New England League.
AT NEWPORT.

The Brockton- Newport game had a
Donnybrook finish, and Umpire Connolly
narrowly escaped with his life. The
teams were battling for the leadership of
the league, a victory for Brockton tying
in percentage. During the game Connolly
had made a number of decisions that ex-
asperated the spectators, and an under
current of viciousnesS pervaded the at
tendance and needed but IA spark To ig-
mite 1t. An opportunity came in the
ninth. With the score 3 to l in favor of
Brockton, Mills opened with Il home run
and the crowd went wild. Crisham fol-
lowed but died at first. Ellis came next
with two-bagEer and reached third on
Grants single. Hawley was taken from
the bcnch to bat for Foley. who pitched
the game. and the first ball up to him
passed the catcher. Ellis darted for the
plate and Iiawlcy interfered with Shea
in his attempt TO nail Ellis. and was
promptly put out of the game for inter-
fering and Ellis was ordered to return to
third. Ellis run would have tied the
game. Gilbert then flied to Henry and
the victory was Brocktons The ball
had scarcely nestled in Henrys glove
when the spectators leaped from the
bleachcrs and ran wildly toward Con-
molly and the widest confusion followed.
The players and police surrounded Con-
molly and got him TO the grand stand, but
the crowd continued demonstratve and
Connolly escaped to the dressing rooms

the scene. The umpire was finally taken

Life Saved by Hanging.

Charles Peachey, of MarblGhead,
Mass, who has been discharged from
the Salem hospital is the only ran in
the world with mended backbone.
The surgeons had to hang him literally
by the neck in order to mend it. But
they succeeded, and his case is now at
tracing attention. The patient had
been ut the hospital since Oct. "A. All
that he requires now is time in order
to make him as good man as he was
before his back was broken.
The case has been one of great inter-
est from the first. Peachey was pick
ing apples from tree ut the Crownin-
shield farm, when the limb broke and
he fell distance of twenty feet, strik-
ing on his back. Upon examination 1t
was found that his back was broken,
and he was sent to the Salem hospital
In order to reduce the fracture 1t was
necessary to resort to unusual meth
DDS. 1t could not be done with the pa
tient lying in bed or in any other or
binary position. 1t was necessary t.
hang him by the head and neck.
SO suspended in midair, the trunl
was tightly bandaged with strips o.
cotton cloth saturated with plaster o
paris. When this dried his form wa
held and supported firmly. This un
comfortable suit of clothing was no
removed until Nov. Is, when it wa
found that the fractured vertebrate ha,
knit together successfully, The back
bone had been broken right on lin
with the shoulder blade, and the spinn
cord had been lacerated. This injur
had also been healed.
The patient is now able to sit up In
chair. He Is able to move his hea
and arms, but has no control of hi
body below his shoulders yet, owing
the paralysis of the nerves. This, how
ever, will be only temporary.

A Curious Natural Phenomenon.

One of the most curious natural phe-
nomena, and one which has never yet
been explained by the philosophers, is
that In reference to the expansion of
freezing water. The case of water is
a singular exception to all natural laws
of expansion by heat and contraction
by cold which apply in cases of all 9th
er known liquids. When water is
freezing, 1t contracts In bulk down to
the point where the mercury reaches
the reading Of 391a degrees, or ~ de-
grees above freezing, from which point
it slowly expands according to the in
tensity of cold. No other liquid is
known to possess this remarkable prop
erty, except that certain metals ex'
pand slightly In passing from liquid
to a solid state. But If heat be applied
to water after it has cooled down to 8
temperature of 391a degrees-the point
where it Is ready to begin expanding
should greater degree of cold be up
plied-it will Immediately expand b.
| the universal law. But should we low
err the temperature to 30 degrees
| will expand by its own special law
| Another curious point to be noted her
Is thls-the amount Of expansion is a
great in water lowered from 391a de
grees down to 80 degrees as 1t Is Il
water that has been heated so that tn
temperature runs from 1919 to Al dc
grees. These points are certainly cd
and curious and worthy of attention
and experiment.

Only q Common Soldier, and Yet He Laid
Up Fortune.
With simple military honors the old
est and wealthiest enlisted man in the
United States army was buried in the
National cemetery at West Point re-
Gently.
He was Michael eastman, who for
more than 40 years served in the army
service detachment stationed at the mil
itary academy During the past few
years he has lived in Highland Falls,
enjoying the fruits of his long and
faithful service.
On the meager pay and allowance OF
an enlisted man eastman accumulated
a small fortune 1t is figured all the
way from $50, 900 to 100000, no one
knowing the exact amount. The poor
old soldier worked increasingly an6
boarded his little fortune because he
idolized an only child, beautiful young
girl.
| She was educated at Mount St Vim
cent, N. Y, and was afforded every op
portunity to get an excellent education
Last November the young woman died

The death of his daughter was a grea
blow to the old soldier. 1t was unex

Hard to Please,

first term in college exulting in the fact
that he stood next to the head Of his
class. His father was less easily sat

Fell and Laughed.

Elmer F. Butts, aged years. lives
with his parents in Carlisle avenue,
Cincinnati. One afternoon recently he
was playing on the third floor of his
parents home when he climbed on the
window sill Suddenly he lost his bal.
ance and fell to the walk below, a dis
lance of 20 feet. A number of persons
saw the child fall and screamed, which
attracted the attention of the tots
father, who ran down, expecting to find
the mangled corpse of his little one. In
stead he found Elmer sitting up looking
around and laughing in high glee. A
doctor was summoned and after very
careful examination found that the lit
tie one had escaped without an injury.
How this result was achieved is past
comprehension.

something which he had not been ae-

about trying Il on.
But do all he could, the man could
not squeeze the wig on the philosO-

also essayed to convince Franklin,
against the evidence OF his senses, that

here to stay, since Queen Victoria has
conferred the title of sergeant bike

time words are coined when needed to
tersely describe a fact or situation.
About fifty years ago Coleridge delib-

sound Photography.

The reported discovery Of method
of sound photography Is by no means
incredible, since the photography is not
direct and the original sound waves set
I'D a vibration on a drumhead. This
drumhead is in contant with certain
LIQUID in such a way that the resultant
photographs are wondrous geometrica
designs, due to the expansion and vi
bration Of this liquid. But there does
not appear to be any particular value
to the invention, otherwise than as {
mere curiosity. The sounds even from
the same person of the same tones
would never be exactly alike.

His Busy Day.

Thomas Kennedy of Sidney, O., was
arrested one morning recently for
drunkenness. In the afternoon he was
taken before Mayor Nessler and fined
s. and costs. He had no money, but
secured the fine and costs and was re-
leased. Within an hour after being fined
he came back to the mayor and wanted
to be married. He brought his fiancee,
Miss Mary Wilkerson, with him. The
young lady paid for the license and the
mayors charges, and the mayor then
performed the ceremony.
