SPORTING NOTES.
Evidence Against PeeIer Patron, Alleged
Rnuer

FNHiACis
The American Horse Breeder continues
to devote a large amount of space to
Peeler Patron, the alleged ringer who is
said to have won over $1,000 in races in
New England in 1902, 1908 and 1904
There is strong evidence to show that
the real Peeler Patron was bred by the
Cooper stock farm of Birmingham, Mich,
and sold as a three-year-old gelding to
George j. Warner of that town. Mr..
Warner, after three seasons of training,
found that the horse could not go faster
than 2.40 and sold him to A. e. Richard
son of Saginaw, Mich. who disposed of
the gelding to Thomas Walsh, a grocer,
in Bay City. The next sale Is said to
have been to a man in Detroit for driv-
ing purposes. Mr.. Warner signs a sworn
statement that he saw Peeler Patron in
Mr.. Walsh's stable at Bay City in 1903, at
the time when Peeler Patron brought
east by Mr.. Richardson was winning big
money over New England tracks.
The inference is that Richardson sub
stituted a fast ringer for Peeler Patron,
sold the real horse of that name to Walsh,
and then brought the ringer east under
the guise of Peeler Patron. Fred Rud-
dock of Saginaw, a horseman, says that
for $1,000 to cover expenses he will prove
Peeler Patron a ringer by furnishing a
full pedigree of the horse. ]. M. Clement
of Birmingham says the horse is well
known by a Saginaw race track man. r.
III. Wen of Pawtucket, r. l., bought the
horse of Richardson and raced him last
season with great success. 1t will be re-
membered that Peeler Patron took first
in the 2.10 race for a purse of 5000 at the
Valley Fair, winning with ease. Peeler
Patrons mark is now 2.09A. Mr.. Wen is
anxious to have the identity OF the gelding
cleared up and win Withhold entries from
some of the early closing events to await
developments.

The league game started off snappily
and in the first three innings each side
was retired in short order. In the fourth
inning Brasor and Brooks singled, Ferri-
ter lost Harwood's throw to catch Kaine
and the bases were full. r. Allen slashed
a long two Dagger to left, sending two
scores across the plate, and Cooley's
single added two more The next three
men were out in order. Tucker was the
first Crescent to cross the plate, when,
in the fifth inning, he reached first on
l.. Aliens error, was advanced base on
Brooks's throw to catch him at first and
completed the circuit on Stoltes single.
At the end of the seventh inning the
score was Al and the Athletics were
favorites. In the eighth with one out
Stolte singled and stole second. Little
HARDWOOD slammed the ball to deep left
centre field for two Dagger, bringing
Stolte home. HARDWOOD scored later on
Ferriter's safe hit over first base. and the
standing was 4 to 3. In the ninth the
Athletics brought their total to 5, L.
Allen hitting safely and stealing second,
and then advancing on Stafford's out at
first and an unsuccessful attempt to
catch Brasor at the same sack In the
last half of the ninth Smith, first up for
Crescents, banged the ball to left field
for a double. L. Allen made bad work
of fuckers grounder. Dunleavy was
thrown out at first. 1t was up to Pitcher
Ellis u VIII MS OWL game anu ne re-
sponded with a single to right field and
Smith trotted home. Ellis was out at
second, Brasor dropping Stolte's fly, but
throwing to Kaine. However, Tucker
had scored and tied the game, HARDWOOD
biffed a singing one winch probably
would have been safe and have ended the
game, but the ball struck Umpire Darcy
and HARDWOOD was out.
The tenth inning opened with the tenn
peratures at fever heat. Kaine hit to
HARDWOOD, who lined the ball to first like
a shot. Z. Allen hit to short left field,
but Stolte kept going for the ball and
cOrralled it. Cooley was out, Stolte to
Ferriter. March was first up for Cres-
cents. He drew the first pass of the
game. Ferriter bumped an easy one to
Cooley, who turned toward second. with
a good chance for a double play, but he
threw a low swift one, which rolled deep
into centre field and before Riley could
return it March had streaked across the
pan and 1t was all over.
All Of the outfielders made pretty
catches. In the seventh, with Stafford on
second Brooks swatted the spheroid for
what would be home run ordinarily, but
Tucker was playing a deep field between
left and centre, and pulled 1t down.
Stolte's catches Of hits over his head were
remarkable. r. Allen led the entire field
with the ash, having two singles and a
double to his credit The batters had a
line on the umpire, who was hit twice by
batted balls

What Constitutes Eligibility In the
Y. M. c. A.

There has existed some misunderstood
ing as to what constitutes a persons
eligibility to membership in the Young
Mems Christian association, which makes
IL advisable to state the position of the
organization i'm this respect. For active
membership II is required that a man
should be a member of an evangelical
church in order thus to insure the per-
manent religious character of the in
stitution and prevent it's becoming mere
ly secular club. The test of religious
belief is that adopted some years ago
at a convention held in Portland which
has come to be known as the Portland
Test" This test maintains the Holy
Scriptures to be the only infallible rule
of faith and practice" 1t also requires
that one believe in the Lord Jesus
Christ, the only begotten of the Father,
King of Kings and Lord of Lords, in
whom dwelleth the fulness of the God
head bodily; who was made sin for us.
who knew no sin, bearing our sins in
his own body on the tree, and as the
only name under heaven given among
men whereby we must be saved"
Under this general statement 1t is
hoped that all who are eligible will ac-
cept the invitation to enjoy to the full
the privileges of the Young Mems Christ
ian association of Brattleboro. Associate
membership is open to all boys and
young men of good moral character and
entities them to all the privileges.
The board Of nine directors is made
up of active members with the under
standing that each church represented
in membership shall also be represented
on its board.

Lighting Problem.
The first regular meeting of the village
bailihs since they organized was held
Friday night in the office of Village At
torney Schwenk and was a protracted
session, lasting from to IL o'clock. All
the members were present. The petition
OF citizens, presented at the previous
meeting, asking the board to reappoint
70. s. Hall chief of police was taken up,
and 1t was voted to get along without
chief. Under the act of the last legis-
lature bailiffs have the right to appoint a
chief of police, the Jurisdiction of that
officer to extend throughout the state.
The bailiffs reasoned that all officers I'm
the pay of the village should confine
their service to the village. The APP
pointment of a night Waterman was post
poned until tonight, when a special meet
Ing will be held.
1t was voted to pay the Waterman at
the same rate per hour as heretofore.
20 cents but to limit his hours from
in the evening to in the morning, which
would make his pay $3.50 a night. He
will be required to attend police court
hearings of prisoners arrested by him
without pay for time so spent. All fees
are to be turned into the village treasury,
as during the past year.
Several matters connected with the fire
department were considered. Chief En-
gineer Sanders called up the various re-
concentrations made by him in the viii
lage report and they were acted upon.
1t was voted to lay a new floor in the
steamer house. to paint the hydrants and
| fire alarm boxes and to put a new cover
| ing over the cistern on Prospect Hill
Attention was called to the fact that the
side walls of the steamer house are
spreading. The bailiffs inspected the
house Saturday and decided to employ a
| contractor to make the necessary repairs.
| The Estey steamer, which the village
voted to buy, will be taken as soon as the
Estey company finishes the work of put
| ting 1t in first class condition and has IL
| inspected.
The question OF a contract for street
lighting was taken up and 1t was decided
to submit list of questions to the officers
OF various villages the size of Brattle-
boro to determine whether this village
Is paying too much for its lights. The
| arc light at the top Of the Linden street
hill will be changed to the other side OF
the street to avoid the big tree which at
present cuts off large part OF Hight
| The matter Of establishing a reservoir
on the Valley Fair grounds was con-
sidered but no action on 1t was taken
a contract was awarded 20 Andrew Hor-
ton to lay a 6-inch sewer from Canal street
through the new street which has beer
laid out near the old Estey homestead.
1t was decided to have the series Of
band concerts, for which the village mad,
an appropriation of $500. begin Tuesday
May %. This is somewhat earlier thar
usual, but by beginning early cold weather
will be avoided at the end of the season
Minor business was also transacted.

Two Sides to the Question.
Isl. Albans Messenger.l

There are two sides to that contro-
versy as to the wisdom of establishing
a state consumptives' home in Brattle-
boro, and, so far as The Messenger can
see, The Brattleboro Phoenix makes out
a strong case for the project in an article
published elsewhere in this issue. At all
events, we are all agreed that some place
somewhere should be provided for the
treatment of these unfortunate people.
Why does not that duty come to such
communities as may have peculiar OPP
portunity and means put in their way, as
Brattleboro has, more especially If, as the
carried on without endangering the health
of the people Of Bratleboro themselves or
giving the village any particular notoriety
as a place to be Stunned for precaution-
airy health reasons?

Grady deserved to win from Winches-
ter high school. He had the goods but
his compatriots could not assist him to
deliver them when emergencies came.
Brattleboro presented a bona fide high
school team, while the visitors had at
least four old looking school boys, in
Guiding G. Thompson and Powers, who
played with the winchester town team
last season. In fielding and general
understanding of the game the home team
was completely outclassed. G. Thompson,
Powers and Qualters participated in sharp
plays. Two double plays were due in
large part to Brattleboro's sleepy base
running. Grady was found for only four
hits, coming in different innings, and he
had IL strike outs to his credit. Brosna-
han caught for the first time since his
injury at Keene, and being handicapped
by a sore hand and lack Of practice he
was unable to give the elongated twirler
the support he deserved. Brosnahan has
all the earmarks of a good catcher, how
ever, and may be depended on for good
work later. Peach made two pretty rum
ming catches in the centre garden and
raped out two sizzling singles Rogers
made a peculiar "fungo" hit. The ball
struck less than three feet in front of the
base, bounded back like a draw shot on
a billiard table, directly between the legs
of catcher Costello.
