sOPERTON TAKES BOTH
GAMES OF DOUBLE-BILL
Green Bay Rivals Defeated on 3rd by
Score of 80; 4th by 9-3.

And still it continues! What? Sop
erton's winning streak of course. This
was forcibly demonstrated Sunday anC
Monday, when they loped away with
both games of double-header with the
Green Bay Rivals by scores of 80 anG
9-3.
The game Sunday was an interesting
game throughout, there being scores
made only in the 4th and 5th innings.
Both pitchers were going at top speed
but Soperton punching two hits in the
5th, coupled with errors sent two
men over the pan, these scores proving
more than enough to win the game.
Stewart pitched good ball, giving only
hits, making Is men walk the strike
out path and allowing only one man to
see 3rd.
Quinlan struck his old time batting
form when he laced the sphere out in
right field for a homer in the 3rd, but
as luck would have it none were on
bases so he had to make the round trip
alone.
Soderton was materially strengthened
by the addition of O'Neil at 3rd. His
playing at that sack was all that could
be expected for the first time on our
grounds.
A crowd of about 800 turned out to
witness the game and all expressed
themselves as highly pleased with the
game and also with the desired absence
of rag chewing on the part of both
teams.
With Revenge written on every face
the Rivals turned out Monday deter
mined to take the last game Of the
double header. But as inning after
inning went by with Foote the old rel
liable southpaw going at his winning
gait, they lost courage and decided that
the ''Rubes of the Backwoods" knew
more about the game than they did.
Foote pitched winning ball all the
way through and although wild at
times, was there in the pinches and
had the Rivals at his mercy at all
stages of the game.
On the other hand Kreft did not
prove as great a puzzle as the day be-
fore and was pounded out for total OF
9 hits, these hits coming when hits
meant runs.
Chance was there with the mighty
swat, putting the ball to the woods in
left field for a home run in the in.

TORGER SALVESEN- SERIOUSLY In
JURED In AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENT
AT MENOMINEE, MICH, LAST
WEEK THURSDAY.
DR.. NOER OF WABENO CALLED TO
MENoMINEE IN CONSULTA-
TON FRIDAY.
Condition is Much Improved.

According to the reports received
from the hospital at noon today, Tor
ger Salvesen, who was injured by an
automobile driven by Charles Berger,
Chauffeur employed by M. B. Lloyd,
has no chance of recovery and is hard
ly expected to live throughout the day.
1t was found upon careful examination
that in addition to the broken ribs
which were sustained, that he was hurt
internally, which will ultimately result
in his death.
Yesterday afternoon he made state
ment of the facts in the case, in which
he stated that at the time of the ac-
dident he was watching Tideman get
on the street car and had his mind CEN
tered upon that one thing and did not
notice the automobile until it was near
him. He stated that the first he knew
of it was that he saw the front wheel
was going to hit him and he became
confused and jumped to escape, but
was struck by the fender or mud guard
and knocked to the ground.
AS to the speed of the automobile
he was unable to state, and further
more was unable to state whether he
was standing still at the time of the ac-
cident or was walking.
Last night at the hospital he was
expected to die before morning, but
pulled through the night. The doctors
attribute his holding out as long as he
has to his strong constitution. He was
very strong man physically and is
making strong fight against death,
but the doctors say it is hopeless and
he cannot live twenty-four hours, and
if he lives over twelve hours it will be
owing to his strong constitution.
Salvesen is conscious at all times and
knows everything that is going on in
the room. Early this morning, in talk
ing to COUNT Clerk Hansen and Mrs.
Salvesen, he expressed a wish that
DR.. P J. Noer of Wabeno, Wis, be
called in attendance and in compliance
with his wish long distance telephone
communication was had with him at
his home. He stated that he was will
i ling to make the trip down here and
an automobile was sent for him. He
will arrive sometime this afternoon.
Mrs. Salvesen, the wife of the in
jured man, has been in constant atten-
dance at the hospital since the accident
occurred, and is lending all the aid pos
sible in making his few short hours as
easy for him as possible. County Clerk
Hansen was also in attendance with
him during the night, giving any aid
that he was called on to render.
Mr.. and Mrs. Salvesen came to Men
ominee about two years ago and have
resided here since that time. They
have one child, baby who is only
eighteen months old. He has several
brothers and sisters in this city and
they have been in attendance as much
as possible since he was injured. Mr..
Salvesen is AZ years old.-Friday Men

Hope is now held out for the recov-
cry of Torger Salvesen, who NsAs struck
by an automobile Thursday From the
time of his injury until yesterday it
was thought that he could not live over
"a hours, but his condition improved
considerable during the night and if
nothing unforeseen happens he will re-
cover.
DR.. P. j. Noer of Wabeno who was
called in consultation at the request of
Salvesen, reached here yesterday af-
ternoon in an automobile and made his
examination upon his arrival. He also
made another examination this morn
ing and pronounced Salvesen out of
danger unless he has a setback of
some kind. DR.. Noer returned home
this morning.
No one is permitted to enter the
