Contract Awarded to the C0nnor

 The report that the legislative committee had decided to report against the Morris Cove road and in favor of having the com- pany take the route in the rear of the Kim berly and Beecher cottages, is denied by Attorney Wagner, who says he does not believe that any such decision has been reached by the committee. MT. Wagner said he believed that the legislature would not take away the vested rights of the con- pany. If the company can lay it's track. as the charter provides 1t will take most of the people that patroniza the road clear through to Lighthouse Point, and the Cove will not be made the terminus.

STARS vs. GREENWOODs.

On the Mulberry Street Grounds.
 The New Haven Stars played their first game of ball Saturday with the Green woods on the Mulberry Street grounds. The game throughout was very interesting and exciting to the large number present. It resulted in the following score: New Haven Stars 10, Greenwoods 2. The features of the game were the fine battery work of Dick Watson and George Skinner, and the work of Bob Heyworth at first base. Among the players on the Stars are 8 number of we'll known local ball players who if they continue their good work will soon be classed in the profea- sional rankE. Ball clubs who wish to play the Stars will address O.. W. Mix, 600 George street.
 It Is probable that arrangements will soon be completed that will result in a game between the Stars and the news- paper team of this city at Ssvin Rock, which will be hotly contested and interest ing throughout.

Life of Rutherford Il. Hayes.

After his retirement from the White
House March 4, 1887, eXPrcsident Ruther-
ford B. Hayes was heard of but seldom.
Occasionally he attended a Grand Army
reunion, aud he was prominent figure at
the Columbian celebration and banquet in
New York city Oct. l214, 1902. He was
always present at the annual meetings of
the board of trustees OF the Peabody fund,
of which all eX-presidcnts are members
But beyond these modest functions Mr.
Hayes remained IN absolute retirement ct
his home i'll Fremont, o., up to the time
Of his death. Mr.. Hayes career furnishes
Une of the most interesting chapters in the
political history of the United States
He was born in Delaware, O., Oct. 4,
]s22, his father having died the precedn &
July. He was graduated with honor from
Kenyon college, Ohio in August, 1912, at
tended Harvard law school for little
over year, and was admitted to the bar
in 1915. In Noyembe i, 1913, his health be
ing somewhat impaired, he went to Texas
for the winter, and after period of I'M
settlement located at Cincinnati the next
winter. In civil cases Lis practice was not
very large, but he won considerable repu-
tation as a prosecutor in criminal cases
and gained the friendship of such men a.
Salmon p. Chase, Thomas Ewing, Thomas
COrwin. MOucure y. Conway and Stanley
Matthew'S
And here is found the first evidences II
the greatest popularity of the man. Dur
ing all the years he was in Cincinnati no
one seems TO nave taken Il deep interest in
him, and when he became subject of M
tlonal inquiry Cincinnati
Could Furnish No "Reminiscences
Of him. The g,uerai expression of the old
citizen was: Yes, he was city solicitor,
nnh p2lSew him, but that's all" lie was
Guiel .,:'~!ious ard rather reticent "lJe did
lt' At"S one who knew him, talk about
ntJ2t=+ and arrive at conclusions. When
the @&pany had talked for an hour he
woulS suddenly break out with state
melC,-- nd that was his final Judgment in
the n-sTer. If we had been asked to pick
the fpT'zJe president out of all the young
professionals of Cincinnati, not one Of us
would have named Mr.. Hayes"
1t may also be added that of all the sto-
ries told about the boyhooi of great men
and the predictions as to their future, not
one is told of the boy Hayes lie grew
like hardy apple of the far north, a gen
itan or arusset, ripcning with extreme de-
liberation.
On Dec. 30, 1872, he married Miss Lucy
Ware Webb, daughter of DR. James Webb,
q physician Of high social standing in
Chllicothe. OF their eight children, -four
sous and one daughter reached maturity.
Mrs. Hayes was noted for her devotion 10
sick and wounded soldiers during the
war, aud to temperance and public chart
ties in peace Her refusal to have vine
served in the Waite House during her
sway there gave her Worldwide fame
END for that action Sue received many
