SAME OLD STORY
Wentworth Ties With Central High in
First Half and CayOrts Away in Second.

u iiai dho Sd'Uito away w oSNUlO.
The game between Wentworth and
Central High School at Kansas City
last Saturday was a repetition exact
ly of the game here with the Haskell
seconds earlier IN the season. The
best the cadets could get il the first
half was an even break, neither side
scoring, and then they scored almost
at wi. in the second session, making
a grand total of thirty.
Nearly the entire student body made
the trip to witness the game. The
cade and teachers left on a special
train at 9:l5 aud reached Independ-
ence shortly before eleven. They
parade around the square aud then
took the trolley to Kansas City.
Headed by the band the cadets made
a good showing in Kansas City and
rooted much better than the Central
students.
The Kansas City team had been re-
ported light; but this lightness was
not apparent. They played the cadets
to a staudstill in the first half. Once
they came near scoring, when toward
the end of this half they got the bail
on a recovered punt on Wentworth's
t~wo-yard line. The scrappers from
Lexington, however, dug their toes
into the soil and IN three downs the
C%entralites did not gam at all.
That was their one and only chance.
For a few minutes the second halt
was also hard fought. Cook I and
Austin had a fstic disagreement and
both were put off the field. Wyatt,
who took Cooks place, proved the bis
noise. Three times he caught hi;
stride and tore down the field like a
40 h. p. high geared roadster. Cook
II was the second star, making two
touchdowns, one after a run of 81
yards through the entire Contra.
team. Six lei tried to tackle him
but Hillix, who was interfering, dis
posed of three and Cook eluded tn.
other trio. Owens kicked all tn,
goals and played a good, consisten
game. Hurley, Hoge and Hillix wer
the other stars for Wentworth. Ed
wards and Stengle were the best 70

After the game the cadets returne
to Lexington on the special.

Fishing Party a Success.

Notwithstanding the GOODNESS Of the
climate, the fishing party held under
the auspices of the Epworth League
of the NJ. E Church proved a success
in every way and some of the sports
men secured rich hauls. And stranger
to relate, the game was ready to eat
when pulled out. About 100 people
enjoyed the sport and the League cof-
fers we're swelled considerably.
The prospective fisherman upon ar
rival at the camp, paid 10 cents for
future privileges, was provided with
a hook and a line and left to shift for
himself. The amount of eatables he
would consume tor his bunch depend
ed solely upon his ability with the
hook and line and several went hun
cry. The students of Central college
and w. NJ. A. we're unable to attend
and therefore the attendance was not
up to expectations.
About SIS dollars was added to the
league fund.

SEVENTEEN men LOST.
Boston Fishing Schooner Sunk in
Nova Scotian Waters,

Yarmouth, N. S., May 27.-The Bos-
ton fishing schooner Fame, command
ed by Captain Thomas Fay, was run
down and sunk on Shaspes bank by
the Dominion Atlantic line steamer
Boston and seventeen of the schoon-
er's crew of nineteen men were lost.
The collision happened in fog. The
Boston, which was bound from Boston
for Yarmouth, the officers state, was
proceeding at slow speed, the whistle
blowing constantly. Nothing was
heard or seen of any vessel until the
Boston smashed into the Fame. The
sharp Prov OF the steamer sliced the
stern off of the schooner and she sank
in three minutes. The Fame was
struck just aft of the main rigging.
The Boston was stopped and a
boat lowered, but by an accident it
capsized. Two more, however, were
sent Off in a few minutes. One of
them found Edward Pitts, the cook,
floating about supported by lifebelt
John Clark, the other survivor, was
swimming in the wreckage and was
hauled on board the lifeboat in an
exhausted condition The lifeboats
circled about for nearly an hour with
out finding others of the schooner's
crew. They had much difficulty in re-
turning to the Boston owing to the
fog

The senate was extremely quiet dur

only by the necessity Of remaining in
session for the engrossing and signing

The last days of the senate will be
memorable on account of the filibuster
of Messrs. La Toilette, Stone and Gore

by the remarkable interpretations of
the rules which go far to establish
cloture in a body noteworthy for the
freedom OF debate and by the final
passage of the currency bill.
At 4:3O o'clock the senate adopted
the report Of the conferees Of the two
houses Of congress on the Aidrich-

LEAK IN THE CROP REPORT
Theodore n. Price of New York,
Prominent Operator, Among
Those Involved.

Washington, May 30.-Almost stimuli
taneously in Washington and New

nent New York cotton operator; Fred

port for December, 1904, and paid
Haas S125,000 out of this sum. The
indictment charges that Haas paid
Holmes $1,000. for information on the
June report of 1905. The second
