To the Dedication Site.

At the close of the exercises in the
corn palace the great crowd OF people
%thronged into the street preparatory
for the march to the University.
The procession was under the direc-
ton OF L. c. Burnes as marshall and
it was headed by the Mitchell band
which played inspiring music nearly
all the way over. In the procession
was the faculty, students. citizens,
visitors on foot, and the speakers
and other citizens i'm carriages, all
which extended at least tive blocks
IN length. Arriving at Century Me
mortal Hall the dedicatory party took
ats position on the broad porch and
the great crowd stood in front OF the
building and listened intently to the
exercises which followed,
Bishop Joyce haG charge OF the
services and opened them by reading
a selection from the discipline OF the
Methodist church. The audience

read, Bishop Joyce leading and the
presiding elders and Bishop Berry
joining. Then was sung that grand
old hymn, "Rock OF Ages"
Dr w. L. Graham. vice president
of the college, in a brief speech pre-
Sented the building, IN behalf OF the
board OF trustees, to Bishop Joyce
for dedication. Bishop Joyce then
said:
"Dearly Beloved: 1t is meet and
right, as we learn from the holy
scriptures, that houses erected for
the purposes of christian education
should be especially set apart for
such uses. For such a dedication we
are now assembled. With gratitude,
therefore, to Almighty God, who
has signally blessed His servants in
their holy enterprises in erecting
Memorial Hall, we dedicate it to His
service, for the training OF young
peopl e in ali christian culture, ac-
cording to the Discipline and usages
OF the Methodist church. And, as
the dedication OF the temple is vain
without the solemn conservation OF
the worshippers also, i now call up
on you all to dedicate yourselves anew
to the service Of God. To Him let
our souls be dedicated. that they
may be renewed after the image of
Christ. 10 Him let our bodies be
dedicated. that they may be fit tenn
pies for the indwelling OF the Holy
Ghost. To Him may our labors and
business be dedicated, that their
fruit may tend to glory of His great
name. and to the advancement OF
His kingdom. And that He may
%graciously accept this solemn act"
The bishop made a most fervent
and appealing prayer for the future
welfare Of the institution and for
the conservation of the officials who
will be connected with it in what
ever capacity.
President Nicholson read a selec-
ton from the Discipline, and the
Doxology was sung by the audience.
The services was then brought to a
close by Rev. n. S. Wilkinson pro-

the past eighteen months has spread
among the Metllodists of the state so
that a year ago whsn the educational
convention was held here practically
enough money was pledged to pay

at that time the corner stone was
laid, and since then the building has
been pushed with all possible speed
to get il completed as early as posi-

was a happy day for all connected
with the college, and the dedication
of the building meant another step
in the growth and development of
the institution.

Theis Athletic Club Undertakes to Fur.
nIsh Public Play Ground.
A new baseball park on the East Side is
planned by the Theis Athletic club.
Grounds at Broadway and Central av-
enues have been. put into shape and
scraped. The new park is to be 1875 feet
in length, to have rope coil on the base
lines to separate the players from the
audience, and will have a seating capacity
of 900, 800 seats on either side Of the field.
The clubs financial condition does not
permit of the fitting up of the entire
grounds and park at once. To avoid go
ing into debt the club will erect seats only
at present, and spectators who wish to see
the game in comfort will be charged a.
small fee. By this plan the club hopes to
make enough money to fit up a park equal
to any in the state. The Theis ball team,
which is to use the new park, is one Of
the fastest in the city. J. H. Mitchell,
manager, has a team which he feels con-
fident can finish the season as amateur
champions having four fast pitchers,
among them Frank Mitchell and P.
Theilen.
Sunday the Theis will play the Blue la
bells at Broadway and Central, and May
q will go to Fairbault. Games are
wanted with out Of town teams, Hopkins
and Saltwater preferred.

yet a player uses poor Judgment in

tThe good player is one with
enough judgment and experience to
make such discards either on his own
deal or into his opponents crib, as
will give his opponent no chance to
take advantage of a fixed rule. It is
a fascinating game and I have never

FIELD WORK OF MILLERS HAS

Weak or Strong Points - Followers
of the Game Are Getting Line on
the Players - Coming Games.

Rain prevented a meeting of the
boosters and the millers at Ntcollet
park yesterday afternoon. The teams
meet to-day and tomorrow. Honors
Watkins men will endeavor to get
away with the hog share of the games.
Minneapolis fans have had about
week Of baseball and are beginning to
get line on the team. AS whole,
they are not batting as strongly as the
enthusiasts would desire but as Wat
kins is known to be an excellent
coach the fans look for q betterment
along this line as the season advances.
McNichols has not batted up to ex-
pectations altho his field work Is as
fast as could be desired. Fox has
but has not made a particular impress
sion with the willow. Maloney Is
handling sun field satisfactorily and is
one of the hungry ones with the bat.
Sullivan is doing all that could be
asked in center and is also cloutlng the
bali. Coulter comprises the third Of
the heavy hitting outflelders and Is
keeping his garden in faultless shape.
Weavers catching has only one
fault. He appears to be trif1e re-
luctant to let the ball drift to second
to catch a base stealer when no one
is on the bag. When hi. does let it go
his shots are apt to vary between
high and low It requires accurate
work to drop the ball to the second
bag in such instances and Weaver
either needs little more practice or a
trifle more courage. He is reaching
the ball with the bat but has been I'M
fortunate in placing his offerings.
LaIly could ginger up at first bit
without hurting the team at all. His
hitting is expected to improve. Oyler,
while not a sensational grass burner
at short, is playing a consistent game
and batting we'll. The pitchers are
not yet in form but no one can COM
plain. Two weeks Of hot weather will
tell the story for them. Katoll
lpitched fine game the other day and
his friends say this will be his best
year. Bailey lost his game this week
and only fast fielding saved him from
Ia massacre Munich has been sick
Stimmel and Ford have done satisfac-
tory work. There is no doubt but
that Minneapolis has fairly strong
team. It is not as fast as the fans
would like to see, and Manager Wat
kins has work ahead Of him to sustain
his reputation as a nine builder. That
he is equal to the task no one doubts
Minneapolis wants first division

furnish it if such thing is possible.
