5 POLO SEASON OPENS

New Britain, Conn, Nov. 5.--The polo
season OF 19O6-07 was ushered in here last
night at Hannas Armary by draeary.
uninteresting game that resulted in a VIC
tory for the home team over Hartford
by the score of Is TO L. The visitors were
outplayed fro mthe start. A total OF eight
goals was rolled up by the New Britain
rushes before the Capitol City men sue
ceeded In finding the net.
There was much speculation as to how
the teams would line up. The only man
signed by Manager Hanna that failed to
show up was Bannon. the crack Western
goaltender. Fred Jean, the big centre,
arrived late in the afternoon from the
West and despite his long journey played
81 snappy game. Bobby Hart, rusher. and
Kid Switzerland, goaltender, Western
players signed by Manager Starkle or
Hartford. failed to appear. Pinky Turner
took Hart's place on the rush line and
Manager Starkie got back in harness
again and guarded the cage. Seeing that
il was unnecessary. the local men did not
exert themselves. and the result was
slow game, devoid of feature. The game
was witnessed by about 1000 The lineup

FIRE DIDN'T BRIGHTEN THIS
HEN.

One of the features of fire on
North Montgomery street was furnish
ed by a common old settin' hen.
The fire started among some dead
grass in the back yard Of the Lane
home. The flames spread rapidly, be-
ing famed by a steady breeze. The
fire alarm was sounded and the de-
partment responded in time to exiting
uish the flames before they reached
any of the dwellings in the vicinity
The fire did, however, burn up close
to a board fence, near which sat a hen
with her brood. Although the boards
were scorched and smouldering heaps
of grass made her quarters exceeding
ly uncomfortable, she refused to move
simply covering more carefully the lit
tie chicks. She eyed the firemen with
hatred and resented interference in
any way She was not molested and
probably would not have moved had
the flames enveloped her.-Cberryvale

maritime nations have deemed it ne
cessary to establish depots of food and
clothing on a few of the most impor-
tant of the islands along this route
On Hog Island, Crozet Group, a French
war vessel left considerable supply
of necessaries in hut erected near
the landing place, and a similar ar
rangement was made by the British
Warship Comus on Possession Island,
where she landed provisions enough to
last fifty people for fifty days. An
other Warship esta blished similar de-
pots at the islands of Amsterdam, Saint
Paul and Kerguelen; nearer New Zea-
land, there are also depots of a like
nature on several of the islands and a
government steamer visits the islands
once CT twice a year to replace such
stores as may have become unfit for use
and take off any castaways that may
have arrived, irrespective of nation
atty. At Cape Beale and at Carmanah
Lighthouse, Vancouver Island, there
are similarly satisfactory stores for
castaways. Needless to say, perhaps.
the direction of the caches are clearly
indicated on shore so that the famish-
and clothing in the shortest. possible
interval of time after landing, and
notices with respect to them appear
regularly in the government publica-
tons issued to mariners by the several
maritime nations. If the report of our
Chilian contemporary be true the I'M
fortunate castaways escaped drowning
only to die on shore.
One of the most interesting stories
with respect to castaways is Shake
speare's Tempest, and in that the hon
est old counselor Gonzalo would give
a thousand furlongs of sea for an acre
of barren ground inasmuch as he
would fam die a dry DEATH Very
