Lively Gene 4 ~ TOWN Han Last
saturday Eveuinf.


Saturday evening hast. the irst
basket ball game OF the season In
this village was played 10 the Town
Hall between the L'Anse High
School and Baraga Basket Ball
teams,
Promptly at $50 both teams were
on the floor ready for action, and At
8;31 the FIRST ball was tossed up,
which was immediately driven into
the L'Anse field, and an attempt
to make basket failed. The ba1
turning to the hoor. was secured by
McKindles, who in an attempt 70
pass it was impeded by Mcmahon,
who in rough aud tumble was
caught 10 the act Of clinching, and
removed from the game.
This weakened the Baraga team
somewhat. and also gave the home
team q free throw, on the grounds
Of its being foul, and q successful
basket made by Deschaine.
From this point in the game the
scores for the home team began to
increase, and at the finish Of the
first bali, the score stood 2 to in
L'Anse' favor
A 10 minute rest was then taken,
and at 9:l5 the second half resumed.
This part OF the game started OF In
more spirited form than that Of the
6rst, the Baraga team getting down
to closer playing, which netted them
four baskets, but hardly had this
been done, when, by some clever
team work on the part Of Bovine,
Deschaine, McKindles and Blanken-
horn, the ball was placed 10 the
basket successfully eight times,
which brought the game to the time
limit, thus rendering . decision In
favor OF L 'Anse team.
Throughout the game, different
members OF the visiting team we're
warned against disobedieuce TO the
rules, such as shoulder bunting,
clinching, running with the ball.
etc, the presence Of any Of these
wrongs showing lack Of team dis
cipline.
The High School team will also
bear slight criticism in some re-
spects, but on the whole play very
clean ball and their team and COM
bination work 10 good.

second half. TO relieve King, who was

From . general standpoint the
game was q very good one, fast
playing being done throughout,
which afforded pleasure to the

ball is q pretty game and should be
encouraged and as L'Aose has q
good team, it is hoped that many
more games may be arranged be-

PHILADELPHIA. May 26.-There IS

be disturbed at any moment by the in

MANY DAYS BEFORE
CRAWFORD TRIAL ENDS
Government Will Consume Eight to Ten
Days to Complete It's Case-Case
Adjourned Till Monday.

When Criminal Court No. l. Justice

afternoon, the case OF William G.
Crawford on trial on the charge of con-
spiracy tn connection with the contract
for furnishing carriers satchels in 1902
was postponed until Monday morning at
10 o'clock. when the examination of wit
resses will be resumed
From present indications, 1t will take
the Government eight or ten DAYS to

So far the testimony has principally
been that OF identifying papers and sub

Rogestyensky Located at
Woosung, at Mouth Of
Yangtse River.
READY TO GIVE BATTLE
Believed That He Is Hunting
the Warships of
Admiral Togo.

LONDON, May 26.-A dispatch from
Tsingtau, China, says the entire Rus
sian feet is assembled at Woosung, JUST
above Shanghai, at the mouth of the
Yangtse river.
The German squadron at Tsingtau, is
said to be preparing for eventuaIities.
The appearance of Admiral Rogest-
xensky at Woosung is a great surprise,
as he was generally believed to be IN
the Pacific ocean. Woosung is COM
paratively close to Masampo, where it
is reported Togo has had his base for
at least a week.
In coming to Woosung. it is believed
Rogestvensky is seeking his adversary
and is prepared to offer him battle at
the earliest possible moment.
Togo Is Well Informed.
There is little doubt that Togo has
beer. kept well informed of RogestVen-
skv's movements This explains why he
has held his present base. He is doubt
less prepared and viii strike blow for
blow If Rogestvensly dares an attack
The daring of the Russian admiral IN
sailing directly into Japanese waters
leaves little doubt that the long expect
ed battle will be fought before many
days, perhaps even within few hours
Rogestvensky was reported some time
ago as saying that his trip TO the Ear
East was for the purpose OF neetl1g
Togo and the battle would for him mean
either victory or death. His actions
y,a,1Id seem 10 show that he meant what
he said at that time.
The first of the Russian vessels ap-
peared in the neighborhood OF Woosung
last night, when five volunteer cruisers,
with golfers, appeared at the mouth OF
the Yangtse river. A cruiser accom-
panied the volunteer fleet, and 1t subse-
auentiy disappeared.
Whole Fleet Appears.
The balance of the feet made its ap-
pearance suddenly today
Little significance was attached al
first TO the appearance OF the volunteer
fleet. It was thought. at the most the
vessels had been sent TO port 10 obtain
information. if possible, in regard -
the whereabouts OF the japanese feet.
In the light of the developments OF t.
day, however, it can be seen that r.
gestvensky evidently had planned max
ing for Woosung for some time.
Immense quantities OF supplies have
been received at Woosung in the last
few weeks. These, 1t is now known. are
,, for the Russians. This shows the care
with which Rogestyensky has planned
his movements.
Rogestvensky may delay at Woosung
to take aboard the supplies and TO coal
his vessels. If he does this, it viii re-
auire several days. In that event the
battle will be delayed.
On the other hand. if the Russian
| commander puts to sea again irnmedi-
ately. the meeting of the fleets can
hardly be delayed. unless Togo purpose
| ly keeps out OF the way of the Russians.
