Is popular impression that the Stand

competitors and people seemed to
think in st. Paul that the Bartles Oil
company was connected with the
Standard Oil company when they first
commenced business. but the Standard
Oil company have openly fought us
hard, and the Bartles Oil company
nave been so aggressive, sometimes
reducing their price when the Stand
ard advanced theirs and visa versa,
that the people there now know that
they are in no way connected.

are thirty-eight independent refineries
located in Pennsylvania and about
twelve in Ohio. These refineries all

teams and the first home games of
the season will be played at the old
ball grounds.
Question of Name.
The question Of an appropriate
name for the local team is being dis
cussed, many favoring the name

the suits this year are of a brown
color. The old name 1.-The Tigers"

The team should play ball all of the
time under his leadership. Manager
Mcneil will be much in evidence and
will coach the boys, his world of

perience making him a most valuable
man to the team. He is very enthus-

-Four O'Clock Games.
There is strong feeling fayoring
the calling of the games. at 4 O'Clock
instead of at $3.50 and in good reason.
Many of the office men, clerks, print
ers and others do not get out of
work until that time and they are
among the most enthusiastic fans. 1t

be largely increased If the games

BY mutual agreement, Leach has
been traded to the Winnipeg team for

awarded to Duluth and will not be

Public Meeting Called.

The board of education has called
a mass meeting of the citizens and tax
payers of the city, especially the lat
ter, for Tuesday night of next week
for the purpose of considering the
question Of whether or not the books
of the board shall be audited. The
board is desirous of having repre-
sentative gathering of the tax payers
who would have to bear the burden
Of the cost and vote will be taken as
to the action in the matter. The board
will be governed by the action of the
meeting. 1t had been thought at first
that the board would act upon It's own
initiative, but there were SO many pro-
tests from the heavy tax payers who
claimed that they had already been
compelled to pay enough to learn
nothing, and that the cost of the audit
ing of the school board books should
not be forced upon them.

GONYEA GOT A
FRIGHT
Floors Fall Out Of Jail and Janitor
Thinks the Building Has Been Dyna.
mited-Sheriff Ready to Meet Emer.
gency With Winchester.

Sheriff Gonyea of Crookston had an
experience the other night which he
does not care to repeat AS it was,
he took on several years of age in a
rev minutes. Some excavations were
being made under the new wing of the
county Jail for electric purposes. and
the workmen had unknowingly un
dermined the foundation of a steel
pillar which supported the floor above
and to which the steel Orders were
attached. To this was attached an
other pillar which supported the cell
ing above, so that one entire floor and
one cement ceiling was supported by
the foundation undermined. During
the early night the foundation gave
away and the entire floor and ceiling
above fell with deafening crash. The
janitOr Of the building at once sent a
hurried call for the sheriff and stated
that the Jail had been dynamited. The
sheriff called to his son to guard the
rear while he jumped into his clothes
and with Winchester in hand prepared
for the worst. Clouds of dust were
pouring from the building and the
1janitor declared that the explosion
was almost equal to the recent earth
quake. as he could see through the
walls. Finally the officers ventured
into the wrecked building and found
the floor and ceiling piled in the ex-
cavation. while the iron Orders had
been pulled from the walls and twisted
into fantastic shapes. There were no
prisoners in the part of the building
wrecked. as the cells had not yet been
placed in position. In fact it was not
intended to place them in position un
til they were needed. That there
were no dangerous prisoners in tn,
Jail was not thought of until after the
excitement was passed,
