At Tennyson's table once there was
new guest. Dinner over, the butler
having filed this guests glass, placed
the decanter Of port before his master
The talk was on q subject which deep
~ interested Tennyson. As he talked
he drank, and not noticing his friends
empty glass, filed his own till the de-
canter was drained. Then he said:
That was a very good bottle Of port,
don't you think? Shall we have an
other?' And, the guest asserting, the
butler brought in a second decanter,
which went through just the same ex-
perience as the first-Mr. Blank hav-
ing one glass from the butler, and

as before, consuming ell the rest.

44s. salie Cummins for many years
yesterday gave The Journal some ad-
ditional information regarding the
strange woman whose death was an
nounced in yesterdays paper. She
does not believe that Mrs. Cummings
committed suicide. Mrs. Cummings,
says this lady, was addicted to the
use of opium and other drugs and she
either died a natural death or took an
overdose of the drug.
She first knew Mrs. Cummins she
said in 1872 in Denver where the
latter lived with her husband, Prof
Cummins. The professor was a lee
turer and was regarded as a unique
character. Mrs. Cummins is de-
scribed as being at that time hand
some and well-dressed woman, the
possessor of considerable money, and
an investor and trader In mining prop
critics. Prof Cummins was her Sec
ond husband. Her first husband was
named Walton and, it is thought, re
sided in Virginia. Her people are be-
lucky. but her maiden name is not
known.
Mrs. Cummins went to DeFuniak
some IL or Is years ago and since that
time had resided at various points in
West Florida Whether or not her
husband Is yet alive Is not known al
though 1t was thought that he lived
in California efter the couple left
Denver.
Up to last night no arrangements
had been made concerning the funeral
of Aunt" Sallie, who died suddenly
Thursday night, and the body was still
at the undertaking parlors Of T. r.
Pou, where IL was carried imme-
diately after she had been found dead
near the Big Bayou. and no one has
claimed it.
The undertaken, coroner and others
have been endeavoring to locate some
of her relatives, but up to last night
had not been able to get into COM
munication with any of them. In fact,
it is not positively known whether or
not she had any relatives, although it
was reported yesterday afternoon that
she had a sister residing at some
point in Virginia.
1t was rather generally supposed
that the deceased was wealthy, but
1t is not definitely known whether
this is true or not. Her affairs have
not yet been investigated and settled
and 1t is not known what was her
financial condition.

It is great deal more necessary to

may become clogged with dirt, but
they don't absorb the impurities. The
pores Of the bowels do.
There are myriads Of pores in the
bowels, the duty of which is to absorb
the nutriment from food. That's how
we get our nourishment. But If the

BEACH wins The
OPENING GAME

Beach, N. D., May 9.-The baseball
season was opened at Beach when
Sentinel Butte went down to defeat
before the crack Beach team by a score
Of / to 10.
Both teams showed up well and the
pitching honprs were about equal but
the beam work of the home aggrega-
ton was too much for the visitors.
Arthur Tower, who played with Beach
last year. pitched for Sentinel Butte
and pitched a good game but received
poor support. Erdman, who played
with the Ali Stars of Minneapolis last
year, pitched for Beach and held the
visitors safe at all stages Of the game
There were a number Of good plays
pulled off, but the feature was the
home run. hit made by Manager Reed
of the Beach team Beach's fine ball
park was filed to overlooking and the
weather was ideal for the national
game
Beach fans are enthusiastic over the
showing made by their team and great
things are expected of them this sea-
son. Beach intends to let no town in
North Dakota defeat them this year.

WANTS TEAM FOR
OPENING GAME
CITY HAS NEXT MONDAY
SCHEDULED FOR THE OPENING
GAME OF THE SEASON BUT NO
TEAM HAS BEEN BOOKED
ANXIOUS TO SECURE GOOD ONE.

Today all the Valley city baseball
players who will be in the lineup of
the Barnes county capltaI city team ar
rived at Valley City ready for harl
weeks practice before the opening
of the season which is booked for next
Monday. AS yet no team has been
secured for the opening date and the
management is getting anxious le-
garding a suitable opponent for tie
initial battle.
Manager McDiarmid of the Valley
City team is anxious to secure enc Of
the Fargo teams for the opaning
game and 1t is to be hoped that one
of the first class local mines will take
him on for the contest. 1t has been
suggested that one Of the two local
college aggregations take on the game
for next Monday. but that is the date
for the first of the series Of games
between the two institutions.
Valley City is going to have a rip
roaring good team this year. A bunch
Of ex-leaguers will be on the different
corners and the men will know a great
regarding inside baseball. The valley
City Baseball association, which is
backing the team is sparing no pains
to put first class nine on the dia-
mond
Manager McDiarmid will play this
year II his pitching arm is in good
shape 1t Is probable that he will be
seen on the mound at the opening game
OF the season. The bunch Of players
who showed up today all gave exht-
billions of some snappy baseball and
every indication points towards a win
ming team this year.

new PUGILISTIC
CLASS WANTED

Chicago, May S.--Wanted, a new
pugilistic class involving q title to be
contested for the same as other cham
pionships. Competition to be open only
to fighting men scaling between 100
and ITO pounds. Correspondence So
licited by Nate Lewis. manager OF Phil
Echlossberg, Charley White, @. Knock
out Brown, ct al.
Now that Fireman Flynn has crimp-
ed the heavyweight championship as
pirations OF al Kaufman. hitherto la
beled the one best bet among our
white hopes, Lewis rises to demand
the immediate installation OF q new
brigade which will enlist the services
only or boxing talent too hefty for the
recognized mfddleWeight north and not
quite big enough to make a favorable
showing against such brawney cave
men az Jack Johnson.
Flynn, always a gIutton for punish
ment, ready to concede anything in the
weights to cIinch paying match, apt
ly demonstrated the truth OF Lewis
contention when he tackled Kaufman
Friday at Kansas City. The Pueblo
iron man entered the ring outweighed
almost 40 pounds, and the hundreds of
fans congregated about the arena gaz-
ed with pity on their countenances as
the blond Italian squared away after
| the opening gong. X looked like sheer
insanity to pit the chunky flynn
against q known puncher and ring
master such as the native son black
smith.
| For the once all dcpe went BY the

boards when Flynn's bone crushing
right swing connected with Big AIS
jaw. In past performances Flynn had
undergone the heavy IRE. This time
he had his innings, and every round
him as logical candidate for cham
derous opponent to ribbons. The IRE
man won hands down and by the
knockout route, but his victory. one
sided as 1t was, has failed to stamp
him ats logical candidate for cham
pionship milling with the man who
humbled Jeffries.
Lewis Cites His Reason.
That's why Lewis wants another
class established, admitting Flynn,
schlossberg, champion of the army
and navy, Jack Twin Sullivan and
other Hght-heavies. who would seal
their own death warrants any time
they signed articles with Johnson. The
heavyweight division right now seems
to be absolutely devoid of promising
material and prospects for a cham
pionship match between Johnson and
any OF the lesser nearwhite hopes far
from rosy. Hence Lewis argues the
fans and promoters should turn their
attention to the field CHASING directly
beneath the heavy -heavies-the light
heavyweight section.
Just by way Of trying to encourage
this step, Nat proposes to send
Schlossberg against Flynn and the pair
will In all probability get together in
the near future before Cass
Walsh's club at Kansas City, the same
organization that staged the Flynn
Kaufman quarrel.

DEVILS LAKE
TOOK OPENER

Devils Lake, n. D.. May 9.-Devils
Lake opened the baseball season here
with an easy victory over Petersburg,
the maroon suited lads. taking home
the minus end Of an III to o score.
Manager Shaulis sent Caylor to the
firing line and for five innings he kept
the maroons puncturing the atmos-
phere In vain efforts to connect with
his crooks, the net result of their at
tempts being one lonely bingle for a
single base off Caylor. Manke re-
placed Caylor on the mound in the
sixth and heaved them over with his
usual vehemence. One hit was the
best the maroons could do OFF his de-
livery
Petersburg went to bat first and
gave the new recruit Shortstop
Thompson, Little Chief Battle-ax" d
chance to show his mettle. He pulled
down Swensied's fly after a long run
and handling a hard bounder, threw
Bucklow out at first.
Devils Lake crossed the rubber with
eight talleys in the first, one In the
fourth and two in the fifth.
At no time did the visitors look
dangerous, and only twice were mer,
on bases.
