 Here's what happened yesterday 10 sever definitely all diplomatic re- lations between Mulligan and the New Britain management:
 Emile Jacques, New Britain's se- lection for umpire in this series with the Blues, arrived at Clarkin field yesterday afternoon but refused to go on the field without receiving S75 for the last game and $l00 for his services yesterday. This Muligan positively refused to pay. Was kowitz then refused to allow New Britain to go on the field unless Jacques of'iciatcd and there the matter rested while the two manage mcnts argued and the more than r. GOO fans sat shivering in the grand stand, shouting for action 10 begin. "Mulligan was agreeable to pay ing Jacques S25 for each game, the same as he received for refereeing all of New Britain's home games this year, but would not listen to the l hodup. Waskowitz still kept his team off the field. Finally Business Manager F. Daley and Coach Dave ! Dunn of Now Britain suggested , compromise. They offered 10 pay l $G250 out of their own pockets, or ! half of the difference between what Jacques demanded and Mullgan was willing to pay. The local promoter consented to this, rather than to dis appoint the large crowd present, al- though he knew he was being held up. So the game went on.
 That's why Mulligan will have
 nothing more to do with New Brit ain as long as Waskowitz has any
 thing to do with football there. Genial George figures that after the
 beating his Blues gave the Reds yes
 tcrday, there would be no further
 interest in a third game. The Ques- ton of supremacy was settled defi-
 nitely. Besides, he will not give Waskowitz another chance to dou.
 blocroSs him. He has done it for the last time. Mulligan insists it
 was the New Britain man who en- couraGcd Jacques in his holdup and
 he wants tho football public of Con- nectiCut to know it.
 "Wuskowitz is all done in state
 football as far as Mulligan or any Iothcr decent honest, reliable man. 'aCers are concerned"

Ball Bearing Makers Have Little Difficulty in Disposing of Stanley Rule-Stiff Defense Cuts Down Basket Shooting-High Street Crew Has Big First Half To Win-Stanley Works Outscores Opponents in Second Frame.

The Fafnir basketball quintet and the l.. S E. five had no difficulty In of their opponents In the Industrial league at the '. M. c. A. gymnasium last night. The Bearing Makers trounced the Stanley Rule X Level by 52 to IS score while the High street crew disposed Of the Stanley Workers by count of Sl to IT.
 Tafnir $. R. X l..
 The Fafnir quintet with LaHar Belser, Gierochowski, Wilson and Saunders as the first string five, flashed real good basketball and re- ceived stiff opposition from the vet eran Jimmy Murphy and his mates. Gierochowski started things going when he caged a well aimed shot for q double counter soon after the game began. Jimmy Murphy set his team on the scoring list by caging a free try after he had been fouled.
 Right away, the Fafnir crew sped away from their opponents. LaHar, working prettily, counted another double decker and another field goal and two caged free tries by Saun- ders gave the Fafnir crowd some thing to cheer over.
 Flodin chalked up the second score for the Rule and Level team by q free try. but Belser & Co.,, speeded up and pushed ahead some more. Sikora, the target for good natured razzing all evening from the gallery, pulled one of the incest plays of the game when after long and masterly dribble, he sunk the ball for double counter for his team. This ended the scoring for the Stanley Rule for the first half. Bclser caged one of the prettiest one hand shots seen on the court in this period. The half ended with Fafnirs leading by q 17 to { score.
 Second Half
 In the second half the Level mak- CTS were unable to do much against the stiff defense put up by the Bear CTS. Aronson caged two field goals one after another and another dou- ble counter and three fouls were the total they were able 10 sink in the net. LaHar, Gierochowski, Belser, Dennis and Saunders went on an orgy of scoring in this half and be- fore the game was over, there wasn't oven the semblance of hope for the
 Elm street crew. Saunders pulled pretty one handed shot from the corner while LaHar caged some
 pretty long shots. The pass work oi
 I'afnirs was good to watch. | The game was the first that the
 Stanley Rule X Level five has played
 but even in defeat last night, tho team gave good exhibition of pass
 work and after a few more work. outs, the combination should make
 trouble for the best in the league. 1 The Sumn13rV.

CHICAGO, August 29.-The unifica-
ton of the Northern and Southern
branches of the Methodist Episcopal
Church has been favored By five con-
ferences, meeting this week end.
Unanimous vote on the proposal was
cast by the Central Swedish Confer.
ence in Chicago and in the Southwest
Spanish Mission Conference in AL
buquercue, \. Mex.
Both are affiliated with the North
ern branch Of the church. Laymen
of the Central Swedish Conference
vote today.
The German Laymen's Association
in Chicago approved the unifiCation
by a vote of 40 TO 20. Approval also
was voiced by the Northern Swedish
Annual Conference in Duluth, Mimi,
which decided that TIE Southern
branch should have a voice in the con
ferenceS of the Northern church.
Clergy Of the Western Norwegian
Danish Conference in Aberdeen,
Wash. voted in favor of the union.
and laymen of the same conference
will vote later.
In an address prepared for delivery
today before the German Conference
here. Bishop Charles Edward Locke,
st. Paul. Mimi, deplored the use of
argument and discussion by the
preachers in their pulpitS and entreat'
ed them to present the character and
teachings of Jesus Christ.
1T is not the argumentative about
Christ that will advance Christianity
hut the presentation of the character
and teachings of Jesus. Many people
Use all their energy in disputation
about Christ, when a straying and
wicked world is needing the gospel
which Jesus Christ preached.
Evolution and many other subjects
which are dogmatically discussed by
defenders OF Christianity miss the
mark and sidetrack the great issue.
.IesuS Christ came to save mankind
and by augmentation many a preach
er obScured the Christ. We need not
explain Christ, just proclaim him
Christ is truth and the truth will take
care of itself"
