TWO VIOLENT DEATHS
 IN SOUTH BERKSHIRE
Fireman Killed on Train Farmer is Gored by
 a Bull

Two violent death occurred in southern Berkshire county last week, just over the Massachusetts border. The first was that of fireman on the Berkshire division and the latter of farmer who was gored to death by bull.
 G. Elmer Duplisea of Danbury, a fireman employed by the New Ha- ven road, was instantly killed Friday night between Stockbridge and Great Harrington. He was heading from Pittsfeld to New York on ex- tra passenger train SIS, in charge of Conductor J. E. Mullen and Engin- eer Crocker of Danbury. It is sup posed that his head came in contact with the overhead bridge near Stock bridge or at Glendale.
 At VanDeusenville he was missed and search disclosed his body in the coal of the tender. He was hurried to Great Harrington in the hope life was not extinct. Dr. Cavanaugh was called and pronounced Duplisea dead, the frontal bone of his skull having been crushed.
 Medical Examiner Beebe viewed the body and it was then taken to his home in Danbury. He leaves a widow and five children.
 Gored to Death by Ugly Bull
 Otis Hatch, a farmer on the un- dermountain Sheffield road, was gored to death by an ugly bull late Sunday afternoon. The bull was owned by George Mosely, who rent ed an adjoining pasture. It is sup posed that MT. Hatch went for his COWS and did not discover that the bull was in his pasture until attack ed. A man by the name of Robin son, who was driving along the highway, heard MT. Hatch call for help, and he secured some neighbors, who by using pitchforks drove the bull away. MT. Hatch was given a little water to drink and died within a very few minutes. The body was horribly gored and trampled. He was about 50 and is survived by his widow, who was away on a visit.

BIG CELEBRATION
 ALL DAY JULY FIFTH
Something of Interest From Early Morning Until
 Late at Night

Following it's plan of last year of having a real celebration on lnde- pendence Day for this and nearby villages, the Community Association has arranged to have a still bigger celebration next Monday, July 9th. Everyone who attended the exer- cises last year will appreciate what this means.
 The events of the day will open at 10 a. m. standard time with street parade which will include numerous floats, bands, etc. Then the athletic events will take place at zoo o'clock. As will be seen from the following program, this should prove interesting as many nearby towns have agreed to participate:
 SENIOR EVENTS
 Intertown Relay-to be run by teams of four men representing the various towns. Each man runs 50 wards. The winning team will be awarded silver loving cup. Bicycle Race.
 100 yd. dash.
 Running High Jump.
 Running Broad Jump.
 Shot Put.
 Throwing the Baseball for Dis tance.
 Running the Base against Time.
 BOYS EVENTS
 Obstacle Race.

 Sack Race, open to boys under 13 years.

 The prizes are now on exhibition at Collins Jewelry Store.
 Probably the biggest feature of the day to many will be the ball game between Canaan and East Ca naan, the rivals who have fought for supremacy in baseball for many years. Up to the present time the honors go to East Canaan for having the better team, but Canaan has made up it's mind to give them the hardest run for their money they ever had this year.
 There will be side shows of various kinds and booths where refresh. ments may be purchased. The Ca, naan Band will furnish music throughout the day and in the even. ing dancing will begin at SOC o'clock standard time. Then after dark a display of fireworks will be shown at the field.
 If this doesn't sound like a pro gram of interest, come and see the real thing and we'll guarantee you won't be disappointed.

CANAAN TEAM LOSES TO
 THE AMERICAN LEGION
Also Hands Lit c h f e l d Game in Ninth
 Inning

Canaan dropped its first game of the season last Saturday to the American Legion team of Torring- ton, by the score of 5-3. The play ing of the home team was ragged at times but good work at critical mom- ents kept the score down.
 Torrington had in all probability the fastest team that Canaan will play this year Leonard Dugan, of Holy Cross College, who played cen ter field for the visitors was the star Of the game. He made eight put outs in center field and also two hits and scored two runs. His catch of Fraleigh's line drive in the fifth was a corker. J. Conklin made good catch of a fly in the seventh inning, over the ditch, in left field with his back to the playing field.
 Haniscope only allowed five hits and walked one man. He was hit often enough but the drives were easy f1ys or grounders. Lamson al- lowed eight hits and hit two men. He pitched we'll enough ball to win but the Canaan team gave him poor support.
 The Legion team scored their first two runs in the fourth inning with cut a hit. Holden got a life on Coles tumble of his grounder, went to second on a passed ball and to third on a wild pitch. McCloud struck out. ODugan dropped a fly | ir a left field which Fraleigh muffied. Holden scored and Dugan went to third on this error. Johnny ! Conklin brought Dugan home with sacrifice fly to left.
 Another run was scored in the fifth on singles by c. Conklin, Burns and Holden, with two out, Conklin's scoring.
 Dugan scored in the sixth on his single, a bad throw to second by Scott te catch him stealing on which he took third and a sacrifice fly by Eithier.
 Their last run was scored in the eighth. Holden opened with two bagger to left center but was nailed trying to stretch it to triple by a fast relay Fraleigh to Cole to Bow CT. Lamson hit McCloud with a pitca, ed ball. Dugan singled to right, McCloud going to second. Cole took J. Conklin's grounder and forced Dugan at second. Conklin stealing and McCloud scored. Eithier ended the inning by grounding to Cole.
 Canaan scored their first run in the third inning on Fraleigh's double to left center, his steal of third and Lamson's sacrifice fly.
 In the seventh inning, Scott was safe on Holden's tumble of his grounder. Stanton drew his base on balls and Scott moved along. Hubby lit a sarp grounder to Eithier who stopped on third forcing Scott. With Fraleigh at bat McCloud tried to catch Hubby mapping off first. His throw was straight but it was about three feet over Holden's head end it went out in right field. Both run ners scored as c. Conklin couldn't find the ball in the grass. Fraleigh flied to J. Conklin in left. Lamson singled to right and Fraleigh ran for him. Fraleigh stole second and went to third on Overfeld's single hack of second. Meade was put in as pinch hitter for Kennedy. He had chance to be hero but drove high fly to J. Conklin in left field. Canaan didn't get another man to first during the last two innings.
