The game of ball played on the Dick
inson diamond on Sunday between the
locals and Miles City team was a good
one from start to finish. Both teams
played a snappy game and the Of
s to :, in favor Of the locals, was close
enough to make the game interesting
throughout. Both sides played for all
they were worth and when the game
was over there was no ~illfeeling among
the boys. The visitors brought their
own umpire, DR.. Bruning, and the Dick
inson people were perfectly satisfied
with his decisions. He was fair and that
wal all the D%ickinsonites wanted-or
eve want.
The visitors were first to bat, but Da.
Wilson's balls seemed to be a puzzle to
them and the one man who got to first
base o o died there. On the Dlckin-
son side Ronesh was first man up and
the first thing he did was to line out a
thres-bagger, scoring a little later. The
second inning was unproductive to both
sides. The Miles City boys got one run

the locals did things to the visitors and
took three run In the sixth Miles City

and took two scores. There were nc
more scores made by either side, but in
the eighth there was some excitement
when Ronesh batted a ball over the
fence. 1t went very close to the left fou'
line and had it not been for the strong
breeze from the west the batter woulc

The scare in finance and bust
ness has opened the eyes of many
people to the possibility of a sud-
den check in our prosperity, and
to the more or less artificial nature
of the industrial conditions that
have developed in recent years.
1t has become evident that prices
of commodities in this country
are inflated, as were those of
stocks, and that the continuance
of prosperity is menaced by the
fact. Home consumption has
been so large for several years
that the world markets have been
neglected by American business
men and manufacturers. Now
that foreign trade has been again
turned to-, it is found that the high
prices of nearly all classes of
American commodities preclude
their sale outside this country.
People have been astonished to
find that Germany, England and
France are making machinery and
structural iron and dress goods
and a thousand other commodi-
ties and selling them in the worlds
markets at prices far lower than
the American figures. The dis.
eovery has made apparent the
necessity for business moderation.
A period of declining prices of
commodities is a necessity for in
dustrial America. If it comes
gradually and as the result OF
proper conservatism, it will prove
beyond doubt a great industrial
Decentralization.

were hauled to the ball park where the
grand stand and bleachers were filled
and the sides of the field were lined with
spectators. DR.. Bruning was cheered as
he walked upon the field where the Dick.

The doctor had certainly captured the
hearts Of the Dickinson people as an

but superiority over the average anna

A Just ReDr0aCh,

We have always felt that Dickinson
sportsmen ~ were very energetic, but
this year we are brought to realize it
more forcibly than eve before.
Was there not a Gun club organized in
Dickinson a little over a year ago for the
purpose-if | remember the wording OF
the constitutional protecting the game,
by enforcing the game laws and for the
pleasure as we'll as the advancement Of
its members in the art Of wing shooting?
Yes, and rapid has been the strides Of
advancement. In the improvement OF
little, and in the protection of game they
have done absolutely nothing. Such
noble work, the rusults of which are FAR
reaching, a not be commended too
highly. Why, but last Sunday, Aug 9,
a little over three weeks before the open
season, a member of the Dickinson Gun
club-and a man that one would ordln-
arily think of as a law-abiding citizen
was out shooting game.
Is it any wonder, when men-men that
should be particularly interested in the
enforcement of the game laws-go out
three weeks before the open season and
slaughter chickens that are about half
grown, that the farmers follow these
same destructive lines, and do some.
thing that is but little worse-slaughter
hunger-driven grouse that in mid-winter
come about the barns and stacks
in search Of food?
OF course due allowance must be
made, for we know that very often these
men who make a practice of opening the
chicken season, for their own benefit
three weeks before the law does, are
suoh wretched poor shots that they have
to handicap the chickens in some such
manner in order to get what they think
their share. Is there a deputy game
warden in Stark county? Surely if there
is, we ought not to be forced to say, like
the boy to his father about the alligator
"well, pa, if he's alive, why don't he DE-
something to show that he's alive?"

Bottom of a Sea Falling Out.

Scientists tell us that, counting from
the sea level, the lowest body Of water
on the globe is the Caspian sea. For
centuries its surface has been gradu-
ally settling down until now it is eigh-
ty-fve feet lower than that Of its near
neighbor, the Black sea, which also lies
far below the level Of the ear The
common conclusion all along has been
that the Caspian was simply losing it's
waters by evaporation, but recent in
vestigaton shows that this Is not the
case. Soundings made and compared
with records Of soundings made over
100 years ago reveal the astounding
fact that there is even a greater depth
Of water now than then. This leaves
but one hypothesis that would seem at
all tenable-that the bottom Of the sea
is actually sinking. There is much
speculation in scientific circles az to
what will be the final outcome.

Rice Paper Not Made From Rice

Rice Paper Not Made From Rice.
Rice paper is not made from rice nor
from rice stalks, nor has 1t any con-
nectlon whatever with rice. 1t is Of
Chinese manufacture and Is made
from the pith of a certain tree resem-
bling the elder. The pith Is extracted
from the tree in large cylindrical mass
es, and with sharp knives the Chinese
pare off the cylinder till instead Of a
cylindrical form they have a large fiat
sheet. This is pressed and other sheets
added until the required thickness is
secured. The paper is then rudely
sized and Is ready to use. 1t was called
rice paper under the supposition that
when it was first introduced into Eu-
rope it was made from rice stalks, and
the name has never been changed.

Cheese.

Cheeses come under three general
heads, whole milk, skim or sour milk
and whole milk and cream. The ripen.
ing Of cheese, upon which depends its
favor, is due to the action of bacteria,
which are ever present in milk; also in
the rennet which is used in the manu-
facture. Cheese which has been i'm.
properly handled is apt to accumulate
deleterious bacteria. Cheese has great
nutritive value. 1t yields nearly three
times the amount of caloric yielded by
