f WEST KHLADXLPHIA T.I.CJL Local Team Defeats Pennsylvania Boys . ^ Large 8«re of 7, to » ^Tfae Wwt Philadelphia V. M^C-JL , last .Saturday evening iu their contest with the Cape May A. A., at Waahington Street Hall, and jthe local five rolled up f the highest score the team. .has made this season. The score at the end of the first half was 41 to 7, the Philadelphia b<m£ trailing. In the seoond half they dlHl little better, scoring 18 points 1 while <9ne May secured 30, the ifhal ■ count fcBw 71 to 28. The nsdhiiig team had .made quite, a record in their own neighborhood this ; season but evidently failed to bring their - horseshoe along aa Cape May had it easy , all the way. The locals went tb the front from the start and soon had such a . commanding lead that there was. never any doubt about the outcome. The only redeeming feature -for the visitors ; was the work of Leidy and Freed, who ; played clever games. Johns in aid ; Bacon. Of Millville. two of the speediest ■ floor men in South. Jersey, were on the i Cape May lineup and were easily the stars of the evening. Johnson played i forward and succeeded in caging, elevLu field goals, while Bacon, playing center, made the higher4 individual score ever made on a Cape May floor, securing sixteen field goals and three foul goals l, for a (fatal of 36 points. The only ■ player to secure more field goals ■ in this city was Yeager, of the Alehi team, who threw seventeen goals for a • total of 34 points against the local team s in one of the first games played by the ! Cape May team. Shields at forward, ■ and Hines snJ McDonnell, guards, also playtd their usual good games, but did , not %are to extend themselves Saturday 1 Cape May A.

Manager Dorner will have the strong Westville team for thi attraction Saturday evening. This team always puts up a stiff game and played Cape May to a stand still last season and have al- • ready defeated the local five in their first , game this season. Westville's lineup will . be Chew and Fields, forwards; Yerkes ■ and Cunningham, guards, and Van Osten, 1 from the Connellsville, Pa., Central r League team, will play center. This r is the strongest team that has ever rep9 resented Westville at this place, and possibly the fastest that has played here. Baoon and Johnson will be with Cape May and wffl probably finish the season - here. .Shields or' Channells will play 1 forward and Hines and McDonnell, F guards. This game will undoubtedly be a hard ■ fought one and should bring out a large crowd. The expenses in securing these ' kind of teams are heavy and the attendance for the past fsw gams* has been insufficient to pay the guarantees, so all 1 loyal basket ball lovers should turn out and aid the boys in giving this city ' some fine winter sport.

In every family they were ] . provided for as well as their fond par- I ■ and Santa CUus is heh, in higher —Sees* than ever. It is the children's greet] day and their reflected joy illuminates it for everybody. It may become * advisable to place water meters for the measurement of tha water used by hotels and the larger consumers in thia city, but it will never be necessary to Incur the large expense of placing them In all bouses. The city's net income from the water plant would be diminished rather than increased, as • result, and the annoyance to cottagers would be a serious detriment, since Cape May, as a cottage resort is noted for the absence of petty annoyances which are found elsewhere, and should foster this reputation. The fact that some of the younger resorts have water meters is not a good reason lor introducing them here| Quite the reverse, since the water supply in most if not all of the younger resorts is in the hands of private corporations bent upon squeezing gain out of every drop of water, but the stockholders in the Cape May water plant are the taxpayer* who are entitled to their dividends in liberal service. I The commission plan of city government if favorably regarded by some of our citizens. • • • a The rising ti4e of the people is undermining the foundations of caste and special privilege throughout the civilized world. In some countries at times the process is scarcely observable, but nevertheless it goes steadily on until the bank | crumbles and the splash as it falls into the stream attracts world-wide attention. The House of Lords in England has been undermined by the tide. It will fall or cease to be an available refuge for the special pirvilege. The people have served notice on our own national Senate that special interests must no longer be served; that the people will be served faithfully or their servants must suffer the consequences. Nothing can withstand the cumulative force of public sentiment. The height of political wisdom is attained 1 the party leadership that anticipates the popular desire and satisfies it. The ; depth of political stupidity is reached by a persistent antagonism to the wish and will of tlfb people. The accusation against Governor- ( elect Wilson, that he is at- , tempting to urge upon the legislature, t Martinc, as his candidate will not hold . water. He has simply directed the at tention of the Democratic legislators to 't the fact that 48,000 Democrats have declared Martinc their candidate under a law advocated by Democratic leaders and enacted by a Democratic House of Assembly, and that this is a definite man- ; uate from the party and in accord with its • professed pronciples which the party i representatives in the legislature mutt > heed. This is the situation concisely stated t and the recently elected Democratic 1 statesmen should not deceive themselves 1 with the idea that the people do not , understand it.

His $10,000 000 ^ donation for the establishment of a per | manent movement for universal pesee . is probably the finest of all his projects, but he goes seriously wrong when be en dorses the utterances of Representative ! Tawney in the House of Representatives, , accusing Gen. Wood and the Secretary j of War and army officers in general of trying to promote excessive army appro t priationa by creating a war scare. Such [ a view of the matter is not reasonable. is either the Secretary of War nor the ' Chief of General Staff to Wood, would gain anything from the increased appropriation* and on the other hand it is their duty to keep the president and - Congress informed aa to the military needs Of the country and not only safe , wl»e to give heed to their suggestions.

THE "ENOCH ARDEN" IMPfcRSONATION Nothing is more satisfying to the artistic sense than the correct interpretation of literary masterpieces, either in the play or by impersonation, and it is a treat of this kind that the Presbyterian Church of this city, offers the lovers t 01 high class entertainment on Tuesday evening, January 10th, at 8:30 o'clock, ' at the church. The impersonator will • be Mr. Jacob D. Townsend, who grad- • uated from the Ludlam School of Ora1 tory and Dramatic Art, of Philadelphia, and who has since bad considerable exI perience on the platform and great sueI cess in the pleasing of critical audiences in Philadelphia and elsewhere by his j finished impersonations. The impersonation will be accompanied by appropriate piano selections by an accomplished pianist, Mr. Clifford Vaughn, who has accompanied Mr. Townsend on several other occasions with great success A large audience should gather to enjoy this fine evening. «se Electric Light. • SENATOR AND MRS.
