 Sympathy for Hartford is in order until pr Reisling can get team of ball players. He picked out fast run ners, evidently mistaking the contest for a sprinting match, and forgetting that it was necessary to know how to play baseball Reisling is the sort of fellow, however. who will not rest un- til he has fixed up his team, and be- fore the season ends we expect to see a real baseball team in the Capitol City. At present it doesn't amount to much, and it takes all the super fiuous wind of the young men who essay to write baseball to keep 1t go- Bridgeport Farmer.
 The Waterbury High School Base Ball team played it's first game of the season yesterday. They played the Torrington High School team in Tor rington and won by the score of 12-9. As the score indicates, the game was very close and exciting. The Water bury players played remarkably well. The line up Of the teams was as fol- lows: Waterbury = Mccarthy. 2b, McNellis, 3b, Murray, If, Connor, ss, H. Cook, c. Hickey, of, A. Cook, If, Daily, 1b, Dawson, p. Torrington- Curtin, ss.

 A word of advice to manager Har- rington. Just place George Prentiss, alias Wilson, on the blacklist and let him either play in the American league or jump to California. He certainly is not making good in Boston and if he goes to Milwaukee as he threatens to do, he will run up against the hardest proposition he ever did in his life. Milwaukee is hard place to play and the Connecticut players who have been there can vouch for that fact Prentiss has cost enough in postage stamps al ready to pay months salary to a good man and if he is not coming here and at once let him have the law right from the shoulder. He has been fool ed with long enough and the public are getting very tired about this wander ing pitcher with an alias.
 The people up in Concord are so worked up over base ball that crowd at the ball park insisted on a game the other day when there were several inches of water in places in the out field. Haverhill was the opposing team, and Manager Driscoll objected to play under such conditions, but the crowd wanted q game and Mana ger Carney had to satisfy them. Car ney told Driscoll he must play, and the latter immediately hunted up several pairs of rubber boots for his men Nick Wise suffered more than the other players. While chasing a ball he pitched head foremost into a little pond of water, and Manager Driscoll called for spade; but Wise came un quickly and the crowd expressed it's sympathy by laughing conyulsively.

Early Opening.

The earliest opening Of navigation
on the Great Lakes since the Straits
of Mackinaw became factor in the
commerce Of the country seems to be
at hand A resumption of business
by April on all the upper lakes is
now confidently predicted by vessel
owners. and p: operations to get the
Ships out a fortnight earlier than was
anticipated are being rushed.
From all points where ice blocks
the way to vessels reports indicate
less of that article than ever before
at the corresponding period OF the
year. The absence of severe cold
after the first month of winter pre-
vented the formation of the vast
fields of thick ice which generally
stop navigation until the middle of
April. There are but sixteen inches
of ice III the Straits. and even less
than that III Mud Lake, the last place
in the 500 passage to thaw out. AT
Sault Ste. Marie the channel Is open
and the ferries are being put in com.
mission. A well-informed cores
ponoent at the 500 predicts that by
April l tile river will be entirely
open.

Return From Africa.

Dan Mcdonald of this city, who
went to Africa q year ago returned
Tuesday in company with Ira Odgers
of Soudan. In speaking with a Du-
luth Tribune representative, Mr.. Nc
Donald said:
Il feel very well satisfied with my
self to have returned alive. 1t is al
most as much as a mans life is worth
to go to that country. / had numer-
Gus attacks of malarial fever, and /
am glad that | left there in time.
Not more than one-third of the men
who go to the Gold Coast are in con
diti0n for work at any one time. The
black water fever is usually fatal.
John TanZic was sick but a few days.
His parents reside at Soudan.
THE wages are attractive on the
Gold Coast. They pay $3.50 to 5000 a
month and all expenses, but man
takes many chances. The country is
only in its infancy.

there will one day be extensive"

A Good Thing.

Many of the people of Minnesota
think the recent special session a
good thing and the. money spent well
invested. Among those who think
so is j. Adam Bede. who spoke to a
Duluth reporter as follows:
You can't always turn your money
right away" said Mr.. Bede. "Some-
times your best investment seems to
be the most unpromising for some
time after it is made. 1t seems to
me that it is just SO with this special
session, Tt was called to consider
wholesale changes in the tax laws.
It was found when the legislature got
UP against the extensive changes sug-
gested that it was too large propo-
lsition to be acted upon without fur

Weekly Papers the Best.

t"Grandpa" Pease, editor of the
Anoka Union and one of the oldest
newspaper publishers in the north
west, at the recent meeting Of the
Editorial Association read an inter-
esting paper on the Comparative
Worth of Advertising in the Daily
and Weekly Field" He said in part:
''It is manifestly proper that /
should claim with no hesitation at
the beginning that the weekly paper
is more valuable as an advertising
medium than daily, because 1 have
watched results most carefully, eX-
tending over period of nearly thir-
ty-six years. The weekly is the paper
of the family and is read by every
member critically, advertisements
and all.s The daily paper is but for
The day, is cast aside and then for
gotten. Travel anywhere. and many
passengers start out with a daily in
their hands. Watch its perusal. A
glance here and a glance there, then
discarded, and the porter or brake
man soon pick it up to get it out of
the way. / honestly believe that the
weekly paper is more closely read
than any other publication that goes
to the home. and being so closely
read, the advertisements come in for
their share of attention, and it is
reasonable to claim better results for
the cost is obtained by the advertiser.
The weekly is preserved in nearly
every home, and in my own town l
know of many families who have kept
file of the local paper for years, and
consider it one Of their home trea-

ther consideration and compromise OF

ther consideration and compromise Of
the radical views of the various Sec
tions OF the state. The best legisla-
tion is usually the result of comprom-
Use, because it is stripped of its radi-
cal. and often unwise, features.
Taxation is big subject. 1t re-
quires deliberate thought and plenty
of discussion. Radical changes in
laws made suddenly are often unwise
and frequently unjust. Such import
ant changes should be discussed thor
oughly by all the people interested.
This special session, / believe, will be
the cause Of the people giving it more
thought during the next year than
any proposed legislation has received
before, The fight in the legislature
has awakened the people of the whole
state to the Importance of the pro-
posed changes They will think
them over, talk them over, and when
their representatives come back to
ST. Paul next winter To the regular
session, they will be in an enlighten-
ed frame of mind and more ready to
strike d happy medium between the
outside courses. / am inclined to be-
lieve that if the tax matters had gone
over until the regular session, with
out consideration this winter, tile
MATTER would not have been gener-
ally Investigated or given general
thorough attention. This extra ses-
sion will have that effect, and for this
reason / believe it has been money

school Annortionment.

The amount of the state school APP
portiOnment has been made public
and it is shown that Ely is entitled
to S778.70, or $3.50 each for an enroll
ment of 500. Last year the appor-
tionment was $1.25 per capita. Du-
luth with an enrolment of 1922 will
receive $12,768.60 Virginia receives
81. $40. so on 1885. Tower and Soudan
will receive S842 40 on 648. The Vir-
ginia district includes that city and

Ore Output.

The! general expectation is that
about "A ,000. 900 tons of iron ore will
he taken from the mines around Lake
Superior this year, says the Duluth
Herald. Minnesota will furnish
about IA 1000, 900 tons of this amount,
and the Mesaba range will produce at
least six-sevenths of it or $4,000. 900
tons. This will be the tenth year Of
the operation of the Mesaba as a
mining district. and it is little less
than marvellous that the district
should have sprung to such an enor-
nous production in so short Il time.
1t is understood that of the 24,000,-
900 tons which will be mined about
IA 100000 tons has been covered by
vessel tonnage, including the ships
owned and operated by mining syndi-
Gates.
The Michigan and Wisconsin rang
es are expected to show little change
in their outputs. The Marquette
range, which has been declining for a
couple of years, may slow some in
crease, and the Gogebic will also in
crease somewhat.
Ii is anticipated that there will be
five mines on the Mesaba range that
will produce 100000 tons or more.
This is record that no other mining
district can show.
The United States Steel corpora
tion will mine between 100000 and
5000, 900 tons of Bessemer ore on the
Mesaoa range, about 300, 900 tons on
the Vermllion range, and large ton
nageon the Marquette range. as we'll
as considerable on the Menominee
range. OF its Mesaba total not one
ton Is for sale, although some has
been sold on longtime contracts. All
OF the ore that will be mined, it is
stated, will be demanded by the fur
naces of constituent steelmaking
companies. Not much of the steel
corporations Bessemer ores outside
of This will be for sale, and the fur
llaces that must buy ore will probab-
ly have to rely largely on independent
mines.
The Northern Pacific railroad,
which owns large acreage of land
on the Mesaba, has withdrawn all of
its property from sale or lease. 1t is
believed that all Of these lands will
ultimately be turned over, TO the
James j. Hill interests for lease or
.trafise on royalty basis. 1t is sup
posed that some of them contain iron.
The lands were originally made over
to the ST. Paul & Duluth road as part
of its state land grant and passed to
the Northern Pacific road as part of
the St. Paul & Duluth property.

O'Hara Indicted.

William O'Hara the marshal of
Biwabik has been indicted by the
grand jury for malfeasance in Office.
He was indicted on three counts.
Two of the charges is that he has
been trying to duplicate his bills for
bringing prisoners from Biwabik to
the county Jail at Duluth. The third
is that he has charged for the trip of
one prisoner that was never delivered
at the county jail. 1t is claimed that
in regard to this third Indictment
the prisoner escaped at Two Harbors
and that it cost $16.25 to gethim that
far.

Origin of 'sWatered Stock"

The expression ''watered stock,
which describes so well the expansion
of the stock of a company beyond the
value of the property, originated, it is
said, in connection with Daniel Drew
who was once the wealthiest and most
unique manipulation in Wall street
Drew had been a drover in his younger
days, and it was said of him that be-
fore selling his cattle in the market he
would first give them large quantities
OF salt to make them thirsty and then
provide them With all the water they
could drink. In this way their weight
was greatly increased, and the pur-
chaser was buying ''watered stock -
