TIE MONUMENT DEDICATED

j TIE NJ yin Y VI fIIN ~ III tis-iA E4lJ |
The dedication of the G. A.
r. monument which took place |
in Hurley Tuesday was the long
cherished dream Of the members
of the local post. Before a large
assemblage gathered in Lincoln
Park the formal exercises of
dedication were carried out and
the monument presented to the
community.
The monument was erected in
fall OF 1908 by d. W. Rapalee of
Sioux City at q total cost of
about 81 500 The total structure
is about thirty feet high and it
Stands ia the center of Lincoln
Park facing down Center Ave
nue. which is the main business
street of the city. 1t is of ST.
/ Cloud granite in two colors.
The main shaft is of brown,
standing on a three piece base
of alternating brown and gray.
On the top is a bronze soldier
about seven feet high and bear
ing a flag. On the front of the
main shaft is the wording,
Erected 1908 by the Grand
Army OF the Republic, Women's
Relief Corps and Citizens in
memory Of the defenders Of our
country. On the north face is
the w. r. G. emblem and on the
south face the G. a. R. emblem.
The dedicatory exercises took
place at the monument and We're
in charge of the Grand Army
4 Post. Walter Carr as command
er, G. B. Harrigle, officer Of the
day, and Il. S. Fessenden, chap
lain, the sturdy remnant OF the
soldier boys OF '65, according to
to the Grand Army ritual CON
Secrated the monument to pos
terity as an inspiration of patri-
otism forever. A guard Of hon
or composed of members of the
post stood by the monument
while the officers in the fore
ground performed their services.
| In behalf of the citizens of Hur-
ley and vicinity Mayor Sanborn
made a short and pleasing adj
dress in which he spoke of the
/ interest Of the community in the
monument and what it repre-.
sented to the public at large,
) After a closing prayer by the
chaplain and a song by the
choir the crowd then passed or
: to the seats by the band stand.
After a splendid selection by
) the Harley band and another
song, Commander Carr intro
duced the speaker of the day
Senator R. J. Gamble of Yank

remarks Senator Gamble tracee

redeem his record of no hits made SO
far in the game. lie met the bail
with a terrific clout that put it way
over the pasture fence. The
nit was easily good for home run
but under the rules it counted for
only three bases as the game was
over as soon as Parsons scored.
Of course Hurley went wild and
overwhelmed the players with CON
gratulations. 1t was clean victory
won on merit. The few errors MADE
did not alter the result. II High
street who pitched for Lennox is said
to have had $l00 wagered on the re-
suit and he certainly did his share
to avert defeat. He struck out 19,
gave 2 bases on balls and hit bat
ters. Payne struck out only 2 but
for the most part Lennox was un-
able to get any good hits OF him.
With splendid field support every
pail seemed to drop into a ready NIT.
Thirteen Lennox batters found the
ball but only two of the hits We're
good for more than one base. Payne
gave three passes.
The fact has been demonstrated
that Hurley has Il splendid ball team
and when the boys get together and
play without error they can cone
near defeating any team in this part
of the state. AS we have said be-
fore the boys are hard workers and
their work does not allow them to
practice as much as they should.
But that they can play ball is dem
onstrated and if through too hard
work they sometimes make errors
and drop game we respect them al
the more for it. Ball playing is a
recreation and not a business IL Hur-
ley but in spite Of that we have a
team thai can make them all go.

on R. Rundell's single. There were
several times after this when Hurley
got men on bases and hit would
have meant run but the coveted
hit was not forth coming. Payne
struck out 8, allowed z hits, hit one
and gave one base on balls. High
street struck out 13, allowed z hits,
hit two with the ball and gave two
passes. Following is the summary:

BASE BALL BARS
THE "BUGS" TYPE

The days of the 'souse' and the care
less actor In big league base ball are
thing Of the past" Manager Griffith said
the other day. II don't want any man on
my team who drinks to excess at any
time, or who fails to keep in perfect con-
dition throughout the entire season.
don't care how good the player he may
be when he is right. If he drinks he is I'M
reliable and no real good to a ball club.
This is not a temperance lecture, for this
is a free country, and everybody has a
right to do as he pleases with regard to
his personal habits. 1t Is simply my way
Of looking at 1t from a business point of
view. Base ball has become a scientific
game, which requires the greatest effort
that player can put forth, and he must
be in shape all the time, or he cannot
give his best services. All the great play
ers of the country are bright fellows,
who appreciate the value of keeping in
condition. Those who do not keep in
condition are not bright and are of little
use to club that Is trying to win high
position in a league race. AS soon as
find one of my players failing to do the
right thing in this respect am going to
get rid of that fellow just as soon as l
can, for he will be a handicap to the
club, in case of close fight for position.
1t would be a fine thing to need one game
to cinch a position in the race and then
have one of your best men export on the
big day in no shape to work. None of
these easy-going fellows need apply to
the Cincinnati club. for there is no room
for them on it. l am no Sherlock Holmes
and l have no time during the summer to
spend watching my players to see that
they do not go to the bad every once in
while. 1 want only men on whom l can
rely always for their very best efforts"
Griff himself has always kept in the best
of shape, and that is why he can now,
though nearly forty years of age. go out
on the field and give as good an exhiul-
ton or pitching as many a young man
fifteen years his Junior. He has the cor
rect idea on that point, and he says he in
tends to live up TO it strictly next season.
The Reds are going to have a hard battle
IN 1910 for Grif aims high, and he is go
Ing to keep the club al top notch speed
right from the jump. Men who are not
able to keep the pace will have to go to
some Of the don't care clubs, where the
journey around the circuit is apt to be
one big round of pleasure.

Favors English Rugby.

Arthur Irwin. the Highlanders' scout,
who is running a novel scoreboard at
the big foot ball games. has just returned
from Canada, where he saw a game of
English Rugby. Irwin predicts that I'M
less this style OF play Is adopted by
leading American college elevens the
present game will be stopped by legisla-
ton. He argues that interference" in
the American game is the direct cause of
many fatalities and points to the fact
that such tactics are not allowed in Can
ada, where foot ball is remarkably free
from serious injuries. mo players
should be allowed to precede the man
with the ball. Irwin argues, i'and in
that way an opponent cannot be knocked
out by coming in contact with two or
three men who pave the way for the ball
carrier Irwin says that Harvard and
Yale should invite two of the Canadian
elevens to play exhibition games at Cam
bridge and New Haven In order to have
the fine points of English Rugby clearly
demonstrated.

mage and sought his place in the line
Another play was started directly at him:
he met it fairly. the line wavered scarce
second and then gave way before the on
slaught. Smith had taken the ball clean,
ly through Swarthmore's famous guard
for 10 yards. Maxwell had been put
out in the play and was taken from the
field.
TT was pretty tough said Maxwell
grimly, remembering his bruised body
that kept him from the game for three

ground for a foothold Coach George
Brooke wanted me to quit, but l told him
1t was nothing. I was hurt, and hurt
badly, but something Stevenson said mace
me stick. He said: What are you blub-
bering for, you big dub? Are you mad
because we're going to lick you? You'd
better get down in the line. for I'm goin'
to send ten plays right through YOU
And he did. He knew what he had
done and that IL got down in the line |
PENIS attack and he sent the plays right
at me. l don't know how many, but they
seemed to be none playing on our team
but me. Then l began to play rough and
1 had the satisfaction of seeing three
go down before me. but each was harder
than the first. The last one was fresh
and / was already badly bruised and he
did for me-
That incident of modern American foot
ball is only one of thousands that occur
weekly throughout the season. 1t shows
to what ends a team will go to win. 1t
also shows where the changes should be
made to make 1t more safe. The rules
committee can formulate as many set
rules as they please and foot ball will not
be made less dangerous until coaches are
satisfied to play with the material they
have at hand and teach it to play Clearly.
