Judge Sutton Speaks at Presbyterian
Church on Civic Reform
GUN CLUB CLOSES ITS SEASON
Three Men Make Scores Of 100 Per
Cent in Final Match-ScheduIe
for Foot Ball Team
Partly Made.

Judge A. L. Sutton addressed the Christ
ian Endeavor society at the Presbyterian
church last night on the problems of civic
ton a trip which he had recently made to
numerous eastern cities both in the United
States and Canada. He said the large per-
centage of crime was caused by the hud-
died life of the great cities. He mentioned
San Francisco as the city most particularly
noted for its invitation to the criminal
classes and the vices as a wide-open town.
Chicago he placed as probably second. New
York and Buffalo were not far behind.
He contrasted the cities of the United
States with Toronto, Canada, in a manner
which, in his opinion, left much credit on
the side of the Canadian city, He said there
were no saloons in Toronto. On Sunday all
business ceased and the observance was
strictly maintained by the law Of the prov
ince. Just across at Niagara and Buffalo,
Sunday appeared to him like any other day
in the week. In Toronto he said he saw
none of the sweatshop conditions he found
in Chicago. He said, most of this dis
tressing and extreme poverty is because
the head OF the family, the father, spends
for drink the money he should expend on
his family. These conditions are more and
more receiving the attention of people not
In a partisan way, but from an economic
basis. I have faith to believe that Ameri-
can intelligence would soon clean up the
American cities and make them models
Of cleanliness and thrift as we'll as models
of energy"

Gun Club Closes Season.

The final shoot of the South Omaha Gun
club yesterday afternoon was the best of
the season, The contestants were required
to shoot under a system of handicaps at
100 targets each.
Nearly 800 people watched the marksmen.
The fresh north wind which blew directly
in the faces of the men as they shot,
proved so serious a handicap that no very
high scores were made. Frank Dworak,
the scratchman of the tournament sue
ceeded in breaking more birds than anyone
else, but he broke only IS. His average for
the entire season previously was IS.
Under the handicap given letter Hoff~
man and zago each tied for first place,
breaking seventy-five birds, their handicap
giving them the nominal score of 100 per
cent. The first ten prizes were awarded
under the following scores, allowing for the
hahdicaps:

about six weeks.
B. F. Cords, of Oldham, died
Sunday of heart disease. Mr.. Cords
was a business man of that town who

The Eastern Educational Associ-
alton at Brookings is to be held on
Thursday and Friday of next week
instead of on Friday and Saturday as
announced in our last issue. Among
the Kingsbury county teachers on the
program we note the m of Prof.
j. S. Ellis, of Lake Preston, @. e. Voas,
of Erwin, Mrs. McCarty and Miss
Howard, of De Smet, and Misses
Anna Lewis and Florence Phillips,
and John B. Dryer of the east end of
the county. No doubt there will be a
good attendance of Kingsbury county
teachers at this meeting.
We understand that De Smet will
again vote on the license question, a
petition to that effect having been in
circulation the latter part of last week
and the first of this, and the required
number of freeholder voters having
signed the same. We had thought
that the question of the sale of intox-
icating liquors would not come up
this year. The heavy majority against
it a year ago, together with the addi-
tional sentiment created against the
liquor traffic by the revival services
