ANNUAL GENTLEMEN's NIGHT.
Woman's Club Celebrates the Occasion
with Delightful Reception.

The Brattleboro Woman's club cele-
brated the occasion of its annual
"gentlemen's night" Wednesday even
ing with delightful reception in the
Brooks House. Members of the club
and their friends were present in large
numbers and the event proved one of the
most pleasant of the many social func-
tions for which the Woman's club has
been responsible. The dining room and
parlors of the hotel were lavishly deco
rated with carnations, smilax and ever
green, bouquets being placed in all the
windows as well as in other suitable
places, making the scene one of UNI
usual beauty. From s until o'clock
reception was held. Miss Susan E.
Clark, president of the club, received,
assisted by Mrs. w. N. Thompson and
Mrs James p. Elmer, vice presidents,
and Miss Elene Foster of Boston. The
following young women acted as ush-
ers: Miss Marguerite Tucker, Mrs
Charles A. Boyden, Mrs. John R. Ryd-
err Mrs. Frederic C. Adams Miss Pearle
Gibson, Miss Edith ]. Greene. Miss
Mabel Hunt and Miss Minnie Merrill.
After the reception the company adj
journed to the dining room where
delightful entertainment was given by
Miss Elene Foster and Miss Mary
Howe. Miss Foster gave selections
from James Whtcomb Riley Eugene
Field and other poets. concluding with
an original piece entitled THE Demon
strator" Her work was entirely free
from affectation, and she took her audi
ence by storm by her finished rendi-
ton of the different numbers. Miss
Howe gave a generous and varied as
sortment of vocal selections. Her
beautiful voice is too well known in
Brattleboro to need comment, yet many
thought she never had been heard to
such good advantage.
Following the entertainment lunch
was served IN the reception room
which was handsomely decorated in
keeping with the other rooms Taken
as whole the event was one of I'M
usual enjoyment to all present and
much credit is due those who had 1t
in charge. namely, Mrs. S. o. Miner,
Miss Emma J. Gregg, Miss Mary Cor
don, Miss Izetta Stewart, Mrs. F. w.
Putnam, Miss Geraldine NJ. Merrill, !

NOTES ON SPORTS.

The Brattleboro Athletic associa-
ton has appointed the following bas-
ket ball committee: G. +. Mann
George II. Thompson, Patrick Fer
ritter Frank Eckels and Edgar Saun-
ders.
The Y. NJ. C. A. second team will
play against the Hinsdale aggregation
tomorrow evening. Hinsdale IS be-
coming considerable of n basket ball
town and it's team is developing rap
idly.
The High school has two promising
basket ball players in the Pierce broth
ers, Milton and George. Both are large
enough to take care of themselves in
the most strenuous play and also have
good eyes for the basket.
Roy Fisher, who played shortstop on
the Y. NJ c. A. baseball team last
summer, is a member of the Gushing
academy basket ball team which de-
feated University of Vermont the first
Of the week. The Boston Globe on
Monday contained a picture of the
Gushing team a
A good game may be expected Tues-
day evening when the Massachusetts
Agricultural college team, commonly
known as the Amherst "Aggies," will
appear against the local Y. M. c. A.
The Aggies only lost to U. " NJ. Tues
day evening by only one point so
ought to be able to put up an inter-
esting fight here.
In his long experience at the game of
basket ball Howe has never put up as
fast game as he has done this sea-
son In addition to his accurate pass
ing, which makes him great factor
in the team work, he has developed
enough sand to hold his own with al
most any center. Howe's experience
in foot ball last fall must have helped
him wonderfully

Badly Treated at Saratoga.

The local Y. NJ. C. A. basketball team
was defeated at Saratoga, n. Y, last
Friday evening by the Satterlee Hose
Co, aggregation of Fort Edward, N.
Y, the score being 231S at the end of
the second half. Brattleboro led at
the end of the first half and the team
is credited by the Saratoga papers with
having played an exceptionally clean
and brilliant game. One of the papers
said in its account: "as the game pro-
crossed the Vermont team gained adj
mirers because of the manner in which
the Fort Edward umpire treated it."
In another account the following state
ment was made. Close critics of the
game insist that the Brattleboro boys
outplayed their opponents and would
have won but for unfavorable decisions
by one of the officials of the game"
