NOTES OF THE GAME.

Tinda11 is i'll again, but it is ex-
pected that he will be able to umpire
in Kenosha next Sunday. In the
meantime Tanning gave good salts
faction.
Bubser seems to be d hot weather
pitcher, and he was more than a
match for Fowler in the, game Sun
day. Bubser is rapidly making
friends with the Kenosha followers of
the game.
The man IN charge of the park
should arrange to have a little wet
goods for the thirsty fans. Some of
the people who go to see base bali
games don't care to go to a saloon to
get something to clear their throats.
Green Bay comes next Sunday, and
Manager Breen declares that Keno
sha will have to work good and hard
to defeat the wou1d-be state cham
pions. Green Bay has met some of
the strongest teams in the stare, and
has long string of victories to it's
credit.

waukegan Defeated : to 8.

Poor old Waukegan was forced to
swallow bitter pill of defeat at base
ball Tuesday afternoon, when Breen's
Kenosha team cleaned up the Wau-
kegan team by score of Z to 8. The
defeat was made all the more humi1i-
ating by the fact that all Waukegan
was out to witness the fall of it's idol
and also from the further fact that
hundreds of dollars had been wagered
on the result of the game.
1 The ball game was the feature of
the Business Mems picnic and when
the umpire called Cline" a crowd of
over two thousand people had crowd
ed about the diamond to watch what
was supposed to be the great struggle
for the championship of the north
shore. Waukegan had made a proud

Investigating chlcago's Fire Horror.

Building Commissioner Williams, as a
result of the Iroquois theatre fire and
panic in which $50 persons lost their lives,
last week at Chicago issued an order
closing all the public halls, dance halls
and all similar places of public assem-
blage till an inspection has shown that
they are complying with all provisions of
the building ordinance. All the theatres
have already been closed This leaves
only the churches and lodge halls of Chi
cago open for public gatherings As there
are upward of 400 halls in Chicago rang
ing in size from those that will accommo-
date so persons to those with a seating
capacity of 500, this order will affect prob
ably as many persons as the theatre-clos-
ing order. Protests were numerous, but
the building commissioner was infeXible.
He said: Many of these halls are worse
than any theatre in Chicago. Some of
them are put up with no restrictions such
as govern theatres and many of them are
fre-traps of the worst kind"
Inspector Fulkerson said: Il have de-
termined that the fire originated from the
contact of a linen curtain with an in
tensely hot and inadequately protected
flood light. l have determined that the
curtain stuck because a piece of stage
mechanism in normal operation was di-
rectly in the path of the descent of the
fire shield. | know that the fire was
driven under the suspended curtain by the
rush of cold air into the stage when
some one opened the rear doors. I have

Vermont Dalrymen in Session.

The feature of the opening session of
the Vermont Dairymens association
meeting in burlington was the address
by eX-Gov Hoard of Wisconsin. He said
that in his own state the land was for
mery devoted to wheat growing. and
that 60 per cent. of the land valuation
was under mortgage and the land was
worth only about 500 per acre. After
dairying was adopted the mortgages dis
appeared. and the land Is now worth 800
an acre. He gave many helpful hints to
the farmers. At the business session at
the close of the proceedings Wednesday

River Valley Railroad company in
suit against the company for land DANA

Brattleboro had a full-hedged strike on
Wednesday. Eight or ten men employed
by the Brattleboro Ice company cutting
ice on the paper mill pond for the Brat
ueboro Beef company rebelled against a
curtailment in wages when they were
compelled by darkness or other reasons to
stop before a full day was completed.
They signed a paper binding themselves
to joint action. but the company promptly
gave them their walking papers and en-
gagged new hands.
Brattleboro has made handsome
growth in population since the census of
1909 was taken, The figures then for the
entire town were 66i0. Mr.. Newcomb of
Bethel, agent for the Vermont Bible So
ciety, who has made a careful canvass of
the town, has not yet made his footings,
but he has found that the population of
the town exceeds 1000. not including the
patients anu employees of the Brattleboro
Retreat, and there are now 400 or more
people in this institution, or $50 more
than i'm 1900. The total gain of the town
in population in a little over three years
is evidently upwards of 700. and the
present population is not less than 400.

The Spirit Of Winter.

The Spirit Of Winter is with US. max
ing its presence known in many different
waVs sometimes by CHEEKY sunshine
and glistening SHOWS, and sometimes by
driving winds and binding storms To
many people ii seems to take n delight
in making bad things worse, for rheu-
matism twists harder twnges sharper,
catarrh becomes more annoying, and the
many symptoms Of scrofula are developed
and aggravated. There Is not much po-
etry in this. but there is truth. and it is
a wonder that more people don't get rid
of these ailments. The medicine that
cures them--Hood Sarsaparilla-is easily
obtained and there is abundant proof that
its cures are radical and permanent.
