From the Leavenworth Times: The
Leavenworth team Is now in the pre-
dicament of carrying five pitchers, two
shortstops (providing Pennington re-
turns) and two third basemen with the
possibility that none viii be released
tia man, will first have to show what
he can do on third and 1t will then also
have to be decided which of the five
pitchers is to be sold. In addition three
catchers have been carried all this time
owing to the injuring of Corbin and
Mcdowell in the first game at Webb
City and either Kern or Mcdowell viii
have to GO The work of Kern behind
the stick has not been particularly i'm

and it is now claimed that he is not a
catcher, but an outf1elder, who IS, how
ever, able to catch.
President Baker of Joplin, has offer
ed Springfield $500 for Third Baseman
Gus Hetling. Smiling John almost re-
garded the offer as an insult.

HIGH SCHOOL
ATHLETES
Track Team Which is to Compete at
State Field Meet Here on May IS and
10 Begins Work.. A. Fawcett
Coaching the Men.

The members of the high school
track team are hard at work in prep
aration for the state field meet to be
held in this city, on May 1s and 10,
under the auspices of the State uni
versity
Last year the Park River high school
captured the prize banner and the
locals are now bending every energy
to win back the emblem. An abund-
ance of material is at hand, according
to Coach Fawcett, and this is espec-
tally true in the distance runs. Many
of the candidates have not as yet been
tried but will be worked in a day or
two. An inter-class meet will in all
probability be arranged for the coming
Saturday at Athletic park and as the
classes are very evenly divided, the
contests will likely be very close.
In the weights events Duggan, Rod
dy and Filteau constitute the back
bone. The combination should prove
hard one to beat. The two Dug
gans, Van Alstine and Lowell have
been showing up rather we'll in the
vaulting and jumping events.
The team is rather handicapped
through the absence of a really first
class Splinter and the efforts of the
coach Is now directed toward strength
ening this weak spot. Woods, Ryan,
Lowell, Kennedy and O'Reilly are al
most the only ones to be relied upon
In the distance runs, although some of
the new arrivals at school are push
ing them close and may get places.

first two and their sister cruisers are
good for about twenty eEo knots, but
the Ernest Renan and one other cruis-
err have developed twenty three. Only
two classes of cruisers belonging to
the American navy exceed in size the
Milwaukee, One Is represented by Adj
miral Brownson's flagship, and will
include six vessels when the South
Dakota is finished. The other en-
braces the Tennessee, now practically
ready for service, and the unfinished
Washington and Montana. The West
Virginia equals In size the largest
French cruisers, and mounts slightly
heavier guns. She carries four having
calibre OF eight inches The Ten
nessee, like the West Virginia, is quail
flied to attain speed of only twenty
twos knots, but she displaces fully a
thousand tons more, and she carries
four 10-inch guns. In fact, she typifies
the modern tendency to make the
cruiser almost as powerful as the bat
tleship. 1t will probably not be long
before France adopts similar policy,
Ii, indeed, she has not already done SO
in intention. Both republics are show
ing a progressive spirit in naval con-
struction. and the end is not yet.
Chicago and the Divorce Ruling.
When it was announced that the
United States supreme court had
found weak spot in divorces granted
while the defendants resided outside
the state where suit was brought and
to whom notice was given only
through publication, it was generally
believed that this discovery would
greatly lessen the number OF such di-
vorces. Probably this will be the re-
suit in the long run. But in Chicago,
where a great many divorces are
granted, the applicants for legal sep
aration are not yet deeply impressed
by the possibilities involved in the
new ruling. Saturday Is the regular
divorce day in Chicago, and last Satur-
day there was big grist of cases
ready for trial. In one court the
judge found dozen or NOR. Eases in
which defendants weie out of the
state and notice had been given by
publication. The judge was disposed
to be cautious He asked each COM
planning witness if he or she under
stood that under the recent decision
decree granted might not be consid-
cred legal in case of removal to an
other state. In each case the COM
plainant was familiar with the new
situation and anxious to proceed with
the trial. The court proceeded to call
the witnesses, and the divorce machin-
cry worked as smoothly as before the
supreme court applied brake. 1t
will take time to check the momentum
of divorce courts.-Hartford Courant.

NAME FOR AMUSEMENT
LANE At THE FAIR.

" The question of a name for the
amusement lane at the state fair to
be held in Fargo July % to % Is still
undecided. Some time ago the state
fair officials announced that the name
would be submitted to vote of the
people of North Dakota. Any person in
the state was to have been permitted
to cast ballot in favor of any name,
and the only requirement was that
the voter accompany his ballot with a
50-cent piece.
A number of votes have been re-
ceived and are now on file. The names
suggested are many and some of them
very good. However, the fair officials
want more votes, and 1t is probable
that the matter will not be decided
one way or another until more votes
are received.
In return for the money which voters
send will be given the correspond
ing value in tickets to the fair.
A cash prize of $40 will be awarded
the suggestor of the name finally
chosen. Some of the suggestions are
as follows:
Macaroni Way.
Teddie's Ranch.
The Corrall
The Jungles.
Gopher Run.
Flickertail Promenade.
Round Up.
Kiute Gulch.
Buffalo Wallow.
The Furrow

NEW WAY TO HATCH CHICKENS.
Steam Radiator Made to Act as Mother
to Valuable Eggs.


Robert Kelly of West Neck, Long
Island, has found a new way to hatch
chickens. A hen to whom Kelly had
intrusted some very valuable eggs,
after sitting upon them for ten days,
tired of her job and turned a cold
wing upon her nest.
Kelly was at his wits end. The eggs
must be covered within half an hour
or they would spoil. He rang for the
gardener and consulted with him. The
result was the placing of the eggs in
large flower pot, half Embedding
them in the dirt, and then setting the
pot upon steam radiator. Two
weeks later, or three days after time,
the eggs began to crack, a head APP
peared, and then another, and the in
cubation was complete

thousand tons, developed a speed Of
from twenty-one to twenty-five knots
on their trial trips, and mount. two

Rigid Ordinance Regarding Refuse
Grand Forks is experiencing the
regular spring. cleanup fever, and.
goaded on by the efforts Of Chief Lowe
and assistants, the city In general ap-
pearance is undergoing rapid change
for the better. A regular procession
of rubbish wagons can be- seen wend-
Ing its way toward the dumping
grounds. Other years the people have
been content with hauling the refuse
to some unused portion of the city,
but this year the authorities are exer-
cising the utmost vigilance in this
matter and have posted signs to the
effect that any and all persons caught
in the act of unloading rubbish in any
other places than the regular grounds
maintained for the purpose, will be ar
rested and severe fine imposed.
Another matter which has been
causing great deal of trouble of late
is the matter of erecting fences in
front of yards to keep the people, who
persist in taking shortcuts, from maxi
ing pathways and thus spelling the
good appearance of the grassy lawns
for which Grand Forks is noted. The
beautiful terraces and berms in many
portions of the city were ruined last
year, this being especially true of the
corner lots. The very ones oftentimes
that give the most trouble in this re-
spect are those who would not think
of making a path across their own
lawn or think of permitting others to
do so. In several places last year the
street department erected barriers to
check the practice, but to no avail
the barriers were removed and thrown
aside as SO much more rubbish.
From now on the authorities intend
to keep watchful eye and all Offend
ers will be dealt with to the letter of
the law. Besides cleaning up his yard
1t is the duty of every citizen to put
forth his best efforts for the beautify-

Little Red.Headed Funston.


When diminutive, stub-nosed Col.
Funston brought the goth Kansas regi-
ment to the Presidio on its way to the
Philippines the San Francisco people
poked good-natured fun at the "coun-
try jakes" and their colonel.
Last week these same pesple were
very glad the doughty Funston was
on the ground.
The red-headed Kansas midget made
good with his 18th Kansas in the east
and won a brigadier generalship.
Those who envied him called him spec
stacular and attributed his promotion
to "bull luck" But how could the
gallant Funston help it if the cor
respondents persisted in picturing
him In the act of swimming the Bag
Bag river with a rope in his teeth. At
their best the correspondents were
only slightly exaggerating the real
Funston.
Because down beneath his little
swagger the Napoleonic general has
the grit of bulldog and plenty of
shrewdness and calm judgment He
has proven that ever since he went
down lone-handed to help the Cuban
insurgents.
Last week little Funston faced the
most trying situation of his life. Fully
100000 people were homeless, disor-
ganized, many of them distracted.
Thieves preyed. Harpies attacked
dead bodies. The situation required
more than courage. Poise, keenness,
vigor were needed.
When Funston ordered the soldiers
to shoot the hooters on sight and to
compel idle and unwilling men to
work at the point of the bayonet. he
took great risk. Would the war de-
partment support him? He rose to the
emergency, shut down the lid of the
hell that was beginning to rage, and
sat upon it.
No West Point man would have
dared such thing without consulting
Washington. That is where the volun-
teer officer has the advantage-if, like
Funston, he has the head to use it.
They have put another officer over
little Funston-a grave and grizzled
regular. But history can never rob the
red-headed little brigadier of the su-
preme hour when he saved San Fran
cisco from itself-St. Paul Daily News.
