one to be given as prize are now on
exhibition side by side in a large
Boston jewelry store, for couple of
weeks, after which the new watch,
suitably inscribed will be sent to Mr..
Higgins. The old watch will also be
returned to him. This old watch was
purchased of the late Zebulon Smith,
an Ellsworth jeweler, by the
late Isaac Grant, about 1910,
and was carried by him many years.
One tragedy figured in the history of
the watch, when brother of Mr..
Grant, to whom he had loaned the
watch, was drowned with the watch
upon him. The watch, uninjured,
was returned to the owner, who
short time before his death, gave it
to Mr.. Higgins, who had been in his
employ a long time.

On the final day IF the second

start, Nick and AL seized the
groundkeeper. Instead of trying
to escape, he chung to both of
them. At once his seven or

when the scuffle was over the
comedians were seen to be hand
cuffed.
Uncle Nick received his pun

They know they will see a good

added attraction, the antics of

little outdoor vaudeville which is
proving popular with the fans all
over the league.
