The cause of the accident yester- day at Chichester, N. H., in which Rev, Leonard O. Melville, rector of the Church of our Saviour, was Killed and his wife injured remains undetermined. ~ Whether or not something went wrong with the steering apparatus is not known and may never be discovered, but it is said that the car suddenly went out of the control of Mrs. Melville, who was driving. Swerving off the paved road into saand, it veered back onto the highway and then off once more and into a fence, Bound- ing off this, it turned upside down, pinning Mr. Melville's head under the car and crushing it. The local minister was alive when the police ambulance from Concord arrived, but he died before he could be placed in that vehicle, Mrs. Melville's hand was caught under the car and crushed so badly that it was necessary to amputate four fingers. This was done at the Margaret Pillsbury hospital in Con- cord, where Mrs, Melville is a pa- tient. She was stunned by the accident and it is said that she does not yet fully comprehend the disaster, The police have not questioned Mrs. Melville, she is not in con- dition to be examined. It is under- stood that there were no other automobiles near the Melville sedan at the time the mishap occurred. Mrs. Melville is said to have admit- ted being a novice at driving. An autopsy was to be performed on Mr. Melville today in order to de- termine the cause of his deat Yesterday was Mr. Melville's birthday anniversary. He and his wife were making a trip to Canaan, N. H., where they intended to visit Rev. Charles 8. Wyckoff, retiring pastor of the Plainville Congrega- tional church. Funeral arrangements have not been completed. Henry .

For closeness of score, it was one of the most interesting games of the entire season, the lead see-sawing back and forth and the victory go- the seventh inning. The Men went out in front in the first in- scorc in its turn at bat and piled up a 5-3 lead in the next two frames. The Business Men tied the count in ahead again in the last half. Again in the seventh, with darkness spreading over the field, the Busi- fess Men evened the count. In the second half of this session, with one out, Slim doubled and Gworek singled o bring in the winning run Dulac featured with a perfect eve- ning at bat. Slim also got three hits and fielded ensationally. The game was marred hy constant bickering between players and um- pires, many of the arbiters’ decisions drawing forth long winded protests.

The ‘crabbing” of decisions and protesting of games is beginning to disgust some of the teams, and one or two are already talking of leaving the circuit unless conditions are improved by a return to the spirit of last summer, Last night's box scores: Standard Steel ab. r. h. po. a e N.
