BASKET BALL
Interesting Game between High
School and Co. A.
n. u. H. S.
Co a

90. A
The basketball team of Co. A, End.
Reg, NJ. N, G., made it's initial APP
pearance last Wednesday night when
the local high school boys defeated
them by score of So to I. Such a
defeat was expected by almost every
one for it was the first game for sever
al of the military boys. The soldiers
showed flashes of good teamwork,
making clever passes, but they could
not locate the basket. Time after
time they would work the ball towards
their goal by short, quick passes only
to miss the attempt for the basket.
Dirks, at guard, and captain Berg, at
forward, were the best men on the
team, for they were the players who
started most of the company's team
work and they also intercepted many
of the high school boys passes. Con-
sidering what kind of player HUM
is, Dirks did exceedingly we'll against
him. HUM often found it easy to
dodge Dirks but he was followed so
closely that he was always compelled
to shoot quickly. Berg is wonderfully
fast on his feet and good in passing,
but he could not shoot baskets.
"Cyrus" guarded him so closely that
his attempts for goals were hurried
and besides luck broke badly for him.
Many times he tossed the ball for a
seemingly sure basket only to have it
roll around the rim and drop out.
When he gets the knack of shooting
accurately as we'll as quickly he will
be good forward. With more ex-
perience and practice the rest Of the
team should improve steadily.
Fritz Groebner was back in the
game after an absence Of four weeks
and played a good game, tossing the
ball into the net seven times. Backer
shot baskets in his old time form and
HUM succeeded in getting several
pretty ones. Groebner and Anthony
had comparatively easy times in pre-
venting their men from getting bas-
kets. The lineup:

The Gearhard Lecture

The lecture by Col. Gearhard, de-
livered at Turner Theatre last Tues
day night on the subject The Coming
Man." was by all odds the Weightiest
and most meritorious number of this
seasons lecture course. Here was,
indeed, a discourse to our likeiDg.
Perhaps we are somewhat inclined to
be serious and too ready to see
righteousness in things that have not
a preponderance of the serious: how
ever, we cannot but pronounce this
last number the greatest intellectual
treat that it has been our good fortune
to receivess..for some time. What a
grandeur Of thought, what deepth of
soul, what broadness OF mind and
how beautiful the expressions-wh hat
convincing, incontrovertible and soul
stirring arguments. A lecture replete
with fetching aphorisms and bristling
with gem thoughts. W ould that every
young man Of our city had been
present to have had the powerful
words Of this eloquent man burned
indelibly into his mind and heart.
Would that such COUNSEL, such admO-
milton, such exhortation could be
handed out to our youth from every
pulpit and lecture room. Surely such
lectures could not but have their bene-
fainrt 6tfn0% anti W
in due time.
A ball will be held in Essig j AN.
Doth with music furnished by the we'll
known Town Home Band. Lunch will
be served in the usual manner and a
good time promised for all those who
attend.

GLIDING grandstand 100000: other re-
sources S358.29. The association re-
ceived subsidy from state, county
and city to the amount of 900 for
erecting new exposition building
Although there is a deficit in last
years balance, it can be said that the
society is in splendid condition for
this years fair, provided the patron
age of the public will be liberal one

NEW YORK POLITICS.

a The democratic state campaign IN
New York reached flood tide last night
at meeting in Carnegie Hall, where
John A. Dix, the nominee for governor,
made his first public address in the
city.
The meeting also served as the occa,
sion for Mayor Gaynor's long expected
formal announcement OF his support
for the ticket. The mayors voice still
being weak, this came in the form OF a
letter to the chairman Of the meeting.
The rally was held under the auspices
OF the Independent Business Mems
I.esgue, and Herman Ridder, president
OF that organization, presided. There
were speeches also by Martin ii. Glynn,
Of Albany, former state comptroller; by
DR.. Melancthon w. Stryker, president
OF Hamilton College, who recently an
nounced that, al hough a republican,
be would support Dix, and by Herbert
P. Bissell, Of Buffalo.
Mr.. Dix devoted the greater part Of a
5000. word speech to denunclntlon OF
Theodore Roosevelt. He charged the
former president with wiilful falsehood
in repeating the accusation for which
Mr.. Dix in his Buffalo speech de-
manded an apology.
He declared that Colonel Roosevelt,
because OF what he deems to be his
political necessity Of tho hour, struck
hands and made political alliance"
with William r. Hearst, whom four
years ago Roosevelt had publicly
branded as responsible for the assassin IS
bullet which made him president. "
Leaving the subject Of Roosevelt the
candidate returned to charges OF repub-
lican extravaganza. He promised that
democratic administration would re-
duce taxation and once more make 1t
possible for the average man" to save
enough for a rainy day.

THE VAN LEW HOUSE.

The Van Lew house, one OF the show
places in Richmond for tourists,
relic OF colonial times, is soon to dis
appear. The house sits in the center
OF large block, surrounded by trees
OF many kinds, the growth Ola century
The city is to purchase the property
and build thereon a modern public
school.
The house has a history. During
the civil war Miss Elizabeth Van Lew
who had inherited the place from her
father, acted as a spy for the federal
government, and through her an unin-
torrupted communication was main
tanned with the forces which were
operating around Richmond. 1t was
in this house that Captain Streighi
and a score OF others, confined in old
Libby prison, were secretcd after they
had tunneled out OF the prison. They
we're given medical treatment and food
by Miss Van Lew, and in the dead oil
night they we're conducted to the fed
eral army lines and later returned to
their homes. Miss Van Lew went in
and out among the soldiers and was
never thought 10 be an agent OF the
besieging army.
The house was built considerably
more than a hundred years ago and is
an imposing edifice, standing three
stories. Il was in the garrett tfthe hour
that the prisoners we're hidden in a
secret chamber, the ent ance being Il
panel in the wall, which was white
washed and completely hidden from
view.
After the war Gen. Grant named
Miss Van Lew as postmaster, and she
served three terms. She died some ten
years ego and is buried in shockoC

WHAT THE KILLING GAME COSTS

England has many thousand hui
man beings who are in chronic state
OF restitution and yet the annual eS-
penditure Of the English government
for naval and military purposes is
70, 900. 900 pounds, or $3.50, 900, OO0, "
remarked Mr.. Francis Wynne, OF Lon
don, at the Stafford.
The civilized world has yearly
bill reaching the gigantic total OF 5OO,-
900, 900 pounds, or 81. 500, 600, 900, all
of which is incurred in preparations
for human slaughter Is it worth all
these millions, wrung from the taxa
ton OF hard working, sorely distressed
beings, TO see which nation shall be
able to float the greatest number OF bat
tleships and put into the field the most
numerous regiments2 The inhumanity
and the waste which 60 with this dis
bursemcnt for ornaments are sad
commentary on our boosted civilization.
The treasure which England alone
spends would give an additional dollar
per week to every wage Garner in the
United Kingdom. 1t would reduce our
vast army OF the unemployed by many
thousands and would bring peace and
plenty to many a household that is now
the abode OF want and misery"

CONDITIONS IN PORTUGAL.

The new republic OF Portugal is
Threatened with q military leso!ution.
The Second aud Fifth regiments ycster-
day addressed a round-robin to Pro-
visional President Braga, declaring
that they were prepared for IN insur-
rection il they were not granted The

The royaIi~ts who have adhered to
the republic demand the same rewards
as the reyolutionists proper seek to
exact.
The revolutionary crew OF the cruiser
Sac Raphael, which bombared the
royal palace during the revolutionary
outbreak, has bech dismissed. The
crew of the cruiser ADMINISTER which also
fired upon the home OF King Manuel,
has refused TO leave the vessel unless
the members are guaranteed pension
Of S15 month each for life.
In order to avoid disorders it is likely
that the government will grant all OF
the demands. A secret committee rep
rcsrnting an element that is dissatisfied
with the course Of the new government
has be planning revolution for
sometime. 1t held a meeting to pro-
te.t against the leniency shown by
Braga a I'd his associates toward the
members of the old regime.
There is also trouble in the prov
inces, where the people refuse to
recognize the governments appoinices
to positions oftrust on the ground that
the new officers are incapable. Dis
order in the provinces on the occasion
OF the elections for members OF the

Prospects for settlement of strike.

New York, Nov. 3. --Prospects for n
peaceful settlement Of the drivers
strike improved today A commit.
tee consisting OF one driver and
one helper from each express company
in the city and one representative from
each company has been chosen to meet
this afternoon in an effort to outline for
proposal for submission to the gene
raj teamsters' meeting tomorrow.
Both the strikers and express COM
panies are anxious to reach an agree
ment without calling upon Mayor
Gaynor. In the event Of today's COM
mittee failing to agree on a proposal, it
is believed that the mayor would then
step in.
All the department stores, whose
drivers are on strike are in conference
with their men. Ten thousand drivers
are now out, according to Hoffman,
5000 OF whom are express wagon
drivers.
The strikers still insist that the recog-
nzing of their union must be agreed to
before there can be any discussion OF
wages or other terms.
It is estimated that the express COM
panies are losing 81 500, 900 a day by
the strike. There are 100000 unde-
Iiyered parcels and forty unloaded cars
OF express matter.

Mrs. Martin surs Court.

Newark. N. j., Nov. 3.-The pro-
ceedings begun yesterday TO determine
the sanity OF Mrs. Caroline B. Martin,
accused OF the murder OF her daughter,
Mrs. Ocey w. NJ. Shead, the East
Orange ''bathtub victim, took dra-
matte turn late yesterday afternoon,
when the aged woman jumped from her
chair to deny the statement OF a wit
ness. For few moments the court
room was in such an uproar that Judge
Ten Eyck had to halt the proceedings,
and it required the combined efforts OF
court attendants and relatives to quiet
Mrs. Martin.
Until her sudden outbreak Mrs. Mar
tin had remained an impassiye listener,
paying scant attention to tho testimony
and keeping her face hidden behind a
thick black veil. Her interruption
came when Judge Arthur A. Phlegar,
OF Bristol, Va, lifelong acquaintance,
testified he had received several letters
from Mrs. Martin and her sister, Mrs.
Mary w. Snead, jointly accused Of
causing Mrs. 0cey Snead's death. in re-
gard to retaining counsel. Mrs. Mar
tin suddenly jumped to her feet, shout
ing in n shrill voice: Il never sent
You or any one else letter"
Before the interruption Judge
Phlegar had testified to peculiaritics in
Mrs. Martin while he was acting as her
attorney. lie summarized his opinion
Of her mental condition by saying: i
have no hesitation in saying that she
had not any real comprehension OF her
situation and what NAV be her end. "
Mrs. Laura Jones, Of Christiansburg,
Va, formerly employed rs a seamstress
by Mrs Martin, likewise described
Mrs. Martins ecceutricities. Experts
will be put on the stand later to tell OF
their recent examination OF Mrs. Mar
tin. Miss Virginia Wardlaw, the third
of the three sisters originally under IN
dictment for the murder, died in the
house Of detention.
