BROOkiNGS WINS.

The Brookings high school football
team opened the season Saturday with
a Z to 0 victory over Madison The
game was played at the fair grounds
and the field was wet and slippery,
making fast play an impossibility, but
the home team displayed the greater
strength and deserved to win.
Brookings was outweighed slightly
and in addition presented patched
up team, Captain Lockhart, Maryland,
and Hewitt being out through injuries.
This handicap together with a lack of
practice by some of the men caused
the team to play raggedly at times,
but they displayed Il strength and fight
ing spirit that argues well for their
future success. The team showed that
it had been well coached and with
more practice and it's full strength in
the field 1t should win every game on
the schedule.
Madison made most of it's gains
| through the right side of the Brook
ings line, but was unable to advance
the ball consistently and never ap-
preached nearer the goal than the 40
| ard line. Reeves was the best ground
gamer for BrOokings and LOckhart
who played the last half did good work.
Bland Catlett played a fine game at
end and with more experience he
should make a valuable man. Both
teams used the forward pass but a
couple of times, probably on account
of the slippery condition of the ball
and all the gains were on straight
| football.
Brookings secured it's touchdown in
the middle Of the first half, carrying
the ball over from Madison's 15-yard
line, where the visitors had lost 1t on
downs. Chappell made the touchdown,
but Kelly failed to convert it into a
goal and the score was: Brookings, s.;
Madison, 0.
In the second half Brookings worked
the ball down to Madison's 3-yard line,
but V. Chappell fumbled and Madison
fell on the ball. They attempted to
kick out from behind their own goal
but the punt was blocked and Brook.

total up to Z.

was used as bait.
The serpent Immediately swallowed
the bait just for the fun of it. The bar
rel was then tossed overheard, and away
went the serpent and barrel. At times,
by superhuman efforts, the monster
would drag the buoy down into the
deep, but it would reappear after a
greater or shorter length of time.
For six months the serpent had that
bait in its mouth, and for six months
without a bite to eat it continued its
terrible fight against fate. But the
mind of man overcometh all obstacles,
and the monster could not escape the
trap prepared for it.
On the first day of the seventh month
the fish showed signs of weakening, and
it was pulled in and harpooned. And
even then 1t would not give up, but a
strange freak of the weather ended its
career. A storm suddenly arose. Just
as the creature made a mad plunge and
nearly broke the steel harpoon, a vivid
flash OF lightning played across the
heavens, the steel harpoon acting as a
lightning rod. The mighty bolt OF
lightning entered the enormous body OF
the reptile, and its life went out forever.
hts massive frame quivered, and the
convulsions of its death struggles made
the sea mighty seething mass Of foam.
The monster was then pulled up and

Sir Henry Foote, the famous antarc-
tic explorer, has returned from another
expedition to Ship Island, and tells of
daring adventure there, during which
trip he captured the now famous sea
serpent described by Editor Holt as be-
ing 100 feet long. The story of the
capture is as follows:
On the morning Of the second day
out, about Z bells, the serpent, with
ominous swishing of its tail, proceeded
toward the boat. Sir Henry had been
expecting his advent, and had prepared
an ingenious device for his capture. II
was nothing more nor less than an
enormous barrel-shaped buoy, attached
to the end Of which was a stout wire
rope. At the end of the rope was a
large iron ship anchor, attached tc

SCHWAMM IS SUED:
POLITICS, ALLEGED
DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE MADE
DEFENDANT
Purchasers of Cigar Store Assert
Business Was Less Than
Stated by Former
Owner

Suit was filed in the superior court
yesterday by Galley & Stephan, pro-
prietors of a cigar stand at 110 South
Spring streets. against Anthony
Schwamm, in which damages in the
sum of $2240 are asked on account of
alleged misrepresentation in the sale
of the cigar stand in February, 1907.
1t is claimed that Schwamm represent
ed that the receipts from sales amount
ed to $35 a day, and the plaintiffs say
they have never exceeded S25.
The filing of the suit is regarded as a
political move, having for its object
the discrediting of Schwamm. who is
a candidate for supervisor. Why the
suit was delayed until now, when the
purchasers of the stand must have
been aware of its value shortly after
the sale, can, it is believed, be eX-
planned only in this way, and especial
ly as the affidavit accompanying the
complaint is dated some months back
indicating that it was held until this
time in order to affect Schwamm S
election.
