INSTITUTE NIGHT
A FEATURE OF

Newark Church League Is Plan
ming to Have the Biggest Spe'
cial Night of the Competition.
MAY Be Two Church League

BY BERT DODGE.

.TNsTITUTE NIGHT" is to be one
of the features of the SIAN
headpin bowling on
the Iroquois alleys. William u. Ooon-
nell is making the arrangements
While the preparation has not pro
crossed far enough to admit OF setting
a date it is planned to have a Dig
affair.
The Newark Church League, accord
ing to Edmund NJ. Courier, is gong 10
have the biggest special affair OF the
whole tournament. He dropped IN last
night to say that he proposed to nave
anywhere from thirteen to twenty
teams in line, and that he might need
two nights in order to give all ms
bows a chance. If there are TWO
Church League nights a record VIII
be established in the STAR eadpln
tournament, though it is believed there
are several organizations which VIII
REQUIRE two nights during the tourna-
ment in order to give all their ooWiers
a chance. =,
Some of the late entries are: Mork

The schedule for the tournament as
already prepared and which is pub
lished in the morning issue of the
STAR today, provides for competition
up to and including Friday night, De-
cember %. The list of dates will De
added to shortly, and those teams
which have entered since the first
schedule was made out will be carded
as well as can be done, in h order in
which they enter.
Attention will be paid to the dates
that the bowlers wish avoided, but
those that enter should remember that
the bowling in the STAR headpin
tournament is to be done on Monday,
Wednesday and Friday night of each
week. Some bowlers have mentioned
these nights as the ones which they
wish avoided, which, of course, is
manifestly impossible.
1t is purposed to have ten teams roll,
as a rule, each tournament night, but
it may be found necessary to increase
this number. If changes are made or
If it should be deemed advisable TO
bowl oftener each week the necessary
notice will be given. Each captain
will also receive notice by postal card
in ample time, so that he will have an
opportunity to bowl on the date TO
which his team is assigned.

Aids DISTRICT
IS REPUBLICAN
Prof. Ralph w. Thomas Succeeds Re-
pudiated Senator, But Democrats
Claim Heavy Gains.
(By Associated PreSS.)

Utica, N. Y, April 30-Prof. Ralph
w. Thomas, of Hamilton, Republican
and instructor in oratory in Colgate
University, was yesterday elected
senator of the Thirty-seventh senatori-
al district to succeed lothian P. Aids,
resigned. Prof. Thomas majority
over the Democratic nominee, Edward
L. Nash, of Norwich, was 2,OS2.
The interest in the affair, peculiarly,
was not marked in the rural districts,
the farmers preferring to stay at
home and give attention to agriculture.
The vote was light, little better than
so per cent being recorded.
The Democratic leaders claim a
victory achieved even though their
candidate was not elected. They in
dictate that they have made great
gains.
Prof. Thomas, the successful candi-
date, said last evening:
"One cause of my victory was the
resentment felt by the voters of the
attack made upon me by New York
newspapers. There was no issue in
the campaign that they could raise
there was nothing in my record of life
heretofore they could attack, and they
resorted to a campaign of calumny

all over this district are indignant and

The committee appointed by Mr.. H.

meeting held at the court house last
Tuesday night, for the purpose of 60
ing before the county board of super
visors at its next meeting, to be held
on Monday, and present to that body
the matter of issuing bonds to secure
the location of the state normal in
Hattiesburg, will meet in the directors
room of the Citizens Bank on Monday
morning at 10 O'Clock, when the ques-
ton will be discussed and a
plan formulated to present the mat
ter to the board of supervisors in the
most convincing manner possible.
1t is very necessary that all mem

The committee is large one, but
it is hoped that no one will remain
away from the meeting because of
this fact. 1t is desired that every
member attend, and that they go in
a body before the supervisors.
Some members of the board have
already expressed themselves as be-
ing rather favorably impressed
with the idea of locating the
normal in Hattiesburg, and it is be-
lieved if the supervisors are shown
that the people of the county want the
institution, they will not hesitate to
float the bonds.
The attitude of the city council on
the proposition is already known, and
there appears to be no doubt of their
taking favorable action at their next
meeting, which will be held on Tues
day night. When the matter was

once decided to give them a rousing
reception this afternoon and it was
suggested that we get the band and
make such ither preparatiins as were
necessary. | at once made a canvass
among the business men and in short
time raised $500, to be used for the
