STANDING OF THE CLUBS

From the sublime to the ridiculous,
from even, heady, steady base ball on
Friday to don t-care how many-runs-
thev-get game on Saturday, was the
depressing step that the Danville team
took over Friday night.
One can scarcely stretch the i'm
agination to realize that it was the
same team giving Nanticoke ID to 4
score on Saturday that the day before
had lambasted Kutz for 10 runs and
errorlessly held the Mans to one earn
ed tally.
70 none of the ordinary vagaries OF
base ball can Saturdays farce be at
tributed. 1t was not an example of the
slump to which all teams are suscepti-
BILE. 1t was just concerted willing
ness to assume the role of door mat
for Nanticoke. Honest effort that fails
is to be lauded every time, but refus-
al to try should be hit on the head
whenever it appears.
OF the Danville players who had a
chance to get actively into Saturdays
game but three stand out as the only
ones who played as if they had some
interest in winning the contest. They
are Captain Nipple, Pitcher Rowe and
Catcher Dooley, who worked hard to
play. their own positions to the best of
their ability and encouraged the rest
of the team to do their share.
The story of the activities if these
men very nearly tells Danville's part
of the story The five Danville hits
were divided between them. Nipple
scored two of Danville's runs and
brought in a third; Rowe scored the
other one.
Both sides were retired in order in
the first In Nanticoke half of the
second Shemanski opened with a Texas
Lacquer into centre. Walsh struck out
and Smith was hit by pitched ball,
putting men on first and second. Nor
ris drove a grounder to Livengood who
threw to second, the ball going high
over Umlauf's head. The Nanticoke
ground rules stipulate that on pass
ed ball a runner can 60 as far as he
likes, and Shemanski scored on this
misplay. Davis then sent a sizzler
across the third bag into left field,
which Mackert fielded with such pro-
nounced Indifference that both Smith
and Morris scored. Captain Nipple
promptly benched the apathetic Mack
ert and sent Ainsworth to do relief
duty in left jenkins laid grounder
to Veith who made an overthrow to
first which allowed Davis to tally.
The innings ended when Jenkins was
caught off second and Shelton famed.
After that innings the game went to
pot 1t is only fair to say that Rowe
worked hard, but he was given the
shadiest kind of support. No earnest
effort was made to stay Nanticoke' S
mounting score, nor did Danville
players strive conscientiously to de-
posit local tallies at the plate.
a handicap which could not be help
ed was Ainsworth in left field. The
big pitcher is not trained to trot in
the far reaches, and. through no fault
of his many balls got away from him
that would have been nailed by an
experienced man.
Danville hit in hard luck all during
the game. The first innings can be TAX

engood and Nipple all drove long flies

Why He Doesn't Wear Hat.

KANSAS CITY, Oct. Guy With
ers, manager of life insurance COM
pany, has not worn a hat in the sum-
mer for five years. He is several dol
lars ahead and has had lot of en-
joyment out of it. He does not go
without hat, he says. to keep from
taking cold, nor to keep from getting
bald, although both of these things are
accomplished by it. He does it be-
cause he likes it, and he says if you
will try it you will like it, too.
The chill winds of autumn do not
drive him to the halter, but when
winters blasts are here he does not
scorn tn protection Of headwear.
Withers caught the habit from
friend in Boston, whom he visited five
years ago.

CHINESE WOMEN RESTLESS
Tendency to Stray From Beaten Path
of Their Grandmothers.

of Their Grandmothers.
The modern woman's tenGsncy 10 do
improper things is evidently resist
less. Even Chinese women, with their
bandaged feet, are getting it. Miss
Wai-Chi Chau of the School for the
Blind at Canton, China, who visited
New York last week, in the course of
tour she is making for the purpose
of studying methods of teaching the
blind in the Western countries, admits
that the conduct Of young Chinese
women nowadays is not so commend
able as was the conduct of their grand
mothers.
Many of our young women are mis-
interpreting the word liberty. They
are ahead of the nation in progressive
thought, and they grow impatient of
restrictions which it is not yet safe 10
ignore. They believe they have the
right to do what they like-to go out
alone at night, for instance, just like
men. 1t won't do, because our streets
are narrow and dark, and have too
many men in them who are still with
out the respect for women which |
hope all Chinese men will have by and
by. But Chinese girls are like the
rest of their sex-the fact that they
live in the Orient doesn't make them
easy to hold"
The Canton School for the Blind in
which Miss Chau teaches was the first
of its kind to be established in China.
1t had a hard struggle until, about a
year ago, Viveroy Chau CHANGED to
visit it with his retinue. So delighted
was he with what he saw and heard
there, the exhibition of handicraft
work of the blind pupils, with their
skill in playing on musical instru-
ments, singing songs and repeating
things from dictation, that he declared
his intention of helping the work. He
made good, too, sending his check the

inquire about the school, and in a
short time enough was contributed to
put up a $4,000 building in place Of
the old rented house and mud huts in
which the pupils used to study and
live.
The new building accommodates
sixty pupils, and there they learn mn.
sic, the branches of an ordinary ed
ucation, how to sew and make baskets
and various other things, and how to
read and write the Chinese characters
by the Braille system.
Miss Chau has visited Egypt, Eng
land, Germany, Switzerland and other
European countries, and before she re-
turns to her work will visit Hawaii
and Japan. She is accompanied on
her tour by Miss Lucy Durham, an
American woman, who has been a
missionary to China for the last eight
years and who is also teacher IN
the school for the blind.-New York

Mr.. AND MRS. EDWIN o. CHAPMAN.
Window II, Redwood Falls 8.

Three loads of foot ball boys. ac-
companied by the three high school
men professors, journeyed to Win
dom early last Saturday morning.
and after a little sightseeing and
dinner, lined up for their game with
the Window boys. Mason won the
toss and defended thel.w goal.
Window kicked off to Redwood, but
on account of the wind our men
missed and a Windomiplayer downed
it on the 5-yard line, After series
of line plunges and endj'runs, the
opposing team won a chance to try
for goal from the field, and at the
second attempt made it score 3 to O..
In the kick off Redwood received
and reached the 40-yard line before
the quarter was over. In the second
the ball was advanced to within the
opponents 5-yard line, when Red
wood lost on downs. Window took
the ball, but fumbled. Orwell, Red
woods right half, picked the ball up
and ran for a touchdown. A try at
goal failed score 5 to 3.
Window kicked off to Redwood
and was advanced to the As yard line
by Smith. By a series of end runs
and fakes, the ball was advanced to
the 15-yard line and Baldwin made a
neat drop kick for goal. Score to
3. The half closed with both teams
playing even. The third quarter
was an even pull. In the fourth
quarter, Window came back to re
gain victory from defeat and by end
runs and line bucks secured touch
down, kicked goal, and the score
was 9 to 8.
Window kicked off to Redwood
and the ball was downed in Red
woods 20-yard territory. With only
a yard needed. Smith tried to gain
the coveted ground, but in vain.
After two plays, Window advanced
the ball about 5 yards. tried for goal
and succeeded. Score, IL to 8.
The kickoff was given to Window
and the ball was we'll in Window s
territory when time was called.
The Redwood boys took defeat
manfully, sbut regretted that Win
dom declined their offer of return
game at Redwood Falls.

of a Halloween party. Two ghosts
greeted the visitors at the doors as
they entered. Jack lanterns
and witches were common decora-
ton. The lower hall was prepared
in homelike manner. The fortune
teller proved to be very interesting
to some, and thecontortionist was the
laugh maker of the evening. The
teachers all laughed until, well,
they can smile yet, but don't laugh
very much. After several games
were played and refreshments
served the pa ~ty broke up at wee
small hour of the morning.

FIRST POLITICAL RALLY.
Hon. 7. II. Eustis, Senator 1ague and
A. 0. GinimeStad the Speakers.

The first political rally of this
campaign held in this city, last
Friday night. attracted fair-sized
audience and those who came out
were well repaid.
Judge Laudon presided. and in
introducing the first speaker got
even with Chairman Cailaghan, in
whose stead he appeared, by telling
the audience that the latter was so
modest that he believed the only
way he ever found wife was by
getting the proposal from the lady
herself. The chairman then intro
duced Senator Clague, saying that
the people at each campaign expect
ed their representatives to do their
bidding in matters of government.
and were entitled to knowrhow their
officials administered their trust.
Senator Clague took his cue from
the chairman to the extent of agree
ing with him that the public official
who did not truly represent lis
constituents should get down and
out as soon as he made the discov-
cry, and cited McGleary and Tawney
as examples of able men who had
tried in vain to make their constitu-
ents line up with their ideas and had
to be ordered out by the voters
when they themselves failed to va
cate. The speaker then proceeded
to call attention to his own attitude
to good roads. taxation and other
state matters. He strongly endorsed
the good roads constitutional amend
ment and urged voters to register
their votes in favor of that measure,
and to carefully examine all Of the
amendments. He incidentally stated
that he was opposed to the forestry
amendments, but only as a matter
of personal opinion. The senator
also took occasion to thank the vot-
ers of this county for having always
treated his candidacy for various
offices in this county most gener-
ously in the past and asked that
they make their wants known to
him in regard to legislation in case
he should again be returned to
office.
A. O. Gimmestad was the last of
the local speakers to be introduced.
and after explaining that he had
stopped over here on his way home
from campaigning trip and was
not intending to speak at length,
he made plain statement of some
OF the things he stood for. among
them being a hearty agreement with
Senator Clague as regards good
Dads. careful expenditure of the
states money in the matter of ap-
preparations, the encouragement of
the manufacture of farming ma
chinery at the state plant at Still
water, as a curb to the machinery

not the most promising, and was
worse than others; he has fought his
way to influence and an honored
position, while many of those who
have had an equal chance are prob.
ably still herding cattle. The Sc
