SALT LAKE TEAM IS
AFTER RED" TONER
Manager Mike Donovan of Local
Nine May Secure the Star
Ogden Pitcher.

Negotiations were begun Monday
night by Manager Mike Donovan OF the
Salt Lake team looking to securing the
services OF Red" Toner. the star twrler
OF tho Ogden team, Toner is one OF the
best pitchers in tho State league and.
with him added to the local team, Dono-
ran rs convinced that he could wiz all
me rest OF the games the schedule.
The Salt Lake boys go 10 Wellsvile
wednesday, whore they will play the
star team Of that city. On Thursday
Salt Lake. plays the Logan Boosters at
Logan. These two teams are easily the
pest of the teams In the northern part
of the state, and victories over these
Two teams would mean much for Salt
Lake Toner will probably pitch against
Wellsville and Little against Logan.
? After After considerable, difficulty, the Salt
inheld, and at present the team is strong
both In the field and at the bat. The
weak spot is in the pitchers box. Man
ager Donovan has traded Hummel to
Murray for Pitcher Little, youngster
who has speed TO burn and nice. as
sortment OF twisters; Donovan believes
" he can secure Toner he will be in
clover. Enorts are being made by Dono-
van to get in touch with Williams, the
n recent trHOut. and Singleton, the Pro-
po pitcher. With this quartette OF pitch
Frs. Manager Donovan plans 10 take the
team Tor tour OF the state.
The surprising Improvement In form
shown by the Occidentals in their recent
games is causing Murray no little un-
easiness. Should the negroes continue |
their winning streak there is danger OF
their taking tie pennant away from |
Murray. The Occidentals and Ogden are |
tied for second place in the league. six |
games behind Murray. The Occidentals |
are playing better ball than Ogden and
appear 10 have lighting chance for the
pennant Murray is trying to strengthen
its inield by securing Shortstop Means
from Idaho Falls. 1t doesn't want to
take chances losing its grip on the
at this late stage.
On next Saturday Murray playes Salt
Lake AT Walkers field and the Occi-
dentals play Ogden at Ogden. On Sun
day Sale Lake and the Occidentals will
meet al Walkers field and Ogden and
Murray at Ogden. II is just possible
that Saturdays game between Murray
and Salt Lake will be transferred to
Murray.

YOUNGER KETCHEL
QUITE A PUC|L|ST
Stanley's Little Brother De-
clares He Will Soon Be As
pirant for Championship.

DETROIT, Aug. S.-Just now Stanley
ketchel Is middleweight champion and
the sole representative OF the Ketchel
family in the pugiIistic world But with
in few years there may be another
champion in the game bearing the fnm-
lily name The younger edition Is Leon
kctchel, the l5-year old brother of the
champion, and he Ia clever boy with
the gloves.
Up TO tho present time Leon has con-
fined himself entirely to boxing at various
athletic clubs In his homo city. Grand
Rapids, but even in these little bouts he
has shown himself in the role of "a knock
out artist, One evening he disposed OF
threo boys at one OF the clubs. He has
a right that is dangerous. even at this
stage OF the game, and like his older
brother Is always willing to get in ana
mix It.
Naturally, Leon Ketchel is very much
Interested in the career OF his older
brother Last summer he was taken TO
the coast and was in camp during the
with Billy Papke.
There Is never a mill in which Stanley
Is mixing IL that he does not camp In d
newspaper office awaiting returns.
AL the time of the recent battle be-
tween his brother and Sam Langford Leon
was more Interested than ever Reports
varied on that battle, and he happened
10 get one that had Stanley Il beaten
man. He read the reports without
word. His eye filed with tears Coming
to the end he looked up, forced u smile
and said; well, I guess it's up to me
to keep championship In the Ketchel
family"
AT present Leon weighs about l2O
pounds. His pugllistc aspirations do not
make hit with Stanley, however. The
champion has one object in view more
than any other. That is 10 send the kid
TO college. He is bright youngster and
win graduate from high school within
TWO years. He likes the college idea,
but back of il there is the yearning for
a ring career AT any rate. he is not |
overlooking any bets, and about the time
he is ready for college he will be in shane |
10 enter the ring. Then the decision win |
nave to be made. IL II is for the ring |
the hume Of Netchel should continue for |
many more years, for the boy ool;s good |
OF rarity in pugilistic annals |
AS rule fighters do not go by families |
Jack Jeffries was n joke as a fighter: |
Phil McGovern Isn't near Terry's class
Jack and Mike, the Sullivan twins, were
about on a. par In their classes while
Monte Attell couldn't como near hang
ing on TO the bantamWeiGht as did |
brother Abe to the featherweight crown
But Just now the younger Ketchel looks
good and should so high II lie decides to
enter the ring in earnest

It is stated that in the 10Th Gen.
fury the average length Of life in Eu-
rope was 10 years, whereas now it
is 40 years, or the length of life
has doubled in the last 400 years,
and the most important factors
which have contributed to this in
crease have been improved num-
icipal sanitation, such as scientific
sewerage disposal, pure water sup
ply, regulation and inspection of
food, and improved housing of all
classes. It is to be hoped that
everyone will turn out and vote in
favor of the proposition, and ap-
point himself a committee of one
to see that his neighbor does the
same: We will all certainly make
no mistake in voting Eyes"

DIR. RAINS SPEAKS
ON SEWER QUESTION

Editor of the Tribune:-
The citizens of this city will be
given a chance to'vote on an amend
ment to the City Charter by spe-
cial election to be held August 2,
providing for an improved sewer
system for this city. We all know
the present conditions of Foot
Lake. The lake speaks for itself
and it speaks loud. Not only the
future prosperity Of the city is at
stake but the health of the COM
munity. It we keep on waiting
until an epidemic of typhoid fever
strikes us, the expense to the in
dividual from sickness, loss of
time etc. and also to the city at
large would be enormous. AS was
found at Mankato, Minnesota. in
1908, with its 500 cases, and also at
Breckenridge. Minnesota, with it's
800 cases, some years earlier. At
present the shores of the lake and
also the open ditch on the south
part of the city are simply breed
ing places for flies, which are
the great carriers of disease.
Screen doors and windows are the
best protection from them, and for
tunately, there are but few houses
in this city which are not thus pro-
tected. The natural drainage for
all parts Of the city is to the south,
but on account of the proximity of
Foot Lake to the business and older
residential portions. it has been
made Use of as an outlet. But all
that portion of the city lying
south of Becker avenue, both east
and west. will have to 20 into the
county ditch. And as the indica-
tions are that in the near future
that portion of the city will be
built up, the ditch will have to be
