Thanksgiving Day. where ~
games wer" pulled oH With y,
Mountain park teams. The ffst
gaines sas between the girls auti
started about II o'-clock. The
C"lleee girls did snme splendid
playing. but the Nourtain girls
had been accustomed to using
hays rules. At the end ~ the
first half the score stood 6 Ia 4 H.
favor VI the College In addition
to this one ~ the College girls
had black eye, one o rib near
~ fractured and one was unable
to play the second half ut all.
In the second half all adds were
against the COLLEGE, girls. The
lights air and ennumerable bruis-
rs left them in no condition t.
play ball. The Mountain girls
had no such condition to contend
with and as the College girls
were out of commissior did thsir
best work. The College girls
did nothing the last half, bat
puff and try THAR best. and the
final score stood IL to 5 in favor
0f Mountain Park.
After the game q sumptious
dinner was served on the grounds
In the afternoon q game was play
ed betwean the boys teams. L.
the firss half the College made
two felt throws and Mountain
Park two foul throws. In the
game the College also gave Noun
tain Park u field throw, making
the score 4 to 4.
In the second half no field throw
was made on either side, Mt.
Park made two foul throwns and
until three quarters of a minute
before the game close the College
had only made one. Then Mt.
Park fouled and the College
threw a goal. This tied the game.
AS Basket ball will not permit
of a game ending in q tie, the
ball was again put in play. The
College fonled and Mt. Park got
q free throw. Every ones heart
stood still for a minute, but the
favor of the gods was with us and
so they missed the basket. 1t
was at once hurled back to the
College goal and the Colleg made
Q field throw. So the game end
ed with q score of 8 to 6 in favor
of the College. Mt. Park never
made one. field throw during the
entire game, while the College
made three for herself and one
for them.
So the crowd dispersed with
nothing, but the best of feelings
Every one was happy, Mt. Park
because they had won, aud TIE
College because they had.

beginning to show signs of improve
ment. Dr. R. F. Boyd, his physician,
has given him the best attention that
it was possible and after heroic eff
forts was able to make science triumph
over disease. The Bishop has worked
exceedingly hard during the last
twelve months. In the early spring he
was in Texas looking after educational
matters, which in itself was an ardu-
Gus task. Immediately after he closed
his spring rally there he set out on a
long journey from Waco, Texas, to
Norfolk, Va, distance of over two
thousand miles by the route the dele
cation went. At the close of the Gener-
al Conference he went direct to the
Bishops Council at Wherefore Uni
versity, Xenia, Ohio, from there he
came home and rested few days only
before leaving for his work in Texas
again So he has been in dead strain
for nearly twelve months, and the col
lapse when it did come was very Sc
we're. The doctor is satisfied now that
Bishop Tyree is out of danger, and
that his recovery will be steady, but
probably slow.

his character, the nobility of his life
and his epoch making career"
The Senate Committee on Appropri-
alton has taken favorable action on
the resolution and has referred it to
the Committee on Library.
The further recommendation is
made that the centennial of the birth
of Lincoln, the 18th of next February,
be set aside by all Americans, all mu-
inequalities and towns and all associa-
tions and organizations to honor his
memory
Emphasis is placed on the fact that
as Lincoln had most of his setbacks in
his early years and conquered them, it
should spur on the youth of to-day
In view of this fact, it is set forth
that appropriate exercises should be
held in all seats of learning.

TEXAS NOT YET CERTAIN.

San Antonio, Texas, Jan. 10.-There
seems to be no certainty about the
State going dry, in fact, this city
would be seriously hurt if such were
the case. There are three very large
brewery plants here. They employ
hundreds of men and ship carloads of
beer to Mexico, and since it is "The
gateway to Mexico" they hold the
trade with ease. The following dis
patch from Austin shows that Texas
is not quite gone and that the state
may yet do large business with the
outside world and with the Republic
to the South:
Austin, Texas, January 49,. The
second test vote in regard to the
submission of a constitutional amend
ment providing for Statewide prohi-
bition in the House of the Texas Legis-
lature to-day showed those who favor
ed prohibition to be still three votes
short of the number required to carry
the measure. The question was the
dispensing with the third reading and
the submission of the bill to vote
While the prohibition faction defeated
the effort of the anti-prohibitionists
to have the bill put on final passage
by a vote of sc to 3S it will require
SO votes, two-thirds of the member
ship of the House, to secure its en-
actment The vote to-day followed
| debate at times very bitter.

complaints from citizens who said
the game was insulting to loyal
