Base Ball Game Last Sunday

The Cow Punchers and Bar Tend CTS crossed bats at the race track last Sunday afternoon in the first game played in Williams this sea- son. The day was exceptionally pleasant and a fair-sized crowd assembled to witness the contest. While the game could not, even by the widest stretch of the imagina- tion, be termed classy, yet there were some very credita ble plays made and the combat between the two hines was interesting to the spectators.
 There were two kegs of beer on the grounds, and the foaming bev- craze was dispened with a lavish hand, thus aiding. very materially in keeping up the enthusiasm of the crowd as we'll as stimulating the efforts of the players.
 Five innings were played. the score at the finish, standing 8 to 13 in favor of the Cow Puhchers. John Hill, who is conceded to be the best baseball referee in the southwest, acted as umpire. While the exhibition was more in the nature of a practice game. it was easily observable that there is first class base ball material in Williams for the formation of a nine that could hold it's own against i any team in the territory that it might be called on to do battle with, and the organization of a base ball club should at once en- gage attention.

Notice to Property Owners

Owing to the unsanitary con- dition of the town, it is necessary to have all alleys and vacant lots in Williams cleared of rubbish. A careful cleaning of the premises will serve to destroy the germs of typhoid fever.
 Complaints regarding the refusal of any one to clean up their prem ises should be made to the town health officer.
 Prosecution will follow if this or. der is not carried out immediately.

State Medical Association Discusses
InfantiIe Paralysis.

The Minnesota State Medical assoc
citation, in session at Winona, devot-

the epidemic of infantile paralysis

state the past four months ).
A year ago there were $50 cases
and this year more than four times
that number, pretty we'll scattered
throughout the state. The aim of the
Minnesota board of health and of
practicing physicians has been to dis
cover the cause of the disease and to
devise means to prevent its spread
Dr. H. w. Hill, state epid ermologist,
has devoted his entire time since the
outbreak began in visiting cases
throughout the state. AS result Of
his Investigations he inclines TO the
belief that the disease comes from
horses and is spread from horse man
ure mixed with dust It seems to
spread more readily in exceptionally
dry periods, although prevalent also
at other time; in July, August and
September.
The disease is believed to enter
the system through the nose or throat.
A strange thing is that in the great
majority of cases only one child in a
family is attacked and this is usually
the one considered to be most healthy.
So far no approved method of pre-
venting the spread of the disease has
been established, although it is
thought sprinkling in dry periods is
helpful. Absolute rest is recommends
ed for victims along with approved
medical treatment.

Forty Persons Injured in Trolley Col

Forty passengers, all employees at

citizens of st. Paul, were injured and
200 more were in danger when the
autumn leaves on the tracks caused
rear end collision of two Como-Har-

Fortunately, with half dozen ex-

of general cuts, scratches and bruises,
the cuts being caused by flying glass
from every window in the two cars.
One man may lose his right eye and
at least two may be internally injured.
