GOES OVER TO SATURDAY.
Republican Democrat Ball Game
Necessarily Postponed.

The base ball game between the repub-
licans and democrats Of the House for
the benefit of the Fairgrounds and Boy
Scouts of the District Of Columbia. which
was to have been played yesterday after
noon, has been postponed until next Sat
urday afternoon at o'clock, at American
League Park.
The solons were forced to yield yester-
day to Jupiter Pluvius. Owing to the
fact that the republican convention in
Chicago is to open Tuesday and to the
fact also that many OF the republican men,
bers OF the House are proposing to Tilt
to that metropolis today or tomorrow, it
was impossible to set the game for an
earlier date than next Saturday.

SCOUTS SEEK FUNDS
Plan to Raise Cash on "Tag
Day." Tuesday, June rs.
PRESIDENT LENDS HIS AID
Endorses Movement in Letter-Part
Of Money to Be Used for
Encampment.

Tag day for the Boy Scouts OF the
District branch of the national organi-
cation has been set for Tuesday, June
25.
The Boy Scout movement Endorsed
by many Of the most prominent men
of the country. including President
Taft. is growing steadily and has a
host Of friends in Washington, who, 1t
is expected, will contribute gladly to
the cause on Tag day. The officers of
the local council say that 1t is impera-
tive that money be raised to help carry
on the work of the organization here.
Thousands OF boys have become inter-
ested in the Boy Scout movement in
Washington, and they are reaping the
benefits which the organization offers
them.
Showing his appreciation Of the work
which the Boy Scouts OF America are
doing, President Taft has addressed
the following letter to Arthur c.
Moses. who is head Of the organization
in this city.
Glad to Give Support.
II am glad to give my sympathy and
support to the Boy Scout movement. the
object of which. as 1 understand it is
to take charge Of that electric fluid that
we call the spirit of the boy between
twelve and eighteen, and send 1t through
the right channels. We have all been
boys-at least those of us who have not
been boys have missed life-and under
stand the possibilities of improvement on
the one hand, and of self-destruct.on on
the other, which that effervescence OF the
spirit of boyhood offers.
ITO seize upon those things which the
romantic period Of boyhOOd develops, or
deems important, Of course, is the genius
of the movement.
Every boy, whether he is brought up
on the brick pavement Of the city. and
never sees anything green. or whether
he lives in the country, yearns some
times to go into camp, even II he has
to put his tent in the backyard and tie
it against the fence.
II was glad to see the Boy Scouts Of
America when they visited the White
House recently. / sincerely hope that
your movement will improve as rapidly
in the years to come as it has in the
past year-and l congratulate you on the
success of the effort already made"
The local council has decided that the
quickest and least burdensome way of
raising the funds which are so sorely
needed for the boys here Is through a
Tag day" This method promises a
greater return to the organization with
the smallest possible tax on the individual
than any other plan for raising funds, it
is said

forced to use his club freely before he
managed to subdue the man. With blood

was placed in the patrol wagon, and

The arrest caused considerable excite

Trouble outsrowth Of Refusal Of Coun-
ell 70 Fix Saloon License at High
Fiours-Suits Threatened for Alleged
illegal Sales Of Supplies to the Town
by Counelmsn.
,ccial to Times-Republican
by Councilman.


Waverly, Feb. s.-Three Of the five
councilmen at Sumner have resigned
following threatened suit to recover
amounts paid to them for supplies sold
the town. 1t is not charged that there
was any fraud in their transactions,
but under the decisions of the supreme
court it is claimed that they are civilly
liable to suit for recovery Of such
amounts.
The custom is said to be quite preva-
lent in the towns and cities of the
state, but is not sanctioned by law.
The resigning officers are business men
of exceptionally high standing for in
tegrity. It is very probable that suits
will be instituted for recovery Of sums
paid.
At present, however, the town Is
without a council or prospect Of a
quorum, and unless the question or
quorum is ignored. no business can be
done until the regular town election.
The present fight originated in the OBJ
iections raised against the council on
account of their having fixed the sa-
loon license at $500 instead of high
er amount of $7,40s, which was offered
by one dealer. The council had refused
to name the last figure. because they
deemed it too high for saloon II oper-
ated in accordance with law. and fixed
the amount at a somewhat higher fig
ure than that offered by any other APP
pllcant Only two Iowa towns having
one saloon receive a higher license
than Sumner. but the councilmen have
been confr onted with bitter accusations
that they deliberately gave away $2.SoS.
Of the town money. by not accepting
the higher offer, and out Of the feeling
engendered their designations ulti-
mately grew.
