25TH ANNIVERSARY OF
BlGWooDs CHURCH.

The twenty-fifth anniversary of
Rigwoods church, of which Rev, ST.
gurd Olsen is the pastor, was celebrat-
ed Sunday, July 3rd. The weather was
ideal, and the celebration was in keep
ing with it: Early in the forenoon
people from all quarters were seen on
their way to church, and the church
was soon filled to overlowing. Rev.
J. A. Urness, who served as pastor
about twenty years ago, preached the
sermon in the forenoon on Ps. 65, rs.
The text and the sermon were very
appropriate for the occasion. The
history of the congregation was read
10y its secretary, Mr.. O.. p. Oseth. The
congregation was organized August 4,
1882, consequently nearly twenty
eight years ago, and its first pastor
was Rev. J. A. Ofstedahl, of North
field, Minnesota. The following pas
tors have later served the congrega-
tion, namely, F. Jorgensen, J. A.
Urness, P. A. Nykreim, L. M. Skunas,
n. F. Kile, T. A. Hagen, c. J. Nolstad
and S. Olsen. Rev. A. Martinsen, a
missionary also spoke.
After the ladies society had served
free dinner, the people in attendance
again met in the church. Addresses
were given by the former pastors of
the congregation, who We're present,
namely, F. Jorgensen, Of Grand Forks,
p. A. Nykreim, of Park River, N. D.,
T. A. Hagen, of Robbin Thereupon
spoke Rev. H. Skyberg, of Fisher,
Mimi, who dedicated the church, July
Is, 1902, and finally the secretary of
the Board of Missions, of the United
Lutheran church, Rev. NJ. Saeterlie.
The addresses contained important
scripture truths, and were listened to
with the closest attention. The many
beautiful songs sung by the choir of
the Oslo church and couple OF songs
sung by Mr.. and Mrs. Flaten, added
greatly to the interest of the program
TO the choir, so ably directed by Mr.
John Espeseth, is due great credit
and also to Mr.. and Mrs. Flaten.

The lowest rank held by medical Of.
fcers is that of first lieutenant. The
medical lieutenant gets $4,000 per an
mum. or $166.66 monthly. At the end
of three years he is promoted to cap
tain and receives S2.4OO year. In two
years he receives an increase of 10 per

The Bald Eaole's Mast.

Among birds the home of the bald
eagle is perhaps the most striking, pos
si5ly because of the majesty of the
bird itself. 1t appeals to the imagina-
ton. Built Of huge sticks loosely in
terwoven and situated on some lofty
and inaccessiblejledge, with the bones
Of the eagles victims scattered round
about it, it gives proper setting to
the stern and savage character of it's
builder. Here the eagle reigns su-
preme, and here year after year he and
his mate rear their young. This is
the aerie from which he can scan the
whole countryside and, like the robber
barons Of old. levy toll on all who pass
his door.

No ball player has ever been given
better chance to establish himself
as worthy of holding regular po-
sition on a major league team than
Wade Killifer, and yet 1t seems that
he has been found wanting. In the
face of his failure TO hit he has been
kept in the game day after day In the
hope that he would improve in this
respect, but the unofficial averages
which give him a percentage of ISL
give silent evidence that killifer Is
still too weak with the bat TO be OF
any material assistance.
In his effort to develop kiliifer Nc
Aleer has undoubtedly sacrificed sew
eral ball games. There are other
PLAYERS on the bench who could have
filled the position more satisfactorily
but McAleer wanted TO give the
youngster fair chance, which he
has certainly done.
There was a period when Killifer
showed a flash, and it seemed doubt
ful then If Cunningham. the much
touted, could take his place. That
doubt. however, has since been dis

moment. Turner was ON Tor rather
near third with two men out. Lajoie
hit a fly to Mcintyre which was
gracefully caught, retiring the side.
Turner, however, believed that only
two were out and tried to turn Larry's
drive into a sacrifice fly by scoring
from third.
Not deigning to return to third, he
stole about ten feet and sprinted for
the plate. Mcintyre fell into the trap
and slammed the ball home with all

to throw to the third station inasmuch

That.

CHICAGO, Sept. 1.-THE Tigers
lost no time in getting runs of the
White Sox on the fair Sabbath, max
ing two in the opening inning. After
that no Tiger crossed the plate. and
no more runs were required because
OF the excellence of George Mullin 5
pitching.
Mullin kept the Chicagos TO couple
of hits which were spread over two
portions. French got a single in the
first and persisted trying to make II
into a twobagger. In the second
Meleon got single and that ended
the hitting for Chicago. The White
Sox threatened the plate in the sixth.
Zeider walked and stole. and when
OLeary booted grounder. he dashed
for the plate. He was nipped.
The runs for Detroit came in the
first inning. Davy Jones walked.
OLeary sacrificed Mcintyre lifted a
high fly that Collins and Olmstead
both tried TO get. Collins was laid
out by the collision but resumed play.
Mcintyre being safe Olmstead threw

second. He scored on Sam Crawford 5
