The Ansonia high school football team went to Washington Saturday, accompanied by large number of rooters, and defeated the strong Gun nery eleven of that place by the score of 12 to 5, By defeating this eleven the local squad have demonstrated that they are about one of the strong est teams that has ever represented the high school. A year ago the Gun nery defeated the local boys by the score of 6 to 0, and it is certain that the eleven representing the Gunnery this year Is as strong and heavy as r7'''''0~'v TNe local rooters were en- thusiastic in their praise of each indi- vidual on the team upon their return last evening.

VAMPIRES DEFEAT
THE CHAMPION
HORNETS

OAKLAND, Feb. 10.-By score of
3 to the Vampires of Alameda won
today from the Oakland Hornets. the
new champions of the Association Foot
ball League in a driving finish. Neither
team had scored since early In the
game, when ]. Mckenzie DETECTED the
ball into the Vampires net with his
head, until the last period was well
under way. Then the Vamps got three
in short order. Lee started 1t by head
ing one over from close in, Robertson
kicked another from some distance
directly in front and Rinard put the
game in his pocket with a sensational
shot just inside the uprights, which
McRitchie, PROSTATE on the ground in
his efforts, failed to reach.
Not a bit daunted by the sudden
shifting of the balances, Alec Mckenzie
warped the ball where 1T would count
for the Hornets after a hot mix-up in
front of the Vampires goal and big
Harry Elliott flattened the ball against
the cross bar in a shot that threatened
to tear down the structure.
The team work of the winners was a
revelation to the spectators and only
by the narrowest margins We're they
kept out of several more points. Per-
feet passing marked their methods and
the results achieved through combina-
tions made their opponents seem hardly
more than spectators at times. The
lineup was:

Large Amounts
to Be Made

Adjutant General ]. B. Lauck, N. G. c.,
met the ways and means committee of
the Assembly recently and with the
assistance of Assistant Adjutant Brad
bury explained the several bills ask
ing for appropriations amounting to
1870, 900 which have already been pre-
sented on behalf OF the National Guard
of the State
Among the requests for money is
one for 100000 for an armony In Sac
ramento. where there are one troop
of cavalry and two companies of in
fantry; another for 100000 for uni
forms to replace those destroyed by
fire or worn out in the emergency
service, and $4,000 as a contingent
fund to defray the expenses of the ex-
amining board.
At the conference General Lauck
urged that the guardsmen should be
encouraged in the matter of becoming
good shots and expressed himself In
favor of an increased appropriation
for rife practice and ammunition for
such, whereupon an assemblyman said
that he thought the National Guard
Francisco.
The adjutant general then said: THE
National Guard fred but two shots in
San Francisco. 1t was not the guard
that did the shooting
The committee, after considering all
matters presented, decided to recon-
mend the passage of the major portion
of the bills asking for appropriations
Some time since when Senator An
thony introduced a bill authorizing the
formation of rifle companies in the
public schools, it was stated by one oi
the Sacramento papers that the ad-
jutant general was In favor of the
idea The adjutant general, however
declared that he never SO expressed
himself and said that he would not
favor such a measure, not because II
would not arouse war spirit in the
breasts of the school boys but be-
the State. some 100000 year, with
out corresponding benefit"
WOMEN OPPOSE BILL
This bill is meeting opposition from
the majority of the school superin-
tendents in the State Mrs. Alice
Park has started a chain of letters to
arouse all clubwomen of the State
to oppose the measure.
AS yet no steps in the direction OF an
investigation as to the inside reasons
for the sudden mastering out OF troop
of cavalry and two companies of in
fantry in San Francisco have been
taken, and some of the committee who
waited on the Governor and adjutant
general recently and were given to
understand that such an investigation
would be ordered at once feel that they
have been handed gold-covered
brick"
Last week the Governor, when spok-
en- to in relation to this matter, said
that when the committee called upon
him with a request TO have the troop
and the two companies reinstated he
listened TO the grievance, which was to
the effect that the organizations had
been ousted without any consideration
for the conditions in San francisco
that had existed since the fire
The Governor told the committee
that as soon as he could find
time he would consult with General
Lauck, the adjutant general, ascertain

PROBLEMS OF IMMIGRATION

The two great problems in connection
with immigration are the congestion OF
certain classes of foreigners in indi-
gestible masses in cities aid the unre-
stricted entry of aliens whose inclina-
tion and capacity to become citizens are
not up TO the requirements. 1t has been
suggested as a remedy for the first
condition that the number of aliens en-
tering at any one port should be limit
ed, thus forcing the surplus to enter
through smaller ports, thereby scatter
ing them from the moment Of landing.
AS TO the restriction of undesirables,
there can be no question OF the power
and duty of Congress to act No Of
fense can be taken by any foreign gov
ernment against reasonable restric-
tions.--Washingto Post.

ENGLISH MoTOR-CAR INDUSTRY
Is MAKING GREAT ADVANCES
More Than Fifty-eight Million Dollars
Invested I'm the Manufacture
of AutomobfIes

The London Economist. In speaking
of the motor-car industry of the United
Kingdom. says:
THE motor-car industry bids fair to
become one OF our most important man
ufacturing industries. 1t may be esti
mated that the amount of capital now
invested in the industry well exceeds
$5S,39S,000. and the total output of We
hicles of all kinds by British manufac-
turers for the current year cannot fall
far short of $4,000, with an approxfmate
value of s21.s9s.25o. Although British
manufacturers entered the field com
paratively late in the day, they are now
turning out cars which, in respect of
speed. cost, reliability and finish, cannot
be excelled by the Continental manu-
facturers. And in this connection ii Is
interesting 10 note that British manu-
facturers are beginning to make impor
tant progress in their foreign trade, the
exports for the first ten months of the
current year having been $2,996,I33, as
compared with s1,75o.221 in the corre-
spending time last year"

WORE HOPE FOR PORTO RIco

At the end of this calendar year the
United States will have taken from
Porto Rico something like $4,000. 900
worth of tobacco, cigars and cigarettes.
This fact suggests the possibility, II
not the probability, that tobacco may
yet take the place of coffee as a main
stay of the Porto Rican peasantry. The
cultivation of tobacco. like the cultiva-
tion of coffee. requires only land and
labor. In the process of production 40
