RANGERS CHAMPIONS
AT SOCCER FOOTBALL
Took Another Game Saturday, This Time
from the Bonaccords, Who Were
Somewhat Broken in Ranks.

What was in all probability the final
contest of the Vermont Football league
was staged at Berlin street Saturday
afternoon between the Barre Rangers
and the Bonaccords. The Rangers, 1914
champions, emerged from the clash 2 70 Q
winners. The game, played tefore but
mere handful Of people, was one OF
the worst exhibitions of soccer witnessed
in the league this season. With no IN.
centive to stir the players on to greater
deeds. the contest was characterized by
its listlessness. week ago tie Bon
accords gave great promise to enter the
game worthy foe for the champions.
but when the aggregation was usnered
onto the field four of its stellar perform
ers were missing. Organizer Cormsek
reviewed the ranks along the side lines
and found amateur players to re-enforee
the ranks. Considering their weakened
forces, the Bonaccords gave a fight
worthy of itself. The Rangers were Eeld
to one goal each period. The strength
of the Bonaccords was conferred about
their bacSfeld. In the forward line the
players lacked the qualifications of pen
nant winners.
The star OF the game was Dugnid, the
center forward Of the Rangers. He
scored both goals and played whirlwind
game. The play in the first period was
bout half consummated when Duguid
broke loose from a scramble and shot
the pigskin past Goaltender Ross for
the first count. During the latter part
OF the first period the Rangers were
within scoring distance several times.
but failed to negotiate. In the last ses-
sion the Rangers swept everything before
them. The attack in the first period
Slapped the strength of the Bonaceords
and they concentrated their strength in
the backfield to ward off the machine
play Of the Rangers BY these forna-
lions the Rangers scored but one goal.
Duguid accounted for this. The Rangers
lost a sure goal when Wilson missed a
kick from in front of the goal.

FAMINE IN CHINA.
Desperate Plight of Inhabitants in the
Flooded Regions.

Washington, d. C., Sept. l4.-Twelve
months famine, which only outside aid
can avert, faces the Kwangtung and
Kwangsi provinces of China, which were
devastated by food in July with loss
of 5000 lives and more than 100000
homes. Consul-General Cheshire report
ed at Washington Saturday from Canton
that mere than 100000 people suffered
losses, and many millions in distress
would need food until the next harvest.
Reports of American mission workers
forwarded in the nsuI-generals report
testified TO the extent of the havoc and
destruction.

THE ROOSEVELT CASE.
Answer to Libel Charge Called an Aggra-
walton by Barnes Lawyer.

Albany, n. ", Sept. l4.-Decision was
reserved Saturday by Supreme Court
Justice Chester on the motion of Colonel
Theodore Roosevelt's lawyers to have the
$50 900 suit for alleged libel brought
against him by Republican State Chair
man William Barnes, tried outside Al
bany county, Mr.. Barnes home Volu-
minous affidavits were submitted by
both sides, and the lawyers were given
until Saturday to file additional briefs.
incidentally Mr. Roosevelts answer to
the Barnes complaint was made a part
of the record of Saturdays proceed
ings.
In the answer the political activities
of Mr.. Barnes for the past 20 years
are commented upon. In substance it is
alleged:
THAT Mr.. Barnes has been for years
and still is the dominant power in the
Republican organization Of the state.
"That there has been cooperation be-
tween the Republican and Democratic
state organizations.
THAT Democratic and Republican or
CARNATIONS had worked together to de-
feat the primary and anti-raee track
gambling legislation of Gov. Hughes"
w NJ. WINS, appearing for Mr. Barnes,
eontended that the greater part of the
answer was not relevant TO the pending
motion, but was IAN aggavation of the
libel" He added that Mr.. Roosevelt,
as president, had appointed Mr.. Barnes
collector of the port of Albany. "lf,"
Mr.. WINS continued, president Roose-
Welt kept Mr.. Barnes in Office for several
years and the president knew all the
things about him then that this answer

MAINE ELECTION TO-DAY.
Fight for the Most Part Has Been Based
on National Issues.

Portland, Me-, Sept. 1.-THE cam
paign for the election of congressman
and state and county officers in Maine
to-day was concluded Saturday night.
As Maine is the first of the states to
hold an election this fall, Republican,
Democratic and Progressive party lead
ers have looked to it as affording pos
sible indication of the trend of political
sentiment in the country, Men of ma
tional prominence have been heard on
the stump in the larger cities, while
other speakers have presented the issues
OF the campaign in almost every village.
Former President Roosevelt went to
Maine in behalf of the Progressives early
in August and spoke in Lewiston and
Portland. The Republicans have been
assisted by Senator Borah OF Idaho, Sen

Paris Begins to Resume Its
Normal Aspect-Few
Stores Open
STREET CARS RE-
APPEAR IN STREETS
Tension Regarding Ameri-
cans Is Relaxed, Few
Foreigners Remaining

Paris, Sept 1.-THE city OF Paris
has completely dismissed the aPprehen'
sion of having to submit to state OF
siege. The residents are beginning to
90 about their business in the ordinary
way and the city wears its ordinary
aspect. Almost all the shops in the
principal streets and boulevards radiat-
ing from the Place de r0pera remain
closed, partly because of no customers
and partly because most OF their own
ers and employees are sous les dra-
peux."
Many shops were hastily boarded M
when the arrival OF the Germans was
hourly expected and still remain so, Jew
ellers and modistes in particular having
taken this precaution.
With very few exceptions the large
hotels have suspended business. Some
of those still open are entertaining only
three or four patrons. Street cars are
gradually reappearing, but there are no
motor buses, as these are all at the front
conveying rations to the troops.
Taxis are now available in fairly sulii-
cient numbers, but chautfeurs IN many
cases obviously are amateurs with ele-
mentary notions about the mechanism
of the machines and often the vaguest
ideas as to the locality of the less known
streets. The machines themselves jolt
and rattle abnormally in consequence,
doubtless, of the want of expert atten-
ton.
Food of all sorts especially vegetables,
is abundant, and in comparatively few
cases has it risen in price. The restau-
rant bills of fare, however, show a slight
advance.
