Fl. S. Basket Ball.

Nezperce is certainly one athletic
town. So thought the q. H. S. boys
when they dropped the game of bas-
ket ball to the Nezperce boys last
Friday night.
The high school boys went up
against the handicap Of less height,
weight and experience and that tells
the. story of the defeat. The odds
were too great for a grme fight to
overcome.
Nezperce is small town, but they
are athletically inclined, and for
several years prior to the high school
days had squad Of youthful athletes
rounding into form. The athletics
are certain Of support, as the entire
town on any occasion backs its school
to win any enterprise and turns out
to see the winning.
The Grangeville boys, however,
are not quitting with the defeat, and
have invited the Nezperce team to
another mix-up in Grangeville Friday
night of this week. The Cottonwood
team will come to Grangeville on
Saturday night for a battle with the
local lads. The Nezperce game will
be the classiest exhibition of basket
ball Grangeville has ever witnessed.
Any basket ball fan who misses it
will be loser.
Tickets will be sold at forty cents
for the two games or twenty-five for
one.
Come out. The entire high school
will be there.

LOTTERY TICLETS
SWELL THE MAILS
Periodical Batch Drifting Through
the Post-office from
Germany.

The authorities at the Washington
post-offiee have encountered the peri
odical batch OF lottery circulars, which
from time to time drift through the
mails from German lotteries, and thou
sands Of copies have been held up as
violations of the international laws re-
garding the use of the mails.
Many OF the Illicit circulars have sue
cessfully evaded the vigilance of the
postal authorities and 1t is suspected
that a large sum of money has been
sent from Washington to the Vaterland
to swell the Golfers of the promoters
of the lottery. The post-office is doing
its utmost to stop the traffic.
The tickets or chances" range in
price from $50 for a full first-class ticket
TO Sj0 for one-quarter seventh-class
ticket. The first prize is $25O,OCO.
The circular alluringly states that
there are 100000 tickets. 46,OO2 prizes, s
bonuses, and 10000 free tickets, and that
nearly every second ticket is bound to
win" A picture showing a happy FAM
lily gathered around a table loaded with
bank notes and entitled THE First
Prize invites patronage by suggestion
These circulars commonly emanate
from Hamburg, Germany, and in many
of them "P. Lindvig, banker Hamburg
81, Eppendorferbaum 1S." seems to be
the leading spirit.

Georgetown Junior
Reads Twenty-four
Books of Had

The feat OF taking examination OF
the entire twenty-four books of Homer''
Had. comprising B5.693 lines, was accom-
plished yesterday by Thomas Healy, q
Junior Of Georgetown College. The ex,
amining board consisted OF three profes-
sors, including Rev. Raphael V. O;Con'
nell. S. j., of Gonzaga College, New
York -a
The ease with which Mr.. Heaiy han.
died his subject, giving perfect trans.
lations, successfully answering all objec-
tions, and explaining neurological ref.
erences, showed a mastery Of the Greek
poet which is seldom seen. The feat IL
considered the more remarkable, as the
young man has been studying Greek
only two years.
In the absence of the president. Rev.
Dr. Douarty. S. j., vice president Of the
college. congratulated the young man
on his accomplishment in behalf OF the
faculty and students, and expressed the
hope that the work done by Mr.. Healy
would act as an incentive to similar
performances In the future.
Thomas Healy is the son of John Paul
Healy Of this city.

In more ways than one Man and Su-
perman" has proved a landmark among
English comedies OF to-day.
Not only is it revolutionary in its idea $
and the mode Of presenting them, but its
popularity has proved that the average
theaterGOer only can understand a play
Of pure Wit, but that this same avera ge
theatergOer likes it. And he not only
approves of it, but he pays his good
money at the box Office to see such a
play time and again. On the whole.
Man and Supcrman" has been the big
gest money-making comedy that any
theatrical manager has produced for
years.
Robert Ioraine's delightful performance
of John Tanner. and the novelty OF the
plot is largely responsible for the play $
strong appeal Here is a hero who is
not incoming over some peaches and
cream heroine. Indeed. il is his first role
in life not TO get married. When. in the
first act. he instictively senses the black
shadow OF matrimony falling across his
path. he proceeds to make tracks From
London he fees to Surrey. from Surrey
to Spain. and instead OF the william. II
is the heroine who still pursues him.
Even in the last act. when he is dis
covered with the heroine in his arms.
he still protests that he is an unhappy
man. Love. the life force" as he styles
1t. is stroGer than he. 1t has conquered
him. But he wants his friends TO under
stand that he has no delusions about be
ing the happiest man m the world" He
asserts that he and his sweetheart have
just foreswOrn happiness, that they have
pledged themselves to a lifetime Of re-
spOnsibilities.

SWISS WOMAN HERE
FIGHTING AGAINST
USE OF ABSINTHE

Nine. Comhe, Swiss aUthorcss, who is
touring the world carrying on a cam
paign against the use of absfnthe, is ex-
pected in Washington to-day, and during
her stay will make an address on the
absinthe habit and the fight against the
drug made in Switzerland. in which she
herself took an active part.
The fight in Switzerland was carried
on for years by Nine. Combe through
circular letters and pamphlets before the
matter was brought TO referendum OF
the people. In this referendum I6S OOC
votes against the manufacture and sale
OF the drug were cast. when only 10000
were needed to get that result. There
is now a law in this country against the
importation or manufacture of absinthe
but no law against the sale Of the liUIor.
