ANNUAL BUSINESS MEETING Reports of Officers and Suggestions for Concrete Borders— Discu: About Rul “The annual business meeting of the national association was held in the club house in the evening, being eall- ed to order about 7.45 o'clock by Pres- ident C. G. Williams. About twenty members were present, representing about a dozen clubs. The minutes were kept by Secretary Frank H. Fos who, after calling the roll, read his ‘minutes of the last two meetings, which were approved. ' He also pre- sented his report as treasurer, which had been duly audited and approved, showing a balance at the beginnig of the year of $13.90, receipts of $404.50, J. C. KIRK, Popular Members of of the drawings for the makeun of the schedule, however, and he went after his games with his characteristic clev- erness. In the several years since he quit the game he has not plaved three games until this year, and previous to coming here he has played but about 20 games this' year, so that he is not in any too good shape for the national contest. Cox had his first game with the champion of last year, Boswortb. In this game the balls changed hands several times, but Cox failed on the fifth arch with both balls and Bos- worth tied him up tight every chance he got. Thereby he was able to play his game and won out by a good mar- gin. Defeated by Clark. Cox was next pitted against Clark and a gamey contest resultad. Cox failed on the first arch, but on several attempts Clark failed to hit and it looked as if tHe game might go to Cox. By one of his clever angle border shots Clark, however, wormed out of a tizun and corraled the balls and got to with- in one arch of a rover. With an open shot after Clark failed on the first arch, Cox failed to hit, and thereafter it was all Clark’s way, and he soon had the game run out. Cox afterwards met Felton and Kirk and took-both games handily, show: some of his old time form. Champion Beaten. Clark disposed of two of his hardest adversaries Wednesday when he beat Cox and in the afternoon when he won from Bosworth. This game was qu. He secured the balls and made a home run before Bosworth had a chance, When he did get a turn he came near to setting the balls on a carom, but missed, and that was all there was to his part of ths game. Clark made an- other circuit of the arches and the game was over before many realized it was under w. Williams Wins. ‘Williams and Webb had a long draw out game which continued into the af- ternoon. The balls changed hands many times, pretty caroms overcom- ing ‘tieups. Webb had three arches to go when Williams by a pretty shot nearly the length of the court got the balls and ran out in & game which was anyone's for a long time. He has now won three straight. The schedule is being run off well and the games are up to the.schedule despite the rain of Tuesday. A new player in the first division was added on Wednesday when C. H. Edmunds of Philadelphia arrived and at once got into tha game. B. R. Veazey of Wil- mington, Del., and family were also here for the day. being on an auto trip to Boston. They leave today, so he will not do any playing. Burns and Whitaker Lead. In the second division the nzwcomcr, E. R. Burns, of Meriden, is in the lead with four straight games to his credit. He plays a decidedly clever game and will be one of ehe leadars at the close. Whitaker is also playing a brilliant game and has won six to one lost. Crowell dropped out of the lead on Wednesday, when he suffered three ra- verses. In the third division Symington and Yonker have plaved their two games each and divided honors. They are now awaiting Flocken to complete the di- vision games. Van Wickle Games. There was a large number in at- tendance at the grounds Wednesday evening when Baker's orchestra was present and furnished a programma of popular music which was heartily re- ceived. On the first division cour the Van Wickle medal games were un- der way and two for each medal were played. For tho first medal Webb is playing the holder, King, and took two games from him in the try for four out of seven. The first game was a long one and possession of the balls was changed frequently because of beauti- ful carom shots. In three instances there was but one ball to hit by these shots and they were successful. In the second game King started off too quick and missed several arches. which gave Webb the chance, and he im- proved the opportunities. There were several fine bank shots in this game. Crowell is playing Whitaker, the holder, for the second medal, buf lost both games Wednesday night. In the first Crowell was shut out, but he mada_some clever long shots in the second game and showed that he is no easy adversary. - Seyeral second di- vision games were played during ths evening. it being nearly midnight when Williamson—got his game from Pren- tice.

It was accepted. President Williams named Messrs. Williamson Kirk and Cox as the com- mittee on nominations. He reported for the committee of arrangements that there was twelve playing in the first division, fourteen in the second and three in the third, and that Mr. King vs. Mr. Webb and Mr. Whitaker vs. Mr. Crowell were contesting for the two Van Wickle badges. Chirman Foss of the committee on grounds reported among other things that the Norwich Rouque and Tennis club had been allowed the use of one of the grounds for a tennis court with the understanding that it would be given up if needed for roque, and that three more Tungsten light had been installed on the two grounds where the Van Wickle medal games are palyed.He said that more beams for borders and more rubber would be needed by another vear, costing about $75 to 385, and in view of the expendi- ture of so much money he recom- mended that the association consider seriously the advisability of concrete borders for at least two of the courts. The work done on the grounds this Year will amount to about $137, prac- tically the same as last year. He re- ported the offer from the Cottage City club of the arche® for three grounds. Some inquiries were made by Mr. Jacobus and he moved that the arches be accepted and that the Cottage City club be directed to ship them by freight. Mr. Jacobus was called on for a report from the committee on rules. The rules were in good shape, he said, except that in rule five it was general- 1y understood that the word “replay- ed” should read ‘“replaced.” The only suggestion made during the year to the committee had been debarring jump shots. Mr. Jacobus, also chairman of the finance committee, said that it had no report for this meeting, but would probably have one for a later meeting. President Williams named the fol- lowing necrology committee: Messr: Jacobus, Wahly and Rodman. names of -E. M. Baldwin and \c)es Meech were mentioned as those of two members who have died during the year. Mr. Jacobus spoke in the way of suggestion about a tendency to /lax- ity about the rules, which he said he had observed, referring especially to giving the ball a second impetus and to talking or moving while a player was about to make a shot. He said that the custom in roque was not nearly as strict as to some of these rule observances as it was in the game of golf. Mr. Cox and Mr. Jacabus exchanged ideas about the appointment of a ref- eree who should call the player in case of breaking a rule, even if the oppon- ent did not see the infraction, this being suggested by Mr. Cox. In the face of all that has been said about croquet as. a quarreling game, Mr. Jacabus said he thought the players were doing much to the credit of the game in conducting it with such “a high sense of honor. Secretary Foss suggested that there were many things to talk over. at length, including cement borders, finances and other matters, and that the meeting should adjourn to some convenient time. The®general sense of the meeting was that nearly everybody could get around by 7.30 o'clock next Friday morning, and the business meeting accordingly adjourned to that time, after having been in session about 30 minutes. Wednesday’s Games. The games played in the tournament ‘Wednesday were as follows: First division—King beat Felton, Cox beat Kirk, Clark beat Cox, Foss beat Felton, Robinson beat Jacobus, Bos- worth beat Cox, Williams beat Webb, Cox beat Felton, Edmonds beat Fos: Williams beat Kirk, Clark beat Bos- worth, Robinson beat King. Webb beat ¥dmonds, Bosworth beat Felton. Sacond division—Whitaker beat How fo Remove A Bad Complexion & (From London Fashions) Cosmetics can never really help a poor complexion; often they are posi- tively harmful. The sensible, rational way is to actually remove the thin veil of stifling, half-dead scarf skin from the face and give the fresh, vig- ofous and beautiful young skin un- derneath a chance to show itself and to breathe. This is best done in a very simple way, by merely applying mercolized wax at night, like cold cream, and washing it off in the morning. Good mercolized wax can be obtained from any well stocked druggist. It absorbs the disfiguring cuticle gradually and harmlessly, leaving a brilliant natural complexion. Of course this also takes with it all such facial blemishes as red blotches, tan, moth patches, sai lowness. liver spots, pimples. etc. As a_ freckle remover and general com- plexion beautifier this old-fashioned unequaled, man beat Prentice, Crowell t Wahly, ’ iner, ad beat lodman ‘b t&‘ ‘rowell, Sullivan But We!: iflndr beat: Sullivan, Whitaker Thompeon beat Adams. | Whitaker hett Crowell, Burns beat Spellman, Webb bea tice, Wil- Whitaker beat Stockwe'l, t Prentice, Burns beat Sullivan, Spellman beat Miner, Burna, beat Rodman, Stockwell beat Prentice, Wahly beat Adams, Williamspn beat Prentice. - Third __ division—Symington * Yonker, Yorker beat Symington.

Expected That It Will Be Finished Today—Values Fixed by Witnesses for Mr. Palmer. In the superior court room here on Wednesday the second day was spent before Judge Shumway with the con- demnation proceedings of the water board to secure the J. Raymond Palmer land in Montville. It is expected that the matter will be finished today. W. H. Richards was given a long cross examination when court opened in the morning, and later R. C. Morrs was called. He valued the farm at $8,000 to $9,000. Charles A. Johnson valued the farm at $7,750, and Charlas §. Johnson placed a value of $7,600 ou it. ‘W. A. Cooke of Mohegan said the farm is worth $8,000, and Joseph Kil leen believes it is worth $7,500. The value fixed by H. L. Rathbun of Mon ville is $7,500. Enginzer Palmer is assisting Attor- ney Fanning in the case. Charles R. Bogue of Montville said it was a rare thing for a farm in Mont- ville to sell for 35,000, but he thought farms are on the increase. He raferred to the purchase of the Haughton farm and the FEaton place in Montville fi $12,000. and $5,000 as it is reported. He valued the farm at $8,000. C. S. Johnson said that in 1899 he went into the witch hazel business, having previously had a saw and grist mill. He placed a value of $7,000 to $8,000 on the farm, valuing 40 acres at $50 each and the remainder at $20 to $30 each. Speaking of the Palmer pond thers, he said the city bought it for abou. $2,000. He tried to buy it before the city did. He was not willing to give as much as the city did. There is a grist mill on the property with a ca- ‘pacity of 100 bushels of grain a da: Mark H. Spalding of New London, a papermaker associated with the Fibra License company of Norwich, and has been connected with pulp making con. cerns, was .called. He said he had looked over the Thames river for a sufficiant water supply to operate a 125-ton mill to cost a million and a quarter. There are five available brooks. Stony brook is one of t brooks. There isn’'t enough water in Stony brook to supply such a mill, h.a thought. For a storage basin it looks very good. The flow of the brook for paper purposes is worth $70 to $75 a day. He valued the property at $47.59 an acre for water purpose: This does not include the buildings and timber. At 4.30 o'clock the matter was ad- journed until this morning at 10 o'clock. Tt is expected to finish the case today. —————————————— | incidents ‘in Society | Ve m————————— Mr. and Mrs. Howard B. Foster and Miss Ruth B.
