LOCAL TELEPHONE CONSTRUCTION.
Forty Feet Of Conduit and ste Feet Of
Duct Built Here Last Year-Work In
New England.

New England.
a record i'm activity in providing new
underground construction for Brattle-
boro last year appears in the recent
report Of the New England Telephone and
Telegraph company. Forty feet Of con-
duit and 3l6 feet Of duct were built here,
while ATOP feet of cable of various Sizes
each cable being made up of a multi
plicity of circuits, were added to the
buried lines.
AS the number of subscribers and cir
cults multiplies, cable is used in place OF
open wire wherever possible. Some of
the cables are made a part of the pole
lines, but the amount of new construc-
ton that is put underground each year
is astonishing. In fact, nearly two thirds
of the entire wire mileage of the New
England telephone system is now buried
beneath public highways.
One of the marked features of the re-
construction work throughout this ter
ritory has been the replacement Of open
wire by aerial cable to provide for fur
Their growth, free the lines from many
classes of trouble and thereby reduce
the cost of future maintenance. In this
replacement and in the extension Of lines
upwards of 1900 600 feet of aerial cable
has been hung, while about one quarter
Of the entire length of the New England
toll circuits has been arranged and re-
transposed. thus materially increasing
their efficiency.

McAleer of the st. Louis Browns,
has four outfielders who were sent
back to the American association after
trial with the American league.
The Birmingham club, of the South
ern league, has made proposition to
President Hermann for First BASE
man Deal. If the latter is satisfied,
the sale will be made.
Fred Tenney will play Sunday ball
next season, something he has never
done before. Fred has an interest in
the Boston club now, and it makes a
lot of difference whether you are
working for yourself or some one else.
The Boston team will be a good Sun
day attraction next year, instead of
a joke, as heretofore.
1t is not often a pitcher leads his
team in batting, but Frank Smith, of
the Chicago White Sox, did the trick
this year. 1t was great season for
the Sox twirlers.
Stanley Robson, of st. Louis, when
asked what he had accomplished in
the way of trades said: eve tried
out fifty-six men during the season of
1906, and know just about where we
stand. Didn't look for any trades at
this meeting, but would have made
any which might have added strength
to our team. The others were all
looking for the best of it, and that is
why st. Louis did not figure in a
trade"
President Charlie Murphy of the
Chicago Nationals says that next sea-
son he will put into use the Richter
idea of numbering the ball players 81
that the spectators can tell who is
who on the diamond. The idea is to
have the number sewed to the uniform
so that it can be seen and have the
same number opposite the players
name in the score card.
In training for his battle with Her.
man, Cans broke nine punching bags,
and is wondering whether he is get
ting stronger than he ever was be-
fore, whether the bags he has had at
Tonopah are poorer in quality than
the general run of them are, or
whether the altitud. of the place
causes a greater atmospheric pres
sure on the inside of the bag than
the outside.

"Peegy From Paris.

Peggy from Paris" will lie here to-
morrow night. OF all the musical
comedies produced in this country,
none has attained greater popularity
than Peggy from Paris" The book
ana lyrics are the product of George
AIDE, than whom no American humor-
list mas been more widely read or more
thoroughly enjoyed; and this play is
is one OF his brightest and cleverest
works. 1t abounds in wit, humor and
merriment; qualities that character
lze not alone the speeches and d.
alogues of the characters in the play,
but which invest the characters them
selves and also the scenes and stu
attons through which they are moved.
Peggy from Paris was written to
create genuine and wholesome laugh
ter. 1t has succeeded to a marked de-
gree, In testimony of which is the
praise it has received wherever it has
been done. and the runs it has achiev-
ed In the big cities. It ran four
months at Wallack's theatre in New
York, five months at the fremont
theatre in Boston and three months
In the Studebaker theatre in Chicago.
Hence the play spent one entire year
in three cities and was a pronounced
triumph In each. No stronger proof
could be asked of the attractive quail
tiles Of this musical comedy than its
record of runs. Only theatrical Offer
ings that are in the highest degree in
teresting and attractive can draw the
extent OF patronage which staid all
those months in New York, Boston and
Chicago, unless the public had en-
Joyed 1t and gone to see it, for it is
only when great hits are scored that
such lengthy engagements are record
ed.

was the only round where Herman
made any showing. Herman waded

Herman at the end cs the round.
The sixth and seventh rounds were

the match Delaney made to fight
Squires of Australia at Rhyolite in

which are to be held at Tonopah.
JEFF says Delaney assumed he could
