NELS moe BREAKS
LEG in MATCH
CHRISTINE WRESTLER HIS LEG
BROKEN BEFORE HE HAS BEEN
ON THE MAT A MINUTE-ET-
LAND WON BY DEFAuLT-oLE
MOE WINS.

In less than one minute after time
had been called in the wrestling
match between Nels Moe of Christine
and T. B. Etland OF Stanley, which
was billed for Christine, Saturday
night, Moe went down on the mat with
a broken leg.
A big bunch of mat fans turned out
at Christine Saturday night to see the
bouts scheduled for the evening and
witness Etland's efforts to throw the
local grappler twice in one hour
The two men were not slow at get
ting to work and Etland, who was to
take on the aggressive part of the
game, secured body hold on Moe.
He lifted the Christine grappler off
the mat and Moe, desiring to get down
where he could play a strong de-
tense game, made no objections and
did not resist.
The two men went down together,
Moe rolled and Etland got his knee
in between his two legs. Noes right
ankle twisted on the mat, there was a
crack and he called for time, his leg
being broken. Discovering the ma
ture of the accident the match was
awarded to Etland by the referee.
The local physician was out Of town
and efforts to get doctor from Alb
ercrombie proved fruitless. 1t was not
until three hours after the accident
that a surgeon reached the bedside
of the injured mat man and reduced
the fracture.
An inprovised stretcher was made
out of door and Moe was carried to
his home where he will be confined
for several weeks.
The sporting editor of The Forum,
who refereed the matches at Christine
Saturday night, called on Moe Sunday
and found him to be resting nicely
with his right leg in big plaster
paris cast. The fibula was cracked
about half way down and the tibia
was broken just above the ankle.
In the preliminary match ole Moe
won from Hicks, a young wrestler from
Hickson. Both men were rather in
experienced and were not able to use
the holds that they secured. How
ever, they were scrappy and put UP
some good sport. Neither man was
able to secure fall and after forty
three minutes, Hicks forfeited the
bout and match to Moe.
A dance was held after the match at
which the young people of Christine
had a most enjoyable time. An organ
and two violins furnished the music
for the dancers.

VALLEY CITY TO
GET BALL PLAYERS
MANAGER OF VALLEY CITY BASE
BALL TEAM GOES TO THE TWIN
CITIES TO SECURE SOME FAST
PLAYERS-WILL HAVE ABOUT
THE SAME TEAM.

j. A. McDiarmid, manager of the
Valley City baseball team, was in the
city Saturday evening and called on
the sporting editor of The Forum. He
was en- route to st. Paul, where he ex-
poets to secure few good ball play
ers.
MIR. McDiarmid said, in talking of the
Valley City situation: You may say
for me that Valley City will have the
fastest team in the state this year.
Our lineup will not be materially
changed from the one we carried last
season. Only the weak men of the
nine have been dropped, and feel cet-
tain that l will be able to get good
men in their places.
Right now I am en- route to st.
Paul, where 1 will confer with a num-
Der of good men. Before returning
home 1 hope to secure their contracts,
provided they are what l want, and /
think they are. Several other teams
in the state are also after these play
ers, and 1 will consider myself for
tunate- if / am able to land these men.
CAS- yet our schedule has not been
prepared. That can come later. Right
now l am looking for men who will
make the fans of Valley City sit up
and take notice, and it will surely be
great baseball team. We will have
about sixty games during the season
and will take on the fastest aggrega-
tions from the two Dakotas and Min
nesota."
Manager McDiarmid will take the
EolH ~, sgs. t.
occupy the mound at many Of the prin-
cipal games of the season, and when
not pitching will hold down an out
field job and thus be able to direct
the team from the inside.

LIKES new RULE
SAYS ITS FAIR

West Baden. Ind, April L.
Tommy Leach who has been anything
but player for records during his ca
reer on the diamond, approves the
change in scoring rules which gives a
hit to the batsman who hunts for the
purpose of advancing base runner
when an error is made in handling the
ball which results in both batsman and
runner being safe. He expresses eur
prise that the rule was not made long
ago.
1.-The general system of scoring
seems to be based on common sense,
furnishing a logical reason for every
debit and credit marked up for a play
err" he said today, "but / could never
understand why players record
should suffer on account of the fuke
of a player on an opposing team in
handling a ball batted to him. II the
batter lays down a bunt for the pur-
pose of advancing a runner and is re-
tired at first, he is credited with a sac
rifice and is not charged with time
at bat. That is just and fair. But
heretofore, IL an infielder has fumbled
or made bad throw, or one of the
basemen has made an error in han
ding the bunt, great many scores, 1
understand, have charged the batter
with time at bat. That is palpably
unfair, since the misplay makes his
bunt more beneficial to his team than
If 1t had been fielded perfectly and re-
suited in his retirement. Under the
old custom there was not much en-
couragement to bunt for players who
were ambitious to show up well in
the oficial averages"
Pirates Are Gentlemen.
The gentlemanly behavior of the
Pittsburg players is being commented
upon here as it is generally in every
city they visit. There are never any
rowdies in the pirate outfit. and it is
not purely accidental that Pittsburg
always secures a high class of ball
players. President Dreyfuss has de-
clared on more than one occasion that
he would not keep the best player in
the business on his payroll II he was a
boozefighter, and Fred Clarke has al
ways, by both precept and example,
maintained a high standard of conduc.
among the men under his charge.
There are certain fixed rules for the
| department. OII the Helus winch are en-
forced as strictly as the code which
regulates their conduct on the dia-
mond.
1t is not necessary to tell the 1911
recruits how to behave themselves
Their conduct has been exemplary
Yet 1t would be difficult for a man
to go wrong at West Baden even IL he
had the inclination and desire. There
is not much here but the hotel and the
spacious grounds that surround it, and
at night 1t is virtually isolated. It Is
impossible to establish long distance
| telephone connection with the outside
/ world after 8 o'clock at night, and II
is seldom that the telegraph ONCE Is
open after that hour When kilograms
come during the day no special effort
is made to locate the person to whom
they are addressed. The messages are
tucked away in the guests box by the
hotel clerk, and the guests all keer

Great Falls, (Mont.,) Tribune: The
birth of child to the Canadian wo-

for the murder Of her husband, but
who had her sentence committed to life
imprisonment by the governor gener-
al of Canada, as a result of request
from thousands who signed a petition
circulated by women in the United
States, calls attention to the fact that
there is a growing suspicion that the
dear people were worked by the yell
low press, aided by hysterical women.

to save the neck of this woman. While

other side of the story could not be

more about ii. The Toronto Star.
which has been at some pains to look
up the facts, makes the following COM
ment:
THE stir that has been raised about
Mrs. Neapolitana, who has been sem
fenced to death at the Canadian 500,
is largely the work of American journ-
alism. The story which has been wir-
ed all over the United States. working

adopted because of sensational journ-
alism. 1t would seem, in fact, that
Neapolitana was better man than
his wife was a women. The story that
she killed her husband because he
wanted her to live a life OF shame will
not bear examination. She was beaten
by her husband because she had lived
with another man while he was
away, and more than once had she
offended in this way. In short, her
infidelities caused her to be in fear of
her husbands anger and it is not an
easy task which yellow Journalism
sets itself in trying to make virtuous
heroine Of such woman. II she valu-
ed her honor, her conduct gives us no
hint Of It, She betrayed her husband
repeatedly and continually, as the evil
dence and her own admissions prove,
and when her guilt enraged him until
he beat her she killed him with an axe
as he slept in his dishonored home.
Not good material out of which to make
heroine, yet the American journals
have succeeded WELL"

STATE DENTAL
BOARD HERE TODAY
STATE DENTAL EXAMINERS ARE
HOLDING SESSION IN THE CITY
THIS AFTERNOON AT THE
GARDNER = PASSING ON Ex-
ANIMATION PAPERS.

The state board OF dental examiners
is holding meeting in Fargo this aft
ernoon at the Gardner hotel at the
call Of it's president. DIR. Brownlee,
Of Devils Lake. The meeting is a
special one, having been called for the
purpose of looking into the legality
of the recent dental examinations
One of the laws passed at the last
session of the legislature and which
went into effect July last, provides
that every registered dentist in the
state shall be graduate of some ac-
credited dental college before he can
obtain a certificate to practice. The
board held its regular semi-annual
examination July Is. and at that time
many Of the applicants had petition
ed the board for the examination prior
to July /. Many of these applicants
were permitted to take the examina-
ton.
AS Attorney General Miller has
stated that all applicants who took
the examination who are not gradu-
ates of dental colleges can hardly be
eligible to practice under the new law,
the board was called to meet in Far
go today to sift the matter.
1t is expected that at this time also,
the papers of the candidates will be
graded and passed upon and announce
ment will be made OF the outcome Of
the examination soon.
