The gravest danger, which is not

.CATAMOUNTS GO
DOWN BEFORE
BRAYT0MS
North Adams Team Won in
Fast Game
TOUCHDOWN, GOAL, SAFETY
Bennington Played Well on Defence,
But Failed to Advance When In
Possession Of the Ball.

The Bennington Catamounts, COM
posed principally Of company X men
and former high school players, had
their first game Of football at the
athletic field Saturday afternoon, and
although they were defeated by
score Of to they demonstrated that
they were material for a strong team.
The opposing team was the Brayton's
of North Adams, an organization
that has been maintained for num-
Der of years and which has had an ex-
ceedingly strong amatuer team in the
field for several seasons past. They
were quicker in following the ball
than Bennington and their line held
far better. 10
Bennington put up strong defence.
The local players appeared to have no
difficulty in solving the plays of their
opponents and picking the man with
the ball. They broke through in ex-
cellent shape and frequently tackled
the runner behind the line. Because
of the fact that they have had no OPP
posing team in their practice their Of
fence was weak. Had the line been
able to hold, the safety would not
have been scored In the first half and
Bennington would have been able to
have kept the ball away from her
goal line by kicking.
The goal scored by Brayton In the
second half had some of the features
of fluke attached to it. Brayton
had advanced the ball toward Benning-
tons goal during the entire half but
time was going rapidly and the visi-
tors had once lost the pigskin on
downs and regained it. Brayton could
not make the distance and attempted
a goal from a placement. Bennington
broke through and blocked the kick,
but the ball was recovered by one Of
the Brayton ends and carried behind
the goal posts for touchdown. A
goal was kicked making the final score
8 to o.
During the few minutes OF remain
ing play Remington Carried the ball
into Brayton territory by series OF
fierce PUSHES, but there was not time
enough to accomplish definite results

Clarksville, Tenn.-An event unique

The electric wires furnishing power
for operating motor which was used
to run the linotype machines were cut
out on account of the burning of 4

exceedingly blue fov the issuance of
paper unless hand composition was

The linotype operator observed n
big grindstone downstairs and his
was the bright idea of hitching IL to
the linotype by belt.
The connection was quickly made,
and nothing more was needed but to
hitch sufficient muscular energy to the
grindstone to keep the outfit moving.
Two laborers were secured and set
to this task, and the thing was done.
The qneer-looking device went to
work with utmost facility.
Its appetite for copy was something
phenomenal, and the newswriters aver
that neN'r before were they kept in
such a rush to supply material.

Are Some Families Residing
in East End.
SUFFERING EXPERIENCED
Neighbors Respond Nobly to
Calls for Help.
Service Board will be Ask to Open
East Center Street and Relieve
the Serious Situation.

Without coal, without groceries
and without many necessities, which
they want delivered at their homes,
a large number OF families residing
in the East End are suffering a. the
result of the refusal of the Board of
Public service to open up East Cen
ter street and the order of the HUI
name Society closing Wilson avenue.
A number of families are out of
coal, but are unable to secure any,
because local coal companies will moi
deliver the fuel because of the i'm
passable condition of the streets. Hub
deep in mud, the wagons are too
heavy for the horses to make their
way through the unpaved thorough
fares of that section and much suf-
fering has resulted.
In several cases there is sickness

send anyone for groceries, and as
deliveries will not be made, the fam
lilies would starve were it not for
The members of the service board
claim that they are not to blame
for the condition of affairs. They are
willing to open up East Center street
and relieve the situation If the con.
tractor and the property owners
along the street are also willing. The
property owners do not want the city
TO accept the street, because the paw
ing has been done in a very poor
manner and the contract made has
not been lived up to, they claim.
The contractor claims that he has
done his work according to contract
and that it is in first class condi-
tion. He is unwilling to throw the
street open and allow the city to use
1t until spring before accepting it.
Counsel for the contractor, the prop
erty owners and the city are en-
deavoring to arrange a plan to open
the street, but as yet have been un.
able to get together on any PROPOSE.
tion. A report will be made to the
service board Friday night and in the
meantime the residents of the east
end will have to suffer, wait and
hope.
Complaints by the dozen have
been made to almost every city Off
cial, but all claim to be powerless tc
act in the case. If the street is not
opened by the service board on Fri
day night, it is expected that some
OF the residents of that section who
are seriously inconvenieneed, will re.
sort to an action at law to open the
thoroughfare.

These were some of the radical ut

Dealing sarcastically with the sub

The present system of compulsory
plain living may produce race of
professors incapable of high thinking.
"The trustees of universities think
professors would grow lazy in such a
Utopia as a college would be if decent
salaries were paid. This is not the
casje. They would have chance TO
take a greater interest in college life

Railroao 11otes

The management OF the Erie
railroad has made an investigation
OF every accident which occurred
on that system during 1906, and has
laid the result before its employees,
together with u sermon on caution.
During the year there were 1,5l3
accidents on that system, resulting
IN damages amounting to $240, ,260.-
81. The accidents are itemized un.
der twenty different claSsifications
and investigation shows that nin-
cty-fivc per cent. of them could
have been prevented If each em-
ployc concerned had done his full
duty,
In many instances it develops
in suits against the railroads for
damages resulting from accidents,
that the parties suing were crimin-
ally negligent Especially is this
true among employees who bring
suit. Many times it is rccitcd in
courts that the injured party,
while in the employ of the road,
deliberately disregard his own SAT-
ETY. in attending to his work. Sacri-
fices in personal cndcavor to rem
der dhc company II special service
are of course exceptional and call
ed for only in emergency but the
customary instruction given new
employees particularly in road SER
vice, is "'look out for personal pre-
Scrvation.

Important Cases are Taken
up Wednesday.
INJUNCTION IS ISSUED
In Case of Clifford Film g
Against David Diller.
The Cosmopolitan Insurance Files
an Answer in the Suit Resulting
From Prospect Sanitorium Fire

The Circuit Court Tuesday after
noon heard the matter OF Frank a.
Huber and others, executors, against
the Marion Maleable Iron company
and others, a case which has been
pending for several years. This is
an action which grew out of an at
tempt to assess stockholders after
the company became insolvent and
previous to its sale to the present
owners.
Wednesday morning, the case of the
Big Four against William r. Wad-
dell was heard. This is an action
in which Waddel secured judg-
ment against the railroad company,
and the company seeks 10 have the
Judgment reversed on error.
Wednesday the famous steel furniture
case was also taken up. This is the
matter in which Prosecuting Attor-
Iney John II. Clark seeks to, prevent
the county from paying for some
steel furniture purchased from B. F..
Wade about three years ago.
! Clifford Fling. through his attorney
Fred w. Warner Wednesday, filed
a petition in the court of common
pleas against David w. Diller and
Mary L. ,Diller his wife. The plain
tiff claims that he owns one rod off
the east side of lot 933 and two rods
off the west side of lot 934 on Mt.
Vernon Avenue. He alleges that the
defendants claim some interest in the
property and the record is such that
they could dispose of it to an inno-
cent purchaser and the plaintiff would
have no adequate remedy at law.
For this reason, he asks that a
temorary restraining order be issued
for the purpose OF keeping the de
PENDANTS from disrosing of any por-
tion of the property described. He
also asks that they be required to
set up their interest. In the absence
of Judge Young, Judge Foster of the
Probate court issued temporary
restraining order.
An answer has been filed in the
court of common pleas for the Cos.
Imopolitan Insurance company in the
matter OF the Sulpho Magnetic
Springs Sanatorium company against
the North German Fire Insurance
company. This Is an action in
which the sanatorium company sues
to recover the amount of an Insurance
policy for a fire which occurred I
year ago.
The Cosmopolitan admits that II
reinsures risks for the North German
company, but that the Sanatorun
was not one of these and therefor,
1t asks to be dismissed from tn,
case. Scofield, Durfee and ScoRelt
represent the answering defendant.
