SAME OLD STORY
OUR BOYS WON
The Scalps of the Claremore Basket
Ball Teams Now bangles at Belt
of the Home Team

A very enthusiastic crowd witnesse one
of the fastest games of basket ball ever
played in Vinita, in which the Vinita
high school won a warmly contested vic
tory last night from the Claremore high
school team.
The game was very interesting from
the start full of star players, the first
basket being made by Belew who had for
his opponent the fastest and best player
on the Claremore team. Deck, Vinita' S
center, then losing his opponent easily
captured two more baskets for Vinita
Highs. Then Belew again under great diff
fiouIties put the ball through the basket,
and captured free throw also Smith
now got in one of his famous long shots
and sent the ball through the basket like
a flash. He also made many more trials
but played in hard luck, throwing wild
Franklin, the left guard, now captured a
basket, something seldom done by one
playing that position Elliott was in the
game all Of the time guarding his oppon-
ent until he could not make point for
Claremore. Thus at the close of the first
half the score was Vinita 13, ,Claremore s.
During the second half Of the game
Smith captured two more baskets for vi
nita, Belew one field throw with three free
throws. Now Elliott determined to keep
his record clear, and do the thing difficult
for guard caught field throw now Civ
ing Vinita "a points and since CIaremore
could get but one basket the last hall, they
were forced to be satisfied with 10 points.
The lineup for the teams was as fol-
lotve.

Banquet at the Cobb Hotel Last Night Was a
Fitting Close to NnitG'S Efforts to Convince
Legislative Committee That This is an Ap-
prOpriGte for the Location of the State
Hospital for the Insane

At night the visit wound up with a
splendin banquet at the Cobb hotel, at
which about seventy-five business men Of
Vinita sat down with the distinguished
guests, and the feast of reason and flow
of soul continued until after midnight.
W; P Thompson acted as POSTMASTER
and toasts were responded to by numer-
Gus gentlemen of the city, and by each
visitors.
If Vinita doesn't get the hospital for
the insane located here it won't be the
fault of the bunch who sat at the festal
board at the Cobb last night
The excellencies of Vinita as a site for
a state institution we're ably presented
and the guests of the day were evidently
well pleased

WITH THE MEN THAT ACHIEVE.
Trials and sufferings Of Uncrowned
Heroes of the Sea.

The career Of the ship wrecker con-
sists Of series of hardships and ad-
ventures and accidents and narrow es-
capes from the first day he enlists
with big wrecking company up to
the time he is brought ashore from
the grim ship he calls home" Grip
pied or fatally injured. OF all the pro-
fessions that demand heavy toll of hui
man life none, not even mining or
powder making, is as dangerous as the
one of these wreckers. Every year
these daring men who brave storm
and wave and tempest to save the
stranded liner" to raise the sunken
ocean greyhound" to rescue the ship
impaled upon rocks and, if nothing
else, to salye what valuable cargo may
be removed from helpless wrecks,
meet death by the score, says a writ
ef in Appleton's. Many of them, ex-
posed often for days and nights to the
icy blasts of winter seas, to driving
billiards and to drenching storms that
bite to the marrow, succumb to pneu-
monia. Others, at work on pitching,
tossing barges, have legs or arms shat
tered during the risky operations of
removing masts or of singing wreck
ing pumps or other castings that
weigh tons Others have hands or
feet so dreadfully frozen that these
must be amputated. And still others
are wiped out of existence after suf-
fering hours of untold agony and ex-
posure before the eyes of their help
less comrades.

rior of which has not been seen in the

to see them should not lose the oppor-
tunity of coming to the matinee today

was calling on old friends in the city
Friday, feeling the baseball pulse ana
talking over the prospects of the

league this year, but Mr. McDonough
has an idea that Kennehec Trolley
league might be a success as 1t mas
been in the past and thinks it is about
time to start a little conversation
along this line. His idea would be for
four team league, with Watervllle
included, local treasurers in each place.
an iron clad salary agreement and
everything on a strictly businesslike
basis Each city has grounds avail
able, the trolley management will do
its share, and there is no lack of good
players, college and professional, an
xious to come here. Possibly q deal
could be framed up with Squirrel is
land and Boothbay harbor to have
some of the games played there, one
or two q week, since they always have
a lot of baseball rivalry each summer.
Mr. McDonough made host of friends
here last summer and is known every
where as an honest and gentlemanly
manager His old friends were all
glad to see him yesterday and talk
over baseball, past and future. He
will be in the city again next week,
and probably a preliminary meeting of
those interested will be called.
