Pa wanted to save Raglan and Rhodes
for the opening game at Sioux City. so
War Sanders was sent back for the second
game. For a time 1t looked as though a
mistake had been made, as the first four
Boosters who faced Sanders hit him safe.
Dolan was retired and the next two bit
safe, although Belden returned the ball
quick enough to retire Neihoff before he
reached second. Heckinger flew out to
Aubrey, and the bulletin board showed six
hits and five runs. That was the handicap
which faced the Omaha batsmen, but
they went right after the needed runs, and
by the fourth inning had the score tied.
with those five runs staring them in the
face, the Rourke family went to the task
of catching up from behind. Bigelow
started the good work by drawing a pass,
was sacrificed to second by King, and he
and Austin scored the first two runs on
Austin's home run.
In the third the Boosters lead was cut
down two more. Sanders opened with a
triple and scored ,qn, R!gelow's single. Bel
den pulled off another sacrifice, and Bige-
low went to third on Austin's infield out
and scored on Autrey's safe bunt. No one
was expecting Aubrey to bunt, so he was
able to make it safe with ease. The score
was tied in the fifth on doubles by Lee
Brand and Belden.

Republican Rally

The opening rally of the Re-
publican campaign in Roberts
county was held Saturday after
noon and evening in Sisseton.
Governor Crawford spoke in the
the afternoon, and Hon. R. S.
Vessey and Hon. John Kean in
the evening. There were good
audiences both afternoon and
evening. National, state and
county issues were taken up in
their turn, each one being pre-
sented in such a forcible and
clear manner that there could re-
main no doubt as to which
party was in the right and
which was in the wrong. The
meetings were opened by H. M.
Knight, secretary of the Re
publican county committee, and
the speakers were introduced by
Judge j. O. Andrews, who pre-
sen.ed each name with a few
appropriate remarks in his usual
eloquent and pleasing style.
The speeches were well re-
ceived, especially that of Ex-
Luietenant Governor Kean, who
held his audience in wrapt at
tention throughout his
address. The Corona Band were
in evidence and their part was
heartily appreciated.

Fire Wednesday morning at an
early hour destroyed the resi-
dence of Nels Ingvarson, across
from the Catholic church
and Mrs. lngvarson and
two children, one a girl
a years old and one a boy 4
months old were burned to
death. Ingvarson who works in
q livery barn says he got up and
bui 1t the kitchen fire at about 5
O'Clock and went to work, what
happened afterwards is mere
conjecture. 1t is supposed that
Mrs. Ingvarson had attempted
to put kerosene oil on the fire
and that an explosion occurred
knocking her down. When the
remains were found she lay near
the stove, frightfully burned,
and the kerosene can with the
bottom blown out Was near her.
The children were both in bed
yet and were not burned badly.
The fire had got through the
building before it was discover
ed. The building was only a
one story structure and had there
been any one there in time the
children could probably been
saved. The funeral was held
Wednesday afternoon. The
bereaved husband and father has

He had been collecting bills all

two miles of town when he met

strangers called to him and ask
ed if this was the road OF Sasse's,
and Lehr answered that it was,
whereupon one of the strangers
got out of the buggy and came
over to Lehr' wagon, pretending
that he had not heard what Lehr
had said, jumped up on the hub
of the wagon and struck Lehr
with a slungshot, rendering him
unconscious. This was the last
that he remembers until he was
almost within the city limits.
When he recovered consciousness

and the number of deaths reported
substantially the same as last year
The fly season opened earlier this year
than last, but reached its height In
July, as it did last year, and the
largest weekly number Of deaths from
such disorders reported last year COIN
cided exactly with the week ended Au-
gust 8. This summer the highest
weekly death record was 448, made for
the week ended July IS; but It followed
two weeks in which the catches of flies
were 1000 each-nearly as high as
the maximum.
A noticeable decrease in the number
OF deaths corresponded with a catch
of a much smaller number of flies.
DR.. Jackson thinks that the education
which the people have had in the last
year in regard to the dissemination of
disease germs by flies has probably
had a share in keeping the death rate
down.
