Company &c" Wins
I. Championship

There was q fine game of ball at
Leilehua on Saturday afternoon,
when Company G OF Fort Shafter
went to the home OF the Fifth Caval-
ny and handed them theirs to the
tune of 4 to 2.
This latest victory of the Shafter
boys gives them the proud title Of
champion Of all the company teams
of Hawaii. Saturdays game was
the deciding one In the series. and
the q boys are very elated over their
victory.
Mccall, than whom there IL not a
harder worker on the baseball dia-
mond, did excellent work for his
side. and On third is as good as any
local player.
Bolun and Ramsey did the pitch
ing for the winners, and Bateman
the catching. For the losers Miles
and Bell formed the battery, and
they did good work. too. When the
Military League starts up again the
public will be surprised to see how
much the Skaters have improved,
and they should do much better In
the next series than they did in the
first.

SEEK MORE DURABLE PAPER
Several Nations in Quest Of Medium
That viii Better Preserve Records

Washington, Aug. 26.-Alarmed re-
garding the permanency of their
state papers and otner valuable docu-
ments, the leading governments of
the world. headed by the United
States, are seeking paper of as near
ly an indestructibe character as can
be made. This announcement is
made in a statement issued by the de-
partment of agriculture which was
prepared by f. p. Veitch, chief of the
leather and paper laboratory. Bur
eau of Chemistry on THE Need for
Good Paper"
Already several Governments have
introduced stringent requirements
WITH which record paper must COM
ply. The need in this country for
more durable paper is a real one, Mr.
Veitch declares. important state pap
ers, correspondence, deeds, bonds
certificates, ledgers. court records
and certain printed documents are so
valuable, it is stated, that it is alb
solutely necessary that the paper up
on which they are printed should be
as nearly indestructible as possible.
1t is declared that the quality of
the paper is not the only problem
that should give concern. So rapidly
are records of all kinds increasing
that their proper storage and safe
keeping are a serious problem. Pap
er SHOULD be not only durable, but
light and thin, so that the burden of
its proper handling and storage may
be reduced as far as possible.

DEAD FISH IN MOHAWK
Believed to Have Been Killed by Pois-
onous Refuse From Mills

Troy, Aug. 25.-The attention of
the state forest, fish and game de-
partment has been called to the large
number of dead fish that have been
recently found floating down the Mo
hawk river near Whitesboro. George
A. Warner, who discovered them says
that there are thousands of them. A
peculiar feature is that all the dead
tsfih are suckers. 1t is believed that
factories have dumped poisonous ref
use in the river and that the reason
only suckers are poisoned is because
of their habit at this time of the year
of staying near the bottom of the
stream, where the refuse settles.
Commissioner Whipple said yester-
day that no harm would be done If
only suckers were killed, as they feed
on the spawn of other more valuable
fish. A game protector has been sent
to investigate the case
Another report to the department is
that large amount of fish has been
found floating in the Wynantskill at
Abba. The cause is said to be the
dumping into the creek Saturday of a
large quantity of refuse by knitting
mill.
Philip A. Fennelly Of Jackson St,
game warden for Rensselaer, county,
has just completed a preliminary in
vestigation OF conditions taat exist
not only in the pond at Abba but in
two other local ponds and a report of
his finding, with evidence, has been
sent to the state game protectors of
fee in the capitol building at Albany.
On Sunday morning Warden Fen
nelly's attention was called to the fact
that in the ponds dead fish were
found floating on top of the water and
that circumstances attending their
finding were suspicious Mr.. Fennel-
ly went TO Abba pond. There he
found fish of every description, big
and little, floating on the surface. Mr.
Fennelly visited Smart's first and sec
ond ponds into which bodies of water
the Abba pond empties. and there he
found conditions similar to the first
pond inspected.
According to a statement every fish
in the three bodies OF water has per
ished and the water itself is still pois-
onous
II is possible that the three ponds
will nave to be emptied and the dead
fish carted away. Yesterday the sun
had its effect on the floating fish and
the odOr arising was very disagree
able, and entirely unhealthy to those
who We're forced to be in the vicinity

Betheny Aviation Field, Rheims.
Aug. 26.-Another sensational exploit
was added to the achievements of avi-
alton week yesterday when Paulham
the .plucky French aviator, broke the
worlds record in a wonderful flight of
about eighty-three miles accomplish
ed in two hours SO minutes and "a

the unofficial record was hours, ~
minutes, 5 seconds, made by Roger
Sommer at Mourmelon-le-Grand on
August 7. Wright's record for dis
lance was 70 miles.
Paulham made thirteen circuits of
the course here, ten kilometers or six
and one-fifth miles around, and the
wind squall passed as he was coming
down the nome stretch for the last
time. simultaneously the dirigible,
Col Renard, appeared to the west
ward, blowing its way majestically
through the smoke of the City of
Rheims.
When Paulham finally came down
it was because the fifty-six liters of
fuel which he carried in his tank was
exhausted. He said Immediately af-
ter ne landed that both the machine
and the revolving self-cooling Gnome
motor had stood up perfectly, and that
he could have continued indefinitely Il
the tank had been replenished.
The only accident of the day was
the sapsizing of Rongier just before
dark. Fortunately. Rongier was only
slightly injured. although his machine
was wrecked.

last with other complications. His
health had not been good for several
months, but he had attended to his
duties until well into the summer.
Mr.. Wilson was born in Westmin-
ster, just outside the village of Bel
lows Falls, April 5, 1850 and grew up
in that town, but came to Arlington
to work in a shoe peg factory when
a young man and that town has since
been his home. His first office was
constable of the town of Arlington in
which place he made such good rec
ord that he was appointed deputy
Sheriff and was elected high sheriff
Of Bennington county in 1892 and
held that Office continuously until the
early part of 1907 when he resigned
after being appointed state cattle
commissioner by Governor Proctor.
He was re-appointed by Governor
Prouty in 1908.
AS sheriff of Bennington county
Mr.. Wilson had remarkable record.
Not only was he energetic, fearless
and incorruptible, but he was prompt,
active and keen witted in apprehend-
ing wrong doors. He never hestitat-
ed to go after a criminal, no matter
how desperate. He was shot at on
at least two occasions, but did not
turn back.
AS state cattle commissioner Mr..
Wilson has also made a notable
name for himself 1t is a trying place
and calls for great tact and firmness.
He has looked after the interests of
the state and sought to enforce the
law without fear or favor.
Mr.. Wilson, some years after
settling in Arlington established a
carriage building and repair shop
which he conducted until he was
elected sheriff in 1892. He was a
member of Red Mountain lodge, F.
and A. NJ. and of Bennington lodge
of Elks. He was also a member of
the Arlington literary club.
For many years he has been promi-
nent in political affairs Always a
Republican he was one of tne hard
est workers in behalf of Republican
principles, but at the same time was
so fair and reasonable that he was
respected and admired by his politi-
cal opponents.
He was twice married and is sur
vived by his second wife and two
sons and one daughter In his fami-
ly and private life Mr.. Wilson was
esteemed by all He was honest
and upright in all his dealings, of
warm-hearted, friendly disposition,
generous and public spirited.
The funeral will be held Saturday
afternoon from nis late home.

SUGGESTS A LEAGUE
Wants Pittsteld and North Adams
Included in the List.


While in Pittsfeld Monday Mana
ger Hanna of the New Britain base
ball club spoke of matters pertaining
to league baseball and he offered sew
eral suggestions that seem to be
quite good Baseball in the Connect
cut league, according to Manager
Hanna is not now big paying pro-
position. The New Britain team will
probably come out a trifle ahead on
finances at the end of the season. A
few of the leaders will drop a good
sized roll. The attendance at the
games in some of the cities on the
circuit is not wat it should be.
Manager Hanna thinks that it
would not be a bad idea to have the
teams in the Connecticut league that
represent Massachusetts cities with
draw from the circuit. A new league
could then be formed and have
Springfield. Tlolyoke. Northampton,
Pittsfield, North Adams and Hoosick
Falls as a circuit Baseball in all
these cities. he says, is now on the
gain. A franchise in this proposed
league would not cost anything as all
the cities now have teams and en-
closed ball parks. A league such as
is proposed by Manager Hanna, he
says, will be a paying proposition as
there is a good circuit, no long jumps
and an interest in all the teams In
the circuit would assure good crowds.
The Connecticut league would be
continued. New London, Norwich and
Merden could be taken on in place of
the Massachusetts cities that would
go into the new circuit The Con
necticut teams now in the league are
Hartford, Waterbury, New Britain,
New Haven and Bridgeport. At one
end of the season in the two leagues
a post season series between the
winners of each league could be ar
ranged and would create much inter
est, Mr.. Hanna believes.

SUES YOUNG WOMAN
Bratteboro Man Places Damages at
$4,000

Brattleboro, Aug. 26.-Seeking balm
for his wounded feelings, Harry s.
Smith has brought suit against Elmo
ra l. Lindsay for $4,000 for alleged
breach Of promise to marry. The pa
pers were served this morning on
Miss Lindsay by Deputy Sheriff A. w.
j. wilkins. Roth parties live in Brat
tleboro.
Smith has been living at the Lind
say farm for about four years, the
place being about Two miles outside
of Brattleboro on ,Ae road to tne VIII
der farm. During that time he has
been paying a great deal of attention
to Miss Lindsay and on June 26, this
wear. she agreed to marry him and
set the date for the wedding for the
week beginning July a.
At last July came and she retus-
ed to marry him. giving him no rea-
son for her refusal. Several times
since July 4, Smith has endeayored to
nave her change her mind and marry
him but she has refused to listen to
him or to have anything to do with
him. Smith claims that Herbert
Longcil, also of Brattleboro, has been
having her a good deal of attention
and he believes the man is responsi-
BILE for her change of attitude toward
hin. The suit is returnable for the

SAVINGS
TO BE URGED
BY TAFT
President Will So Recommend
in Message
WOULD NOT HARM BANKS
Provide Funds fer Government and
Keep at Home Money Now ssnt
Abroad

Beverly, Mass, Aug 26.-President
Taft indicated in talks with callers
yesterday that in his message to Con-
gress next December he will strongly
urge the early establishment of q
postal savings bank system.
Mr.. Taft believes that several hun
dreds of millions would be placed at
the disposal of the government
through postal savings banks. The
money which the postal banks would
draw, the President believes, is that
which is sent abroad each year by
foreigners who insist that the Govern
ment's guarantee shall be back of
any bank in which they place their
savings, and that which is now secret
ed in stockings and mattresses.
BY placing the interest to be allow
ed at less tnan per cent. Mr.. Taft
is convinced that no harm would be
done to the ordinary banks of COM
merce, for discriminating persons
who now place their moneys In these
banks would not withdraw money
drawing high rate and place 1t I'M
der Government care at half the In
terest.
Secretary of the Navy Meyer is
strongly in favor of postal banks. He
has given much thought to tae sub
ject and is convinced OF its impor-
lance. Idle funds would be placed at
the disposal of the Government at an
exceedingly low rate of interest. The
Governments guarantee, 1t Is be-
lieved, would dam the steady flow OF
gold across the Atlantic.
President Taft expressed himself
again as he did so often during the
campaign of a year ago. as unalterab-
ly opposed to guarantee OF bank de-
posits. He said he did not believe In
making one set of bankers stand re-
sponsible for another set and he did
not think that the National Govern
ment or the States should undertake
to extend guarantee to institutions
which were not under direct Govern
ment control.

Several baseball fans went to North
Adams this afternoon to witness the
game with Pittsfeld. In yesterdays
game played at Pittsfeld the home
team won to 8. Chris" Mahoney
pitched for Pittsfield.
Roarin' Bill Clark, manager of the
Albany team, is after Maurice Ken
nedy the North Adams captain. Ken

and he is batting at a 327 clip. AL
bany might do worse than pick up the

Foot" Ruell who covered short
stop for North Adams last season,
met with an unfortunate accident in
the Waterbury-Holyoke game Tues
day at Holyoke when he broke his
ankle trying to steal home on
double steal but was caught at the
plate.
There will be no game in Benning-
ton Saturday or Sunday. Saturday
tne home team will play at North
Adams and on Tuesday at Pittsfield.
Manager Higgins has been unable to
secure a good team for Sunday and
therefore thought it best not to play
at all that afternoon.
George E. Walsh of Rutland short
stop and formerly captain of the old
Rutland baseball team, was given a
trial in the New Bedford-Lynn game
played on August % and made such
an excellent showing that the Lynn
team have asked him to sign with
them for next season. Walsh was
put on as a pinch" hitter in the
ninth inning wien only two hits had
been had from the New Bedford pit
cher and he made a two-bagger.
