Twin State Notes.

Newport papers say that Dixie is the
heaviest hitting pitcher in the league,
and they are right.
From the returns it would appear
that Bellows Falls did not need a col
orcd battery to beat northampton.
Donahue, who was reported to have
been one of the Bellows Falls bunch
who was released, caught yesterday 5
game.
Mr.. Wicl1ware. colored or white, had
way from 'dere. It was the better
way out of a bad mess.
Rrattleboro has won l3 of the Is
games played to date this month AMI
one Of the others was an thinning tie.
Pretty fair for 4 team that lost l6
straight in July.
Although he had to pitch the game
.Swormstedt has more satisfaction ont
Of his victory over the Champs than
Wicllware could possibly have. Also his
team has more satisfaction.
Northampton has let out Jim Da-
| ley, the young catcher from North
| Adams, and Harrington, the left handed
twirler from the same team, is to 90.
! He has not been a success in this
| league.
jim Taguer, formerly of the
| North Adams team and later with Ben
nington, has joined Newport and is
playing third in place of Anderson. He
is better hitter and as good fielder
MS Anderson.
! 1t is to be noted, exactly in the
same measure that the string of &c
straight defeats was noted, that Brat
ttleboro is winning some consecutive
games Just at this season of the year
And Brattleboro has no suspended
players on the team either.
President Keyes admits that there
are several things that Brattleborc
has done this season that are com
mendable > Among these might be-
included dropping protested players
promptly, failing to have the manage
punch an umpire he had hired to he'll
his team win. and not trying to vii
games on technicalities.
Brattleboro, Bellows Falls anc
Northampton have each played 4.
games, Greenfield and Newport hay,
each played II and Keene has only A.
on the list But Keene and Brattlebo
70 have tie game as yet unplaye'
which had it been counted as q game
would have given Brattleboro a tota
of 43 games and Keene one of Al.

Winning in First Inning-Visiting
Pitchers Hit Hard.
Especial to The Reformer.)

BELLOWS FALLS, August 29.-No
eolored battery opposed Jimmy"
Burns and his Champs here yesterday,
but the TurnstIes banged the delivery
of three Northampton twirlers for a to-
tai Of II hits and 10 runs while the best
the Meadow Larks could do was to
gather three off the twirling of Sworn
stedt. 1t was the last appearance of
the Champs here this season and a big
mid-week crowd was on hand. While
disappointed that the eolored battery
did not appear, the locals got their sat
isfaction in the score
After the first two innings SWORN
stedt had the Larks tanned, but the
TurnstiIes continued to biff the ball in
their early season style. Banta lasted
two thirds of an inning. Harrington
continued until two were down in the
third and then Burns put his left field
| er, keegen, to work. Keegan had good
speed and used Il splitter and only two
runs were scored off him. Francis had
a hard days work keeping in touch
| with keegan 5 delivery.
After Bellows Falls had the game well
III hand the players took hazardous
chances on the bases and got away with
many Of them. Robinson and Cum
mings, new men, made a hit with tho
fans and the entire team worked bet

al young things DO. Fortunately. this
girl got interested in the settlement
and. after much persuas sion, she was
allowed to take up more congenial work
and make a few friends among her own
sex.
Thousands of young people have no
places to go, no place where they can
be with other young people, except the
dance halls The girls have no place to
receive callers, and parents do not en-

Miss Lord, in trying to supply the
recreation and interest needed by the
young people, started different handi-
craft classes, notably lace making
classes that are now quite famous, but
she found that the public pageants pro-

When you realize how inadequately

ID ISHOP HICKEY'S arraignment OF
u modern women whom he calls
"tnseled with fashion, slaves to
custom and who do not blush when
modesty is outraged in print in song
and on the street." has raised a storm
of criticism from defenders Of the sex
who see the other side of the picture.
Women Of this kind are greatly in
the minority. They are in evidence
because they have nothing to do but
parade around and advertise their lack
of brains and heart But the great mass
of women uphold the high standard of
morals despite constant temptation. No
one hears Of them because they are too
busy to exploit themselves as the tin
seled' woman does"
Miss Katherine Lord thus took ex-
ception to the bishops words from the

and settlement worker.
