article Of ball that was little short of
remarkable, considering the cold,
damp weather that prevailed. The
final score was to in favor of Cam
bridge, and it gives some idea of the
kind of game that was played.
Crown was the first to bat and
crossed the pan once in the first
inning. Cambridge proceeded to
even things up il their half and from
then on they were neck and neck.
Several times both teams were in a
position where lucky hit would have
practically cinched the game, but the
hit was not forthcoming. In the sixth
inning Crown had the bases filed, with
nobody out, and it began to look real
dark and gloomy for the Cambridge
team. Ravenscraft, the elongated
individual who was in the box for
Cambridge, frightened up at this time
and struck out the next three men.
The sigh of relief that went up from
the Cambridge fans could be heard
several miles. At the end of the

On the first explosion the men, OF
whom there were 100 on board, rushed
from their quarters and 100 or more
sought safety in plunging overheard.
But the great body of men, officers
and the crew remained on the ship
and were hurled high into the air or
the water as the eliminating explosion
tore the ship into fragments. One re-
port says the ship broke in two in the
middle as she sank. Another and
more dramatic version asserts that
before she took her final plunge
several of her guns discharged a re-
QUEEN salute.
How the fire started in the hold will
perhaps never be known, but naval
experts at Washington are disposed
to believe that the explosion resulted
from the spontaneous ignition OF

FIRST GAME SEPT, 50
Football Season Opens Here With Con-
test Between Princeton and
Elk River Aggregations.
Home Team Being Coached by w. G.
Doane, Who Hopes to rlature
a Powerful r1achine.

The football season opens here next
Saturday, the first exhibition of the
great American college and school
game being a contest between the To-
cal high school team and the Elk
River highs. This is the first game
of the season for both teams, and as
there are no comparative scores to go
by, there is nothing by which to judge
the relative merits of the two teams.
Suffice it to say that when you get
Princeton and Elk River high schools
together for an athletic contest of any
kind you can rest assured that the
game will be fought out to the bitter
end by the teams of both sides.
The Princeton team has been dill
gently drilling away with the pigskin
for the last two weeks, and although
the team has been greatly weakened
by the graduation of most of their old
players, still the new ones are giving
evidence of filling their predecessors
shoes in credible style. At the
present time all they lack is the ex-
perience. OF the old men who helped
carry the orange and black to victory
on many hard-fought field last year
there are Capt. Pohl, Angstman, C.
Stay, Umbehocker, Fullwiler, "Pete''
Smith and "Bob" Brown. With this
supply of old players and a fair
bunch of new material to pick from,
Princeton should develop a team this
year that will give the high school
teams from neighboring towns a
scrappy contest. A good schedule has
been arranged and the team and
management are doing their level best
to give the Princeton admirers of
football chance to see some real up
to-date gridiron sport this fall. The
rules this year are practically the
same as last year, so that the game
will be easier to understand this year
than last. County Auditor Doane
has been coaching the local team and
hopes to turn out football machine

, tests this fall.

When s'Music' Filled the Air.

Three separate and distinct bands
Of small and large boys. with musical
instruments of most diversified type,
surrounded the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
j. M. johnson on Monday evening
and serenaded them with selections
fearfully and frightfully manufac-
tured. There was not a single instru-
ment in tune and the din could be
heard for miles. Even the moon
seemed to be affected by the rat-tat,
toot-toot, ding-dong of the instru-
ments, as it occasionally enveloped
itself in passing cloud. The pres
sure on the nerves Of people in the
immediate neighborhood was severe,
but the boys gave the concert, or
rather series of concerts, with the best
Of intentions-to welcome Mr.. and
Mrs. Johnson home. And Mr. and
Mrs. johnson, the newlyweds, pre-
tended to enjoy the music and did the
agreeable by handing to the three
musical organizations sums ranging
from FIVE to seven dollars and, in ad-
dition, invited the boys into the
house. This, however, they declined
with thanks, but demonstrated their
appreciation of the kindness of the
newlyweds by giving one grand good
night selection in 16 sharps and null
titude of fats which made the window
panes in the Johnson house rattle.
One of the, leaders then approached
Mr.. Johnson and offered to furnish
more Wagnerian music if he so de-
sired, but Mr.. Johnson decided that
sufficient for the night was the evil
thereunto, and declined the PROPOSE
ton. In few words he thanked the
musical organizations for the
splendid evenings entertainment and
said that he and his bride appreciated
very much the honor conferred upon
them by the musicians of Princeton.
The "musicians" then hied them to a
candy store to divide up the nights
proceeds and wished that newlyweds

and Mrs. johnson we're more plenti-
| full.

BOYS HANDICAPPED
Company G's Failure to Lift Smith
Trophy Attributed to Absence
OF Two Crack Shots.
Prize Landed for Second Successive
Time by Company of Wis
conSin National Guard.

On Saturday eight of the members
of Company G went to Duluth-seven
of them to engage in the contest for
the Martin Smith trophy, which con-
sists of magnificent silver bowl and
cups. Our boys were, however,
handicapped in their efforts by the
absence of two crack shots OF the
team, Bemis and Dorm, who were un-
able to be present, and substitutes Sc
lected, while they did their utmost to
make good scores, fell short of those
which could confidently have been ex-
pected from the two first named. Con-
sequently the Princeton team came
out Of the contest far in the rear.
The match was shot off on Sunday
and Company I of Superior, Wis,
won the trophy with score of S33,

which made a score of SGT. This
makes the second successive time that
Company I has won the trophy and
should it win again next year the sill
yer service will become the absolute
property of that company. The field
staff and band was somewhat cast
down by the outcome, as it felt conf
dent that the trophy would not again
slip through it's hands, and it does
not like the idea of the cup going to
a company in another state. Seven
teams entered the competitive shoot
and, with the unfavorable weather
which prevailed, the scores of each
team we're considered very good.
Major Orrie E. Lee, first brigade,
M. N. G., Saltwater, was the range
officer, and Lieut.. R. M. Weaver, bat

was to be an extra-inning affair.
