ganizaton of the team; that there
would he a few familiar names drop
ped from the batting order. The boys

terrible conspiracy. In the last inning
that Kleckner pitched he used such
an assortment of curves that there
was not a man on the opposing team
who would bat at the ball. AS re-
suit II men walked TO first. Kleckner
did not put them over because he
wanted to establish a record. He sue
ceeded. Twelve men on the opposite
side scored without hitting the sphere.
1t is reported that the postoffice team
has engaged the services of coach
and that bey are playing indoor base

not be verified today.

eI.es- Wednesday afternoon the mar

that Z couple o. RUNAWAY; prisoners
were headed toward this county, The
sheriff: was ab5eu: and thu message was
delivered 10 Owen Newton. his deputy.
WHO with Us King, started ::n,ned:ately
for E'cre>toc. They pat up their team
OF arriving a. the village and planned
to watch there f." me nri So>lc}'s
Shortly ats: their arrival they i;sccv-
cred two men coming along the rail-
road and decided 10 meet them. When
the pedestrians saw the officers they
left the track and TO throw them OF
their guard Newton and King turned
Oft in the opposite direction, out hid
themselves IN the bushes aud watched.
Soon the suspects reappeared and when
they approached the hiding place Of
the pursuecs found themselves covered
By guns and ordered TO throw up their
hands. They made no fight and the
following day were returned to ST..
Cloud.
Nessrs. Newton ana King will re-
ce;ve ol0o for their ride aud the trouble
of making the arrests.
Il IS Supt. Randall belief that the
men deserted their posts OFT Q: pure
Inconsistencies on the part Of Fenholt.
He is much the younger man Of the
two, and like Larson is d native OF
Ereeborn county and has never been
away from home before. He !onged
for home and its companion5hips and
it IS presumed urged Larson to cut and
run with him. Larson made sacrifice
indeed for his friend, for he had been
in the institution matter OF q year,
and was regarded as trusty and reli-
able man and his parole and final dis
charge were events not 50 far in the
distance. He had several times been
in St. Cloud with a reformatory team
wholly unaccompanied by a guard or
other person and it is believed he
yielded to the con talk Of his fellow
tOwnsman in a moment Of weakness.
The fact that the man Sullivan had
successfully evaded capture is also be-
lieved to have Influenced the men in
making the break. An evidence Of
their forethought as to their future
course of action in efecting an escape
was found in the fac: that they took
the trace chains and tugs off the team s
harness, it is presumed for the pur-
pose Of tying themselves to the tops of
passenger trains in stealing rides

Milaca Lawyer Was Not Lucky and
Dropped His Roll.
The wheel Of fortune proved a So
ductive game for Charles W. Kent, .
lawyer from Milaca. but the results
were SO disastrous that he felt con-
strained to tell the police about it.
The visitor from up country SAYS he
was enticed into small show in lower
Nicollet avenue Monday, where he
found a game of chance in full blast.
He says he saw others winning and 50
he tried his luck. The first few whirls
Of the wheel doubled his money, but he
soon began to lose and when the game
stopped he was out $50. He registered
complaint at police headquarters.
The officers state that there have
been other complaints regarding the
place. and official action may be taken.

Our exchange tells US of an editor in
the lower part OF the State who almost
dropped dead in his tracks the other
day when one of his successful county
candidates expressed his appreciation
of his paper support during the cam

renee and the editor would be EXCUSE
bic fOc his action if he should publish
the candidates portrait 50 that the
newspaper men might see for once in
their life time the picture Of an aoge!.

tics that the same fellow will very

doing everything he can to run the
aforesaid editor and his paper out
of the country by starving to death or
by trying to belittle or cripple the ed
itor. There are some men who feel
and show some grateiulneSs to the

over, but the number Of such men is
not sufficiently large to crowd others

WEST CHESTER TROLLEY
Is NOW IN LEGAL WAR

Tho war between the trolley lines in and
about West Chester Pa, has assumed an
interesting phase, and legal battles are
now in order. The secretary Of the COM
monwealth some time ago issued a charter
TO the Coatesvllle. Dewningtown and
West Chester Street Railway Company
Afterwards the Tennis Construction Com
pany. or E A. Tennis, applied for a
charter In the name OF the Brandywine
Electrical Company, covering nearly the
same route. This application has been
held up In the secretary's office, and n
proisA filed against the issue Of the
charter OF George Q. Horwitz. counsel for
the opposition road. Mr. Horwitzs oppo-
sition is based upon the ground that,
under the act OF May "A. 1859. two street
railway companies cannot be Authorized
10 lay their tracks upon the same high
way OF streets; and the application OF the
brandywine Electrical Company sets forth
the same streets In Downlngtown and
West Chester and parts OF the same high
ways as have airesd dy been granted TO the
coatesville. Downingtown and West
Chester Street Railway. Argument upon
this question Is set for tomorrow. Mr.
iiorwitz desired TO appear for his clients
out as his wedding will occur to-day,
Albert b. Kelley and ex-Judge W. T.
sadler will appear In his stead. Attorney
iorwitz has prepared the case. and the
contest promises TO be interesting, as well
as determining several law points.

pRYDocK NEAR NEW ORLEANS.
To BE Received at the City Today
by LOcnI Officials.

NEW ORLEANS Nov. 4.-The great
United States naval dock, known general
ly as the Algiers dock, the largest floating
dock in the world, passed successfully
through the jetties this afternoon and will
reach New Orleans early tomorrow morn
ing, which event win be generally and ap-
propriately celebrated here.
The towing of this immense dock from
Sparrows Point, near Baltimore, to New
Orleans has been one Of the greatest
feats of towing ever performed, the dock
making the speed of eight miles an hour
in spite of the tempestuous weather it
encountered. especially when near the
mouth of the Mississippi River. In going
through the jetties. because of the mar
rowness of the channel, the dock could
travel only three miles an hour.
The dock will be received here tomorrow
by the mayor New Orleans Representa-
tives and other officials. and the day will
be observed as half holiday. The Navy
Department has given notice that the
Illinois. the largest vessel in the United
States Navy, will be sent here to be
docked in the new dock, and it is prob
able that the Secretary of the Navy will
be present at the ceremonies then held.
