r OCAL baseball fan who have been
hungry for h past are to be re-
warded today and tomorrow,
when they will have "two games for a
quarter" each day. It's q long time
since the patrons Of the Tigers were
given two bargain days in a row and
it's needless to a they will turn out
in large numbers. The weather man
mixed things again yesterday. 1t was
100 to / that the game would o
be finished, If started. Inc Managers
McGinnity and Smith decided to wait
until TEDDY Day to begin the series.
Something is apt to happen today,
the Hustlers; Tigers take double
header from Bisons; and Leafs break
even at Providence, the Bengals will
go to the upper berth in the Eastern
League race.
Both teams were ready for action
yesterday, but the field was soggy and
the diamond soft. 1t was q fine day
for baking out, however, and the Tiger
twirlers and receivers warmed up in
great styles
On all bargain" days the gates will
open at l o'clock. This will afford the
fans ample opportunity to get sheir
seats without crowding. . If the Ham
burg place trollies run on a three-min-
ute Roadway it will add to the comfort
and convenience of the fans.
II. Clay Smith, the part owner of the
Tigers, arrived in town yesterday and
watched the batteries work out with
McGinnity supervising. The Windy
City magnate beamed with smiles when
he saw the salaried staff of fingers cut
loose.
Demmitt, Jones and Krichell, the.
former Tigers, are in the Royals line
up almost daily.
Well, it's beginning to look as though
the season for the warm-weather pitch
ers intends to be our guest for a while.
Don't be surprised if McGinnity es-
says to pitch a double-header. and II
he doesn't get away with it, don't
weep. Be a sport.
Just the sort of weather Messrs.
Mueller, Holmes, Kieber and Egan re-
quire to display their ability. Now
cut loose boys.

BIG men TO ADDRESS
OLD SETTLERS MEETING
Halvor Stevenson, Judge Stanton and
Judge Spooner Selected by the
+. Committee.

Halvor Stevenson, C. w. Stanton
and M. A. Spooner have been
selected by the committee in charge
of the arrangements for Old
Settlers day at the County Fair
to address the association. The
annual meeting will be held Thurs
day, September IS, at p. m. and
officers for the coming year will be
elected at that time.
MI. Stevenson is at present the
congressman from this district and
will come up for reelection this
fall. Judge Stanton was spoken of
as leader for the state democratic
party this fall but will be a candi-
date for reelection as judge. Judge
Spooner has served as judge and is
now engaged in private practice but
has been already spoken of as the
candidate in 1912 for chief justice of
the state supreme court. It is not
improbable that the speeches will
contain some interesting political
material.
The Old Settlers association is
preparing for big day. The Fair
officials have promised free admis-
sion to all wearing the old settlers
badges. Badges will be given men,
bers when they pay their yearly dues
of twenty-five cents and to new
members when they pay the initia-
ton fee of fifty cents.
The executive committee of the
association, consisting of President
George w. Wetzell, Secretary Henry
Stechman and Treasurer Earl Cell,
,metin Bemid il Saturday and selected
the speakers.-@-4,he secretary. WAS
appointed committee of one to
engage the speakers and arrange the
details of the meeting.
President Wetzell was appointed
a committee of one to procure the
badges necessity.
The society has heen doing good
work in this part of the state and
those who are members now wish
that every old settler would take ad-
vantage of the annual meeting Fair
week and come into the association.

Twin CITIES DARK TODAY
Curtain of Smoke Causes Fear There
of Fires Here.

Billows of smoke, which yester-
day da. kened the sky almost to the
blackness of night, had today rolled
on southwark, enveloping St. Paul
and Minneapolis where artificial
lights are on in full force, even the
street cars running behind blazing
headlights.
The forest fire phenomena so
alarmed the Twin City newspapers
over the safety of the northern part
of the state that they called up
different towns, including Bemidji,
under the belief that the woods
were on fire.
AS a matter of fact there are no
serious fires within many miles of
Minnesota, the curtain of smoke
floating across the continent from
the death and property destroying
confagations that are eating away
the forests aid towns of Montana
and Idaho.

Narrowly Escapes Death.

Cass Lake-August 23-(Spe-
cial to the Pioneer) -Thomas
Glidden had a narrow escape from
death here today while at work as
sisting in constructing a sewer.
He was engaged in the bottom of
the trench when without warning
the bank caved in on one side and
covered him with about four feet
of sand. He fell in a crouching
position leaving a small air space
under his body which undoubtedly
saved his life. He was rescued in
ten minutes time and an examina-
ton of his i..juries showed his hip
and shoulder were bruised, caused
by falling pianks.

PEAT FIRES REPORTED
BURNING NEAR SHOTLEY
Schrader Says Flames are Spreading to
Tree Tops-Homesteaders Timber
in Danger.

Guy Schrader, Of Shotley, who
is deputy United States marshal
and also fire warden for his quart
er, was in the city yesterday on
his way to attend trial at Super
ior. He reported the fires as
burning badly in the Shotley
country, especially along the road
from Shotley to Kelliher.
Mr.. Schrader says that he thinks
the fire started by the Smith boys
burning the brush and stumps off
their garden. The land there is
peat formed by the decaying of
trees for centuries and once on fire
is hard to put out. The farms are
on cut over land, and while the
soil is the finest kind for raising
crops, is so rich that when it once
gets on fire it is impossible to get
it out without the help of a good
rain.
The fire along the Shotley road
came above ground yesterday after
noon and was dangerous for about
three hours while the west wind was
blowing. Mr.. Schrader says that
the homesteaders in that section of
the county have cut their cedar and
have it piled ready for the skids,
and that if it is burned, they will be
ruined financially.
At the present time, the fire is in
land cut over by the Crookston and
Irvine Lumber companies and is
burning the slashings. In some
places it has jumped up into the tree
tops, but for the most part is on the
ground in the slashings and the peat.
The fire is burning south towards
the logs piled by the homesteaders.
If they once get on fire, the damage
will be graas.-but at present there is
little loss. A meeting of the (wardens
will probably be held todaJ}at Kelli-
her. Volunteers are wanted to 20
into the peat and fight with the
shovel.
Fire Ranger Grove came over from
Grand Rapids yesterday and went
north on the NJ. & I. with the ran
ger from Deer River. They expect
to look over some fires reported in
the Deer River district. All fires
reported are in the brush, the
danger lying in their spreading
over nearby farms.

WATERMAN MUST
SERVE SENTENCE
Banker Guilty Of Reckless Auto
Speeding Loses on Appeal

st. Paul, Aug. 23.-Frank w. Water
man, president of the Ramsey County
State bank, who was sentenced to
thirty days in the workhouse for reck-
less auto speeding by Judge John w.
Finehout in police court last week,
must serve his time out, according to
decision rendered by Judge G.. M.
Orr in the district court.
The banker had sued out writ of
habeas corpus from the sentence of
Judge Finehout and he has been in
the custody of the sheriff since Satur-
day, when he was brought in from
the workhouse. In denying the writ
Judge Orr decided it is not necessary
to have detailed complaint filed
when trying cases in the police court.
The attorneys for the banker at
once gave notice of;san appeal, both
from tie decision on the writ and the
sentence of Judge Finehout. There
is no provision for admitting Water
man to bail pending action on the
writ by the supreme court and Judge
Finehout refused to fix any bail in the
appeal from the sentence imposed by
himself HIN.

More Than 100 Persons Missing,

Spokane, August 23.-(Special

terrible forest fire situations in it's
history. .=.
Over so persons are known to be

The situation is most acute in the
