In the audience there were about 35 of the cadets who are spending their Christmas leave of absence in this city. ‘This was the first time the cadets have played a game off their own grounds, and this fact brought out a large nfimber of people who were anxious to see how the future naval offi- cers play foot ball, The Washington team was | rather the heavier and stronger individual! but this advantage was more than counter If play was " ‘ite exciting and close, althongh the ball was kept most of the | time within Washington's territory, and the | aeademy team only suceceded im making one touch down, from which goal was not kicked.

In New York Christmas dinners might have been eaten in the parks or on the lawns. Everywhore windows were thrown open to admit the balmy air and there was a general resort to the garments of springtime. In Pitts- burg, as far as the weather was concerned, it was the most remarkable Christmas ever expe- rienced. The day was bright and the ther- mometer registered above 60 degrees in the shade, while in the sun the mercury reached 85. The air waa as balmy asa late spring day and many families ate their Christmas dinner with the windows open as in summer, Louis the day was sultry at noon time. In Cin- cinnati the mild weather caused the grass to grow, dandelions to bloom, lilacs to leaf and maples to bud. soe THE RELENTLESS GRIP. The Ruler of All the Russias Has It— Spreading in Europe and America. ‘The influenza epidemic is prevalent through- out all Europe and many deaths from it are re- ported from Brunswick. A convention of law- yers had to be postponed in Paris, Frankfort’s street railways have suspended operations, many schools are shut in Austria and the Munich theaters are closed. A St. Petersburg dispatch says the ezar has suffered severely from the prevailing epidemic of influenza. Yesterday he was too ill to attend the regular Christmas church service, and was also compelled to omit the customary review of the parade of the guards. The empress pre- sided at the luncheon given in the Anitichkoff’s palace after the military parade. A Lisbon dispatch says influenza prevails to such an extent among the soldiers in the garri- son there that it will probabiy prevent the pro- posed review on the 28th instant, on the occa- sion of proclaiming Dom Carlos as king of Por- tugal. The king of Portugal is suffering from an attack of influenza, The Berlin public health authorities report a great increase in the number of enses of influ- enza and an aggravation of the disease with an increase in the death rate. The fatal effects are preceded by complications of pneumonia and laryngitis, From Bremen there is news that the gas | works are short of hands in consequence of the number of employes down with the epi- mic. in Munich the disease is increasing and the hospitals are full. The epidemic has appeared at Bucharest, Galatz and Braila, in consequence of the spread of the epidemic in Paris the hospitals are crowded, and the au- thorities lave been compelled to make extra- ordinary provision for the new patients, This has been done by the erection of a temporary pavilion on the groundsof the Hospital Beaujon.

THE soe MONTANA DEADLOCK, A Test Case Brought in the Helena Dis- trict Court. The test legislative case of Representative Roberts was called in the district court at Helena, Mont., Tuesday. W. F.

The attorney general claimed that Roberts’ petition was insufficient in that it did not set forth the fact of his election or that he was a member of the house. Another pomt made by the attorney general was that there was a ques- tion as to whether Roberts was a member of the legal house of represeutatives. Judge Hunt overruled the demurrer and decided that the i Haskell entered an exception, argument upon which will be heard Saturda: Then the vital point of the entire case, the validity of Roberts’ state board certificate, will be argued.

He was greatly changed in appearance. His hair was dyed dark brown and he had entirely discarded the clothing with which he came into Canada.

SILCOTT NEVER IN MONTREAL. The Philadelphia Press has a Montreal special that denies that Sileott was in that city. The Press correspondent says: “The stories sent out from tl city that Cashier Silcott, the Washington forger, was seen here are pure | fabrications. He has not been in the city any | time since his forgeries were discovered.” }_ The New York J’ress says that Inspector Byrnes received Tuesday a telegram from the chief of the Montreal police announcing that Herminie Thibault, the woman with whom Cashier Silcott was said to have fled from W. ington, has just left Montreal for New 2 Se Inspector Byrnes at once had menstationd at the depot to watch for the woman's arrival, oe RACE RIOTS GEORGIA, ‘The Militia Called Upon to Quell a Fatal Disturbance.
