Death Of Or. sllss q. clark In Denver
Coin


Dispatches to the Boston papers re-
corded the death in Denver, Colo Sept.
q of DR.. Silas b. Clark, 20, of Burlington.
The Boston Globe said under Denver
headline Sept. 2S! "IIe was n veteran of
the Sth Connecticut He left a sick bed
in the Mary Fletcher hospital to attend
the G.. A. r. encampment, and arrived
here with n big basket of lunch and no
money. On the day of the parade he was
taken from the station in a wheelchair
and n place was found for him that he
might see the parade. After 1t had passed
he was removed with his lunch basket to
the County hospital, where he recovered
within a week. He did not feel equal to
the trip back home and asked that he
might be allowed to work about the hospi-
tai He was permitted to do chores in
the laboratory and endeared himself to all
by his pleasant disposition. Yesterday he
asked permission to leave his work for a
time, and within few minutes was found
dead on his cot"
An article in n Burlington paper said:
"Dr. Clark was up to the time he left Bur-
lington to attend the G.. A. II. convention
at Denver, n patient at the Mary Fletcher
hospital. He had been there several years
and when able to do so had worked about
the grounds, although never as paid
employe. He had in various ways earned
about $50 and with this he started for
ILenver. officials at the hospital and
other friends in the city tried to dissuade
him from going, but were unable to do so.
The Burlington paper said he collapsed
after the parade and quoted him as say
ing: II saw the boys again and am ready
to die"
Dr. Clark was a son Of DR.. Charles and
| Hannah Clark and was a native of this
town. His father was a physician many
years and had a large practice. DR.. Clark
was proprietor of a drug store here
which was burned during the disastrous
fire of a number of years ago. He then
went to Burlington and he never return
ed from that city to Townshend.

that trunks had been opened, dishes
smashed and other damage caused. If
the intruder comes forward to settle Mr.,

MANCHESTER WINS
FROM THE CADETS
College League Season Opens
With Victory for the
Locals

The first game Of the college league
series was played on the Manchester
grounds yesterday afternoon, when
Manchester defeated Shattuck by a score
Of to 5.
The game was slow considering the
standing of the teams in the college
league, and would have excited little en-
thusiasm but for the possibility of a tie
score
Shattuck started of with two runs in
the first inning. but Manchester evened
II up in the second. and when Chatterdon
took the box at the beginning of the fourth
the home team had settled down to steady
ball
Chatterdon struck out three men in sue
cession in the fourth inning and in the
last half brought in a score on a hit by
Conner. Capt. Mitt played fast ball at the
receiving end and made the neateSt catch
OF the game in the third inning. when he
jumped the bench for a foul fly. The
Manchester men repeatedly landed on Will
kinson's curves for safe hits. Olsen in
the second brought in two runs on a fly
over right field.
The military boys were strong on sup
port and could they have connected with
ChatterdOn's spit ball would have car
ried home a victory.
The Manchester team will play Duluth
at Lexington park this afternoon and will
play the second game of the college series
with Hamliup Saturday Sore

Gramaphone Sounds Far

Special Foreign Service
LONDON, April 19.-The Hon. c. A.
Parsons, of turbine fame, has invented
a gramophone that can be heard under
favorable weather conditions at dis
lance of three miles. The instrument
which has been exhibited privately at
MetXler hall, is named the auxetphone,
and is worked by means of compressed
air. This is pumped in by a small en-
CINE at a pressure which can be adj
justed up to over eight pounds through
a small valve, which takes the place of
the ordinary diaphragm, into the trum
pet. The valve consists of a number of
small slots covered with a fine comb,
not unlike a mouth organ, and the
vibration of the comb produces the
sounds.

Special to The Globe
LOUISVILLE, KY, April 19.-Louisville
won the opening game of the season to-
day from st. Paul in rather easy style
by the score of 10 to 8. The Saints used
three pitchers in the game and all of them
We're hit hard by the colonies. Corbett
started to pitch for the champions. but
lasted only five innings. He had the Col
onels shut out until the fourth inning
and up to that time the local batters could
do nothing with him, but they found his
delivery IN the fourth and fifth innings
ana made seven runs. which was more
than enough to win the game. Slagle
succeeded Corbett on the slab but did not
snow up well. and CriStall was substituted.
The latter has always been a hard prop
osition for the Louisville batters and when
he went into the box the Colonies run
getting was over.

The most sensational play of the game
took place in the fourth inning, and is
discoura ging the St Paul team With
three st. Paul men on bases and nobody
out Kelley. the next batter, sent a short
fly back of second base. Murphy, the
Colonies center fielder, was playing back
for Kelley, but seeing the ball was out

great run for 1t and caught the ball
at his shoe tops. The st. Paul runners
thought the drive went safe and Murphy
threw the ball to Kenna, who relayed
the ball to third base and Montgomery
threw to first and completed a triple play.
Geier Zalusky and Hemphill put up the
best game for, the, Saints. especially. the
former, who played a brilliant game both
at the bat and in the field.
The largest crowd that ever attended
an opening game in Louisville since the
American association was organized greet
ed the Colonies and Saints today. There
was no street parade, but instead a local
band rendered the band concert at the
park before and during the game. Sew
eral of the players received flowers and
other tokens from their friends. Mayor
Charles F. Granger made a brief address
and inaugurated the season by tossing the
first ball over the plate.
George Ferguson will pitch against
t Charley Ferguson today. The St Paul

allowed there the Saints will play at Day

the game that he not discouraged

get a line team. Score:

GET But ONE JUROR
FOR KOCH TRIAL
Continued From First Page

The extreme care being taken in the
selection of the jury has brought out
one fact, and that is that the farmers
are doing more reading than they used
to- Nearly everyone examined takes
one of the Mankato dailies and Twin
City daily or weekly papers, besides
one or more farm papers. This may be
due to the establishment of the rural
routes which cover Blue Earth county.
