SUPREME COURT The appointment of James C. Mc- Reynolds, United States attorney gen- eral, to the United States supreme court will add to that tribunal a law- yer who is known to have pronounced and advanced ideas in regard o the Sherman anti-trust laws. Mr. Mec- Reynolds before he became attorney general had had large experience in the enforcement of the anti-trust laws especially in the tobacco trust and the so-called an- thracite trust. As special counsel in the tobacco trust case he differed from Attorney General Wickersham as to the form of the dissolution de- cree. Mr. McReynolds contended in the tobacco trust case and has since applied the same theory as attorney general that in any dissolution pro- ceeding the constituent parts of the trust should be disposed of to inde- dependent shareholders, SOME SUPERSTITION, A New York fan who believes popu- superstitions work out with a re- se English, says the Braves will win the pennant hands down. “Nothing to it,” said the George Stallings the other night in front of the Somerset hotel in New York. “Look here, what club could | fail to have luck when they have the old number ‘18’ slgn on them the way your club has?” This is the way the fan figured it: James E. Gaffney—13 letters in the name. Johnny Evers—Bought by Gaffney January 13 and played first game with Noston April 14, 13 weeks later. Club started to climb during 13th week of the 'season.

Y., Aug. ain | stopped the play in the tennis tour- | nament on the turf courts of the| Meadow club here yesterday before many of the afternoon matches had been completed. The important match of the afternoon was in the doubles with Maurice E. McLoughlin and Thomas C. Bundy, the national champions, facing Nathaniel W, Niles and Alfred S. Dabney. The latter were out-volleyed and out-smashed, McLoughlin playing at the top of his game and the Californians winning 6-2, 6-2. At the finish of this match | pace and the Nutmeg. ! ter named are valued at $2,000 except | the owner and driver of prominence. There will be a big card of racing every day with a big feature event for each, These include the Charter Oak, the Capitol City, the Elmwood, the Corinthian, the Acorn, the free-for-all All of the lat- free-for-all, in which is $2,500, While the Grand Circuit races are of prime importance to many, they are of a secondary consideration to others, as the Connecticut fair is the greatest agricultural exhibit of the east, The list of premiums just announced by the fair assoclation amount to $20,000, which, with the racing purses, brings the grand total up to $50,000. At Charter Oak every fall may be seen the best the state produces in every line of endeavor, agricultural or otherwise, and the evi- dence of the development made in each line. The fair is really a liberal education in itself, Among the inter- esting departments will be one de- voted to women's arts, crafts and in- dustries and also a boys’ and girls’ de- partment. The fair association will be ex- tremely liberal this year in the mat- ter of free exhibitions, These include Dr. Carver's famous driving horses, the Castle House dancers, the Girl in Red, troupes of acrobats and sensa- tional novelty acts never before sesn in Connecticut. The midway, while it will be free of anything bordering on the offensive, will be livelier than ever and will provide a laugh to the inch, The midway has been straight- ened and this year one may get an unobstructed view for the whole length, thus being enabled to “take in” all the free shows at”once if it is 8o desired, A big dispiay of brilliant fireworks each night and athletic events during the day are among the other numerous features of the colos- sal exhibit.
