Odd Bequests.

When men begin to think about
winding up their worldly affairs and
disposing of their earthly possessions,
then do they, as at no other time of
their mortal career, reveal the odd
workings Of their minds by the strange
requests they make, of which this eX-
traordinary instance is given:
II bequeath to George William Steel
all my fancy stockings, and to Mary
Hannah Wiggin my set Of false teeth
for waiting upon me-" Thus, on a
half-sheet of notepaper, William Green
wood an English retired cotton spin
ner, disposed of his worldly goods and
chattels."

ACADEMY LOSES TO LISBON
The Green and White Baseball Team
Is Defeated by Lisbon's Good
''- Playing

The Academy base ball team took
a bad beating at Lisbon yesterday af-
ternoon, being out batted, out fielded
and out generated.
The green and white team made
sixteen errors while Lisbon's play was
faultless. In one inning the Lisbon
team got eight runs on two hits and
three bases on balls. The poor show
ing of the Academy team was due
partly to the fact that three of the
regular players were lost to the team
Thursday because they were not
passing in the required number of
studies and consequently were detain-
ed from playing and the new infield
had not had any practice together.
st. Johnsbury scored in the first
inning when Lowell was hit by
Wright's bean ball and scored on
singles by Beck and Cutting. Lisbon
came back in her half and scored two,
but the Academy Immediately took
the lead in the second when another
bean ball hit Ling; and Lanpher's
long drive brought him in.
Then it was nip and tuck until the
fifth when the st. Johnsbury battery
and inner works went to pieces and
made seven errors and let in eight
runs.
Lisbon scored five in the seventh
when the Saints let loose another
shower of errors and clean hitting
drove in three more in the eighth.
Beck and Cutting were the hitting
heroes for st. Johnsbury and Leavitt,
Wright and Clough for Lisbon.
The umpiring was very good, in
fact, was the best the local team has
encountered on any foreign diamond.
