FOOTBALL
BoWDoIN WORKING HARD.
Philosophical Over Slump Which Cost
the Bates Game.

Brunswick. Me. Nov. 1O.-The
entire Bowdoin team reported Monday
afternoon and hard practice was be-
gun for the game with the University
Of Maine which will be played at
Orono next Saturday. That game
will no doubt be the hardest which
Bowdoin has played this season. The
team all recognize the fact that each
Of the other Maine colleges make
special efforts to defeat the Bowdoin
team and each regards the Bowdoin
game as the big game of its schedule.
No excuses are offered for the de-
feat of the team by Bates Saturday
The students are philosophical about
the matter, believing in the old saying
that every football team has at least
one time in a season when 1t takes a
slump and they think Saturday was
BoWdOinS day for Slumping. me
Bowdoin team did not play the snappy
game which it has been playing and
which it is capable OF playing. The
rest of the week will be devoted to
secret practice.
There will be no overconfidence
next Saturday A big crowd of sup
porters will go with the team to
Orono.
Coach McClave has not intimated
that there. will be any changes In the
lineup for the next game. 1t was re-
garded as an encouraging sign that
not only was the first team on mana
this afternoon, but the second team
and a number of the substitute play
ers. The BoWdoin spirit is IN evil
dence and every thing will be done TO
make a good showing in the contest
against Maine.
If BoWdoin should win from Name
she will be all ready to play Off a tie
with Colby. The feeling here is that
if would be more satisfactory to every
one to have the championship clearly
settled than to have tie between the
two teams. 1t is we'll understood here
that the Colby players. students and
supporters believe that BoWdoin could
be easily defeated in another contest
but that does not terrify the BoWdoln
men. They are perfectly willing to
try conclusions again and let the best
team win If Maine wins from
Bowdoin, it is hoped that the former
will play off the tie which would then
be with Colby. 1t would then be
settled to every ones satisfaction
Ouite a number of the football fol-
lowers seem to believe that Colby has
the strongest and fastest aggregation
of any of the Maine colleges. This
may or may not be so. 1t is largely
matter of opinion among the partlsans
of the different colleges.

if the team had played the game like
it did last Saturday, neither Colby

it's weakness when attempting punts. one
was blocked by Perry and on a second
attempt Towle was through the line and

his punt. The defence of the home team
was decidedly strong and the attack was
the fiercest and best that has been seen
this year. Everyb body tackled like lends

To the nervy tackling of Hussey, the
midget quarterback, is due the honor OF
twice preventing a touchdown. Burgess,

Saturday to Portland High school by
a score Of / to O. Kent's Hill takes ex-
ceptions to this report. AT the very
end of the game a dispute arose over
a question of time. Both timekeepers
agreed that there was one minute 10
play. From this point Portland rushed
the ball for three downs. The referee
blew the whistle and announced that
time was up and the game at an end.
The Portland timekeeper came on the
field and declared there was half
minute yet to play. Kent's HIS time
keeper declared there was not. Nelth-
er timekeeper was provided with q
stop watch. kent's Hills man kept the
time accurately on paper, while Port
lands man was attempting to keep 1T
mentally. The game having been de-
clared at an end and kent'S Hill hav-

which would not be listened too, gave
the kents Hill team every right to
the game, and score of to 0. AS the

Members of The Christian
Church Held Three
Services.
DIR. RAINES PREACHED.
Ministers of City Were Pres
ent And Took
Part.

Three large audiences attended the
services at the Christian church Sun
day. DR.. Raines, of Cincinnati, preach
ed at all the services. 1t is estimated
that fully one thousand people were
present at the dedication service in
the morning and fully as many in
afternoon and night services. 5,
The "Roll Call" services began at
800 o'clock in the afternoon and
lasted nearly two hours.
The pastor, Rev. H. D. Smith. had
the ushers to distribute cards
through the audience and asked
every person present, regardless of
kchurch connections, to write their
names on the cards, which he said,
would be interesting reading fifty
years from now.
The ministers of the city were on
the platform. Rev. H. H. Branch,
pastor of the Ninth Street Presby-
terian church, read the Scriptures
and Dr.M A. Jenkens, pastor of the
Baptist church, lead in prayer.
Dr.. Raines in most interesting
talk gave an account of what his de-
nomination is doing in the foreign
missionary field, touching also on
what other denominations are doing.
His theme was "The Work, The
Workers and Where the Money
Comes From"

which he thanked Speaker Gooch for

the Republicans in the victory they
had won, and thanked the Demo.
cracts who bolted Beckham and vot-
ed for him. He said he had nothing
but the very kindest feelings for his
distinguished opponent. He said
that as a asenator from Kentucky he
would vote for the repeal of the six
cent tax on tobacco, as he believed
it to be the best for the farmers.
Ex-Gov. Beckham was called for,
but he had left the assembly hall

Pleads For the Enforcement
of Law By the PeO-
pie.
HEARDBY GREAT CROWD
Given Close Attention By
Hundreds of Good
Citizens.

Hon. Helm Bruce spoke yesterday
at the court house in the interest of
law and order and was heard by
crowd that packed every available
foot of standing room in the court
room and gallery. Hundreds were
turned away unable to get in the
room.
: Mr.. Bruce came under the aus
pices of the Law and Order League
and was introduced by Rev. G. H. H.
Branch. For more than an hour he
held the closest attention of the
great crowd. He referred to the
fact that he was a native of Ken
lucky, told of his pride in the State
and of his shame over present con-
ditions. He said he did not come to
discuss the right or wrong of the
tobacco question, but the conditions
as they exist and the preservation of
law in Kentucky.
He reviewed the crimes of two
years, beginning with the fire at
Trenton and passing over the raids
at Princeton, Hopkinsville, Russell
vile, Dycusburg and Eddyville. He
referred to the destruction of plant
beds, the whipping of good citizens
and the burning only last week of
the home of Mr.. Gregory, near the
city. These crimes, he said, were
nothing short of red-handed an
archy and the destruction of govern
ment itself and this condition can
not remain in. Kentucky except at
the expense of the government it.
self.
The primal purpose of govern
ment is to peotect the individuals
and if this is not done the citizen
gets nothing for his taxes. The
right can and will prevail. Organ
lied virtue since the world began
has been stronger than organized
vice. You cannot break down the
barriers of law and have any govern
ment left. If we cannot enforce
laws we confess ourselves incapable,
of self. government.
The people themselves are the
basis of government and they must
enforce the law. If need be sacrifice
money, time, ease, comfort and
even life to uphold the law. Every
man should be required to take
stand for law or for anarchy: Let
every man choose which side he will
serve and no one be allowed to hide
his views. Give protection to those
who testify, even if an armed guard
must be maintained in their homes.
He closed with strong appeal to
Kentuckians to do their duty, as the
world was looking upon Kentucky
and watching the contest between
law and anarchy. Let Kentuckians
in whose veins flows the blood of he
roic ancestors, prove equal to the
test and show to the world that
there is no soil in Kentucky upon
which anarchy can flourish.
The speech was greeted by rounds
of applause at frequent intervals
and at the close Mr.. Bruce was Civ
en- an ovation.
