what hade happened. l was able 10 form
a fair idea OF her character She was,
in the first place. by no means the equal
of joys true self. Mentally she was
less developed; in some respects, as Joy

was not fond of animals: not. at least
of dogs. and the same strain showed it.

Leah as a colored woman. There WAS
something of that lack OF charity, also,
in the fun she had made of Uncle Jerdon,
something of which Joy herself would
be incapable. Edna was inclined 10 be
bromic; JOY was Individually sulphite

Leah. Not for myself, you know, Mr..

PLANT WILL BUY
NEW LONDON FRANCHISE.
Trolley League Prospects Brighten for
Next Year.

Prospects for next season of the Con-
necticut baseball association. known as
the Trolley league. have frightened up
considerably following a pleasant meet
ing that Morton r. Plant. one of the
best known public spirited citizens of
the state. had with Manager George J.
Fisher of the Middietown team. 1t is
understood that Mr.. Plant would pur-
chase the New London franchise for
next season, and Judging by the poor
success of the Whalers last season from
a financial viewpoint, Charley Hum
phrey will be more than glad to turn
his interest over to Mr.. Plant. 1t is
learned that several towns would like
to enter the league next season, and the
probabilities are that there will be
either a, six team or eight circuit Mr..
Plant is very much interested in the
proposition and New London is assured
of rafting good ball if he takes hold
of the game there. Mr.. Fisher and Mr.
Plant talked over plans for the future,
but nothing was given out for publ
cation.
