Steaks Home.

Il. |. Hall, who disposed of his
saloon interests III the city several
weeks ago, left Friday for several
weeks visit with brother who is
in the butcher business at I aith. d
small town west Of M0bridge
While there he expects to help his
brother shoot buffalo. 1t seems
that three buffalo, which belong to
the Scotty Phillips herd, Lave be-
come outlaws and could not be
cOlralled. They were sCld 20 Mr..
Halls brother, who has invited
the former to accompany him in
the hunt. Two Of the buffalo lave
been sold to the Jensen market, of
this place, so if the hunters are
successful the people of Aberdeen
will have an opportunity to get a
taste Of buffalo steak. The hides
will be kept by the hunters, and
as the buffalo are full grown, will
be quite valuable. - Aberdeen

Farm House Destroyed.

| While Mr., G. 7. Oehler was il
town last Tuesday morning the
telephone brought him word thai
his house on the farm two miles
west of town, was burning. He
hurried home only to find the
building reduced to ashes. His
daughter, Miss May Oehler, had
attempted to light a gasolene
stove that had not been used for
a long time, and the stoVe refus-
ed to generate the oil, and posi-
bly, leaked, as an explosion fol
lowed the touch of the match
The gasolene was scattered by
the explosion and the room was
instantly in flames. Happily the
young lady was not burned, only
the lower pal of her skirt takin g
fire, and this she readily extin,
guished. The flames spread SO
rapidly that no time was given to
save anything in the house, Mrs.
Oehler and Miss Oehler gather
ing only a few things from an
adjoining room to the kitchen
and getting out a trunk, all fur
niture, clothing and other arti,
cles being destroyed The house
was valued at about $500 and
was insured in the Evangelical
Insurance Co., for $1,000, with no
insurance on the contents. For
tunately there was not much
wind blowing at the time and the
barp was not touched by the fire
Mr.. Oehler expects to commence
building imm ediately.
Mr.. Oehler wishes to thank
the neighbors who came over to
aid the family at the time of the
fire, and though under the cir
cumstances they were unable to
do much toward staying the
flames. he feels very grateful to
them for their assis tance and
presence at the time.

Ter S fire extinguisher's from the

The fire was started from a

Seven ball clubs in the American
league respect Detroit's outfield. Cobb.
Crawford and Jones compose COM
bination that has no equal in the
league, viewed from any standpoint.
One OF the greatest requisites for
outfielders is throwing, next to hitting.
When young outfielder is. spotted"
the scout, after devouring the batting
average, will ascertain II the player
can throw. An outfielder, to be rang
ed with the good ones, must be able
to have an arm which can throw ac-
curately and with dispatch.
That Detroit's outfielders are re
spected when it comes to throwing
was emphasized most forcibly in a re-
cent game with Cleveland
With one out in the fifth, Hardness
walked. Graney, next up, hit long
single to right center. Cobb folded
the ball, but when Hardness reached
second he hesitated before going to
third. then returned to the bag. Man
ager Jennings would have censured

PLAY WITH ONLY EIGHT MEN
Harry sehtafly Tells Of Peculiar In
cident That Happened In Wash
ngton-White Sox Game.

Harry Schlafy tells how he once
figured In the champion foolish play
of the game-in a game between
Washington and the White Sox in
1907. In that battle Sch1afiy was cap
tain of the Washingtons and was also
second baseman. At the end of an
early inning Schlaf1y went out to tele-
phone, or buy goat, or something,
and was delayed SO long that the SEN
ators had three men put out before
his return. The Sox came trotting in
for their turn at bat; Washington took
the field with only eight men and no
body on second and the game went
on. The first batter, Fielder Jones,
hit one straight across second. Then,
and not until then, was it discovered
that there was nobody on second base.
Incredible as it may seem, nineteen
men seventeen players and two UNI
pires had started the half inning In
this fashion and not one of them was
wise till Jones' hit shot over the
emptysstation. Schlafiy reappeared at
this juncture and the umpire decided
that the hit was Illegal when made
with only eight men in, the field. Jones
had to 60 back and bat over.
