 A horse owned by w. B. Robbius of Orcutts, became a runaway Saturday afternoon and although it did no damage it caused a lot Of excitement. MT. Robbins stepped into the Adams store and left the horse in the care of Louis Helm, who left the sleigh and went to the post office. The horse became frightened by boy who pas sed by on horseback, and gave a leap and started up Main street. Many tried vainly to stop it, but their cries only served to frighten it more. The horse slowed down on the hill near theMethodist church and was easily caught by Joseph Moran, who had no idea as to whom the horse belonged. Having the horse under control and for the time in his possession, how ever, he decided to give Miss Mary Maderno a lift" and drove her to her home on Center street. On his return he met MT. Robbins who felt deeply grateful for the capture and for the return of the horse

 The rivalry between Rockville and Stafford teams has always been keen and whenever these teams met a crowd was sure to be present. Friday nights affair when the Stafford Independents defeated the Edgertons of Rockville l was no exception. The hall was packed, seating upwards of hundred people. The first part of the game, | though exciting, was not just the kind that followers of the sport like. It
 was sadly marred by too much rough stuff by both teams Which side start ed it. no one knows, but the game was | not five minutes old when a forward
 and a guard had squared off, but
 nothing came of it for one of them
 changed his mind. Although there
 was much chip carrying and lot of dagger filled glances during the rest of the first half, that was the nearest
 the players came to a fistic battle.
 During the rest period the teams got | together and, after a little talking over of affairs, their opinions of each
 other were changed with the result ] that the second half contained some
 of the best basketball playing that
 has been or perhaps will be seen here this year. During this chapter both l teams proved that they could play
 basketball and that they were as equally matched as could be. The 1 Rockville boys must be given credit for putting up fine battle and any rough work started by them can easily
 be forgiven by those who know what it feels like to play in a strange and | supposedly hostile town. Levine and Kuslansky showed up best for the 1 Independents and were matched by l Mccarthy and O'Hara on the opposing side. The score:
