolute assurance that they contain no cocaine, opiate nor any poisonous mineral whatever.
 A leading druggist fin Albany speaking of catarrh cures says. T have sold vari- ous catarrh cures for years, but have new CT sold any which gave such general sat isfaction as Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, They contain in a pleasant, concentrated form, all the best and latest catarrh rem edies, and catarrh sufferers. who have used douches. sprays and salves. have been astonished at the quick relief and permanent results obtained after a week nse of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets" All druggists sell full sized packages for nfty cents. hu-s~S"'

University of Tennessee Wins.

Atlanta. Ga. Nov. 22.-In a game of in- cessant wrangling. the latter twenty min- utes of the time being played in darkness and slow drizzling rain, the University of Tennessee football team defeated the Georgia School of Technology here this afternoon by a score of 10 to 6.
 Heavy penalizing caused countless dis putes, the Pathological School claiming two touehdowns which were not consid- cred legal by the officials.
 The fast offensive work of the Tennes- see team in the first ten minutes of the second half carried the ball to their op- ponents eight-yard line but an off-side play gave the ball to the Pathological School. On their punt Quarterback Crawford of Tennessee carried the ball back twenty-five yards through field of Pathological players for a touchdown, but afterward failed to kick his goal
 In the next fifteen minutes play the Pathological School sent Thrash across for their touchdown. kicking goal.
 Every decision after this play was ques- toned by the contending sides. the Ten nessee team scoring their victory on Buckingham's touchdown in the last two minutes play.
 But few tricks were atts-npted both teams depending upon strong formations for their games.
