A summary: of the recent city series, in which the Emetalds defeated the Independents two games to one, is of interest to all fans in this city and cinity, in %iew of the present series with the Sachems of Norwich for- the <championship of Eastern Connecticut. Both in batting and flelding the win- mers outclassed the Independents, who were weak af the bat before the “spit- ters” of Lefty Smith, showing only one batter in_the 300 class. O the other hand, €omins, Cochrane, Adams and Smith all hitting far above that mark, with Henry figuring as the star pinch hitter, clouted everything put up to them ‘in_a similar manner to the stel- lar lights of the Braves. .In a similar way, too, the heart was taken out of the Independents, as with the Athletics, when the KEmeralds found “Mon” Peloquin in_ the first game of the series for 15 safe bin- sles. _In the second game of the series, Hamel held the Emeralds down and won his game, 4 to 1. Manager Mec- Carthy says, however, thqt morning games are his hoodoo, and the Emer- alds would never lose if they played no games before moon. Hamel went in again for the third e, but his former teammates found him in the first inping, and put the game on ice. Babe Adams, who pitched his first big ball game for the Emeralds, pla: ed at first base during the series as if born to the place, and was leading “fence-breaker” getting seven hits for a total of fourteen bases. Com- ins with an average of 616 lead the batters, with Cochrane ‘at .400 and Smith at .358 well up on the list. Mec- Dermott obtained the most free pass- es, while Noel and Comins made the most errors. Henry played a fine game and was there with the stick when hits were needed. McDermott played fine ball in the left garden, and made some great. jches, at one. time throwing out the funner at first on a sure hit. Anderson caught a good game and in- stilled lots of “pep” into his team. Anderson . Killourey Holmes . Peloguin ‘A. Nichol 3. Nichols . Ryan . Independents. games were as follows: R H. E.

The current issue of the Telephone Bulletin gives the number of stations in the Danielson division as 700, in the Moosup dlvision as 370. The ter- Htory of these two divisions was for- merly included in the Danielson dtvi- sion. The Putnam division has 1,544 stations. Establishes New Low Cost Record. Tred Princeton, member of the out- side force in the Danlelson division of the S. E. T. company, geéts prom- inent mention in_the owrrent issue of the Telephone Bulletin in an articl entitled Automobile Costs. Mr, Prince. ton drives one of the company’s ma- 0 doing he has established a Tow cbst record that is unequalled in the state, the figure of overage cost per day in use being $1.81. The article say As thére has been some comment about the low cost of the Danlelson car, the following fig- ures may be of interest: This car (a runabout of a well known make) was put-in service' April 18, 1913, and up to August 1, 1914, has covered 10,- 159 miles in 335 days of actual servicé at.an average cest of $1.81 a day, er an average-cost of 19 cents per mile. The operating cost includes tires, gas- oline, oil, grease and repairs only. It has been disabled but.one day during this time and has averaged 20.3 miles to the galion of gasoline. Although its average daily mileage is less than 34 miles,” it has taken care of all the trouble in the Daniel- son and Moosup pxchanges except in a few cases of severe lightning trou- ble. This comparatively low daily mileage is in a measure made pos- sible by systematically planning the work so the ear does not' cover the same territory twice in the same day unless this is absolutely necessary. It is often said that the life of tires depends--on Jone's iuck. If this were true, Fred Princeton, the driver of this car, shoufd visit Monte Carlo. As a matter of fact, the life of tires de- pends on something other than' luck, and that is good driving. Of the orig- inal tires on this car, one of the rear ones has run §,300 miles and the other 9,550 miles. The front tires wére still on the car August 1, having traveled the full distance of 10,158 miles. The large tire tileage in & measure ex- plains the low operating cost. The credit for the good service this car has rendered is due to the care and drivipg of ‘Mr. Princeton.” The article is illustrated with a cut of Mr. Princeton seated in the famous little machine, which he keeps in im- maculate order, giving it at least an hour of his attention each night after his day’s regular work is done. WILLIAM A. JOHNSON DEAD. Prosperous Jeweler in Borough for Over -Forty-five Years. ‘William A. Johnson, 78, died at his home on Main street Saturday eve- ning at 7.30. He had been in ill health for about four years and had been con- fined to_his liome for the past tw years. Mr. Johnson was the ol and _best kpown of Danielson’s bus iness men, although he had been Te- tired for about five years, - He came here from Worcester about a half cen- 0| ~epeeches & tury ago and. engaged in the jewelry business. His business career in Dan- ielson covered about 45 years and during that long period he was' very successful and became known through- out this section of the state. As his wealth accumulated he in- vested in real eatate in the borough and became one of the heaviest of the individual taxpayers of the town. He was an active business man during all the period that marked the’ borough's growth from e straggling village to its present proportions and outlived near- Iy all of his contemporaries in trade. He was a citizen who commanded the profound respect of all who knew him. A man of superior abilities, his advice and_counsel were often sought an: freely given' to. fellow citizens and it was with deep regret that they re- ceived the announcement of hig death. Mr. Johnson was born in Worce: ter the som of -Anson and Mary (Biood) Johnson, ~ He. had mastered the jeweler's trade before coming to - | Danielson and found here a fleld that was to engage his attention through the remainder of his long life. He was a man of many fine traits of charac- ter and soon became prominent in'the town. Heé always was held in fhe highest esteem by all who knew him. Mrs, Johnson, who was Mpts Har- riet A. Knight, died about 25 years ago. Mr. Johnson is survived by one daughter, Florence, of Danielson and by a nephew and nieces. For Burial Here.
