When the time came for the game
between the Aalas and the j. A. G. at
Aala Park yesterday afternoon, there
was no nine on hand for the j. A. G.
men to cross bats with. rs there
seemed no chance that the men would
arrive, the game was called on and
the only contest was between the Pa.
lamas and the c. A. c. I,
Both teams played an excellent
game and the scores were held down.
Espinda, the Palama pitcher, allowed
but five hits. while c. Akina, who
twirled the sphere for the c. A. c., al
lowed but seven to get by. Fielding
was good and there were but few err
rors on either side.
II was any mans game until the
eighth inning, when the Palamas got
scoring streak and did things. The
final score was to l In favor Of the
Palamas.
Following is the official score:

the backbone and Weber's wickedest
punches failed to make him vince.
The first round looked Weber, for
the sailor lad was SO plainly out OF
training that It seemed impossible
that he could last long against his
stocky antagonist. ~
He stayed by It, however, and soon
had Weber's face cut and bleeding.
Weber then played cautious, trying
to induce his opponent to tire him
self out with footwork. In the
clinches Weber had the Worst Of It,,
but Gagnon showed an ability to
duck under Swings that worried
Weber greatly.
Round after round found Gagnon
breathing heavily as the gong sound
ed, yet the succeeding round found
him eager for more. He outboxed
Weber on every occasion, but his
punches lacked steam and he found
II necessary to clinch repeatedly TO
gain time and wind.
Though the contest was plainly
Weber's, the game sailor lad was the
enc who got the cheers as the deci-
sion was announced.

led and Reilly poked his opponent in
the wind. The blow staggered the
Frisco lad and he flew wild on a
right to the jaw. Reilly was quick
to take up his opportunity and pass
ed over left swing which jolted
Lcahy's head. Leahy quickly picked
up. however, and sent in repeated
rights and lefte to his opponents
head. bringing the finish OF the
round rather in his favor.
In the eighth round neither man
did much and each showed that he
had gained a wholesome respect for
his opponent. Long-range sparring
failed to accomplish anything and
the gong found things even. y,
/! Leahy led off the ninth with a
singing Jolt 70 his opponents chin.
The latters head rocked perceptibly,
but he came back with grin on his
face and shot left to his opponents
ALREADY somewhat bunged-up eye.
Leahy retaliated by smashing his
right into Really's face but took
stiff left to the wind in the endeavor.
Leahy sent in right to wind and
left to jaw, rocking Reilly's head and
making him look dizzy as the gong
sounded. II was Leahy's round.
In the tenth Leahy's wicked right
began to show up and the local boy
got several whacks on the head
which Jared him considerably. He
showed remarkable ability to take
punishment. however, and gave
about as good as he got. Toward the
end of the round Leahy sent home
several stiff ones, effectually ducking
a wicked right swing which his OPP
ponent attempted in very apparent
effort to land haymaker.
In the eleventh Reilly again show
led caution and kept Leahy at arms
length, sending in several left jolts
which did not improve the condition
of Leahys eye. Leahy managed to
get in a stiff right to jaw, however,
and thus evened up matters as the
gong rang.
In the twelfth round, both of the
boys spared at long range, rushing
into "A clinch as Reilly led for Leahy's
, Jaw. Reilly sent in two rights to
Leahy's eye and managed to close
the organ little farther. Leahy
then became cautious and fought
away, guarding his face carefully
and taking several stiff ones to the
wind in consequence. The round
was very much Reilly's.
Reilly led OF the thirteenth with
a right to Jaw and started to mix 1t.
, Leahy stopped the operation with n
left to wind and right to face. and
kept honors even at the finish.
Round fourteen was a shade in
Reilly's favor. He did not get home
many punches, but he forced the
fighting. Leahy evidently was afraid
of his eye. for he stood away and
lept his guard high. The men spar.

eight, speaking of the work of the
Woman's Christian Temperance Union,
Mr.. Phelps says:
Zone of the greatest weapons employed by
the w. C.. T. u was the introduction of
effects of alcohol literature into the school
books. Most of this literature exagger-
ated and much of it not founded on scien-
tihc fact that some ten years ago it was
investigated and corrected by committee of
fifty, appointed largely through the efforts of
temperance leaders"
1t is hardly worth while at this late
date to point out in detail Mr.. Phelps
mistakes in this matter. In no essen
tial particular was the school literature
endorsed by the w. C. T. U. ever found
to be exaggerated or inaccurate. The
investigation by the Committee of
Fifty was not an investigation but a
hostile attack from pro-liquor interests,
the Committee of Fifty" being an Or
ganization, not appointed by temperance
leaders but self-appointed from among
drinking men hostile to the Prohibition
idea. Nor were the textbooks in ques-
ton ever "corrected' by those critics.
On the first page of his article, page
two hundred eighty-hve of the maya
zine, Mr. Phelps represents Ohio as
In point of fact, not a single county has
yet voted at all under Ohio's county
option law, though a very few counties
have probably now voted out the saloon
in all their townships.
In the same paragraph North Caro-
lima is represented as likely to go dry
within a year" when at the time when
the article was written a campaign was
on in North Carolina, eliminating in an
election on the twenty-sixth of May.
Again speaking of New York, Mr..
Phelps says:
"Out of nine hundred and thirtythree New
York townships the Anti-Saloonists have made
three hundred and twenty four dry"
Probably Mr.. Phelps did not know
that New York had that many dry"
townships before the Anti-Saloon
League was organized in the state

WHAT DID THEY SAY?

Editor of THE NATIONAL PROHIBITION
IsT Here is what the Republican plat
form declares on the great Temperance
question:
"What does a man love more than life;
Hate more than death or mortal strife;
That which contented desire;
The poor possess, the rich requires
The miser spends, the spendthrift saves,
And all men carry to their graves?'
Ask a Republican if he can guess it.

service TO write articles ABOUT the
prohibition wave," that we should
have some curious and wonderful in
formation thrust upon us from tic
pages of periodicals, the editors of
which a year ago had never dreamed
of the Prohibition movement. 1t has
remained, however, for the ByoadVay
Magazine, in its article, "The Greatest
Problem Since Slavery" written by
Darlington A. Phelps, to achieve the
heights of the erroneous. Perhaps it
ought to be said for Mr.. Phelps that
the matter that he puts before the pub
lie bears all the earmarks of having
been obtained in certain office located
exactly between 1OS and 112 East One
Hundred Twenty street, New
York, and he is probably not to blame
for the total of errors that his article
contains.
With a grim accidental humor the
article is prefaced by an editorial note
which announces that "This article
gives for the first time, all the tremen-
dous facts of the case in panoramic
detail"
1t must strike the most prejudiced
reader as highly remarkable thing
that in the eight pages of his article,
Mr.. Phelps never once mentions the
Prohibition party, and that the names
of only two people ever connected with
the Prohibition party appear, Frances
| Willard and Neal Dow. Even when the
election of Mr. Dan R. Sheen to the
Illinois legislature from the whisky
| city of Peoria, is mentioned, Mr..
Sheen's name is suppressed and the in
cident is distorted as the election of can
Anti Saloon League man.
To note the numerous errors in de-
tail would be impossible within the
scope of this article, but few of the
more g1aring may be pointed out On
page two hundred eighty-seven, talking
about what Mr.. Phelps calls "the
drunken period of American history
he says:
Everybody drank. The annual consumption
of malt and alcoholic, liquors was fifty quarts
| to the family, about double what it is
now.''
If Mr.. Phelps had INDUCED in the I'M
usual exercise of reading up on his
subject before writing his article, he
would have discovered that the present
per capita consumption of liquor in the
United States is 1858 gallons. Accord
ing to the last census the average
American private family contains 40
persons. This gives per family con-
: sumption of 1OS.23S gallons per amnum,
or minute fraction less than 433
: quarts. Further than this, if Mr.. Phelps
had consulted the United States Sta
tistical Abstract he would have dis
covered that never in the history of the
country was the per capita liquor con-
sumption so great as it was during the
latest fiscal year, and that in 1910, which
is supposed to lie in the depths of the
drunken PERIOD" the total per capita
consumption of all kinds of liquors was
only 4.19 gallons
Upon the same page Mr. Phelps
perpetrates a SANDER upon the memory
of DR.. Billy ]. Clark. He says:
"Along in 1908 a New Yorker named
Clark, persuaded some forty friends to eschew
liquor. and confne their attentions to beer

amateur of Mr. Phelps caliber to know

QUEER OLD REMEDIES.
1t was found that these people
use some remedies at least which
were prescribed in English
medical works as far back as
1706, and one of these is so singu-
Lar that it deserves to be record
ed, it being three live lice in a
drink of whiskey, it being es-
teemed two hundred years ago
and now as a sovereign for fever.
Thus while there are a few ira
ditions, things are handed down.
| have no doubt that houses look
now as they did say 200 years
ago or more. Certainly in no
parts of the State except among
the Cherokees and a few of the
whites in the wilder portions of
the mountains, are there so many
homemade things. The houses
simply abound with them. These
people are good shots and when
they do shoot usually kill. One
lady at Pembroke still carries in
her body ball from the gun of
Henry Berry Lowery, who fired
it at her father. They love tc
fish and hunt. The shades OF
color are as varied as one car
see in a walk in Mexico, anC
some of the pronounced Indian
faces are wonderfully like those
of the Mexican Indians mot the

negroes, which was once, and
say up to third of a century ago,
all too frequent in North Carroll
ma, it is passing away. There
are some women of i'll repute
and there are some who sell
whiskey, but the race is on the
uplift. Yet it has, in largest
measure, to do the working out
of it's own fate and destiny; and
so told the Croatans as | stood
in their wagon after their own
band had played, and under the
signing music Of their pines, look
ing into their faces, and wonder
ing what the future would
bring.
One of the Cfoatans present
was Anderson LOcklear, who two
years ago went TO Washington,
had an audience with the Presi-
dent and was told by the latter Of
his special appreciation Of Lock
lear's invitation to visit North
Carolina and Roanoke island,
which Locklear said was the orig
inal home of his people, Indians
and whites. The President sale
that the history Of the Croatans
greatly interested him.
1t is found that the Croatans
have, to a remarkable degree,
that sense of direction which is
peculiar to all the types ofIndians
and which is so acute as to be al
most an instinct. Several Of
their people spoke about their USE
of cross bows, and so far as car
be ascertained they were the onl!
Indians in this country who useC
these weapons, which originated
on the other side of the Atlantic
and which the English used up t
the time of Sir Walter Raleigh.
