Coach Merrill Orders High School
Football Players Out for
Practice Monday.

Coach Merrill Of the Central high school
football team has called his men to meet
for practice Monday at the Y. M. G. A.
building. AL the men are expected to
report for the first days work. Central
expects to have strong team this year.

tain Whitman Thayer, half back; Wilbur
Thayer, full back; Morse, guard; Hunter,
half back; Mccarthy, center; Caster, end;
and Yerxa, quarter. The substitutes are
Martin, Butler, Todd, Aich, Gardiner,
Hawley, McMullen, Greer and Lavavea.
The new men who are expected to try for
Smith, Larrabee, Todd, Church, Farnham,
Chestnut, Berg and Capron.
Merrill will have to develop a guard,
two tackles, an end and possibly q half
back. for it is not yet certain whether
Whitman Thayer, who was so seriously
injured last year. will be able to play.
Out Of the bunch Of substitutes and new
material, however, there should be no diff
f1culty in finding half dozen good men.

The Ishpeming school team has for the
past few years, with the exception Of one
season, when Escanaba was victorious,
won both the upper peninsula and state
honors, but this season the championship,
of northern Michigan at least, is much in
doubt. Ishpeming has lost its best men
by graduation and its team this season
will be much lighter than usual. The
other teams also are unknown factors
this year, altho it Is believed that both
Escanaba and Menominee will be in the
foremost rank

Many Minneapolis people, travelling in

that they have not seen the Yellowstone
National Park. Nothing in the world will
compare with the beauty and grandeur of
its scenery. The Northern Pacific has

Brainerd, Mimi, Aug. 21.-It Is rumored
that the Minnesota & International will
be turned over to the Northern Pacific
Oct. 1, and after that date the Minnesota
& International will cease to be operated
as an Independent line.
The Northern Pacific has acquired the
80 per cent Of the stock owned in Mime
apolis, which has been standing in the
way for some time. In case the transfer
Is made the general offices Of the Mime
sofa & international here will be abel-
ished.
It is reported that Sept. Brainerd will
get another train from st. Paul, a night
service. This will be one of the best
moves that the Northern Pacific has made
for some time. The report goes that the
company will put on thru passenger
train from st. Paul to Winnipeg.

BrItons Lose Their Nerve

London, Aug. 21.-Rain last night
spoiled the intended outdoor fireworks
display indicating the progress Of the
yacht race. Everywhere disappointment
is expressed that the Shamrock III. did
not make better showing in the drift
ing. There has been no betting here on
the result, and 1t Is safe to say that it
is quite impossible now to find money
on the challenger.

LOOKUP ALLEY ROUGH
Paving There Has Got Into Bad State
Promised Repairs De.

Lookup alley, which has been an eye
sore to visitors to the central police sta
ton, is now in an almost impossible con-
dition. The old block paving, which was
put in many years ago, is almost worn
out and is full of deep holes. These make
it impossible for the patrol wagon to pass
thru the alley faster than at a slow walk.
At various times the council committee
on streets and alleys has promised to have
the alley paved, but each year the matter
is put off.

there is more interest being taken this year

the fact that the chickens were never more

on matters of this kind states that the coveys
