HOW FILIPINO BOYS
PLAY BASKETBALL.

Basket ball is a game that especial
" appeals to Filipino boys, but they
do not play it in the American syle.
In the first place, the ball is really
a small, hollow basket, made of wicker
work, and therefore extremely light.
An equal number of boys line up on
either side, and they kick the ball to
each other. the trick being to keep 1t
over on the other side Instead Of
forcing 1t forward, as boys do when
playing football here, the rules of the
Filipino game demand backward
kick, so that the boy must look over
his shoulder and strike out with his
heels, mule fashion.
Sometimes the Filipino boys have
lively skirmishes, in which the ball
does not get all the kicks.

TO DEEPEN CHANNEL,
Bill in House to Deepen the Quinnipiac
 River to Twenty Feet.

Bill in House to Deepen the Quinnipiac
 River to Twenty Feet.
 Washington, Jan. 14.-The question whether the war department could un- der existing law, provide twenty-foot channel in the Quinnipiac river has been settled at last by the chief of en- gineers. Congressman Sperry has been trying ever since his arrival here last December to induce the chief of engi- neers to grant this increased depth, as it is very much needed by manufact- urers along the river. The chief of en- gineers to-day, however, decided that it could not be done. as the river and harbor act of the last session distinctly provides for a channel of only fourteen feet
 In view of this decision it will be necessary to have congress take action, although no appropriation will be need ed, as there will be plenty of the old | appropriation left. A bill, presented in ; the senate by Senator Platt at the re- , quest of MT. Sperry, has already passed the senate, which provides for modi- fication of the New Haven harbor inn prOyement project, and leaves the mat ter in the hands of the secretary of war. The only change contemplated under this bill is to deepen the channel of Quinnipiac river. All other projects are to be carried out as provided by existing law.
 Congressman Sperry has also intro- duced this same bill in the house, but he has but little faith in It's passage this season. MT. Burton, the chairman of the river and harbor commit tee, does not wish to present a report this year, although he has a project exactly iden-
 tical with the one at New Haven. He, too, has been trying to Induce the war department to make 8 ruling that they could increase the depth under the pro- visions of last years bill, but his pro- ject will fal! under the decision just announced by the chief of engineers. Under these circumstances he might consent to bring in a general bill cov- ering these projects where changes are
 very much needed and no further ap- propriations asked for.

recruited as a distinctly Irish regiment and responded early to the call of Gov ernor Buckingham. It was mustered into the service at Camp English, New Haven, November 1, 1861, served brave
 ly and faithfully during the entire per- iod of the war; and was, mustered out at Savannah, G., August 4, 1865. In
 the service of their country the regi-
 ment left an enviable record of loyalty and devotion. They were ever true to
 the cause of the Union, the honor of
 this state and the traditions of their
 race. With Butler in the, Department of the Gulf, with Grant on the James River and with Sheridan in the Shenan- doah Valley, they contributed their part
 to the glorious achievements of the
 Boys in Blue.
 More than 200 of them lie to-day in nameless graves by the banks of the
 Mississippi. Other regiments from our
 state have magnificent monuments, at home or on the hattlefeds of the south erected to perpetuate their deeds and to honor their names. Shall we allow the brave boys of the Irish Ninth to sleep, far from home and kindred, un- honored and unknown? The victories which they won are our common glory, the cause for which they died is our most precious inheritance, Let love and gratitude prompt us to land a hep ing hand to the veterans of the Ninth. who are fast marching to join their comrades dead. The state of Connecti-
 cut has done it's part. May the love which we bear for the memory of our heroic dead do the rest.
