GRANGE NEWS.

The members of Protective grange met
last Wednesday evening and listened to a
recitation by Miss Dora Haskell, an origi-
nal song by John Gale and an illustrated
song by Ernest Goodenough. The ques-
ton for discussion was "Forage crops and
whether short wheat could now be sown to
take their places" 1t was opened by H.
D. Thayer, who said that fall sown rye
made our earliest crop for feeding and
could be cut twice in one season, then peas
and oats and of course corn. Several had
good success with barley sown as late as
August, while Hungarian, if well fertilized,
would produce good crops if sown as late
as July. The discussion was lively and
the different speakers showed that the
grass crop was variable. Some thought it
on an average with others while nearly all
were sure that their own crop was below
the average at this time of year. Kaffir
corn has failed to come up with nearly all
who have tried it, the fault probably being
due in a measure to poor seed. Charles
W. Sargent showed specimens of perpet'
ual clover found in Esteyville. The seed
was brought from England several years
ago by Charles Endlich. 1t did not seem
to take kindly to our soil and climate but
still lives in that locality.

SPORTING.
A Ball Game July 4.

Brattleboro will celebrate July Fourth
with base ball game, Bellows Falls being
the contestant. The Bellows Falls team
will contain several college men and the
crack pitcher of the Cushing academy
team. Brattleboro will be represented by
four or five college men who are now at
Mortified, and by such local players as
Waite, Ware, Perry and Johnson. The
game will be called early in the afternoon,
probably 2 o'clock. Some interesting con-
tests like 100 yard dash, circuit of the
bases and long distance throwing are likely
to be introduced.

o. L. MINER.
sudden Death of One OF the Best Known
Meh OF BrattIeboro.

Suuueh Death oil one OF the Best known
Meh OF Brattleboro.
The death of Ozias L. Miner, suddenly,
on Wednesday afternoon last, at his res
idence on Guilford street, brought the deep
est feeling of sorrow throughout the com
munity. The honored position which he
held in the social life of the people, his
rare business capacity, his deep religious
character, and the high esteem he had won
as a citizen by his public spirit, and the
purity of his life lends to the death of Mr..
Miner the weight of public bereavement.
He had but recently returned from de-
lightful visit to his daughter, Mrs. Charles
Boynton, of Roxbury, Mass, and was Civ
ing his usual attention to business affairs,
when the physical difficulty, from which
he has suffered at intervals during recent
years, confined him for a few days to the
house, under the care of his physician.
Though the symptoms were not consid-
cred dangerous, they were of a character
sufficient to lead his son, Sidney O.
Miner, to postpone business trip, and to
remain near his father for a few days. As
there had always existed between them
the most intimate relations it seemed a
peculiarly kind providence that in the hour
of death the son should be at the fathers
side.
Mr.. Miner had suffered the loss of three
wives, Dorado Severance of Leyden, Mass,
| Sarah a. Harrington of Smyrna, y. Y, and
Lucretia b. Davis of Nottingham. He
leaves a widow and three children. He
was united in marriage Sept. IL, 1917 with
Sarah A. Harrington, and of ;his union two
children were born, Sidney o. Miner of
Brattleboro and Mary Adella MRS. Chas.
Boynton), of RoXbury, Mass. OF the
union with Lucretia b. Davis was born
| Sylvester Z. Miner
Mr.. Miner was united in marriage with
Maria Parker May 20, 1854, who survives
him. Between Mr.. and Mrs. Miner ex-
listed the tenderest affection, and their mar
red life has been an ideal one. OF the
Methodist church Mr.. Miner had long been
an honored member, holding position on
its official board, sustaining the public ser
vices by his presence, and contributing to
its treasury with the liberality which al
ways characterize his deeds. Mr.. Miner S
age was - years.
The sympathy of the whole community
goes forth to the bereaved widow and chill
dren in their sorrow. The funeral services
were held at o'clock this afternoon al
the Guilford street residence, Rev. A. j.
Hough officiating.

Miner, the University of Vermont pitch
er, recently shut out the Farnham, P. O.,

hit or run. Thirteen men struck out.
Miner was the University of Vermont
pitcher few seasons ago.
The Brattleboro Amateurs won another
game from the Esteyvllles Saturday, the
score being 10 to Is. The contest was
very interesting because of the hard hitting
and the closeness of the score, which was
tied by Esteyville in the seventh inning.
Phenomenal catches were made in the out
field by Burnett and Allen.
P. P. Woodbury's horse, Prince Phillip,
won races on both days of the meet at
Northampton last week. The North
ampton Herald says that Mr.. Woodbury.
was popular with the crowd. "His horse
would not have been backed heavily on its
appearance alone, but horse and driver
won great favor by the beautiful way in
which the three straight heats were taken.
The old horsemen declared that those heats
made up horse race worth seeing"

 Their HAnds:

NEW YORK, Sept 29-A special to The Herald from Santiago de Cuba says Vice Consul Hyatt has entered an ener. getic protest in the case of Peter E Riverey, an American planter. nal. treated by the Spanish gusrrillas on his coffee estate, La Esperanza. near San Luis, on the road to Bayamo. During his protest to the Spanish officer in command of the guerrillas against the destruction of his fences and property by the latter's forces Riverey was abused and was led out to be summarilv shot The timely intervention of a Spanish scout, who pleaded with the ofiic and vouched for Riverey's neu- traliry, alone saved him, Even then the guerrillas were so angered that in defiance of the officers orders they bru- tally beat Riverey with their machetes, and before leaving his plantation tore down the American flag waving over his residence, warning him not to dis. play it again.
 All Americans, the guerrillas said, were either mambis or rebel spies, and if not penly aiding the revolution were doing so secretly consequently, they ought all to be shot wherever found by the Spanish troops.
 Riyerey was born in New Orleans. He is of French extraction, and came to Cuba some years ago to assume control of property left him by his grandfather, who died in Martinique He is highly respected by the resident element and is in TO wise suspected of sympathizing with the revolution.
 The Spanish colonel in command at San Luis apologized to Riyerey for the outrage done him and expressed his personal regret at the insolent acts of the guerlillas in the field.
