THAT "YALLER" WATER
To the RECORDER:
Can the "Recorder" explain to some
of its Interested readers why it Is that
the new Pickering water gets so very
"yaller" Just after a rain? Or are
only a portion of our citizens so for-tunate
as to get the Pickering article?
And if so, why so? Last Monday after
the hard rain of Sunday night, the
water running from the spigot with
which your correspondent is best ac-quainted,
was a rich yellow In color.
Can it be that the clear and limpid
Pickering ever becomes so debased as
to look like this, or has Its proximity
to the beautiful Schuylklll contaminat-ed
it, or is the basin filled now and
then with slmon pure, rich-colored,
old-fashioned Schuylklll?

Conshohocken lost its second game
Of the secoud series of the Interstate
League championship race last night
to Hancock and the two leaders at the
end of the first series are now battling
for last place, with honors even. Al-though
the locals lost the game they
put up a great article of ball and had
the game run live minutes longer
would, nodonbt, have come out vic-torious,
for 14 of their 18 points were
tallied during the last ten minutes of
play and every thing seemed to be go-ing
their way at the close of hostili-ties.
It was too late, however, and
tr.e Hancock carried off the honors 25
to 18.
The local team always had the luck
of losing to Hancock on the Frankford
Avenue Hall Held, as the floor is waxed
and consequently very slippery, which
evidently bothers "them to a high de-gree,
while Hancock, on the other
hand, has become adapted to It and
experiences very little difficulty in re-tlaning
their footing. The game was
well played by both teams, being fast
and Interesting throughout, but the
slippery floor came into evidence
•gain and this time in the way of caus-ing
offences, the locals committing no
less than six, and were also the chief
offenders.
The first half although Ruth opened
up with scoring Just two minutes after
day was begun, belonged to Hancock,
vho began scoring a minute later, and
vvhen the half was ended, they led by
the score of 12 to 4.
In the second the locals braced thein-lelvea
with the intention of wresting
Ihe game from the home team, but
hey had left their resolve too late, as
the lead acquired by the Kensington-lana
during the first twenty minutes
was plenty large enough to carry them
nit victors to the last. This half be-longed
entirely to Conshohocken. The
locals "played rings" around Hancock,
mil scored II of their 18 points in the
last ten minutes of play.
The features of the game was the
.ami throwing of E. Haldeman. Ruth
and Lang and the all around playing
nf Crawford and West for their re-spective
teams. The line-up:
Hancock Conshohocken

Conshohocken 1 2 .333
Hancock 1 8 .500
On Monday evening the High School
team defeated the West Conshohocken
team by the score of 10 to 8. It was a
very interesting and hard-fought
game throughout. At the end of the
first half the score stood 8 to 4 In fav-or
the team across the river, but In the
second encounter the High School boys
braced up and by superior team work
tied the score. Both teams then agreed
to play until either one had scored,
and after ten minutes of fast playing,
Jones, who has proven himself this
■ i i.m to be a coming star, broke the
tie and virtually won the High School's
greatest victory. The line-up:

The Mystic second team Is desirous
of arranging n game with the Consho-hocken
High School team, and also
with all other teams in the same class.
—:o:—
The Tannhauser and the local teams
will come together again to-morrow
evening in Basket Ball Hall and the
enthusiasts of the town are gently
sighing "what n meeting that will be."
Conshohocken will endeavor to re-deem
themselves for the lasttwogames
played with Tannhauser, which rcsult-
'ed Intwo defeats. Since their last ap-pearanee
in this borough the Wheel
men have been greatly strengthened
by the addition of some of the best
I layers known in basket ball chiles
and the game to-morrow evening will
fully warrant the price of the admis-sion
fee. The locals need all the
games they can possibly get in the
I segue race and will piny with that
aim in view to-morrow, but Tannhaus-er
promises to cut quite a figure In the
i.Hi' and tin' locals will i d then best

Which ever team wins will "get all
that's a comln' to them" before hostil-ities
are ended.

H. Maxwell Harry and W. E. Sup-plee,
West Conehohocken.
Carried over the breast of the big
Knickerbocker dam at Qreenlane on
floating ice, and swept a quarter of a
mile down the Perklomen by the flood
John Molter, of Salfordville. lives to
tell the story. His fellow workmen
never expected to see him again.
Molter, with others, was engaged In
cutting loose the broken ice on the
dam, and a mass weighing perhaps 500
tons floated out with him on the dam.
The high water bore it swiftly along
•ind the man had no chance to escape.
Ho was taken over the dam breast,
falling 14 feet on the Jagged rocks be-low.
The great cake split In countless
pieces and Molter was tossed among
them like a ball. Then he was thrown
Into the current and whirled away
down the stream at a great rate. Far
below the dam he managed to swim to
the edge of the stream and regalu hla
footing. A little later he was none
the worse for his adventure.
The Recorder, $1.00 a year in advance.
