tai Of 50 for their side and only 27 for the
other fellows
The contest was fearfully and wonder
fully played, abouRding in star plays and
others that were not star. The bright
particular star Of the game was James
Smith who at times essayed the role Of
pitcher for the winning team. Pitcher
smith was in good form and the manner
in which he wound the curves around the
necks Of the astonished Central Vermont
boys was caution, much to the pleasure
Of the spectators and the aforesaid Smith,
and TO the CONSERVATION Of the g. " men.

WOULD PROVIDE CLUB
TO FIGHT THE SALOON
Rev. 7. H. Mitchell Thinks Conditions
Are No Better Now Than
Formerly.

Rev. 7. Il. Mitchell. pastor Of the Pres
byterian church, assailed the license law
vigorously in his sermon at his church last
evening, declaring that the conditions ex-
isting now are no better than they were
under prohibition and reaftirming his be-
lief in the efficiency Of the state control
system. He also said that 1t was his de-
termination to start, the coming fall, club
for young men to counteract the influence
Of the saloon.
Mr.. Mitchell drew his conclusions from
his own observations and those Of others
in the city. He thought that the only diff
ference with former conditions was that
the liquor traffic which hitherto had been
more or less concealed is now held up TO
plain view. Mr.. Mitchell described the
conditions which met his eye on a person
al visit to the saloons Of the city on the
Saturday evening previous. He had taken
trip around to the different places. At
one saloon he counted IS men who entered
in the course of ten minutes, the number
being larger at this place than at any 9TH
er which he visited.
He gave the opinion Of two men, one a
physician and the other delivery clerk
who has occasion to 20 into the homes Of
the city They declared that the condi-
tions are worse than formerly. The ply
sician had voted in favor Of license, but
were the opportunity offered him to pass
his vote again he would vote against the
present law.
Mr.. Mitchell thought that the only cor
rect solution OF the difficulty Is to enact a
law which will eliminate the principle Of
personal gain,
The club idea was advanced by him as a
eounteraction Of the Influences Of the sa-
loon, which is now in power, club where
young men should have an opportunity to
assemble and enjoy themselves without
the debasing influence Of the saloon. He
proposed to interest the deacons and mem
bers of his church in the movement and he
hoped that by the coming fall there would
be club OF this nature started here in
Barre. lie would be willing to head the
movement.

Americas cup was ! disappointment
At the finish a seven knot easterly wind

are almost without significance.
