LOOKING AT BUILDING MATERIAL
Government Geologist Investigating Va
rious Supplies.

r. Nelson Dale OF the geological sur
vev is in Bratt leboro making an IN
vestigation of the sources and kinds OF
building material that might be avail
able in this vicinity for use IN the con
struction of the new federal building to
be erected in Brattleboro. The smoke
nuisance from the locomotives OF the
Boston & Maine and Central Vermont
roads will make it rather doubtful
about the building being constructed OF
marble or granite as Mr.. Dale has hau
particular instructions to make a STUDY
of all such conditions as would tend
to make a building age in appearance
faster than might be expected under
normal conditions. While the plans OF
the supervising architect of the treas
ury department, James Knox Iayior'
have not reached point that ne can
state definitely what he Will rec9mmeIno .
IN the way of architecture for Brattle
boro Is federal building it is quite likely
that the building will be largely upon
the lines of the federal building at Bur-
ington.
Mr.. Dale in company with John Pei
lett left this morning for trip TO
several quarry properties with view
to making an examination OF the stone.
While Mr.. Dale has not forwarded ms
recommendation to Washington he IS OF
the opinion that the building should be
built of brick of a dark straw color
trimmed with West Dummerston blue
granite. While such building would
contrast well with the library building
it would be rather out of tone with the
Unitarian church which will be Just
across the street Mr.. Dale will proba-
bly, recommend such material.
Mr.. Dale. who has been engaged in
field work for the geological survey
in Vermont for several years recently
discovered graphite in the town of Rip
ton. He will 90 to Richford this week
to make similar investigation in con
nection with the new federal building
to be built in that place.

spain's Troubles at Home and Abroad.

The popular outbreak in Barcelona,
Spain, last week resulted in serious riots,
pillage and murder, committed by the
excited populace, against whom troops
were finally sent. after the police had
given up. Bloody fighting followed. The
cavalry herded the rioters into square
where the artillery moved them down
by the hundred. Many buildings were
DESTROYED. The troops gained the upper
hand and restored order, but elsewhere
there are serious outbreaks. imperilling
the monarchy. The movement seems to
be the elimination of resentment
against the government and present
economic conditions The Spanish
troops in Morocco lost 5000 in their re-
cent defeat by the MOors. who, from ad-
vantageous position, shot them down as
they were emerging from a detile. The
Moors hope to drive the SpaniardS into
the sea. Spain has called out her en-
tire army of 100000 men for service
AT home and in Morocco.

Of Yesterday

Play In the Wall Cup tennis tour
nament advanced another stage yes
terday when some four matches
were played of during the after
noon. None of the sets were very
close, and there were sevral live
ones.
All the matches were won by two
sets straight. and of these the one
between A. l.. Lowrey and ]. Hurd
was the best fought out. Lowrey
won by score of 6-1, Ga. and
showed some good form.
c. G. Bockus had no difficulty In
defeating ID. w. Anderson. and took
two sets straight to one game. T..
s. Gee met r. B. Booth and the lat
ter only got four games in the two
sets.
Captain Low, who Is to meet Gee
this afternoon, beat J. Macaulay
60. 60. +. l.. Sinclair was return
ed winner over w. l.. Whitney.
owing to the latter defaulting.
The tournament is In a very in
teresting stage just now. and the
match between Gee and Low this
afternoon will decide which OF the
two men will get into the finals.
There will be another interesting
game this afternoon when Bockus
and Sinclair meet. The winner. OF
this match will play Lowrey to see
who is eligible to meet the winner of
the Low-Gee match In the Anal.

Big League Ball
On Saturday

Things are getting into shape for
the start of big ball at the League
grounds. and the prospects OF a
short season of snappy ball look
bright.
Eddie Fernandez and Charlie Falk
are doing all in their power to in
terest the public in the series, and
today they are making a personal
canvass Of the business houses OF
I the city in order to see how many
season tickets can be disposed OF.
Everybody is ready for big ball,
and the opening game between Dia-
mond Head and Punahou on Satur-
day next should be rafting good
one, and. one that will remind the
fans of the good old games that
were watched by crowded grand
stand and packed bleachers.
The Hawaiian band will be on
hand on Saturday, and Captain Ber-
ger is composing a special waltz
song to commemorate the occasion.
From the present indications the
old grounds will look something like
they did year or two ago. when in
terest in the doing OF the Puns, Jew
els and Rams ran so high.
There will only be one game each
day, and that should be plenty, rs
long rs the standard of the play is
kept up. The Diamond Heads and
Punahous are capable Of putting up
great game of ball, and as they
have been practicing hard for some
time, the meeting Of the old oppon-
ents should be well worth watching.
Lorrin Andrews will be the Official
scorer, and as ne is an expert ut the
game, his records will be always on
the right side. The sale of season
tickets is going on at Gunst Eakin's
store every day from IL n. m. till I
p. m, and Eddie Fernandez IS al
ways there to give any Information
that may be required as to seats
and the prices thereof.
Bert Bowers will be umpire for
the games, and his decisions are
too well known for anyone to kick
at his appointment.
On Saturday two tally-hos will
leave the drillshed, and one will be
occupied by the players. and the
other by the band. The Punahou
team will be as follows: McCorris-
ton. C; J. Williams. p; A. @. Mar
callino, 1b; w. Hogs. 2b; Hender-
son, 3b; Medcraft, IS; c. Cooke, If;

Certainty Now

No what Jack johnson has put
up his money to cover Jim Jeffries'
forfeit. everybody can rest assured
that. barring accidents, the fight will
take place.
But still. should Ketchell defeat
the negro, peculiar state of af.
fairs would arise. and nobody would
know exactly where things are. And
to make things worse, what will
happen II Langford whips Ketcheil
before johnson ond Stanley hitch
up?
Still. there is one thing to be
thankful for, and that Is that things
have come to head at last, and
"Dearie" will now have to face the
man who has been forced by public
opinion to come out and do battle
once more.
All sorts OF rumors are going the
rounds now about Jeff's condition.
and one writer states that the big
fellow was putting and blowing
after n two-round spar in a vaude-
VILE show. That does not look as
II Jim is in any kind OF shape Mt
present, and shows that he will have
to do long course OF training to
have any show against the negro
II the latter is in condition.
And right here the question asis-
es: what about Lii Arth's FRANKS?
He is reported to be right out OF
condition and treading the primrose
path that beats all the pugs for
sure.
1t certainly would be ludicrous to
see two broken winded, out OF con-
dition, fat and fabby would-be
champions shaping up to one anoth-
er for purse somewhere in the
neighborhood of $4,000.
All the same the men will have
plenty of time torain properly-if
they will do SO and the fight Is
going to draw the biggest crowd Of
this or any other country.

Boxing Notes and
Training Stunts

After all, there will be pre-
liminary to the Sullivan ordell box
ing contest, and II will be put up
by kid" Terry Of the IroQuois and
Bugler Sarconi from the marine
camp.
These two men have been anxious
to get together for some time now,
and they should provide a good live
ly contest. Both the lads are known
to the fight fans. and, rs they are
willing young fellows. the prelimi-
nary should stir the spectators up IN
anticipation of the big match.
The principals in the main event
have started easy work and will
quicken things up next week.
There was general wish that
there should be a preliminary to the
star event on Saturday week. and
the management has done well in
arranging one. as otherwise lot of
people would have stayed away from
the boxing show.

ual. will get permission to train out
