FIELDING OF
SOCCER GAMES ARE
PREVENTED BY RAIN,

Owing to the heavy rain which rendered
the grounds unplayable. all the soccer
games scheduled for this vicinity yesterday
were postponed. The Howard & Bullough
Football Club. of Providence, r. l., which
travelled to this section to meet the New
ark Hearts in the second round of the
American cup ties, appeared at Morris
Park yesterday afternoon. ready to play
the game. 1t was a great disappointment
to the Down Casters when Referee II.
Wilkie declared the ground unplayable.
The Hearts were also present and ready
to go on.
AS all postponed games In the American
cup competition must be decided the fol-
lowing week, the Howard & Bullough
eleven will have to return TO Newark next
Sunday to decide this tie. Manager
Holmes, Of the Newark Hearts, said yes
terday that In all likelihood the game
would be decided at Morris Park next Sun
day.
Newarks Defeated at philadelphia.
The Newark Football Club failed to sur
vive the second round for the American
cup ties. being defeated by the Thistles, of
Philadelphia, at the latter place on Satur-
day by a score of 2 goals to l. The This
ties were in fine form and showed the
benefit of their two weeks training. The
Newarks also played a great game and
toward the finish looked like tying the
score on several occasions, but luck was
with the Thlstles. There is some talk OF
the game being protested by the Newark
club at the next meeting of the association
on account Of the delay in starting the
game. The Newark F. c. officials claim
Harry Dale, of New York. the official ref
cree. did not appear on the ground until
almost $3.50 p. M, and that consequently
the latter part of the second half was
played in semi-darkness.

SCHOOL TEAMS GAMES.
Weeks Feature Meeting Of Newark
High and East Orange Thursday.

Among the football games played by
the various preparatory and high school
teams of this section the annual Newark
East Orange High contest has been looked
upon by the followers of the sport as the
big game of the season ever since the
Newark High School broke relations with
the Newark Academy in 1903. The con-
tests have heretofore taken place at the
Orange Oval on the Friday previous to
Thanksgiving Day. As the Oval could
not be secured this year the managers
found it necessary to have the game
played at Ashland Oval, East Orange, and
also changed the date. The game will
be played Thanksgiving Day morning, the
start being set for 1890 o'clock.
Much enthusiasm has been aroused over
the game, and the East Orange High
School. secured jack Mum, of Princeton,
who has coached the Princeton back field
for the past two years, and was first as
sistant coach this fall, to coach the team
two weeks before the great battle of the
season with Newark High. Mum was
formerly captain of the East Orange
team. Coaches Taylor and ~Grosenbaugh
are still on East Oranges coaching staff,
ana they, with several former East Or
ange football stars, are assisting Jack
Mum In getting the team into the best
| possible form for Thursdays game.
The result of this game will decide the
championship of the New Jersey Inter
scholastic League. Should East Orange
win they would also win the champion
| ship. II they tie Newark they will be
tie in the league race with Stevens
PREP unless Stevens is thrown out Of
the race by the protest against them for
the alleged use of professional or Illegal
players. The protest not going through,
and Newark winning, Stevens would win
the pennant.
Stevens played no-score games with
East Orange and Montclair, defeating
Newark, 10 to 0. On the other hand, IL
the protest goes against = Stevens and
Newark High gains a victory over East
Orange, they will claim the football cham
pionship OF the N. j. I. A. A., having
won two games, East Orange losing one.
Newark High School finds it necessary
to hold its football practice in secret at
different intervals before the East Orange
game. They are greatly handicapped in
the coaching line. Coach Lee Warning
finds 1t necessary to put the members of
the squad through their daily practice
without the assistance of other coaches,
old graduates or former Newark High and
college stars.
The squad goes through its daily prac-
tice in rather disheartening fashion. All
last week their play was unsatisfactory,
despite the frantic efforts the coach and
students made to rouse them. The scrub
scored on the varsity and made good
gains through the line frequently.

BURKETT BATTED 1893.
Worcester Manager Led New England
League at Close of Season.

BOSTON. Nov. 25.-As was the case in
1906, Jesse Burkett. the former major
Lacquer, tops the players of the New Eng
land League in batting for the last season,
with the excellent percentage of 1888, ms
against .344 credited to him the year be-
fore. The batsman who ran him the clos

race at the Hillside Park rink last night
there were twelve starters, the winner
turning up in Gus Gogger. Chris Reitzei

sHERMAMs' FIRST DEFEAT.
Crack Local Football Eleven Finally
Downed by the Spartans.

The Sherman A. c., hitherto undefeated
this season, met its Waterloo Saturday
afternoon In the game with the Spartans,
of Summit, being beaten by a score of IS
to 0. The Shermans put up a game fight,
but were no match for the Spartans, who
went through the line time after time for
gains. A Encouragement for the Sher-
mans came after a few minutes of play.
Day MacLarn, in making an end run,
dropped the bail and MacNaughton. the
spartan's crack quarterback, picked 1t up
and ran seventy yards for a touchdown.
Another handicap was the loss of Mac
Larn, who sprained his shoulder. For the
home team A. Buckley, II. Buckley and
Bailey did some great smashing. Dennis
and Bender played a pretty game at ends.
The lineup:
Spartans. Shermans.

A meeting will be held some night this
week, probably at the Orange Valley
Lyceum, for the purpose of forming an
Orange bowling league, to decide the
Championship of the Oranges. The bowl

form an eight-club circuit, h~ome-and-home

1t will be an easy matter to get eight clubs.

CARDS OF THANKS
Publishers VIII Welcome the Day
When They Become q Thing
of the Past.

The day is not far distant when the
"card OF thanks" will be a thing Of
the past. When death enters home,
the neighbors never fail to do all in
their power to place silver lining
back Of the dark cloud, and they do
not expect or desire any thanks
through the public press. One sub
scriber, however, not to be outdone,
sent in the following:
"Mr. Editor II desire to thank the
friends and neighbors most heartily
In this manner for their hearty CO.
operation during the illness and death
Of my late husband, who escaped me
by the hand OF death on last Friday
morning, while eating breakfast. To
my friends and all who contributed SO
willingly toward making the last mo-
ments and funeral a success, i desire
to remember most kindly, hoping
these lines will find them enjoying the
same blessing. I have also good
milk cow and a roam gelding, months
old, which l will sell cheap. God
moves In a mysterious way his won
ders TO perform. He plants his foot
steps on the sea and rides upon thu
storm Also black and white shoa

ARE CRUISING TIMBER
Western Washington Counties Have
Estimates Made For Assess
ment Purposes.

w. V. Fuller has returned from a
business trip to Gray's Harbor and
the Sound country, where he succeeded
in purchasing from Washington men
some valuable Oregon timber land.
MIR. Fuller says the Washington
sawmills are all running in full blast,
but that many Of the shingle mills
have closed down, some for go days,
by order of the Shingle Manufacturers
Association.
Most OF the counties in Western
Washington are having their timber
lands cruised for assessment purposes.
The plan Of having the amount Of
timber carefully estimated by expert
cruisers seems to meet with general
favor with the large timber owners,
for while it tends to increase the taxes
on the heavily timbered lands, 1t
reduces the valuation on the tracts
that have a less amount Of timber,
thereby fulfilling the object intended,
that of equalizing the burden of tax
alton. Heretofore, the County Asses
sors have had no reliable information
to guide them and have assessed all
timber land at the same figure.

NEW WAREHOUSE FIRM
Dallas City Bank WllI Succeed
Gibson & SimOnton at
RicRreall.

Mr.. and Mrs. w. w. Rowell will
leave for Rickreall today, where Mr..
Rowell will take the active manage
ment Of the Rickreall FIGURING Mill
warehouse. The Dallas City Bank
has taken over this property from
Gibson & Simonton and will place it
in charge of Mr.. Rowell.
The Touring mill machinery is be-
ing removed to Bellingham, Wash,
but the warehouse business will be
continued, and farmers who have here
tofore stored their wheat at Rickreall
will be able to do so again this year.
In addition to conducting a general
storage business, the warehouse COM
pany will continue to operate the chop
per, and full supply Of feed and -four
will be carried in stock at all times.
The Dallas City Bank will continue
the old name Of the Rickreall Milling
Company.
Rickreall is one of the important
warehouse points Of Polk county, being
in the center of large and prosperous
wheat-growing community. The name
of the Dallas City Bank as the sue
cessor to Gibson & Simonton is in
itself a sufficient guarantee that the
warehouse will be honestly and
capably managed and that the interests
of the farmers will at all times be
carefully guarded.
