East Side,
North Side Is Defeated.

Superior weight, and the frequent fun
bles of their opponents, enabled st.
Thomas to gain a victory over the North
Side high school team yesterday after
noon on the St. Thomas grounds. North
Side played fast, scientific game, but lost
several chances to score by their fumbling.
Casey at left half was the star for St.
Thomas, making good gains whenever he
was given the ball. Pennington.
O'Shaugnessy and Griffin also proved
themselves able ground gamers. St.
Thomas kicked off in the first half to
North Sides ten yard line. The high
school fumbled at their own twenty five
yard line and St. Thomas attacked the
line t1ercely. In two minutes, by a sue
cession Of tackle plays, the ball was
pushed over, Pennington making the
touchdown, and kicking goal. For the re-
mainder Of the half the ball 4seesawed
around the center of the field. At one
time North Side found a weak spot in the
line, and was making good gains when
the ball was lost by tumble on the
Saints twenty yard line. gs4@.,'}:;,;r.
In the second half St. Thomas, worked
up to the center Of the field by hard line
smashes. On the third down, with three
yards to gain, Casey broke through and
ran fifty yards for the second touchdown.
Pennington again kicked goal making the
score II to 0. g..
Then North Side braced in earnest They
lost the ball once on tumble, but soon
regained it, and hammered the tackles and
guards in vicious style. With the ball on
the ten yard line Ertle saved ;l1is team

A \ extraordinary adray took place

This place has latterIy earned an evil
repute as harboring a band of cattle and
horse thieves, who systematically raid

The rural police took little notice OF
the complaints of the victims. and the
latter therefore took the matter Of
chastisement into their own hands.
They organized an overwhelming attack

evil which is now at its yearly zenith.
When one considers that the peasant s
horse Is almost his only property and
his chief instrument OF labor, one can
understand his bitter hatred Of the
horsethief. His hatred is nourished and
famed to fury by the knowledge Of the
light punishment which the Russian law
provides for horse stealing This Is the
explanation Of the presence Of lynch
law in Russia and Of its recent violent
manifestation.
The mode OF lynch law most prevails

During the forcnoons Sir. Chamberlain

which is part and parcel Of the seaman's
