 In the afteroon Monson came down, and we were theirs. They did it or our owh grounds. It was one of the
 best games ever played on the fail grounds. The Stafford played with
 out an error, but inability to hit Cart mill at the right time and the luck with Monson we lost the first one. Murphy, the first one to bat, sent g liner near the first base, which went into the crowd, and he reached home. Unfortunately the diamond had beer swung around so that the fair bal line took in a portion of a fence, around which a crowd of people were standing, and the fielder was unable to find the ball in time to prevent Murphy from reaching home. Il ought not to have been only one or two base hit, and as the next three men up were easily retired, the first run was not earned. In the sixth Monson opened with a single to left by Crowley. Murphy placed single in the same place. King sacrificed, putting Crowley on third and Murphy on second. Colleton, with single to right, brought in the two men. Staf- ford's only run was made by Barker, who sent liner, which was homer. In the ninth inning Oartmin saved the score from at least being tied by his catch of Sullivan's swift liner. At that time there was only one man out and two on bases. If the ball had gone a few inches higher the hit would have brought in the two runs so very much desired by Stafford. Graham opeEed the ninth for Stafford with hit to left field which DOwd failed to hold. Barker flew out to Longtime. Graham stole second. Waite sent a single to right, putting Graham on third. Sullivan sent his liner toward center, which Oartmill captured. Horrigan rolled slow one to King and was out at first, and it was Monson's game. Only three base hits were made off Oartmill, but he did not have single strike-out to his credit. The attendance, 1905 paid admissions, was the largest ever seen at ball game in Stafford. Over 300 came from Monson The scOre :=

 The high tenison line between Rockville and the local plant is con- pleted, and as soon as the machinery is ready connection will be establish ed. The business of the local plant will be much simplified under the new plan. The boiler and engine will be removed and the water wheel will be the only power used. A new alterna- ting generator of 75 kilowats has been placed. This machine has as much power as the three machines now in use All of the old machinery has been disposed of and will be removed at once. Another improvement is the new four panel switchboard that has been placed. The new generator, with five conformers, will take the place of all the machinery now in use, and will do much better work. The lines will be put in first class condi- tion. New poles will be placed be- tween the plant and the village and through Main street.

As soon as the new machinery is in position and connections are established with Rock vile, the company will be in 8 posi- tion to furnish any quantity of elec- tricity, day or night.

CHAPTER XIII.

Maurice Frere found his favorable
expectations of Sydney fully realized.
His notable escape from death at Mac
quarie Harbor, his alliance with the
daughter of so respected a colonist as
Major Vickers, and his reputation as a
convict disciplinarian, rendered hiN a
man of note. He received a vacant
magistracy, and became even more not
ed for hardness of heart and artfulness
of prison knowledge than before. The
convict population spoke Of him as shat
-Frere," and registered vows of ven
geance against him, which he laughed
in his bluffness-to scOrn.
One of the first things this useful
officer did upon his arrival in Sydney
was to inquire for Sarah Purfoy. To
his establishment, he discovered that she
was the proprietor of large export ware
houses in Pitt street, owned neat cot
tage on one of the points of land which
jutted into the bay, and was reputed
to possess a banking account of no in
considerable magnitude. He In vain
applied his brains to solve this mystery.
She had not been rich when she left
Van Diemen's land-at least, so she had
assured him, and appearances bore out
her assurance. How had she accumulat-
ed this sudden wealth? Above all, why
had she thus invested it? He made in
quiries at the banks, but was snubbed
for his palms. Sydney banks in those
days did some queer business.
He had not been long established in
his magistracy when Blunt came to
claim payment for the voyage of Sarah
Purfoy.
"Wen," said Blunt, "I've got a job
on hand"
"Glad of 1t, am sure. What sort
Of a job?'
"a job of whaling" said Blunt, more
uneasy than before.
"Oh, that's it, is it? Your old line
of business. And who employs you
nowY
''NIrs. Purfoy"
WHAT" cried Frere, scarcely able to
believe his ears.
"She's got a couple of ships now, cap
tain, and she made me skipper Of one
of 'em. We take a turn at harpooning
sometimes"
Frere stared at Blunt, who stared at
the window. There was-so the instinct
| of the magistrate told him-some
strange project afoot. Yet that common
sense which so often misleads us urged
that it was quite natural Sarah should
employ whaling vessels. to increase her
trade. oh" said he, 'and when do
you startY
I'm expecting to get a word every
| day." returned Blunt, "and l thought
| I'd just come and see you first, in case
| of anything falling in"
| Maurice Frere, oppressed with suspi-
cions, ordered his horse that afternoon,
and rode down to see the cottage which
the owner of "Purfoy Stores" had pur-
chased. He found it low white build
ing, situated four miles from the city,
at the extreme end of a tongue of land
which ran into the deep waters Of the
harbor. A garden, carefully cultivated,
stood between the roadway and the
| house.

The Adair County news., 1906-12-26

Jeff York, of Cumberland
county, was here last Wednesday.
Master Olan Rossen has a very
sore eye this week and is unable
to be at school.
The school at Independence
closed last Wednesday. Mr.. H.
E. Kinnaird, the teacher, gave
perfect satisfaction and he has
the good wishes of the communi-
ty wherever he may go. AS this
is very small district he decid-
ed to cast his lot elsewhere next
year, so We can commend him to
the district of his choice.
The meeting at independence
was postponed until the 23rd inst
on account of a very successful
meeting at Harrodsfork, which
has just closed.
A certain young man was pass
ing Metcalfe's whisky den last
Saturday and as the day was
very disagreeable he stopped and
procured a half pint. He says
that he only drank two very
small drains. Judging from his
condition when he reached home,
if this be true, a third dram
would have been fatal. 1t has
always been mistery to me why
any sensible man would submit
to such a deadly poison. It
would be just as sensible to drink
arsenic or carbolic acid as it
would to drink so called wihiiis,1y
when its chief ingredients are
tobacco juice, ball lye or fish ber-
ries. But why drink any at all
when it is known that ''It bitetb
like serpent and stingeth like
an adder" So now young man
take the advice of friend and
shun the haunts of the serpent.
If Metcalf wants to submit to the
disgrace of allowing her soil to
be thus polluted, please let the
shame all lie on her shoulders
and do not stain the fair name
of grand old Adair by patroniz-
ing such a degrading institution.

would not be providing fiat mon
ey, which they so vehemently
opposed, a short time ago under
Democratic Doctrine of free sill
yer, as they termed it. The per
capita never was equal to the
present, and our country leads
all other in this respect, yet in
the face of this, lin the full
bloom Of prosperity, with but
little hope of a Democratic victo-
ry in 1908, a Republican Congress
is preparing against a panic.
Such a stepis not only repudi-
ating the theory Of Republicans
that they make sound money and
prosperity, but that under their
full sway they fear evil days.
The elasticity of which they
speak will never stretch over the
extravigance of a few more years
of greed, graft and blunders.
