SEARCH FOR BOTTLES
Sheriff 0'Brien Found 97 For
 William t. B0rchardt.

David A. Williams, state agent for the Bottlers' association, was in town Saturday and obtained an order from Judge Peasley to search the premises of Molcher Schlitter, Sperry Hill, Town Plot, for a number of bot ties belonging to William H. Bor- chardt, a bottler. Sheriff John F. O'Brien was given the warrant and he found Schlitter hard at work bot ting home made wine in large quantity of bottles that did not be- long to him. Ninety-seven empty bottles belonging to the complainant Borchardt, were found, and seventeen filled with wine. In the city court this morning the question of cost came up. It seems that the most that can be done with the accused is to make him surrender the bottles ana pay the costs of the process of law. There is no prosecution but simply a statement of the circumstances.
 Schlitter said he did not own the bottles but no one ever called for them and they were in the house when he bought it some time ago Judge Burpee ordered a return of the bottles belonging to Borchardt and imposed the costs on Schlitter, a sum aggregating $1S.45.

MILK 3 CENTS A QUART
wiIkmen Met Saturday Night
 And Arranged Schedule.

The Milkmen's association held a meeting Saturday night and agreed upon the following schedule of prices to take effect on and after November: 1:
 Bottled milk. nine cents per quart.
 Milk from cahs, eight cents per quart.
 Special prices to bakeries and stores, ten-quart can, seven cents per quart.
 Twenty-quart can, six and half cents per quart.
 Forty-quart can, six cents quart.
 The dealers claim that the produ- cers are demanding more money than formerly for milk, and that the re- tailers have no alternative bat ad- vance the figures to correspond with the advance made by the farmers.
 In any case the price of milk will be higher from now on and the folks who don't want to pay will have to try something else. It is hard on the babies, but perhaps they will get along just as we'll and better, on con- densed milk. Hans Rasmussen, who has been president of the association since it was organized three years ago, resigned his office and R. F. Worden of Cherry street was elected to fill the vacancy.

BROOKLYN BRIEFS.

Cornelius Shea of North Leonard street, employed in the blacksmith department of the Barnum & Bailey circus, is home for the winter.
 Leon Marshall of Nebraska is the guest of Saul Lachance of Bank street. MT Marshall kept meat mar ket in Brooklyn several years ago.
 The Rosebud football team lod it's first game of the season yesterday when it was defeated by an East End team after a hard game by the score of to O.
 A new club has been organized in Brooklyn, it is the Spalding Ath- letic club and it's rooms are in the house at the corner of Bank and South Leonard streets. It costs fifty cents to join with monthly assess ment of ten cents.
 The new hall of the Lithuanian Political and Literary socity on Green street was formally opened with dance on Saturday evening. The attendance was large. In the old hall on Saturday evening moving pie lures were given and the entertain ment was repeated last night.
 The luck that has been with the Brooklyns for years was missing yes- terday and that in a manner accounts for their defeat by the Pastimes In fact if the B. A. C. boys were favored in the least by what is known as luck ha Ste fO Brooklyn. The game was lost and the boys across the bridge are not complaining, although bunch of their money found its way to the pockets of the ones who backed the Pastimes. Several lost twenty-five, one lost fifty and man in the West end, who did not like the chances of the Pastimes, dropped seventy-five Indeed it is long time since so many dollars were wagered on a City league contest
 It had been rather dull ih Brooklyn for many weeks until Sat urday night. But there was enough doing on that evening to make up for lost time and the streets of Brooklyn were crowded. The two alarms call ing out the fire department were the principal causes of the excitement and many were of the opinion that a big fire was on across the bridge The first alarm called the department to Wards flat where small fire in the rear of the building looked threat ening, but it was eXtinguished with out much damage. When the fire de- partment was about ready to return another alarm was rung in bringing the department to the house of Mich ael Cronin at the foot of Porter street. While Mir Cronin was pre- pairing his evening meal he stepped out for a few minutes and a pan of grease caught fire and filled the house with smoke. The manner in which the fire horses galloped up Bank street was good to watch. The entire department had been called out by the two alarms and as the engines and hose wagons pranced along, it was a sight worth watching. Neither fire was at all dangerous but the way people flocked to Brooklyn was a eau tion. To add to the excitement the band was on parade ad- their dance.

REVENGE ON ADAM.

His name was Adam. He entered the state normal school at Hudson, Wis. a few days ago. The sOphO- mores declared unanimously that. in asmuch as his name was Adam, he ought to he able to give them an im- itatiOn of the first man. They there fore stripped him of all his raiment, leaving not even so much protection as the proverbial Jig leaf between him and the chilling winds. In this manner they paraded him through the streets of the village. The original Lady Godiva. in Coventry. had her hair SIS a shield against Pepping Tom. but Adam. in Hudson. Wis. was clothed only in his innocence. while the chilly winds blew through. The hazers were arrested and taken to police court and they are t0 be ex- peIled from the school: but they feel satisfied in the knowledge that they got a little revenge out of Adam. News.

JOIN CHURCHES, SAYS BRYAN
Nebrasksn Tells New Workers He Puto
 ReIoion Above All Else,


 New York, Oct 2S-Before an audi. ence that filled Carnegie hall William Jennings Bryan spoke on religion, the meeting being one of three to be held under the auspices of the west side branch of the Y. NJ. c. A.
 Much as I am interested in the sci. ence of government" he said, q am mc-e interested in religion, and while l enjoy making a political speech, l like better to make one on religion. Religion is vital. Religion has to do with our eternal existence, while poll. tics deals only with that small arc of a circle which we spend on earth. I know there are young men who think it smart to be skeptical in religious matters. Some think it humiliating to follow after the lOwly NaZarene. But the older I grow the more thoroughly convinced am I that the fear of God is the very beginning of wisdom Is there any humiliation in taking a per. feet life for our example? AS for the mystery in religion, there is mystery everywhere. There are many things in the Bible that I do not understand and may never understand. But there is much in the Bible that we can un. derstand, and If we live up to those things we will be kept busy doing good"
 Mr. Bryan advised the young men to join churches and thus surround themselves with Christian influences. He told them to try to put into the world more than they took out, not to strive to see what they could get from others, but what they could do for others

 Frank Blish of Marlborough had an exciting experience Friday with a large American goshawk, the hawk that is said to be killing cartridges extensively.
