BASEBALL BEGINS TUESDAY.
American and National Leagues to
Open Season in New York.

New York, April 13.-Many an
earnest prayer to Jupiter Pluvius is
being uttered today by the enthus-
iastic fans of major league cities,
asking for fair weather and sunny
skies tomorrow, the day of all days
for the devotee of the national sport.
If the interest manifested in the me-
tropolis is criterion, the coming
season of the American and National
Leagues, opening tomorrow, will be
the most successful in baseball his
tory. Greater New York will have
two of the opening games, the New
York Americans beginning the seas
on at home with the nine from Qua
kertown, while the Brooklyn Ma
tionals will meet the Bostonians on
the diamond across the East river.
With anything approaching decent
weather. the prospects are good for
the largest crowd that ever witness
ed big league premiere.
In the American League, the
Washingtons open in Boston, the De-
troits in Chicago and the st. Louis
team in Cleveland. The first trip east
of the Western teams begins on May
IL.
In the National League, Chicago
will open at Cincinnati; Pittsburg at
st. Louis; Boston at Brooklyn and
New York at Philadelphia.
AS usual at this time of the year,
the fans of the metropolis are'hug-
ging the. hope that New York may
land at least one pennant this seas
on, and so far as the dope" is con-
cerned, the hope appears to be well
founded. Both the Giants and the
Yankees are showing up in good
shape and are likely to put up hard
fight for thecoveted rag.

Delegates to Vote for Gray
Dover, Del, April 13.-With the
object of making more effective the
Endorsement of Judge Gray for the
democratic nomination for president,
by holding an early state conven-
ton, the democrats of Delaware will
meet tomorrow and select delegates
at large to the Denver convention.
There is little doubt that the delega-

Judge Gray. 1t is believed that the
democrats of the east who are op-
posed to the selection of Bryan as
the standard bearer of the party, will
rally to the support of Delaware's ia
yorite son.

A Missionary Branch

Mrs. J. B. Robinson entertained
the Methodist Missionary women at
her home on Monday. when they
met to listen to the reports that
delegates had brought home from
the branch conference at Minneapo-
lis. Mrs. Gold and Miss Hitchcock
led the devotional service.
1t is Is years since Minnesota and
the two Dakotas were organized asa
Branch" 1t was a small, slender
branch of the great missionary tree
for some years. Now through Gods
blessing and hard work, it is large
and strong, bearing good fruit to
help in the healing of the nations.
This year the Dakotas raised 100,
Minnesota $1,000, and the German,
Swedish and Danish workers (who
are mostly Minnesotans) brought in
$4.825. The branch supports Is
foreign missionaries and numerous
bible women, schools, etc.
The delegates were packed full of
missionary enthusiasm and zeal. Mrs
Little spoke of a bequest of $4,000
made by Bishop Joyce's widow to
purchase land in China, on condi-
ton that the society erect the neces-
sary buildings upon it. Fifty cents
from each member would suffice and
the buildings are sorely needed.
Mesdames Hitchcock, Dubois and
Gold gave many interesting items
from this most inspiring conference.
Bishop Oldham of the Philippines
paid the women missionaries very
high tribute. He said he had very
little hope Of any field until woman
is there at work. Bishop Robinson
of India said, 1T is the burden Of
great opportunities that cannot be
fully improved. and not the climate
that breaks down the missionary"

present in addition to the two mis-

COMFORTING WORDS
Many a Redwood Falls Household

To have the pains and aches of a
bad back removed; to be entirely
free from annoying, dangerous urin-

back and loins for five or six years

ural incolor and scalding in passage.

L. F. Day, now vice president and

will hereafter devote his time to the
duties of vice president. Mr.. Cutter
is western man, having gained his
early railroad experience in construc-
ton work on the Northern Pacific
road.
Some one who has evidently lived
at Redwood Falls says: Because a
girl has not married young, and is
approaching lineage where, if single,
she will be put into the old maid
class, is no proof that she is not
good and nice, but rather is an evil
dence that she knows her own worth
that she has good sense and prop
er appreciation of life, and will not
hitch up with just anybody who
might propose. We have few such
in our vicinity, and they are jewels,
worth their weight in gold. In this
locality, as elsewhere, the best are
not the easiest obtained, but lucky
is the worthy young man who is ac-
cepted."
Sanborn Sentinel: With the be-
ginning of this month E. P. Dotson
of this place severed his connection
with the Atlas Elevator Co. and is at
the present time man of leasure.
Mr.. Dotson began work for the
Porter Milling Company of Winona
when they had nothing here but
their old fat-house, and all the grain
had to be shoyeled from one bin to
another and then to the car for
shipment. In few years the firm
incorporated under the name of the
Winona & Dakota Elevator Co. and
did business under this name until
1891 when the company again re-or-
ganized under the name of the Atlas
Elevator Co., the name which they
now possess.
Madison Press: 1t was Oct. 18th,
1881, that what is now known as the
great October blizzard struck the

in 1908 that history repeated itself,
only not on so extensive scale this
time. That storm of 1881 is al.
ways referred to here in connection
with the Republican legislative con.
vention at Tracy at which Sam Pet.
erson received a nomination for the
legislature over ]. F. Jacobson by a
majority of one vote. The conven.

MERELY IN
A DAYS WORK
Many Hardships Endur-
ed by Employee Of Big
Power Comp any

After three days Of battling and pri-
va.ion against snow, sleet and hunger,
"Snowshoe Bill" Bennett made his
way into Gardnerville Sunday, having
crossed the Sierra Nevada range from
Placerville to that place on snow
shoes. He followed the course Of the
water lines of the Standard Electric
Company, saving the dams of that big
corporation from being carried away
by drifting ice and snowsiides and in
suring the company's patrons on both
sides of the mountains a power and
water supply.
This is no new work to Bennett. He
has been employed by the company
for the past eleven years. His time
for work begins when the first fall of
snow in the mountains comes and
from that time until long after spring
opens he is always on duty, ready at
all times to risk his life that the res
er oirs and the bitches of the power
ccmpan might be kept open.
In all these years. however. his last
experience was the most trying.
Practically the entire journey from
Placerville was made on snowshoes.
Nearly every step of the journey was
made in the face of a terrible bliz-
zard, the snow in places forming
huge drifts in which he would have
perished had long practice not made
him an expert on snowshoes.
He was suffering some from his

ASKS FOR
EARLY TRIAL
Cushman Requests linz
mediate Consideration
Of His Case

RENO December &c. B. Cush-
man, a member of the firm OF Lang
ley and Cushman, brokers Of Reno,
and formerly cashier of the Tonopah
branch of the State Bank & Trust
Company, has returned from Tonopah
where he appeared before Judge o.
Brien and answered the indictment
against him. He asked for the speed
lest possible trial on the indictment
and did not even offer a demurrer to
the charge.
In speaking Of the affair Cushman
said:
THE transaction for which l was
indicted was perfectly legitimate and
l cannot understand why I was not
called before the Grand Jury and
given an opportunity to explain the
case before an Indictment was re-
turned, as others accused of charges
We're given the privilege. The in
dictment is the result of a transac-
ton il Manhattan with the Manhattan
branch of the State Bank & Trust
Company. l had gone to Manhattan
on business matter and there a
mining man wanted to buy some min.
ing stock. I at first refused, stating
that / had no money with me. The
cashier Of the Manhattan branch of
the State Bank & Trust Company
offered to let me have $1,000, the
amount needed, with some mining
claims l had there and the stock l
intended to buy as security. l took
the money and gave the security he
wanted"

AS TO ANNUAL WORK

The season for completing annual
assessment work is at hand. and any
who have thus far neglected this nee
essary compliance with the Jaw had
better make haste to attend to it.
There are those who think relocation
will answer all purposes, but if an
other party locates the claim, and can
prove that assessment work has been
neglected, the relocator will be able
to make his claim good. In other
words, to locate a claim in which you
already have an interest, and upon
which the annual work has not been
performed, gives no additional rights.
