CASTLEMAN is BEST
AMATEUR HOCKEY PLAYER

New York, Jan. 1s.-- The anna
teur ice hockey season which is I'M
der way is the brightest in many
years. The annual fight for the tro-
ply promises to be one of the most
interesting ever held. The fact that
the N. Y. C. A. is favored in the
coming race does not mean that the
present indications point to a clean
sweep by the winged pedestrians
The New York athletic club will have
a hard time grabbing off the cup.
1t promises to be battle right up to
the finish.
Frederick Castleman, who was re-
Gently elected captain of the N, Y.
"A. G. team, says his team is faster
than ever. Last years winged foot
team was considered remarkably
fast one, and Castleman's remark
causes some surprise. Close obser-
walton however revealed the fact
that every man on the team Is GO
ing at fast clip: that they are brim
full of the fighting spirit necessary
to form winning team. Castleman
is considered by many experts to be
the greatest amateur hockey PLAYER
in the country.

having set many small fires on the
Homestake premises, the last OF
which was the cyanide mill No. 2
at Gayville, was taken in custody in
Chicago and the authorities are
awaiting word from the Homestako
for his disposition. The Gayville
episode resulted form the use of q
solution of PHOSPHORUS and O'Gra-
dy was Immediately Suspected Be-
fore he could be arrested, he depart
ed for Butte. Detective Summers
followed with extradition popers
and fugitive warrant for his man
and landed him.
While waiting for the Montana
governor to sign the extradition.
Summers and O'Grady walked about
the streets of Butte. Upon one OF
their walks Summers was set upon
by a party of men, supposed to be
Western Federation men, and tho
much wanted O'Grady escaped.
Summers was taken to the hospital
and has never been in good health
since.
Nothing had been heard of O'Gra-
dy, despite the efforts of the Pinker-
ton detectives in all parts of the
country, and it was by chance that
he was found in the workhouse at
the Illinois metropolis. Still there
may be mistake in the mans iden-
tity,

Benjamin Sawyer, a stone polisher in

Mr.. Sawyer has already applied for a
