Manager Murray has made brave
struggle to give Providence a champion
team, but could not prevail against SO
many successive handicaps.
Those who tried the game In New York
and vicinity last season say they will re-
new their efforts next season with big
teams and the cream OF the National
talent. The members Of the latter organ
ixation have heard that kind Of talk be-
fore, and are not in the least alarmed.
The Waterbury Republican says that
the Hartford polo team will be Obliged to
forfeit at least eight games won. owing to
violation of the rules in not paying fines
imposed. According to the Republican,
there are at least three teams that will
insist on the rules being lived up to. they
being Providence, New Haven and Water
bury. The trouble arose over game tnat
the Hartford team played with the New
Haven team in New Haven, Feb. IT, when
Referee George Harrington imposed fine
of $14 on the Hartford, team, which Capt.
Cotter has refused to pay. The rules most
explicitly state that every game won
after fine is imposed shall be forfeited
until the fine is paid. In the succeeding
game Referee Lush asked Cotter for the
fine, but he refused to pay it, and such a
violent transgression !. of the. National
rules It, is asserted by the other mana
gers will not be tolerated.

HOG CHOLERA DEVASTATION.
Forty Moss Of the Insane Hospital Pisssry
Die OF II.

The hog cholera has been working
devastation to certain extent in the
herd of hogs at the Insane hospital
farm. 1t has been manifest in the herd
for over a month, and it is but just
being placed under control
Treasurer Campbell was seen by a
Journal reporter. Monday afternoon.
regarding the matter and he said that
though 1t was not an unusual thing for
the hog cholera to break out in large
herds it was rather more severe in
the present instance than they had
ever had II before.
There is something uncommon about
the disease" remarked Mr.. Campbell.
I'm the great piggery Of c. l. Hood in
Lowell. Mass, where the fancy ones are
bred and where everyx6rt of method
is thought of to keep the hogs healthy,
they have the cholera real often and
every one knows how hard it is to
stop the disease when once it gets
started in the herd.
There has been a certain amount
of hog cholera in this section of the
city anyway, though we cannot ac-
count for it's presence in our modern
piggery where every measure is taken
to insure health and wealth Of fat
to our animals. -~
ITO what extend has it damaged you
thus far?" was the question asked.
1T has not been so bad as many
have imagined who do not know the
facts of the case. but it has been
worse than We wish. Thus far we have
lost perhaps 40 animals. the most of
them being among the younger ele-
msnt, though few of the older ones
have been stricken with it,"
.,How many animals do you keep in
the piggery:'
1--WE can accommodate anywhere
from $50 to 200 hogs in the place and We
keep well stocked. We have stopped
the run of the disease we think by the
aid of fumigation and by the treat
ment of the hogs"
The dead animals have been disposed
of and it is hoped that no further
trouble will be felt by the disease in
that vicinity.

Our reporter recently interviewed a
member of the firm of Bowditch and
Webster on the subject Of fiavoring
extracts. Strictly speaking, vanilla is
an extract, while lemon. rose. orange,
almond. strawberry. pineapple and
banana are essences. The greatest
skill and most labor are required in the
manufacture of vanilla. He says the
firm carries in stock over a 500 worth
of this extract, mature it for one year
before bottling, and have customers
who have moved to other states, but
still send to Augusta for vanilla. The
other essences require careful selec-
ton and skillful manipulation to pro-
duce the finest results. He also says
they have discarded alcohol entirely,
and use only the highest grade Of
cologne spirits in the manufacture of
their extracts and essences. They also
sell raspberry, strawberry, pineapple
and orange juices, which are used in
punches, shrubs and sherbets. Many
more extracts are sold in summer than
winter. This is due to the increased
abundance of milk and eggs as well as
the natural craving for lighter foods
and desserts.
