SCORE WAS A TIE. Business College Eleven Almost Downod the Bicycle Club Team. A foot ball surprise was created Sat urday afternoon, when the eleven of the Scranton Business college played a tie game, 6-6, with the Scranton Bicy cle club eleven, the latter belns clearly beaten until four minutes before the end of the second half, when Zang made a touchdown and Thayer kicked a goal, tlelng the score. The college eleven was the lighter, but played a quicker game than the bicycle men, equalled them In defensive work and had only a slight disadvantage in aggressive plays, which alone saved the heavy bicycle- team from defeat. After ten minutes of the second half a touchdown by Poster and a goal by Horn gave the college men six points. By desperate playing Zang and Thayer tied the score. The line-up was as fol lows: Scranton Courtrlght, center; Connery, rlsfht guard; O'Hara. left guard; Allen, right tackle; Cogglns,' left tackle: Weir, right end; Duggan, left end; Decker, quar terback; Gelbart.

ONE IS BLACK AND ONE WHITE Joseph Phlpps, Converted in the Rescue Mission, Sails Next Week with Rev. .Philip Vomer for the Congo-Mr. Venter's Thonchtful Address. In the Second Presbyterian church last night was witnessed on unusually Impressive service, participated In by Joseph T'hipps, a West Indian negro member of the church, and younK Kev. Philip Verner. of Columbia. A. C. who In a few days sail together from this country for th CiinRo region In Africa, where .t'hey will be missionaries. rhlpps is well-known In Scranton, he having been converted three jvnrs ago In the Itexcue mission, on Franklin avenue, after being connected with a museum and ilivlng a worldly life. Voting Mr. Verner comes of a minister ial family of many generations. The church was well tllli-d by 7-30 o'clock, when the usual Introductory service or sonps and scriptural and psalter readings was begun by Kev. 'Or. Charles K. 'Robinson, the pastor, who later Introduced J. A. Lansins. who, with A. H. Williams and Dr. Robinson, had been 'Phlpps' friend nnd counsel lor since 'his conversion. Sir. Lansing related briefly the young negro's ca reer. He was born thirty-two years ago in St. Kltts, 'West Indies, and was converted In the 'Rescue mission on July 5. 182. He attended the Moody school in Chicago with the purpose of fitting himself for missionary work In Africa, and devoted six months to learning carpentry, as this knowledge will greatly assist him in his chosen work. The colored missionary then . spoke, but occupied the congregation for only a few moments. Jie confined himself to proclaiming his thanks to lod for having brought him from a wicked to a purer life, and modestly expressed his confidence In being able to cope with obstacles and come In close touch In Africa with the heathen of his own color. Roy In Vcnr. Man In Thought. In Introducing IMr. Verner Pr. Robin son remarked that his ancestry for seven generations back had been If the ministry. When the young man rose to speak It was noticed that he was not over 23 or 24 years of age and might be younger, lie looked a mere boy, but during the next twentv-flve minutes held the rapt attention of the audi tory and proclaimed himself a man In logical thought and forceful sppaklng which would thave done credit to one of more experience and years. Africa, geographically, topographic ally and theoretically, he said, offers today easier means of religious refor mation than has any other country in years gone by. Its cl!mnt Is of every kind save the arctic, while Its veg?table and mineral resources are of every known -arIety. The continent ltelf. which In length would reach from San Francisco to Europe, he likened to the rim and crown of a man's hat the rim representing a marshy lowland border encircling -almost the whole continent. nr.d the crown representing a plateau. The Niger, Cnngo. Zambezi and Nile rivers, he said, now offer the very In centive and ald'to civilization, although these streams In past years, on account of their huge waterfalls and dangerous rapids, have In the past prevented navi gation. Excepting the Nile, each has a waterfall or waterfalls separately exceeding the volume and power of America a Niagara, and around them feasible routes have been found. Missionary work nowadays, he said, Is in Its equipment, methods and sys tem, profiting by the work of the past and It is found to aid In the speedy re ligious reform of middle and southern Africa, even the former.being more ac cessible than Is the Interior of China, which country has been seml-clvlllzed for many years. The offering of the evening will he de voted towards purchasing PhiDDs' equipment. Will 15c Kqnippcd In Knglnnd. 'Mr. Vernor leaves Scranton tomorrow and with his negro companion will sail from New York for Liverpool next week. In England they will be out fitted and supplied from the Presby terian missionary equipment station, and will sail direct for the mouth of the Congo, from where they will go to tht Interior stations and separate, each bound for a different mission. A reception was given Joseph Phlpps at the Rescue mission by the members Saturday night. The mission was filled. The service began with song by the mission choir, led by Mrs. George (1. Sanborn, wife of the superintendent. The new missionary preached briefly from II Timothy, ill, IS. "With growing grace and in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ." Refreshments were served in ttie basement by Misses Laura Waugh. Grace Coglizer, Mulr and Mrs. Sanborn. FREE BEER ON SUNDAY. Dr. Mcl.eod Says the Sabbath Ts for Man, Not the saloon. "Sunday and the 'Saloon Should Our Sunday Laws be Relaxed or Repealed In the Interest of the Liquor Traffic," was the subject of 'Rev. Dr. J'ames Mc Leod last night in the First Presby terian church. It Is a subject of In terest Just now In New ork, and Is the plank on which the Issue of the state political fight Will depend: evidently the Interest has become Infectious, for the congregation -was so large as to nearly fill the church. Dr. McLeod based his discourse upon three verses from the -Scripture: St. Mark, II, 27 and 28, "And He said unto them the 'Sabbath was made for man and not man for the Sabbath," "There fore the Son of Man Is 'Lord also of the Sabbath;" St. Mark ill, 24. "And If a kingdom be divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand." Jle said: The Sunday question was a great one In the time of Jesus Christ and It Is a great question now. The Habbath of the Phari see was made for the Pharisee. Our Lord very often violated the Pharisaic Sab bath: He rebuked their hollow pretences. The Pharisee were utter strangers to the piru or 'ine true Haubatn. our Lord pal. I the Sabbath was made for men, and that It is lawful to save life, to do good cn that day. 8-ime of the friends, ns well as Its foes, have forgotten this truth. It Is quite pitiln from the teaching of our Lord that even the letter of a dtvlne Inw can be broken, though not the spirit of the luw. If you are "In the spirit" on the Lord s (lay you will not break any law. Most Important Before the People Now I call attention to this Rumlay question. It Is one of the most practical and Important now before the people; it Is not a fV-rantor.. question, not a New York question, though that state Is In a turmoil over it. Politicians are wrestling with the Bunday question and with the Sunday law. Roosevelt and his associates are held up by the politicians to public ridicule lor uowig ineir uuty, tor enforc inn- the law. "Free beer and no Sunday!" How do you like that? One party has gone that far they are the extremist. They want a Sunday, but plenty of beer; they want a law passed to give the cities a right to vote whether thc saloons shall bo open on Sunday; they want more "genuine lib erty." There Is another party, which maintains that thn Sun-lay laws shall be ministered. To the nonor to the press, be It said, that mortt of the papers are In fa vor of the maintenance of the Sunday law. It Is true that some of these vory news papers are themselves violating the luw publishing Sunday papers, and employing railroad trains and steamboats to deliver its wares. When "local option" and "home rule' phrases are used to deceive the people, we should ry and give the facts: The saloonkeepers maintain that each city should have the right to make Its own Sunday laws. Then why not mftke ail the lows for themselves? There are wards and ward In New York and Chi- coco that would vote in favor of gambling. 8aH Lake City would probably vote In tuvor or polygamy, ina proposition is absurd, but base and nicked ns H Is. It Is' advocated by some Influential papers. American Sabbath Is in Danger. There Is no use (Utilising the fact that the Amerlcun Sat-batb Is In danger. Uut It also has Its frlonds; churches, I'aunoiic and Protestant, have proclaimed through Its official bodies In favor of the Amer ican Sabbath. Thank liod that the Cath olic church has taken the position it has. If It Is rluht for New York elty to mane Its own laws on a. bail business, .then why not let the cities vote on larceny, divorce u iv I gambling or other acts. What has brought this aboiHT -ine en forcement of the law lost money to the brewers, the distillers and saloonkeepers. The wurkiiiirnifii who itot drunk on tf'in- day were coniiM-lled to keep sober on the Sat.bath and give up tneir practices, ami they ask us in the Hume "personal lib erty" 'to help im to pass such laws. When ami where will this liquor power us brought down? Dr. 'McLeod scored Senator Hill for his position In the matter a position for votes, die said that the United States does not want a iierman, Eng lish. French or Italian Sabbath; bet ter a thousand times the old Puritan Sunday, with all its oppression, than a continental Sabbath with free beer and resultant evils. The church choir, numbering about twenty-two voices, opened the service by rendering most beautifully "The fun 'Shall He No I.Ylore by Day," one of Woodward's best anthems. Dr. Mc Leod mil the Ten Commandments, which was tht keynote of his address. 'Miss Sailer, Tom. Abrahums and I). C. Richard sang with tine effect a trio entitled "Ood I'o SMerclful Unto Us and Uless Us." ST. MARK'S PARISH HOUSE. Archdcnenn Cox, of Nmitlcoke, Present at the Ceremony In Humore.

PROJECT TO EKECT A HALL Ad Ami-Treating League as an Auxiliary Orfsnlintlon-Two Cadets Kccelvcd Badges for Their Active Work in the Cause Despite the stormy weather, the hall of the Hyde Park Father 'Mathew so ciety was filled yesterday afternoon with delegates from the Catholic To tal Abstinence societies of the second district, assembled In the tenth quar terly convention. Timothy W. 'McCoy, of the West Side, entered upon the presidency of the convention and will remain at the helm during the current year. John Gavan, of the South Side, assumed the secretaryship. President i.McCoy Is entitled to much credit for the ability wit'h which lie conducted the business and shut off needless debate. Speeches were made bv ex-d'resldent J. H. Devlne, of the Diocesan union, ex-Vice-President Oharles Lavan, of Wilkes-Rarre, and Vloe-d'resident Peter I.McCoy. The pre liminary business having passed, the question was put for debate,. "What Is the best means of advancing the tem perance movement?" On this subject the unanimous sentiment was that the co-operation of the clergy Is the best means. -Delegate iMcTlernan, of Luzerne ptreet, believed In stopping the Illegal sale of liquor. He 'had personal knowl edge of a grogshop In full blast yester day. 'Some of the delegates asked him If ne knew about the matter, why he didn't report It to the proper authori ties? He answered that they as well as he knew 'the same facts; they knew that every Sunday In the year a half dozen saloons In the very block the con vention was meeting In keep open house. Editor Jtidgo's Rousing Motion. James F. Judge, editor of the Index, logued quite lengthily a motion that a longed quite lengthily a motion that a vigilance committee, consisting of one member from each society, be appoint ed to go around on the Q. T. and col lect evidence against the liquor seller.-) who do not regard the laws of the state. This committee would be ex pected to confer wMh the spiritual di rector of the union, with the aim In view to use moral suasion toward bringing the saloon element to terms. The motion cnused commotion and spirited cross-lire. President iMcCoy refused to entertain tne motion ami Mr. Judge appealed from the decision of the chairman. The appeal was sus tained and the motion came up for de bate. A. J. Martin was greeted with many "O'h's!" when he declared himself not opposed Ito the licensed snloon. Ho would put his foot on the hole In the wall and 'the man who, having a li cense, sells liquor on 'Sunday and dis penses it to minors. There were oth ers, many others, who spoke on the mo tion; but, flnnlly, w'hen the motion came to a vote, It was put over until the next ounrterly convention. All other questions that were down for de l-ate were continued until the next con vention. Mr. Judge brought up another mat ter, which was that a committee should be appointed to formulate a plan of honorary membership in societies. He and Delegate ;M. J. O'Toole. with the district 'officers, were appointed on that committee. Anti-Trcnting League. There was yet another matter on which Mr. Judge desired to be heard. It was the formation of an'antl-treat-In league as an auxiliary organization, the Intention of the league to be the prohibition of the habit of treating. The author declared that treating Is a baneful matter. lEx-Presldent Devine characterized 'Mr. Judge's proloct as a radical and dangerous step. 'There was some discussion and eventually the matter was laid on the table until -the next convention. Mr. O'Toole Introduced a subject that received favorable consideration nnd was recommended as possessing very much merit. (He thought that the tem perance movement 1s powerful enough to have a cenitral hall building on some of the principal streets of the city, as a monument to the stability and en during of the temperance cause. At the nexit convention the plans of differ ent architects will be submitted to the dlegntes, and they will be informed In regard to the cost of erecting; a hall. Mr. Devlne spoke for the subject nnd thought It would be Just the thing that is needed. The delegates took a vote on the matter of the hall, and decided that it would he well to look over plans and consider the estimate of cost, rndcts Hecclve llndgcs. A worthy feature of the convention was the nrescntatlnn of gold badges to Edward T. McHale and Thomas Ken ney, two young cadets of the Hyde Park Father Mkthew society, for 'having brought In the greater! number of members to the Cf.det society. J. H. Brown, president of the Father Mathew society, made the presentation speech, and the badges were pinned on thf breasts of the boys by President Mc Coy. An Intermission of thirty minutes was begun at 9 o'clock, and the dele gates were served with coffee, sand wiches and cake by a corps of young ladles. The convention afterward was occupied with the adoption of plans for expediting business. It has been cus tomary heretofore to allow unlimited debate on all questions, and too mnny have taken advantage of this latitude and turned the convention Into an ora torical kindergarten. The convention adjourned to meet on l'he Becond Sun day of January In St. John's hall, Ca pouse avenue. Wall paper at your own price. Pratt's Book Store.
