mands that the army be kept intact at

BURRELLE is STILL ON DECK.
Former 5rattIeboro Ball Player, Reported
Killed in Accident, VIII Umpire In a
Western League.

Western League.
All OF the Brattleboro fans of 1888
and 1889 remember Harry" Burrelle, who
was first baseman and outfelder for the
local team the latter year. and who went
from here to Iowa in the spring OF 1890.
His home was In Bethel. and as boy in
his teens he played with the professional
club in Burlington. He played a short
time in Bellows Falls and Turner's Falls
before coming to Brattleboro. II was re-
ported last year in dispatches to New
York papers that Burrelle had been killed
in a railroad accident in Montana, but
this was evidently a mistake, as Burrelle
Is still on deck according to the following
from recent issue Of the Sioux City
journal:
For 15 years Handsome Harry" Bur-
relle has been actively connected with
base ball, first as a pitcher, then manager
and now as umpire. He has been appoint
ed by President Norton a member of the
stan Of men who will handle the indicators
in the Iowa State league. He has made
his home In Sioux City for the past few
years and is at present in the employ Of
the John ArenSdolph Mercantile company.
He reports for duty May 1. Burrelle is
a Green Mountain boy, having been born
in Vermont where he pitched himself
into notice with amateur teams. His
first professional engagement was with
Joliet. He attracted the attention of the
major league teams and played one sea-
son with the st. Louis Browns. Milwau-
kee obtained him the following year and
then he had a season with Springfield
Mass. He occupied the slab for Des-
Moines and Rock Island and then went
to Memphis.
But the south paw which had won many
a hard battle was going back on Burrelle
and he was releRated to the smaller
leagues. But he brought his wing back
by careful treatment and for three years
was on the slab for Omaha His last
active engagement as pitcher was with
this club in 1900. From there he went to
Mason city to assume the duties of mana
ger. He picked up the indicator and
umpired for the Iowa and South Dakota
league and then last year for the Iowa
State league. His work was so satisfac-
tory that he has been again appointed.
AS a pitcher, Burrelle in his prime was
one of the best. He had plenty OF speed,
a good break and a well controlled slow
ball. Personally, Burrelle has always
been very popular, always giving his best
effort to everything that he undertook.

immigration into the United States will
II the record for the first quarter of the
current year be maintained to its close
over 1000 foreigners arrived in New
York in two days in March, an unprece-
dented showing. The number Of arrivals
during the first quarter OF 1905 has never
been exceeded during a like period in
former years. The figures are: jan
uary, 1904, 19,159; January, 1905,
42,262; February, 1904, 2S,410; Feb
ruary, 1905, 4s,647. The arrivals in March,
1904, numbered 1854. but for the first %
days of the present month the number
was 64,569. 1t is probable that the inn
migration this year will be double that of
1904. Extraordinary efforts are being
made TO furnish transportation. Ships
hitherto engaged in other service are in
demand for the transportation of the COM
ing hordes from Europe, and steerage
accommodations are booked ahead for sew
eral months. The Eastern war and the
internal unrest in Russia are sending
Russians to the United States in great
numbers. Italy is also contributing great
ly to our population. 1t furnished only
about per cent Of the arrivals "a years
ago. over SO per cent. of our total inn
migration will come from that country

probably win be forced to take some
action to restrict immigration.

ICE OUT OF CONNECTICUT.
There is Big Jam in the West River,

Is Thouaht to Be Safe.

Is Thought to Be Safe.
The ice is nearly all out Of Connecti-
cut river and West river as a result of
the warm weather and the consequent
high water the past several days. There
was some anxiety during Sunday and
Monday over the possibility of the Brat
tleboro Gas Light company's dam in
West river being carried out, but 1t was
spared test for at least another year.
The Connecticut river became clear from
below the village to above the mouth of
West river previous to Sunday, and since
then the ice has broken up gradually to
points farther north. Before noon. Sun
day the ice went out OF West river from
the mouth to the foot Of the Gas Light
company's dam. At that time water
was running over the dam to a depth of
three or four feet, and ii was expected
momentarily that the ice above the dam
would give way, and although the mem
bers of the company had confidence in
the stability of the new structure on Mon
day gang Of men was set at work blast
ing ice in the pond so that as much as
possible might be fioated over the dam.
day, as the warm weather honeycombed
much OF the ice and caused ii to settle
down the stream. Ice on a section Of
the river a mile or more above the dam
broke up and piled 80 feet high in some
places. part of the river at the up
per end of the pond is still covered, but
what ice is left in the river probably will
do no harm to the dam.
The ice in the Connecticut at Bellows
Falls went out Wednesday night, making
fine spectacle. The water on the dam
rose from seven feet at noon to 13 feet at
midnight A little before midnight a
huge jam near Charlestown gave way and
rushed toward Bellows Falls with a tre-
mendous roar The water rose four feet
in one hour. The abutments of the new
bridge quivered, but remained intact, and
a rod on the north side of the bridge was
broken. Two booms at the head of the
canal were broken, causing loss of $4,000
| to $4,000 The river is still very high.

Another inside story OF the blowing up
OF the battleship Maine in Havana har-
Dor seven years ago has appeared. 1t is
told by one Gessler Rosseau, who was in
the Tombs prison at New York convicted
of sending explosives to the Cunard pier
in that city in May, 1908. He alleges that
he built the mine which destroyed the
Maine, and that IL was intended for use
in blowing up one of the Spanish war
vessels, but that a Cuban revolutionist
accidentally fastened II to the Maine.

The question of a successor to Mr..
Oakes as superintendent OF the state
prison at Windsor is settled. the appoint
ment having gone to ex-Sheriff Lowell OF
Windsor county, who will enter upon his
official duties today. The Phenix is Of
the opinion that the state has had rare
ly capable official in Mr.. Cakes, regardless
of the criticism which has been aimed at
him in the past few months His record
is in some respects like that of the Cunard
steamship line, which never lost a pas
senger or a mail bag. In his service Of
% years not a prisoner escaped, and there
were no revots among the prisoners, such
as have been frequently reported at
Charlestown, Mass. and in other places.
Mr.. Oakes was a strict disciplinaran, as
he had to be, but we never heard that he
was charged with cruelty, or that dis
charged prisoners complained OF harsh
treatment. Mr.. Lowell may have been
the best qualified OF the several candidates
who wished to succeed Mr. Oakes but it
is difficult to see why a man should be
chosen from the ordinary vocations OF life
for the superintendency Of state prison
any more than a medical practitioner
without special training should be select
ed for the superintendency Of an insane
asylum. The superintendent OF a state
prison should have training as an insti-
tutional manager and should be a student
in criminology, trained by long experience
to judge the peculiar types OF men
brought under his control II is a ques-
tion whether our state prison directors
would not have done well to have search
ed Dannemora, Auburn, Concord and
other prisons for a man with the right
kind OF experience rather than to have
appointed a man with no apparent special
qualifications for the office.
