Grasses Euerxuhsrs.

Grasses are widely distributed. We
usually think of them as existing in
our temperate zones only. because here
we have the perennial pastures and
meadows. They are, however, to be
found so far north that the soil Is fro
zen under them during the greater part
of the year, while they are also com
mon to parts Of the south where the
frost Is never known. Even the noun
tain tops that are clothed with perpet-
ual snow have just below the snow
line their carpets Of poas that grow
and bloom through brief period every
year. The grasses push hard against
the eternal SHOWS.

A SECOND VICTORY.
Local Foot Ball Team Again
Trims the Groton Eleven
in a Close Game.

The first game of the foot bali season
to be played in this city took place on
the east gridiron last Friday afternoon
when the Groton eleven bowed TO the
local high school foot ball team in as
hot and closely contested game as will
likely be played here this year. This
was the second game to be played
between these two teams and was the
second victory for the locals After 40
minutes of play there was only one
touchdown made and that in the second
half which with the kick gave Webster
total of g.
Not very large crowd witnessed the
game but it is only the same old story
for Webster when it comes to outdoor
sports. Every one in the city is inter.
ested in seeing our local teams, no mat
ter what they play, win every contest
but when it comes to going out and
helping the victory with little lung
power or helping on the expenses with
a quarter, it is generally let 10 few.

three downs but lost the ball on the
next three on the As yard line. After
two downs Webster punted to the Is
yard line and carried to the 5 yard line
on the second down but here a tumble
lost the ball just as touchdown was
sure. Groton punted to the 30 yard
line when Webster again got the bal
and carried it to the Is yard line where
the ball was again lost to Groton who,
after two downs punted TO the 40 yard
line. The ball was again worked to
the goal but touchdown was not made
and Groton gained the ball and punted
it to Webster's 80 yard line and the half
was finished in the center of the field.

Webster got the ball on their As yard
line and carried it to Groton's 20 yard
line where the ball was lost on the sec.

She criticised our faults, but she be-

she declared ut a dinner that II was
the proper social sequence to get, like

when she looked at the uncouth mil

Ancient Mariners.

That the Egyptians made sea voy-
ages long before the time of Solomon,
hitherto considered the first ocean
traveller on large scale, Is declared
by Professor James III. Breasted to
be conclusively proved by tablet
found by him In Palermo, Sicily. dur
Ing the three years exploring trip
from which he recently returned. Pro
fessor Breasted asserts that the In
scriptions ON the tablet show that the
Egyptian king who built the first
pyramids made voyage with forty
ships across the Mediterranean to
Lebanon to obtain cedar for tenn
pie. This journey, according to the
professor, was made In the thirtieth
century b. c., or 1000 years before
Solomon made his voyage for a sim.
liar purpose.
