There were fifty games played in the national ue ~ tournament here om Thursday and in the first and second divisions exactly half the games have been played, leaving two days in which to play the femainder, In the first di- vision forty-four games have been played, leaving sixty-one to be played, while in the second division forty-one have been played and twenty-five re- main.> In the third division the piay is_about over. There were many changes as the re- sult of the Thursdav games, but de- spite the glaughter of the champion and,( ex-champions, Willlams maintained his lead and when the lights went out he had five victories to his credit and no losses, with King in second place and Champion Clark in fifth plice, having i0st & heartbreaking game to Robinson during the evening. The best men of the first division have each other to meet as yet, and it is figured that the winner of the tournament will lose two to three games at least.

The Gea. W, KiesCo. - Never Mrs. Nancy C. Rogers of Montville rounded out her one hundredth year of lite on Monday, August 16. Born in Groton, August 16, 1809, Mrs. Rog- ers has before her the possibility of seeing 4t least another birthday ere she goes to the silent land. [She is still in possession of all her faculties. There was no attempt at any formal recognition of the anniversary, but several friends called during the day, and congratulated her, wishing her many happy returns. Before her first marriage Mrs. Rog- ers was Miss Nancy C. Perkins. Of her first marriage, one daughter, Mrs. Nancy M. Street, sill survives. 'After the death of her first husband she married Lyman Rogers, ten children being born to them. Only one, Fran- cis. R. Rogers, survives. There are now living, in addiiton to these, seven grandchildren and three great grand- children. Mrs. Rogers now makes her home with her granddaughter, Mrs. Nan Sawyer, in Palmertown. Mrs, Rogers in all her long life- time has never had occasion to use spectacles and her eyesight is remark- ably good today.

A carom put him into the contest again, however, and he ran the game out after 11 o'clock after Webb had given him a scare. Bosworth wen_three games Thurs- day, defeating Baker, Hogeland and Robinson, while Williams got the best of McDonald and Jacobus, but has the cream of the division to meet as yet. Harold Clark is playing a strong game and Edmunds and Jacobus feli before him, his standing at the close of play being ahead of his brother, whom he will probably meet today. Champion. Again Lose: A game which kept the experts until a late hour was that between Cham- pion Clark and Robinson. The latter has been playing long and careful games and by oniy a pretty carom did Williams get away from his clever play ‘Wednesday night. Clark made a poor start and there were several misses Thursday evening, all four balls being for the basket on the return at one time. Robinson got away from here first and got a rover. Clark got the balls again and on the last quarter arch made the fluke which cost him the game. A short distance from the arch in none too good position he tried the arch and hung in the wicket with the live ball near a hand: Robinson there- after gave him several open long shots but Clark failed and Robinson run out the game, geiting the applause of a bunch of cracks who waited for the end. 3 Mrs. Kephart Won Game. There was a large audience o wit- ness the games on Thursday evening, and particular attention was directed to the exhibition game by Mrs. Kep- hart_of Philadelphia and A. R. Webb of Hot Springs, Va. It was a slow game, occupying all the evening, but after many difficulties Mrs. Kephart got the balls to working properly and won_out, Webb being for the third quarter and the cage returning. Another exhibition game was that between Jacobus and Williamson, in which the former gave a handicap, it being necessary to put the white ball through the arches at the same time with_the black. This was marked up to allow a tournament game ‘to be played. Meeting This Afternoon. It was announced Thursday evening by Secretary Bighop that the adjourn- ed meeting would be held this after- noon at 2 o'clock. At this time wili come the appointment of committees Dby the president, and the movement to take the tournament to Philadelphia will come to a head. The matter will be presented chiefly on the point that the grounds here are not in the proper cordition for the national tournament 10 be held on and that they need more attention. As far as can be learned this s the vital question, but there is no reason to believe that the grounds at Philadelphia would be in any better condition next year, barring the few on which the local games are played. Some of the players are used to fine grounds whera expense is not a ques- tion and the local grounds, which be- long to the national association, could be kept the samé if ‘the association says so, the expense being the only question. The grounds here can be put in as good condition as any in ¥hiladelphia are or can be, and this will be made clear to the meeting to- day, it is believed, Providence is op- ‘posed to the chamge and it is said the Washington delegation is_solidly op- posed to it. Norwich, Willimantic, New London and Danbury. are not in tavor of the change. Philadelphia js here strong for the tournament, how- ever. Weather conditions make Philadel- Phia a poor location and. with the change to that city many of the ex- perts feel that the national tourney will become simply a Philadelphia af- fair and instead of booming the game it will haye a deadening effect. The agitation has stirred up the delegates considerably and it is be- lieved that another vear will find the courts in much better condition, with harder surfaces because of use and with no defects. Several Important Games. The defeat of Bosworth on Thurs- day by King was one of the important games of the tournament. Both play- ers had numerous opportunities but Bosworth wos bothered by his lame wrist and made miss after miss, being finally tied. up at the three quarters arch. Browning succeeded in shutting out Webb Thursday morning, the latter not being able to make an arch. His game is mot up to his standard this year and as yet he has not won a game. FHe played too carefully and fails to take the chamce which will often give him the game. In Philadel- phia, hovever, he has been doing some great work. division has been having a similar slump. King got his game from Wahly in quick time on Thursday not giving the champion a crance to show his ability. Wahly was shut_out admirably.

On Thursday afternoon Bullard's or- chestra of three pieces furnished a pleasing programme while in the evening there were six pieces in the orchestra, the music being greatly e joyed.

The standing of the players as the result of the games played is as fol- lows: a, few as there are foreshore righ have either been ignored or overlooked and as soon as any attempt is made to fill up or otherwise alter the shore line an. Injunction will probably be served. «There are certain deeds in the possession of the Bolles family which show that part of the property now sought by the Bigelow-, iman Con- struction Co. was sold, y years ago “ltb%:nrmrv‘flofl of rights on the river front. The fact of the construc- tion company desiring to fill up this foreshore may give rise to some liti- gation. It is Jearned that the owners of these rights are not in any way adverse to the introduction of an in- dustry which will benefit the town, but are keenly alive to the exigencies of the occasion. The old Johnson wharf has a long history. As far as memory goes, and that seems to be a trifle further than records tell, William Bolles was about the first man to attempt to build a whart where the present one stands. Long years ago Isaac Turner conduct- ed a small grocery store on this wharf. The first man to really put up a substantial wbarf was William G. Johnson, the ancestor of the present Johnson family. This structure, in course of time, had to be rebuilt and the work was done by .Edwin and Charles Johnson. ‘When the old dye- mill was flourishing, logwood laden schooners were an everyday affair at the wharf and there was something doing all the time. In recent years the wharf has been chiefly used for coal storage and the shipment of rail- road ties and car timber. HIT BY WESTERLY CAR. Eugene Bromley Was Sitting by Track and Had Narrow Escape. Rollinsnn Suppe Adams Margis played | Eugene Bromley of Mystic struck by the $.15 car from Westerly on the Norwich-Westerly line Wednes- day evening and narrowly escaped be- ine Killed. ‘Bromley had been attending the peace meeting at Mystic and, it is said, had imbibed so freely that he was in that happy frame of mind when he felt at peace with'all‘the world. After arriving in Westerly he had taken a Norwich car and thinking he had reached North Stonington, his destina- tion, he left the car et the Varietyville road crossing between Westerly and ‘White Rock. Finding he had made a mistake, he sat down beside the track to wait for the next car and quietly think over the situation. ‘When_the 8.15 car, in charge of Con- ductor Rudolph Peterson and Motor- man Murphy, eame along, about 8.20, the motorman saw the man in time to throw on the brakes and check the speed of the car, but not in time to avoid the accident. The car struck the man in the head and bowled him over unconscious, The car was stop] and, not knowing the extent of the young man’s injugies, the conductor ordered the car back to Westerly, where Bromley was taken to the office of Dr. J. L. May. An exam- ination showed the extent of the in- juries to consist of a long scalp wound on the back part of the head. A num- ber of stitches were required to close the gaping wound. In lieu of better accommodations, Bromley was taken to the police station, where he passed the night. The car was delayed about thirty minutes because of the acci- was First Division. Won. Lost.

The Pope's Nickel Watch. There is one humble relic with which nothing_will ever induce the Pope to part. The relic is his watch— a little cheap nickel watch. “Tt mark- ed the minutes of my mother's death- struggles,” he says, “and the hour of my definite separation from the outer world, from space apd liberty. It has marked all the sad, all the joyous, all the solemn moments of my life, What jewel could be more precious to me?’ He - carries it fastened to a white silk cord, in the broad sash that he Wears-round his_waist; and.he did not hesitate to offend against the eti- quette that hitherto had obliged the Pope, when he wished to show the time, to apply to one of his prelutes in_waiting.

A prominent Meriden merchant is proud of. the ifact that he “has never taken a vacation.” He loves his work, which, of course, is commendable and accounts for his success in'life. And yet who will affirm that it is a wise plan never to take a vacation?

Julius Wilcox Burr, who died at his home in East Berlin Aug. 6, was born in Haddam June 21, 1822, and was de- scended from the Fartford branch of the Burr family and was also of Rev- olutionary ancestry., His father died when he was very young and he was thrown on his own resources at 10 years of age, and has lived an active business life marked with energy, pers severance and industry. For several years he has lived a retired life, but was formerly a contractor in the Peck, Stowe & Wilcox company, was a di- rector in the Berlin Iron Bridge com- pany for fifteen years and was presi- dent of the J. O. Smith Manufacturing company of Middletown at the time of his death. He never took an active part in politics, but was a staunch re- publican, and socially was connected with Mattabessitt lodge, K of P. of East Berlin. Mr. Burr married Julie E. Cornwell of Middletown .and to them were born three daughters, BEmma E. who mef-| ried Roderick Loveland of Middletown, Ella J. (deceased), who married Her- bert E. Smith (deceased) of Middle- town, and Lucie E., wife of F. Percy Hickeox of Waterbury, and six jgrand- children and one great-grandchild. Mr. Burr was a faithful member of the Third Congregational church of Mid- dletown. He was notably reliable and had the entire confidence and respect of all with whom he came in contact. A Speculative Review. Speculation_as_to what might have happened if the Rev. Mr. Mitchell had not jumped out of the boat to rescue a drowning boy is not very profitable.

He could have dropped his sail, brought his boat about and, with the power he had, returned to the spot where the drownihg boy was in a ve short time. It might not have been in time to save him, but the chances would have been better than they were after he had jumped overboard and left the boat in the hands of boys who knew nothing about what to do with it. Had he remained, he could, in a_few brief words, while returning, have coached the boys as to what they should do while he was in the water. and he could easily have shown them how to ‘keep the boat comparatively near while he was overboard.
