LOCALS LOSE GAME BY ONE POINT
Conshohocken Basketball Team Won
the Contest by Very Small
Margin

Wilmington lost to Conshonocken in
the fastest basketball game Of the sea-
son last night in Pyle's Cycle Academy
by one point, tho score being 22 to 21.
It was a game calculated to give the
admirers heart disease, and not until
the last minute OF play was It certain
who would win the game. Wilmington
played fast game, much better than
heretofore. and the result can be seen.
This is the. closest score seen at the
academy in many games.
Merthans, the new defense man, who
for five years was captain of the Du-
quesne Athletic Club, Of Pittsburg.
and who has the reputation Of being
one of few men who can successfully
hold down SANDY" Shields. of the New
York five, played a great game. 1t was
owing TO his fine defense work that
kept the score of the visitors down.
Reynolds, Holt, Harrison and Walker
also played a fine game, and If the
former can get down 10 his old form
of free throwing, the five in the cage
last night, with a little team work can
give any Of the other teams a run for
the final score. The summary:

Sacred Nuts OF Japan.

Although well known to travellers
and collectors OF curioSities, the horn
nut, or sacred nut" of Gapan was al
most wholly unknown to fruit and nut
dealers in this country prior to 1883,
when a New York commission mer-
chant received the first large consign-
ment. They are called sacred nuts
because used in certain forms of Jap
anese worship, where they are placed
on the altar and ignited. Being very
rich in oil, they burn with hot, blush
fame and give off a peculiar odor, the
fumes being supposed to rise as an ac-
ceptable incense to the gods. They
grow under water and have leaf like
an American lily, the form of the nut
itself being an almost exact counter
part of an Asian buffalo's head, droop-
ing horns and all. LII the raw state
they are hard and tasteless, but when
cooked the flavor resembles that OF
boiled chestnuts. They are said to r@-
tain their edible qualities for upward
of twenty years.

Sharp County record., 1902-06-06

At the State Bar Association,
held at Little Rock last week,
Hon. Farrar L. Mccain Of that
city, member Of the legislature
from Pulaski county introduced a
resolution, which was supported
unanimously, declaring it to be
unprofessional for a lawyer to
lobby in the Legislature, or try
for money to secure the passage
or defeat of any legislation. If
the seventy-five counties Of Ar
kansas elected the right sort of
men to represent them IN the
legislature, there would be no
occasion for the passage Of such
resolutions as that passed by the
State Bar Association. If all
legislators would follow their best
Judgment strictly, have no ears
for the professional lobbyist, and
keep their hands from behind
their backs, that distinguished
collection, the Arkansas legisla :
ture, would have a better reputa-
ton at home and abroad. The
professional lobbyist flourshes
only in the legislature that invites
his presence.
Sharp County record., 1902-06-06
THE JUDGES SALARY.

Below is an extract from the
report Of the judiciary committee
of the State Bar Association:
1.-THE most important question,
in the opinion of the committee,
which should receive immediate
attention from the Legislature, is
that of providing more adequate
salaries for the judges of the
supreme and circuit courts. The
salaries as now allowed by law
are wholly insufficient to enable
the judges to pay their living eX-
penses. They are lower than in
any other state in the Union,
with the exception Of two, and
advertise this state as a pauper
state, while our resources are
superior to those Of a majority of
the states and equal to those eff
the wcalthiest. In the opinion Of
your committee, the bar associa-
ton should express itself in no
uncertain tones on this subject
and should recommend an in
crease Of all judicial salaries up
to the maximum allowed by the
constitution"
