BASKET BALL AT Y. M. c. A.
Local Team Wins from Columbia
Five Of North Adams

The Y M. C. A. basket ball team
showed the benefit Of its steady prac-
tice of late in the game Saturday eve
ming against the Columbia Five OF
North Adams when it defeated by a
score of II to s. The visitors were
strong, stocky men but the superior
passing of the locals was too much
for them.
In the preliminary game the Jun
iors showed their superiority over
the Neighborhood team of Benning-
ton Falls, winning by a score of 26
to 8. The summaries;

SNOW WENT FAST
BUT DID No
DAMAGE
Old Fashioned Winter Broken at
Last
HUNDRED DAYS SLEIGHING
Runners Have Been in Use Almost
Continuously Since Last Week
in November

After one of the longest periods OF
sleighing on record the people OF this
vicinity went back to wheels today.
The snow during the past sc hours
has been disappearing so rapidly that
where on Saturday evening there was
good sleighing and snow everywhere
there is now but a few patches OF ice
and that is going rapidly. The thaw
did not begin until midnight Satur-
day and at noon today the hillsides
were bare and the mud had begun to
show in some places on the streets.
While the snow melted rapidly the
river did not rise as high as had been
expected The Roaring Branch is
bank full but as yet no damage has
been done and unless the tempera-
ture rises rapidly or the rainfall in
creases there is not likely to be
food of any proportions.
There is still large amount OF
snow at the headwaters of the stream
but it has settled rapidly and unless
the shrinkage increases Ii will melt
away without flooding the valleys.
There is some dispute over the
number of days of sleighing. The
first snow came on Thanksgiving day
and cutters were seen on the street
that afternoon. One merchant says
that he has not used wheels but once
since that day and on that occasion
he took a load of goods to "The
Flats where the wind had taken the
snow off the highway. At that time
it was passable sleighing in the viii
lage. One teamster, who draws ma
terial for knitting mill, stated Sat
urday night that he had been on run
ners for 103 continuous days.

LOCATES BROTHER.
Des Moines Girl Has Vision In Which
She Sees Missing Boy Picking

Cherries.
Des Moines. June 24-Davy Stand
ley, a newsboy who was reported as
lost and for whom the police have
been searching the river, chucked
home and the newspaper business and
went to work on farm. He lived
with his mother at. 1913 Jackson ave-,
Davy was found yesterday at the
Pierce farm near Valley Junction pick
ing cherries. He was found through
telepathic sister, Marie.
Marie was crying yesterday morn
ing over the loss of her brother. His
mother declared she knew he must be
drowned in the river. The recent
drownings at Camp Douglas has made
all mothers of little boys nervous
when they are away. Suddenly Marie
sprang up and exclaimed: oh,
mamma, I had my eyes shut and l
thought saw Davy up in tree pick
ing cherries"
Together the mother and daughter
discussed the matter with the neigh
bors, trying to guess where there
were cherry trees where Davy could
possibly be- At least they CHANGED to
remember the Pierce farm where the
family occasionally visits. That
coupled with Davy's well known sweet
tooth for cherries, caused the mother
to telephone and she learned Davy
was there and at that moment having
the time Of his life in cherry tree.
