THE DOUBLE BILL AS SEEN
BY A SURFING SPECTATOR

An exceptionally large crowd turned
out to witness the Double bill offered
lovers of basket ball last night and
watched the two high school teams go
down to defeat, the City team running
awas with their opponents to the tune
of 81 and 5, tue Surfing girls taking the
large end of a 10 to tally. They
played alternate halves, the boys be-
ginning the game, and for eighty min
utes the spectators witnessed as pretty
an exhibition of team and floor work
by both boys and girls, as has been up
for inspection for some time The
high school was no match for the city
team; lack of clean team work and in
ferior all-around ability on the part of
the school boys, the reverse of which
the winners excelled, those two points
winning the laurels for the fast City
team.
The local girls being loath to get in
to the game were handily defeated,
their opponents being seemingly an
xious to mix at all times, this feature
coupled with team and floor work spell
ling victory for Surfing.

Hear Prof. Sims lecture this Friday
evening on Education for Efficiency"
Curtains have been placed in the new
building.
Henry Olson is spending his spare
time doing High School work. Very
commendable idea.
Resolved, That Women should have
an equal right with man to vote.
The above was the subject of very
spirited debate held last Friday after
noon.
H. Hemenway, D. Richardson and
Hazel Russell believe with all sincerity
that women is not only the equal but
the peer of man but somehow were I'M
able to convince even feminine jury
that this was really the case.
The Negative consisting of John
Dickinson, Edw. Reavey and Claude
Carter quoted statistics and piled
proofs which apparently was the reason
why we heard to decision in their
favor.
Miss Miller, Miss Guest and Mrs. M.
J. Dickinson were the Judges.
Owing to the limited time the rebuff
tails and critics report had to be short
ened.
Miss Bradley sang very pretty solo
which was very much appreciated.

BASKET BALL
II NEWS II:
LOCAL BOYS DEFEAT CILLETT

In fast game last Friday evening
the City Basket Ball team defeated
the Gillett team at Gillett by the score
of go.
The game was played in the Pail Co.
warehouse, the inside of which had
never been finished, and in consequence
the stupding was not conducive enough
for the boys to play their usual fast
game. The lighting of the building was
another source OF great annoyance to
our boys as they Were so dim that 1T
made swift and accurate passing OF the
ball an impossibility.
But oustide these two features tie
game was a clean specimen of the nat
ional sport, the boys being accorded the
best of treatment by the Gillett spec
tators and players.
Results: Wabeno: Field Baskets;
Halsted /, Stewart 2. Free throws;
Du Brueq 3.
Gillett: Field Baskets; W.
Baldwin 2; Free throws; L. BALDWIN

A PROCLAMATION.
By the President of the I'm ted States of
America.


Whereas by the Act of Congress ap-
proved July2, 1909, the Thirteenth
Decennial Census of the United States
is to be taken, beginning on the fif-
teenth day of April, nineteen hundred
and ten; and
Whereas correct enumeration of
the population every ten years is re-
quired by the Constitution of the Unit
ed States for the purpose of determin-
ing the representation of the several
States in the House of Representatives;
and
| Whereas it is of the utmost impor-
lance to the interests of all the people
of the United States that this census
should be complete and accurate re-
port of the population and resources of
the country:
Now therefore, |, WILLIAM HOWARD
Tact, President of the United States
of America, do hereby declare and
make known that, under the act afore-
said, it is the duty of every person to
answer all questions on the census
schedules applying to him and the fam
lily to which he belongs, and to the
farm occupied by him or his family,
and that any adult refusing to do so is
subject to penalty.
The sole purpose of the census is to
secure general statistical information
regarding the population and resources
of the country, and replies are required
from individuals only in order to per-
nit the compilation of such general
statistics. The census has nothing to
do with taxation, with army or jury
service, with the compulsion of school
attendance with the regulation of i'm
migration, or with the enforcement of
any national, state, or local law or or
dinance, nor can any person be harmed
in any way by furnishing the informa-
ton required. There need be no fears
that any disclosure will be made re-
garding any individual person or his
affairs. For the due protection of the
rights and interests of the persons fur
nishing information every employee of
the Censts Bureau is prohibited, under
heavy penalty, from disclosing any in
formation which may thus come to his
knowledge.
| therefore earnestly urge upon all
persons to answer promptly, complete
ly and accurately all inquiries addressed
to them by the enumerators or other
employees of the Census Bureau, and
thereby to contribute their share to-
ward making this great and necessary
public undertaking success.
In Witness Whereof, have hereun-
to set my hand and caused the seal of
the United States to be affixed.
Done at the city of Washington this
fifteenth day of March, A. D. one
thousand nine hundred and ten, and of
the Independence of the United
TsEAL] States of America the one hun
dred and thirty-fourth.

CLAIM CHARREO
BODY Of FATHER
Aged Farmland Is Burned to
Death in Shanty
Fire.

The authorities are searching irving
of Frederick Schumacher, a 60-year-old
farmland who was burned to death
yesterday in the shanty where he slept
on the jackson farm at 1874 Clinton
place.
1t vas about 4 o'clock yesterday
afternoon when Schumacher was seen
to stagger into the entrance of the
Jackson farm and fall as he reached
the door of the shanty, where he slept
with the caretaker, Gottfried Hobacher.
Hobachert got the man to- his feet
and learned>he was sick and not drunk,
SO he put him to bed In the shanty.
An hour later he saw smoke issuing
from the crevices of the shanty doors
and windows, and rushing to the spot
found the whole interior of the place
ablaze.
Fights Flames Alone.
Hobacher burst inside and began
fiinging heaps of snow blindly on the
flame. He succeeded In putting out the
fire after half an hours hard work,
but when he went in to see the damage
that had been done he found the body
of Schumacher lying across the bed
~lifeless and horribly burned from head
to feet.
County Physician William H. Nc
Kenzie viewed the body and then sent
1t to Holes morgue to await a claim
ant. Though Schumacher had worked
in the vicinity for twenty years he was
practically a recluse and had few, IL
any, friends. Even the residence Of
his son is not exactly known.
