Davis was extensively engaged in the
copper trade and was one OF the heaviest

Visitors from Hartford Won, but Con-
test Was Fastest Seen on Local Floor
This Season.
No basket ball game approaching the
one in Festival hall Tuesday night be-
tween the reorganized Delphi Athletic
team of Hartford, Conn, and the Brat
tleboro Independents has been seen in
Brattleboro in many a day. The crowd
was the largest of the season, Ills adj
missions being paid. The Independents
showed, as on previous occasions, that
they have got the stuff in them, and
although the Hartford aggregation start
ed off with a squirt they were soon over
taken, and from then up to three or
four minutes of the close the result was
in doubt. The visitors took another squirt
at the end and pulled out a victory 1881.
The Independents put up a remarkably
aggressive game, and March and Ellis
blocked effectively. Bothwelrs man, who
was left uncovered a large part of the
time, scored 10 baskets from field, but
the assertion that Boutwell, acted unwise
ly is open to doubt. The visitors led
by only one point at the end of the first
half.
It is stating only a truth to say that
Oakess exhibition of shooting was the
best ever given on the local floor. He had
his eye with him and made some long
distance goals which brought the crowd
to their feet. In one instance in particu
lar he was given an ovation. The ball
came into his possession as he stood near
the line opposite the visitors basket at
the farther end of the floor. The crowd
saw him raise it above his head and de-
plored his apparent lack of judgment.
An instant later they saw the ball shoot
through space and land squarey in the
basket without touching the screen. He
made other remarkable shots, To amuse
the crowd the managers put on a short
game between the parochial school boys
and the Y. NJ c. A. juniors, which was
won by the former.

Advertising a Part Of the Business.
[St. Adams Messenger

Newspapers OF the present generation
solicit advertising on a business basis
only, and with the distinct understand
ing that they can and they will give val
ne received for every dollar paid to them
by advertisers if-and here is the nub Of
the matter-if the advertiser pays as
much attention to the preparation of his
advertisement as the newspaper does to
the display and circulation OF 1t after
ward. Advertising Is no longer an ex-
pertinent, device external to ones bus
mess. a mere something to he trided
with in chance opportunity as a possible
means OF helping trade a little at times
In this day and generation advertising is
just as much a part of the business OF
merchandising as buying and laying in
the stock. 1t is an incidental part Of
the process OF selling. and a very i'm
portant part. too. II the merchant will
give one-tenth part OF the careful thought
TO the conduct Of his advertising that he
does to the careful selection of the goods
he, wants to sell, he will find that ad-
vertising does pay.
