-Capt. A. c. Fry of the steamer
Errand Boy invited the public to
become his guests on a trip down
the river Thursday. A large num-
her availed themselves of the invi-
tation. The boat with the barge
in tow ran down to the Cedars and
back stopping at the Cedars long

Mrs. Phil Casey and children
left on Thursday for Whatcom,
Wash, where Mr.. Casey is now To-
Gated. She was accompanied by
her sisters, Misses Margaret and
Helen Hood. Mr.. and Mrs. Casey
have sold their home here to w. l..
Jacobs, and will make their future
home on the coast. Their many
friends here deeply regret their
departure.
The one factor that stands in
the way of Bonr ers FerIy's pro-
gress now is lack of fire protection.
Several business enterprises have
been turned down here in the past
few months on account of lack of
fire protection. III the estimation
of the HERALD this method of
keeping out competition is too
hazardous to be good policy.

The Colby Commons.

The first meal at the revived Colby
commons was served, Wednesday noon.
Each of the four fraternities who have
Joined in the plan have a dining room
for their exclusive use and one is also
pi divided for the non-fraternity men.
The rooms are so arranged that each
can be easily reached from the kitchen
so that there will be little trouble in
serving them. Miss Shackley will have
general supervision over the kitchen
but most of the work outside the cook
ing will be done by students who wish
to work for their board.
A line parlor has been fitted up FOR
the use of the men and is provided with
n piano which has now become almost
a necessity with the college men. The
college will supply board here for $3.50
per week and the experiment will be
watched with great deal of interest.
1t is believed that it will soon become
popular with the men and that it will
save them a good bit on their board
bills. This will take the place of all
the boarding clubs, that have been in
vogue for several years past, with one
exception, the Dekes, this fraternity
being the only one to have chapter
house of it's own and prefering to con-
tinue the old custom.

now on hand to commence the work of
the year with the first chapel, this

There is some good sport promised to
those who like it for the coming winter.
Last. year basketball made it's appear
ance here and while at first little in
terest was taken, during the last part
good games We're played. The attend
ance was large and it was one of the
leading amusements. The Board OF
Trade managed the meets and made
quite little sum from the undertake
ing. Supt. Hazard of the shoe factory
was really the promoter and much of
his time away from his duties was de-
voted to it's promotion. Again this
year the Board Of Trade will furnish
the lovers of the game with more of it.
They have fitted up the cloak room
and will add lockers for the dressing
room. Both Mr.. Hazard and Mr..
STAFFORD are well up in the game ard
last evening a practice game was held
at the Coliseum. 1t is the intention TO
have a purely local team for the reg
ular team, made up of the best play
ers in the city and during the winter
months to have games every week.
There will probably be several smaller
teams organized so that two games
can be played each evening. Another
practice game will be played, Friday
evening. and those who desire to play
are asked to come and try. Already
some plans are being made. 1t is
hoped that the Gardiner team can open
the season with game with the
Brockton team on Thanksgiving day
and also arrange a game with the
Salem, Mass. Y. NJ. G. A. team on the
same trip. 1t is also hoped to meet
all the leading teams in the State, in
Guiding college. association and Y. NJ.
G. A. teams. There is a good opening
for lots of good clean sport and the
game will probably receive good sup
port.

THIS CAN'T BE so.
Fairfield Reported Protesting Money
Because Lowell Team Won.

1t is understood that Fairfield objects
to Watery lille having the $3.50 for which
the challenge series was played. on the
ground that the final and deciding
game was played by the Lowell team in
the Lowell suits and one that mad no
part in the series up to this game. But
if these are the grounds of the obJec-
ton, they seem to be rather fiimsy TO
Waterville people. There was no agree
ment as to players for the series, each
team having the privilege OF getting
what men it was able to secure and pay.
Both have been free in their choice of
players all through the season. ~
At the close of the New England
season Fairfield secured what players
from that league she thought she need
ed, and got three. Waterville hadxRD
kick coming, even before Fairflehi
pitched Piatt, ma; who was supposed
to be one of the best in the country be-
fore he came. That he was a bitter dis
appointment, is another matter. Fair
field hired him for a good one, what
ever the result. And all through the
season she has played whatever men
she has cared to try.
needed from the New England League,
and the fact that she needed more than
Fairfield. does not count. And another
thing: -Four of the old players We're in
uniform and in the game that decided
the series, and would have been used
had there been no need of them. The
lowell team was just as much a Water
vile team as the old one that had just
been released and Fairfield had the
privilege and opportunity of securing
the Holyoke team had she cared to.
1t has been understood all the season
that the sky limit ruled, and because
Waterville was forced to get pretty
near to it by the action of her own
players, seems little reason for Fair
field protesting the money, now.
Then another thing: Waterville did
not get the Lowell team because she
wanted it, or just to beat Fairfield
obliged to get whole team somewhere
at short notice and the Lowell aggre-
cation seemed the most available at
that time. If the old men had behaved
themselves and played ball, there would
have been no change and the fight
would have been made to the finish
with the same team. Fairfield has Ger
tainly had free hand in the choice of
men all through the season without
single objection, and she ought to be
willing to allow Waterville the same
priv ilege, especially under such circum-
stances as existed, last Saturday night
