FAN FOOD.

The Lakeville Journals report of the game which was forfeited to Canaan when Lakeville players refused to con- tinue the game is fair and. impartial one until this statement appears:
 "A ball was batted, the Canaan short stop fumbled, it went through him hit ting Ellis on the leg. In the meantime Stuart had come home tieing the score which stood 3 to 8. Canaan claimed the ball was dead and that Stuart should be sent back to third. Lakeville con- ceded Ellis to be out, but refused to send Stuart back, claiming that when the short stop touched the ball, Stuart had a perfect right to score"
 Sorry to be obliged to disagree with The Journal but we say the ball was not touched by the Canaan short stop, the short stop says so and everyone else who saw the play says so except the Lake vile contingent and even some of these say so. AS matter of absolute fact Lakeville had not the slightest reason for not continuing the game. THE NEWS maintains that the umpires made the only decesions that could be made under the circumstances. This news paper will not uphold sharp practice or dishonest tactics on the ball field on the part of the Canaan team or any other but right Is right and in this instance right was clearly on the side of Canaan and the umpires. We are exceedingly sorry, however, that the dispute arose.
 Last week twas Salisbury that gave Lakeville the fright. A score of and ? shows good playing on the part of Sails bury players although they lost the game.
 At the meeting of the league directors held last week, it was decided to play ! the latter half of the schedule under the same arrangement as the first half, in other words the teams will meet in the same rotation as during the first ten weeks of the season which expire wltf the August 1st game. There will how ever be game on Labor Day and also, 8 game on Saturday of that week.
 There surely is 8 hoodoo following the Salisbury base ball team which has thus far prevented them from winning a game of ball. They should have scored g victory against Cornwall and on Satur day in the game with Lakeville unfor tunate high throws cost them two runs The courage of the Salisbury boys ir continuing in face of this poor luck is te be commended. They are improving ir their playing and will be heard from later.

Rare Coincidence

ndFe -SOinClQenCe
 Bryan was determined to have for a running mate man whose name ends with n. His preference was Johnson but he is satisfied with Kern. Possibly he is a trife superstitious. He knows full we'll that all presidential candidates whose surnames ended with the letter II with a e-presidential candidate whose surname likewise ended with n, were elected. Look over the list:
 Jefferson-Clinton.
 Madison-Clinton.
 Jackson-Calhoun.
 Jackson-Van Buren.
 Lincoln-Hamlin.
 Lincoln-Johnson.
 Harrison-Morton.-N York Press. True enough. And by wonderful coin cidence presidential candidates whose surnames didn't end with the letter n, whose running mates had names which also didn't end with Il, were likewise elected. Witness: Polk-Dallas.
 Grant-Colfax.
 Hayes-Wheeler.
 Garfield-Arthur.
 Cleveland-Hendriok
 McKinley-Roose
 Roosevelt-Fairbanks
 It's really an important and significant coincidence and ought to have a great effect on the betting. Post.

DECLARE FOR LOOS German Alliance Wants Him to Run for Senator from

 Candidate.

Charles Kellar, head of the labor bureau in Bridgeport and one of the most prominent Germans in the state. was in the city last week speaking with republican leaders, among whom was Col Ullman, asking him on behalf of the Germans 10 put Alderman Emil I,oos on the ticket as senator from the Eighth district. He said that the German Alliance, meeting few weeks ago at Meriden. endorsed Mir. Loos for the position.
 Beside MT. Loos the two most prom inently mentioned men for the nomina- ton in the district are Frank S But terworth. who is now senator, and cap, tain Luzerne Ludington. IL Is under. stood that If Mir. Butterworth wants to run again he will have the solid delegation from the Ninth ward and the few others necessary to give him the nomination.
 It is also understood that Captain Ludineton will not run for the nom. nation against Senator Butterworth, but that if MT. Butterworth declines to stand for g renomination he will enter into contest for the place with Alder man Loos.

is now engaged in farming near
Fruita. Mr.. Thompson testified to
being on his way from Grand juno
tion to Fruita one moonlight night
at a late hour. He was riding horse
back. He testified that at a point
near the Kinney home he met
wagon just as it turned out of road
leading from the river and from
toward the island. On the wagon
was Luther Kinney and another man.
The wagon seemed to be loaded with
something bulky all of which was
covered with wagon sheet. Mr..
Thompson said that sticking out from
under the cover on one side was the
leg of beef. He saw stains on the
wagon cover. He said nothing to
the men but passed on. That was
on Saturday night in September.
The next Monday he was on the road
again and met Kinney on a wagon
and in the wagon, which was prac-
tically empty, was wagon cover.
The above was the most important
of Thompson's testimony.
Following him f. ID. Parks, man
ager of the Seioer Cattle company
told of his relations to the company
and told of visiting the islana and
finding some of his cattle thereon.
1nere were one or two other wit
nesses of no great importance.
The defense offered no testimony.
The arguments were made this af-
ternoon.
A motion was made by the defense
to dismiss the case on the grounds
that the evidence was insufficient.
The court took the motion under ad
visement until Saturday morning at
10 o'clock.
