Some interested observers are sug

large class of people who spend the
Sabbath, either as observers, or par
ticipants of base ball, tennis or other
sports and the idea is that if these
people cannot be induced to attend
church they should have the benefit
of religious instruction where they
may be found at the grounds.
Whether this plan will be generally
favored is doubtful. but the prevel
ent disposition OF many 10 while

is certain sooner or later TO attract
public attention to the matter of Sun

his own idess as to the propriety OF
spending the day of rest in such
amusements but he cannot overlook
the example he sets in doing it in q
most public manner. The younger
generation is prone to copy the exam

them thus engaged, 1t is hard to
place them under restraint. For
those who labor all the week, bread
winning for their families, there
may be some excuse that they need

EASY WITH MILLER

PHILADELPHIA, Pa. Oct. e--Ahe
Attell, the feather-w weight champion of
America, defeated Charley Miller. Of
this city, in six rounds at the Douglas
Athletic Club before a crowd that
packed the place to the doors. Attell
had not trained any for the bout, and
this fact told a little on him before
the end Of the six rounds. But he
was entirely too fast for Miller and
had the best of every round. the local
boxer being the receiver general all
the way, and being seldom able to hit
Atten when the latter wanted to pre-
vent him. Attell tired a bit in the
last round. but he was still able TO
make Buck look like a novice even in
that round.

OF course the one factor responsible
for the big supply Of partridges this
fall IS the dry weather when the young
birds were coming on last spring and
summer. Comparatively speaking, al
most none of the nedglings were drown
ed by heavy rains which frequently
exterminates their entire broods. Then,
feeding grounds were unusually proli-
nc. which gave the young birds a good
start on life. and has since made them
