here for the past five years, have dis
posed of their stock of goods to August
Engbergh, of Mason City, taking in the

the world in bowling. there is more in

Prospects seem good for a settlement

of the games last Thanksgiving day be-

Iowa and Michigan, both in Chicago on
one day Chicago now proposes to play
each team on alternate Thanksgiving
days.
Chicago is also figuring for an eastern
game next season, presumably Column

relative positions in the educational

be an interesting one.

were two general prisoners, and when
the guard was disarmed, they provd-

ordered by their battery commander.
While these things were passing in

Sergeant Smith was on his way to the

rival Lieutenant Foley asked A. A.
Surgeon Overton if Howell was in a
fit condition to be left IN command of

was, and reiterated his statement.
There was such conclusive evidence
as broken wheels, lost bolts and nuts;

Lieutenant Howell was very imperti-

camp stating that an inspector general
