VIOfOttluad MdrvMAL- The Defenders of Scranton, con sidered to be one of the fastest basket ball tearns in this neck 'o the woods, were a disappointed lot after the game with Normal Friday evening. 'I hey came here expecting to win, and appeared to have the utmost confidence that they would triumph over the school boys. To be honest about it there were quite a few of our townspeople who were as much as tonished as the visitors. The wallop ing given the Wheelmen recently by the Scrantonians was fresh in the minds of many, and a consideration of this fact argued in their favor. The game was probably the finest and most scientific ever played here. The visitors displayed wonderlul speed, but were unfamiliar with the out of bounds system, and herein lies the story of their downfall. Lewis for Normal was a conspicuous figure throughout the evening, while Tigue and Kane carried ofi the honors for their team. The contest closed with the score at 34 to 23. The line up is herewith presented.

This Society supplied thirty two families with everything needful for a good Christmas dinner besides sending candie?, toys, etc. for the children and here we wish to mention what a little boy did at Christmas time. Master Myron Rishton mended all his broken toys, took the pennies he had saved and bought new ones, also made little scrap books that would please every little boy and girl, and sent them to us to be sent in our baskets to the poor children, who otherwise would not Jiave received them. We think this act of Master Myron worthy of commendation and wish others would follow his example of thoughtfulness, and in so doing make people happy on Christmas. We wish to thank all who in any way helped to make our efforts, at this time, in this work, a success. The United Benevolent Society. Sec.

By its ample system of Bible Study by the virile, hopeful, winsome tone of its meetings for men; by the wisdom oi its methods of personal wotk; by its cosmopolitan brotherliness, it has, in my judgment, reached the high est level ol efficiency attained by the moral and spiritual forces of our time."

Anti-Saloon league's Activity in Berwick A branch cf the Anti-Saloon League has been established in Ber wick and as a rdsult of the activity and vigilance of the orgihization the licenses of two of that town's land lords is in the balance. The parties against whom exceptions have been taken are S. K. Heller and James H. Fairman. The method employed by the League to secure evidence against the oflenders was identical with that used in this town a year or more ago when the license of George Enterline was revoked. For instance, a stranger would enter the restaurant or hotel, order up the drinks and invite those in the room to join him. Frequently there is a minor in he crowd and he along with the others is served with intoxicants Later a remonstrance is filed and wh':n the case is called the stranger appears as the star witness. This appears to be the trap into which the above named gentlemen have fallen. Besides this thev are accused of selling to men of known intemperate habits and men who were intoxicated, selling in larger quantities than is permissible by law. Mr. Fairman s also charged wiih keeping a disorderly house and Mr. Heller of permitting gambling. The hearing of the evidence in the cases occupied a greater portion of the session of the court last Monday. Beside the evidence given by the two agents in the employ of the League, who detected the viola tions, testimony was given by a num ber of other witnesses. Berwick was well represented. The audience nearly filled the court room, which would seem to indicate that the people are taking quite an interest in the cases. The prosecution was repre sented by Hon. H. M. Hinckley and James L. Evans Esqs. and the defend ants by Fred Ikeler, C. C Evans and W. Kase West Esqs. FUN! FUN! FUN!

A Few Words in General That May Result in Profit to Those Wise Enough to Grasp Opportunities. It has only been within the past two years that the wonderful Can'anea deposits were brought to the attentionof the Copper marts of the world through the daily increasing pro duct of the Greene Consolidated Copper Company, the product of which is now astonishing the metallic world by its magnitude. The LA CANANEAS GOPPER COMPANY gives you an oppor tunity to obtain an interest in this rich Copper region at a reasona ble price for its shares. In this Cananea zone the copper deposits are among the richest ever discovered and of great volume, besides labor is obtained at $1.00 per day gold, as against $4.00 per day gold in Montana. The Richest Mines in the World Are in Mexico. The La Cananeas Copper Company is one of the four companies virtually owning the entire Cananeas Copper Zone, termed the richest ore deposits in the world. For the first time its securities are offered for public subscription at the low price of $t.oo per share, par $5 00. The Greene Consolidated, owning the property immediately adjoining our mines, offered its first shares at $5.00 each, and now holds them at $50.00. 35,000,000 Pounds Per Annum. History Should Repeat Itself. The Greene Consolidated Copper Company has surprised the mining world by its re markable success. Two years ago they, like ourselves, were asking the aid of capital. Now they smelt 1,000 tons of ore daily, employ.ooo men, owns its 'own railway system, costing nearly $1,000,000, and have been making copper at the rate of 35,000,000 pounds per annum. Next year they claim their product will be 72,000,000 pounds, and c)aim"lhat they haven sight the richest bodies of copper ore in the world, aggregating $120,000,000, and say the Company can lay blistered copper down in New York at four cents per pound. Our property should prove a worthy neighbor. Its location speaks eloquently of possi bilities that may make our stock of great value. The Cananeas Copper Company has acquired 230 acres of this wonderful mineral zone, our mines almost completely surrounding the great Puerticites properties of the Greene unswiiuaieu, in wmqn mey ciaim $40,000,000 IN SIGHT. Our property is the La Libertad and El Ultimatum. Study the following official map, which tells its own story.
