WIND STORM FATALITY
Sidney Grant of Bristol Killed in Fri
days Gale

Bristol, Nov. 20--In one of the
worst wind and transforms that has
swept this vicinity in many years
Sidney Grant, GO years old, was killed
last evening at his home on Bristol
Flats. Searching for him in the dark,
the wind having blown out the liant
ems, his wife and a neighbor whom
she had summoned stumbled upon his
body pinned to the ground by the
roof of a shed which the wind had
blown down.
Mr.. Grant went out as usual to care
for his stock and was passing the
shed when it collapsed in the heavy
gale. His failure to return alarmed
Mrs. Grant and she called a neighbor
on the telephone to come to her aid
in searching for her husband. Be
sides his wife, Mr. Grant leaves three
children.
People were afraid to stir out of
doors during the furious storm.
Heavy trees were torn up by the
roots; the covered wagon in which
Joseph Garrow carries children to
and from school at Rock Dale vas

Chapman is now playing short, but
his original position was third and he
could easily work back to the job. He
is a smart athlete and a vicious bat
ter. With Collins and Weaver he
would give Rowland an infeld, three
sides of which would outclass any
thing in baseball at the present time.
At present the deal seems to have
struck dead center, but it is by no
means off. Somers has found the
going bad in Cleveland this season.
His team has not been well support

a howl if Chapman was traded, their
walls would not be lusty enough to

Zimmerman know in no uncertain
terms that this years Cub ball team
is expected to play baseball and not
flash through the circuit on joy
ride. Zim refused to run out hit
yesterday and was called by the boss.
He beefed back at Roger, was fined
500 and then put out of the game.
INDIRECTLY this cost the ball game, as
McLarTy in the ninth got his brains
in jam and the Reds scored the win
ming run because of Polly's muddle-
headed work.
But the discipIining of Zimmerman
was worth more to the Cubs than one
ball game. 1t let any man on the team
who has tendency to loaf under
stand that he is expected to work.
Roger says he wants to win, and any
man on the team who doesn't have
the same feeling will be summarily
death with. All season Roger has
labored to put pepper and fight in the
club and has been winning games on
the strength of this spirit. If it dis
appears the going will be rocky for
the Cubs.
One thing is certain: Bresnahan
will have a club that tries if he has
to fire all the stars and finish in the
second division. There is no room for
shirker on any team controlled by
the Harp.
George label pitched a three-hit
game, but lost because his mates did
everything in the book they shouldn't
have done. Twice in one inning men
were caught mapping off base. These
slips were followed by a two-base hit,
which was wasted because of the
sleepy work that had gone before.
Each of the three Red runs were
counted on errors. label made one,
Schultz another, and McLarry had a
double play before him in the ninth
when his brain leaked and the Reds
put over the winner during the
