Hart for burgess on the Republican ticket. —:0: — A number of friends of Martin De-vaney are endeavoring to have him op-pose William E. Toner for the Demo-cratic nomination for Town Council In the Fourth Ward. lOSKPH W. OAVANAGH FOR BI'RGESS. To the RECORDER: I wish to call the attention of the Republicans of the town to Joseph W. Cnvnnagh, of the First Ward, as a Re- Dnblican candidate for burgesB. He Is one of the young Republicans who can win voters from the opposite party and at this time this is very Import-ant. It now looks as if Elmer E. Hart, also of the First Ward, will be the Democratic candidate for burgess. Every resident of that ward knows that Mr. Hart will receive a large Re-luhllcau vole, as he is considered as Rood a Republican as a Democrat, and if the Republicans wish to win they must have as a candidate one who can get votes, and plenty of them, too, from the opposite party. Four years ago, when a candidate for Town Council, Mr. Cavanagh changed a Democratic majority of six-ty to a Republican one of twenty, and no one denies his ability to do the trick again. With him as a candidate there Is little doubt that the entire First Ward ticket would be elected. X. Y. Z. INIVERSITY EXTENSION CONCERT.

The Prat half of the present basket la 11 100eon, which ended with a game between Conshohocken and Hancock, mi Tuesday nigin. finds the local team stutloned In the second notch, hot on ii.- heels of Huncock. The records icing Hancock won six games ami lost wo, with a percentage oi ,7S0 points, .'liile Conshohocken has won live, lost ii.i i c and has a percentage of .(26 p.nnis The locals, however, made a brilliant showing and the admirers of Ihc game have no kick to offer. In the beginning Of the season they were held back by the loss of their captain and in all-round player—Rambo—and lat-er on was further handicapped by the loss of their regular attack, Bennett. They were reinforced by the addition Of Lang in Rnmbo'a place and Ruth In Bennett's place, and the team then set-tled down for a successful season, and thus far have not been disappointed. Beginning on next Tuesday night the inter-state League will begin on the schedule for the second half of the sea-son and it is hoped that the local team will finish in first place. On Tuesday evening the Hancock A. A. Inter-state League team made their rlrst appearance of the season In this borough, and If they do not play here gain for several seasons the game of I'msilay night will be fresh In the minds of those who witnessed it. Nev-i was there such a game played before in this borough. The visitors played with that dash and vim that has char-totalised their playing all season and it was either team's game until within I half a minute of the end of the game when Moore scored a goal from the .It-Id and placed his team 3 points to the good. The final score was 22 to 19. For fierceness the game has been equaled by contests with both Camden md Millville, but with all things con-sidered It has not. Willie Hancock played the greatest game of any visiting team this season and also scored more points against Ihe locals than any of the first-class has ever done, with the single exception of New York. Ithey scoring '10), It must be acknowledge that their long shoots were miraculous and more :h rough the smiles of dame fortune than good judgment. No team ever made half so many long shoots which resulted In baskets, as did Hancock. il of her goals were made on shoots the entire length of the room only Intended to get the ball out of I heir territory, with little Intention of going mar the basket, much less re-sulting in goals. Conshohocken on the other hand had plenty of- shoots for the basket, but luck at times seemed to be against them. This was especially true ofCox. On more than one occasslon he dropped the ball fair In the basket only for It to rebound and fall on the floor. Ruth. too. made some very close throws but tats was also against him. The game was fast, fierce, and tak-l i as a whole, clean, only three fouls being called. The team work of the visitors was superior to that of any Nam that has been here this season and also excelled that of the locals on Tues-day night. Conshohocken did not seem to play with the confidence which has marked their playing In the big [ami l this season, yet they played hard und fast, and their game was much cleaner SI t more open than was that of Hancock. It was nip and tuck throughout the Ctlre contest, first one team was In ne lead and then the other; the great- ■ Ht difference In the score being 18 to 19 In favor of the locals. Hancock was never In the lead more than three points. It was Just 8.40 when Umpire Wilson ■tartsd the game, and It was a red hot light with neither side being able to score for seven minutes, when Custer made a beautiful goal from the side centre, The crowd the second lnrg I st of the season—nearly went wild. ■ ml four minutes later when he scored rood there was waving of hats ind handkerchiefs, and shouting and ihesrlng which continued fon. several minutes and in the meantime. Cox. anghl the ball and scored a goal. I hen showed his ability as a •uplain and entered a protest, which Slled Umpire Wilson to throw the goal out. If West had not protested th< goal would have counted and the M ore would have probably been differ-ent. West dropped one in for the visitors and then there was a lull and silence reigned when Moore missed a gl al on ii free throw from E. Hnlde-nifiii fouling Ruth. Moore set matters alight with a goal from the field, but Immediately fouled by running with the ball and Mathers scored on the IMe throw. Mathers then scored a Held gogl and the score wus 6 to 5 In favor of Conshohocken, There was no nine seining In this half. Th« tWO teams lined up for the final mild the cheering of about four b Ired voices for It Is in this hnlf -, in ral rule that the locals lose their opponents, but there was an ex-eeption to the rule this time, for the visitors stayed right with them, and for a so mm i,aii II was ■ "corker."

nOROlOH POLITICS
Mark Stab y has declined to be a Re-publtcan
candidate for Town Council
In the Second Ward. This leaves no
i pposltlon to John W. Campbell for the
bead ol the Republican ticket of that
ward.
Daniel Freas has withdrawn from the
field as a candidate for Town Council
on the Republican ticket of the First
Ward. G. W. Hummel will make the
contest.
A number of Republicans through-out
the town nre advocating the nom-ination
of Elmer I". Hart for burgess
on the Republican ticket.
—:0: —
A number of friends of Martin De-vaney
are endeavoring to have him op-pose
William E. Toner for the Demo-cratic
nomination for Town Council
In the Fourth Ward.
lOSKPH W. OAVANAGH
FOR BI'RGESS.
To the RECORDER:
I wish to call the attention of the
Republicans of the town to Joseph W.
Cnvnnagh, of the First Ward, as a Re-
Dnblican candidate for burgesB. He Is
one of the young Republicans who can
win voters from the opposite party
and at this time this is very Import-ant.
It now looks as if Elmer E. Hart,
also of the First Ward, will be the
Democratic candidate for burgess.
Every resident of that ward knows
that Mr. Hart will receive a large Re-luhllcau
vole, as he is considered as
Rood a Republican as a Democrat, and
if the Republicans wish to win they
must have as a candidate one who can
get votes, and plenty of them, too,
from the opposite party.
Four years ago, when a candidate
for Town Council, Mr. Cavanagh
changed a Democratic majority of six-ty
to a Republican one of twenty, and
no one denies his ability to do the
trick again. With him as a candidate
there Is little doubt that the entire
First Ward ticket would be elected.
