Palisades VS.. Edgewater.


The second tennis match of the p.
y. G. was with the Edgewater Club,
the first match being between Tenney.
of Edgewater, and Logan, of Palisade.
1t was Il setto to remember and was
/ filled with intense interest from be-
ginning to end The day was fright
fully warm, and the play fast and
furious. Logan won, but had his hands
full. 1t was even up all the way
through and no ones game till the
last set was over. AS Il hard fought
contest it was Il wonder. Logan's
Lawford stroke was very effective,
while his net work WAS Il shade the
better. Although on passes the con-
testants were about even. Logan's
smashes were better than Tenney's. the
latter'S lobs appeared to better advan-
tage. The first set went to Logan.
1G-S. On the second set Logan weak

his net work lacked ginger. while Ten

Brady and Darby. of paliSade. next
played SaXton and Tenney. of Edge

was in erratic mood. Although Saxton

.BOsTONs FIGHTING
 DISTRICT ATTORNEY
JOHN B. MORAN, CANDIDATE FOR GOVERNOR OF MASSAcHU- SETTS, TELLS OF HIS
 UPHILL FIGHT.
Single handed He Won His Campaign For District Attorney of Boston With No Party to Back Him.

John B. Moran, who ran for gover- nor of Massachusetts on the democratic ticket two years ago and who last fall conducted a most phenomenal, single handed campaign for district attorney of Boston in which he was successful. yesterday gave out his first statement to any newspaper since his arrival in Phoenix three days ago.
 In his campaign for the governship MT. Moran, accompanied by George Fred Williams, stumped the state. For six Seeks he made four speeches each night and at the end of the campaign found that he had completely lost the use of his voice. His defeat by Curtis Guild, jr., the present governor, did not deter him from becoming again the candidate for district attorney of BOs- ton last fall. Unable longer to take

He was not even supported by the leaders of the democratic party, but he had pub lie sentiment behind him and drew votes from all parties.
 MT. Moran. who is staying at the Ho- tel Adams, gave a brief outline of the three campaigns which brought him in to national prominence and stamped him as single handed fighter who won in spite of obstacles and handicaps
 Three years ago on the death of the city attorney who had held the office for 26 years the democratic and repub- lican parties united on a man who had been an assistant in the district at torney's office for 15 years.

New Milford.

Upon the banks of one of Conneeti. cuts most charming rivers. the noble
 Housat0nie, stands the old historic
 town of New Milford. Fresh from celebrating it's bi.eentennial, an event
 Of such grand importance in the his- tory of our county, It is gathering to itself new yig0r and inspiration in it's energetic effort for better and greater things, as it looks forward with pro- phetic glance and earnest hope to the possibilities and ceftainties of the future, and, dear interested reader, to
 the very near future too. Surely the harnessing of our old neglected Housa-
 tonic with it's many contributing water powers must be very soon successfully accomplished. No considerable stream in the state holding in it's embrace such environous possibilities along the
 line of power. has so long escaped the attention of the keen visioned develop CT of the natural resources of New England, and the Commercial club of New Milford with it's large member ship of prominenG and influential citi- zens is ever ready to cheerfully render all aid and information in its power to interested capital and energy looking in our direction. This club, with a | membership of nearly one hundred, was much gratifed to receive recent call from its oldest member, Alanson M. Garfield. Mir Garfield celebrated with the town, last summer. his one hundredth birthday, and while New Milford was matter of hundred years | older, they seemed to be Hail Fellow we'll met" and "hob-nobbed" together in right royal fashion, giving audience to the sedate governor and his gorgeous "ancient and honorable foot guards" and each vieing with the other in cele- brating their dual record of longevity, in most fitting and dignified manner as became their age. Misguided and misinformed persons are accustomed to refer to the infirmities of age. We'll, that depends. If the interested reader happens to be the fortunate possessor of 1.-Two Centuries of New Milford" pup lished in 1907, he will be startled at leastat the longevity list there recorded, remarkably and almost, if not quite unique among the Town Histories of New England. The school of the past, however, has closed its doors forever and the humble candle of hundred years ago has given place not only to the rapid stride of strenuous improve ment, but must needs to be burned at both ends as well, and it is safe to say that clubs of the future will rarely. if ever have occasion to refer to the visit of centenarian member, unassisted, on foot, and in his right mind to the extent of beating at checkers one of our brightest players of the Commer- cial club.
