HOUSE FULL OF ICE.
Water from Open Faucet overf1owed
 Sink and Froze.

Harwinton, Jan. 13-Mrs Elizabeth Barber returned recently from a visit with friends over the holidays in Wa terbury and AnsDnia to find that wa- ter and frost had raised havoc in her sence.
 For fear the weather might turn cold and everything freeze up during the two weeks or more she would be away, she left the water running from the faucet. The water pipe did not freeze, but the sink drain did. and the result was something wonderful in ice formation. From the sink solid sheet of ice extended down to the floor of the kitchen which was covered from three to six inches deep with solid ice. Every door was burst open and the floor of the sitting room was sheet of ice.
 As the rooms were on the first floor, the damage was not great.

 Waterbury, Jan. 13.-Much to the disappointment of the local baseball "bugs" it seemed at 2:30 that the meeting of the directors of the State Baseball league, which was scheduled to come off at 2:15 D. m., would not be held today on account of no quor- um being present. At 2:30 only three directors, W. W. Hannah, of New Britain, H. R. Durand of Waterbury, and James O'Rourke of Bridgeport, were at the meeting room. It was ex- pected that some things would be said calculated to make the sparks fly. The question before the directors is whether the schedule committee, of which George M. Cameron is chairman had right to change the report of President Tracy, who assigned the holiday dates and to change the open ing date of the season as reported by Tracy.

REPRODUCING A BASEBALL
 GAME ON BOARD.

By reason of the electric score board an invention of the past couple of years, it is no longer necessary to at play in it's making. On the board is diamond and an outfield and on each side is the complete lineup of all players on both sides. Each player is shown as he goes to bat. The pitcher throws the ball and if it is not hit, the board designates strike or ball. If the batter connects with the ball, fair ball or foul is recorded, then the lights that represent the different diamond and field positions show which opposing player received the ball, what he did with it, whether the players made any moves on bases, and whether or not the batter was safe or out. Some interesting illus trations in the February Popular Me- chanics show just how the board is operated.
