: SENTENCE SERMONS.


 There is no loyalty without love
 TO defer right determination is to make a wrong one.
 The acid of envy eats out all hap piness from the heart
 You cannot get high moral tone out of loose muscular wires.
 If you do not know how to let up you do not know how to live.
 You can do little for humanity with out the saving salt of humor.
 There is no complete understand ing of a duty until it is completed,
 Every time you depend on bracer you knock out your own underpin- hing.
 When we confess to our own faults usually we are thinking of our neigh bors.
 Many man thinks he is a great force because he creates so much friction
 The man who borrows trouble is little better than the one who makes it.
 Every man may have a right to his own grouch. but he has duty to keep it to himself
 If you are afraid of being misun. derstood you are not likely to do much worth standing.-Chicago Tribune.

litfIe Rock 2, New Orleans 1.

New Orleans, July 4.-After winning $ games without being bumped, Moxie Manuel ended his run of victories today, the ag- gressive Little Rock Colts prov ing the aggregation able to turn the big fingers measure. Char ley Frank was anxious to streng then his hold in first division place and accordingly sent Man uel to the front confident his win hing pitcher could give the Fin nites a shove down the ladder. However, even MoXie was un- equal to the task and although the visitors made but two runs, oneof which was unearned, Man uel's offerings were found in nearly every inning and it was phenomenal support that kept him from a worse beating.
 Incidentally Bill Hart pitched for the visitors and Little Rock jumped to even terms with the PeliCans in the league race by winning , to1. Hart was in grand form and although the locals con nected for six safeties in all, the veteran pulled out of some bad places, two fielding errors in the ninth inning giving the Pelicans their only run

POLO WHITES.
Beaten we were.

Beaten we were.
 New Britain has our alley.
 We are weak in some places for sure.
 The fact was evident last evening that we will have to strengthen up a bit or we will not be in the hunt for that pennant.
 How the New Britains did howl around the timers bench last night because they saw Waterbury crawl ing up on them.
 Those preliminary games keep the fans well entertained, for there is keen rivalry between each team, and their packers root to beat the band.
 Devlin got gash over one of his eyes in the game and had to be patched up before he could continue. Devlin is pretty rough player at that when he wants to be so.
 Dews was right to home and played a star game. but didn't he ramble after those rushes, and the best of 1t. he managed to get them all with the exception of four.-New Haven Union
 Billy Hanna was all smiles last night, and so was Frank Warner, who deserted our team to play with New Britain. You bet they wanted that game badly and no wonder they kicked at the time.
 We had little hard luck again, too, for one ball that was sent into the New Britains' cage Topped out again. Had this remained in the netting we might have had a chance to fight 1t oil in an overtime game.
 If anyone imagines the local timer is keeping accurate time at the games he has another think coming. It is an utter impossibility to keep the seconds correctly with an every day go as you please watch. New Britain and other teams might just as we'll quit kicking over the time for 1t will do no good.
 Pop" Roberts. one of the greatest rushes in the polo game. started from Edgartown Saturday and will join the Akron. O., team. Manager Fouse has been after Roberts for a week, but until Friday could not locate him. Fouse is after another rusher. Dickey Pierce, who was given to Akron with $100 to replace Mac Gilvray by the Interstate league mag mates. He has refused to leave a city job at his home in Pawtucket. which necessitates finding another rush. Red" Williams. first rush since the opening of the season, will become utility man after a partner for Roberts has been found. Roberts has played with both Jean and Lyons, of Akron. and Captain Jean believes a more valuable man could not have been found.

FITZ MAY
 FIGHT AGAIN
Will Be Probably Matched With Tommy Burns - Young Dona-
 hue Prove. a Tartar.

New York promises to be almost as busy as Tonopah. or any other fighting camp. within the next few days.
 The fever has broken out for fair, with Bob Fitzsimmons about to fight Tommy Burns, Joe Cans figuring as 8 packer of Young Corbett for re- turn match with Tommy Murphy and Matty Murphy, and Matty Baldwin ready and willing to give Murphy a chance to wipe out that recent de- feat or take on Corbett.
 Old man Fitz frequently has these spells, and when he says he is com ing back he usually makes good. This time it would appear that he is in earnest, but the fight has not been pulled off yet, and with recollection of how Governor Pennypacker stopped the same proposed battle a year ago there is a chance that this one will be stopped.
 This time the date is fixed for March 16, in Philadelphia, with six rounds as the route. If there is no stop order. stranger things have hap pened than the old man of the ring scoring over this Canadian lacrosse player, and then where would be Burns-O' 'Brien proposed fight be?
 It would be up to Fitz to take on O'Brien, and on through the list. Funny, if after all, the old Australian should come back to his own.

TEST KICKING MACHINE.
Chicago Convict Elects to Take Pun
 ishment Rather Than Jail.

fshment Rather Than Ja1l.
 CHICAGO, Jan. 16.-The adjustable electric kicking and spanking machine on exhibition at the electric show has planted it's first series of kicks on the human form. There are four flying boots which whirl in circle, and Charles Gregory. the inventor, calls it ''the remorse motor"
 Police Inspector Wheeler furnished the remorse victim in the person of a prisoner, Ed Bloom. He threatened to send Mir. Bloom to the workhouse for two months for smashing city ordi- nances, but being deeply interested in the kicking machine from a police point of view offered Bloom his free dom if he would submit himself as a sacrifice to the machine.
 Bloom elected to be kicked. rather than 50 to the Bridewell He baked when brought to the Coliseum and saw with what smoothness and preci- sion the machine delivered kicks with in the zone of punishment
 That's all right. Bloom. Stand up and take it like man." said the in- spector.' A few scientists. anxious to learn if the kicking machine was su- perior to the clinched fist, the club or the beer bottle. watched the demon stration. Finally Mir. Bloom was put in range and held by two men. The inventor started it up at half speed, and Mir. Bloom sustained few terrific kicks and tried to escape.
 He plucked up more courage, and the machine was sent along at twenty revolutions a second. Ten seconds and Bloom was almost out In that time he had received almost 1000 kicks. His clothing was torn. his flesh was bruis- ed and his feelings injured. He was given his liberty. a new suit of clothes and some arnica.
 We put slippers on for small boys" said the inventor

POLO
WHIPPED BY
 NEW BRITAIN
Great Contest in Which Waterbury
 Took the Rear Seat Other Polo Contest..

We were beaten in polo last night and beaten by better team. That fact was plainly evident, for New Britain outplayed us in almost every point by better all around work. Both teams were on their mettle and in the first period 1t was as pretty a contest as has ever been witnessed on a polo floor. It was nip and tuck fight, too, with the ball danger ously near both cages on many occa- sions. It was only after seven min utes of fast playing that Schiffer caged the first ball for New Britain. For the next eight minutes 1t was a battle royal, but both goal tenders :. were working hard and no more scoring was done in that period. When the second period began Loxson started out to do things and in just forty-five seconds he had caged the ball and the score was tied. New Britain worked harder than ever now and again was 1t a fight to the bitter end and eight minutes and thirty seconds more had gone by when Frank Warner had caged another goal. Loxson went af- ter the ball again when play was re- sumed and in less than four minutes more Waterbury had again tied the score. The fast pace began to tell here on the local players and Schiffer and Frank Warner caged the next two. goals in easy fashion and the second period ended with New Brit ain two goals to the good.
 Murray got in the first goal in the last period and the fans sat up and cheered. Schiller and Frank War ner were not to be outdone. for they caged the next two and hope seemed to die out. Tommy Holderness, how ever. electrified the crowd by taking the ball down the rink and caging 1t himself. Then when Loxson caged the last one and We were within one goal of tie, everybody cheered. But there was only five seconds to play and New Britain made a stand and the game ended with the visitors one point to the good. The lineup and summary:

THE SPORTING NEWS.
SUTTON PLAYING WELL.

Beaver Falls, Ia, aJn 16.-Eharon's reorganized team. touted to be the greatest galaxy of stars ever gnther- ed together, came to town the other night and what Beaver Falls did to them is really shame to tell While Beaver aFlls slipped the pellet past Mallory i've times Sh9ron could not get single one past 'Fido Sutton, who was determined to present the Globe Trotters with goose egg. AL though the score was one sided it was undoubtedly as fine an exhibi- tion of clean and scientific polo AS ever was played here. Beaver Falls team work was perfect, being as pre- else as clock work. To make special mention of any particular player of the Beavers is impossible in a game where each player played star game in his position. The goal keeping of Sutton was never equalled on the To- cal floor. he being impregnable as a stone wall. Griffith and Gardner played great defense game, stop ping Sharon's team plays as soon as they started. Cunningham's and Lincoln's passing and goal shooting were very accurate. For sharon Ja- son did the best work. while Wiley was good on floor work. The attend ance was the largest of the season ex- cepting the holidays. and the crowd went wild over the fine work of the locals Beaver Falls, 5; Sharon, 0. The lineup:
