SOME REAL NOVELTIES
The Twin City Amusement Parks
G. A. R. Week Attractions

Those who visit during the &. A. r..
national enCampment and want to see
something worth the while can find it
at Wonderland, the big Twin City
amusement park, which has over fifty
amusement features in its "ten acres
of fun for ten cents"
Aside from shooting the chutes,
riding on scenic railway, taking the
third degree, ETC., there are some real
novelties. One of these is the infant
incubator institute, where by means
OF an artificial mother the lives of
fully eighty-five per cent of imma-
turely born babies that otherwise must
die are saved. Some OF these babies
weigh but two pounds when received,
and are nursed to full development
and health.
Then there is the Johnstown Flood,
realistic reproduction in miniature
of that awful disaster, which has been
leading feature at several worlds
fairs. The knabenshue air ship gives
daily flights at the park, and the
great centrifugal cycle sensation,
"Globing the Globe" is another spec
ial attraction.

Saturday night. Miss Mcnamara was

A lady visiting in Brookings says
she wishes to compliment the citizens
for keeping their yards and buildings
looking so neat and clean, but says
the city authorities ought to keep the
grass and weeds cut down along the
borders of the streets. Would it not
he good plan to enforce the ordi-
nance making it compulsory for all
property owners to keep the grass and
weeds cut or else tax them with the
expense? There are number OF un-
slightly places about town that need
looking alter.
Mrs. w. IL. Conklin, who has been
seriously i'll for some time was finally
compelled to undergo an operation for
ventral hernia complicated by appen-
dicitis. The operations were performed
Thursday and although the task was
very delicate one and necessarily
long the patient rallied and is getting
along nicely. Mr.. Conklin informs
this paper that his wife has been oper-
ated upon six different times and that
this was the most difficult OF any she
has had. He cannot fully express his
appreciation OF the services rendered
by the surgeons in charge, but says:
Tell the people there is no need OF
going away from Bookings to receive
the best possible treatment. We have
splendid physicians and surgeons right
here at our doors. Just as able as can
be found anywhere"

BROOKINGS REDS WIN
dnds Land Team Defeated Three
Out of Four

After the overwhelming defeat of
the Lunds base ball aggregation OF
Minneapolis by the Brookings Reds
in their first series the Lunds
strengthened their lineup and had
faith that they would be able to
redeem themselves, but this fond hope
went glimmering as they only cap
tured one game out Of the four.
The teams first played at Renville,
MINI. The Reds had made a long
jump from Lennox where they defeated
the home team to the tune of % to /.
The Lunds won the first game by an
error with a score Of to l with Erick-
son in the box. The next day with
Nelson in the pitchers box the Reds
gave them drubbing OF to l. On
Saturday at st. Paul the Reds again
were winners with score OF 3 to l,
Burwill in the box. Sundays game
was a scorcher for the land agents the
Reds winning by score to l.
Erickson pitched this game.
In the two series the Reds have won
10 games, tied one game and lost one.
This, combined with the victories they
have won from all other independent
teams, leaves the Reds the champions
among the independents OF Iowa,
Minnesota, North and South Dakota
and it is very doubtful if their equal
will ever be seen in the northwest.
The Minneapolis Journal and Tri-
bune speak highly Of Burwell, Erick-
son and Nelson and the Journal says
Burwell has been engaged by the
Philadelphia Nationals.

WINS HIS OWN GAME
Erickson Pitches an Almost Perfect
Game at Minneapolis

The Minneapolis Journals report of
the last game played by the Bookings
Reds with the Lunds states that Erick-
son, the big pitcher for the Bookings
team, won his own game against the
Lund Lands yesterday afternoon at
Minnehaha by making a single in the
second, scoring two men and hitting
out three Dagger in the ninth with
three men on bases.
The game was fast affair and some
star plays were pulled off. Hallstrom,
left fielder for the Lunds, was the star
of the game, making two almost inn
possible catches of long flies, hitting
out a neat two-bagger and stealing
three bases, one OF these being home.
Billy HOke covered his position in
fine style and made a hit with the
crowd by his fast work on bases.
Sammy kinkle was injured in the
eighth inning and could not continue
catching. He was replaced by his
brother Ed, who had been playing
first.
4 Ht game was dIllOst Tree from err
rors, each side making but one. Jones
of the Brookings team, dropped a
throw from Hille, which was little
wild, and Rees OF the Lunds missed a
mean one at third. Hallstrom missed
a fly after long run, but an error
was not marked against him, as the
catch was impossible. The score:
