was James Fee, a farmer near Hyde

way to Scotland and will drop Ia again
on his way back
Judge Templeton surprised up pleas
antly with visit yesterday. He has
been over to Canada and is on his way
home. Governor Bartlett took him in

the elephant, the camels and the other
animals of the Midway by this time.

factory in Fargo or Grand Forks for

l read description OF his process in
the Scientific American a few months ago,
which paper strongly endorsed it and
said it was bound to revolutionize the
flax industry, so it may pay Fargo and
Grand Forks to look into the matter.
One OF the young fellows who does
chore work in the agricultural building
looks at our exhibit with longing as he
recalls the year he put in on the Gage
farm near Casselton-and did not have
the sense to take up land and become
a resident. He says he will return if he
ever earns enough to pay his fare out,
which at the present rate seems long
way off to him.

A very fine pennant for tho North Da-
kota base ball league will be donated at
the close of the season by the st. Paul
Dispatch, one of the spertiest Twin City
dailiee. To further direct the attention
of our ''fans" to the sporting columns Of
the Dispatch that paper announces its
purpose Of shortly starting toprint group
pictures OF all North Dakota league
teams.
In the game Of tomorrow afternoon,
the second league game played here,
Langdon will have on the diamond for
the first time its full line Of players sign
ed for the season and stands the best
show on earth Of bringing the score into
the winning column. Chas. Conwell. one
of the old relisbles from Dss Moines,
will be behind the bat and see that Lari-
more steals no bases. Allie Bergh, in.
fielder and third baseman, is here from
Minneapolis and will take the bag held
down yesterday by Tucker, who has been
assigned first. The accumulation Of
errors in yesterday afternoons game is a
thing of the past.

FIRST LEAGUE GAME.

Errorless Game Up to the Fifth Innings
When the Devils Bunched Their hits for
Seven Runs While the Locals Went Wild
Good Individual Plays Often Made.
The gate receipts at yesterday after
Moons ball game shows that the popu-
larity of the national game is by no
means on the wane in Langdon. The
game was the opening one league Of the
season, and though Langdon lost to the
visiting team. Devils Lake, with score
OF IL to 3, the management has nothing
but commendation for tho home team,
who divided honors with the visitors in q
very even manner, except in the fatal
fifth inning, when the tale of woe made
things look bad for Langdon. The
visitors from the Lake punched their hits
in that inning and the locals conten.ed
themselves with playing star parts in q
comedy of errors, with the result that
when the sixth innings began lead Of
Z scores had been gained.
The game opened at three with Devils
Lake to bat and for two innings every.
thing promised sensational game, neither
sides scored. In the third innings the
Langdon infielders let down tho bars al
lowing the visitors to run up two scores.
In the next innings the tables were turn
cd and run was chalksd up to the credit
Of the home team. 1t was at this juncture
that Devils Lake took advantage OF q
bad attack Of stage fright that seemed TO
affect the locals and gave the rooters q
tired feeling. Lsngdon found two more
opportunities 10 score. in fact 90 did the
boys from the Lake and when the smoke
cleared away score Of ~ 70 8 runs had
been made.

There is much information as well as
several items of local interest in a news
letter from "Walt" Cushing, who is at
Buffalo in the capacity OF assistant
manager of the North Dakota exhibit at
the Pan-American Exposition. He writes
under date OF June 4th, stating that the
North Dakota building was not turned
ever to them by the contractors until
the Friday previous and every thing was
in hustle owing to the endsavor being
made to get = few exhibits in placefor the
dedication Of the building on Saturday
evening. All hands are busy arranging
the exhibit and the booth may have it's
dress complete in another week.
The fine samples Of big oats from Cava-
lier county are not to be equalled at the
exposition. Much attention is also be-
ing called to samples Of a new kind of
macaroni wheat that comes from Ran.
som county. The fine forage grasses OF
the prairie are matters of unbelief to some
of the eastern farmers, who cannot be
convinced that they are not tane pro-
duct. Fortunately we have about 400
fine pictures OF all kinds of North Dakota
scenes and will devote an entire side wall
to them as they tell thestory of our etate
and peoples prosperity and resources
better than any tongue can voice it.
The North Dakota batter, which won
out on the first heat was made by r. F..
Flint, over in Morton county, and it
scored perfect in every eount. He has
sent another tub, thinking that the next
scoring, as at first arranged, would be on
jane 10th, but owing to the lncon-
pleteness OF the refrigeration plant the
next test has now been postponed until
July 10. when il is hoped every cream
cry in the state will be represented.
Speaking OF Cavalier county reminds
me that Hon. Henry McLean's sample
OF oats is bound to take first prize.
They have attracted wide attention
and there is nothing here that ap-
proaches them for size, weight or yield,
the latter being eighty bushels per acre.

the game as played from points should
have been held down to 5 tn 3, which
in view Of the fact that Devils Lakes pro-
fessional aggregation has been together
nearly two months end are in perfect
form should not be considered as dis
creditable showing. In the pitchers box
Kennedy was as steady as clock and
his beautiful work made the spectators
wild. The visitors only got hits off
him while Langdon found the visiting
twirler for IL. From another point also
Kennedy proved his superior ability to
his opponent, having struck ont z men
to the visiting pitchers 5. Bases were
stolen and other advantages taken by the
Lake boys, which brought out plainly
need of great Improvement in local team
work. Langdon has in it's league team
as good individual base ball talent as
any of the association clubs in the state
and the fact will be demonstrated in the
succeeding schedule games. That victory
will perch on the banner of Langdon's
base ball club in tomorrow afternoons
game we feel confident.
