MATERIAL FOR PATRIOTISM.

Senator Newberry, convicted of a
crime and sentenced to two years i'm
prisonment in the penitentiary, has
appealed his case and kindly announc-
es that he will not resume his seat in
the Senate until the matter has been
disposed Of In the meantime the fact
that his name is carried on the rolls
gives the republicans control of the
Senate by one vote. the political align
ment being 4S-47.
And while such things as this can
exist In the most honorable and most
able deliberative body in the world,
the Senate of the United States" the
everyday folks in all parts Of the
United States are bombarded with
rhetorical effusions on "Americanism'
and devotion to our government.

Had Senator Newberry been mem.
Der, of neither Of the intrenched par
ties, had he been elected as, an indie
pendent or as representative of some
unimportant political faction, his con.
viction on a criminal charge would
have brought about his immediate ex-
pulsion from the honorable Senate
and he would have remained in ostra-
cism until his proof Of innocence had
been doubly shown.
or were Senator Newberry a poor
devil whose crime was, say. the fitch
ing of loaf or bread or the robbing
OF money-till, there would be no APP
peal for him. His conviction was for
"a crime that involved corrupt use OF
hundreds Of thousands OF dollars. The
evidences showed that he had stolen
his seat in the United States Senate
through bribery and thievery Of the
most flagrant kind. And the same

Berger was convicted under the

to question the motives OF the United

Champion and Challenger
Will Struggle to Finish
at Armory Tomorrow

Joe Stecher, worlds wrestling cham

OF MS mat struggles. Will defend his
tic IN match with Ed ("Strangler")
Lewis tomorrow night at the T1st Reg

each is in superb physical condition.
The tussle will be to finish, one
fall to dec de. Last year in this same
armory Stecher successfully defended
his laurels against the assaults of
Lewis after three hours of sensat onal
wrestling. The match was one OF the
most thrilling ever staged in this city
and it is expected that the issue to-

contested.
Under the one-fall rule there can be
no doubt as to the question of superb

WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass, Dec. ii. -
This is a big year for sports at Will
liams College. as far as the rumber
of students participating in the vaci-
Gus branches is concerned The num-
Der is believed to be greater than ever
before, about quarters of the
undergraduates having engaged IN
some form of athletics.
When the varsity football squad vas
called out ffty-six men reported and
as many more joined the frcshml IN
squad few weeks later. The annual
fall tennis tournament had seventy
five entries, while score or more
competed in the golf event. Cross

something like sixty men working out
and the annual class soccer series at

stored wrestling to its proper sphere
III this part of the country.
In their last match victory hung in
the balance until the last two minutes.
Two minutes before Stecher wound his
vicellke legs around the "Strangler's"
body the latter had the champiol1stag-
ger ng around from the effects of the
deadly head lock" Then Stecher got
his legs in action and they won him
the laurels.
This match will be struggle be-
tween Stecher's body scissors and the
st4angler's' deadlock 1t will be a
repetition of last years great duel,
and endurance will be the prominent
feature, for the stronger man will win.
Lew displayed phenomenal strength
and skill when he beat Zbyzsko a few
weeks ago. On that occasion Lewis
eiectr fed the crowd by the pressure of
his powerful arms and the speed with
which he workei.s He feels he can do
the same to Stecher,
