TO MAKE
 TENNESSEE DRY

Chattanooga, Tenn, Oct. 23.-With the avowed intention of driving the saloons from the larger cities of Ten nessee, as they have already been driven from the small cities and towns and rural districts, the temperance hosts of the state are gathering here today for the convention of the Anti Saloon league, to be held during the next three days. Temperance speak CTS of national fame will address the convention and plans will be made for inaugurating a campaign that will make Tennesse eas dry as Georgia is soon to become. Interest in the prohibition movement is now center- ing in the South and determined warfare will be waged until Tennes- see, Alabama, Mississippi and other commonwealths of Dixie have joined Georgia in the prohibition ranks. Ma tional Superintendent Barker of the Anti-Saloon league, will be among the speakers at the convention.

GREAT GAME OF
 FOOTBALL HERE
Stuttgart and Pine Bluff High School Boys Battled DeterminedIy on the Gridir0n With a O.0 Score at
 the Finish.

For two twenty-minute halves yes teYday afternoon the mole skin war
 riors of the Pine Bluff High School battled desperately With the heavy : Stuttgart team and virtually w2n d victory, though the score resulted i'll , a tie, neither side scoring. f~ Outweighed fifteen pounds to the man, they hurled themselves against Ithe Stuttgart team like cataonits and tackled with unerring accuracy Tune and time again the heavy backs Cf the prairie city charged the local boys' line, only to have their play crampied like paper.ll.s The local line held like 9 M one wall,s. and especially dogset 5 las the work of the left tackle, Pres ton Grace, and left guard, Arthur Reen, and, flew line plunges through them neted consistent gains. Hervey Mann, right half back, punted bril- lAntly, his kicks averaging forty N e yards: and on one occasioe. the e al was booted over fifty-five yards, V punt the mighty Ecersall would have been proud of, and the success of the High School team largely de- pended on his unerring toe.
 The work of Howard Strauss, the High School quarter, was phenome' nal. Time and time again he alone stood between a 150-pound half and the High School goal, and though weighing only 110 he dumped his man with a heavy thud every time. The local boys worked the new forward pass successively three times, twice for 15 yards and on a third occa- sion Hervie Mann hurled the pig skin Twenty yards into the Stuttgart checker board and when the Stutt- gart line woke up the ball was nestled in Frank Lieberman's arms on It's, way to the goal. Harvey Gil- lespie and Bart Eddins boxed all cir cling end runs with losses and went down on punts like veterans. Every man on the team played well and the team deserves great credit for it's game stand.
 Every nerve will be strained from now on to give the Little Rock High School a battle royal next Saturday and Professor Benton, assisted by s MT. Rose, will weed out the dumb playing between now and then. The visiting team played hard, though < varying game and seemingly could not use their superior weight and

WHAT'S THE MATTER
WITH. THE FIRST?

What's the matter with the
First municipal ward? Accord
ing to the Tribune it elected
three very bad men as its rep
representatives in the city coun-
Gil. Their lives, according to
the Tribune and the Tribune is
their own organ and ought to
know, are stained with secret
crimes known to the police, ana
they are in mortal fear of the
police. The Tribune's charges
against those men which it
helped to elect are made to
some extent by innuendo, but
the references are SO plain there
is no mistaking who it means,
The Tribune, if it were not a
coyote sheet, would come out
in the open and state plainly
what the charges against those
councilmen are. 1t knew just
as much about those men when
it advocated their election as
it does now, and it might ex-
plain why it painted them as
pure and spotless as the lily
then and now as black as Satan.
The First ward, it would ap-
pear, can nsither be congratu-
lated on its allegiance to the
American" party nor on the
quality of the men it chose to
represent it in the council.

Senator Hopkins of Illinois, in his
race for reelection, has struck an
element of strength he probably was
not counting on; that is, he has en-
countered the opposition of one f. T.
Dubois. Everybody opposed by the
latter has invariably pulled through.
There is one stright and direct ad-
mission which the Tribunes assault
on Captain Burbidge has brought out;
that is that the McWhirters were
robbed and that Sheets and Raleigh
knew of the robbery Up to very
recently the Tribune denied that there
had been robbery.

A herculean effort to pull Itself to-

element of the party is trying to re-
cruit the scattered forces and relegatc

sponsible for the disasters which
came upon it.
1t is very questionable whether
those democrats who desire the demo-
cratic convention to name Mayor

Report Is That Admiral May Lose
His Command az Result.
Fighting Bob" Evans. it has be-
came known, is decidedly on the outs
with the general naval board at Wash
ington. Serious friction exists be-
tween the admiral and the bureau Of
ficers who rank him. He has disre-
gardel their'orders and run things his
own way, they complain. The trouble,
coming as it does on the eve Of the
cruise of Rear Admirals fleet around
the Horn, has caused a sensation
among naval men and government Of
fcials. Naval circles in New York
fairly buzzed with gossip about it.
Only the peculiar position of Eight
ing Bob" it is said, saved him from
official reprimand or perhaps court
martial. Another officer who treated
the board as Evans has would un-
doubtedly have been called to the
front for explanation. But nothing
has been done in his case, because of
his unquestioned ability and the
public's deep affection for him.

Was 1t a Fake?

Sensational stories originating at
Helena, Mont, coming from reports
made by Speaker E. w. King of the
Montana legislature regarding the
supposed sailing of the 22,0O0-acre
placer ground recently acquired by
the GreenOugh interests, located near
Lander, Wyo., have grain of truth in
them" said Wilbur D. Greenough of
Spokane, when seen regarding the re-
ported betrayal of Spokane and Mis-
soula men into buying heavily of the
stock Of the Wyoming corporation, and
the supposed sailing Of the placer
ground before being purchased by the
Greenough interests.
mot one share Of the stock in the
Red Canyon placer mines has been
sold or issued to any one outside of
the few original locaters," he contin-
ued. 'The company has no outstand-
ing holders and if the sailing proves
true the Greenough brothers and their
associates alone will be the losers. We
have spent approximately 100000 in
prospecting the property alone, aside
from the original purchase price and
the work already done. Because of the
Indictment weather in Wyoming we
have called off nearly the whole force
of workmen, aside from the three en-
gineers engaged in ascertaining the
truth of reports in circulation. Work
on the property has been discontinued
until next spring, when we will renew
Investigations and resume work on the
S00O-foot tunnel through which water
from the Little Popo Agile river is to
be taken to the mines. If the sailing
reports are truthful, the people who
misrepresented affairs are liable to
penitentiary sentence"

alive.
He has suffered terribly from cold
and exposure.
Two bodies have been washed ashore
al Deer Park.
The Cypress was a new boat, 40
feet long, with capacity of 7400 tons.
1t is believed that the machinery was
broken, as the northwest storm was
not severe enough to wreck such a
strong ship.
The indications are that the founder
ing was due to leak. The steamer
George Stevenson reported that she
had passed the Cypress. A red streak
was distinguishable in the water be-
hind her, indicating that her plates
had been sprung and that the iron ore
with which the ship was loaded was
discoloring the water. Captain Har-
botelle of the Stevenson says he pass
ed so close that he could see that the
matches of the Cypress were not COW
cred. A heavy sea was running and
the decks of the Cypress were continu-
ally awash with the combers that
broke over the rails. Late in the night
the lights Of the vessel near Deer
park were visible to the crew of the
Stevenson and then suddenly disap-
peared.
