A GREAT BALL GAME.

The famousCherokee Indian baseball club will play with the New Milford nine on Friday, July 26, on the I'm perial ball grounds at and 8 D. m. A great many people have never seen game of baseball at night. and a few ball clubs have tried to put it on. but it remained for the Cherokee Indians to put the night game on successfully, as is proven by the press notices The Cherokee Indians carry their own light plant and completely light the ball grounds, enabling the players and pub lie to see as well as in the day game. Don't forget the Indians play in the afternoon at and the night game is called at 8 o'clock. The Cherokee In- dians represent the strongest club of genuine Red Men ever gotten together. This club travels in their own a portable fence and grand stand that is used in towns that have no regular park. The Register and Leader of Des Moines, Ia., says of them: Not only did the Cherokee In dians prove the strongest club that ever visited Des Moines, but the night game was away beyond expectations and drew the two largest crowds that ever saw ball game here. The In dians were too strong for our club and defeated them by score of 8-3. The Stanton Review says of them: The game last night resulted in victory for the Redskins. The grounds were brilliantly lighted and the crowds esti- mated between 5000 and 4,O00 people, who went away thoroughly convinced that the great national game can ,. be played at night

 It will be interesting or some peo- pie to know that Arthur Montanna, a polite and well liked attendant in the restaurant of his brother.

When the earth dressed, and hastened to the street. but had great difficulty in getting out, as the block .aross the street had fallen and blocked his doorway. He was un- able to get back up stairs to get his trunk. which he lost with his clothes and $2 in money. For three nights he lived in the streets. The first night he says he made $20 carrying trunks and helping people move. At the end of three days he left for Spokane. then went to Portland and later to Los An geles, Cal. From there he came to New Milford. It was an experience and sensation he says he can never for get.

THE ART OF FLYING.
Noted French Aeronaut to Complete
New Acceptance.

Special Cablegram to The Star.
VIENNA, January 26.-Capt. b. Tabor OF
the French artillery, who Is known as an
aeronaut and has been granted
leave in order to complete an aeroplane In
vented by himself, has just published In the
..Noue Erie Presse'' an article entitled
"From the First Step to the First Flight"
The captain explains his aeronautical stud
les and ridicules those who believe that the
art of flying has been theoretically brought
to fruition and only needs to be put into
practice
.To invent a flying machine is nothing:
to build one not much-to test 1t Is every
thing" he says. II. 6antos-Dumont only
obtained his successes by constant fresh ex-
periments he says. Even so. he has mere
ly discovered that only one propeller can be
used without danger Of the aeroplane cap
sizing, and that It is possible to ascend from
the ground without erecting expensive land
ing stages. This latter achievement, he ex-
plains, gives the real practical utility to the
aeroplane.
