SCHOOL NOTES.

Miss Mable Martin gave party last
Friday evening, in honor of Miss Gene
We've Taylor, who has been spending
her vacation in town.
The base ball team has been practicing
faithfully all the week, although they
are handicapped, by not having good
place to practice as the ground is yet too
wet to fix the diamond in the rear of the
school house.
A tact that has caused great deal
of glee lately is the statement that the
of its own. Col Ilsley has started to make
a diamond on the Fair Grounds, the use
of which he has given to the High school.
+ or long time the High school has had
to be under obligations to the college for
the use of their diamond, and nothing
could be received more gratefully than
this gift of Col. Ilsley's.
The second team has organized with
MacQuivey '0s. as captain and manager.
Their first game will be played ar Bris
toll, tomorrow, with the Bristol indie
pendants.
1t has been necessary to organize
new system of fire drill.

BICYCLES on the Walks.

EDITOR OF THE REGISTER: There has
lately appeared upon our sidewalks a
new epidemic of Wheels. Only short
time ago an elderly lady was knocked
down by reckless rider while walking
on one of these walks, provided at public
expense for foot travellers, and prohibited
to wheel-men and wheel-women by law.
1t is somewhat surprising in view of the
fact that such riding is prohibited by
public statute under heavy fine, that
when one of our transgressors is cor
rected by word of mouth for such
offence, being in the act, he goes calmly
on his way after remarking to the effect
that any one has right to ride on the
walk except when the trustees have posted
notices prohibiting the same. 1t is thus
that good-natured act of our trustees
two years ago, when they unnecessarily
set up such notices to call the attention
of riders to the law and keep them out
of trouble, has been construed, not only
by young riders, but by certain wiseacres,
WIN Ou6hl W hhOW bCttCi, 90 q iCdl ouo-
pension of the law, when notices are not
posted. If our village officers did their
duty, it would take only one case to
show these people the error of their
ways.
Section 1892 of the Vermont Statutes,
so far as il relates to this subject, is as
follows: "If a person unnecessarily
leaves or drives an animal, or rides a
bicycle, upon a sidewalk built and main
tanned for the benefit of the travelling
public \ he shall be fined not
more than Twenty five Dollars, and not
less than five dollars"
The fine prescribed is greater than that
provided for petty larceny; yet there are
few who contend that any person is or
ought to be exempt from prosecution for
stealing, provided he takes property
worth less than seven dollars. Bicycles
on the walks are an intolerable nuisance,
as well as a constant menace to those
who use the walks for a legitimate pur-
pose. There are several right-minded
citizens of Middlebury that propose to
see to it that this law is enforced

ACTING GOVERNOR DECLINES
TO INTERFERE AND = DEATH
WARRANTS ARE SIGNED.

Acting Governor Atkinson yesterday
signed the death warrants for the five
Korean murderers from Hawaii, di-
recting the High Sheriff to ,have them
executed on May .. They are all now
in oahu Jail, under a death watch.
The death warrants were delivered
last night to High Sheriff Henry.
The murderers i'm question are those
i'm whose behalf the Rev. j. w Wad-
man mterceded. Six were concerned i'm
the crime, which was that of torturing
fellow countryman to death. one
was convicted of murder i'm the second
degree and got a life sentence. The
men were defended by Carl Smith, and
when appealed to for an opinion as to
what should be done. he expressed the
view that the sentences We're just and
ought to stand.

treme penalty of the law are SHIN

SPORT T S

From the above it will be seen that
i'm only single event is the 1906 team
superior to that of 1900. This is the
broad jump where Prinstein is credit
ed with better figures than Kraenz-
lein. But no sane person would ever
pick Prinstein - beat Kraenzlein.
Prinstein's record was not accepted for
more than a year and, there are many
persons who still think it should not
be allowed. There was a high wind
blowing when it was made, and the
take-off was springy Furthermore
Prinsten $has not been able to jump
within a foot of that mark since.
In the 100 yards, the quarter mile
and the shot put the records are equal.
But in two of these events the 1900 ath-
letes have since made records which
the 1906 men could not approach. Duff
fey with his subsequent record of 3-5
for the 100 yards and Long with his
work mark of Al seconds fiat for the
quarter mile are both superior to
Schick or Hahn in the 100 yards or Hill
man i'm the quarter mile. In the hur-
dies Leavitt and Friend, of the pres
ent team, would be mere novices if pitt
ted against Kraenzlein The same is
true in the high jump, where Baxter
was far superior to Kerrigan. In the
half and mile runs the superiority OF
the 1900 men was almost as decisive.

OF THE RECORDS OF
THE MEN AT THE OLYMPIAN
GAMES IN 1906 AND 1900.

The American team which is to con-
test in the olympic games at Athens
from April % to May will not be the
equal of the one which went to Paris
i'm 1900. This is not because athletics
are at a low ebb i'm this country now,
but because Of the length of time which
the trip will involve few college men
win be allowed to go, and the team win
not anywhere near represent the ath-
letic strength of the country
To one who is familiar with the rec
ords of the athletes who made up the
1900 team, composed almost entirely of
college undergraduates, it will be seen
at once that the members of the pres
,ent team are weaker i'm nearly every
event than the 1900 team. There is but
a single event i'm which the 1906 team
is better than the 1900 team, and. in
only few are the records equal In
all of the others the 1900 athletes were
I far superior to the members of the 1906
team.
! The team which went to Paris con-
sisted of such sprinters as Duffey. Of
Georgetown Jarvis, or Princeton. and
