I ANOTHER DROP Irer Johnsons with Patched Up Team Whitewashed by the Independents. A four-point victory for the Independents over the Ivpr Johnsons, Frl-diy night, at the Putnam street academy, In a City league match, sent the winners up to a tic with the BIJous lor first plact and dropped the champions down below the Dry Goods Just above the Roltstones who are in last position Tho result of the match was not surprilng as the champions hae been golnp; backward for the last few weeks and hae tn muh trouble getting bowlprs as the Fltchburg team of the Trolley league While the Ier JohnBons leading, Wee Willie Coleman had no difficulty in picking his assistants mt now the lineup of the team is altogether diffeient. He was the only member of the original team on hand The result naa a joke- as far as fe contest -was concerned as the Independents romped away with every point -without even half trying. The Independents rolled pretty fair but were not called upon to do anything out of the ordinary and so didn't roll up any records although going over the 1300 mark by 45 pins.

The Ivor Johnsons couldn't hit the triangle at all as the total was only 12 pins above 1200. In the first string the losers didn't touch 400 by some 31 pins, while in the second they went over by 28 and wound up the match by getting 451. Opposed to this v.ere strings of 405, 452 and 488, showing a steady increase on the part of the winners. Dwyer with 284 and Fales with 281 were the leaders ivhile the latter came within three pins of a league record with a single of 120. flarls at 269, Littlehale at 2(31 and Barrows at 252 showed that the winners found the thin pins In good Order.

Mecos, a new man, led the losers with 260, followed by Coleman at 256. The others ranged down to 203. The losers had seven singles under 80, going down as low as 65.

How is it done? That Is what you will hear every night nest week If yon attend the Kennett-Moulton engagement The people cannot understand, how for 10, 20 and 30 cents, they can see, a production that puts to shame, mnp- out of 10 of the high priced companies now on the road. This Is the way It 1s done. They make all week stands and save five days' railroad fare for 21 people. They save five days' baggage and scenery haul-ipg, they make hettei hotel rates for a week stand ard last but not least, they engage their and actresses from the best, high priced companies for less salary as performers much prefer the, week stands and they know they are going to get their salary in hard cash, not in laundry bills and promises. This season the management has put forth every effort to present to the public an all-sta: oast and a fine repertoire, selected from a list of over 300 dramas and comedies.

The Finnish Evangollcnl Mission churrh, Rollstone utreet Rev Andrew droop, pas- Springfield Gets Its Seeotd Piece of ElectriciHj DrireB Fire The following article from the Spring- Held Republican of today, descriptive of the new electric fire truck purchased oj that city, will be of interest to Fitch-burg firemen and others: The new electric ladder truck ar-Ived, yesterday morning, an. was un loaded in the New Haven yards neai the foot of Hamden fctieet, early es-terday afternoon. It made its appear- ice on the street in the afternoon id pleased the eye of all a ho snv it, ipecially the tire department people. This is Springfield's secoul piece of electrically-driven fire apparatus, the imiblnation hose and chemical waijon the other piece, being talccn fioni Cleary's shop on New street, Wednesday afternoon. The new ladder truck looks about like the old one, except thlat it doesn't have finv pole to hitch horses to It looks a little bigger 3 a little healer, the p.ilhl is fiesh-and there appear to be more 'ad ders piled on top of it, but otherwise ie two look alike.

The new ladder as Becured through the Combination Ladder company of Froidence, R. eastern agents for the Seagrave3 Lad der company Of Columbus, who made most of the truck parts except the chassis, which came from Couple Gear Freight Wheel company of Grand Rapids, Mich. Jager Anderson of the Springfield Automobile company, the local agents for the couple gear first interested the fire department officials in the electric apparatus, and It was through them that the new hose and chemical was bought. Forest G. Kirsch, secretary of the Springfield automobile company, in expert in the handling of elec-cars, removed the new ladder from the car, yesterday, and will teach the firemen how to run the machine.

The new truck was taken, yesterday afternoon, to the Pjnchon street station and displaced the old water tow- hieh was moved out or doors to make room for the truck. When the new headquarters building of the fire department is finished thetruck will go there to stay, while the new hose and chemical will go to the new Margaret street house. The fire commis sion Have 60 days in which to try out the new truck and place upon It their stamp of approval It cost $10,000, and eighs a little more than 10 tons. The ladder truck is about 52 feet long and the chassis is equipped with the peculiar couple gear company's wheels, each of which have a separate motor. In these lie the tremendous power of the machine.

Each can be operated separately, so that if one, two three of the wheels give out while thB truck is going or coming from a fire, it can be operated by means of the remaining good wheels. Numerous electric batteries stored in the chassis furnish the motive power and these blatteri es arecharged from time to time to time from the generator at headquarters. One of the chief features of the, truck Is the automatic hoist for the aerial ladder. Two cylin ders inclosing heavy compressed springs furnish the power that throws the ladder into the air in an Upright position without the use of cranks, ma when the ladder gets to its up-lght position, a dog drops into place to keep it there. The driver's seat Is on the right-hand side of the truck, pretty well back from the head end, instead of on top and right up at the front, as on the old truck.

On account of this difference It will take some time for the driver to get accustomed to turning corners. The tires are of hard rubber, and double tread, doing away with danger of puncture. The truck is equipped with an 85-foot aerial ladder, one 18-foot roof ladder, a 20 -foot roof ladder, a 55-foot patent extension ladder, a small nine-foot ladder for In- work, one 35-foot, two 30-foot, one 26-foot and one 2-2-foot wall ladders, four regulation fire department lanterns, four eight-foot axes, sledge hammer, wall pick, crowbars, shovels, six fire hooka, pitchforks, tin-roof cutter, wire cutter, door opener, and a battering ram. A galvanized box is placed on the running-board for carrying Hfe nets and 150 feet of manila rope. In addition to the above1 equipment tho truck will carry tools, searchlights, etc.

The rrtaximum speed of the truck is 20 miles an hour Wrestling Match in Lincoln Hall. At a slimly attended wrestling match in Lincoln hall, Friday night, Jim Pappas of Lowell, better known as Young Porkas, took two straight falls from Joe Collins of New YorK The match was advertised very little, window cards in the Finnish laneuacre being the extent of the pub licity so that the match was- witnessed by about 75 peopre. The men were handicapped by a small mat but man aged to entertain the spectators Just the same. The ponce got wise to ine match and Sergt. Charles S.

Brown was present to see that the affair didn't turn into a boxing or slugging bout. Collins had been traveling for some little time so claims he was not condition to. meet Porkas and challenged the latter for another match for any, amount from $300 to $500. Porkas accepted and it was agreed to post the money within three weeks. The match was catch-as-catch-can and Porkas won the fall in 25 minutes by a toe and body hold.

Porkas also got the second In 36 minutes after soma pretty lively work. Musio Service at -Univenalist Cnurch, Tomorrow Night. At the First Universalis church, Sunday night, the pastor. Rev.
