Lake captains who pilot their boats
without accident during the season of
navigation will receive, for their ef
forts, substantial sum of money by
the provisions of the new insurance
arrangement for lake vessels, in effect
this year for the first time.
AS an incentive to caution, the zap
tain of a boat valued at $4,000 who
goes through the season without mis-
hap will receive a purse of s443 at the
close of the season. At the valuation
named with the 6 per cent rate the
gross premium is $204OO and the net
premium $17,74S. OF this amount the
underwriters return 10 per cent for no
claim. which would amount to $l,774

plan has already lessened the number
of accidents. The captains are more
careful and don't take so many
chances. The money looks pretty good

time. without accident and they are
all anxious to finish up with a clean

DOUBLE-H. LOSES
TOHANCOCK Team
ERRORS AND NEW PITCHER
COMBINE TO BRING ABOUT
DEFEAT OF LEADERS
STORY OF GAME.

Matheson, the new acquisition to
the pitching stan of the Double-H
baseball team OF the Copper Country
Baseball league. probably caused the
defeat OF the league leaders in their
game against the Hancock aggrega-
ton at the Hurontown park yester-
day afternoon. although a liberal sup
ply OF errors did much TO aid Han
cock IN coping a victory by the one
sided score OF 10 70 ?. Matheson went
on the slab for the Double-H team in
the first inning and became very ner-
vous. probably because il was his
first game with this team before the
inning was half over he had hit two
batters and passed another and Man
ager Wedge took him from the box
and put him on third base, where he
played a star game throughout the
afternoon. which made up In part for
some of the bad work he did in the
box
Orth was the second man TO try his
hand at the tanning Of the Hancock
sluegers but he did little better ana
the first spasm ended with Hancock
six talies TO the good When the
Double-H team took the field for
the second inning. McAuliffe appear
ed on the slab and he held the Han
cock batters very well until the nth
inning. when they succeeded in put
ting over a couple more runs 20 on
set two which the local players had
chalked up in the third inning. HUI
rontown was unable 10 score after the
third but the visitors again placed
two scores 10 their credit in the last
inning.
Notes Of the Game.
Those who saw the game yester-
day believe that Matheson will still
prove a good find for the hill team
as they think he viii be able 10 get
control. His work at third was full
OF merit and he also had two-bag-
ger 20 his credit Brewster pitched a
beautiful game for Hancock and that
team played the best team ban thai
has been seen AT Hurontown this
summer, only one error being chalket
up against the team, while Doubled
stacked up eight errors. The attend
ance was good and Pascoe was IN
umpire.
The score by innings was as FOL

MUNICIPAL LEAGUE
CONVENTION OPENS
Meeting at St. Paul Is Very
Largely Attended.

st. Paul, Aug 24--The fourteenth
annual convention of the League of
American Municipalities opened at
the Auditorium with an attendance OF
delegates far surprising the anticipa-
tion of the officials.
The convention was called to order
by President David e. Heineman OF
Detroit. Mayor H. p. Keller well
coined the delegates and visitors to
st. Paul, assuring them all that the
SANITY City was proud to be host to
such distinguished body of men and
hoping that they would all enjoy
themselves to the limit.
President Heineman then delivered
his annual address, which was replete
with timely suggestions for the future
work of the league, as we'll as telling
of the things accomplished during last
year.
Then followed the annual report OF

BUT ONE REDEEMlNG FEATURE
Cooler Weather Only Change in stua-
tion in Montana.

Helena, Mont, Aug 24.-Cooler
weather is the only redeeming feature
of the fire situation in Montana. Dense
smoke still is spreading over the state
and now extends as far east as Boze-
man and Lewiston and to the Cana
dian line on the north. Ashes are
falling, but fortunately they are dead,
otherwise the damage wrought would
be overwhelming.
The railroad situation is anything
but assuring, in fact grows worse with
succeeding reports, which tell Of
tracks and bridges being burned out
on the Northern Pacific, the Great
Northern and the Chicago, Milwaukee
and Puget Sound line.
A report from Bozeman says that
the fire in the Gallatin national forest
still Is spreading in the direction of
Yellowstone park and that unless rain
comes there will be little chance to
check its progress, although more
than 200 men are trying to stay it's
