Ism & II possibls for q foot ball team
to be bs:sssn without converting them
Into blasAs uar sad aestsAy ying their
|veracity "a week ago last Saturday
the Paynesyille team came TO this city
and played friendly game with the
high school team, and were beaten by
score of 30-to-0, and apparently
everything passed off pleasantly. But
tAe New Paynesville Press took occa-
sion to write a bitter article, charging
that our team had only three high
school boys In it; that the boys were
profane and obscene in their abuse OF
the visitors, and attempted to gouge
out the eyes of the New Paynesville
boys, and furthermore that they did
not secure the money promised them.
Now, these are serious charges, and
should not be. lightly made,' and the
HERALD has taken every means OF in
vestigating them, and lays the plain
facts, without comment, before its
readers.
The Sauk Centre team was composed
of: James Irsfeld, sophomore; Will
liam Davis. junior; Ed. Bay, fresh
man; Ray Dean, senior; Ray David.
son, junior; Roy Smith, special
course; William Johns on, freshman;
Gland Doyle, freshman; Chas. Was
son, eighth grade; Rob. Carr, and
Mat Vanish, who left school before
gradution The list of names is suf-
ficient refutation of the charge OF pro-
family, obscenity and slugging. They
are all young gentlemen. So far as
the money question is lnvolved-ten
dollars was guaranteed Raymond
Dean met Prof. G.. j. Buckland, man
ager of the team from Paynesville,
who expressed himself pleased with the
treatment, and said that his team had
been fairly outplayed. Mr.. Dean, IN
counting out the money, found that ne
had but 1915 in his pocket, and Of
fered to step into the Dean Office near
by and get the balance. The profes-
4 sor said, ssnever mind-this is all
right" The HERALDvouches for this
statement on the word of half-dozen

The Rev. IrI r. Hicks Almanac.

There is no comparis on between
former editions, and this splendi d
Almanac for 1900, now ready. Print
ed in beautiful colors, on much finer
paper, it's 1876 pages are packed with
Invaluable information on storms
astronomy and meteorology. 1t is IL
lustrated with nearly 200 finest half

superb book would sell anywhere for
fifty cents, but it cost only 25c. a
copy, and every subscriber to Rev.
Irl r. Hicks's now famous paper,
Word and Works, at $1.e0 a year,
receives this elegant Almanac as a
premium. Word and Works is a
recognized leader among the best
family and scientific journals, while
nothing of its kind can compare with
the Hicks Almanac. One dollar a
year is a nominal price for such
unique and useful publications. Pro-
fessor Hicks has justly, and of neces-

then included Stearns county, is
again in custody for bank swind-

One of MiIIions.

Once upon time there lived man
who wanted only few things that
everybody wants. He wanted plenty to
eat and drink, leisure and the woman
he loved. But he found that to have
time to himself to make it possible to
live pleasantly with his sweetheart and
give her all he wanted and to take care
Of the children that they might have
to do all this he must have great deal
of money. So he went to work and
built up great business, very COM
plicated machinery. To this money
producing machinery he was forced to
give most of his energy. It'gave him
no time for leisure, no energy for en-
joying the sunshine. his wife and chill
dren. But he began to enjoy the ma
chinery of his business. azspie
When he had made a large fortune,
the only thing he enjoyed was the ma
chinery by which he could make more
money. He had lost his interest in the
things for which he began his business.
Perhaps he still had interest in food,
his wife and all the naive physical and
sentimental pleasures. but it was a
blunted, dull interest. The only live
interest he had was his business. New
