admitted to Membership in Ma
tiOnQI Association.

Forgetting its quarrel Of years standing one
of the most acrimonious and bitter in base
ball annals, the National Association Of Base
ball Leagues adopted a resolution yesterday
afternoon at its annual meeting at the Fifth
Hotel. admitting the Tri-State League to
membership in the association in Glass B. The
action was in consonance with the action OF
the National Baseball Commission, taken at
Cincinnati on Monday, when it was decided to
recognize the Tri-State League. The commits
sion is the highest court of baseball, and the
parties TO IL are the American League. the Ma
tional League and the Association of Minor
Leagues. The National Commission, in recog-
nizng the outlaw" took cogniZance Of The
fact that it had been the refuge for certain con-
tract jumping big league" players
Incidentally, the agreement arranged in
a friendly manner, but left out of considera-
ton the Atlantic League, which, while seeking
recognition and protection from the National
Association, yet desires to have in its fold
Wilmington and Trenton. which the Tri-State
League claims and which the two organ
izations have clashed
Neither the board nor the association, to which
it reported back, made any attempt yesterday

minor league. 1t seemed to be the general feel
ing, however. that Trenton and Wilmington will
be assigned TO the Tri-State League.
Mr. Farrell, secretary, reported that there

players in the 216 clubs

particularly true in the case of the Brighton
Cup, at two miles and quarter. Seventy-three
entries were received, as against forty-seven
last year. This shows conClusively that horse

A gentleman who wishes to improve
and beautify his property in western
North Dakota wrote to the experiment
station for advice as to what kinds Of
trees to plant. when and how to plant
and where to buy.
These are the questions hundreds Of
Press readers are asking and we print
in full Superintendent Waldrons reply
and would suggest also that visit to the
experiment farm when spending day in
Dickinson will be time proftably spent
and show what can be done in a short
time without artificial water supply, if
the work is rightly done.
Dear Sir:-Your favor of Sept. 4th at
hand. am sending under separate
cover bulletin issued by us which deals
briefly with most of the points you have
brought up. The trees here have been
doing remarkably we'll and l am sure
they will do as we'll for anyone if given
the same care.
We plant the native trees of Seeding
sizes, one and two years old, purchased

varieties doing best with US are the green
ash and box elder. We also have planted
elm and soft maple and other kinds in
smaller numbers.

BASEBALL
Dickinson Defeats Mott
and Claims Champion
ship Of tho West Mis-
souri, Country

The ball game played last Sunday be-
tween Mott and Dickinson at the west
end grounds resulted in victory for the
locals by score of II to 2, and gave
Dickinson the title of champions for the
West Missouri country.
The day was cold and raw and the at.
tendance was rather small in conse-
quence, but those who braved the
weather were well entertained and, in
the excitement of the game, were able to
keep warm.
The visitors were unable to score until
the fifth inning and, with another tally in
the sixth, were compelled to lay down
their playthings and surrender their claim
to the championship.
The locals came to the front with the
big stick in the first inning and pounded
out few hits, tallyipg 4 runs, and re-
peating the operation in the second,
sixth. seventh and eighth, when the other
scores were made.
The batteries were .Gilchrist and Con-
way, Davis and Boltz. The pitchers
were up against it on account of the
weather, but nevertheless each made a
good showing of strike outs.
The Mott team consisted of H. Barry,
]. Conway, M. Little, "A. HERS, w.
Smith, H. Sticken, L. Kirkpatrick, E.
Barry and Gilchrist, while kostelecky,
Davis, Boltz, Sturgeon, More, Hausdorf,
Howell, Hughes and Mcbride repre-
sented Dickinson. W.
Quite delegation from Taylor and
Mott were in attendance and with the
Mott crowd were Mrs. Arthur Bohn and
Miss Alma Elickson, who showed their
enthusiasm by facing the wind on 50.
mile drive to see the game.
The Dickinson team goes to Belfeld
Sunday for another load of scalps, and
if there are any left after this battle a
return game will be played in this city on
the following Sunday.

Other sales not listed were:

Nine head of Hereford cattle were
sold at prices ranging from S75 to SIS
per head. s
1t is very gratifying to note how the
confidence Of the buyers and sellers in
the manager and auctioneer increases
with each sale. when everybody leaves
knowing that he has had square deal.
The fifth range horse sale to be held
September 23 and ~ is to be the regular
September sale and will, without doubt,
be the best sale this year. Some of the

way, and the offerings will number 1900

finished draft horses, wagon horses and
express horses, with good sprinkling of
brood mares and colts, all of great bone
and substance.

way of entertainment, the management
has arranged for grand barbecue Tues
day evening, the 24th, and everyone in
attendance will be served with lunch,
consisting of buffalo steak and accom-
panying eatables and drinkables appro-

seats in the amphitheatre.
There were horses at this sale to suit
every kind of a buyer, and buyers ready
to take everything offered in the line of
finished draft horses, express horses,
brood mares, two-year.olds and year
hngs.
The weather previous to the sale was
very unfavorable and many of the horses
did not reach here in time, but are held
at the yards and will be in readiness at
the first hour of the next sale.
Every animal was disposed of at the
close of the five-hour sale and the yards
were empty for several hours until the
horses began to come in for the next
sale.
William Chapel of Wibaux, Mont,
had large bunch of horses at the yards
and went home feeling fine, after topping
the market with carload, which sold for

as horseman has been, known for years
and as manager of horse sale has
been fully demonstrated during the past

looking after the horses as they entered
the yard and keeping in touch with every
animal until loaded on the cars. Mr..
Watson paid especial attention to the
work Of classifying, and this was SO care
tally done that it was only necessary for
q buyer to see one horse to purchase a
carload.
The heavy draft stuff brought good
prices and the lighter horses sold very
readily for what they were worth.
