Band Out to
Greet "Tigers''
Wibaux "Figers" Ar
rived on Saturday,
Crowd Met Them

Last Saturday evening proved
rather a gala occasion for the local
fans who were expecting number
Of the Wibaux "Tigers" to arrive
on No. 3, and its sufficient to say
that they were out in full force 10
greet them.
A great large banner, bearing
various baseball emblems and the
inscription "Welcome Wibaux
Tigers" was made and carried to
the depot, and just as the train
came putting into the station, the
banner was hoisted and the band
begun playing.
Though it was no certainty that
the boys would arrive on that train
everybody was jubilant, neverthe-
less, and determined that should
they fail to step off No. 3. they
would be out to welcome them in a
similar manner upon the arrival of
the next west t-bound passenger.
AS it happened, however, the
Tigers did not disappoint them
in the least-in fact. they never
fail. Shortly after the train came
to stop five of the ''leaguers, in
company with Managers Kinney
and Schuett, filed out Of the Pull
man and were soon shaking hands
with old friends.
10 one unaware, beforehand, Of
what was about to take place might
have mistaken the gathering for
reunion-in a real "Roosevelt'
family. Even the Pacific Express
tarried in amazement until the
band and banner preceded the pro-
cession to the club rooms, whe re
several more choice selections were
rendered and lemonade was served.
The players who arrived on this
date were: Messrs. r. V. Jen-
nings, who managed the team here
last season; Dave Tucker, the boss
third. sacker, who is always ION the
job; Bowers McGarrey, Harry
Melander and Alfred Peterson.
Those to arrive on different dates
were: Messrs. O'Flaherty, Wal
drum and Brownlee.
The lineup will be as follows:
Al Brownlee. Pitcher
Bowers McGarrey. Catcher
Dave Tucker. lst base
R. V. Jennings. End base
Mike Griffin. 3rd base

Whether it's wiser to make such

il of course a matter of opinion.
Women, for example, kiss each 9TH

good representation of professional
men (including the clergy) and busi-

There was no hesitation on the

by most people long before she was
tried by the jury; in fact, some peo-
pie had convicted her before the
crime was committed. There were
a few, very few, who believed she
was innocent until proven guilty.
The jury was carefully selected and
was good one. 1t is a question
whether a fairer set of men could
have been selected The physical
condition of the court room was the
cause of some complaint, but the
mental atmosphere was VILE.
About 95 per cent. of the people
present seemed to have loaded up
with mental prejudice of the XXX
hatred brand, which was gratuiously
let loose by their tongues upon the
woman at the bar. The very air was
charged with what our Christian
Science friends would call "Malici-
Gus Animal Magnetism" all directed
against the woman in the case"
The jury in the box need not to have
had any knowledge of human ma
ture to see that the audience had
prejudged the case. Every point of
evidence which pointed to the guilt
of the prisoner was received by mods
of approval and smiles of satisfac-
tion. Looks were exchanged among
them which said That's good"
while on the other hand scowls of
disapproval were to be seen when
ever a witness testified in favor of
the prisoner. | fell into doZe

pleas, and l thought | saw behind

we hold up to the contempt of the

taxed by the various churches, but
never realized. He invested every
year not less CASUALLY more) than
1900 in charity, SO secretly, so
inoffensively and so honestly that he
was never suspected of being a phil
anthropist, and never praised for his
generosity. He pensioned an old
outcast woman in Barron county and
an old soldier in Nashville. He sent
two little negro boys to school and
supported for three years a family
of five who could not support them
selves.
He contributed anonymously to
every charity in Nashville; every old
maid interested in a benevolent OBJ
ject received his aid; every child he
knew exacted and received penny
tolls from his tenderness. He sup
ported the heart of every man who
confided in him with encouragement
and affection. He literally did for
give his enemies, and suffered mar
tyrdom on September 18, 1910, af-
ter enduring three years of persecu-
