Lewiston Wins the
Rubber frOmHazZard

The Lewiston Independents won the
rubber of the series with the Hazard
Club Saturday evening at Hazard hall
by score of % to p in a game that kept
the crowd thrilled until the final whistle.
So close was the guarding of both teams
that neither was able to score in the first
half until five minutes had elapsed. The
visitors took the lead and were never
headed off during the game. The first
half ended with the score: Lewiston 20,
Hazard 10. On one occasion Lar
son threw the ball, which bounc-
ed to the top of the carom
board and finally rested on the back part
of the iron hoop. Hazards somewhat
shifted lineup cost them dearly. Perry
who played center. had an opponent who
outweighed him by So pounds, and Pitch
er, who started at forward was shifted
to backfield too late, as O'Connell had six
goals obtained from Larson, which help
ed materially in winning the game. Pitch
er played good game, holding the Slip
perry O'Connell to one basket while play
ing bavk. Jones covered Breen SO close
ly that the visiting forward never had a
chance to shoot without Jones upon his
back. Hazard showed a disposition to
try too many long shots when there were
chances to feed their teammates under
the basket The real star of the game
was "Okie' OConnell, and that he was
slippery Vic Larson can testify. The sum-

ROBBERS BREAK into CHI
CAGO STORE--GET $4,000

Chicago, March 14.-Five armed rob-
bers broke into the mail order branch
of the Hartman Furnishing Co. at
1913 Wentworth avenue Saturday, blew
open the office safe. threw aside val
uable securities, discarded $4,000 in
money orders and escaped with $751;
600 cash, the weekly payroll of the
company.
Leaving a guard outside four rob-
bers attacked, bound and gagged
watchman in the basement. A second
and third employe of the furniture
company We're surprised and bound
and gagged. The robbers then blew off
the safe door with nitroglycerin.
Failure of the watchmen to make
their hourly report on the burglar
alarm service wires led a telegraph to
send one of its special watchmen to
the building.
The outside guard covered him with
a revolver and escorted him within the
building, where he was bound and
gagged and lefet with the three Hart
man watchmen.

FALL RIVER WOMAN
BRUTALLY MURDERED
Assailant Nearly Sewers the
Head from Body--Attacks
Victim with Knife

Fall River. Mass, March 15.-Mrs
Tanka Belatski, widow of 27 years of
age, was murdered in the yard at the
rear of house where she boarded on
Spring street, today The murderer, who
escaped, is believed by the police to be a
man whose attentions the woman refused
The assailant seized Mrs. Belatski as
she was leaving the house and with a
knife nearly severed her head from the
body.
A severe handicap to the police in the
search for him is the failure of anyone
to give the police a good description of
the murderer.
Mrs. Belatski had been boarding at 1872
Spring street but a very short time, hav-
ing come there from the south end of
the city. 1t Is understood that Ruthke-
vich threatened to kill her few days
ago following his release from the New
Bedford institution.
Ruthkevich wanted Mrs. Belatski to go
away and live with him but she refused
to have anything to do with him.
Ruthkevieh is said to have a wife and
two children in Poland while Mrs. Be-
latski was a widow.
The police describe Ruthkevich as being
feet inches in height and Weighing
about $50 pounds, dark complexion and
black moustache.
Ruthkevich had said he came from
Pittsburg, Pa. and brought Mrs. Belatski
with him. This the woman denied. Only
Friday Mrs Belatski gave Ruthkevich 81
and told him to leave her.

MRS. PANKHURST
RELEASED FROM JAIL
Weak f no m Hunger and
Thirst--C Charge Brutal
Treatment

London, March 15-Mrs. Emmeline
Pankhurst was again released from Hol-
loway Jail Saturday. She had started a
hunger and thirst strike" Immediately
after her arrest on Sunday last at Glas-
gov and is reported to be very weak and
exhausted.
A demonstration had been arranged by
the militant suffragettes outside of the
prison, but this failed owing to the secre-
cy with which Mrs. Pankhurst was re-
moved from the building. She was driven
in taxicab to nursing home.
Suffragists charge the police with bru-
tai treatment of the militant leader at the
time of her arrest in Scotland. Mrs.
Pankhurst fell during the scrimmage and
the militant newspaper says the police
threw her bodily into a cab, where they
allowed her to lie on the floor while they
sat on the seats insulting her, An inves-
tigation of the incident is demanded.

The Community concert which was
held Sunday afternoon at Library hall
WIS exceedingly well attended ali
seats being filed and many standing
in the aisles and the rear of the hall.
All the selections were well received.
Keith Ryan was the soloist. He is the
possessor of a true tenor voice of rare
richness. His rendering of Fear Ye
Not O Israeli by Dudley Buck was
especially fine and he was doubly en-
cored. Mr.. Ryan was for some time
tenor in the choir of a large church in
St Louis. His voice is well cultivated
and shows what faithful work can
accomplish. He has not appeared upon
the concert platform for some years
but residents of Gardiner hope to hear
him often.
Miss Alice NJ. Richard was accompanist.

Washington, March 15.-A report on
the alleged detention, under restraint,
of James Miller of Hudson, Mass, in
Korcha, Albania, was received .Satur-
day by the department of state from
the American consul at Solonica,
Greece, and was transmitted to Rep
resentative Rogers.
Mr.. Rogers was not satisfied with
the report and urged the department
to go further into the inquiry, which
the acting solicitor pomised to do. Ac-
cording to the report, the American
consul at Salonica 'some time ago had
protested against the imprisonment of
this man. and the consul suggests
that he now may be in the Turkish
army" The state department admit
ted that this reply was very vague,
and cabled for further advices.
