sessions. both teams played the most
miserable kind of baseball, If such n

be termed baseball, and the fact that
the locals emerged victorious by a
count of 6 to seemed to be princi-
pally due to that streak of good luck
which has been over present with
them this year.
The crowd that saw the game was
one of the smallest that has gathered
in the park this season, numbering
less than one hundred. Some few

ley" from the Greenhorn district, and
Harold Van Alstein, in the double
role of Jeff's son and an Office boy,
proved himself fully equal to the task.
O. B. Morehouse, as an INSCRIPTIONS
villain, looked every inch the part he
represented and w. G. Fredericks,
guy from the Klondike, was good.
AL Smith made an admirable ''Rube'
and Oscar Stark a dexterous crook.
AS Fatty Wall Ira Stanley, with a
pillow beneath his vest, was success
and as ''Sam Sattler" he could not be
surpassed. B. O. Brown was allotted
two parts, both of which he performed
admirably. AS a tramp he was per-
haps the best-lean and lanky with a
half-starved look on his face. Oswald
King was another tramp, and that pc
culiar gait of his, coupled with his
homely countenance, dovetailed into
his part splendidly. AS "Alice Arm
cliffe," an heiress, Edna Whitney was
par excellence, and that bump on the
floor did not even jar her nerves.
Mrs. B. O. Brown as "Patty Plumm''
and Mrs. Lillian Van Alstein as
"Mrs. Townsley" we're exceptionally
good in their respective parts.
Between acts Mrs. Burbank sang a

Eank at Lawrence,

That well-informed business men
who have material interests in the
Mile Laos lake country are convinced
that the 500 road will build an ex-
tension to Duluth this year is evil
denced by the fact that bank is to
be established at Lawrence. The
Mile Laos Lake Pioneer is authority
for the statement that the Hall Broth
ers, John Foley and L. 7. Grady, all
conservative and reliable business
men of Foley, have completed ar
engagements for opening a bank at
Lawrence. Radical anti-railroad leg
islation may have deterrent effect
on the 500 management, but the sur
face indications all tend in one direc-
tion-that the road will be built. The
500 must have a direct route of it's
own from the west to Duluth in order
to successfully compete for business
with the Great Northern and North
ern Pacific.

Another Veteran Mustered Out.

Charles B. Rogers, a gallant veteran
OF the war of the rebellion, died at his
home in Vineland near Cove on the
evening of the Both ult. Mr.. Rogers
had been ailing for some time and his
death was not unexpected. The re-
mains were brought to Princeton and
inferred in Oak Knoll cemetery Tues
day. His comrades of Wallace T.
Rines Post, G. A. r. No. 142, of
which he was charter member and
past commander, had charge of the
funeral.
Charles B. Rogers was born in
Brownsville, Maine, Nov. l, 1874. He
enlisted in Company II, Eleventh
Maine Inf. in 1861, participated in
twenty battles with his regiment. was
wounded and for a time incarcerated
in Libby prison. In 1867 he moved to
Pennsylvania, and on July 3, 1870,
was married to Mrs. Ermina Hewitt of
Ridgway that state. In 1879 the family
settled in Princeton and remained
here for twelve years, then removed to
Vineland, where Mr.. Rogers resided
until the time of his death. Eight
sons and three daughters we're born to
Mr.. and Mrs. Rogers. Three sons
and Mrs. Rogers survive.
Mr.. Rogers was a kind-hearted,
straightforward man and intensely
patriotic. He stood high in the esti-
nation of all who knew him. Much
sympathy is expressed for Mrs.
Rogers and family.

Sunday night, and despite the fierce
blizzard that was raging on Friday
the boys did good work at the Jesmer
fire. If possible more liberal induce
ments should be offered the boys and
they should meet regularly and have
practice runs occasionally. It is so
easy for an onlooker to find fault and
criticize, but it should be remembered
that it is largely labor of love on the
part of the fire laddies.

out costing them anything, let it pro-
vide the state highway commission
with fund of a million dollars for

One way to do this has been suggested
by Hon. r. G. Dunn and that is to
provide for five cent tonnage tax on
iron ore and turn the money over to
the highway commission. This looks
like good thing if it can be done

VILLAGE COUNCIL,

High School Assembly Room To Be Fur
nished Electric Lights Free.
The village council met in regular
session on Monday evening with
Messrs. Cooney, Craig, Chapman and
Borden present.
E. L. Mcmillan, on behalf of the
school board, asked that the village
furnish free of charge electric lights
for the high school assembly room to
be used upon the occasion of meetings
such as that of debating clubs, etc.
Mr.. Mcmillan said that oil lamps
were now used and that electric lights
would obviate the danger attendant
upon the use of such lights.
Electrician Burbank said that the
actual cost of installing wires in the
high school assembly room would be
$3.50.
After due deliberation it was decided
that the village furnish the fixtures
and labor at cost and the lights free.
J. F. Sullivan of the Riverside hotel
asked the council to make lower rate
for electric lights than that now paid
by him. He said that he used large
number of such lights and that he
could not afford to pay the regular
rate. The president appointed a com
mittee consisting of Messrs. Chapman
and Craig to investigate and report at
special meeting to be held next
Monday evening".
Councilman Chapman moved that
all hydrants in the village be re-
packed after every fire. The motion
prevailed. ....-. f.'.'.5
The council then adjourned to Mon
day evening, February II. ~
