Easterner. Jubilnte.

One of the triumphant Fasteners has
celebrated the victory in the following song.
written in the measure of "A Hot Time"
"Come along. get you ready. wear your
colors. white and blue.
For there's going to be foot ball game
and we're going to win 1t. too:
lis today the mighty Centrals, with their
team so big and strong.
Think they're going to beat the Easterns,
but they're surely thinking wrong"
when the Eastern team shoves that bail
straight down the field,
AT last the mighty Centrals the champion
ship must yield.
And when the game Is DER and the victory
is complete.
There'll be a hot time in Eastern tonight.
There is Captain "Sockus" Maupin and our
full back. Charlie Smell;
Spenser Bliss and Chap" at tackles won't
let the Centrals get a smell;
There is Duke" Licarione and his partner
''Tubby" Stark;
Country" Evans at the center is as solid
as rock. (Chorus.)
For our left half We have Worsley and
with Brewer on the right,
The gains around the ends they make will
surely be sight
Jere Maupin plays our left end Hoover
passes back the ball;
They're a pretty pair OF tacklers and have
no flies on them at air. (Chorus)

Bowling Club is a recently Incorporated Or

South Side business men. The club has
built, in connection with Its club house at
AZ and I streets, a complete and carefully
equipped bowling alley, and, as the newest

considerable interest was attached to the
games played last night with the Saenger-
bund team. The number of spectators
again indicated the hold that bowling has
taken upon the public's fancy, as the seat
ing capacity was taxed to the utmost,
many persons standing throughout the en-
tire evenings play.
The club possesses a set of alleys easily
equal to any in the city. In the games
played last night no Inaccuracies were de-
veloped, and taken. all together the new
club Is desirable acquisition to the league
ranks. when 1t is taken into considerati ton
that the Business Men had had no practice
upon their alleys, since they were not fin
ished till Tuesday afternoon, and that ali
Of their preliminary bowling had been done
upon public alleys, their showing last even
ing is considered very fair. The Saenger-
bund men. with the exception of Desio,
who while ordinarily one of the best men
out, put up their usual good exhibition of
ten pins and won the entire series without
extra effort. Desio and Scanlon each made
poodle shots, making, with Harlow Of &. I.
and Kicker of c. A. c.. four candidates for
the poodle prize.
The Business Men opened strong in the
first game, ScElesinger striking and Fuller

pulled up somewhat in the second, and in

After that their work constantly improved,

WOOD PULP TREE CULTURE,
Raising POplars Specially for Manu-.
fncture Into Paper.
tha I'm

REising POplars Specially for Manu-
fncture Into Paper.
From the Minneapolis Times
Pulp men ccncede that no other SUBJ
stance. as yet discovered, is equal to spruce
as basic fiber for white paper. Their
pulp and paper mills consume fully IS per
cent Of all the spruce trees in the United
States Standing spruce I'm Minnesota is Of
ficially reported at 1,O5OOO0,0O0 feet. 1t is
questionable whether our cut for pulp and
other purposes is proportional to that of
some states in the east, where the manu-
facture is more concentrated. To avert a
pending famine of the raw material, diff
ferent companies are buying up large
tracts OF cut-over and abandoned lands to
raise spruce from seeds and seedlings
The annual output for making wood pulp
board is about 5000 tons. From sulphite
pulp, consuming wood pulp. is manufactur-
ed manila paper, whose annual output is
100000 tons. Pulp is also manufactured
into building materials. tubs. pals. mosaic
blocks, carriage bodies, bullets for rifle use,
protective armor for torredoes. scles for
boots and shoes, alcohol, food products,
bedding. silk yarn for garments. In fact,
there is no end to the practical and beauti-
full utilities to which wood pulp is appro-
priated and yet the instructive industry
is but in its infancy. During the last ten
years the increase of the business is esti-
mated at 500 per cent. Spruce does not
impart an offensive odor like pine and some
other woods hence is much sought to man.
ufacture water pals. butter tubs, &c, from
sawed or pulp material. certain per-
centage of poplar is generally mixed with
the spruce pulp to produce the desired
texture. Pulp men use both the white
and black spruces. The latter is more
common. They can readily be raised on
burned or other open and properly drained
areas in the woodlands. In the early spring
Loosen I'D the dark soil to fineness. mix
ploportionately five quarts of spruce seed
with thirty quarts of oats and SOW broad
cast; harrow them in; keep out all fires
and rummaging stock. They will then take
care of themselves. This method is not so
available in the open country. For quick
growth and quick profit from the prairie
plantation. 1t Is better to plant white and
Norway spruces. being harder than the
black, when the seedlings are about six
inches Eigh. Plant in the spring after the
ground is deeply and well pulverized and
summed, placing them. say, four feet apart
for easy culture and in due time thin out
as needed for the ''fittest." Rightly man.
aged. the spruces and poplars can be prof
itably cut when fifteen to twenty years
old. Certain it Is that no other crop will
pay so well in the near future. Such groves
are very healthful. beautiful and protective
to the home and farm. Strange. indeed,
1t is that so many of our citizens. and not
a few farmers. will run wild over the Klon-
dixie gold discoveries, risking life in an
arctic climate, when here in our sunny
region a surer fortune is attainable.

REMEMBERED HIM IN HIS WILL.
Five Thousand POuniM for n Single
Blow.

Blow.
From the London Tit-Bits.
In a match between two northern boxers
some years ago the younger pugilist knock
ed his opponent out of time with the very
first blow, and, by single hit, won 300
guineas. In addition to this sum he clear
ed nearly a thousand pounds as the result
of a betting transaction, and may thus
fairly be said to hold the record for quick
and profitable work in the ring.
Performances of this nature are very
rare, and it is certain that lovers of pugil-
ism would not like them to become more
common. There would be precious lutte
fun for the crowds Of spectators tina. con-
gregate to witness the meetings of our
champion boxers If the contests were to be
finished in the first round, and even those
who backed the winner would not be .,ver-
jubilant at the speedy termination of the
sport. recent match between two feath-
er-weights resulted in easy victory for
the least-favored boxer, who knocked his
rival senseiess within half minute Of
the commencement of the fight. He got
the purse of f100. and goodness knows how
much money besides, but received no ova-
ton from the spectators. who were stupe-
fled by the suddenness of the coup de grace.
They had come to see a tough battle, and
did not relish the fact that the victorious
man had earned his money by two blows
of his fist. 1t was far too easy a method
of obtaining the cash, they said, and
oughtnft to be allowed to occur again.
An impromptu fight between two young
men of position proved still more profitable
to the winner Of it. The disagreement took

me anair caused great sensation in
the town. and the excitement Increased
when the shopkeerer, anxious to show his
gratitude. rather indie icately announced
his intention of willing a large sum of
money to the stranger who had so nobly
defended him. The young man begged him
not TO be so foolish. but the bourgeois per-
