AT meeting of the football commit
Tee OF the Cony High School Athletic
Association. Monday forenoon. il was
unanimously decided that the football
team should Immediately be ,fisbanded
AS result of this action all the
games OF Cony's schedule are off, ex-
cept a game with Hallowell, Wednes.
day. AS this game is near at hand
and the cancellation of it by Cony
would give Hallowell short notice 10
fill the date. it was decided that a
scrub team composed of players from
the school would play the game as
originally arranged. The team will be
nearly as strong as the regular team
has been and the teams, Wednesday.
VIII be very evenly matched. The game
will be played at P NJ.
The reason for Cony's disbandins
may be summed up in the fact that
several of her best men We're on the
injured list and unable to play and that
her captain had withdrawn from the
team, so that the outlook for the re-
naming games of the schedule, which
Included some hard ones was rather
discOuraging.
1t is regretted that she could not
finish the season, as the games played
to date have been very satisfactory on
the whole, showing Cony to be stronger
this season than last. She has won
four out of five games played.

During the present year 1O7 towns
and cities in Maine notified the secre-
tary of State that were to take adyan-
tage OF the law of 1901 granting to
towns and cities one-half the sum ex-
pended by them in the repairs Of State
roads not exceeding 500, but eight
towns have thus far presented the re-
CURED evidence that they have done
the work and expended the money
Each city or town in order to comply
with the provisions of the law must on
or before the last day Of December SUBJ
NIT to the governor and council a GER
tlficate of the county commissioners of
the county in which said city or town
is located setting forth the fact that
the work of road improvement has
been properly and thoroughly done
When such certificate has been pre-
scented in due and proper form the
governor and council will order the
amount to which the town is entitled
paid from the appropriation of $l5, 600,
which was appropriated for the pur-
pose.
Thus far there has only been paid
from this appropriation the sum of
1886. The sum Of SITE was paid early
III the year for Improvements made in
1901. Eight towns in Waldo county
have been paid the amounts asked for
on account Of work done on their roads
this year. as follows: Belfast, 800:
Frankfort. 800; Jackson, $50: Lincoln

and Council several towns in Knox
county and a few in other counties will
have the proper evidence that they
have complied with the law presented
to the Governor and Council and the
sums due them will be ordered paid.
The towns and cities that have made
application for their shares of the good
roads stipend should see to it at once
that the certificates of their county
commissioners are secured and for
warded to the secretary of State. If
such certificates are not received prior
10 the end of the year the towns or
cities can only hope for reimbursement
by special act of the incoming Legis-
ture which might be difficult to OBJ
tain. There is plenty of money now
in the appropriation to pay 500 to
every town and city that has made APP
pication The officials of the cities
and the selectmen of towns must at
tend to this matter now or else sacri-
| fec their rights in this respect.

Never Another Skate.

Senator Bacon of Georgia is clean
shaven and bald headed. Once, when
a young man, he wore long, flowing
side whiskers. When the roller-skating
craze of fifteen or twenty years ago
struck Georgia Bacon was the crack
skater Of his town. One night he was
out on the floor of the ring making
fancy figures, when two amateurs,
hand in hand, bore down on him. He
tried to escape, but could not.
The two skaters bumped into the
