a year ago.

Base Ball Games Result In Two VIC

Saturday and Sunday

Sauk Centre, 1; Browerville, 0.
Sauk Centre, II; Browerville, 0
This the result of two games of ball
played on the home grounds Satur-
day and Sunday. And the local fans
are glad.
Some recent changes in the person.
mel of Sauk Centres hired men pro-
duced a few cases of palpitation of
the heart among admirers of the
great national game hereabouts, but
the results showed that Manager De-
ters and Captain Bouton knew what
they were doing. Berscheid and Owen
were the new men obtained to take
the places of a pair of "booze fighters"
which the management very sensibly
gave their walking papers last week.
Berscheid failed to make good and
was released Monday. Owen arrived
Saturday night and made his. initial
bow in Sundays game. He is good
slab artist, though he takes things
rather easy. Browerville got hits off
him and Sauk Centre got Is off the
other fellows. In Saturdays game
Browerville got hits off Jones, Sauk
Centre getting 6 off Brown.
Browerville never had "look in"
in Saturdays game, ronly zone man
reaching third base and that was i'm
the eighth inning, while second was
reached but twice. Sauk Centre had
all three bases filled twice and made
one run with ease, Bouton bringing
in the winning score in the first inn
ing. Sauk Centres right and center
field were covered faultIessly, Nelson
especially distinguishing himself by
eating up everything that came his
way, one long fly being rather difficult.
Dietrich made two good catches.
Arnstead also tielded we'll. Nelson is
good man and with little more ex-
perience will improve materially. He
got two hits off Brown. An error by
Hines at critical time deprived the
locals of another run. Otherwise
Hines covered his position well.
The visitors battery did good work
and their fielding was good on the
whole, but they seemed to be unable
to connect with the sphere in man.
ner that would elude Deters' men.
Sundays game was very one-sided
affair. Brown went in to the box
again and lasted for five and half in
nings, when he retired with a damag-
ed digit. He was replaced by J.
Wanakabo for one and half innings,
he in turn being succeeded by Sycora,
who finished the game. Brown held
Sauk Centre down fairly we'll, con-
sidering the fact that it was his Sc
cond game in the box in succession.
After he retired the fireworks began
and the visitors were simply at the
mercy of their opponents.
Heifner umpired both games salts
factorily.

is lame and can't get out of town, is
treasurer. There was eighteen hun
dred dollars in the treasury and no
bad crossings to be fix. The town hall,
which was also the meat market,
needed to be painted and the floor
swept, but two saloon licenses of five
hundred each would be due before the
improvements would be acted upon

FOR The CREAMERY
Dairymen and Buttermakers Gath
er In Sauk Centre
HOLD A FINE MEETING
Program In the City Park Followed
By Base Ball Game and Ride
on SaGk Lake

The Central Minnesota Dairymen's
and Buttermakers Association held a
highly successful meeting in Sauk
Centre Thursday, June l.. Some
forty odd members of the organization
were in attendance. The weather fur
nished was the finest brand Of which
Minnesota can boast. hence the meet
ing was held in the city park in the
afternoon. y A. Zoerb, president of the
association, presided at the speech
making. A goodly number of farmers
attended and heard much that was of
interest to them.
The visitors were welcomed by
Mayor +. E. Minette and DR.. j. A.
Dubois on behalf of the city. Both
The Sauk Centre herald., 1909-06-24

gentlemen delivered characteristic
addresses and when they were through
the men who handle the products of
the cow knew that during their stay
in the city the latch string was out
and they would be welcome. The re-
Sponse was made by ChaS. Cole, who
travels for house that sells cream
cry supplies. Mr.. Cole spoke in a
happy vein, expressing appreciation
of the hearty welcome extended.
A. d. French. State Dairy and Food
Commissioner, was the next speaker.
Mr.. French emphasized the import
"ance of cooperation and urged the
farmers to support the cooperative
creamery. He advised farmers to
take things as they are and adapt
themselves to existing conditions.
He cared more for the latitude of a
man than for his longitude; the
country needs broad minded men.
]. r. Morley of Owatonna, presi-
dent of the Cooperative Creameries
Association of Minnesota, followed.
Mr.. Morley also ephasized the value
of cooperation. He defined coopera-
tion in it's broadest sense as working
together for the common good.
"When we hire buttermaker," said
Mr. Morley, 1--WE should give him the
privilege of rejecting any raw materi-
al that is not up to high grade. If
we give him poor material we have
no right to complain if we get poor
butter"
j. C. Joslin of Mankato asserted
that the butter produced in the
creameries of the state is growing
poorer, as evidenced by entries in re-
cent scoring contests. He urged a
higher standard.
Peter Miller of Morris urged the
I. protection of the local creameries.
While he did not believe in centrali-
zation, yet he believed the central
purchasing station had accomplished
good in many cases. Some creameries,
he said, make the mistake of accept
ing poor cream. The central stations
take everything that comes their way.
He urged cooperative creameries to
get rid of their local croakers, to have
first class managers and buttermakers.
E. X. Slater, formerly at the head
of the State Dairy Commission, was
the next speaker. Mr.. Slater is an
enthusiast and took his audience by
storm. He paid fine tribute to the
dairy cow and urged better care of
her. He thought If the average
cow was as well cared for as the
average horse on farm the farmer
would get far better results. The
average COW, he asserted, is a whole
lot better than the average farmer.
The Sauk Centre herald., 1909-06-24

''The average farmer is not fit to care
for dairy cow, was one of Mr..
Slater's assertions Mr.. Slater talked
straight from the shoulder, but
though his remarks were plain yet
what he said was received with hear
ty applause.
The last speaker was c. A. Nelson
of Atwater who urged the purchase
and keeping of special purpose COWS
for dairy work and special purpose
cattle for beef stock. In this manner
only, he claimed, could the best results
be obtained.
After the speaking had been con-
cluded picked mines from the butter
makers and the travelling men hied
themselves to the fair grounds and
engaged in a contest on the base ball
diamond there. Mayor Minette Off
ciated as umpire and the two sides
'played BALI for five innings, subject
to much good natured joshing from
their companions who did not care to
venture on to the diamond, but who
preferred to ''take theirs along with
S. p. Hansen in the grand stand.
After five innings of more or less in
terest and strenuous eXertion the game
ended, the score standing IL to 10 in
favor of the travelling men. After
supper the visitors were given boat
rides on beautiful Sauk Lake in the
"Prudentia" the Harriet" and other
launches.
One of the events of the convention
was the butter scoring contest for
three prizes aggregating $500 offered
by the city council. The results
follow:
N. H. Kelly, Grove Lake, 95-irst
prize. S7.OO.
Frank O'Donnell, Round Prairie,
944 second prize, $500.
Anton Baltes, Meters Grove, a.
third prize, $500.
Peter Christensen, Garfield, 90.
E. Greenwood, Roscoe, SO.
Paduca Creamery, Sauk Centre, 92l.
Peter Baltes, Melrose, 92!
L. P. Hennes, Torah, Oh.
J. G. Riekerl, Willard, 81.
Peter Miller, Morris, 81.
NJ. Weston, Albany, 81.
Gust Quade, Unity, 81.
Mrs. McGibbon, 81.
Mrs. d. NJ. Smith, 80.
The last two are complimentary.
The following resolutions were
adopted by the visitors.
Resolved: That we, the officers
and members of the Central Mime
sofa Dalrymen's and Buttermakers'
Association, hereby express our
hearty appreciation and sincere
thanks for the many courtesies shown
us by the mayor, city council and
citizens generally of Sauk Centre dur
ing our stay in this beautiful little
city.
That we desire to especially thank
them for providing such fine place
of meeting in the beautiful city park,
for transportation to and from the
base ball grounds, and for the delight
full launch ride on beautiful Sauk
Lake.
A. ZOERB, President,
E. GREENWOOD, Secretary,
For the Association.
One of the incidents of the meet
ing was the fact that President Zoerb
is on his wedding trip. Mr.. Zoerb
has charge of the creamery at Aitkin
which is winner, and after leaving
Sauk Centre he and his bride went
on to Lake Minnetonka for few days
outing.
To the local committee, consisting
of Messrs. Chas. A. Morse, H. W..
Botz, Geo. M. Deyoe, Andrew Wick
lund, Adam Orth, r. Gamradt, and
VIM. Grams, is due great cretit for
the arrangements that enabled the
program to be pulled off without a
hitch.

RUSSIA
WHAT 1T MEANS TO THE WORLD
AT LARGE
Reverend w. T. Brown Discusses
Theme From Liberal Religious
and Humanitarian Standpoint

Reverend W.T.. Brown. speaking
last evening to an appreciative con-
gregation upon the revolutionary
struggle in Russia and what 1t means
to the world, said in part:
Most people In this country have
been taught not only In the public
seen in our public life, that revolu-
tions are mere incidents In the his
tory of the human race Revolutions
come only at long intervals and they
are to be regarded as something dread
full Not boy or girl that attends
any public school In this country Is
ever told the truth about our own rev.
olutlon or about what revolutions
mean OF what place they have In the
worlds life. There isn't q textbook
in print among us nor even work
of reference which shows that the
American revolutionary struggle has
any immediate bearing or relation
to the present generation And be-
cause this is so, the American peo-
pie have become fetch worshippers.
They have made the revolutionary
war fetch. They have assumed In
all their thought about 1t that the
principles of action which inspired the
reyered men of that day were merely
Incidental and temporal We have
never been taught that the principles
by which the men of 1776 were ac-
tuated were simply the principles by
which all their posterity ought TO be
actuated. We have assumed that the
great value of the revolutionary IA
theirs was that they did something
for us. that they thus freed us from
any similar obligations, This Is the
immoral and false doctrine which we
Of this nation have received. And |
call you to witness that right here in
our America, in a nation which on all
public occasions has boasted of the
deeds Of our revolutionary ancestors.
we have all been taught to regard
with suspicion and hostility any con-
temporary person or party which saw
ored in the least of a revolutionary
spirit, We have organized our So
cieties Of Sons of the Revolution"
and Daughters of the Revolution
mere toys for idle and aimless peo-
pie to play with-and prided oursel-
yes II we could OH being entitled by
the mere chance of birth-neyer be-
cause of any actual virtue possessed
by ourselyes-to belong to one OF
other Of these societies. For dead
revolutionists we have professed the
deepest reverence. but we have had
no use whatever for live revolution
ist. Could there be a better proof
OF utter degeneracy than we have Civ
en- IN this respect 1t wasn't dead
revolutionists that counted in 177G and
it isn't dead revolutionists that count
in 1909 Anywhere and anv time one

dead ones.

speech OF men in earnest did not seem

IN SALT LAKE

much so far as the shock was con
cerned, but out OF curiosity | went to
the platform to learn the cause OF
the stop. Only then did ] suspect
that we had been in collision. 1t
seemed as though the passengers from
every undomaged car were upon the
scene Instantly and every man and a
majority of the women set to work
to aid the unfortunates under the de-
bris.
when we had completed our work
1t was found that nineteen were dead.
three others died in the hospital and
a hobo who was riding the blind bag
gage was crushed to death. That
made a total of % dead. 1t was a
wonder to me that the cars did not
catch fire, but, fortunately we did
not have to battle against that mis-
fortune The chair coach was COM
pletly demolished and there was hard
ly enough OF it left to fill cigar box.
Where the accident occurred there is
a river on one side of the embankment
and sheer descent on the other side.
The impact drove the tourist sleeper
right through the chair car ahead, one
side falling down the embankment and
the other into the water
ut seemed as though there were
injured and dying people everywhere.
Cries for help filled the air and the
dying offered up prayer upon prayer
TO be taken quickly that they might
escape their awful sufferings, and for
the protection of their wives or hus-
bands and children. There was wo-
man physician on board and a young
medical student from New York. AS
last as we could clear the injured
from the wreck, we hurried them to
the dining car, laid them on tae floor
and hurried back for others.

We had been working hard but we
put more energy. If possible into our
labors and soon mad the little girl
freed from the wreckage She was
badly hurt, but we knew it would
help the dying parents If we told them
the child was safe. When we reached
them with our consoling message we
were too late. The father. motaer and
two boys had passed TO the great be-
yond
"a little further on our attention
was called to a little girl about six
years old. She was lying dead upon
the second locomotive of the freight
train. Evidently when the impact
came She had been hurled from the
chair car over the baggage car and
two engines.
The hobo on the blind baggage was
pinned between the tender and the
front or the baggage car. 1t was i'm
possible to remove him and as he was
dead, we allowed aim to remain there.
