No Music In Church.

WATERLOO, May 29.-Forty ar
rests were made in this city SSaday
for violatiohN of the Sunday 'blue
law, although generally the lid was
on tighter than in the memory or the
oldest resident.
Theatres and movie houses con-
tipued to operate, after proprietors
and workers had been served with no
tice to appear in court today. In most
of the churches, where paid organlsts
and singers are engaged, the must
clans signed voluntary renunciat1ons
of their Salaries for the day, 1t peing
understood that they would be PAID
for directing choir work and playing
for practice on some weekday night.
At Grace M. E. church the pipe organ
was silent, and only volunteers oc-
cupied the choir loft on the occasion
of the baccalaureate services fPr
East High school graduates.

Four Violations at Fl. Madison.

FORT MADISON, May 29.-Fort
Madison survived the strict enforce
ment of the 'tblue" laws and EN-
joyed" the observance of a quiet Sun
day. The town was practically dead,
and no SOURCE of recreation was Of
fered to offset the solemnity of the
day. A few restaurants and a soil
tary ice cream parlor somewhat re-
lieved the monotony, and were the
only signs of life in the down town
district. Four violations were re-
ported to the police.

ing districts, voluntarily closed their

Zero Weather
Too Much for
Trap Shooter
F. w. Fullerton Collapses at
New Rochelle-Creen
Carries Off Laurels

The Arctic weather hit the weekly
shoot of the New Rochelle Yacht Oiuo
with such intensity yesterday that 'ne
courageous clay-bird enthusiasts were
rearly frozen to their guns. One man
did collapse. and he was Frank W.
Fullerton. of New York, but he revived
later and was assisted home; lng
soluble came rather suddenly ana
viii he was in the act of firing at MS
thirt. nth bird in the take nome
trophy, which was the first regular
event of the day.
Fullerton had motored from New
York and had not had time TO warm up
after the chilling drive. The call from
the traps came just rs he arrived, anu
he took his mark with the other snoot-
ers, remarkng 10 his nearest opponent
that he was literally a lump OF zee
Still. Fullerton's aim was good bu'
lust as he brought up the gun for the
hoodoo thirteenth clay he stfened
suddenly and would have fallen but for
assistance. He was carried TO the cluo-
house, where warm stimulant was
given to him and he was rubbed vlgor-
ously for about an hour, treatment
which brought him around.
Green Breaks 81
The best display of the day fell to
the lot of Reginald Green, who in the
scratch and handicap race o. 100 BIRDS
broke an actual "a, his misses being
low drives which were wellnigh I'M
possible to hit. When il is considered
that the temperature around Harrison
Island was Is degrees below zero,
Green's aiming eye was III excellent
focus.
Along with this bracket Green won
the Wilson point cup for the month
with a total of 20 points, the points be-
/ ing scored on the basis of one for
every handicap man he beat in the
four shoots that took place. He also
won the preliminary Of ten birds with
a straight.
On account Of the fact that it was
! the final shooting day of the month
| there was a general cleanup for the
/ serial prizes. Rogers accounted for the
/ December cup with four legs, and the
take home trophy after shoot-off
with Jones. He also captured the Du
! Pont fob, offered for the shooter who
should break full 2js most often dur
| ing the month.
The trap scores:
