Over Plan at Special Meet
ing Tonight
(By Ira HaH,)

AS the Industrial leaguers are just

move will be talked over at a special
meeting to be held this evening in the
City Hall.
Manager Billy Lunberg of the Loco
team has submitted a protest of the
Loco Birdsey-Somers game of Aug. 5,
which the latter won 81, Pitcher KEEL

Auto men to one hit, that in the last
inning. Lundberg protests the play
ing Of G1lstropski, who it is claimed
had played in but two previous con-
tests. There is a lague rule which
reads that player to participate in

pected to finish the league two weeks
from Saturday. The big contest Of
the league will be at Yost Field where

in their last four battles and cannot

A win for the Rocks and a Yost win
will also bring the Rocks into a tie for
first honors. The following Sunday
the Rocks and the Yosts will meet at

limited press Special Service.


BERLIN, Nov. 2s.-Mr and Mrs.
Ferdinand K Burg have telegraphed
ahead to Berlin to have a suite re-
served for them at big local hotel
where they expect to stop when they
come here for a short visit in the
near future. A few weeks ago Burg
would have gone straight to Potsdam
to stop with the kaiser if he had been
passing this way. Not now, however.
The explanation is that plain mis-
ter may rise in life to snch an exalt-
ed rank as to be a suitable guest for
royalty itself. but an archduke cannot
descend TO be a mister" and expect
royalty to associate with him any
longer.
Ferdinand K Burg was not long ago
the Archduke Ferdinand Karl of Aus
tria, a younger brother of the heir to
the Austrian throne. The latter is
morganatically married and his SONS
are not legally entitled TO succeed
him. Unless, therefore, he contrfves
and Karl would himself have been in
line for the rulershiD on mis- brothers
death-but for his abandonment or
his title to become mere mister"
1t is eight years now since the then
Archduke Ferdinand Karl met Fraule
in CzubeT, a charming Viennese girl,
the daughter of a professor in the
Technical high school OF the Austrian
capital. at a bail at which the Fraulein
was a "patroness'' and the Archduke
a patron" 1t WIS case o. love at
first sight but rot a case in which
love ran smoothly. First it was neces-
sary to convince Professor Czuber that
the archduke's intentions toward the
formers daughter were honorable.
Even then the professor could not
understand how member of the i'm
perial family could wed commoner's
daughter. Next the news of Ferdin-
and's infatuation reach the ears OF his
own relatives.
The young archduke was immediate
" called upon the imperial carpet
There was violent scene. The
archduke was obstinate and declared
he would marry Fraulein czuber. He
was assured that permission TO do SO
would never be granted. He tried 70
see the emperor but the aged ruler
refused to grant him an audience
Embittered by his farnily's refusal
to allow him to NARY Fraulein

two children, Ferdinand determined IN

the new procedure, provides that
contest may be initiated in the land
hy any person seeking to aquire title

entry, filing or other claim under
laws of congress relating to the pnb-
lie lands, because of priority of
claims, ol for any sufficient cause

the claim, not shown by the records

portant feature of this ruling is that

Judith Gap journal. [volume] (Judith Gap, Mont.) 1908-19??, 1911-02-03

the entire question of keeping the
people close to the soil hinges on the
ability OF present day society to make
home life on the farm as desirable as
home life in town or city.
1t has been the isolation of farm
life TOR the wives and daughters Of the
farm household that has given year
by year increasing impulse to the city
trend. What the farmers son has
seen Of the home life of mother and
sisters he has wished not. as Il rule,
to have repeated in the case of wife
and daughters. Therefore,, at his
first opportunity he has left the farm
for the city, and it has often been the
ease that sister has followed his ex-
ample.
In Closer Touch Now.
All this, however. was truer 25
years ago than il is today. The social
face Of the country has been changed
in recent wears by the Introduction
of the telephone. the rurai free de!iv-
cry system. the intprurbHn trolley car
and the automobile. Constant Inter
co,lrs" may now be kept up between
farmers families scattered over wide
areas by the telephone system. The
circuit may include a dozen or Il hun
,lrtd families. 1t may be local, or it
may have long-distaIlcp connections.
At all events, it is ut the disposal Of
the farmers wife and daughter while
the farmer and the farmers son are
in the fields. The arrival Of
the daily newspaper, also, helps to
break the mOnOtunv. Ovsr,the main
travelled road there is the regular pas
sing Of the interurban trolley, upon
which the farmers wife or daughter
may take Il trip to the nearest town
without waiting until after the pIow-
ing or harvesting season tor the use
OF a horse. And now the farm
