OLDEST CHURCH ORGAN.
Found on Island of Gothland and in Excellent State of Preservation.

In the Baltic Sea, 40 miles from the mainland, lies the Swedish island Gothland, a Mecca for stu dents of early Gothic architecture. In Wisby alone, the chief town of the island. with it's population of 5000 souls, may be studied what remains of no less than 10 churches, some of which date from the elav- enth and twelfth centuries. The old est of them is the Church of the Holy Ghost, completed about 1O46.
 Professor Hennerberg, director in a German music school, and especial ly interested in the study of me dieval organs, visited 59 churches in Gothland, and in a little village called Sundre came upon the rem nant of what is unquestionably the oldest known organ in existence. The case alone has survived he fret of seven centuries, the holes for ped als and manuals are placed as in modern instruments, and inside one can see the chamber for the bel lows and judgs of their action; the exterior is adorned with paintings dating from about 1240.
 When this ancient instrument could longer serve its original pur- pose 1t was used as a sacristy, and for the safeguard of holy vessels and vestments was kept in careful repair. hence its excellent preserva- ton to our day.-Youth's COmpan- ion.

HENLEY A YEGGMAN.
Meriden Pitcher is Wanted by New
 York Police.


 Meriden, May 13,-The man whc fiimfammed the Merlden baseball management and called himself DOC Henley of San Francisco, late Of the Boston Americans, Is said to be the original baseball yeggman and ne wanted by the New York police foi grand larceny. Henley talked With the Meriden managers over the phone from Boston and convinced them that he was the Doc Henley who pitched for Frisco in the Pacine Coast league. Tony Pastor sized him up as ruby dill, for Tony says he didn't know how to put uni form on. On Saturday he was around town looking for place tc buy half dozen sweaters. He sald he liked to wear different one Tn each town in the league. Fine. Ills attempt at pitching at Holyoke on Friday was raw but no one suspect. ed that he was yeggman. He hau the gab when he struck Meriden and from the way he talked it was only question of going into the box and then the other teams would fade away. Great.
 As to the game in Holyoke, there was nothing to the frisky gent from Frisco. He told one of the Mer1den owners that it was so easy that ne was thinking of pitching with one hand tied behind his back. He sait he wouldn't accept any extra money | for winning his first game in this league but he would accept a new dir and he was told to go and pick it out That was before the game. Pretty soft. After he was yanked out in the third inning he still had his nerve for he told one of the players that he guessed he was using his noodle when he asked Halligan to take his place after finding his finger was too sore to use the knuckle ball.
 | Before he went to Holyoke, the management advanced him $50 te get some baseball necessities and tc send for Mrs Henley" On Saturday he looked at suite of rooms at tht Winthrop with a view of engaging them for the season. He was more likely getting line on loose thing in the apartments. The alleged pitcher skipped out Saturday evening and took Mrs Henley, with him Last night a message was receivet from the New York police to holt Harry Stark, alias Doc Henley, on charge of grand larceny. Henley lief his Meriden uniform in the hotel, fo which the Meriden managers ar thankful.

SUNDAY BASE BALL.
Mems League of New Britain Does
 ' Not Want It.

New Britain, May 13.-The Mems league of the South church held a free and easy" night at the South church chapel last evening. Presi- dent Frank N. Wells of the league presided at the meeting which fol- lowed a supper, much enjoyed by the members. As soon as the meet ing opened, three minute reports were given by the secretary, treasur- CT and heads of the committees. When new business was called for, George H. Dyson obtained the floor. He said. that an effort was being made for Sunday baseball playing at Electric field Manager Humphrey had been quoted as saying that he would promise to give the fans Sun- day baseball before the season was over. Last Sunday he went to Wa terbury on the trolley and there was gang playing ball in every open field, because they allowed league base ball there. If they had got to stand for such thing, and had state league base ball here, it would mean letting the bars down on every. thing else. A member of the league wrote to the Plainville ministers, in cluding the Catholic clergy, upor hearing Sunday base ball was pro posed, and asked them to. protest against it. Two of the ministers re piled that they had been to see tho selectmen. He saw by the papers that the Plainville selectmen hat made a statement that Sunday bas' ball would not be allowed while h. was selectman, if he had to call ol the constabulary of the county. Tn, American Sunday was about the onl. American institution left, and h, proposed to hold on to it, as long a
 he was selectman.

COOL HEADS THE TOPIC

Now that the beautiful summer is steadfastly approaching, the thought which comes to our minds is, how on earth can we keep cool? If you ask some people that question they would tell you to go soak your head in a pail of ice water, or else they would invite you into some shee'' bang and treat you to some fire wa ter or other feculent liquid which will not only burn your insides, but make you hot headed also. To the reader of this adv we offer a little monition and a few words on how to have a cool head. The human race all know there is nothing so refreshing on hot day as a nice cool drink, and they also know that it's not necessary to have ice in 1t to have it beneficial. For instance our buttermilk never has ice in it and it's always cool and it's always beneficial to your health. Of course ice drinks are refreshing for the time being, but if you drink hot cof- fee in the morning and hot tea every noon and night you'll find you'll be just as cool and blame sight more healthy all summer. Now if you never tried this way, try it this sum- mer and be sure and get the quality we sell at

 Andrew Sirica of Union street lost valuable horse last night. It went through the floor of the stable and fractured one of it's limbs. It was worth about $500 when it was able to go on all fours.
 Do you know anything about pay ing material? If you do now is the time to speak up before the board of public works takes definite action on the bids for permanent pavement in certain streets.
 The dog business was rushing at the town clerks office this morning and in order to meet the demand for tags the clerk and his assistants are going to work tonight They will do business between the hours of ' and and will also sell tags all day tomorrow. After that everybody who comes along to license a dog will have to pay $1 extra. Town Clerk Brett said to-day that there is no way out of this except he put up the extra dollar himself, so that any body who has pet and wants to keep it should make it point to see that it is registered not later than tomorrow.
