but of the runners.
In the last two games Pfeiffer with
his elongated specimen of hard maple
got hits out of 8 times up.

More than the usual amount OF
interest was manifest at the shoot at
Hunters Rest last Sunday morning,
and strange ss it may seem the scores
on the regulation targets were the
poorest of the season, Hugo Gebser
walking away with the gold medal
with only l48 points.
For some time there has been .

Certain rules prevail in . shoot OF
this character. The one universally
followed Is that each participant Is
entitled to but one shot, unless he
should miss the target entirely, in
which case he is entitled to shoot
again. The rules prevailing at
snnd avs shoot provided for an entry
fee of so cents and two cash prizes OF
o.. 90 each we're hung up. Any ono
hitting one of two white spots in
dicated on the target was entitled to
$500. The following fines were pro-
vided for: For hitting the Cottonwood
River or one of the little pigs, %

LENTEN REGULATIONS.
Bishop Nlan's Circular-Those Vino
Are Exempt from the Law of Fast
ins-How lent Should Be Spent.

Episcopal Residence, Hartford, Conn,
February IA, 1912.
Rev. Dear Sir. The Lenten regula-
tieBs may be summarized as follows;
T. The sick ana all who are in del
.ssje health are no, bound TO either
fast or abstain
.. The aged and those under 81
years Of age are not bound to fast,
but must abstain on abstinence days.
s., The abstinence days for the la
boring class and all members Of the
household Of Iaborers are Fridays, Ash
Wednesday, and Wednesday and Sat-
urday Of Holy Week.
T. The abstinence days for all others
are the Wednesdays and Fridays. and
the second and last Saturday of Lent.
s. All who are engaged in an eX-
hausting occupation are not restricted
in the number Of meals and may eat
meat At any meal except on abstinence
DAYS.
s. Those who keep the fast are per-
mitIed to take only one full meal a
day. In the morning, however, they
may take a cup of tea coffee or choc-
olate with a piece of bread In the eve,
ming they may take a light collation..

THE II. C. MURRAY GO.

At this collation. it is lawful to use
fish, eggs, cheese, butter and milk, but
the quantity Of solid food should not
exceed ten ounces Meat is allowed
only at the principal meal This meal
may be taken in the evening and the
collation. at noon.
On Sundays there is no restriction
in the use Of meat, but both meat and
fish cannot be eaten together at the
same meal ON any day in Lent.
The faithful should remember that
they enjoy the above dispensations by
special indult of the holy see, as the
general law Of the church requires
fasting and abstinence on every day of
Lent. The mitigation of the laws Of
fasting and abstinence, however,
should make them redouhle their eff
forts to obtain the mercy Of God by
other means. Self examination, regret
for shortcomings, the correction of evil
habits and more time given to prayer
and pious readings should be the ex-
ercises of this spiritual breaking SPELL
They should also choose some form Of
penance which, while not endangering
bodily health, will make theim spirit
ually stronger.
One form eff penance already prac-
tised by great number is most COM
mendable, that is, the abstinence from
Intoxicating drink. In granting the dis
pensation to the laboring classes, the
holy father mentions as a substitute
for abstinence from meat the abstain
ing from intoxicating drink. No one is
ignorant that The appetite for stimu-
lants, if unrestrained, frequently ex-
ceeds the bounds of reason, and is
the mother of many vices in the indi-
viduaL the cause of much misery in
the family. and a fruitful source of
scandal. JOHN j. Milan.

LOOKING FOR SIGHT.
Rumor That American 6leachery Co.
Wants Location for $3.50, 900 Plant.

1t has been learned that the men
supposed to be connected with the
state chemists Office, who were maxi
ing tests of the water in the whitman !.
tic and Hop rivers last week were in
reality here for a very different pur-
pose.
The men were in this vicinity, as
they were in Stafford recently looking
over water courses to determine which
one was the best adapted for the needs
of big industry that is contemplate
ing locating plant somwhere in this
vicinity.
The American Bleachery company, 1t
is said, is to build a $4,000 plant and
all that it requires Of the town in
which it will locate is a spur track.
There is plenty of water here-that
is for the purpose of dyeing, and this
company does not intend TO utilize it
for power. There is more water here
than at Stafford where the streams
are smaller than here. If the anal
ysis of the water of the Willimantic
and Hop rivers does not test up prop
erly there is certainly no reason why
the water in the Natchaug river be-
low the pumping station could not be
utilized and a plant built in that vi
entity. A spur track could be run there
without q great expense and a new in
dustry would mean much to the up
building and booming of Willimantic.
