NEW YORK, June l7-'Mell bring

declaration of poioists here today.
and plans for meetings were made
whereby America will have chance
20 win back the Westchester Cup
captured by England in two straight
games Praise for the work of the
American team was freely given, but
noloists from the west, declared
openly that means would be sought
whereby in future contests the pick
of all America would oppose the
British, not only the selections from
the Meadowbrook Club.
Criticisms of the fact that the On
wentsia Club. Of Chicago, and the
Burlingame Club, of California, We're
not considered in making up the
American team were general Many
western poloists believe that at least
two men could have come from the
west who would have given more
strength tc the American team and
before the Britishers sail home, it
was said an attempted reconstruction
of American polo would be on the
way.
Beaten by q better team" was the
verdict of all poloists, and observers
OF The Mcadowbrook games.
II was stated unofiicially, but au.
thoritatiyely that the receipts Of the
polo association for the two games
at MeadowbroolS would total not less
than s200QO0 Expenses OF the games
il was declared would run TO about
$4,000 leaving the comfortable ball
ance OF $l50.000 for the work of the
clubs Va preparation for another
struggle with the British.
Friends Of Lord Wimborne, who
backed the British team with his
money. said today he was $4,000 in
pocket as a result of the games. He
was said to have bet $4,000 against
$4,000 on the opening game and
$4,000 against $4,000 yesterday.
Today. the British players weer be-
ing lavishly entertained in the coun-
try homes OF Americans on Long
Island No announcement was made
as to when Lord Wimborne and the
Westchester Cup would leave for
England.
IL was the desperate style OF their
play and the lack OF perfect team
work that finally wrought the down
fall of the Americans, for they lost
IN penalties 2 IA points out of a
gross 9, while the English We're
penalized but / point retaining Of
their 8 goals.

Brave Engineer Stops Fast Train
to Weep. Entire Crew Shed Tears

y fast east bound Southern railway
freight train struck II COW near Cahaba

a scrub into a Jersey. The mighty
train thundered onward. not even
cnecking speed on the return trip the
tender hearted engineer, looking out of
his cab window, saw a little calf lying
by the side of the dead mother where
1t had kept vigil for three days, and
was SO impressed that he brought the
train to stand still, descended from
the mighty mogul. fondled the baby
calf, all the while weeping bitterly.
The conductor, flagman and brakeman
all came forward and were likewise
saddened. Now this train crew tender
ly lifted the little orphan into the ca
boose and found 1t a good home with
a kind farmer few miles further down
the road. 1t is said that il now takes a
large size rope to tie that calf.
There are many ways in which hard
hearts may be softened A more pit
liable sight was never witnessed than
a sorrowing incident that came to light

ardent prohibitionist who is not sup

captain White. as has been announced,
Will be a candidate for the Senate to
fill the unexpired term of Senator John
ston in the event that f. p. Glass is not
seated and the governor calls a special
election for the short term. Yester-
day the report became generally circu-
lated that DR. w. B. Crumpton, presi-
dent OF the Anti-Saloon league, would
offer, and that this course was decided
upon at meeting Sunday in which r.
+. Hobson was present. Confirmation of
this report was impossible.
Captain White has always been pro-
hibtionist, but is not supporting Cap
tain Hobson. DR.. Crumpton has stated
that although at one time he thought it
unwise for the Anti-Saloon league to in
dorse senatorial candidate. that he
would abide by the vote of the majority
and support Mr.. Hobson. Were the race
left to these gentlemen, it is generally
believed that DIR. Crumpton would win
or lose with Mr. Hobson, especially if
1t is true that he is being groomed by the

was made extremely happy, while the
other poor sister. who had previously
bought elsewhere, went into Mysteries
and cried like her heart would break
to think that she had missed such op-
portunities.
Both rich and poor should exert every
effort to find where the best values
may be had before making purchases.
1t stands to reason that w. O. Broyles
can offer inducements that others can
Ill afford to. He has cheaper rent. a
fireproof building, no insurance, turns
his stock over every sixty days. which
means less taxes, less license Every
thing being modern, furniture can be
handled 20 per cent cheaper. and be-
cause buying In large quantities, 10
shrewd and experienced buyer 10 per
cent additional is saved So IL can be
readily seen that w. o. Broyles can
sell 40 per cent lower than other
dealers.
The big February sale is now on,
where the public may reap the benefits
of w o. Broyles' labors In pulling down
prices and reducing the cost of living.
Pay the big store a visit. meet the most
polite clerks In town. who take genuine
pleasure and pride In showing all
through the big building and stock.
SO don't forget the big furniture store
where prices are right and clerks po-
