WHO IS DELLER
ANYWAY
He CAME TO TOWN AS THE
TIGERS BIG GUN AND WHAT
THE INDIANS DID TO HIM IS
FIERCE AND FUNNY.

The Indians looked forth on
Deller and the Tigers behind him
yesterday and when they went back
to the wigwam they had Ia hits off
the Tacoma champ and the game
cinched 7 to 4. And Deller is the
particularly big Tiger that pulled
out on top of a II inning, | to 0
game not long ago.
The Indians played the game yes
terday and banged away with their
war clubs until they got tired. They
were cornered in 2 or tight
places, but worked out again in
time for a strong finish.
Carney took the candy with the
stick. He hammered out safe
ones just to make Deller feel bad.
One was a 3-bagger that dropped 4
runs into the basket in a bunch.
Jensen pitched steady game all
the way through and the hits re.
corded against him were not very
effective.
One Smith and his band of root
ers comes in for credit also. Smith
organized fish horn brigade and
turned it loose on Deller The lat
ter took it for josh at first but
the bombardment got so serious he
finally forsook the earth, almost.
Smith had money up on Spokane,
by the way.
Aberdeen won at Seattle yester-
day by score of to 3. Brinker,
who relieved Tonneson in the
fourth, struck out 7, made home
Hun and allowed no safeties.

to Milwaukee to fight Charlie Neary

comes off at Davenport, Ia, June

that he will have the 10 days in

The Times took occasion to state that

been realized, in measure, in the

Of antagonism which is held, but rather

considerate 81 the wishes of the people
of the two cities insofar as It was pos

Times considers as one Of tie possibili.
ties is the extension Of the South Main
street branch Of the road To the city
line, ut least, TO the south, There has
been a demand for the extension for
several years, but it has fallen upon deaf
ears heretofore, and the city government
has not taken the steps which might
force the company to lay the extension.

better things Ia due course, without re.

kitchen barroom, no sneaking evasion.
Hence it is peryersion Of the intent of
the law when one man who perhaps
thinks ne had better chance Of secur-
ing license by applying in another
mans name, does 30 and secures the
privilege The very granting Of liquor
license carries with It the option Of Civ

cred best fitted for the business. II the
license commissioners thought they were
granting the license 10 certain man
whom they considered fit and found later
that the man had little or no connection
with the license, then there would be
fraud, This matter in Rutland ought to
be looked into to determine the truth
or falsity of the assertions.

OF course there was nothing in the situation
10 warrant real concern for her claims were too
manifestly absurd to be seriously considered for
minute. The contest for the title to this vau
able quarter section of land adjoining town was
still only between Broffy and himself, but that
was not the thing, and Hank scowled ferociously
He knew the ways of the land-shark and he
would have been immensely gratified to have had
the right one there then. He wondered what the
scoundrel had received for locating her on their
claim, and inventing that weird story of criminal
conspiracy. He must certainly have been a con-
vincing talker, for she had guped down every
word and at the thought of some of the things
she evidently believed, Hank flushed angrily OF
course the truth would straighten things, for
when she made to see how mercilessly she
had been victimized, that would end it. But who
in thunder was to tell her?
He ground his heel into the sod vindictively
Plainly that was his job and he didn't like it.
There was Broffy, but at the thought of him, he
shook his head For however capable Broffy
might be in most things, in this crisis he was
sure to be weakly inadequate. He was too full of
the nonsensical chivary of the old west to be able
ever to screw up his courage to the point of i'm
parting disagreeable information to lady in his
own interest. 1t would be more like him to surren-
der without word, and walk off, leaving her in
possession.
whimsical smile lighted Hanks face. 1t had
occurred to him to wonder what the little woman
would think If she really knew how badly her
two rufians disturbed just because, in the
defence of their own rights the facts must be un-
pleasantly humiliating to her. 1t would compel
readjustment of her notion of them that was sure.
