Fifth New Jersey which he had held in reserve to reinforce his right wing. General Pew brought up his own re- serve (the Second Massachusetts, to further strengthen his left and the outcome of this move was that the Blues gradually fell back on their en- tfenched position.
 The withdrawal was made in fine formation and the smen used good feadwork in securing proper cover and maintaining alignment for the retrograde movement. The artillery, which had been getting the range, was throwing shells into and behind the every one of the 5000 in the two forces was in action. General Pew's frontal attack was being pushed slowly but surely and soon the Fifth and Second Massachusetts were enfilading the Blue right General Hines had to be- gin a withdrawal, which was done in good shape. The Reds were then in a curved line with the Blue entrench- ments almost making the chord. Any further delay would have meant a flanking of the position and the dan- ger of a heavy Blue loss at the wings in withdrawing so General Hines sought position to be ready for a rear guard should it be necessary Wnlcn was not at the time the battle ended, officially, at 12:45.

MISS BOARDMAN
 WILL NOT ACT
RED CROSS CHAIRMAN DECLINES ; TO CONDUCT WOMAN's BUR-
 REAU FOR TAFT.
MISS ADDAMS CRITICISED
Would Not Throw Influence of Social
 Betterment Work Into <, ssssvaF,S. -sa Politics. .s s 2

5 Manchester Depot, Mass, Aug. 15- Miss Mabel T. Boardman, president of the National Red Cross, announced yesterday that she could not act as chairman of the advisory committee Selected by the Republican, National committee to conduct the woman s work for the reelection of President Taft.
 After praising President Taft, Miss BOardman said:
 This is my belief as a private citi- Een: but I believe also that no one whose name has been so associated with any great non-politicaI work or Organization has the right to permit fhs use of his or her name in public when such use cannot fail to carry with it more or less of the inf7uence of the ssofk of organizatien.
 q hold that for this reason Miss 5aTre Addams, though having the right 10 her personal convictions has not the right to zutiIize the influence of fhe egreat social betterment work, for which she has done so much. for the benefit of political parties or policies.
 She must by her action seem to the public to give with her name the with which she has been connected. This. believe, neither she nor any, one else has a moral right to do.
 .'Ft Is because of my association with the American Red Cross, our branch of a great international, abso- lutely' non-political organization, that I believe have no right to permit the use of my name publicly in connection with political parties''

 This feature of the day began at 2:30 o'clock Though the score was 19 to in favor of the East Siders who were lined up against the West Siders, Umpire Frank Nolan, the Victor Moore of Bridgeport who contributes much life to the pages of The Evening Stan dard, was prevailed upon by the los CTS to call the game a draw.

Letter to Ryan & Lutz Bridgeport. Conn

Dear strs: The wear of paint goes by gallons; the less-gallons paint wears longest. The reason. of course is its strength. It. takes less gallons because it is strong; it wears a long time, because it is strong. It is ali- paint and the strongest paint,
 There is a best paint among aIl- paint paints. No two are alike, of course; no two cover alike or wear alike. One is thin,> another is thick: :: one has, too much lead, another too much zinc, another is right The right is Devoe, so far as is yet known. Per haps somebody-else will find-out a better paint than Devoe: then Devoe will become a. more-gallons paint, a costlier paint, weaker paint, a less durable paint. a less-economical paint, a timid paint
 Bigger changes than that have come over the world. Devoe has the lead; why shouldn't we lose it to somebody-else
 Yours truly
