Cracked eggs are sold in soldiers
canteens in England at a reduced

FOOD FOR THE FANS
Vicksburg Takes Opener.

i The opening game with Vicksburg
much depended, was won by the Wis
itors, who bagged the contest by a
score of three to two. The title to
second place depended upon the out
come of the game, and a large crowd
of enthusiastic fans journeyed TO
Lake Park TO witness the battle.
Manager May was determined to de-
feat Blackburn, and Smiling George
was equally as determined to hang
Mays scalp to his belt.
May himself went to the local
mound, and proved by his work. that
he was in fine form. He had curves,
in shoots, out shoots, drops and
speed to burn, and had it not been
for one or two costly errors in the
field the big end of the score might
have gone to Columbus.
Vicksburg took the lead early in
the game, having made one run in
the third and one in the fifth. Then
the Columbians began to clout some,
One run was made in the fourth and
another in the fifth tied the score.
Vicksburg made her third run in the
eighth, when Herold hit safe, was
sacrificed to second by Meander, and
scored when Sample knocked an easy
fly to center field. The ball went
right in Mitchell's hands, but he was
either nervous or over-confident and
dropped it. Mitchell generally grabs
everything that comes his way, but
the best players have off days, and
he was evidently not feeling we'll
Monday.
Columbus forfeited a fine chance
to tie the score in her half of the
eighth, when Durmeyer beat out a
slow bunt, but started to run on
Mitchell's fly. and was thrown out
at second. The next two men up hit
safe, and had Durmeyer evinced more
discretion in base running he would
probably have scored. The kid field
ed brilliantly, however, and no man
can be expected to always do the
right thing at the right time; so
there's no kick coming.

opening of the rich reservation of the Fathead Indians

Only those who have attended the opening of some

lands of the great Fathead reservation are rich beyond
