CHURCH AGAINST AUTOMOBILE
Pittsford Methodists Trying to Pro-
tect Their Lawn

tect Their Lawn
Another move was reached in the
bitter fight which is being waged at
Pittsford by the Methodist Episcopal
church association to prevent Pierce
j. Flemming of that town from driving
his automobile over its lawn in the
shape of an injunction served Thurs
day by Deputy Sheriff E. s. Whitaker
OF Rutland. The injunction was or
dered by Superior Judge w. H. Tay-
lor OF Hardwick on motion of Attorney
M. c. Weber Of this city, counsel for
the church association. 1t restraints
Mr.. Flsmming from driving his auto
mobile across the church grounds and
leaves him no way, 1t is understood
here, OF getting his machine to and
from the barn as the door thereof
opens directly on the church lawn.
There has been considerable ex
Icitement over the incident since 1t be.
/ came known short time ago that
the church association objected to the
use of the lawn of Mr.. Flemming and
the people OF Pittsford have been
watching for developments with inter
est. Mr.. Flemming took the ground
that 1t was necessary for him to cross
the lawn in order to reach his barn
with the automobile, and therefore
paid little attention to protests. Re
Gently the church people got together
and had chains placed across the
lawn, but these and small fence
were torn down, 1t is alleged, by Mr.
Flemming.

THEIR FIRST VICTORY

The Farley's Pharmacy baseball
team played its third game and scored
It's first victory last Sunday afternoon
winning from Spokane Bridge by d
talley of 10 to 3. The game was
played on the home diamond aud was
witnessed by large crowd.
The visitors were handicapped to
some extent by the infariority OF
their battery, their regular pitcher
and catcher not being able to be
present. Ben Brigger pitched good
game for the home team and Baker
occupied the posl:.:o;; behind the bat,
while there was some good team work
In various stages OF the game.
Except for the batteries the teams
appeared to be pretty we'll matched,
but good pitching and good batting
gave the home team the lead 10
fourth inning which they easily kept.
The biggest sensation of the day
came in the last half of the eighth
when the scores came in SO fast that
it was difficult to keep account of
them.
