About sixty persons came to Hotel Bar
ton Friday morning TO see the Philadel-
phia doctors, who were ad dvertised to ap-
pear there Friday and Saturday. Nothing
whatever has beeG learned about the par
ties as they did not appear at Newport
where they were advertised to appear
Wednesday and Thursday. The adver-
tising was contracted for the same as other
advertising of that kind is and on our part
was carried out. While the large number
} who appeared for treatment demonstrates
the value of the MONITOR as an advertis-
ing medium, we were sorry to see SO many
disappointed.
| e. L. GaskiIl OF this place met with Sc
rious accident about five O'Clock Saturday
He was on the scaffold in the barn and feI
, some twelve or fifteen feet and struck on
moving machine. His son found him
few moments after, and the blood wa
running from his mouth and nose and b
was unconscious. Friends took him to tn
house, but 1t was four O'Clock Sundc,
> morning before he regained Consciousness
In falling, he struck the cutter bar in sucl
q way as to break the fall somewhat an,
perhaps saved his life. At this writing b.
;. is more comfo1tab BILE, and there appear t.
be no bones broken, but serious concus
sion of the brain. -
q The Barton boys seem to be getting thei
t eyes on the ball. In the Saturday gam
with Barton Landing they pounded out a
q easy victory, touching the famous Glide
o for thirteen hits with total of ninetee
O bases. We had expected better things G
Gildea, but all pitchers have their off day
I. and this was certainly bad day for hin
It glance at the score will show that up
IT the middle of the sixth inning the game We
a very close and exciting one. Jenness, o
ID the other hand was in fine form and onl
l. allowed three hits to be made off his deliy
). cry. The feature of the game was Carrt
Webster's batting. The score follows.
