SOMEHOW OR OTHER
Selected

Selected
Life is burden to every ones shoulders;
None may escape from its troubles
and care;
Miss it in in youth and twill come when
were older,
And fit us as close as the garments we
wear.
Sorrow comes into our home unlimited,
Robbing our heart of its treasures OF
song;
lovers grow cold and our friendships are
sighted,
Yet somehow or other we worry along.
Midst the sweet blossoms that smile on
our faces;
From the rank weeds that would poison
and blight,
And cen in the midst of earth's beautiful
place.
There is always something that isn't
Just right,
Yet oft from the rock we may pluck gay
flower,
And drink from a spring in desolate
waste;
They come to the heart as a heavenly
dover,
And nought is so sweet to the eye or
the taste.
Everyday toll is an everyday blessing
Though poverty's cottage and crust we
may share;
Weak IS the back on which burdens are
pressing, -,
But stout is the heart which is
strengthened by PRAYER.
Somehow or other the pathway grows
brighter
Inst when we mourned there was none
to befriend;
Hone in the heart makes the burden
seem lighter,
And somehow or other we get TO the
end.

player can legally abrogate his contract
has led more than 40 members of Ma
tional and American league teams TO APP
ply for positions in the Federal league,
according to President Gilmore of the
FederaIs. Some time ago Gilmore gave
the clubs in his league permission TO
take any players they could get from
the older leagues, and the result is that
several men have accepted terms from
the new organization.
Among these are Hal Chase, whose de-
sertion OF the Chicago Americans for
the Buffalo Federals was practically as.
sured yesterday, and Pitcher Schultz,
who has joined the Buffalo team-hav-
ing given the New York Americans no
tice of his intention 10 days ago.
The wholesale desertion predicted by
Gilmore and his associates win be the
result, if it comes about, of Marsans
leaving the Cincinnati Nationals for the
st. Louis Federals.
The Federal league is ready to defend
in court any action taken as a result of
the new raid, it was said.

Wilson's Confab with Sena-

CLEARER FOR SPEED
President Expects to Com
plete Antitrust Leg
islation

Washington, June l7.-With virtually
all hope for an early adjournment aban-
doned, Democratic leaders in the Senate
prepared yesterday to push to compile
tion the administration program OF
antitrust legislation.
This course was planned as the result
of conference between President Will
son and leaders among the Senate Dem
ocrats at the White House last night, at
which the legislation the president
wants enacted before adjournment was
discussed.
1t was generally agreed at the con-
ference that Congress should be kept in
session until the antitrust program is
put through. The president in outlining
his position told the senators that while
he was anxious for an early adjourn
ment, he strongly felt that the anti
trust program should be enacted during
the present session. That rapid progress
was being made on the antitrust bills
now under consideration by Senate com
mittees was the report made to the pres
ident, and it was generally considered by
the conferees that there should be little
difficulty in getting these measures re-
ported to and passed by the Senate.
President Wilson's declaration that
despite what he characterized as de-
liberate campaign by certain interests
for postponement of the trust legisla-
ton program he would use every inau-
ence at his command to get the pending
bills through the Senate at this session,
continued yesterday to be the subject
of widespread comment in Congress. 1t
was believed that the presidents declar-
alton would hasten action on the anti.
trust measure.

yesterday by a score of to "a.
Although the American defenders
made desperate last ditch stand they
were not quite equal to winning. Their
thrilling rushes in the closing minutes
of the struggle aroused 10000 spectators
to frenzy.

of point, but despite their desperate
efforts they could not hold the advan-

period, but the defenders, IN their
anxiety to clinch the victory, trans
crossed rules by sharp crossing, and
were penalized for fouling.

Saturday 1t was the desperate style
of their play and lack of perfect team
work that finally wrought their down
fall. They lost in penalties pa points

The points of both sides were fast.
To Milburn fell the chief American
honors in scoring.
After the victory the successful En-

ponies and were carried about the field
by Englishmen carrying small union

TRIALS NEAR FOR
OVER-OCEAN FLYER
Wanamaker's Hydro-Aeroplane Is to Be
Ready This Week for
Tests

Hammondsport, N. Y, June IT,
Working day and night, the Curtiss
Aeroplane company is rapidly getting
the Rodman Wanamaker transocean fly
ing boat in shape for trials, which it is
expected will be held on Lake Keuka the
latter part of this week. The fixed sur
faces of the tail have been completed
and attached to the machine. Two of
the wings are finished and the other pair
are nearly ready.
Lieutenant Porte, who is to be chief
pilot, has practically decided on George
Hallett of San Diego, Cal, as his as
sistant. Hallett has been in the flying
game since the fever first struck Cali
fornia, early in 1909 1t was as a motor
expert he became identified with avia-
ton, and it is said Lieutenant Porte
selected him largely because of his
knowledge of motors. Hallett has been
flying for the last two years and is con.
sidered a reliable pilot by those familiar
with his work.

COMPENSATION

PRESENT LAW
NEEDS REVISION
A Fair, Common Basis for
Government En-
ployes

Washington. June 1.-THE federal
workmens compensation bill fathered in
the House by Representative McGilli'
cuddy of Maine and which has the sup
port of the American Association for
Labor Legislation, has met with such
opposition that its passage at this SEES
sion is highly improbable. The opposi-
ton comes from the southern Democracy
in the person OF Representative Sisson
of Mississippi who regards workmen's
compensation as Especial privilege"
rather than measure of efficiency and
economy. Monday. upon Sisson's OBJ
lection, this important bill which repre-
sents months of expert labor, was passed
over.
The McGillicuddy bill is much needed
revision of the compensation act which
now covers about one-quarter of the fed
eral employees. 1t covers all employees
and reimburses them for occupational
diseases contracted during service as
well as for accidents. "If this bill is
not passed so as to cover all the gov
eminent employees, it viii simply mean
that from Congress to Congress an ex-
tension will be made from time to time
until it is finally accomplished" said
Representative McGillicuddy.
This bill puts all government en-
ployes on fair and common basis
In Directing to the bill, Representative
Sisson sang song of praise for the
farmer, who, he stated, is the basis of
the foundation of all wealth.
"Does not the gentleman realize that
the farmers associations and organiza-
tons in. this country are all in favor of
this legislation and are continually pass
ing resolutions in regard to it 2" inquired
Representative Bryan of Washington.
81 do not know anything of the kind,
returned Sisson. Il do not believe this
bill ought to be considered under present
circumstances and on the unanimous con-
sent calendar. 1t is a very important
bill and for that reason | object"
Efforts, it is understood, will be made
to convince Sisson that the passage of
the bill will really mean an economy in
the government service and that it will
be no offense to the farmers.

wanted the months statement of the

A claim of s. for damage done by
three dogs to the vegetable garden Of
William Carson on Beckley street was
laid on the table under the conviction
that the dog damage money did not coy-
err such loss, the application being con-
fined to domestic animals.
The following amounts were ordered
paid in city warrants: Street depart
ment payroll $549.32, water department
payroll S60.ss, fire department payroll

ident Bancroft, the latter being absent

BARRE MAY REGRET IT
For Failure to Branch Out in the Build.
ing Trade.

One of the Barre newspapers mentions.
as an indication that the principal in
dustry of the town is in an excellent con-
dition, the fact that during a single day
20 fiat cars were brought into Barre over
a single railroad. Every one of these
cars will 90 out loaded with granite,
says the newspaper, much of which will
be finished work, thus giving to Barre
both the benefit from the stone itself
and the benefit from fashioning it into
the forms desired for the erection in
cemeteries throughout the continent
The growth of the granite industry at
this center during the past quarter of
century has been phenomenal. But, as
we have always pointed out, there is no
reason why the granite business there
should not attain to even greater pro-
portions. The stone is in unlimited sup
ply and it is admirably suited for build
ing use. 1t is strange that this branch
of the business should have been so neg
lected at Barre. 1t would in no way
interfere with the monumental trade,
but would merely supplement it. Much
of what is now waste product could also
be used for paving purposes. Any in
dustry that does not make the most of
its opportunities will be brought to re-
greet it in the end.-From Stone"
