better team against the high.

The high school squad, eighteen
in number, accompanied by about
twenty fans, reached the band box
grounds at Hudson at o'clock, to
find Galahad already there. Gala
had won the toss and chose the
south goal with the wind behind
them. Sherburne kicked off, and
Galahad brought the ball back 20
yards. Two attempts at the line
were unsuccessful and Galahad
punted to Sherburne, who brought
the ball back 20 yards. 1t was
River Falls ball, and on the first
play Gleason was called through
tackle for a 25-yard run and touch
down. Sherburne kicked the goal
and the score was 6 to in favor of
the high in two minutes. Again
high kicked off, and the game
worked back and forth across the
ield, fast and furious, high using
only the running game, while Gala
had resorted to frequent forward
passes. The first quarter ended
without further scoring.
In the second quarter Beebe took
loves place at left guard, while
Bennett went in at full, Sherburne
going to quarter in place of En-
sign. AS in the first quarter, the
ball travelled rapidly back and
forth, now threatening one goal and
now the other, until, with only Is
seconds left. Sherburne got away
on a forward pass from Bennett and
ran 40 yards to touchdown, kick
ing the goal, making the score IL
to 0.
In the second half Kuehn1 re-
placed Beebe at left guard. Once
more high kicked off, held Galahad,
and, with rush, went up the field
and over for a touchdown, Buckley
carrying the ball over, Sherburne
kicking the goal, and the score was
Is to 0. Then Galahad was mad,
and the way they went after the
game was nothing slow. Crisis
crosses, forward passes and trick
plays followed each other in rapid
succession, and at last a forward
pass got away and they went over
for touchdown, failing the goal,
and the score was Is to S. En-
couraged by this, they went after
another, and got it, and the score
was Is to 10, and the third quarter
was up. Smith replaced Taylor at
right end, Dawson went in at right
guard in place of Winton, and Sc
version took Kuehnls place at left
guard. Galahad started with a
rush, but Dawson broke through
and spoiled their forward pass and
the rush was off. Sylvester took
Phillips place at right half. The
rest of the game was hard fought,
high slowly getting the better of it,
until Fessenbecker broke through
for 50-yard run to the line for a
touchdown. Sherburne missed
goal, and the final score was % to
10 in favor of high, in one of the
best games ever played between
the schools. The game was new
football, open and fast all the way,
and the best team won. The fol-
lowing made up highs team: Hig-
gins, c.; Winton and Dawson, r. e;
Lowe, Beebe, Kuehnl and Severson,
|. g.; Gleason, r. t.; Buckley, |. t.;
Taylor and Smith, r. e.; Maier, l. e.,
Phillips and Sylvester, r. h.; En-
sign and Sherburne, a.; Fessen-
becker, |. b.; Sherburne and Ben
nett, f,
The local fans will have the op-
portunity of witnessing the highs
in action on their own grounds
next Saturday, Saltwater being the
intended victim. The game will
start at one o'clock to allow the Wis
itors to catch the train.

gentleman from Prentiss. had
fired his pistol and killed the wom-
an, his Hazel. /"
The court held that the testimony
was not sufficient, and the case was
dismissed.
Under the affidavit the deadly
weapon must have been exhibited
in the presence of three or more
persons, and there were but two
present, and the testimony did not
show that the Rev. White had the
concealed weapon on his person.
While these cases, charging car
rying of concealed weapons, and
exhibiting deadly weapon. have
no connection with other cases in
which Rev. w. A. White, of Prem
tiss, member of the lower house is
the Mississippi Legislature. Of
directly interested. there is no
doubt that the present cause grew
out of the others.
The Monday Morning Star, edit
ed by B. w. Wade. of this city,
charged a few weeks ago that Rev.
White had told Representative
Adams, of Tishomingo. he had been
paid 81, 200 for his vote for United
States senator, and that he (Adams)
could get the same ifhe would vote
right. This charge of bribery was
resented by White. and Wade was
arrested on the charge Of criminal
libel and carried to Bonneville, IN
the northeastern part Of the State.
for trial. However. that case has
been postponed until the 10Th of
July on account of the absence Of
some of Waide's witnesses. The
result of that trial Of White will
depend very largely on what Rep
resentative Adams testifies to.
In the meantime Rev. Whites
record has been hunted up at this
end of the line, and it is found
that he was arrested by two police
men on the night of April 16, at
1870, and spent the balance of the
night in the city JAIL The charge
against him was drunk and dis
orderly. and he WIS released by
Chief Of Police Allen next morning
without trial.
The police had gone to the scene
on telephone call from the keeper
of house in the redlight district.
Arriving at the house from which
the call was sent into police head
quarters, the officers found that
White had gone across the street
and was then engaged trying to-
kick down the door Of d house
known as Helen Thompson's place.
They found him thus engaged and
arrested him. He claimed exemp-
tion from arrest on the ground that
he was a member of the Legisla-
ture and not subject to arrest. The
officers told him he was drunk, and
that they did not know member
Of the Legislature from other folks
when in that condition, whereupon
they hustled him into the black
maria and landed him in jail for
the night.
These are facts as shown by the
police record and as confirmed by
the police. Mr.. White has never
denied any OF these charges. save.
that made by the Monday Morning
Star as to the bribery matter and
the public will await anxiousIy the
result Of that trial at Bonneville on
the 10Th of July.

State Senator Theo. G. Bilbo adj
dressed big picnic crowd at Topi-
saw church about ten miles east of
this place, yesterday afternoon.
The crowd was made up mostly Of
farmers and their families from
Lincoln, Pike and Lawrence coun-
ties.
There were some new features In
this speech. Senator Bilbo dis
claimed being a candidate himself
for any Office Or the representative
of Vardaman or any other candi-
date for the United State Senate,
but declared that he wanted TO cam
vass the state and show to the
people the false charges which had
been circulated brodcast about him-
self, to put the people on notice
about official graft and encroach-
ment on their rights by corporate
greed, such as he knew during his
brief experience as a legislator was
being practiced. He again seyere-

This. with what / have already

should you wonder if some young
laymen went astray?"
Senator BiIbo's speech was
broken into in the middle by a
heavy downpour Of rain which
forced the crowd to take refuge in
the church and schooIhouse. As
neither building was sufficient to
accommodate the crowd. he was
importuned to return to the stand,
in the grove while the rain was
still slowly descending. to finish his
speech. So eagerly did the crowd
hang on to his every sentence that
men stood in the rain with hoisted
umbrellas and others with no COW
erlng at all, for nearly an hour,
while prominent citizen of the
community stood BY the speaker
and sheltered him while he spoke,
with a big umbrella. He was fre-
quently interrupted by outbursts of
applause.
Earlier during the day an elo-
quent address on 'Woodcraft'
was delivered BY H. G. Magee, of
Monticello. Miss.
The picnic was given BY the
Woodman camp and the Topisaw

provided by these orders were
