interest ng game of brseball between
the MITCHELL Hill and White Cross
teans. The former won by a score
of 80 to 20.
The game was played on Mitchell
Hill grounds where a large crowd
had gathered TO witness the same.
There was DO di.pu,,ng, which, OF
course, made it more edjoyab'e to
all. Such conduct speaks we'll tor
their instructors, aud also proves
both teams to be composed Of gen.
tlesnen.
Mr.. Ubert Smith Of the NJ. II
team was first to the hat. Soon
after taking his position he flew the
bali over right fielder, and, scoring
on same, received hearty aud contin.
nal a%pplauses from the spectators
Nh. Smiths example was followed
by Others, adding several home
rounds to the M. H score.
The game was highly enjoyed by
all aud especially by the young la
dies who were so ga':an.ly enter
tanned by the neighboring 'schuol
master"

BRIGHT PROSPECTS.

For Early Beginning Of Work on the Bsnning
ton and North Adams Electric Railway.
C. Q. Richmond, one of the incor-
porators Of the Bennington and North
Adams Street Railway Company, with
Civil Engineer Daniel #. Bates Of
Pownal walked over the proposed
route from North Pownal to Williams
town Friday, and considered the ques-
ton of routes for the entire line.
The chief question in connection
with the line has been whether it shall
pass through North Pownal or Pow
nal Centre on the way from Pownal to
Bennington. IL has been practically
decided that the most feasible route is
from Pownal to Bennington via Pow
al Centre. If this is done, however,
a spurline will be built to North Pow
nal, so that all three of the Pownals
will have trolley communication with
North Adams.
The trouble with route through
North Pownal is the steep grade be-
tween there and Bennington, which
would make the running of cars diff
cult.
The route from the Vermont state
line to Bennington via PowDal Centre
is l0l miles, and the length of the
branch to North Pownal will be three
miles, making total length of l3l
miles for the road.
It is now expected that complete
survey of the route will be made, and
that the work of securing rights OF
way will be taken up/
The fact that the bill permitting elec-
trio street railways TO carry freight
has passed the Massachusetts legisla-
ture and is now law will prove OF
great benefit to the proposed road to
Bennington, as considerable of this
kind Of traffic is expected from the
district through which the road is to
pass.

of a key, and that the charge nurse,
and no other, be possessed Of a key,
And We would also reconmend that
the water be made to enter over the
top at the foot Of the tub and be pro
tected over the top Of the pipes by
meta hood with semi-circulsr wire
netting with Que half inch mesh ex-
tending from the hood to the bottom
of the bath tub and securely fastened
to the tub BY this arrangement none
but the charge nurse could supervise
bathing unless the key was given up
to another person. The patients could
not turn the faucets, nor could they
get injured on the pipes as they pro
ject over the top Of the tub, being
protected by the metal bood nor get
burned by inAowing hot water, bsing
protected by the wire screen. The
flow of either bot or cold water would
at all times be 10 plain sight thus
adding the most important safeguard.

RIGHT LEG BROKEN.
In Trying to Control Pair Of Young Horses Il.
II. Shields Injured.

Howard Hart Shields met with a
serious accident Monday afternoon
that will confne him to the house for
several weeks. He was out driving
with a pair of young horses, accom-
panied by his coachman.
The colts became frightened and Mr.
Shields, who was driving, partially
lost control Of them. He reined them
into a fence and in the mix up which
occurred both bones in the right leg
we're broken below the knee. The
coachman was not injured nor the rig
damaged.
DR. Putnam who is attending thinks
it will be from six weeks to two
months before he viii be around. Dr.
H. S. Goodall assisted in reducing
the fracture.
