At meeting Of the executive commit
tee of the Montgomery County Anti-Sa-
loon League here yesterday afternoon the
president was directed to write to es h
congressional candidate in this district
asking him to pledge himself to support
the temperance measures to he presented

ganization will wage a vigorous warfare
on the candidate whose reply is not salts
factory The organization will also get
busy with the ''speakeasies" that are said
to be sprinsing up in various sections of
the county. 1t was decided to institute

The first fox hunt under the auspices OF
the montgomery Country Club was held
yesterday afternoon. \ dozen members
of the club with twenty hounds left the
clubhouse about o'clock and proceeded
10 point on Watts branch, two miles
distant. where scent was quickly
struck. For a while the chase which fol
lowed was lively one. but the dryness
and heavy underground were too much
for the hounds. and ''Reynard" escaped.
A second scent was struck later and an
exciting chase followed. but the fox also
got away. Those who participated were
j. Abby Henderson, master of hounds:
Edward c. Peter, Benjamin P. Gott, An.
drew J. Cummings. Cecil Allnutt, DIR.
Fred Henderson. Harry Beard, w. Outer
bridge Spates. Clifton Veirs and Misses
Finley and Crozier.
Both the republicans and democrats
were active at the registration places
here yesterday and as a result large
number of names were added to the
lists. Ninety-seven were cited to show
cause why their names should not be
stricken from the books. the republican
list containing fifty-four names, and that
of the democrats forty-two.

CORBETT TOO MUCH
FOR "KID" SULLIVAN

PHILADELPHIA, October T. Fred
Corbett, the young Italian lightweight,
put another notch in his gun last night
when he put Kid Sullivan of Washing
ton on his list of victims. They met at
the Douglas Athletic Club before fair
sized crowd, and merrily did they slug
each other. with honors even for three
rounds. Sullivan was sent to his knees
in the second round by a right-hand up
percut to the jaw. In the third he re-
turned the compliment bringing COrbett
to one knee by full right-hand swing
to the jaw.
The pace set by Corbett was too fast
for Sullivan, who is not las young as
he used to be- and in the last three
chapters he did quite a bit of stalling
and holding to stick the limit. 1t looked
bad for the lad from Washington in the
early part of the sixth, when Corbett
sent him to the floor. but by good gen.
eralship he was there at the esd. Cor
bett had his left eye damned up while
Sullivan was generally marked up. 1t
was good bout from the spectators
viewpoint. The rest of the bouts were
good. Tommy Stone knocked out Young
Cremo in the third round; Joe Hrst won
from Joe Golden in six hurricane rounds +;
Eddie Doyle was to clever for Pal Moore.
and had a good lead at the end of the
sixth round; Harry Cook of Doylestown
was a bit big for Terry Fitzgerald, and
won over him in six hard rounds.

MORE GREEN CARS.
That Color Apparently the Favorite

From the New York Sun.
ing. Cars of this color were seen first on
ODD street; then they appeared on 34th
street, and now they have been seen down
Broadway and up Lenox avenue, these
green cars being on the Metropolitan
lines 1t looks as If the Metropolitan's re-
ceivers had decided to change the color
of it's cars from their long familiar yellow
to this new color. a dark green, and as If
whenever a car went into the paint shop
to be repainted it was turned out in the
newly adopted color. thus steadily SWELL
ing the number of the green cars and
spreading them on the company's various
lines.
There was once in New York street
car line company known as the green line,
because green was the predominant color
of it's cars. 1t started on the East Side
at the Grand street ferry and worked
across town by zigZag course to bring
I'D finally on the West Side at the 42d
street ferry. returning by the same route.
Going west the green cars hit Broadway
at 2Sd street and ambled up the great
thoroughfare to turn Off west at 34th
street.
The green cars were sort of instftu-
ton. Traversing the city as they did,
and travelling also more or less north and
south, they went through more different
parts of the city and among more differ
emit people and had a more varied lot of
passengers than any other street car line
In the city.

Coffee That Is Scarce.
From the New York Tribune.

Coffee is the national drink of Turkey.
That used in the City of Smyrna comes
principally from Brazil. The best quality
of imported coffee is the Arabian. but 1t
is so expensive that only the richer
classes can afford to buy 1t. Brazilian
coffee is the staple product in this part
Of the world. and reaches this port
chiefly through commission houses in
London, Hamburg and Marseille. SFay-
ments are cash against the delivery Of
the shipping documents. The annual i'm
ports amount to about O,OOO.OOO pounds.
BRAZILIAN coffee is sold by retailers at 10
to 20 cents per pound, while the Arabian
product often costs more than double this
sum.

A SIMPLE QUESTION,
Milford People Are Requested to Hon
estlY Answer This.

Is not the word Of a representative
citizen Of Milford more convincing than
the doubtful utterances Of people living
everyw here else in The Union Read
this:
Robert c. WynkoOp, Milford, Del,
saws: "Doan's Kidney Pills helped me
a number of years ago and in 1903 1
made a statement endorsing them, and
today, May End, 1907, reiteTate all
that said in my former statement and
add to it that the cure Doan's Kidney
Pills made of my kidney complaint,
backache and urinary weakness has
lasted until now and from all appear
ances will last my lifetime. My COM
plant was inactive kidneys which sf-
fected me in a number Of ways. My
back ached across the lOins, through
the kidneys, up my spine to the back
of my neck, at times so severe as to I'M
fit me for work. Irregular secretions
also annoyed me, at times being en-
tirely too frequent, at other times stag
nant. highly colored, with a sediment
deposit. The least cold l caught settled
over my kidneys causing me much suf-
fering. After using a number ofreme-
dies and getting no relief, l began using
Doan's Kidney Pills. They gave me
ease at once, my kidneys were invigor-
ated, and q marked improvement was
manifested at once. Continuing their
use, they made thorough cure Of my
com plant and from that day to this,
there has been no indication Of retHrn
of the complaint"

Milford Firemen Serve Notice and Quit.

In view OF the fact that the appaT
atu= to fight fire, provided by the Light
aud Water Commission, che Town OF
Milford has been permitted to get
into such condition as to be only an
apology for a first class equipment, this
paper last week told the whole truth
and held the facts up o.public inspec
ton. This was so moTtifying to the
men having the fire apparatus in
charge, that they have siuc given the
Light and Water Commission notice
that they will no longer continue the
conditions, and respectfully turn the
apparatus over to the board. This leaves
the matter up to the citizens Of the
town. What will they do about il ?
We suggest, that meeting be held
this Friday evening, and an organizs'
ton be formed to take charge Of the
matter at once. So far as the Old Vol
unteer Fire Company, which was at
one time chartered, but which long
since failed to comply with the legal
requirements OF the charter, is concerned
it has no weight at all. Other incOr-
porated companies could make the
same assertions viz that they were
the Volunteer Fire Company etc.
