yesterday afternoon. The case against
H. H. Howe Of Brookliue, who was
charged with aiding prisoner to es-
cape from the county Jail, was nol
pressed by State 5 Attorney a. Y. D.
Piper. Mr.. Piper took similar action in
the case against Michael Dolan, who
was charged with three assaults upon
Mrs. Samuel Ear of this town. Through
his attorney, William r. Daley. Dolan
had appealed from a fine of - and costs
of $22.74.
In the ease of H. II. Howe it was
charged that he went to Ray Jefts, who
temporarily was in charge Of the county
Jail July 1, aud by representing that he
had been told by Jailer Davis that he
could have two men to help him in wat
ering the streets was given Stephen

/ Davis denied that he ever gave permis-
sion to Howe, and Sheriff c. E, Mann
had the charge brought. Howe was
/ taken before Justice William r. Daley
on July I, waived examination and was
/ bound over to the county court, w p.
/ Eames of Newfane becoming surety.

Results of Baseball Season
Announced at Meeting
Last Night
WILL TAKE $500
FROM SPECIAL FUND
Island Park Owners Share About
S120o-League Meeting in Bellows
New Grounds Suggested.

Subscribers, fans and all Brattleboro
persons interested in baseball will be
pleased to learn of the good showing
made the past season by the local base
ball association in spite of some unfor-'
tunate circumstances. A meeting of the
directors was held last evening, when
the financial outcome was discussed. The
exact figures for the past season are not
obtainable at tbs time, but the gen
eral result can be given. The details
Will be published in a later issue.
At the beginning of the season sub
scriptions were solicited to put the en-
suing season on a sound basis. These
subscriptions amounted to upwards of
$1,000. There was already a debt of
about $500 hanging over from the pre-
vious season. This debt has been re-
duced about 500, and to square up this
season 5 accounts it will be necessary
to take only about 5000 from the sub
scription fund.
The share which went to the Island
park proprietors for the use of the
grounds was approximately $1,000. Last
year the amount paid for the use of
the grounds was between S1700 and
and $500, and the year before the Is
land park share was practically the
same as last year.
\ meeting of the Twin State league
will be held in Bellows Falls tomorrow
Manager f. L. Breckenridge and NJ. j.
Moran expect to be present.
Just what will be done IN the base
ball line there another season is uneer-
tain. 1t is understood that the Island
park owners have opportunities in the
way of rentals which make them feel
justified in asking for more money fol
the use of the grounds for baseball. On
the other hand, the baseball manage
ment feel that they are paving for the
grounds about all the receipts will war
rant. There has been talk of establish
ing baseball grounds elsewhere IL
town, but the idea has not crystalizeC
into all effort at present.

the ministerialist conference at Brod-
lex, where it is understood that Pre-
mier Asquith and Chancellor of the
Exehequer David Lloyd-George have
been discussing the Ulster situation.
While no definite action in regard to
the home rule question is likely to be
taken until the full cabinet meets, the
gathering of several of the most i'm
portant cabinet ministers at Brodick
is regarded in political circles as of
the greatest significance, for Asquith
is shortly to 60 to Balmoral as minis
ter in attendance ON the king, and he
will undoubtedly discuss the Ulster sit
uation with him.

FIRST NATIONAL BANK
New FinaoctJ Institution for Green Forest. New Building to be Erected
 and Business Opened July

First National Bank of Green Forestl
 That sounds rather citifed, don't it?
 Well, Green Forest is rapidly becom- ing city, any way so such things are to be expected.
 The lot on the northwest corner of the square was purchased from Dr. Morrow Monday morning for the loca- tion of a new bank and it is eX- pected that building will be complet- ed and ready for occupancy by the first of July, if not sooner.
 The papers have been prepared pre- liminary to the organization and the capital stock of S25, ,000 has already 1 been subscribed. The movement was started by F. 0. Butt in Eureka l Springs, and 1t is understood that a number of the prominent tinanciers of the resort have become interested in the enterprise.
 Among the men locally who are talk ing stock in the institution are c. c. O'Neal, A. ]. Cox, w. A. Butt, L. E. Harbert, Jeff Harbert, T. c. Gatten, J. H. Ramsey, w. c. Russell, C. B. Grim and A. DeBar. We have heard a number of other names used in connection with the proposition, but are not authorized to speak for others than those mentioned.
 The plans of the building show that 1t is to be of distinctively modern de- sign. The walls on Nam street and the square are to be of pressed brick, plate glass on both front and side, the front door entering from the corner. The structure will be one story, oc- cupying space of 25X70 feet The floor will be cement, making the building practically fire proof.
 We have no information as yet as to who will occupy the various positions in connection with the management of the bank S affairs, but it is generally understood that c. c. O'Neal will be quite closely connected with it, with the position of cashier at his disposal, if he can be induced to accept.
 The First National Bank comes to Green Forest as a natural consequence in the growth and development of the town, and not to interfere in any way with the affairs of the Bank of Green Forest, which is known in financial circles over the country to be one of the best banks in this part of the state. More capital is needed here and there IS no QueSLIOu UIe eudG IL Will Day US way. A national bank controls many deposits that cannot be handled by a state bank and the fact that many wealthy men not living here will hold stock in the new bank will tend to in- crease the deposits and direct much business this way that would not other wise come.
 With two of the best banks in the state, and one of them national bank, Green Forest ought to command money sufficient not only to increase business and enlarge it's trade territory, but to continue the handsome progress in i'm provements that has characterized the town for the past several months.
