Easy Game for White sox n.

Burlington, Iowa, April 4.-The
White Stockings team here won an
easy game from the locals yesterday
by a score of 90 to Z. Neither team
performed any sensational plays, and
the game was a decided contrast To the
neat work of the day before. Ruger
and DouSherty worked this afternoon,
and of the two the little fellow pitched
the best ball Dougherty was landed
on hard in the four innings he pitched.
and especially in the eighth. when he
was hit for doubles and singles by the
Burlington team. The game was one
sided affair from the start.

HICH SCHOOL LIFE
Discussed at Association Helpers
Meeting at Y. NJ. c. A.
Rooms Yesterday.
TALK OF SOCIAL AFFAIRS
Superintendent n. B. Hayden and Prin-
cipai n. e. Brown Are Heard
on Subject-Give Banquet.

At the Y. M C. A. rooms yesterda.
afternoon the Association Helpers dis
cussed the subject THE Social Life oi
the High School" Among those who
spoke on the subject were Principal
H. e. Brown of the high school, Super
ntendent H. B. Hayden, Rev. o. w
Lawrence, Mrs. w. Fl. Gest, Mrs Ma
rion Humphreys, Mrs. Samuel Taylor
and Mrs. Morris. Mr.. Brown in dis
cussing the subject disparaged the Gus
tom of the students giving big ban
quets at an expense of from 81 to S.
a plate and of making dancing parties
one of the main features of the social
life of the school. Mr. Brown urged
the point that to overcome the pre-
vailng custom is to work with the stu
dents, not in opposition to them, and
he commended the plan of the associa-
ton in giving Suppers for the boys and
providing more suitable entertainment
He suggested that if the homes were
thrown open to the pupils for their
social gatherings, they would not be
so often held at the hotels and bail
rooms. This view was concurred in by
themselves on the subject.
Another Banquet.
The helpers have decided to give IN
other banquet at the association for the
high school boys, to be held some time
during May. The ladies are also ar
ranging a banquet for the members OF

tainment to be given in the interests
of the department April Is. The boys
of the association are to be provided
with tickets Friday and Saturday, and

operation with the committee in the

INDICTED AND YET
on THE GRAND JURY
BY Judge Graves at
Aledo.

An unusual proceeding took place
just as the Mercer county grand jury
were about to be impaneled Monday,
States Attorney Graham challenged
one member of the grand jury, w. w.
Wilmerton, of Presumption township, on
two grounds, viz: That the statute re-
quired that the qualifications of a
grand juror must be the same as for
the petit jury. the juror must be OF
fair character and approved integrity +;
also that Mr. Wilmerton was at pres
cnt. under Indictment in this same
court for the illegal sale of liquor, his
trial being set for April 1G of the pres
ent term, and that a reindictment
would be asked for at the present
grand jury of which Wilmerton would
be a member if allowed to sit ON this
jury. Judge Graves promptly allowed
the challenge and discharged Mr.. vii
merton. An Aledo paper says Mr.. Will
merton is known to be the instigator
of the many recent vile and malicious
and unjustifiable attacks emanating
from Rock Island upon States AttOr-
ney Graham, George a. Cooke and 9TH
CrS. Even Judge Gest was abused at
one time. Wilmerton's spleen has ali
been engendered because the Mercer
county board of review would not LEI
his father escape assessments, anG
handled with due course of prosecution
for evading taxes. Mr. Cooke was at
torney for the board of review and Mr..
Graham prosecuted as states attorney,
ever since which time the young MI.
Wilmerton has sworn vengeance on
