The New Primary Law

| will be tested for the first time next
Tuesday. The loose and rambling man
ner in which delegates have heretofore
been elected has been changed to con-
form to as strict a proceeding as the gen.
eral election of officers. Ten persons be-
longing to q party shall sign q petition
requesting the municipal clerk to have
the m OF men printed on an official
primary ballot. An affidavit is required
stating that the proposed delegate and
all the signers are members Of the party,
and the man named for delegate shall
take an oath that he will accept and act,
if elected.
Official ballots shall be printed for both
the Democratic and Republican party
and next Tuesday all Democratic ballots
must be put into n box and all Repub-
lican ballots in another box. Before a
man can vote next Tuesday at the pri-
mary to elect delegates he shall be reg
istered. He shall call for the party bal
lot he desires to vote, but may erase the
name thereon and vote for whom he
pleases. If he spoils a ballot he may
call for a second or third but no more.
To his name on the registry list is added
D. R. o. P. to designate the party he be-
longs to. If he votes in a Democratic
caucus one year he car not vote in the
Republican caucus the next year. This
insures the nomination of every candi-
date by known party men Of his own
party.
The Boards of Registration and Elec-
tions will sit next Tuesday at their usual
places of holding elections, hold the pri-
mary election and revise the registry list.
The following nominations have been
filed in Penn's Grove: For Democratic
delegates James Diver and Jacob F.
Shoemaker. For Republican delegates,
Jos. D. Whitaker and George Watson.
In Upper PENIS Neck the petitions
have been made for Wilbert F. Sailor to
be the Democratic delegate and John B.
Layton to be the Republican delegate.
In Oldmans James Sweeten and Rich
ard Corson have been proposed as the
Democratic delegates and Edwin E. Som
ers and George r. Pedrick as the Repub-
lican delegates.

An unusually large crowd witnessed the
exciting contest between the local Smoke
less powder team and an aggregation
brought by Howard Stepler, Of Penns-
vile, at the base ball park here last Sat
urday. Tie P~ennsville rooters were up
in force, some in agriculturist garb fresh
from the farm, some from their places Of
business and a great many from the pow
der mills. Harry Gonnerman, OF Phlla-
delphia, Penn's Groves crack twlrier
thinking the weather unfit, did not put
in appearance, but Manager Reeves arose
to the emergency and secured a snapshot
to take him to Wilmington and soon had
Faulkner, OF the Wilmington A. As
staff oyer to do the twirling. Bader, an
other OF Penn's Groves players who has
been doing the receiving, had something
like the enlargement of the Uranium, ex-
pansion OF the chest or something OF the
like and wanted more money, but he got
it, nit. Hartman, who is nov making a
tour with Atlantic City, filed the posi-
ton behind the bat.
Pennsville jumped at the chance to get
Bader, and as he is such a high priced
man they paid him-a dollar. Chase,
Countess and Duffy, of New Castle, Jack
Gruff, of PENIS Grove and the balance
P~ennsville players 90 made up Steps
team.
The contest began at 4 p. m. with the
visitors at the bat. They occasionally
and by mere accident, dropped one to
pitcher and maybe now and then one as
far as short, and in the second crossed
the pan for one. In the fifth by a series
of costly errors, they crossed for 8 more,
and tied the score. The excitement at
this point was intense and the visiting
rooters made good this chance. Stepler
happened to land on one for two bags,
which was the only thing in batting that
is worth mentioning. Penn's Grove land

8 in the first and kept up the hitting but

Tracks to Rise and Fall.


The Pennsylvania and Reading Rail
roads will shortly begin extensive inn
provements to their roads in Camden.
Work will probably start as 0 as the
summer traffic is over.
The Pennsylvania Railroad will have
an army Of men on the preliminary work
of elevating its tracks, which will not be
completed for at least three years. AS
soon as the big operations in New Bruins
wick, Elizabeth Newark and other places
are well under way Chief Engineer Brown
will devote his time to the track eleya-
ton in Camden.
The Reading will start the work Of de-
pressing its tracks at Bulson street about
September 26. Eighteen months will be
occupied in this work.
The Proper Treatment for : sprained
Ankle.
As arule q man will feel well satisfied if
he can hobble around on crutches two or
three weeks after spraiDing his ankle, and
it is usually two or three months before he
has fully recovered. This isan unnecessary
loss of time, for in many cases in which
Chamberlain's Pain Balm has been prompt
ly and freely applied, q complete cure has
been effected in less than q weeks time,
and ID some cases within three days. For

Gibbons is a clever little player, j. 9.

Holmes keeps his optic on the leather.
Just watch him.
We would have had a cinch, even if
Doc had got out.

his base three times.
How many 0 fthe visitors runs were

thought it was getting dark.
stepler let a slow one 90 through his
legs in the first. Great playing Step.
The Pennsvillers tore some awful rents
in the atmosphere feeling for the crooked
e served up by Faulkner.
One player was SO interested in the
game, lie was surprised when the bail
struck his knee, where he should have
had a double.
1t certainly seems strange, every time
Callahan pitches, it's the same old story,
Hes nothing but q boy" He'll be a
man some day.
Stump said-"If we can't beat you we
can lick you."-And the Pennsville cor
respondent to the South ~Jerseyman said
they we're manly players, too.
Faulkner has pitched "A innings for the
A. AS without a run being scored against
him. He wants to go up against the
Pennsville aggregation again, just TO show
them a little trick, he says.
Hevener is the man who did the
Dumping Three hits Of the eleven
isn'tso bad. Hevener is improving with
every game, and what is more, he is &C.
cumulating a large circle of friends.
Faulkner was kind enough to favor
Stump with a dew drop which he had
the good luck to land on for a base hit.
We suppose that this will 80 swell his
head, that the next time he comes to town
it will be hard to distinguish by the dec
orations, whether he is a walking bed Of
roses or the original Badge Fiend.

DERBY ON NATIONS BIRTHDAY.
Driving Club Again Changes Date But
Arranges More Elaborate Program.

Date for the Derby Day celebration of
the Manitowoc Riding and Driving
Club has again been changed and the
event will not be held until July 4.
This is owing to to the unsuitable
weather which has made it impossible
to arrange for and have the animals in
training. The delay will afford oppor-
tunity to arrange more elaborate cele-
bration Of the event and the Club
officers have outlined program that
includes an invitation to the City Coun-
Gil, police and fire department and civic
and fraternal societies Of the city to
participate. An effort will also be
made to secure attendance from She
boygan and other cities and especially
throughout Manitowoc County. J. II.
Keith Is president of the Club and

Successor To Be Named Next Week.

Adolph Rechcygle, member of tho
City Council from the Second ward,
elected at the Spring election, has re-
signed from the Board and will remove
to Milwaukee with his family. A sue.
cessor to the Office will be named by
Mayor Kemper and confirmed by the
Council at the meeting to be held Mon
day evening. The names OF Frank Mil
Ter, DIR. J. V. Miller, Cornelius Madsen
and George w. Kennedy are being

ing to private interests. Mr.. Madsen
has served the city in official capacity
in former years and is well qualified to
assume the position and Mr.. Kennedy
would also prove valuable member Of
the Council.

INSURE IN ONE COMPANY ONLY?
Question as to Insurance Policies That is
of Interest Here.

Many fire insurance policies held by
Manitowoc County and other Wisconsin
people may be void if the claim made
by the defendent to suit in the state
Courts is upheld. The question involves
the right of a policy holder in one COM
pany to secure insurance in another.
The Supreme Court has decided that a
solicitor or agent of a company has nc
right to waive the provisions of the
policy unless the waiver is inserted into
or attached to the policy and the con
tracts of nearly every company Lave a
clause prohibiting the holder from &C.
cepting insurance with other companies.
Should this be upheld by the Courts
many policies would be declared void
The decision in the matter can not affect
life insurance policies, for the reason
that all the provisions of the latter are
made in the home Offices and not by in
dividual agents.
