MAINE FOOTBALL NOTES

quest Of the manager of Thornton.
Principal Woodbury. WAS Of the opinion
that tho team was not entirely made III
of students Of Lewiston High, and this
together with the rough work and
punching of some of the down cast
players, Is responsible for the game be-
ing called off. Ii is alleged that some
of the men who played III Saco last
Saturday have played with Bates. and
are not regular students at the High
school in the Spindle City. Perhaps
later If the Lewiston manager can con-
vince Thornton that he has a straight
school team on the gridiron a return
game may be played. Principal Wood
bury is opposed to playing with Lewis
ton again under the existing condi-
tons.
The score Of 20 TO . by which Colby
was beaten by Brown at Providence,
Wednesday. was the largest Maine
college ever had rolled up against It by
al outside college. Bates was beaten
by BoWdom by the same score, away
buck in the carly years Of tho game.
and Colby was beaten by Bowdoin 6S
to 0 III 1900 and 81 to in 1904. The bad
defeat, however. which Colby received
at Providence by no means indicates
that Colby is hopelessly weak. this fall
OF that the other Maine college elevens
will have things all their own way
when they meet II, little later. The
game with Brown was played close on
the end Of o. long and hard railway
journey when the Maine players were
in 10 condition to do themselves JUS
ticc. Moreover their captain was un-
able 10 play, Tho University Of Maine
eleven plays Brown at Providence. this
afternoon. and It will be interesting to
compare the results.

ron, and his son, Lieutenant Train,
have been victims of a savage attack
by Chinese outside Marking. The
American officers were pheasant hunt
ing, when the admiral accidentally
shot a Chinese woman, slightly injur-
ing her. Hundreds of villagers there
upon surrounded the officers, took
away their guns. knocked the admiral
down in the mud and held Lieutenant
Train as hostage. Forty American
marines landed as rescue party and
were attacked by mob of Cinnamon
who tried to pitchfork the officers. The
marines We're obliged to fire twice.
The Chinese officials refused to re.
store the officers guns. and supported

the part of the Japanese students.

Mrs. Stevens, President. Discusses the
Canteen Question

Los Angeles. Calif.-The first days
session of the thirty-second annual
convention of the National Women's S
Christian Temperance Union was de-
voted to routine matters. In her an
nual address Mrs. Lillian Stevens,
president, commented upon the va.
rious legislative measures the organi-
cation is urging, both in state Legis-
latures and in the National Congress,
and spoke encouragingly of the future
growth of the temperance movement.
Mrs. Stevens reviewed the develop
ments of the past year and saw much
reason for encouragement. Upon the
subject of reform bills introduced in
the last Congress and which were not
acted upon, she said:
"At mention of this there is before
you visions of petitions you have cir
culated, memories of weary miles you
have traversed, rebuffs you have en-
dured, arguments you have presented.
delays and postponements But no
memories of defeat, for you have
wrought with triumphant spirit and
that same spirit is ours to-day as we
look forward to the coming months"
Mrs. Stevens was positive in her at
the army canteen. She read letters
from Secretary of War Taft and others,
showing that army officers, as a rule
claim there is more drunkenness
among enlisted men since the canteen
has been abolished than before. but
she insisted that no statistics have
been compiled to support their posi-
ton.
''The attempt to restore the canteen
is only a small part of the work of the
liquor element of this country said
the president. II confidently predict
that Congress will take no adverse
action the coming winter"
Mrs. Stevens touched on all the ques'
tions with which the temperance or
ganization concerns itself. including
Mormonism, the purity crusade, patent
medicines and the Gothenburg system
of regulating the liquor traffic which
she strongly opposed as u compromise
with the traffic.
