WILL SELL SEASON
TICKETS TO HELP
BALL TEAM
Directors Plan to Complete
Schedule of Games
GAMES POORLY ATTENDED
Scheme Expected to Revive Interest
as Well as Raise Necessary
Funds

To the Editor of the Banner: Do
the people of Bennington want high
class base ball? If so why do they
not turn out at the games and sup
port the team and encourage the
players? Owing to the weather con-
ditions the attendance at the games
this season has fallen far below that
of former years and below what the
management reasonably expected,
and if the team is to continue during
the remainder of the season public
spirit must be more in evidence and
the attendance at the games far bet
ter than heretofore this season. The
directors of the Association find that
in order TO keep the team for the re
mainder of the season they must
have assurance of better attendance
and to this end effort will be made
TO sell season tickets for the balance
of the season at $500 each. 1t has
been found necessary to sell at least
FIVE hundred tickets in order TO carry
out the league schedule and if this
number be sold by Saturday evening
Bennington, with its winning team,
will continue to play ball, otherwise
1t cannot hope to do so.
In the sale of these season tickets
the directors are not asking for con
tributions but for assurances of at
tendance. There are still between
eight and twelve league games to be
PLAYED at home so that those who
purchase tickets will have full value
for their money and the directors
will see their way clear to continue
the season and land the Berkshire
League pennanr. Bennington people
have ever been noted for their pub
lie spirit and civic pride and they
will not now fail to respond to the
reasonable request of their base ball
directors and will see to it that Ben
nington can and will support its ball
team.
The non attendance of the ladies of
Bennington at the bali games this
year has been frequently commented
on and the question asked, why do
they not attend. Why ladies'?
Doubtless because of the heat. Base
ball in Bennington is better this year
than ever before and ii is to be hop
ed that both ladies and gentlemen
will, for the balance of the season,
turn out in goodly numbers at the
games and show their appreciation OF
the best advertising medium The
Old Town" ever had, namely, Its
Baseball Team"

A serious affair. seemingly of SUI

speak tomorrow. During an enter
tainment a blazing chair, apparently
oil-soaked was thrown from box in

was thrown into panic. Attendants
eXtinguished the flames, and order
was restored.

mayor of Dublin proceeded to an ella

ovation.
Mr.. Asquith in a brief speech, said
that this was the first time the chief
minister of the crown had visited Ire

beyond his power adequately TO
thank the people for their magnif-
cent and memorable welcome. He
came on a mission of peace between

SCHWARTZ COMMITS SUICIDE
Murderer of Little Julia connors Fol-
lows His Fathers Advice.

New York, July 1S.-The body of
Nathan Swartz, whose father inform
ed the police that his son was the
slayer of fourteen-yearold Julia Con-
nors, was found this morning on the
fourth floor of a tenement house on
Chrystie street. Swartz committed
suicide by inhaling gas. The body
was identified by Detective Joseph
Brennan.
Swartz hired the room eight days
ago under the name of Max Hirsko-
WITT from Max Kaplan. Early today
Kaplan smelled gas. On investiga-
tigation he found Swartz in bed with
the end of a gas tube that ran from
the middle of the ceiling tied to his
mouth. Examination by hospital
physician showed the man was dead.
The house in which Swartz took
his life is next door to one in which
he lived for more than year and
left two years ago to go back to his
parents. At that time he posed as a
prize fighter and was well known in
the neighborhood, yet on his return
eight days ago was unrecognized.
That he followed with intense inter-
est the accounts in the newspapers
of his crime was made plain by the
piles of newspaper found in his
room. Before he lay down on his
bed with the end of the gas tube in
his mouth he spread these papers
around him so that he could see pic
lures of himself and of his victim on
all sides
A letter written on both sides of an
envelope, which had been torn open
was found on the floor This was in
part as follows:
New York. July 17.-This is only
to my dear mother, who | am always
homesick for and same to the rest
and pa. whose word | am taking by
doing this, which | figure the easiest
death OF my own estimation. ] want
to say that if | happen to be revived
in order to be executed why I'll take
that medicine just the same.
Il am sorry TO cause the trouble to
my neighbor, but all he'll have TO do
is to call a cop. Tell mother again
that | am really guilty and she'll not
cry her eyes out | know she thinks
I'm innocent. I'm sorry / done it,
but | got crazy as ] often do and
you can't blame me or any one else.

have been turned out of his room this
morning for failure to pay his rent

DelOT6 ulSul.
New York, July 19.-"The trail
leads where ! thought it did" re-
marked District Attorney Whitman
late yesterday. This was just after
he had heard the statement of Jack
Rose, the friend of Police Lieut.
Charles Becker and the man who
hired the gray automobile in which
the slayers of Herman Rosenthal, the
gambler, drove to the spot where
their victim met his fate early last
Tuesday morning. Little by little
the involved skein of motives and
personalities behind the killing is be
ing unraveled and last night il
seemed probable that other impor
tant arrests would follow speedily.
Roses surrender and his confes
sion that he was the man who hired
the murder car" although declaring
that he was not in 1t at the time of
the shooting, were the big events OF
the day in the pursuit of the band
who shot down the man who had &C
cused members of the police force
with being in partnership with gamb-
lers.
Assemblyman Aaron Levy, counsel
for Lewis Libby and William Shapiro.

intimated that his clients would be
glad to tell all they knew if the dis
trict attorney accepted them as wit
nesses. Neither Libby nor Shapiro
have given to the police the names of

and after the murder" said Mr.. Levy.
The changes in passengers, the con
yersation in the car, are known to at
least one of my clients. The other
has certain corroborative evidence.
Their evidence is necessary; they
were themselves innocent of any in
tent or willingness to commit a
crime. 1t is up to the district attor-
ney."
Sam Paul, who delivered the mes
sage of Deputy Commissioner Dough
erty Wednesday to bring Rose to
headquarters, went to Mr.. Daughter
tvs office late yesterday and was
closeted with the deputy commission
er and Inspector Hughes for a long
time. Another man, known as
Jack" Sullivan and four others,
soon joined Deputy Commissioner
Dougherty and Sam Paul They
were closeted together for couple
OF hours
Mr. Dougherty said after his talk
with the men that he believes the
men who committed the murder are
still in New York city. Were going
to make three or four good arrests
right away, | am pretty sure" Mr.
Dougherty said.
Former District Attorney Jerome
called at police headquarters yester-
day afternoon. He had a wide ex-
perience with gamblers during his
term of office, and il is believed his
advice will be valuable in running
down the criminals. Meanwhile the
entire police department has been
agitated by a report that there is to
a widespread "shakeup", and that
many police heads" are to fall as
a result of the scandal into which the
department has been plunged as a
result Of the Rosenthal affair.

HOW Old PEOPLE
May Prolong their Lives

At an advanced age waste IL more
rapid than repair. The organs act
more slowly and less effectually than
in youth. The circulation is poor, the
blood thin and watery, the appetite
poor and digestion weak.
We want to say to every aged per-
son in this vicinity that Vinol, u de-
licious cod liver and iron tonic with
out OLD will prolong life. It creates
an appetite, aids digestion and makes
good blood. In this natural manne
Vinol retards waste and replaces
weakness with strength, giving new
life to the worn system.
If people in this vicinity only real
lied how vinol invigorates old people
we would not be able to supply the
demand.
Try a bottle Of vinol with the un-
that your money will be
returned II it does not help you.

GIVE CAPITAL A CHANCE

1t is being freely predicted that
this is going to be a good year for the
mining industry of the west. We all
hope that this is going to be the case,
and, thus early in the season, the adj
vance in metal quotations strongly in
dictate that the prophecy of good times
coming is going to be fulfilled.
But, the mine owners of the west,
the prospectors and the claim holder,
must make up his mind to help if pros
perity is to be induced to settle in our
midst, for prosperity, as we view the
term, means money, capital, and this
must be met half way if we hope or
expect to interest the owners of this
money, or capital, in the many mining
propositions now held in allegiance be-
cause of lack of funds for their de-
velopment.
Most every prospector, every claim
holder and every mining man, is pos
sessed of mining ground which he
deems valuable. 1t may be that,
with proper development and equip
ment, it may produce millions, in time.
But it is not worth millions, now As
a matter of fact, it is practically
valueless, and, at the utmost, could not
show more than $4,000 or $4,000
blocked out and in sight. Perhaps cap
'ftsl would be willing to give twice
this much for the prospect, and it
would be money in the pocket of the
owner to take it. But no, his ideas
of values are fixed upon future posi-
b~ilities, and he wants $250,000 or
100000 for a prospect upon which he
has expended but a small amount in
development. And then he bewails the
hard times and takes a fall out of
capital when the would-be investor
passes up the proposition for another
which can be had for something like
its present actual value.
How much better it would be to
close a deal for $4,000 or $4,000, and
making a big piece of money, at that,
than to scare capital away by asking
exorbitant and unreasonable figures.
As it is, it is the buyer who is taking
the chance, and not you. Capital al
ways assumes this risk; but it does
not propose to deal in absurdities, and
is always anxious to play as safe as
possible.
If we want prosperous times through
out the mining districts of the west,
we must give capital a chance. We
