The second game was a pretty exhi-
billion.
1t was a battle between Hallowell
and Hickman. 1t was Hallowelrs first
appearance here. and he created a very
favorable impression. Such work as
he did yesterday will win four out OF
five games. He had plenty Of speech,
good curves, and excellent judgment.
Runs were very scarce in this game,
and it looked for a time like Wheeling
would be shut out. Although there are
2 great many figures in the error col
umn. the game was distinguished by
brilliant fielding plays. Robinson
made two throws to the plate from
right field which brought down the
bleachers. each throw cutting off run
ner. Taylor made a number of mis-
PLAYS. but also did some brilliant work.
McGinnis and Rinehart both covered
acres of territory in left garden.
New Castle scored in the first in
ming. Fleming led off with a two
Dagger to left field fence and took third
on Miller's out at first. Russell hit to
HaIlowel. and in attempting to stop
the ball it rolled between first and sec
end. giving Russell a life and allow
ing Fleming to score. In the seventh
inning. Graffius lifted the ball over left
field fence for the second run.
Wheeling scored for the first time
in the eighth. Taylor knocked a clean
single to left, and went to second on

OBr.en was retired at first, and Taylor
came in on the play. In the ninth the
score was tied, after two men were
out and half the people had started
to leave the grounds. loft hit TO Mil
Ter. who fumbled the ball, giving him

thousands Of acres TO wheat, owing to

fore May /. This is too late to insure Il

Sioux or Missouri valleys on the bottom
lands. All Of these bottoms are COW
cred with water, which cannot
drain off in time for planting any
kind of a crop. The acreage OF
corn will also be much lighter than
miIlet VIII pA tunSoirtutuokA . ana
is going TO work a change in the meth
DDS Of farming in South Dakota. Farm
ors are deeply interested in
and sheep raising. and although but rev
have yet began to raise sheep they are
all preparing to do so. The over produc-
ton of wheat, oats and corn is respon-
sible for his new departure. Creamer-
les have proven a source of profit ana
have the advantage of affording the
farmer a means of realizing cash the
year round for his products. This is an
advantage that will also be appreciated
by the country merchants, who have
been obliged to carry long accounts
with the farmer from year to year.
The Chicago, Milwaukee and st. Paul
railroad has taken the initiative in the di-
rection of encouraging sheep raising. The
land which this company owns Will be
sold to immigrants on easy time on condl-
ton that the settler maintain a flock OF
sheep from the start. This company has
such confidence in the ability of the set
tier to meet all payments that almost any
arrangement can be made for this land
subject to these conditions. The railroads
act as the only immigration bureau the
state now has, actively working for new
settlers, and they have decided that the
failure of so many farmers in the north
western part Of the state is due more
largely 10 the way they farm than to The
locality in which they reside. Cattle n
hogs will receive more attention in the
future in the northern counties of South
Dakota.

get A RUSSIAN CONTRACT
Plate for Two Battleships Now
Building for the Gar.

P%ittsburg, Pa, April 17.--If the state
nent of an authorized representative Of
he Carnegie Steel company is to be be-
ieved this monster steel concern a al
ready in its grasp the contract for 5000
IONS of armor plate, to be furnished in
haste to h Russian government, for
!wo b~attleships, instead of its being
asked to bid with the Bethlehem COM
a for the same.
The Carnegies have done much work
,or the Russian government and they
ave been rendered the contract at q
fXed price. That the big Pittsburg
irn has already signed the contract, or
viii sign II at once, is borne out by the
GLOWING statement made by a Car
legie representative last night:
we had made all arrangements to
lose down the Homestead armor plant
N June /, as our contract with the gov
,rnment at that time expired, but the
Russian affair puts a different face on
the matter. You can safely say hat
the armor plate mill will be running
after June l."
There is much speculation yer the
price to be paid by Russia. and it is
scarcely thought here that the price
viii be as great as that formerly paid
% Carnegie by Russia, namely, $3.50.
The Carnegies made their first armor
)late for Russia at that price when Ger
many was turning it out for $3.50. One
II position TO know says that Russia is
laying 50, 800, 900 for the plate. a trifie
over $500 per ton.

William Mckinley is destined to be
one of the most popular Presidents
personally, that ever occupied the
chair. Almost from the day OF his in
auguration the newspapers of the conn'
try have contained references TO his
affability and composure under all cir
cumstances. and to his unaffected and
sterling Republican qualities. Among
the many m of this nature we
reprint the following from the Phila-
delphia Bulletin:
1t looks as il Mckinley may become,
personally, the most popular President
the country has had since tie time OF
Lincoln. A careful reading Of the re-
ports of the impressions which his con-
duct in the White House has thus far
made on observers of a large variety
throughout the country of all parties
politicians, Congressman, newspaper
men, social critics and business men
is distinctly and strongly favorable.
His simplicity. candor and ~amiabillty
seem to be engaging. and without sign
of the weakness which often goes with
those qualities.

TRAMPS ARE THICK AT LENNON
Trying TO Devise Means to Drive
Away the Pests.

Chamberlain, April 16.-The author
tiles Of the sprightly little town of Len
o have a p~erplexing problem con-
fronting them. 1t is nothing more or
less than how to discourage the influx
OF tramps, who, because of generous
treatment in h past have overrun
that vicinity to such an extent that
something must be done to discourage
the pilgrimage OF the town treasury
bids fair to become depleted. The rea-
son why so many tramps go there is
because they get first class accommoda-
lions and never fail to convey informa-
ton of this fact to others of their gen.
try. The town jail has during the Win
ter and spring been kept unlocked es-
pecially for the comfort of tramps, and,
as ii is provided with a stove and beds,
all the tramps ave had to do was to go
around town, beg coffee and other pro-
visions, return to the Jail, start up a
rousing fire and live more comfortably
tina the average hard working laborer.
Some of them have even had the nerve
to apply to the town marshal to be
taken to n of the local hotels for
meals and the taxpayers Of the town
have had to foot the bills. Now there
Is a decided inclination on the part OF
the citizens to protest against this
wholesale imposition on their generos-
ity, and 1t is proposed to put all tramps
at work on the streets when caught
making application for handouts.

The weshiuutnp Nav

Washington once said: There is no
doubt of the wisdom of the policy of
giving protection and encouragement
In any proper legislative form to do
nestle industry" And yet these latter
day free-traders, who have assumed TO
possess exhaustive knowledge of every
thing in heaven above and in the earth
beneath, have even dared to say that
the protective tariff was not constitu-
tional. 1t Is too bad that they were
not present to give Washington a few
tips on the correct Interpretation of the
Constitution. The ordinary American
citizen, however, is content TO accept
Washington's Interpretation of the Con-
%stitution with the Interpretation of
those other statesmen who helped frame
the Constitution, and who, fresh from
that work, introduced and passed the
first protective tariff law ever enacted
in this country, and to which Washing
ton put his signature.
