TOOK BOTH GAMES
Crystal Falls Cleaned I'D on lshpeming Last
Saturday and Sunday
STANDING OF TEAMS

The base ball games played here last
Saturday and Sunday between the lsh'
peming team and the local were well
attended and the outcome has done a
great deal TO revive the hope OF the
local fans who became detected over
the long losing streak Of the Crystal
Falls team
Saturdays game was an air-tight
affair in which the Hematite city boys
were cleaned up by score OF TO y.
The cause of the victory was Sherman
who was on the mound for the locals
and proved perfect enigma to the
visitors, letting them down with but
one lone hit.
IL was Sherman s first appearance on
the local diamond and he certainly left
a good impression. He struck out ID
men and didn't allow a single pass
during the entire game.
The team played we'll behind Sher-
man and batter Goulett. the Ishpeming
twirler hard. getting ten hit off his
left handed .benders. Geelan was the
star hitter Of the day taking three hits
and base on balls out OF four times
up
Klebs Was the only Tshpeming man TO
register a hit. He got one in fifth in
ming but never got farther than first
base. Only three Ishpeming players
got to first and none Of them succeeded
In getting to second.
The first score came in the third in
ming when McGee trippled and came
home on clean single by Allen.
In the fifth inning Ball singled and
got nome on Sherman hit which was
badly handled
Three scores came in in the eighth.
Geelan singled and after him came
Kagey, Danaher and Ball all with
singles. Danaher got TO third before
the Ishpeming players got down to
earth again.

Base Ball Notes.

Crystal Falls met with bad misfor
tune In the Sundays game. Frank
Ball, our veteran catcher who has done
such good work behind the bat since
the season opened, sprained his ankle
In attempting to steal second in the
seventh inning. 1t was thought at first
that he would have to quit right there
but he showed his pluck by bandaging
his leg and sticking out the next two
innings. He is out OF the game for
the rest OF the season.
Crystal Falls fans have an especial
dislike for Burke, the left fielder for
Ishpeming on account of his dirty play
ing. In the last game he deliberately
spiked McGee and Sunday he did the
same thing TO Korbel who was on the
opposite side of the base from him as
he slid In. Burke slid feet first and as
he neared his man he raised his right
foot and plunged IL at Korbels 8 hands.
We were real good fellows before we
began winning some games. Now
Crystal Falls is awful.
lspheming today and tomorrow.
The boys are going to make an heroic
effort TO win at least one OF the games.

CRYSTAL FAILS WAS SURROUNDED
BY FLAMES WEDNESDAY,
farmers WERE BURNED OUT
John Dawson Lost Everything on His
Place. Even His Dog-Ssveral Mines
Threatened.

Last Wednesday was terrible day
for forest fires all over the northern
country. Crystal Falls had its troubles
and some very severe fires occurred
about here. Someone set hre In the
farming settlement south OF the city
and in a very short time John Daw-
sons place was covered by the fire and
everything on the place licked up by
the flames. Even Mr.. Dawson's dog
lost its life In the tire and at one time
Mr.. Dawson himself felt that he would
never get out alive.
What crops were lett on his place
were badly scorched after the build
ings were consumed and then the fire
spread to the farms OF Tom Wills and
August Lower adjoining. All Of Mr..
Lowers crops were destroyed but he
saved his buildings although at one
time the fire burned up to within a
few feet OF his house and some Of the
logs were scorched.
Mr.. Wills loss was mainly In crops.
he managed TO save his buildings.
The farm OF John Tromblay was next
visited. but not much damage done
there.
The same day the passenger train for
Amasa set FIRE TO the big marsh just
north OF the Conlin farm at Balsam.
In just O few minutes the flames were
rolling terribly A telephone call was
sent to the city tor aid and Amasa was
also asked TO help. The grading crew
was taken from the Bristol and run up
TO the scene Forty men fought hre
all the afternoon and managed TO save
the buildings and other property. The
lire was making tast for the farmers in
west Of Balsam but the rain that night
dampened them down 80 that they
could be stopped the next day,
Another big fire threatened the
Armenia mine and the men from that
property and the Macdonald fought
flames all the afternoon. The fire
worked west from the swamp out there
and late in the evening the Crystal
Falls .mino was in danger and crew
fought fire there until the rain started.

Mr.. Sherman did not give the pres

eral situation Nj Sherman holds the
reputation of never predicting republi-

that ,he republican party will be con-

Representative Anthony was not

the democrats would gain two seats

loss would be due to insurgency, how

stay in the parry and work for the can

Mr.. Anthony told the president that
the Kansas platform which is soon to
be framed at a party council. would
warmly endorse his administration.
He hoped the platform might have
something to say about the tarirr.
