The Lyceum rugby polo team, of
this city, defeated the Somerville

of being broken. The game was in
ff,een-minute halves. In the first
half each team scored a goal. In the
second half the local players did bet
ter work and Il feature of the game
WAS the excellent work of first rush
John Desmond. On one occasion in
rushing he delivered a whack that
cent the ball straight through the
goal.
The locals have now won two
games from the Somerville five, and
tied one. Another game may shortly
be arranged between these teams. The

OF INTEREST TO ELKs.

PHILADELPHIA, Mar. 26:-
Every hotel and available apartment
house is rapidly filling up for the
convention and reunion of the Ben
evolent and Protective Order of Elks
which is to be held in this city during
the week beginning July Is.
Hundreds of lodges have already
secured quarters, and those who are
contemplating attending the conyen-
ton and have NOT yet reserved rooms
arc advised to do so at once, and thus
avoid the many Inconvenience that
are certain to come with the last rush
hours.
In order to assist all Elks to secure
pleasant and desirable accommoda-
lions a special committee has COM
piled a directory of hotels and apart
ment houses which are still open for
reservation, and any information that
is desired regarding quarters will be
gladly furnished on application to the
hotel committee. As it is expected
that upward of 10000 visitors will
flock to Philadelphia during the re-
union week it would be best to look
after sleeping accommodations at
once.
Largest circulation-enough said.

DECORATING FOR THE ELKS.
Philadelphians Preparing to Beautify
City for July Convention.

PHILADELPHIA, Mar. 26:-Not
since the great centennial exposition
in 1876 have the business men of
Philadelphia made such elaborate
preparations for decorating their es-
Establishments as are now under way
for the convention and reunion of
the Elks, which is to be held here dur
ing the week beginning July 18th
next.
Not only will the merchants and
thousands of people in the principal
residential sections aid in identifying
the city for that occasion, but the
authorities, it is expected, will take
official cognizance of the convention
and expend thousands of dollars in
decorating and Illuminating the
Public Buildings" the largest and
costliest municipal structure in the
world. The electrical display on this
one building will be worth travelling
miles to e e In addition the COM
mittee is planning for numerous nov
ell effects in the matter of evening and
daylight decorations and the Court of
Honor which will be erected for a
distance of almost half a mile on
Broad street promises to be the most
magnificent piece of artistic work ev-
er attempted on a public highway.

PHILADELPHIA, Mar. 26:-Al-
though the convention and reunion
of the Benevolent and Protective
Order of Elks, which is To be held in

sands of visitors who will participate

been received by Philadelphia Lodge
that several nearby lodges are now
planning to open their homes for the
reception of the visiting hosts and be-
fore another month has passed a COM
plete program will have been ar
ranged for the entertainment of the
visitors in the ~neighboring cities.
Among the lodges which have already
indicated their intentions TO extend
special invitations to the visitors are
Camden, Atlantic City, Chester and
Long Branch. 1t is also believed that
'open house" will be kept by a mum
Der of other adjacent lodges, partic-
ularly those located at the larger sea-
shore and mountain resorts.
In Philadelphia all of the promin-
ent social clubs which have head
quarters of their own, will assist the
Elks in entertaining their guests.

Mayor Eugene +. Schmitz has been
dealt a severe blow by the supreme
court of this State is the declaration Of
attorneys Of this city who have just re-
ceived copies of the decision in the APP
pealed case Of the People vs.. Amer.
This decision dCprives the defendant in
a criminal case of the right Of appeal
for a new trial on the grounds of mis-
conduct on the part Of the district at
tOrney. a right which has been long
exercised by the superior courts Of Cal
ifornia.
The misconduct referred to is an act
in court by the district attorney which
is forbidden by law and which deprives
the defendant OF statutory right. In
the case Of the people the misconduct
was criticism by the district attorney
Of the defendant because he did not
take the witness stand, such criticism
being strictly forbidden by the penal
code.
That the decision as it stands is a
blow TO the Schmitz defense and greatly
affects the possible outcome OF the case
Is admitted by practically all OF the at
tOrneys. 1t is well known that the at
torueys of Mayor SChmitz have been
preparing TO appeal for a new trial ON
the ground of misconduct by the district
attorney or his representatives in case
of verdict of guilty by the jury
The defense declares openly that
Prosecutor Heney has been guilty OF
misconduct many times before the
SChmitz jury. To those sitting in court
IL has been evident many times that
Attorney John j. Barrett has often de-
iberately attempted TO bait Prosecutor
Heney into committing misconduct be-
fore the jury.
