Bristol. Feb 6.-About 700 at- tended the polo game here last night between the New Britain team and Bridgeport. The teams were sched- uled to play in New Britain, but on account of the armory being in use this week the game was played in Bristol.

WAS A VERY
 CLOSE CALL Locals Beat New Haven in a Very Close Fight Results of tho <
 Other Games.

A little mix-up in the running of the trolley cars, little misunder- standing about the rules that do not exist. little dissatisfaction among some of the fans, caused loss of about $100 to the local polo mana gers last evening and prevented the polo game from starting until 10:35. When. the time came for the regular l game only three of the New Haven 1 players had arrived, Mullen and the two Warmers. Referee George Har- rington then forfeited the game to Waterbury. Later. Secretary Bill Peet, who was present declared that there was no rule by which a game could be forfeited and the game which was played as an exhibition one will go into the standing as regular. At 10:20 Welch and Saunders the two belated New Ha- veners arrived on the scene and they were soon on the floor. Many of the i spectators in the meantime had de- cided that there would be no game and they demanded their money back. This was refunded to them by the local managers. The game was fast from start to finish and those who did remain saw an sex- cellent contest. New Haven went after the game with rush, but Wa terbury was Waiting at the Church" with all sails set. In five minutes Mooney had caged the first goal, which proved to be the only one in that period. In the second session both teams made red hot battle of 1t and the goal tenders were on to their. jobs and not one goal was scored. The third saw the New Ha- vens tie the score at the end of six minutes when Welch put the red fel- low into the netting. Two minutes later Loxson shot what proved to be the winning goal for his side.

Much Work sdll,Unfinished.

Just at present, let It be known,
there is a heap of important legisla-
ton still in an unfinished shape and
speculation is rife as to how much of
it will receive the finishing touches.
In the lot there are a number of APP
preparation bills. Such Of these az
have to do with the maintenance OF
state institutions, etc, will, of course,
be passed. There are others which
propose the establishment Of new in.
stitutions and boards which will, in
all probability, 60 into the junk heap.
The only new institution, or, more
properly speaking, new venture for
which provision is likely to be made
is the prison binder Irvine plant, and
even that is not what might be termed
n cinch. The bill is still with the
senate committee and may remain
there. The committee gave a hearing
last week mt which =. Summers. who
has operated binder Irvine plant at
Port Huron. was the principal speak
cr. lie opposed the bill on the ground
that the state could not conduct the
nlnnt with profit Mr. Summers rs a
convert. When the bill was first III.
,roduced he was openly in favor as It.
as he frankly admitted. Whether the
fact that he has recently shut down
his plant and Is now selling his raw
material TO the binder Irvine trust has
anything to do with his change Of
heart can, Of course, only be cor
jectured.

EDUCATION AND MATRIMONY.

Because about $50 per cent or the teachers who become proficient leaves the schools for married life,' the East St. Louis School Board rallies in the last stages of hope less struggle and adopts a resolu- tion under which teachers who are engaged matrimonially will not be allowed to go on working after giving months notice, says the St. Louis Republic.
 While this is officially regula- tion, it is more accurate to call it a measure of revenge and reprisal. As such, it will fail in East St. Louis as all such measures have failed elsewhere. They have failed in St. Louis, as they ought to have failed, being against public policy and the logic of the whole system of public education.
 Under this lagic the teacher who is best fitted to educate other peo- ple's children is by the same rule better fitted for matrimony. In that case it would be argued that mothers who have had the most experience with their own children are best fitted to teach. As it does not work this way, the only way it can work if to put the greater part of the work of the public school system of the whole country in hands of h. dies who are generally young and not the less attractive because tn " are intellectual.
 If marriage was a lottery, instead of being made in heaven. 1t hardly needs to be argued that there would be prizes in it. The numbers of -Congressmen, United States SAna- tors and even Presidents that have been educated matrimonially eX- plains the competition which the East St. Louis School Board is un able to meet under the scale of sal aries existing there and elsewhere. It is much more likely to increase than to diminish. Under the cir cumstances, the sensible course for
