HIGH SCHOOL BOYS
ON GRIDIRON TODAY
WILL PLAY THIRD GAME AND
PROBABLY THE LAST OF THE
Seasonal VERY CLOSE CON-
TEST is EXPECTED.

The third and last game of the series
arranged between the elevens Of the
University High School and the Birming-
ham High School will be played at West
End this afternoon. Both of the games
played by these teams thus far have re-
suited in a tied score, and much inter-
est is centered upon this last game OF
the season on the home grounds.
The fine showing that these high
school teams have made against Howard
college and Marion Military institute at
test the playing qualities of these teams,
and those who have seen the previous
contests pronounce them comparable to
college games. It is confidently expected
that many lovers of football will wit
ness this last game of the season.
It is said that the city school team
has the advantage Of few pounds over
their opponents. though close and in
teresting game is sure to be the re-
suit.

OFFICIAL NOTICE RECEIVED.
Washington Gets Word From Great
Britain About Cattle.

Washington. December 2.-Official no.
tice of the action of the British govern
ment prohibiting the landing of live stock
from the New England states was receiv-
ed at the department of agriculture to-
day, through the state department. Act
ing Secretary Of Agriculture Willis L.
Moore Immediately issued the following
public notice:
1.-THE heads Of agriculture of Great Bril-
tain, in consequence of the outbreak of

land, has issued an order prohibiting the
landing in the United Kingdom of live
animals from Maine, New Hampshire,
Massachusetts, Vermont Rhode Island
and Connecticut The British board OF
agriculture asks that public announce
ment of this fact be made in this country.

A MILLION BARRELS.
Enormous Sales Give to schIitz Beer
the Leadership.

1t is announced by the Jos. Schlitz
Brewing Co. that over a million barrels
of Schlitz beer have been sold during
the year ending December l, 1902. There
is no other beer brewed in famous Mill
waukee which approaches this extent of
sales.
1t is not generally known that the
Schlitz brewery Is owned by five broth
ers who received their education In the
science of brewing in the best schools of
Europe Every department of this brew
cry, from the buying of the materials to
the bottling of the finished product, is in
direct charge of these practical men, the
owners of the business.
From the very start these men decided
to double the cost of ordinary brewing,
in order that Schlitz beer might be alb
solutely pure. They bored six wells
down to rock, in order to secure water
without a touch of impurity. They built
a plate glass room for cooling the beer
and arranged so that all the air which
touched the beer was passed first through
an air filter.
They built machine filters for thorough
" filtering the beer before it was bot
tied They installed the Pasteur system
for sterilizing every bottle after it Us
scaled.
They built refrigerating rooms of AGO.
900 barrels capacity, so that the beer
might be aged there for months before
1t was marketed. This was because beer
which is not sufficiently aged causes bill
liousness.
All this made Schlitz beer cost twice
as much in the brewing as common
beer need cost, and knowing ones said
that they could never make it pay. That
people cared little for purity.
The facts stated above indicate that
they have made it pay, and that people
do care for purity. %+%

SILVER STILL FLucTuATEs.
Premium On New York Exchange Was
Around 1863 Yesterday.

Mexico City, December 2-The premium
on New York exchange ranged around
LES and 1.69 today. There was little bust
ness done. although most of the mer-
chants regard silver as having "a small
chance of permanent recovery. The DOM
inant topic in business and financial cir
Giles is the gold standard, and how best to
get the country on a gold basis.
In one respect the struggle outlined
over the gold standard is one Of tie city
against the country; the large farmers
and planters. it is said, fear that the gold
standard even though the present dollars
are retained and given an artificial value
will cause a rise in the wages of their la
borers and hence they are strong parti-
sans of silver Every drop of a cent in
the value of silver means heavy loss to
the railways and other large corpora
items.

kEEREN CASE ARGUED.
Was involved In Alleged Frauds In
Kentucky During GoebeI's Campaign.

Cincinnati, December "A case in
volving the alleged Acknowledgement
of negroes in Louisville at the Goebel
election in 1899 was argued here to-
day before the United States circuit
court of appeals. The case is that OF
Il. Keeren, a democratic judge of cleo
ton in Louisville, who was found
guilty by the United States circuit
court of conspiracy to prevent negroes
from voting, and was sentenced to
fine and Imprisonment.
The case comes up on error, the
counsel claiming the United States
courts have no Jurisdiction because
no United States officers were being
chosen at that election. The opposing
claim is that Keernen's act is a viola
tion of the fifteenth amendment and
therefore properly before the United
States court.

welt and his cabinet at their meeting
today considered the case of Lieuten-

was tried by courtmartial for financial

that a court should be constituted to
inquire into his mental condition. That
court will be appointed by Secretary
Moody as soon as possible.
All the members of the cabinet ex-
cept Secretaries Root and Wilson were
present at the meeting Some time
was spent in considering appoint
ments, but it was said no announce
ment of the appointments would be
made from the White House.

house.
The story of the play is that of a young
colonial officer in the guise of a spy in

the love of two women both of whom,
one loyal to the king and the other to
the rebels remain true to him and final
ly succeed in extricating him from his
difficulties.
Howard Kyle as Henry Treveman, the
spy; Florence Smyth as Ruth Mifhn, and
