JOKE ON CUSTOMS OFFICERS.

The smuggling case which was re- ported in New York recently, in which it was alleged that man act ing as valet had taken valuable jewels ashore for the owner, recalled a smuggling story which took place several years ago. A servant had gone ashore from a German liner, with basket, and was about to leave the pier when passenger whispered to customs officer that he had bet ter see what the basket contained. Following the tip, the basket bearer was detained and wooden box was found among a lot of soiled linen. The box contained another, and this still another box, the third securely fastened with screws. When these were removed a card was discovered on which was written in three lan- guages: "This is the first of April. nsny hannv returns of the day"

My back was so weak and painful that for weeks l could not straighten. l often had dizzy spells and at such times had to catch hold of something to keep from falling. My feet and ankles swelled to nearly twice their nat ural size, and I was also bothered by frequent desire to pass the kidney secretions. l was treated by six physicians but none of them seemed to understand my case felt myself sinking lower and low CT every day and became alarmed l had about given up hope of ever being cured when friend advised me to try Deans Kidney Pills. 1 did so and the results of their use were far beyond my expectations, My health improved rapidly and today I have no system of kidney complaint whatever.

Of men walking in the Rad. Upon
questioning them he suspected they
were the parties wanted and took
them into custody.
When they got them to the county
jail they were confined in separate
cells and given the third degree with
such success that they led the sheriff
to the place where the bracelet and
some of the money was found Sunday

The work of the sheriff ond his

UNDERWOOD TEAM
TOOK LAST GAME
TOWER PROVES PUZZLE FOR THE
LOCALS IN GAME MONDAY
AFTERNOON.
Bum Decision in First Inning Account
able for Three Of the Scores Made
BY Underwood.

What a difference the little word
'tif'' makes in the affairs of men. The
same is true of baseball. If the UNI
pire had been on the job in the first
inning of the game Monday and had
seen Prichard when he made the run
for third and was caught six feet
off the base by Mclean there would
have been a different story to tell
of the game. But then, whats the
use, it's all over and gone now, and
we got the big game Of the series
anyway.
The play In question came up In
the first inning. Prichard hit and got
to first, made pretty steal of Sec
ond and then made a run for third
where he Was xcaalEhtSat least six
feet OF the Base, but tie umpire did
not see the play and called him safe.
This decision put the local boys up
in the air for a minute and before the
balloon came- down three runs had
been secured.
Bismarck got busy in their half Of
the first and scored three. Liver
more was hit and given first, Cowan
and Edwards struck out and Hurst
landed for two Dagger and brought
Livermore home. Kaiser got to first
on an error by Odegaard nd was
brought home by two Dagger by
Mclean, who was put out at Sec
ond.
This ended the scoring for Bis
1R +ho ~.
though they got number of men on
bases, having three there In the third
when Mclean knocked little one to
Towers.
In, the third Prichard for Under
wood got hit and Clark was given
q base on balls but got out at Sec
ond. Dryer flew out at second and
Tower hit and scored Prichard.
George ended the agony by putting
an easy one down down towards the
first sack.
No more runs were made until the
eighth when Ryder hit, Showers got
to first by an error by Vandever and
Prichard hit again; Clark went out to
Burton and Dwyer on thlow by Ed
wards to Vandever; Tower nit again
and scored two and Lynch scored
Prichard by a little bingle after which
George again closed the. deal by fly
Ing out to left.
In the first of the ninth Odegaard
hit an awful wallop to deep left and
made second safely but tried to
strtch it to three and was caught by
Mclean Ryder fouled out to Ed
wards and Showers hit an easy one
to short who put 1t to first in time to
stop the game. <<~.,s.,
I. Neither OF the teams put up. the
game of the two days before but
there was fun enough for all and a
lot Of good playing by both teams.
Bismarck was little lame on base
running in one or two instances but
on the whole they made good. II
there are any more games here be-.
tween the two teams money, win be
scarce In the betting ring as the gem
eral opinion is that there is very lit
tie to choose between them. ) n

HVERM0RE'S Catch
SUNDAY GAME feature
FAST LITTLE LEFT FIELDER COW
Erred HIMSELF WITH
GLORY.
Bfsmack Took Second Game # Series
BY Score Of to 2-Parker Pitched
Fine Steady Game.

There was Joy among the baseball
fans of the city Sunday afternoon
and evening, as they succeeded In
cleaning up the fast bunch from I'm.
derwood in a decisive manner. The
game went for nine fast innings and
never until the last man was out was
!. there a sure thing for either side.
The Comany A boys played a much
faster and cleaner game then was put
up Saturday and Parker. surely pitch
ed the game of his life.
y, The feature Of the game, and in
fact of the entire season, was Liver
mbre's catch of Loye's long fly to left
field and his almost phenomenal
throw to first where he caught his
man who thought the ball was a safe
hit and started foR second. The play
ended Underwood's chance to score
and set the fans frantic.
Just as a little appreciation Of Liv-
ermore's play the following sign was
displayed on the screen at the Gem
at the evening performance just as
MIR. Livermore made his appearance:
Underwood 2; Livermore g."
Shower started the twirling for Un-
derwood and was putting up good
article when in the second half of the
seventh Towers was put in to ssave
the game" but for once proved easy
money for the batters from the arm
DRY and it was in this inning they
secured the score that won the game
for them.
Hurst. put up a good game at short
and Mclean was there some with the
stick and played an errorless game
at third.
Underwood only connected with the
ball three times with safety and the
Bismarckers collected four hits OF
Showers. u N*|s
Each side made three errors. The
game was played In one hour and a
half and was witnessed by a good
sized crowd In spite of the threaten
inps weather.
