VICTORIOUS AGAIN.
Resolute Miles Ahead of vanitie-De
fance Did Not Finish.

NEWPORT, r. l., July lin typi-
cal Sandy Hook cup racing conditions,
a long greasy roll and faint airs, the
Resolute so completely outsailed her
rivals yesterday that she led the Van
lite three miles and the Defiance four
and half miles at the finish of their
30mile contest
The Defiance was SO far behind that
she quit racing as the Nanitie crossed
the line, although the committee waited
a few minutes for her to reconsider.
The ResoIute s margin in elapsed time
over the Nanitie was Sim Els, which
her time allowance increased to 33m Is
correct time. The race was the second
of the trials and the first under the
direction of the New York Club.
The course gave the boats a 10-mils
beat to windward and two reaches of
the same distance. The breeze was
never stronger than four knots and the
Resolute after a bad start went to te
front in the first mile and steadily -
creased her lead to the finish.

Directors Negotiating With
O'Hara, Former Springfield
Third Baseman
DELANEY is IN
CHARGE AT PRESENT
Expected That Deal With New London
viii be Concluded Tonight-If So
He VIII Be Here Next Week =
Keene Here Tuesday.

Taking into consideration the gener-
al dissatisfaction among local fans
over the poor showing of the local
Twin State league team, the directors
Of the Brattieboro Baseball association
last night voted to drop L. L. Breck-
enrldge as manager. Catcher j. j.
Delaney has been put in charge Of the
team temporarily, and the directors
are now busily engaged in hunting for
playing manager.
The man to whom the Job is most
likely TO go Is Jack o 'Hara of Spring
field, Mass, formerly captain and
third baseman of the Springfield Po-
mics. O'Hara was here yesterday in
consultation with the local magnates
and will let them know definitely to-
night whether the terms submitted TO
him are satisfactory. He has been
recommended by Owner Carey of the
Springfield club as a player who is
well qualified fer the managerial berth,
and the newspapers of that city speak
well of his ability as a player and his
knowledge of baseball management
o 'Hara was dropped from the Spring
field team early this season on account
of an attack of rheumatism but he has
entirely recovered from this trouble
| and is now considering an offer to
| join Dan o 'Neill s Hartford team.
In case o 'Hara does not make terms
with the local club the local directors
will continue negotiations with sew
| eral other applicants for the place now
/ vacant. 1T is understood that there is
/ only a slight difference between what
! . Hara desires in the way of a salary
and what the directors feel they are
warranted in paying, and the proba-
bilities are that the deal with the
/ Springfield ex-Pony will go through.
In case it does o 'Hara will probably
/ report here for duty Monday and the
fans will have their first opportunity
| to see him in the game against Keene
| Tuesday.

Manager Burns Is about as shy of
really reliable pitchers as any manager
in the league
Bellows Falls has no home games
scheduled for the week from July l6
To and The Times feels that the
treasury will be sorely depleted by this
fact.
Greenfield has not a regular who is
hitting better than $50 except Sharpe,
who has played in but four games and
is hitting for 294. Goodridge is next
high man CT the regulars with .250.
Now that Breek has gone there can
be no doubt, of course, but that Brat
tleboro will win every game.
1t is slow season in Keene that
does not see some arrests made at the
ball games.
When Cassidy jumps here the next
time the fans will consider it a favor
if the catchers will allow him tC
stand in front of them instead of to
! the rear, as it will give him an op
portunity to enjoy the game.-BellowS

Notes of the Game.

Delaney seemed to find hits in his
new bat.
Howard was called in to pitch facing
the tough proposition of one run
scored, the bases full and only one
out.
1t is a pleasure to note that Dixie
covered first yesterday on play from
Leonard.
In the second inning as the battery
had finished warming up Hazlett put
on his mask and Leonard stepped to
the plate and slammed the first ball
Croker offered to right field and ran to
first. Umpire Fahey had not called
play, however, and was not in position
so Tommy had to come back and be
robbed of u hit.

SIMPLE LIFE KILLING
FARMERS; NEW YORK
PACE NOT SO DEADLY

Poughkeepsie, N. Y. Feb. 13.-The
general impression that farmers are
so healthy that you can't kill 'em with
guns was a sad mistake so far as New
York state is conc erned. A committee
Of the GRANGE reported to the governor
today that the death rate in rural New
York was more per 1000 than il
New York City.
The farmers have become so alarm
ed as a result of this announcement
that they have asked the board of
health to establish a division of rural
hygiene in hopes of overcoming the
edge that country undertakers have
en- their urban brothers in the me-
tropolis.
The GRANGE committee made its re-
port to Governor Glynn after receiv-
ing the grave figures (pun not in
tended) from DR.. H. NJ. Briggs, state
commissioner of health.
This means, said the alarmed COM
mittee, that rural New York need
lessly lcses 5000 lives every year"
