OBITUARY.

The many friends of Miss Nora e.
Daily were sorry to learn of her
sudden death, which occurred at the
home of Miss Mary e. Lawson, Mon
day, Feb. 10, after an illness of
few months. Miss Daily was born in
Massachusetts over seventy years
ago, and had for the past twenty
five years been employed at the Law
son cottage as housekeeper and COM
panion, or we'll might be said, ''as
one of the family" for to Miss Daily
it was "home," and one which she
loved. Stricken by illness in early
winter, she had fought bravely try
ing hard to regain her former good
health, that she could once more be
up and around the home that was so
dear to her. 1t was only the day be-
fore her death that she came down
stairs, looked around, and spoke Of
how much she loved her home and
how she enjoyed being in it, The
next morning she arose, only to take
a few steps, and lay back on her bed,
where the end came as peacefully as
going to sleep.
Miss Daily was kind and beloved
friend and neighbor, and christian
| woman. She loved books and little
children, especially those connected
with the Lawson family, with whom
she had made her home and had
watched them grow to womanhood
and manhood. She leaves no rela-
tives-only friends, who are many.
Prayers were said by the Rev.

illness of their son Clarence, who
was suddenly stricken with pneumo-
MIA while spending the weekend with
friends. Young Mr.. Emery is a
sophomore in Colby college, and a

He was obliged to cancel several en-
gagements on account of his illness.
Latest reports are favorable for his
recovery.
Mr.. and Mrs. Edwin F. Hathaway

purse of gold, and a handsome set of
gold-banded china. Mrs. Hathaway
was born in Ellsworth, her maiden
name being Mary Wood. She is
niece of the late Dorephus L. Fields.
Both Mr.. and Mrs. Hathaway enjoy

Fred E. Cooke was grieved to
learn of the death recently of Fran
els NJ Byrne, professional friend of
many years, who died suddenly at
the Players club in New York. Mr..
Byrne will be pleasantly remembered
by many in Ellsworth, where, as a
favor to Mr.. Cooke, he twice took
the leading part in "The Burglar"
put on by Mr.. Cooke, with local
talent. Mr.. Byrne ranked high in
his profession, having played leading
roles with Modjeska, Maude Adams,
Ethel Barrymore and other stars.
\ Among the U. S. marines, recently
assigned to duty in the West Indies
is Cecil Haney, grandson of Edward

remain in that republic for an in
definite period, as the marines will
be Withdrawn from that country only
when permanent government is es-
tablished. Cecil joined the marines
at Boston, October 7, 1922. For sew
eral months he was stationed at
Paris Island, S. c. He is now with
the second brigade of marines.
The White Bears have been having
hard going the past week, but the
Ellsworth boys have been taking on
teams that they knew outclassed
them for the sake of giving Ellis
worth basketball fans the opportun-
ity to see fast teams in action. Last
Wednesday night the Bears played
team under the name of the Five
Aces of Bangor, but it was composed
of Heal, Feeley, Carr, and other pro-
fessionals about to take the road for
tour of Massachusetts and New
Hampshire. They had no difficulty
with the White Bears, the score be-
ing 46-1S. Last night the Dover
Foxcroft team, ranked as one of the
best in eastern Maine, played at Ellis
worth. The White Bears were all
"shot to pieces" by grip, playing two
were not even required to show what
was in them to roll up a score of
52-1S.

The CITY Report.

The city report for the fiscal year
ending February 10 is out. 1t is
comprehensive, yet concise report, so
arranged as to be readily under
stood. The municipal officers make
good showing for the year. The city
closes the yea4 with cash balance Oh
nearly $4,000 and the net interest
bearing city debt reduced $4,000.
The money deposited with the city
for perpetual care of cemetery lots,
which for years was carried by the
city as a liability on which it paid in
terest. is now deposited as trust
fund in the three banks of the city,
as it should be. This was done last
year. The result has been greater
confidence on the part of those who
desire in this way to insure perpetual
care of their cemetery lots, and the
fund has now swollen to $5,375, over
$1,000 of this having been deposited
during the past year. A complete
list of the depositors is printed in
the report
Tax Collector Martin L. Adams
also makes a good showing for the
year. Of the total commitment for
1922 of $110,S14.10, he has col
lected and paid in to the city $685.
477.90, together with $416.42 in in
terest on taxes and $127,0S in in
lterest on bank deposit, The amount
uncollected on the 1922 tax at date
of the report was S11, $4,000. The
1921 tax has been paid in full, with
$263.42 in interest.
Altogether, the report is a most
encouraging one. Ellsworth has
spent great deal of money, but with
a tax rate lower than that of many
towns and cities, and we are going
ahead instead of behind.

The politicians are not going to
give up the attempt to kill the
primary bill. A bill to provide for
the nomination of candidates by
party caucuses and conventions, but
as a little bait to the unwary they
dangle on the end of a string the OPP
portunity for other candidates to go
on the primary ballot by petition.
The Bangor Commercial, which is
against the primary but fair
fighter, says candidly, that under the
proposed law there will be little left
of the direct primary except the ex-
pense," for candidates placed on the
ballot by nomination papers would
have little chance against the regu-
lar party candidates.

 There has been enough discussion on the question Of fouls in my match with Jack Dempsey, The charges against Horatio Layslle are unjust because Mir.

FOOTBALL SPIRIT
 AT SCHOOL IS LOW Continued from Preceding Page)

a growing aversion at the school to the methods of Coach Cassidy and yesterdays outbreak was the culnlina- tion, apparently. When a man of the standing of Attorney David L. Dunn, former Yale star, takes up on the side of the boys against the organized and recognized authority of the coach one cannot but believe that the boys must have considerable merit on their side.
 Today many strange and almost un- believable stories are being circulated concerning athletic conditions at the High school. There are stories-and it is hoped that they are but stcries-of fragrant favoritism.
 And there Is in many quarters a firm impression that the present coach, who no doubt personally is a very fine man, is not holding the conf- dence or respect of the boys in his charge.
 The alumni and the city at large will watch with interest the outcome of this latest flare-up.

 Scriggins, Phillips, Howard, Boyd and Robinson were tried at carrying the ball. All of last years quarters were lost by graduation and Coach Martin is trying out Al Fricke, Som CTS, Maxwell and Howarth for the position.
 Lester is the only varsity end back, but there is good material in McLtan, Piper, Clifford, Nevling and Teilmer. Two heavy men have been found for the line in Wcllmer, 2os pounds, and Dunn, 1s4 pounds.

 Sam Jones apparently is Hugsins' choice today in his effect to ciinch | the American league pennant against the Browns.
 Most big league twirlers are poor bntsnieh. But this does not hold good for Pitcher Thurston of the Chi cago White sox.
 e Hes such dangerous man at the bst that the White Sox are seriously thinking of converting him into an outfielder or trying him out at first base. [ Manager Kid Gleason of the Chi cago White sox considers Thurston one of the best relief pitchers in the big show. Had he a better fast ball he would be a regular starter for the White Sox. He has most deceptive fadeway, a good curve and fine change of pace. but his fast ball lacks Dit of the old zip.
 Thurston Is the pitcher who recent ly retired the Philadelphia team on nine successive strikes in one inning, all of the pitches being called or struck at and niissed.g
 Thurston is a good hitter and good hitters are scarce. The White Sox lack punch, and it wouldn't be at .. all surprising if the team tried to use 1'hurston at some position where it could take advantage of his hitting.
 While Ray schalk, star catcher of ,, the Chicago White Sox, is far from :. a hard hitter. he has always been . rated dangerous man at the bat in : a. pinch. Recently Schalk was the vic- {. time of the worst batting slump that |, he has ever experienced in his major Y league career.
 For 10 games, from Aug. 20 to Sept. 1, Schalk went hitless. During that period he himself admits that he didn't hit single ball hard. Every . effort at the bat resulted in lazy fly - or weak grounder to the infield. k
