PLACE OF BEAUTY.

Chicago Paper: The fact that the
Devils Lake North Dakota) Indian
will be thrown open to
settlement is already known through
out the western part Of the United
States and in fact to more or less
extent throughout the whole country.
In some respects the land on the reser-
vation, about to be thrown open to
settlement, is better than the land in
any other part of the state, because
it is bounded and surrounded by the
Sheyenne river on one side and the
great Devils lake on the other. This
has tendency to at all times draw
rain. Devils lake is body of water
some so miles long and 10 miles wide
and is one of the most picturesque
places in the world. All along the
lake is heavy timber on this side as
we'll as on the side of the reservation
and there is also timber along the
river on the south boundary of the
reservation.

BASEBALL.

The Devils Lake club was badly
crippled when Winnipeg arrived
Monday for a series of three games.
Two men were laid up with broken
fingers, and President Kent suspended
First Baseman Cole five days for
knocking down the captain Of the
Fargo team, who struck Cole first.
In small league like ours, where
teams don t carry over.. II men, sus-
pension is serious matter. Presi-
dent Kent Guild have punished Cole
more by fning him $25 or $50 than
he did by laying him off,. In taking
the latter course he punished the
Devils Lake management, instead Of
the player. The fans in this to wn
feel pretty sore over the matter, and
there would be great rejoicing if
Kent would hand in his resignation
and allow someone who wears larg-
er-sized hat to fill the position of pres
ident.
Under the circumstances Devils
Lake didn't expect to win from the
league leaders. In the game Tuesday
the umpire was so rank that the game
was protested, and will undoubtedly
b.. played over.i if there is any justice
to be had at the hands of the board Of
control
Monday the score was II to in
favor of Winnipeg. Tuesday, 6 to 4
and Wednesday, 6 to Sail in favor
Of Winnipeg.
No game yesterday with Crookston
on account of rain.

is located on the State penitentiary farm in

more than likely found its origin in the mind
Of an enemy to the enterprise who would
prefer to see the penitentlary remain IN a
rut, instead Of being selfsustaining institu-
ton.
Under the terms Of the contract entered
into between the State penitentiary board
and the contractor for building and equipping
the sugar mill, the total cost will be $26s,-
600 in round figures, OF this amount the
state paid $4,000 in cash, which was set
aside by the last legislature and $4,000 is

The contract specifically states that the

products of the mill for several years 10
