feated the Green Island nine at Allen
A field Saturday afternoon by score
Of and 8. The visitors showed up
best at the bat but unfortunately for
them they punched heir errors with
the hits Ct the home team and lost.
Bennington's victory was largely
due to clean up hit by Scott who
made his first appearance with the
home teom. With three men on, the
new first sacker smashed out three
bagger and drove in a triplet of runs.
The Bennington team is rounding in
to shape. Naturally SOME changes
are being made in the lineup as the
players develop and as the season pro
gresss there is good reason to believe
THAT The nine will show considerable
strength The infield is showing the
benefit that has been derived from
ipractice and the team is already in
condition to warrant the patronage of

Idents of Bennington and they are en-

my fellow reporter, William Jennings Bryan's trick hat is out. 1 have men, toned this hat already in these dis patches. It looks something like the cap which gob wears when he is sport ing his navy blues and something like the sort of hat which they used to be- stow upon deserving little boys at state orphanages.
 Some here may have figured that this hat was a part of the unused costume provided for MT. Bryan to wear before the screen in the proposed moving pie ture aimed at the demon rum and en- titled "Hostetter the Bitter" in whicn MT. Bryan, as may be recalled, was to have had the star role. Only for certain reasons the production was never filmed. Such, however is not the correct deduc- tion. I am about to reveal the true reason for this hat.
 Today Mir Bryan was going into lunch. With him were two other of our pro- fession Atsthe door of the dining room the hat checker bandit intercepted them. His companions surrendered their straw tops. But as MT. Bryan rolled his hat into a compact bundle and slipped it into his coat pocket he said, with one of those winning smiles of his:
 This way I save a total of 30 cents a day in tips"
 MT. Bryan counts no day lost whose low descending sun sees 30 cents saved.

MUST PAY S15. GOO FOR
 DEATH OF HOTEL GUEST

Montgomery, June 10.-tSpecia1) - Mrs. D. P. West owner of the old Windsor hotel, on Commerce street, must pay Mrs Nena K. Spratling s15.- GOO for the death of her husband, B. B. Spratling, which occurred when the hotel was destroyed by fire February II. 1918 The supreme court Thursday affirmed the judgment of the Mont gomery circuit court, which awarded Mrs. Spratling this amount.
 Mrs. Spratling sued for s75,000, con- tending that her husbands death re- suited from the negligence of the own CT or her employees and from the fail ure of the owner to construct an eff cient system of fire escapes. Sprat- ling was an employe of railroad and had been stopping at the hotel when he reached Montgomery on his regular run. The bill of complaint contended that he was placed in a room which he had not used before. that he was unacquainted with the stairways and that he could find no means of exit when the fire started
 Attorneys for Mrs,-W West contended that the judgment for sf5000 was ex- cessive. but the supreme court. in an opinion prepread by Justice Sofnerville, said it could not agree with this con - tention and that the jury was in bet ter position to determine what dam ages should be assessed.
