Benson Times. s.-The game of ball
with the Donnelly team Sunday was
very uninteresting and rather loosely
played after the second inning when
the score stood Benson 7 to the visit
or's l. After that our boys seemed
to think they had picnic and took
all kinds of chances in running bases
and pulled off other stunts and played
horse in way which brought them
more errors than runs until they had
to get down to business to prevent
Donnelly for going ahead; game end
ing Benson II and Donnelly 10. The
visitors also broke into the error
column badly and as an exhibition of
good playing the game was any thing
but a success.

Sewer Workmen Try to Climb Out
Over Each Other,

Two workingmen who accidentally
slipped into the bay at the foot of
a sewer at Duluth tried to climb
out over each other in getting out of
the place and in the struggle which
followed both were drowned.
They were George Zurich, aged
thirty years, and Steve Nevich, aged
twenty-five. A small boy living in the
neighborhood was the only eyewitness.
Neither man could swim. One stood

VIRGINIA IN THE CITY
BY PHILIP KEAN

For hours the girl had walked
through the city streets, hot, dusty,
tired, hungry. She sought work, but
cSuld not find it.
Everywhere she was turned away.
They wanted only those who had held
similar positions, and Virginia, fresh
from the country, could claim no
knowledge which would be OF use to
her in town.
1t seemed to her that the tall build
ings on each side of the street fTowned
ominously. AS evening came on she
grew afraid She hated to go back
to the tall tenement where she had
paid weeks rent for a room. Din
ner was out of the question, and she
had had no breakfast or lunch.
1t was with gasp of relief, there
fore, that she spoke to a boy who
stood on the corner under street
lamp.

She told him her little story. The
aunt with whom she had lived had
died, and Virginia was unwilling to be

But / can't find work, Billy" she
said.
He was only twenty-one but he had

In fitting them to Il car the leaves of the springs are removed with the exception of the outer heavy leaf. which Is used for steadying purposes. All four tubes are connected by separate pipes to the tank.
 The action of the bulb is as follows: When a wheel of the car passes over an obstruction the bottom of the bulb resting upon the cone shaped block Ia pushed inward. and the surface of contact of the bulb with the block is increased. The heavier the blow the more the block sinks in; consequently there is continuously increasing sup porting area within the bulb upon which the air nets, the air being un- der q compression of about twenty pounds to the square inch in the bulb, the pipe line and the tank. AS re- suit of the increasing hattened area In the bottom of the bulb under n heavy shock there Is cushioning effect that increases with the blow, and when the initial shock has been absorbed there is no rebound. since the air in the bulb. piping and tank has not been ap- preciably compressed.
