disfenowshipped because they had slept
on the deck of the vessel. Sanford said
they were nnfaithful ana when they ac-
knowledged that they had been sleeping

fact that the people on board We're dis
pleasing to God. Considerable time was

In May, 1910 and ended on Oct 81 last
in Portland harbor. During those II
months Sanford and So of his faithful
followers cruised along the shores of
three continents and offered up prayers
for the soul salvation of the people Of
those countries, the voyage taking them
over 1000 miles of turbulent seas and
bringing them into touch with the untu-
tored savage. The purpose was entirely
in the religious interests of the various
countries visited as explained by the
leader, who is recognized by his people
as the modern Elijah of the Bible.
In a narrative of his voyages given
The Associated Press soon after his re-
turn, Mr. Sanford divided them into
five groups. The first occupied the Pc
Rod from June until November, 1910, and
took them from Cape Hatteras to Belle
island. north of Newfoundland. The
second voyage was begun in December
and lasted until February, 1911 during
which they left the shores of their ma
tive country and cruised across tenn
pestuous seas to the coast of Africa.

AGood Team.

Having had some experience in the
game by playing on our team about
fifteen years, and other teams at odd
times, feel that am to some extent
able to judge the Strength of a ball
team by the players-as individuals,
also as a team. have seen our Train
ing School team play few games this
season, and for several seasons past,
and want to compliment them by say
ing they are as good, or better, than
they have ever been-play good, honor
able, clean ball, and should have great
deal more encouragement from the peo-
pie than they are given. The last two
games they played, Fulton at Union City
and Union City at Fulton, both were
exceptionally good games, Union City
winning the first game by score of
to 0 and losing at Fulton by score Of
4 to 8. The first game was as nice an
exhibition OF ball as one usually sees
anywhere. The Fulton team is com
posed of professional men, members OF
a league of several Tennessee, Kentucky
and Illinois towns. The Union City
Training School team is composed OF
school boys of the same school. Some
are kids. All show manly training
by somebody, the teachers am sure.
The game at Fulton was a good one
which would have been won by Union
Training School but for an error or two
and all make them sometimes. 1t was
what ball boys call hard luck game.
Things go wrong at the wrong time
the game. The manager Of
the Fulton club was very disagreeable
with his kicks from start to finish. /
told him if any man from Union City
was guilty of such conduct, would have
him arrested and tried for pure mean
ness.
Some of the Fulton players were in
clined to play almost any kind of game
to win. Our boys played clean, With
out prejudice, ours is the strongest team
Of the two. Let's all go see them play
at Training School Park,
