Classy Illinois Team Beats Crippled

TWO PLAYERS MISSING
Dadant and Belknap no Longer on
the Team-PrinceviIle Plays
In Mount Pleasant
Tonight.

With two of its best players out OF
the game, the local Y. M. C. A. basket
ball team went down in defeat before
the fast Princeville "Keystones," a
team composed of strong, rangy play
ers who have good team work and
use excellent judgment. The men
missing from the ''Y' lineup were
Dadant and Belknap, both guards, and
although Duncan and Sheldon, the sub
stitutes, played fairly we'll, they were
unable to hold down the visiting for
wards to any extent, the latter espec-
tally being outclassed by his man,
while Bliss, playing against Duncan,
was only able to cage the sphere once.
The final score was 40 to 30.
Most of the points were made in
the first half, at the end of that per-
iod, the visitors being further ahead
than at the conclusion of the contest.
Allen started out at center for Keo-
kuk but was supplanted in the second
half by C. King, who had been play
ing forward while he in turn was re-
lieved by Burke. G. King proved to
be the star basket shooter of the "Y''
bunch, negotiating four shots, while
Hide. the visitors left forward, put
the ball through the ring on seven oc.
casions. On free throws, Duncan
scored seven points out Of nine
chances.

resented Keokuk last night, might be
able to win from the Illinois team

A Bit of History.

Years ago, Mrs. Popel. TIE real
founder of the Popel and Giller brew
ing Company, made a kettle of beer
on an old stove in her home In War
saw. That was the first beer that was
ever made in the Illinois city. At first
the brew was made only for immedl-
ate family use but later neighbors and
towns-people hearing Of the excellent
beverage made by Madame Popel, re-
auested some and it was in this way
that the first beer of Warsaw was first
started. Later, Mr.. Popel with the aid
of his wife, started a small brewery
and with a little one-horse wagon ped
died the beverage about that vicinity.
From that source to the present
modern equipped, large establishment
has the firm of Popel & Giller grown
John III. Giller is step-son of Mr.
Popel and it was from an uncle in
Kansas that he learned the brewing
business and then returned to War

At the time the Franciscans discovered Utah

rude construction and were grouped together in

porary abodes. for when conditions were unfavor-
able or a contagious or malignant disease visited
their encampment they burned their cabins and
choose another site.
Their miserable shelters were more often wind,
breaks than huts, but where cabins were thrown up
they were formed from branches of the artemisa,
cane and brush, or limbs of the cottonwood In
winter these cabins were heated by ground fire

At the feast of st, Agnes in January of each
year, one of the most interesting ceremonies takes
place Two snow-white- lambs without spot or
blemlsh, are brought into the church and each in
a separate basket, is laid upon the altar One is
symbol OF beautiful innocence, the other of stain
less sacrifice Every detail in the blessing of these
lambs has been prescribed by the custom of CEN
turtles. The Abbot of the Canons Regular of the
Lateran IS the appointed dignitary to perform the
blessing, and when it has been completed the lambs
committed to the master of ceremonies of the
LateraD- His solemn duty consists in presenting
Them to the Holy Father, who graciously accepts
the pleasing gift.
By orders of the Pope they are entrusted to the
nuns of st. Cecilia in Trastevere where they re-
ceive every attention. Near Easter their white
wool Is carefully shorn from these precious lambs
is sent to the Pope. and is afterwards woven into
Palhums, one of which is sent to the Archbishop
who has come to Office during the year
