Two High School Teams Yesterday Show Local Public - 7 ; English Game. A FAipjCY GOOD CONTEST

BOTH MARION AND RICHMOND SHOWED UN FAMILIARITY WITH . j THE GAMECONTEST RESULT ED IN 0 TO 0 SCORE.

i The game of English Rugby was ia troduced yesterday afternoon a.Hhe public play grounds by a contest between the Marion high schoprand the local high school. It resulted in a tie. 0 to 0. This game, which la A great (avorite in England and other foreign countries, may prove popular' here. The game of Jtugby is much, more . spectacular than the American game pf football, .owing to the great amount of open., jlay; running, j passing and kicking of the. ball. ,Tbe aim of each side is to advance the, ball to the goal

Of the rival team. The? ball ,may be kicked, may be carried, or f even thrown in a backward direction, from one member of .the team to another. - Generally speaking it may be said that the dominating idea of the Rushy game is the manipulation of the ball through the activity and skill of

the players, rather than by means of , strength. The result depends upon good kicking, skillful passing and clever work in carrying the ball, all this involving team work and good ' generalship. . Are Fifteen Player. While the American team is an '"eleven" the Rugby team consists of fifteen men. Instead of the close formation of the American game the Rugby men are spread out to cover a large surface of the field,' excepting those, of course, in the scrimmage itBelf, which corresponds to the scrimmage of the American game. In the Rugby game there are seven men who form the scrimmage or' "pack"; two halfbacks, . one fullback " and four three-quartet backs. , v.. The game yesterday being new and not understood was uninteresting to a good many' of the spectators, despite the fact that it had many redeeming features. Roth teams put up a fair game despite k their limited knowledge pf the game. Neither side was able to score, although Richmond had several chances from the field, v P.- Hiatt missed a drop kick from the 25,'yard line' and Q.Jliatt's. attempt from the 30 yard line was blocked by a Marion scrum. ' Taking-" into consideration the game : as1 a , whole the Marlon " backs outplayed the "locar batiks. vThe attempt of the Richmond backs to star practically lost the game for them. The Richmond backs-1ost their head3 and tried to play' - regular football.1 During the second half the Richmond ; scrums outplayed the scrums of the

Aianon team, rne main reature or the Richmond team was their tackling. This kept Marion from scoring several times. The work ' of White n t tin1fhnrlf nnrl Mavor at throowinart.

erback was noticeable. Capt. Ferling played a strong game also, his punts v bringing - good gains, for his team. For Marion, Peter Gelger and Mason ' played best. The lineups were as follows: Richmond. Marion. Craves Gotsheil Hobson E. Yearling

HE WAS HOME NEARLY EVERY EVENING OF THE WEEK EXCEPT MONDAY, TUESDAY AND A FEW OTHERS, HE SAYS.

(American News Service) St. Louis, Mo., Dec. ' 4. "I put in one hell of a time." That is what George Edward (Rube) Waddell, the Brown's southpaw baseball pitcher, said in giving his deposition in his suit , for divorce today when asked If he did not live happily with his wife during the year 1904., . Waddell told the story of his matrimonial troubles before Notary Public C. T. Jarvis'. He said he married Mat Skinner three days after he met her in Lynn, Mass., in June, 1904, and that their troubles began three days afterwards. When Rube Went Out. "During the first three weeks of your married life you stayed at home most all the time, didn't you,' Rube?" was asked. "Yes except when I went to the Aghts.'v : , "Well, how often did you go to the fights?" , Rube scratched his head and appeared ,'tb be thinking intently, t ' "Well. Monday nights I had to go' to the National Athletic club to referee the bouts. Wednesday nights I was at Jack McGregan's club to see the fights. Thursday nights " had to go to, another athletic meeting; and Saturdayfnights, too." -- fA . ; "But you stayed . home Sunday nights?-,,. i t "Oh, yes,' except for,-a ..couple, of hours, when I. went over, to t he cluh to playa game of pool," answered the diamond hero. , "" - Rube then said that his trouble with his wife began and continued until the final separation in 1007. He brought her to St. Louis during the World's Fair, he said, and she stayed out until li o'clock, much to his humiliation. "What is your salary now," hex was asked. "I get $l,2O0 a year from Mr. Hedges," he said.

One can sympathize with the desire to preserve the place of the Bible in the ceremony, but the House of Lords has given effect to "this desire "by. a compromise, that has neither utility nor historical associations to recommend jit., ); i The. simpler method of the uplifted handwhich has proved to be at once dignified and effectual in the Scottish courts, is perferable on more grounds than, one. .

The following is clipped from the New Albany column, written by Bro. Scott: "It seems as though the state board is getting quite extravagant in regard to the prizes offered by them for getting new members. It looks as though we, as a national protective association to have to resort to such methods to get members is all out or order. If

our 6tate board, or any other - state board, can afford to offer such prises as our state board has offered, that it would be 'much wiser to reduce our dues to $!)or $10 per annum and cat out all this orize business, aa some one

T. P. A. Notes

BY T. C. H.

Where is our esteemed national nres-

ident, Mr. P. J. O Meara? Is he, too,

now with the "gang" or will he show the qualities he Is supposed to have and work now for the good of the organization? Isaac Smith visited the club room

last night for the first time in several

weeks. It seems the baby consumes all

of Ike's time now and the boys don't

get to see much of him.

Some of the more pessimistic members are beginning to wonder whether

our boasted reserve fund Is actually in

existence. . . These train wrecks are becoming uncomfortably close. With the ditchinz

of train No. 24 Friday night, many of

tne ooys are beginning to sit up and take notice. The Richmond bors have

all been fortunate of late, and it is

hoped they will continue alone the
