 The figures were 8 to ' In Hartford's favor after the wild one plugged three successive goals into the cage, and as Ole, the Flying swede" from the west, had relieved Bone, the visitors were given new life and considerably changed their style of play. Hartford was on the defensive for few min utes, making a game effort to break up the team work of Bone's men, but getting their second wind, Hart and his helpers slipped the ball past Mullen twice and put the contest on the ice, barring accidents The game was one of the fastest and cleanest seen at the rink this season.

THE ROADS
AFTER RAIL
OF STRENGTH
,specIal to The Sentinel. J

New York, Nov. 4.-The combined
efforts of the steel manufacturers and
the railroads to find standard steel
rail that will safely bear the weight
and incident strain imposed upon 1t
by the. modern locomotive are bear
ing fruit.
The American Railway Associa-
ton has been negotiating the sub
ject to determine whether more sat
isfactory rail could be made. and in
this the steel manufacturers have CO.
operated. The railway association,
whic hhas had the matter in hand.
reported progress at the semi-annu-
al convention of the association here
yesterday. The committee agreed on
the advisability of an Improvement
in rail sections which would affor
a definite distribution of metal be-
tween head and base of rail. and de-
velop a homogeneous condition of
metal by cooling simultaneously.
This was approved by the association
and also the technical suggestions
regarding the method of rolling rails.

If another election was held 1t is
believed that the proposition would
easily carry. Few people realized
that fight was being made on the
proposition, consequently scores OF
citizens who wanted to see the propo-
sition carry did not vote, thinking
that the proposition would win out
easily. Their chagrin and mortifi-
cation were great when 1t was
learned that the vote was tie.
A total of 404 votes were cast.

of last year for the purpose of au-

The result of the election was
known by O'Clock Saturday night,
but The Sentinel today makes the
first public announcement of the ac-
tual and true result of the vote.
The Morning Yellow, although 1t
knew yesterday and probably knew

had deliberately misstated the re-
suit of the election, made no effort
whatever to correct the false report.

evening, 1898, John McNulty, a man
In moderate circumstances, while re-
turning to his home, aided a beggar
who stopped him on the street and
applied for aims. The man insisted

appreciation.
MeNulty thought 10 more of the
matter until the other evening, upon
returning from his work he opened
a letter which had come for him, and
found enclosed thousand-dollar
