NO COMPROMISE
WITH THE STRIKERS

New York, Nov 7.-Earnest Glow
ry, of the Western Union, in a state
ment today said that the statement
made by officers of the telegraphers
union that a truce or agreement had
been entered into by the telegraph

FOOTBALL GAME
FRIDAY AFTERNOON

The Institute football team has
been doing some strenuous work of
late under the direction of Captain
Wynne, the athletic coach. About 80
cadets are on the athletic field every
afternoon from 2:30 to 400 doing
what they can to get the first elev-
en- ready for the game to be played
in Ell Paso with the Agricultural and
Mechanical College on Thanksgiving
day. Owing to the great distance to
other schools only one game has
been arranged for, but it is hoped
that the cadets will show up on this
occasion as well as they did eight
years ago when they played the A.
& M. college a game of baseball, the
score being Al to 90 in favor of the
N. NJ. NJ. |.
There is considerable rivalry am
ong the cadets for the places ON the
first eleven, and the second team is
making a great effort to show up
their fellow players. Friday after
noon the two teams will play regu-
The game will be a genuine contest
in every respect No admission will
be charged Friday, and al are cor
daily invited to come and see the
cadets in the great American game.
The two elevens are almost evenly
and the game will be well
worth going to see.

prOvement next month in this mat
ter. In spite of the fact that during
part of the month the weather was
not at all good, and that we had two
circuses to contend with, our attend
ance as a whole was an improvement
over last month.
We had 100 visitors to the various
schools during the last month. This
is some better than last month, but
during each month. We are hoping
and dreaming that we will be able
to induce the parents of the children
of Roswell to visit at least the grades
of their various children. 1t would
.be a wonderful force for the uplift-
ment of the schools of Roswell if
we could induce 200 or 800 patrons
TO visit the schools each month. Come
if you can only spend an hour with
us.
The first division of the literary
society of the High School has post
poned it's program one week.
The Roswell High School baseball
team will go down to Artesia Satur-
day to play off the tie existing be-
tween the two teams.
The girls basket ball team of the
High School will perhaps go down
with the teachers to Carlsbad during
he Thanksgiving holidays to play a
series of games, one with the Artesia
team and the other with the Carls-
bad team.
Next Saturday at a. m. the city
teachers will have their second city

At the recess meeting last night
calling for a special election on the
issue of 100000 in waterworks
works bonds. They also passed sep
arate ordinances for elections to vote
$4,000 for sewer extension. $4,000
for ditch cementilg and improve
ments and 5000 for fire department
improvement All the elections will
be held on January IS.
The proposed amendment of the
water ordinance to set time limit
on the sale of the bonds, when voted,
was not attached. The members of
the water commission appeared be-
fore the council and asked that this
amendment be left off on account of
the stringent money market, and on
account of the fact that it would do
no good and merely hamper the com
mission. This was the argument of
the members of the commission, and
the amendment was voted down, six
to one. The ordinance was then pass
ed as suggested by the commission.
resolution was passed changing
the name of Bayard street to Albu-
querque street.
A recess was taken to discuss the
changing of the route of the Lea
Cunningham ditch. 1t was found that
J. P. White and K. S. Woodruff, two
members of the ditch-owners' COM
mittee, were out of town. This COM
mittee was responsible for the chang
ing of the route of the ditch, and |
Arthur Stevens, the third member
of the committee, had not sufficient |
authority to make any agreements |
or contracts. 1t was decided that the |
deep ditch that has been dug down |
Alameda street should be covered
to avaid damage suits, and Engineer |
Ririe, who is in charge of the work, |
stated that it could be given ce-
ment covering 500 cheaper than it |
would be to run the ditch down the
old line. The counciimen voiced the
opinion that since the ditch-owners
committee changed the route with
out the knowledge or consent of the
council, the owners should pay for
the extra cost of covering the ditch.
This matter will be referred to w
NJ Atkinson, of the Arbitration board
as soon as he returns from Santa
Fe, tomorrow or Saturday.
After this question was settled the
council took a recess and went to
the carnival in body.
