defeated a picked team from IRON
ton by the score, IA to 10. The
game was one of the prettiest seen
here this season, although fouling
was frequent. The teams were
nicely matched, the Ironton team
having slight advantage in height.
The local club overcame this, how
ever, by excellent teamwork. Mrs.
Newman Of Ironton refereed to the
satisfaction of players and spec
tators. There were no individual
stars. The Poplar Bluff guards
had their teamwork down perfect
ly, playing to each other in fine
fashion on blocking a throw, the
Ironton forwards having little
show for a second chance with the
ball. The local centers and for
wards also were ever in the game.
The Ironton guards played a star
game and every point they won
was hard earned. The centers
were a little weak in that they did
not sufficiently cover their OPP
ponents. The forwards worked
with zeal and skill. The battle
attracted a big crowd that seemed

Winsted Railroad Man
 Rounds Out 50 Years

winsted, July 3,-Nick Best. veteran station agent at Millerton, N. r., will have rounded out 50 years of contin- uous service with the New York Gen. traI railroad on Sunday. He began work at the Harlem station, just across the State line, July 4,1859, and has been ther ever since.
 When Best entered railroad life there were no telegraph lines and trains ran to what now is the site of Madison Square Garden, in New York city, the fastest train making the trip sometimes in four and one-half hours. Locomotives have grown to about four times their size then. Freight cars carried only eight to ten tons. Passenger cars seated twenty six persons. They were lighted by candles and heated by wood stoves burned wood and hauled about ten cars. They were only two passenger trains a day, but passengers could go by freight if they chose.

Hartford Senator Votes Against Corporation Tax, But Measure Is Adopted by Senate. 45 to 31.

Washington, July 3.-After an after noon spent in bitter wrangling over the parliamentary status of the corpo- ration tax amendment Senator Aldrich finally smoothed the way for a vote just before the hour for adjournment yesterday. The corporation tax was adopted as substitute for, the Bailey Cumnins income levy by a vote of 45 to 31-seven Republicans and all the Democrats opposing the substitution. Then the final vote incorporating the tax amendment into the Tariff Bill was carried by a vote of 60 to Il. Three Democrats and eight Republi- cans voted against the final acceptance of the Presidents compromise.
 Of the eleven negative votes eight were cast by Republicans and three by Democrats, the Republicans being Borah, Bristow, Bulkeley, Clapp, Cum mins, Deliver, Hepburn, and La Fol lette; and the Democrats, Chamberlain, and Shively.
 The Connecticut Senators were divid- ed on both votes, Brandegee favoring and Bulkeley opposing.

President Taft
 To Help Norwich
 Celebrate Fourth
(special from United Press.)

Washington, July 3.@President Taft will leave here this evening to take his family to Beverly, Mass, for the summer. and, after that duty is done, to assist New England and New York in celebrating a few hundred years Of their life and prosperity. The chief eel ebrations will take place at Norwich, Conn.,, and the larger cities bordering on Lake Champlain. Accompanied by Mrs. Taft, Charlie Taft, Miss Helen Taft, Mrs. Taft's maid. Captain Ar chibald Butt, chief military aide at the White House, Assistant Secretary Mischler and the usual secret service guards, the President will take the 5:35 p. m. Boston bound Federal ex- press on the Pennsylvania railroad. His private car, Mayhower, will be attach ed to the regular passenger train. He is due to reach Beverly at about o'clock Sunday morning. and will at once go to the Evans cottage on Sa- lem bay, which is now ready for its wants were sent to the cottage two or three days ago, and when MT. and Mrs. Taft and their children arrive, they will in all likelihood, find every their visit. The Presidents elder son will join the family at Beverly.
 The President will leave Beverly for Norwich late Sunday evening, and will spend most of the fifth celebrating the Fourth and the 250th anniversary of the towns foundation. On the even ing of the fifth he will again take the train, this time for Fort Ticonderoga, at the foot of Lake Champlain, where the first of the tri-centennial celebra- tion will be held. From Ticonderoga the President will proceed to Platts- burg, N. r., and will make his head quarters there and at Hotel Champlain during the sixth and seventh. Most of the eighth of July will be spent by the President at Burlington, Vt, and if his plans are carried out, he will be of the ninth.
 The celebrations by the New York and Vermont cities are to commemo- rate the anniversary of the discovery of Lake Champlain, by the man whose name it bears. President Taft will make speeches at his various stopping places, with the exception of Beverly, and as he is on the program for num- erous lunches, dinners and handshaking he is likely to have a busy week.
