Good, Bad and Indifferent Brands Demonstrated Yes
 terday Afternoon.
CLEGGS II, BEDELLS 2
Paint Boys Circle Diamond Short Dozen Times on Six Hits, Being As- sisted by the Even Dozen Mis-
 cues of Druggists.

h a comedy of errors yesterday afternoon the Cleggs defeated the Bedells to the tune off II to ?. The drug boys have 12 pebbles charged against them, while the painters are only charged with three. The hits were almost evenly divided, the Cleggs getting six and the drug boys five.
 | The game while draggy and slow. was interesting in spots and several fine plays were witnessed by the handful of fans, among them double by Howell, uaassisted. Twelve men stole bases, and two of the dozen were successful in having two stolen bases to their credit.
 The Bedells team was badly chip pied. several of their men being out of the city and it was necessary to borrow four men from other teams of the league to complete their line up. The Cleggs were also forced to borrow McAlexander, pitcher for the Pastimes to do the twirling. Both of their pitchers worked hard in other games during the first part of the week, and it was thought un- wise to put them in the box again for yesterdays battle.
 Moore, who was used by the Be- dells in the pitchers box, has seven strike outs to his credit and allow ed but three walks. McAleXander, the opposing slab artist, struck out three men and gave the same num- Der of passes. He was given bril- liant support by his team mates.
 The drug boys made their two runs in the fifth inning, while the Cleggs chalked up in every inning but the third making one i:l the first, second, fourth, fifth, sixth and two each in the seventh, eighth and ninth. AL though it was known that the paint boys would be victorious from the strat, it required hours and 10 minutes to decide the contest.

MRS. WILLETTS GIVES
views ON MARRIAGE
Woman Who Is Suing Husband Be-
lieves Divorces Should Be Oh
tanned Without Publicity.
LEAVES FOR VIRGINIA ESTATE

Before leaving Washington for her Vir-
ginia estate yesterday. Mrs. Marie Holmes
willetts. who is suing Samuel Willetts,
the New York clubman, for divorce, gave
some pithy maxims on marriage and di-
vorce.
1T is pitiable how many poor women,
through lack of nerve and a cowardly
fear of divorce publicity, live with scoun-
drels and unsuitable mates for years"
she said.
Marriage should be made harder. 1t
is a fault in our social structure that
young people can enter the marital state
without giving the venture sufficiently
serious consideration You can make a
mistake in the selection OF a mate just
as easily as you can enormously select
other things in life.
1T believe a woman should be enabled
to obtain a divorce easily, without public
ity and q lot-of fuss over 1t.
NO woman or man knows when fate
is going to send him into love with an
other being"
Mr.. willetts, who has been spending
the weekend in Washington consulting
with lawyers about the suit filed against
him, did not leave Washington until yes
terday afternoon for New York. 1t Is un-
derstood Mr.. willetts will return espe-
cially to direct his fight against the d.
vorce, which will be heard January q, in
Fairfax Court House.

B. c. MARSH CALLS
MANY LAWS UNJUST
Urges New System of Taxation and
Says Immigrants Are Badly
Treated.

After advancing arguments to show that
the powers had fosteEed misrule by the
Turks In Macedonia In the hope that
conditions would become SO intolerable
there that they could steal the country
from the Balkans. Benjamin C. Marsh, Of
New York, in an address at the Y. M. z.
A. last night, entitled rs the Sense of
Justice ExtinctT' turned to the injus-
tsces worked in this country.
He said that one Of the injustices work
ed in the District would be remedled by
the passage OF the eight-hour bill. ard
urged a system Of taxation that would
take the burden OF paying the taxes from
the people and place II on land owners.
Mr.. Marsh said that every death from
preventable disease in the United
States was an example Of injustice on
the part of the government. when
these diseases could be eradicated by
in hygiene and proper regu-
lation of economic conditions. He said
the immigrants to the United States
are victims of injustice.
THE Pilgrim fathers fell upon their
knees and then upon the aborigines.
while we fall upon the immigrants
with various methods of exploitation" !"
he said.
Mr.. Marsh was of ths-opinion. how
ever. that the sense OF justice Is re-
turning to the United States.

MISSIONARY-EXPLORER
TELLS ABOUT ALASKA
Archdeacon Stuck. Who Climbed
Mount Mckinley. Describes Hard
ships of Mission Workers.

The hardships of missionary work in
Alaska were described last night by
Archdeacon Stuck at ST. Marks Episco-
pal Church, and a large congregation
heard the address Of the distinguished
clergyman-eXplorer.
Archdeacon Stuck was the FIRST man
who successfully made the ascent Of
Mount Mckinley, the great Alaskan peak
that has tempted DR.. Frederick Cook
and many other mountain climbera
Archdeacon Stuck has worked In the
mission field with Bishop Rove. Of
Alaska, and said the perils Of religious
work there are greater than those Of
the so-called dangerous professions in
civilization.
He told Of the fight that is being waged
to educate the natives of Alaska, es-
pecially in hygiene. One Of the menaces
to the country and its inhabitants Is the
white plague and the education Of the
people to combat this disease Is one OF
the tasks OF the missionary.

OFFICIALS SPURN TO
REPLY TO CHARGES
Rothermel Report Another Attempt to
Create Trouble Over Seal
Island Situation.

Walter I. Lembky, formerly assistant
special agent of the government at the
Pribiloff Seal Islands. was seen last
night with regard to the charges en-
bodied in the recently revived Rothermel
report. Mr.. Lembky said:
Il do not caie at this time to 20 very
deeply into tho questions suggested In
the article printed today. 1t is simply a
revival of the charges so many times
previously uttered by Henry W. Elliott.
For more than twenty years this man
has been endeavoring to stir up trouble
over the seal fisheries situation. Time
after time he has managed to get an
outlet for his spleen. but In not a single
instance has he ever been able to prove
even the most unimportant portion Of
his charges.
There is nothing new in the utterances
Of today. The report referred to was
made nearly a year ago, and its revival
at this time is simply one more effort
on the part of this already discredited
coterie to get more publicity and to ex-
press more of their unwarranted and un-

was also seen. DR.. Evermann said:
The republication OF these charges is
simply ridiculous. This man Elliott has
been uttering these allegations ever since
he was summarily dismissed from the
service in 1891 or 1892. Com
plete and altogether convincing refuta-
ton Of all this slander of the service Is
included in the Rothermel report IL any
one will delve sufficiently deep into II to
locate It. Also the story of Elliott's dis
missal and the complete explanation Of
the reasons for his elimination are in
cluded. too.
THE charges have been replied to so
often that IL seems to me not worth
while to make detailed denial at this
time. The refutation is a matter Of
sworn statement and proper evidence in
the Possession of Congress now"

RADIUM LIKELY TO SAVE
POLICE CAPT BYRNE'S LIFE

Faint hope now is felt that the radium
treatment may save the life Of Police
Captain Michael Byrne. suffering from a
cancer Of the upper lip. Slight improve
ment in the general condition Of the
patient has been shown.
Capt. Byrne is making a game fight. He
realizes full well the seriousness Of his
case, but has great faith in radium. He
believes the mineral will cure him.
Radium was kept on the cancer on
Capt. Byrne's lip for 14O hours. Several
thousand dollars worth OF the precious
mineral was used in the treatment
There is one mistake the newspapers
make in printing these stories. They US
ually are too optimistic and encourage
sometimes remote hopes" said DR.. Tru-
man Able, noted surgeon and radium
expert, who applied the treatment to
Capt. Byrne. I'VE are hopeful, but il
will be days yet before il can definitely
be said what effect radium will have in
this case
In the meantime Capt. Byrne at his
nome. 1884 Sixth street northwest, is
restless, not from fretting over his ILL
ness, but because he Is not on duty. The
fact that some improvement Is noted in
his fight for life will be joyous news to
members Of the police force.

years before he came TO Congress.
TN view of the tremendous hu-
manitarian problem involved. I cannot
believe the good people of Colorado will
oppose a plan which seeks to stop the
terrible ravages of a disease that is
levying a toll Of 1000 human beings every
year IN the United States" said Repre-
sentative Foster. I'VE all remember
vividly the sinking of the Titanic with
its loss of 800 lives and how the great,
sympathetic heart OF this republic beat
faster in those anxious days. At that
time, any demand for relief that might
whelmingly met, by Colorado and by
any other State OF the union, for . great
calamity knows no State lines.
Deaths Are Numerous.
Deaths from cancer each week in
the United States represent a tragedy
as great as the sinking of the Titanic
fifty such tragedies in a years time.
We could not save the victims OF the
Titanic. but Colorado has within her
boundaries, on the public domain. a
mysterious magic power that gives
every evidence of its ability to stop
this continuous and ever-increasing g
death roll from cancer.
Surgeons OF this country who have
some radium are forced to the awful
alternative OF selecting between the pa
tients on whom l. will be used. The case
Of my honored colleague, Robert g.
Bremmer is a most pathetic appeal for
more radium. i am told that his cure
would be far more certain IL DIR. Howard
A. Kelly had ten grams Of radium at his
disposal rather than one gram. And
while we have been planning what best
should be done to protect American in
terests properly. radium has gone up in
price from 5000 a gram to 500. 900"
