CHANGING NAMES OF TEAMS
Terms of Endearment Found in Every
District of United States-lnade-
quate List Is Given.

Persons who talk lightly of discard
ing all but place names for baseball
clubs are plainly unfamiliar with the
magnitude of the task. The National
and American leagues are but a small
part of the show. The country is di-
vided into innumerable districts and
subdistricts, and the fanciful terms of
endearment are multiplied accordingly.
A very inadequate list from the Pa
cific coast gives Seals, Oaks, Angels,
Tigers, Beavers, Wolves. Bruins.
Down in the sunny south they have
Gulls, Barons, Billikens, Crackers.
Steelmakers, Hornets, Capitals, Patri.
OTIS, Twins, Navigators and Bronchs.

gagement between clubs of colored

Occasionally the town name is used,
but it is evident that what was at first
fanciful has taken possession of the
common speech. II is not the reckless
reporters alone who call to their aid
the inhabitants of the air and sea and
the beasts of the field and the forest.

The seating capacity of the Presby-

workings of God in the world to-day.
The subject of the sermon was "Dan
Crawford of the African Tall Grass"
and the preacher drew many facts from
the experience of that remarkable
Scotchman to prove that even in the
haunts of widest savagery God had not
left Himself without witness. Next
Sunday evening the series will be con-

WAS WELL KNOWN IN BARRE.
Thomas F. DeLany, Brother of Mrs. H.
A. Duffy, Formerly of Barre.

The Catholic Sun of Syracuse, N. Y,
published on December IL the obituary
OF Thomas f. DeLany of that city, who
was brother of Mrs. III. A. Duffy, for
merly OF Barre and who was himself
well known among the granite dealers
of the Barre region. The obituary is as
follows:
"Mr. DeLany, who died Saturday
evening at his home, No. III Oswego
street, after an illness of three months,
was one of committee of twelve gen
tlemen who applied to Bishop Conroy of
Albany, in August, 1872, for consent
to organize st. Lucy's parish in this
city. Mr.. DeLany served on the build
ing committee of the new parish and
had ever since been most actively inter
ested in its welfare. He was a charter
member of Branch so, c. NJ. B. A., and
of Syracuse council, Knights of Column
bus, and had served as chairman of the
Fourth Degree assembly. He was a
member of the board of trustees of st.
Agnes cemetery for many years and
had been president of the general con-
ference of the st. Vincent de Paul So
ciety since its reorganization three
years ago. He was for a quarter of
century chairman of the board of fl
nance of the state council of the G. M.
B. A. He was superintendent of the
water department, 0ll903, under
Mayor Kline.
''Mr. DeLany was born in Boston in
1874. He came to this city at about 81
or 22 years of age. Shortly after his
arrival here, Mr.. DeLany engaged in
the monumental business and in later
years formed partnership with w. H.
Soule, with whom until his death he
was connected. For great many years,
they conducted their business in the 800
block of Warren street, but when that
section became densely built they re-
moved to the present location in South
Salina street His death will be freely
regretted not only among those who
knew him best but among those who
came at any time within the sphere of
his influence. His personal integrity
and his willingness to shoulder any bur
den in church and charitable work won
for him the respect and esteem of all.
"Mr. DeLany is survived by his wife;
two sons, George H. and Frederick 7.
DeLany; three daughters, Mrs. Frank
Neary and the Misses Sarah and Eliza
beth DeLany, and sister, Mrs. Fl. A.
Duffy"

Walls GIFT COMPLETED.
Dormitory for Girls at Lyndon Institute
Now Ready.

Lyndon Center, Dec. 22.--People OF
this village are proud of the latest addi-
ton to Lyndon institutes building, a
dormitory for girls, which has recently
been completed. 1t was built through
the generosity of Hon. Theodore n. Vail.
The dormitory is fully occupied, AZ pu.
pills and teachers living there, and last
week it was thrown open for the inspec-
ton of the public.
1t is thoroughly modern in construc-
ton and is equipped with system OF
call bells, fire alarms and fire escapes.
1t is SO by rs feet, three stories high,
with basement. 1t has an attractive
location on bluff overlooking a wide
meadow and commanding view up
and down the Passumpsic valley from
the rear of the building.
The front is toward the west and
looks directly across the campus to the
Institutes. 1t has wide pazzas on the
two stories and on the third story is a
large aIcove. There is also large
piazza in the rear.
On the first floor are a large recep-
ton room, dining room, kitchen, pantry
and locker room, matron's office and
three sleeping rooms. The two upper
floors are devoted to sleeping rooms.
One end of the basement is fitted up
as a gymnasium with locker rooms.
In contemplation of other improve
ments in connection with Lyndon insti-
tute, Mr.. Vail has purchased three
houses, which face the campus. Two
of these will be made into dormitories
for boys. The third has been sold and
will be moved to another site in town.
