their host.
The first half of the game was
fairly even, but the Rapids" crowd
disp aged a bunch of yellow" in
the last half and the Duluth bows
literally walked all over them.
In commenting on the game, the
Duluth News-Tribune says:
THE Grand Rapids City football
team may be all right in Itasca and
Beltrami counties but it will never
do at the head of the lakes. This
was demonstrated yesterday after
noon at the Athletic park when the
Spaldings laid over 10 to O beating
on the crew from the Pokegema
river country. The Spaldings
showed up the visitors in every
phase of old and new style football,
this being particularly true of the
play in the second half"

School football team Saturday by
the Bemidji High School football
team, and the Duluth team "wallop-

men the first session of the Roman
Catholic missionary congress in this
country opened in the First Regiment
armory in this city. To the CON-
municants who thronged the assembly
room the occasion had an added sig
niicance from the fact that it marks
the passing of the Roman Catholic

nations organized as hierarchical
uuitjes in the Roman Catholic church.
In his address of welcome to the
visiting delegates, who represent prac-
tically every parish and church in
this country and Canada, Archbishop
Quigley outlined the reasons and OBJ
ject of the missionary congress, de-
claring that the event marks the
change in the church in America
from missionary conditions to a full
share in the activities of the church
and should crystalline the missionary
spirit in the clergy and people.
In his address of welcome special
emphasis was laid by the archbishop
on the presence of Most Rev. Do
mede Falconio, archbishop Of Larissa
and special legate of Pope Plus x.
. Archbishop Falconio, at the conclu-
sion of the address of welcome, de-
livered an address in which he pro-
nounced the blessing of Pope Plus x.
on all taking part in the congress and
predicted a glorious growth for the
church under the new conditions.

Pointed Utterances on the Situa

Washington, Nov. 17.-Secretary
Root has made the following state
ment regarding the senatorial situa,
ton in New York:
Il think the Republicans in New
York who have expressed a wish to
bring about my election as senator
are entitled to definite statement of
my position.
81 am not seeking the Office of SEN

ought to be given to any one because
he wants it; but if the legislature of
New York, representing the people of
the state, feel that I can render useful
service to- the state and the country
in the senate and call upon me to rem
der that service shall respond to
their call and accept the Office
When Senator Chauncey M. Depew
of New York left the White House he
made some pointed utterances on the
senatorial situation in his state. He
was asked if he had come to Wash
ington to see the men whom he had
recently said were electing the next
senator from New York in Washing
ton.
well, the man who thinks he is
electing the senator has gone to Hot
Springs" said Senator Depew, refer

''There are three or four New York
men who spend much of their time
down here telling he president who
shall be appointed ambassadors

devoted to electing our senators.

the Atlantic seaboard of the United
States. More than 200 associations
are banded together to promote the
movement.
The president of the Deeper Water
ways association is Congressman J.
Hampton Moore of Philadelphia, who
delivered the address welcoming the
delegates and outlining the objects of
the association. He predicted a sue
work, declaring it to be one in which
the entire American people are vitality
interested.
Scope of the Associations Work.
In speaking of the associations
work Mr.. Moore said:
IF the opening of waterway from
the north side of Cape Cod to Long
Island sound means the saving of a
single life employed in the shipping
trade why should we not strive for
the completion of it?
when we know as a matter of rec
ord that hundreds of human lives are
lost upon the shoals Of Cape Cod and
that millions of dollars worth of val
! liable property is wrecked because
there is no inside passage why should
we hesitate to put our engineers at
work and make short cut inland that
will provide safe harbor for ship
ping and a haven for the men who
are engaged in that important occu-
patton?
IF the deepening Of an inland chan
the Chesapeake bay will give to Amer
lean ships of war safe inside pas
sage and a harbor for repairs or for
stores in times of peace or in times
of war and will save an outside sail
ing distance of hundreds of miles.
with all it's perils, why should a great
nation like this hesitate to provide
such deeper channel:
IF, again, and I regard this as of
greater concern to the common peo-
pie, the deepening of such a water
way between any such ports along
the Atlantic coast or from any point
of production to any point Of ship
| ment will enable the farmers or the
! manufacturers to do more business
than they hitherto have done or will
provide facilities that will attract
trade and encourage the development
of American shipping why should we
not provide such waterways and thus
strengthen the hands of the bread

Of Albert T. Patrick, the New York
lawyer who is serving life sentence
in the state prison at Sing Sing, N. Y,
on the charge of having murdered the
millionaire, William M. Rice, for a
writ of habeas corpus was decided by
the supreme court of the United

Patrick charged that the case against
him was conspiracy and urged that
in committing the sentence of death
which the court imposed upon him to
one of life imprisonment Governor

method of punishment. He asked to
be released from prison on the theory
that the whole proceeding had been
unconstitutional and invalid. The de
