has aroused much interest in the sport

mittee which attempted to organize a semi
professional team last spring is now pro-
noting the scheme for league to include
Brattleboro and several of the adjoining
towns. Letters have been written to
baseball men in Bellows Falls, Keene and

Caught Trout Wrapped in Dollar Bill

No stranger catch has been reported by
any fisherman in years than that which
Arthur Spencer and several friends OF
Shelburne Falls, Mass, solemnly assert
was made by Mr. Spencer in a Buckland
brook last week. This surprising reward
of piscatorial ability was nothing less than
a l0inch trout neatly wrapped in dol
lar bill. According to the story told by
the members of the party of anglers, Mr..
Spencer was fishing near jam of logs
when he felt the tug of the trout and as
he drew his catch from the water, its
head showed through treasury note Of
the denomination of ST. 1t is believed
that the line cut the wet bill, which may
have been lost in the stream, and that
the fish was drawn partly through the
aperture While those who have heard
the story of the catch are inclined to re-
ceive it with look of wonder, if not in
credulity, each member of the party is
ready to give his personal word in vouch-
ing for its truth This is admittedly the
championship fish story of the season and
the strangest part of the affair is that the
narrators are men of high repute for We
racity, and, further, that they never use
any liquid bait.

Annual Meeting of woman's Club.

The 18th annual meeting OF the Brat
| tlehoro Woman's club was held in Grange
hall Wednesday afternoon. After the re.
ports OF officers and standing committees
had been gwen, tea was served and a
pleasant social time enjoyed. The reports
of officers and chairmen OF the various
committees showed the efficient work
which the club has done in a quiet way
during the past year. The total mem
bershlp OF the club at present is 23l-
the third largest club in the state. The
program for this year has been an eXcep-
tonally good one. The meetings have
been on subjects of general interest and
in most cases have been open to the pub
lie on payment of small fee. The club
has never before had a list Of speakers
which included so many well known and
noted men, each of whom was authority
on the subject on which he spoke. Among
them were such men as Rev. ;. NJ.
Crothers Rev. Bradley Gilman and Frank
l.. Greene.
The club financially and club members
have given assistance in teaching classes
and in doing all possible in the interests
of the club. The civics committee has
been instrumental in having a town tree
warden chosen and also has begun. excel
lent work for the identifying of some
unsightly spots in town. The spot known
as 'the glen on Elm street is to be
cleaned; vines will be planted around the
waterhouse, and an iron settee will be
placed in the Walnut street park. Through
the efforts of the Kindergarten commit
tee the free kindergarten has been the
recipient of an excellent piano. Besides
the daily lunches furnished the kinder
garten by club members, assistance has
been given in many ways.

when the heavy hitting dam-builders
