Base Ball

Cavalier came over to play ball with
the Pembina nine last Monday after
noon-but it was an off day for both
sides. No less than five of the Pembina
nine We're under the weather from drink
ing the wrong kind Of water, but what
was the matter with the Cavalier crowd
we will let them tell. The first round
showed five runs for Pembina, mostly
presents, and nothing for the Cavalier
people. At the end of the fourth it was
8 to s: at the ninth it was 10 each, and
in the tenth the Pembina folks retired
with an 0 while the Cavalierities had
hung up more. The Pemhina boys
had been at Hallock on the 4th, the
Hallock people had fed them on iced
slough water and two of them got out
of bed to play, while Olander had to
drop out in the fourth inning to take
his place on the mail Car. An over-the
fence hit of Joe Mayo made two runs
for Cavalier, and Mayo himself had time
to 60 all around the bases and back to
second. The latter being necessary as
he missed touching as he went by it the
first time. Chick Conmy made fancy
back-handed catch while running at full
speed and and there were some other
good plays to relieve the monotony OF
overthrows and muffs, and other errors
and proved that both teams can play
ball when in tune. The attendance
was not what it should have been.

While at st. Paul last week we met G.
G. Mccarthy, formerly publisher Of the
Milton Globe, who three years ago NOV
ed to Menominee, Wis. He was on his
way to the Pacificcoast in search of a
new location. 1t is his intention to To-

probably enter the real estate business.
He has sold out his interests at Menom-
inee.
The Pioneer Express is authorized
to say that all stock found roaming the
streets in the mornings, before the herd
man picks them up will be impounded.
1t is the habit of some to turn the stock
lose as early as five o'clock, to the annoy
ance of others. The marshal has his in
structions to act without discrimination
and if your COW in the pound it is your
owl fault.
A Great Northern brakeman, Robt.
Scribner of Crookston, was instantly
killed at the Noyes depot on Tuesday
morning. Ten wheels of a freight pass
ed over his body. He was about 26
years of age and had been railroading
about year. The verdict of an inquest
was that he met his death accidentally
through his foot getting caught in the
railway crossing.
Reports from persons from different
parts of the county who have been here
during the week,are not as favorable to
crop prospects as we should like to hear.
The weather has been favorable but the
corresponding growth does not seem to
be coincident and for the last two weeks
the wheat has been practically at a
stand-still. Weeds are very plentiful.
Early crops look better than the late
crops. Minnesota reports the presence
of the ''green-bug" and the species has
been identified by the experts. Garden
stuff is looking we'll.
