CRANSTON.

Cranston has not as yet thoroughly
awakened politically, although the time
for electing a council ticket is near at
hand, June 9th being the date. The Dem
ocrats have already held their caucus, but
in order TO defeat some party intriguers
who heretofore have jumped in and car
ried the caucuses, nothing was done to-
wards nominating a ticket, the meeting
adjourning, referring the choi &c of candi-
dates to the Democratic town committees.

THE EASTSIDe PARADE.

The hotel keepers at North Con-
way and the very energetic Board of
Trade of that town have already
commenced to make extensive pre-
parations for the annual coaching
parade which will take place Tues
day, August 80. This event, asevery
one knows, marks the climax ofsum-
mer gaiety, and since the Inaugural
ton of this event two years ago. the
managers have each year endeavored
to Guido the efforts of their predeces-
sors, and to such success that the
patronage to the railroads entering
North Conway was more than three
times on the second event what it
was for the first. This will be, then,
the third annual parade, and more
money, time and energy are to be
put into the preliminary arrange
ments, than for both prior occasions
combined, and a corresponding in
crease in magnitude and interest is
looked for Numbers of special
trains will be run by the Maine Cen
trail and Boston & Maine railroads,
and August 3Oth, if the weather is
favorable, will go down in the re-
cords as the great gala day of the
mountains. 1t is none too early,
then, for those desiring to partici-
pate in this enjoyable event to be
engaging hotel accommodations

base resulted in their both being
caught between the bases and put
out. Good stops by Shufelt and
Bannan in the 4th, and a strike out,
kept the visitors from scoring, and,
after two ST. Johnsbury men were
out, Clayton hit the ball safe and
Ide brought home the fourth score.
Errors on the part of the St.
Johnsburys in the fifth let in three
runs for the Haverhills, but the home
players partially atoned for this by
adding one more to their total; two
Haverhils struck out in this inning,
and Gauthier's fly catch silenced a
third man. In the 9th Monahan,
Shufelt and Gauthier connected so
closely with foul and fly balls that
the visitors share of the spoils was
just O; then Moore, Ide and Meigs
tried to reach first, but couldn't, and
the figure on "our side" was O also
In the 18th the bats were not big
enough to allow of the visitors
finding Shufelt's twirls, two of them
striking out and another stopping
before he reached first; poor throws
and wild pitching enabled St. Johns
bury to score again, E. Clayton
coming home with mo. g." Neither
side scored in the eighth, though Ide
for the home team did some tall base
running and tried to make it 7; the
visitors were shut out again in the
9th, and as the ST. Johnsburys were
ahead they did not take their half of
the inning, but closed the services
with 6 to 8 record in their favor.
The visitors played a very even
game each day-ra Their more SO the
first two days than the last; the
good-natured "auctioneer" coacher
created considerable fun, though his
team did not have much use for him
on Saturday. Ryan, the umpire,
was very satisfactory to spectators
and players alike; his decisions were
impartial and honestly given, and he
kept the games moving along in a
business-like way. The score:

PRESS COMMENT.

Deadly Enemies of Organized Labor.
The most deadly enemies of organ
lied labor are the men who under
take to interfere with the right of
every wage winner to seek his own
opportunities of employment at his
own terms. This is one of the dear
est attributes of personal liberty
the right to tOil-and it is the duty
of the government and Of society to
protect and defend it against all as
sailants, whether at Ceur d'Alene
in the Rocky Mountains, or at
Homestead in PENNSYLVANIA Phila-
delphia Record.
Doesn't Like the Ballot Law.
But the matter demanding present
attention is not chiefly the useless
ness of the law it is the necessity
for effort in the small towns to get
out the voters. Many of them will
hesitate about trying the new
tangled apparatus and will stay at
home and let the others wrestle with
it, unless a special effort is made to
interest them. This is phase of the
situation which town committees
and others charged with the conduct
of the campaign must bear in mind
[Middlebury Register.
The Matter of Moral Obligations.
But there are moral obligations
and moral claims which neither
employer nor employee can afford to
ignore. These obligations and claims
go back to the golden rule, to the
Sermon on the Mount; they go back
to the origin of humanity itself. The
man or set of men that ignores those
obligations may not incur any legal
penalty or violate any law. But he
does violate that sense of justice and
of fairness implanted in the human
heart, which should guide and temper
the administration of law New

RECORD OF THE WEEK.
The Situation at Homestead-Manaeer
Prick Shot.

Another startling incident in connec-
ton with the Homestead strike occurred
Saturday afternoon, when Manager
Prick, while in his Office, was shot four
times BY a Russian Jew named Berk-
mann, who had been hanging about the
premises for several days. The would
be assassin entered the Office, called for
Mr. Prick, and without a word of parley
fired, severely wounding the manager,
who, however, is not dangerously hurt.
Berkmann had planned to commit
suicide after the shooting, but tailed in
this. He was promptly arrested and
taken to jail, followed by an excited
crowd, who condemned his deed.
Some of the Homestead laborers are
losing their homes The Carnegie COM
pany on Friday began serving eviction
notices on Shanty hill, on laborers who
have not returned to work. The ten
ants of these houses are the poorer paid
classes of steel workers and the laborers,
and the finding of house room for them
will fall directly upon the advisory COM
nittee when the 10 days grace of the
eviction notices has expired. AS a rule
the notices were received in grim silence
and without any show OF feeling. The
company gives as its reason for this ac-
ton that they need these houses for new
help.
The withdrawal of soldiers from Home
stead has commenced. Wildly enthus-
iastic cheering on Tuesday among the
hundreds of white tents on Shanty Hill
proclaimed the fact to the strikers in
their homes at the foot of the slope. The
lucky boys in blue who were the first
ones to get marching orders We're the
members of the Eighth Regiment. 1t is
believed that the troops will gradually
be removed until only two regiments
remain. These two regiments will be
held till there is no further danger Of
trouble.
A Hot Wave.
Sunday and Monday were the hottest
days of the season. At Chicago mercury
stood at 940 and there were six deaths
from sunstroke; at Rutland it was 1902
in the shade and quarrymen and scale
makers had to stop work at Springfield,
Mass, one man dropped dead from the
heat; at Manchester, n. H, there was
great suffering, with mercury at $50 to
95o; at Louisville KY, the mercury
registered 1909 and there were nearly
100 prostrations; at Washington the
heat was intense and there were five
prostrations; at Pittsburg, Pa, St.
Louis, Mo, and New Haven, Conn,
there were several cases of prostration,
but no fatalities; three dangerous cases
of prostration and one death are report
ed from Detroit. In the western part of
Kansas the corn crop is said to have
been ruined by the heat; al Adair, l. T.,
there were % cases of sunstroke in "a
hours.

a Leakr sausage Apparatus.

A little lady walked into a butcher
shop and asked for two pounds of beef
steak. When it had been weighed she
told the butcher to put it in the mincing
machine and chop it up so that she could
make meat balls out of it for dinner.
The meat expert, quite an ordinary
looking man, entirely unsuited to be the
hero Of a story like this, followed the
instructions, minced the meat and hand
ed it in a paper to the customer. Then
he turned in his matter of fact way to
attend to a nan new to housekeeping
who was inquiring if he had any nice
mutton steak, and if so how much it
was a yard.
The little lady looked at the minced
meat and asked the butcher to weigh it
again. He did so, and there was just
~ pounds.
''Therel" said the little lady indig-
nantly. "Your sausage machine has
stolen a quarter of a pound of my steak.
I've suspected that machine for a long
time. You've got to make it good"
"I will not" retorted the butcher.
'Its q case of natural wear and tear.
Maybe some of the weight of the steak
has vanished in the process to which it
has been subjected, but there's two
pounds Of nourishment there"
"The machine either leaks or there's a
secret trap that steals my steak" the
little lady insisted. 81 won't take the
meat till it weighs two pounds"
And she didn't.-New York Herald.

The Clever Dog.

Alarge, healthy bulldog was sitting to-
tally unaware of the dog catcher's wagon,
which came rafting down the street at
that moment. Suddenly the fatal lariat
shot out, but the dog lodged it and made
a bee line for the man who handled it.
Then ensued an exciting chase, which
was much enjoyed by the populace in the
vicinity.
The dog catcher is never very popular
with people in general. In this instance
no succeeded in clambeTing into his
wagon minus his coattails.
A skirmish then ensued, which ended
in the temporary triumph Of the dog,
who retired to repose on his laurels. The
dog catcher came back from ignomini-
Gus fight a few minutes later, however,
and.human ingenuity soon triumphed
over brute courage. The dog was lassoed
and taken to the pound with other un-
| fortunates.
But here the innate n of justice in
man steps in to even up things. Several
admiring citizens had viewed the &C
lions of the dog, and when he was cart
ed away they took up a subscription,
sent out to the pound, ransomed the ami
NAL and provided him with a home.
1t is a little comedy like this that
makes life seem worth living even to
the most dissatisfied indiVidual.-Chi-

There's an unrivaled exhibition Of
canine equestrianism 10 be seen on the
streets Of Chicag0- almost any day.
which has fully as much OF even more
real merit about IL than one will sec IN
similar displays that are made in any Of
the greatest shows on earth" The
performer Is an exceptionally intelli-
gent water spaniel, and ho Is q rider Of
skin. His act consists, IN a word, Of
riding a delivery wagon horse whose
driver usually enforces q pell nell gait.
The spaniel sits his mount with his
hind feet ON the horses collar, or where
the collar would come, and his front
feet, one ahead Of the other, ON the mar
row ridge of the horses neck, his claws
clutched in the name. The faster the
horse goes the better the dog seems to
like IL, judging from his many banks
and lively way in which he wags his
tail. The sudden rounding Of q corner
never catches the plucky little animal
of his guard, but at such times he will
''curve in" with apparently the intelli-
gence of the most accomplished circus
rider, and so never loses his balance.
He has fallen but once in the two years
that his owner says he has been riding,
and that was when the horse came near
being killed by a cable car.
The horse never goes so well as when
carrying the dog, and that Of course
means that horse and dog are warm
friends. Woe to the person or animal
who bothers either Of them when the
other is around, for between the kicking
of the horse and the biting Of the dog
the two old chums make it exceedingly
unpleasant for intruders .-Chicago Trib-
