A TESTIMONIAL
Tribute to Popular Pastor of st.
PauI'S Catholic Church
FROM MALE MEMBERS
Fifty Pensioners Give Fr. A. Art
Pleasant Surprise and Pass
Evening Agreeably

On Friday evening, Jan. l about so
men, members of st. Paul Catholic
church, gathered at the parochial
school hall for the purpose of cele-
bi ating Rev. A. Arzts 10th annivers-
ary as pastor of st. Paul's church.
The nature of the party was a sur
prise on the Rev. Father and a smoke
social for the assembled men. After
all had assembled, Rev. Father ART
was called at about O'Clock from
the residence to the school hall. Up
on arriving, Peter RoBischen, secre-
tary of the parish. made a short ad-
dress of welcome in a few words,
stating the object of the gathering,
rendering a vote of thanks in the
name of the congregation and at the
close he presented the popular priest
with a $50 gold piece as a remem-
brance of the occasion.
Rev. Father Arzt responded at some
length, going over. the labors per-
formed in the past two years. He
urged the members to hold together
and work as one in the future; as in
the past, using the old proverd In
Unity There is Strength"
The evening was spent in social
chat and the party dispersed at about
1880, both pastor and parishoners
having spent a very enjoyable even
ing. !,

There are matrons over different

keep the children tidy and dressea
neatly. There are seamstresses who
teach and aid in the making of the

There are engineers who tend to

DANGEROUS DANDRUfF
Will Make America BaIdheaded Ma
ton If Not Checked

NJ. Pasteur, the great French Physi-
clan of Paris, once said: 81 believe
we shall one day rid the world Of all
diseases caused by germs"
Dandruff caused by germs, fact ac-
cepted by all physicians.
Dandruff is the root of all hair evils.
If il were not for the little destructive
germs working with persistency
worthy of a better cause, there would
be no badness.
Partisan Sage will kill the dandruff
germs and remove dandruff in two
weeks or money back
w. L. Gokay guarantees it. 1t will
stop itching scalp, falling hair and
make the hair grow thick and album
dant.
1t puts life and lustre into the hair
and prevents it from turning gray
It is hair dressing par excellence,
daintily perfumed and free from
grease sickness. 1t is the favorite
with women of taste and culture who
know the social value of facinating
hair.
A large bottle costs only so cents
at leading druggists everywhere and
in Bennington by w. l.. Gokay. The
girl with the Auburn hair Is on every
package.

TY cosB's BASE HITS
Oetroiter Tops List With 2o4-only
Player Past Two Century Mark

There seems to be little left in lead
ing honors OF the major league for the
redoubtable Ty Cobb of the Detroits
to carry off. A new distinction
achieved by him the past week was
that of passing the second century
mark in base hits. his double game
stunt of Saturday making his aggre-
gate OF safeties 204. There is
chance for Collins of the Athletics to
get into the 200 frame, his record now
standing at 1877 but no other major
Lacquer will be likely to touch the sec
ond hundred. Crawford of Detroit
is the next nearest to the goal with
175. In the National League Wagner
has recorded 1862 and Clarke and Mi
chell are tied at 1853
OF the young players who are break
ing into big league company by the
score. none has yet shown the batting
qualities of Gardner of the New York
Americans. In his IL games he has
hit hard and freely and earned place
in the list of leading dozen. Birming-
ham of Cleveland returns to the com
pany of the sluggers and Griggs of st.
Louis and Lelivelt of Washington fall
below the standard.
In the National League there is but
one chance among the hitters in the
leading dozen. Beaumont of Boston
has dropped out and Jacklitsch of the
Philies regained place.
Three American league players are
now numbered among the century
run-getters. Bush, in the race and
Collins of the Athletics having just
rounded out his hundredth with the
class of the week. Leach of the Pr
ates keeps up his mad dash as the
leader of the major leaguers and it Is
altogether probable that he will not
be headed this season.
Cobb slowed down greatly in his
base stealing last week, registering
but one. Still his lead of Is is such
as cannot now be overcome by any of
the speedsters in either eague.

OUR GREATEST WOMAN FARMER
DAUGHTER OF &. II. Hartman to Man
age Enormous Estate

Under an arrangement now being
effected for the management of the
E. II. Hartman estate, Miss Mary
Hartman, the dead magnate's eldest
child. will become the
greatest woman farmer in the United
States. if not in the world. She nov
virtually has control of Arden farm,
consisting of 10000 acres.
Close by Arden her father quietly ac
quired before his death other tracts
amounting 10 10000 acres. The ex-
act locations OF these tracts is not
now publicly known, as title to them
passed in the name of corporation
with which Mr.. Hartman was not
known to have been connected. For
reasons of their own, members of the
family do not care at this time to re
veal the holdings. This information,
however, will necessarily be made
public with the appraisal of the estate.
There are now under actual cult
vation at Arden approximately 5000
acres. The bulk of the huge farm is
waste land Most of this or about
10000 acres will be donated by Mrs.
Hartman, as was the wish of her hus-

contain several lakes of marked nat

Mary Hartman at Arden alone farm
Of $4,000 acres to care for. Altogeth-
er she will have supervision of farm
of $4,000 acres.
Already she has taken hold of the
task with characteristic Hartman en-
ergy and skill She is directing per-
sonally the unfinished work of road
making. terracing the hills, landscape
gardening, etc, just as had been plan
ned by herself and father jointly. In
a smart trap drawn by a high-step-
ping cob, she daily drives over the
farm, giving instruction in detail to
the foremen of nearly 400 men now at
work.
The Arden Dairy Farms company, a
corporation with a capitalization of
100000 has her special care. II is
now paying concern and it is Miss
Harriman's desire to increase it's div
idents for the coming year. The
dairy products are derived from $50
registered cows. The butter is sold
every day in bulk in New York City
under contracts.
On the 5000 acres now under cul
tivation, a variety of crops are rails
ed TIE principal ones are corn. oats
wheat and rye. Considerable truck
gardening is done. too. onions being
specially of this branch of the Ar
den farm productions, 1t is said tC
be Miss Harriman's intention to bring
at least another thousand acres at Ar
den under cultivation this year.
Miss Hartman, from early girlhooC
has been extremely fond of country
life. She never has cared particular
