FAST GAMfFOR SUNDAY
Royalton to Meet Locals at
Athletic Park in
First Clash

That Little Falls fandom need not
journey away from home to sec q
baseball game, the management of
the local club has cancelled the game
that was to be played at Brainerd
next Sunday afternoon with the team
they so disastrously beat last Sunday,
and will take on the fast Royalton
bunch at Athletic park instead.
Doty is pitching great ball for the
down river boys this season, with the
reliable Joe Newman behind the bat.
and but very few hits are so far this
season being made OFT his delivery.
Royalton beat Foley this season, and
although losing out to St. Cloud last
Sunday by the score Of to 2, Royal
ton got hits to St. Clouds 2.
Sundays game will undoubtedly be
a hard one to gamble on. and it
most likely will develop into a
pitchers battle, with the two big
south paws, Dominick and Doty slam
ming them IN.
A record attendance should be on
hand to see these two old rival teams
clash. Royalton rooters will come up
strong.

HAVE BAD AUTOMOBILE ACCT.
DENT.

Manager T. g. Gordon of the Little
Falls Water Power company ana wife
and two daughters figured in an acci-
dent last Saturday afternoon at about
5 80 O'Clock, which came within an
ace Of being very disastrous and atten.
dant with fatalities.
Mr.. Gordon was backing the
machine, a 40 horsepower Velie, out
of the Little Falls Plumbing & Cycle
company's garage on First avenue
southeast, after having some minor in
juries to it, sustained at the ball park
that afternoon as result of running
into a Ford car, attended to, when in
stead Of putting on the brakes as he
had Intended to, he opened the throttle
wide and the machine started full
speed for the ravine just across the
street. Before 1T could take the fatal
leap and turn turtle as was expected
by those who witnessed the accident,
MIR. Gordon turned the steering gear
just enough so that 1t struck the corner
Of the cid court house building across
the street, breaking the front window
and doing considerable damage. The
car sustained damages to the extent OF
about $500 to the tonneau, but no ore
was injured

GIANT GRIP T00SnKO Sh
Large Capital Behind the
Concern Which Will Be
Greatly Enlarged

Negotiations which have been
carried on during the past week by
parties representing Oshk osh, Wlscon-
sin capital we're closed Wednesday
evening for the purchase of the Giant
Grip Horse Shoe company plant OF this
city, and it is now being shipped to
its new home at Oshkosh. It is
expected to have it all packed and
shipped by Saturday.
Inc personel of the new owners of
the horse shoe company is: G.. NJ.
DeLany, president; H. d. DeLany,

Lyden, secretary; G. w. Geo. Everhart,
treasurer all of Oshkosh; and
Samuel Everhart, Sr., Of Grand
Rapids. Michigan. manager. g. W.
George Everhart is president of the
chamber OF commerce of Oshkosh.
The president of the new concern
stated yesterday that the company
would greatly increase the working
capacity OF the Giant Grip, installing
"a hammers instead of but l now in
use, and 48 presses instead of but 3
now in use, and that 1000 men would
be employed as soon as it gets to 60
ing nicely.
Under Manager A. K. Kohler, the
Giant Grip has been hourishing in q
small way, out it needed considerable
capital to make 1t successful factor
in the manufacturing world, and this
capital was not forthcoming, hence
the decision OF its owners to sell out.
When the Giant Grip Horse Shoe
company came to this city, citizens
subscribed SO, 600 for stock, but mis-
management during the first year Or
80 of its operations lost the confidence
and backing OF the citizens and local
financial institutions, and caused Mr.
Kohler to work under a heavy bandl-
cap when he later took the manage.
ment OF the plant.
We underst and that Edward Berg,
stenographer, will go with the new
concern.
1t IS understood that it is quite
certain that another manufacturing
concern IN an entirely different line
Will occupy the building being vacated
by the Giant G rip Horse Shoe com
pany.
