Goddard Forfeits the Game.

Monday afternoon the Academy team
crossed bats with Goddard Seminary on
the campus.
Both teams played well and it was an
interesting game up to the last half OF
the sixth inning. The score stood to 3.
St. Johnsbury was at the bat and had
| two men on bases and one out. Harry
Randall, on third, had worked down
from the plate in anticipation of
an opportunity to run in home, when the
ball was thrown to Sd baseman, Lamb.
In the scramble to make himself "safe"
Randall hit Lambs foot, which he
claimed was lame, and presumably hurt
it little. In a fit of anger Lamb struck
his opponent upon the back of the neck
with the ball in his hand several heavy
blows. This caused an immediate rush
to the third base from all parts of the
field.
Umpire Heath ruled Lamb out Of the
game, as under the League rules he was
bound to do. The Goddard captain
refused to have the rule enforced and go
on with the game. Very naturally the
Acadcmys did not care to have such
playing continue and under the rule of
the League the game stands forfeited to
st. .Johnsbury as with score of 8 to 0.
1t is very much to be regretted that
ball game should be terminated thus and
the disposition shown by the Goddards,
especially by Lamb, deserves the severest
censure. Following is the complete
score.

Carriage Accident.

Sunday afternoon Mr.. and Mrs. Nathan
Parker of Lyndonville called upon their
son, Ralph Parker, and had just started
down Hastings hill when tug broke at
a waterbar, and the horse ran part way
down the hill. The road wasn't wide
enough for him and the carriage was
brought in collision with the Guyer
brick tenement house. Mrs. Parker was
thrown out. The horse then turned back
up the hill and on Mt Pleasant street the
wreck of the carriage was completed
and Mr.. Parker brought in violent con.
tact with the earth. He was most
severely injured about the head and face.
Mrs. Parker was considerably bruised
and one hip was badly hurt. Both were
taken to their sons residence on Spring
street and Mrs. Parker is now there
under medical attendance.

A Successful Class.

Last Wednesday night closed most
successful series of dancing lessons given
by Prof. Elmore of Montpelier, to class
of about 70. Both Mr.. and Mrs. Elmore
have become very popular with the
young people and an evidence of this was
the presentation to them OF an ornamen-
tai vase, on the closing evening of the
school. Mr.. Elmore thanked the class
heartily for the gift which both he and
Mrs. Elmore prize very highly as they
have been greatly pleased with their class
work here.
1t is hoped and expected that they will
return next year and conduct class,
when they will be cordially welcomed.

spoke few words of welcome to the
Knights, after which benediction of the
Blessed Sacrament was held, Rev. w. l.

brant. One of the most pleasant thing.
to be remembered in connection with the
organization of this Council was the
banquet, which was given at the Avenue

After the banquet, about $50 in tn,
evening, the third degree was exempli6et
on all the candidates by State Deputy
Supreme Knight Thomas w. Moloney O

JUDGE HARALOONl
 OF ALABAMA
Calls the Baptist Convention to
 Order.
NORTHERN MADE PRESIDENT
No Successor to pr, Whitsitt the Re- tiring President of the Southern Theological Seminary, Has
 Yet Been Made

Louisville, Ky, May 12-Amid a sound of voices like the voice of many waters. the gavel of Judge Jonathan Haralson, of the supreme court of Alabama called to order the forty-fourth sesion of the fifty fourth year of the Southern Baptist con vention, this being the eleventh tinie he has performed that duty.
 A considerable portion of the morning session was taken up with the enrolment of delegates according to states, and as soon as this was concluded the election of officers was taken up.
 Governor Northen, of Georgia, was elected president of the convention by ac- clamat ton.
 The convention then elected the follow ing viee-presidents: Ex-Governor J. II. Eagle, of Arkansas; Dr. R. c. Buckner of Texas; Charles L. Cooke, of Virginia, and Dr. F. H. Kerfoot, of Kentucky. The pres ent secretaries, auditor and the treasurer were reelected.
 Then came the address of welcome by Rev. Varter Helm Jones, pastor of Broad way Baptist church. which was responded to by Rev. H. s. D. Mallory, of Alabama The night session was devoted mostly to routine business.
 No successor to Dr. w. H. Whitsitt as president of the Southern Baptist Theologi- cal seminary was elected tonight, nor was his successor to the chair of history named. The trustees of the seminary, after having been in session for three hours, vainly try ing to get up to the point of balloting on the presidency, adjourned until 9:90 o'clock tomorrow morning, when the whole matter will be opened again. The point of con- tention is whether a president shall be elected or chairman of the faculty, but the sentiment among the delegates seems to be that there is no real difference be- tween a president of a seminary and chairman of a faculty and if man is elected, it will probably be as president.

LOST BOTH LEGS
Negro Run Over by an Outgoing Freight
 on the L. 6 N.

A negro man named Alexander was run ever by an L. & N. freight train at the Fourteenth street crossing late yesterday afternoon. His body was badly bruised and both legs were cut off below the knee.
 The train was section four of No. 15, in charge of Conductor Hottings, and was just pulling out of the city.
 IL is supposed that the negro had gotten under freight car and was attempting to steal ride. When the accident was dis co, cred the injured man was placed switch engine and taken back to the Eigh- teenth street crossing where he was put in an ambulance and sent to Warner & Smiley's undertaking establishment. It was found there was some chance for his recov- cry and after cutting off the mangled legs he was removed to Wilson & Browns in- firmary.
 Last night the injured negro was rest ing easy and it is thought that he will re- cover.

A GLOBE TROTTER
Who is Required to Push a Wheel

Quite a large crowd gathered in front of the government building late yesterday af- ternoon to listen to the story of Gus Mitchell, globe trotter,'' who had just arrived in the city.
 Unlike the average "globe trotter,'' Ritchell bore evidence of having 'trotted," if appearances count for anything. Ac- cording to his story he has set out to walk from New York to Vancouver, B. C.. He is required to push wheebarrow the en- tire distance, and must not sleep under shelter nor beg, but is allowed to receive voluntary contributions.

 When the train left the scene of the wreck a man named Street, living in the city, was lying unconscious in the wreck.
 The passengers could give no correct story of the werck and the number of dead and injured was not known to any of them. It was generally believed that six passen- gers were killed.
 At midnight the railroad officials here had received no information as to the num- Der killed oh injured or the list of names Shortly before midnight train bearing nurses and doctors was sent to the scene of the wreck.

pound is by far the best spring remedy hard-working person can take"
 Mrs. Osborn has always been distinguish ed in society for the beauty of her cos- tunes. No one knows the opinions and habits of women of ample means and op- portunities better than she. She says that her friends who always insist on having the best, will have nothing to do with any remedy but Paine's Celery Compound. And this is not surprising when one stops to consider the thousands of letters that arc constantly being received by the proprie- tors of this great remedy, and by news p3pers and medical journals, as well as from men and women in every walk of life, all telling one experience: the immediate relief and perfect cure effected by it.
 The best physicians openly indorse and recommend Panes Celery Compound, authorizing the public use of their state- ments that Paine's Celery Compound, in case after case, cures rheuma tism and kindred diseases, puriies the blood regu- lates the stomach, liver, bowels and kid neys, and rejuvenates the fagged-out or diseased nervous system when everything else fails.

THE PRESIDENTIAL PARTY
Will Visit Natural Bridge, Virginia, To,
 day.

Hot Springs, Va, Va, May 12.-The presidential party will break its visit here tomorrow by trip to Natural Bridge, Va.
 It is expected that about two hours will be given to sightseeing and the party will return in time for dinner.
 The president is still resting quietly. To- day he walked about the roadways with Secretary Gage, both in the forenoon and again after lunch. His medicinal bath under the direction of Dr. Rixey, occurred during the morning. Official business has been very light, the signing of some com missions for postmasters and military pro- motions being the extent of the duties today.
 Mrs. McKinley's indisposition has kept the president somewhat closely to his rooms. The change to this high altitude effected her for a day so, but she is feeling so well tonight that the run to Natural Bridge at which had been held in abeyance was decided upon.
