LOCAL HOCKEY OUTLOOK
SHOWS NO IMPROVEMENT
Loss of Several Players to Mohawk is
Felt Seriously by Calumet Man.
agement-Hopes Entertain
ed for Good Team Yet.

From Calumet standpoint the hoe
key situation shows no evidence of an
early Improvement. The local manage
ment has faithfully tried to fill with
seasoned players, the places of those
veterans who have been coaxed away.
but thus far without success. While
the other teams of the Copper Country
league are almost ready for the open
ing of the season. the gray and red"
seven is incomplete, and apparently
must depend to a large extent upon
raw material. Some of the new men
have shown unexpected form, and the
management is hopeful, but far from
as confident as would have been the
case, IL Mahan, Hogan, Uksilla, St.
George and Gray were included in the
squad which is working out at the
Palestra each evening.
These men have gone to the Mohawk
team which promises to be one of the
strongest in the league. Despite the
protests of the Calumet management,
and the urgent requests for the release
of enough men to fill up the Calumet
quota with veterans, Mohawk has re-
fused to listen to argument.
A little more than twerve months
ago, Mohawk was striving to place a
team on the ice which could cope with
its older rivals. From spirit OF
friendliness to the young aggregation
and for the good of the game the Red
Jacket team released two of its best
players To Mohawk, Chaput, admitted
by many critics to be the best rover
in the league, and st. George. a first
class wing man. and one of the main
stays of last years Mohawk team.
Now, however, the situation has chang
ed. Mohawk, with the signatures OF
Mahan, Hogan, Uksilla, Gray and VIII
st. George, appears to have the upper
hand.
In the face of this handicap, the Call
umet management, is making an effort
to provide good sport to the hockey
loving public of Calumet. Several new
faces will undoubtedly be seen in the
lineup but the strongest seven avail
able will be placed on the ice.
Despite the unfavorable prospect,
the hockey fans are awaiting the OPEN
ing of the season with interest, and 1t
is expected that liberal support viii
be accorded the local team.

Fernandina Team
Was Defeated

The excursion to Fernandina yester-
day was well patrQn'zed, quite a large
crowd going over to spend the day
in the little Florida city, see the ball
games. etc. The latter, of course, was
the principal attraction, and the game
proved to be an unusually exciting
one. The score was 8 to in favor
of the Brunswick second team, but
while the score does not indicate it,
the game was close and exciting until
the last inning, when the local team
went into the Fernandina club and
batted out four runs During one or
two innings of the game the score was
tied, but the Fernandina pitcher was
touched up rather lively in the last
round.
Aaother game was also played dur
ing the day between the st. Marks
club Of this city, and a boy team of
Fernandina. ard again the locals were
victorious by a score of Is to 2.

Things Legislature
VIII Likely Do

Atlanta, Ca, June 1S.-The state
railroad commission may be abolished
by the next legislature-that is to
say, this viii be done if the alleged
demands of the new administration
are carried out. 1t is understood that
the new administration plans look to
the creating of a board of control
pointed By the governor, and whose
terms of office shall continue until
the ensuing general election. 1t is
stated that the plan contemplates the
vesting of the board OF commissions
with authority over street railroads,
gas and electric companies ana other
public utility corporations whose
functions are confined solely or in
large part to municipalities. 1t is
said that the measure calling for the
abolition of the commission will be
introduced Ly an influential member
of the legislature, and will be yigor-
ously pressed not only by the author,
but by others who believe that the
membership OF the commission should
be reduced and its authority curtailed.
HOLDER TO BE SPEAKER.
Hon. John n Holder, of Jackson,
will have no opposition in his race
for speaker of the next house of rep
resentatives. It will be recalled that
Hon. j. Randolph Anderson, of Chat
ham, withdrew from the race in fa
VOr of Hon Roland Ellis reDresen-
tative-elect from Bibb, and now since
Mr. Ellis has withdrawn, the field is
left open to Mr.. Holder Mr.. Holder
has served his county in the house
for several terms. Mr. Ellis will take
prominent part in the coming ses-
sion of the legislature, although he
will not be speaker.

THIS GEORGIA TOWN
AGAINST FLYING MACHINES

Milltown, Ga, June 18-The town
council is considering the proposition
of drafting an ordinance preventing
airships from flying over the town
They realize that it will be only a
question of time before the airships

wagons, and they expect to draft their
ordinance in time. Their contention
is that they are afraid that the airship
will spring a leak, break its motor or
happen to other accidents that usually
affect airships while in the air and
drop down on some of our citizens
and maybe kill them or hurt them.
The automobile proposition is glad
ly welcomed, except the flaming red
kind without a horn or other instru-
ment that will make noise. Unless
they are equipped with noise ma

Santiago, Chilli, June 1S.-His mai

cairn island, and to carry to that
little country in the distant Pacific the
first mail it had had in nearly two
years. The few citizens of this Brit
ish dependency are accustomed to in

than usual this trip, and its arrival
will probably create an unprecedent-

How Island Was Settled.
More than a century ago the good
ship Bounty was in the waters Of the
southern Pacific, when the crew mu-
tinted and ten OF them led by Fletch-
er Christian, subsequently murdered
by natives, made for the island of
Pitcairn. This was in the year 1899.
With them the mutineers took six
native men and eleven women from
Tahiti as servants and wives. Once
on the solitary island they thought
they were safe from the consequences
of their action; that Ahey would never
be discovered
For twenty-four years that was so.
Then one day, when the mutiny lin
gered but family in the worlds mem
ory, and Christian and his fellows had
been reckoned as dead, a ship chanced
to put in at Pitcairn for shelter. On
landing the captain was astonished to
be addressed in English by men who
were obviously of European origin.
Then out came the whole story. Since
then the eXiles have had many visits
and received many kindnesses from
ships that passed" and through all
these years, although the original coll
onists are long since dead, their de-
scendants preserve the English Ian
guage, and as far as possible, in view
of their isolation from the centers
Of fashion, hold to European modes
of dress.
People Are contented
On their last trip the officers OF the
Flora found their hosts wondrous con-
tent with their lot. Not once did they
hear desire 10 quit the shores of
the island for the life of the great
world beyond. In their own simple
way the Pitcairners were prosperfng;
they had none of the warped and
frenzied ambitions of crowded cities
and no desire for wealth or position.
