That Ease (Ban or Ba~D Controversy

The Canaan base ball nine came to this village on the Fourth to play a match game with the Millerton nine, but owing to the rain only six innings were played by each nine and the score stood 12 to 15 in favor of the visiting nine. The Connecticut Western News seems to think the boys from that place were rather coolly received by our boys, but we think The News is wrong this time. The boys from that place seemed to enjoy themselves pretty well and ours were as courteous as possible. .-1HiUe1tOn Telegram, July 10.
 Under date of June 15 the captain of the Millerton club wrote to the captain of the Canaan club urging him to bring his club to Millerton the Fourth of July, We quote from the letter as follows:-
 eve will assure you a good game and & re- turn any time noted by you. The band has promised to furnish music for us and we will have dinner for you and use you like gentle | men,"
 The Canaan club accepted the invita-. ton and the Millerton captain afterwards came to Canaan and personally assured the Canaan captain that his club would be handsomely treated. The Canaan club visited Millerton on the Fourth and when the dinner hour arrived they notified the Millerton captain that they were ready to dine with his club. H. replied that he had nothing to say abou a dinner and referred them to some ont else, who in turn said he knew nothing about it, and so it went until the Canaan boys ''saw the size of it" and bough their own dinners wherever they could The only band music they heard wa what came through the windows of th' skating rink, but they heard plenty O chin music about the game.
 The umpire intended and endeavorec to be impartial, but in the first inning he made several mistakes and ruled il favor of the Millertons, yet the Canaan

A Trip to Canaan Mountain.

A COMPOSITION BY MISS KATE HEAToN OF
 CANAAN HIGH SCHOOL
 One pleasant day in May small party of us set out to climb Canaan mountain. We started from the village about half past one, thus having the whole after noon before us for our walk. We first went up Church hill, a small hill lying north of the part of the mountain we intended to climb. From this hill we took a path through the woods which our ''guide" said would bring us to road leading to the top of the mountain. After walking long way through these woods we came to the conclusion we had missed our road, so turned back and took another path which happened to be the right one; this mistake, although taking us about a mile out of our way, gave us very pleasant walk, as there was a good path leading through thick woods and we found many kinds of wild flowers. When we at last commenced climbing the mountain we found it not quite so easy, as the road was steep and not being shaded We had the full bene- fit of the sun.
 On reaching the highest ledge of rocks we stopped for a short time to rest and take look at the towns and villages below us; the view was very fine and We felt fully repaid for our trouble. On our right was the village of East Canaan, where we could distin- guish few places that were familiar. In the northeast were Sodom and Clay ton and we could just see the spire of the New Marlboro church, also the build ing formerly known as South Berkshire Institute. Directly north were Sheffield and Ashley Falls. In the northwest Mt Washington and few small villages. West was Chapinville and Salisbury and the beautiful Twin Lakes; these could be seen quite distiI 9tly and we watched Q train of cars leave Canaan station and i kept watch of them most of the way until they had crossed the trestle work at the lakes. Just below us was the vil- lage of Canaan, which of course was most distinctly seen and most of the buildings in the place could be easily distinguished. The Housatonic railroad could be seen two or three miles, but not as far as the Connecticut Western railroad The track for over mile looks like straight road running up steep hill, although in reality there is not much of a grade.
 After staying up on the rocks as long as we wished we went down 0 short dis tance and took another path leading to "House Rock;" this is a very pleasant road and we enjoyed the walk very much.
 "House Rock" is situated on the western point of the mountain and is a large, steep rock which can be climbed only by means of ladder. We went to the top, but staid only a few moments as there was not much of view from there compared with what we had al ready seen. The pleasantest sight that met our eyes from this point was many smaller rocks just above us, which wt were eager to see. After descending "House Rock" we explored the small

The Famous $1OO.OOO Leavitt Earn
 Burned.

The big barn on the farm of Harry A. Leavitt at Great Burlington, Mass, was burned Tuesday evening, July '. The cause of the fire is unknown and is sup posed to be accidental, since no motive for incendlarism can be alleged. The building was entirely destroyed. The live stock was saved. but most of the other contents, hay, grain, farming tools, machines and the like were burn ed. The insurance is not known. The barn was remarkable collection of buildings, including stables, quarters for common and fancy stock, grist mill,
 saw mill and carriage houses. Although built in 1852, it was always called the biggest and best equipped barn in the state. Its builder was David Leayitt, grandfather of Harry A. Leavitt, and he spent S125, ,000 on it. The Leavitt
 place, short distance south of the village, has for many years been the summer home of the family, originally New kers.-SprinqtieId Republicaa.
