Base Ball.
Home Team of Colleglans Proposed


A popular movement is being made look
ing toward the organization of base ball
team here to open the season about June
%, 1t is proposed to make it up wholly of
college men. Among the institutions from
which it is expected players will be Sc
cured are Brown university, Dartmouth,
University of Maine, University of NIich;-
gan and University of Vermont. In each
of these colleges are excellent players,
known to local people, who believe a team
so made up will be strong enough to make
its way among other professional players.
1t is proposed to sell locally 100 tickets at
IS each, thus making a fund of $500 to
start with. Harry P. Conway, of H. d.
Ryders law office, started out a day or two
gao to see if the people would take the
tickets, and in one day out of % people
seen 20 subscribed, which argues well for
the success of the scheme. George Bow
telle is now circulating the paper and with
good success. The movement if rightly
handled ought to be an advantage to the
place.

The thriving town Of Midway, Mass,
has no more reputable citizen than Capt.
John P. L. Grant.
Nearly sixty-thrss years old, his has been
an eventual life.
Because Of ambitious labor and arduous
exposure as an officer In the late war, and
later as y. S, mail carrier, he became a
sufferer from wrecked digestion, loss OF
memory and keenest OF rheumatic pains.
His disease was stubborn.
1t resisted skillfM doctoring; various re-
commended remedies; also treatment at a
medical institute in Boston.
This is changed now, and to-day Capt.

travellers Don't Like the Music of the

The 9Th shoot of the Bellows Falls Gun
,lub was held last Friday afternoon on Dris-
lanes field and was largely attended by
members of the club and visitors. The
practice begins to show with the members
in better average score than at first, and
interest in the pastime increases. During
the past week a large and well-arranged
club house has been arranged in the imme-
date vicinity of the traps, and, having
broad piazzas and plenty of chairs, it gives
an excellent opportunity for the guests of
the club to enjoy an afternoon in a pleas
ant manner. The club now numbers 80
members, They have a lease of the field
for four years. NJ. H. Ray is president
and Dr. Knight vice president. An un-
pleasant feature is that the traps are so 10.
Gated. necessarily, that the highway to
Westminster is Just over the hill, about 100
rods distant, and some people claim to
have had teams hit by the spent shot. No
harm was done, but if it could be avoided
the passers by would feel little safer. 1t
is asserted that the shot used could not
pierce a sheet of paper at that distance,
much less do any harm.

The school board has secured President
Whitman of the Columbian university
Washington, d. c., to make the address at
the graduating exercises of the High school
in June. He is to speak at Vermont Acad-
envy the evening before. Principal Craw-
ford gives an address the Sunday evening
before graduation in place of the usual bac-
calaureate sermon.
The abstract of the grand list which has
lust been filed at the town clerks office
shows the town to have 1863 taxable polls
as compared with 1859 last year, an in
crease of 104. The village shows 1895 as
compared 1908 last year, or an increase of
90. The increase outside is probably due
largely to the starting up of the wooden
mills at Saxtons River and the return of
employees who had sought employment else
where for the last two years. The ques-
ton is often asked how many residents we
now have in the village of Bellows Falls,
and the closest estimate can probably be
made from the increase of polls in the vii
lage since the 1890 census which gave us
3082 population. The increase of both the
polls and school children indicate almost
the same number, viz, 4137 as the present
population of the village.

Street improvements.
Plans which VIII Add Both Beauty
and Unity.

The street commissioner has been ar
ranging for improvements in the way of
decorations at different points in our
streets which will be welcomed by all.
Triangular flower beds are being placed at
the intersections of a number of streets,
particularly at the corner of South and At
kinson streets and of Green and School
streets. At the fountain at the foot of Ter
race hill a great improvement is being
made by enclosing the fountain in flower
bed, and this year the water is to be kept
playing, as it has not been for some years
1t is expected that as soon as the general
condition of all the streets is improved by
cleaning out cutters, etc, which is now in
progress, large job will be done in widen
sidewalk on the west side the whole length.
This will necessitate the removal of a cor
ner of Frost block, the piazza and office of
Lowell 4 Carpenter, and the entertainments
front of the residences of William Flavin
and Honora Sullivan. This will straighten
the west side and allow walk up by the
new Maynard block. new and substan-
tial rail is being put on the east side of
Westminster street, all the way from the
top of the hill to William Hapgood's place,
which is to be painted. The wall there
over the railroad has been partially re-
built,

The Girls nln.hed TOO.

Visitors at the World fair Of 1898
will recall the Indian exhibit or en-
campment on the shore Of the south
pond. One of the tents or wigWams
was occupied by an athletic and fine
looking but somewhat taciturn specimen
Of young Indian manhood as his own
particular home and while it was open
at all proper hours for the inspection of
visitors he resented any approach to i'm
pertinent curiosity.
A bevy of young women dropped into
his tent one day before his usual hour
for opening it and found him sewing a
rent in blanket.
"See how he bushes, - exclaimed one
of the visitors. I'VE have caught him
doing squaw's work. =
Why, that's his natural color, " gig
gled another "He always bushes"
