BILLY Finnegan of Stockbridge,
who has been member of the Ben
nington team during the past two
seasons, has been released by the
Springfield club of the Connecticut
league. Finnegan has been trying
out for the shortstop position but
found the pace set by older players
too fast for him. II is reported in
Springfield that Finnegan's arm,
which he injured last year while
playing in New Jersey, was put out
by a hard throw to first base during
practice. The news of Finnegan's
release has been expected here in
Bennington, as Manager Higgins re-
ceived a letter from the Stockbridge
boy the last of the week stating that
he would probably be open for an en-
gagement with the Huckleberry boys.

disease that science has been able to cure in
all its stages, and that is Catarrh. Halls
Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure now
known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh
being constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the

of the disease, and giving the patient
strength by building up the constitution

The Appalias Ocean Disaster

The awful calamity that oc-
cured recently in the loss of
Titantic which colided with a
huge iceberg. has overshad-
owed every other sucject in
Washington, and in fact all
civilized countries. Congress
has already started an investi-
cation as it appears that the
entire crew and all passengers
could haue been saved, had
there been an adequate supply
of life boats which would have
kept afloat until rescued. This
disaster has had the effect of
turning the attention of the
public to such Southern ports
as Norfolk, Va, Savannah,
Ca, New Orleans, La, and
other places, where icebergs
melt before they strike the
paths of the Ocean steamers.

The Republican Fight

The Democrats in Wash
inglon are watching with a
great deal.of interest the bit
ter fight between Roosevelt
and Taft for the republican
nomination. The fight has be
come so bitter that its effects
are bound to be felt when it
comes to the election in the
fall.
Roosevelt entered the fight
so late that President Taft had
secured nearly enough votes
to insure his nomination before
the Roosevelt fight gotta good
start. However, the overwhelm-
ing victory that he won in Hi
nois and Pennsylvania has had
the effect Of discouraging the
re-nomination of President
Taft. 1t is believed that if
Roosevelt should win the no.
mination, the Taft people
would knife him at the poles
thus insurip'g the overwhelm-
ing election of Democrat.

 President Fallieres witnessed the battle. The president gave an official luncheon after the maneuvers to Grand Duke Nicolas of Russia and the American and other military missions.
 The great feature of the mimic war was in the flying scouts, who, in a few hours, were able to accomplish work that the cavalry would take days in doing. The military aviators were able to unmask every position and to keep the respective commanders fully informed regarding the movements of the opposing forces. Bicycle scouts also proved useful.
