> MIR. George Clark Of the Elks show
ed his first signs OF strength today,
having the first heavy vote cast for
him since the opening of the contest
and the largest vote cast for the
day. No one has, for moment, fig
ured the Elk candidate as laggard
most OF the other contestants feeling
certain that this order Would soon
line up to the support of their can
didate, so that the vote cast for this
contestant Is not surprise to amy
ore. Mr.. Clark has a powerful or
ganizatlon behind him and his show
runner of future strength and a

ifast company" George Hagemann
received coupon vote OF over 100
votes. and he will bear watching from

a good vote az did several other gem
tlemen.
The general interest in the contest
is Increasing at a very rapid pace.
The contestants are all beginning to
take an active interest and are doing
business every day. They realize that
the contest Is going to be exciting
and will interest almost every one IN
Marion. They also have an abiding
faith in Its fairness. They know full
well The Mirror could not afford to
have 1t otherwise. So all have arriv-
ed at the conclusion that this friend
ly measuring OF strength of the pro-
gresaive orders Is going to be the
most talked-of thing Marion has had
. for many months, and that much
good will result to the organizations
from the high-class publicity gained
through this friendly fight-and the
lodge piano and the diamonds are
also taken into consideration by all.
They are stnictly worth while.

Where to Address Them.

Dover, n. H., is to be congratulated on
securing the services of Mr.. Gray as man
ager of the base ball team in that city
for the season. His wide experience in
athletics and his knowledge Of players
peculiarly fit him for this work He has
gained the confidence and respect of a
host of friends here who wish him all
success in his new field and anticipate
with pleasure his return next fall.
Toby Matthews returns to his position
as engineer on the New York Central X.
r., and it's safe bet that he won't wear
out any whistle cords, footing down
brakes" unless the call is urgent.
Mr. Doyle, after spending some time
in Haverhill, Mass, and Manchester, n.
H., goes to Old Orchard, Me-, to join the
shore life saving crew The sound of the
"honk, honk" has its lure for Heiney,
and he will be found at his garage in
Bayside, L. l., where the buzz wagons
will be his only thought until the frost
is on the punkins." Hollenbeck has
returned to his position at Cattskill, N.
Y, and Swenson will be found at 20
West 9th ST., New York City. Jack
Fox, whom we have come to know quite

Easy to Mix This.

What will appear very interesting to
many people here is the article taken
from a New York daily paper, giving a
simple prescription, as formulated by a
noted authority, who claims that he has
found a positive remedy to cure almost
any case of backache or kidney or blad-
der arrangement, in the following simple
prescription, if taken before the stage of
Bright's disease:
Fluid Extract of Dandelion, one-half
ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce
Compound Syrup of Sarsaparilla, three
ounces. Shake we'll in bottle and take
in teaspoonful doses after each meal and
again at bedtime.
A well-known druggist here at home,
when asked regarding this prescription,
stated that the ingredients are all harm
less, and can be obtained at a small cost
from any good prescription pharmacy,
or the mixture would be put up if asked
to do so. He further stated that while
this prescription is often prescribed in
rheumatic affections with splendid re-
suits, he could see no reason why it
would not be a splendid remedy for kid
ney and urinary troubles and baCkache,
as it has a peculiar action upon the
kidney structure, cleansing these most
important organs and helping them to
slft and filter from the blood the foul
acids and waste matter which cause sick
ness and suffering. Those of our readers
who suffer can make no mistake in Civ
ing Il trial.

BANQUET AND DANCE.

Manager Gray and the Company d
basket ball team were the guests of
honor at banquet given by the basket
ball association and friends at the
Avenue House Saturday evening. The
guests were entertained before the spread
by F. O. French in his own inimitable
manner. Covers were laid for 40 and
a sumptuous banquet was served by
Landlord Goode. Those in attendance
were representative business and pro-
fessional men of st. Johnsbury, who
gathered on this occasion to show their
appreciation of a winter OF sport, such
as has been furnished by Manager Gray
and his well selected team of athletes,
and it was purely informal After the
banquet the evening was rounded out at
Pythian Hall, where Madam Brock 5
orchestra furnished music for a farewell
reception and dance. This function was
attended by over 100, and after that
came leave takings at the station, which
were not, however, in the spirit of good
bye, but till then.

A rest of night and day did wonders
for the visiting team and they came back
Thursday night confident that they
would wipe ST. Johnsbury off the basket
ball map, and it certainly looked for a
time as if they would make good. AS
it was they out-played the locals
through the whole of the first period
and the score at the end was 10 and 8,
with Company D on the short end, and
this state of affairs continued well into
the second before the locals came to their
senses and put stop to it, and then 1t
was all one way to the end. Petrlck
started the scoring within minute after
the whistle sounded, and then ensued the
sharpest passing, counter-passing and
floor work by the visitors that has ever
been seen on the local floor, which called
forth round after round of applause and
had the locals in daze. Muller got the
next and was quickly followed by
"Kiddo" who was playing the game OF
his life. c. Wright stung a good one
and Swenson repeated. Biggane got
away with the next and then Petrick
came back for another. The Swede had
only been resting and he came to the
front with a beautiful long distance shot
that got the crowd Pat Gagged one and
finished the fastest period ever seen in
Armory hall A point on fouls made the
locals score nine and the visitors hve
from the floor gave them 10.
The whistle was the signal for Petrick
to start firing again and he made good
with the first one, and then came
Heiney. snowshoes and ALL and before
the audience knew what was doing he
had Gagged the sphere twice in succession
and put the Company one to the good,
10 to IL. Fox shot beauty and again
the only representative OF the 'Fader-
land" who ever wore war paint dropped
the ball into the north basket twice and
things began to look good from local
standpoint. The two points on fouls
awarded the locals made the score II to
II. The visitors still had some fight lett,
however. and before the period ended
Biggane and Muller each Gagged one and
the point on fouls brought their score to
II.
The locals showed their staying
qualities and in the final period OF the
game and of the year put up the
prettiest exhibition they have ever given
and PLAYED their opponents off their feet
and wound up the season in a blaze OF
glory, Henschel started right in shoot
ing at the basket and landed the hrst

The Jersey City bunch landed here with

ray and their long list of victories over
some OF the best teams in the country
there were those OF the fans who felt lust
the slightest apprehension as to the re-
suit OF the games that were to close Com
pany D's most remarkable season, a sea-
son OF successes that has in all probabili-
ty never been equaled. The fast passing
and clever floor work, for which the visi-
tors have long been noted, was started
as soon as the whistle blew, and the
locals were plainly on the defensive for
the first five minutes, but it takes more
than an exhibition Juggling with the

Doyle was out for baskets Wednesday
night and he got just what he went after,
10 of them, although Manager Petrick
sent three of his finest in against the
Irishman. Some said Pat used the
"Sneezerine' treatment on them, but
don't believe it. 1t was simply the sur
vival of the ittest' and Pat was it.
Swenson, who has been swelling his
average OF late, came up with nine good
ones while Muller. who was in the same
corner, got sturg which interpreted
means he failed to connect.
Matthews came next in line with seven
to his credit, and they were all of the
spectacular order, as they necessarily had
to be with the big Wright sticking to him
like the bark to a tree. Incidentally
Wright rung a couple.
OF course the game wouldn't be COM
plete without one of those contributions
by the Dutchman that always gets the
gallery going. Heiney went them one
better this time, however. and after a
few gyrations in mid, air he landed two
beauties, both of them long distance
shots, while Petrick, the clever little for
ward who opposed him, stopped at one.
Jack Fox found hard nut to crack in
young Biggane, who played the whole
game with both arms around the East
Boston man, and how the Jerseyite found
time to cage two to Jacks one is one OF
the mysteries of the game. The summary:
