 Mrs Nellie Cenesky of Lafayette street and William Kruzes of Green street were married this morning at St JOseph's church. Mrs Cenesky Is the mother of Joe Cenesky, now serv- ing a life term in state prison and the widow of the man who killed himself about year ago.

 The Rosebud football team, through its manager, John Luskey, claims the junior championship of the city. Luskey aays that yesterday the East End football team defeated the Colts. who formerly claimed the championship, and as the Rosebuds have already defeated the East Ends they now claim the rag. Manager Luskey furthermore declares that he is willing to have his team meet either of the other elevens above mentioned and game may be ar ranged by writing to his address, S44 Bank street.
 Tt seems that the Cadets do not know just what they will do on Thanksgiving day, but in all proba- bility they will only play one game, and that with the Second Wards at the State league park in the morning. They were to go to Meriden to play the Dublins, but since the contest with the North End eleven has been arranged, the other will undoubtedly be called of, as the Cadets could not play hard game in this city in the morning and go to the Silver city in the afternoon. The Cadets and the Second Wards would play rattling good game.

C0L0RED PEOPLE OBJECT
To tho Dismissal of CeIored Troops
 By President Roosevelt

At the close of the service at Grace Baptist church last evening. the pas tor. Rev Mr Reed. read the follow ing preamble and resolutions, rela- tive to the dismissal by President Roosevelt of three companies of the Twenty-flfth regiment made up of colored men, at Brownville. Texas:
 Whereas, we have read with pro- found sorrow and regret the presi- dents actions in dismissing without honor, three companies of negro sol- diers from the Twenty-fifth United States infantry because it is supposed they withheld information from the authorities reative to few riotous members of their regiment; and,
 Whereas, we have been such ardent admireres and staunch supporters of President Roosevelt, we are all the more morally shocked at this strong, unnatural and almost unprecedented action on the part of the president; we believe it to be course he would hardly have dared to pursue with white soldiers under similar circum- stances. As church we are decid- edly in favor of law and order and are just as much opposed to the riotous negro soldiers as we are to the exhibition of that unchristian and unpatriotic spirit of some of the white people at Brownsville, Texas, who provoked the riot.
 Therefore. Resolved, that we wish to put ourselves upon record as op- posed to the wholesale punishment of our people for the misdeeds of few; we believe that the president acted hastily and ill-advisedly and in the name of right, fair play and a square deal' we call upon the great executive, head of this nation, to re- scind his order, and that a copy of these resolutions be sent to the pub lie press and one to the president.
 The resolution was unanimously adopted. The trouble grew out of alleged disorderly conduct on the part of the colored troops which re- suited in complaint from the towns people. An effort was made to learn the names of the offenders, but none of the soldier boys appeared to know anything about the case. and after a full investigation the president or dered the dishonorable discharge of the three companies.

DISTRICT SCHOOL BRASS BAND
Membership Reward for Good. De
 pertinent and Studious Habits.

|. Membership in brass band as an incentive to school attendance is an idea developed into success by a teacher in back country district in central Kansas, H. D. Wilson, of Dickinson county. The plan has re- suited in such satisfactory results that 1t is attracting much attention from teachers of that section and is being studied as to it's permanent ef- fects.
 Mir Wilson was for some time a teacher of music in the country high school. Last winter he applied for the school and was employed. He found that the attendance was small and irregular; tardiness was 50 com mon as to be the rule instead of the exception. He organized the band to interest the thirty pupils in the work of the school.
 At first there was trouble getting instruments" he explains. We purchased some by subscription, the board helped us to some, and the re- mainder we borrowed. Then we gave entertainments and obtained the whole amount needed. By that time the school was becoming en- unused. I made membership in the band reward of merit-attendance, lessons and department must be sat- isfactory. The country boys and girls grew greatly interested and noon and recess were given up to practice and instruction.
 Luckily the schoolhouse was mile from any dwelling, so none was dis turbed.
 All winter the practice went on and during the summer the pupils met to keep up their enjoyment. One day they went to the county seat and played on the streets and hundreds of persons crowded around them to watch the boys and girls make sweet music. All were surprised by the excellence of the time and the har- mony. Every pupil in the school has a chance to belong to the band, though of course the little ones can not do 80 yet. Every family in the district is represented.
 The attendance has become re- markable for its regularity" says the teacher. "The department is excep- tionally good; tardiness Is almost un- known, though many of the pupils live three miles away. There has grown up comradeship between myself and the pupils that makes us like one contented family. It seems like transformation in the school.
 "The band played at the county fair. 1t has received added appropria- tion from the district and is in de- mand for every entertainment in that part of the county. The mem- bers are saving the money earned from entertainments and next sum- mer the band hopes to take a trip to Kansas City and Chicago. giving the young folks their first sight of city."-Topeka Capital.
