RALPH NOW IN
SECOND PLACE
Won Pool Game by Forfeit from
Flynn Tournament Ends
Tonight.
JOE CoNcANNoR HAS CHANCE.

TRENTON, Dec. 10:-George
Flynn, of Newark, failed to appear
for his game with Ed Ralph, of
Hightstown, in the state pool cham
pionship tournament at Trenton last
night and the game was thus for
feited, putting Ralph in second place.
The tournament ends tonight,
when Joe Concannon. of Woodbridge,
plays Duffy, of Hoboken, who has
not as yet lost a game in the tourna-
ment.
If Concannon wins from Duffy. all
three, Concannon, Duffy and Ralph
will be tied for first place. and would
have to play off for the prizes of 500,
SEQ and $40. Should Concannon lose
to Duffy, the Woodbridge boy will be
in third place with the Hightstown
man second.
When Flynn failed TO appear last
night, Ralph, rather than disappoint
the crowd, played a Hotpoint game
of billiards with Eddie Moore, the
Trenton expert, and by forcing Moore
to do his best, proved that he is also
an adept at the billiard game. Moore
won by a cor of 100 to 81. During
the match Ralph ran 10 points and
later clicked off 81. Moore's high
runs were II and 20.

At Wilder Music Hall December II.

The popular comedy drama,
''Fogg's Ferry" which has been con-
tinuously before the public for the
last twenty years, and which is
famed for having made several well
known stars-Minnie Madden beinG
n of them-is to be given in a new
dress this season. The new version
has the commentator of the large
western cities like Chicago, where it
has recently been played, and is given
in a very handsome scenic %presenta-
ton, with such added features as a
quartet and a troupe of plantation
dancers. A strong cast will interpret
the characters. Particular attention
will be given to the sensational
scenes, such a S the torpedo explo-
sion under the bows of a steamboat.
A number of specialties will be in
troduced.

Milking Machines.

Now that milking machines have
shown us that they can milk cows
without drying them up new claim
is being made for them. The milk is
drawn in a vacuum and deposited in
a covered pail through tubes without
coming in contact with the atmosphere.
1t is well known that milk is spoiled
by bad odors from the stable and from
dust and dirt falling into it during the
process of milking. In the best dairies
a great deal of expense and care are
continually expended to procure milk
as clean as possible. If the milking
machine proves as satisfactory as it
promises to be it will revolutionize
dairying, not only solving the labor
problem as applied to milking, but by
furnishing a better quality of milk at
Tess expense 1t is said that milk
drawn from the udder by the milking
machine and carried at once to thor
oughly cold sterilized bottles will keep
in good condition for week.

AN IMPORTANT QUESTION.
To Whom Belongs the Property of
the Grange That Disbandss

To whom Belongs the Property of
the Grange That Disbandss
Sometimes the question arises in the
minds of members of grange that
owns its own hall, To whom do the
hall and other property belong in case
the charter should be surrendered for
any reason? 1t may be stated as the
general Interpretation of the law that
the real estate Of the grange, such as
halls, barns, etc., In case the grange
disbands should be sold at public auc-
ton or at private sale and the proceeds
be equally divided among the members
of the grange in good standing at the
time when the grange disbands. The
personal property of the grange-as,
for instance, rituals, regalia, etc.
whose charter has been surrendered
for any reason belongs to the national
grange until such time as its charter
may be revived.
The state grange has no right to the
property of the subordinate grange
any further than to see that the pro-
visions of the law under which the
grange is organized or incorporated are
fully complied with.

body may be secured, but there is dam
ger of the new shoot breaking on ac-
count of rapid growth. When tree
has grown rapidly the first year it may
be better to cut back the second spring,
and it is good plan to let the straight
er trees stand uncut to serve as a wind
break for the new growth of those cut
back Ordinarily, however, the cutting
back is done after two years growth,
and the new sprout will make a post
as soon as the old one would have done
if left standing. Six by ten feet is a
better distance for the trees than 8 by 8
on account of cultivation, and posts
can be cut in eight years from planting,

A Timely Point.

The corn root louise, which is cared
for by ants, when turned up by the
plow late in the fall is unable to re-
enter the ground, and the ants are too
sluggish to carry them below, making
it probable that both species win per-
ish. Generally speaking, the later
plowing is done the more effective it
will prove as an economic measure
against injurious insects. IA. A. Cos

resolution adopted by the Oregon state
grange relative to the postal service.
The resolution empowers committee
of three members of the Order to en-
ploy all necessary assistance, as law
yers, stenographers and expert account
ants, to proceed to Washington and in
vestigate the public records and all
other available sources of information
in the postal department, and IF any
unnecessary financial drains are dis
covered the national grange shall at
once convey the facts to the president
of the United States and to the national
congress and demand public investiga-
tion" That committee will have a job
on its hands if appointed. There would
not be much trouble with the postofice
deficiencies if congress would cut out
the fagrantly abused franking privi-
lege, which now costs the government
$19,000,000 year. Another resolution
will relate to the basis of representa-
ton in the national grange, changing it
from the present two delegates to each
state to number based on the number
Of members in each state-in other
words, on popular representation.
