Eckman was peevish. He was do

lowed the crowd to get on his nerves,
for the Richmond players are mild
compared to the great majority on
the other teams seen here. Salaries
are none too large, either.
But perhaps the league treasury
needs Richmond money.

Up to this time Richmond sppar-
emily had the game won. Two runs
in the first inning and another in the
seventh lent effect to this view. Rapp
was pitching nice ball and his team
mates were giving him big league sup
port. Maths. Baker, Wallace, Martin.
Egan and Dobson each made plays
that won round after round of ap-
plause. George Cowan was catching
one of his best games. and McCabe
was by no means out of the lime
light.
In fact up to the fatal ninth things
looked bad for Petersburg. and so
sore did q Cockade City rooter be-
come he exchanged short arm joits
with an enthusiastic Richmond par
tisan. This set the portion Of the
grandstand in an uproar. but the bel
lgerents quieted down and after the
game jovialiy shook hands.

1ELLSWHY HE ADYERTISES
Barker Gives Quotation From Expert
to Explain How it is That Pub
licity Pays.
HAS FOUND IT SUCCESS HERE

A comparison in advertising is il
Illustrated clearly in the following:
"A man who trains a horse to per-
form a certain trick gives him a lump
of sugar after he has done it, then
the horse will do the trick again as
long as he gets his compensation, the
reward being greater in his mind
than the energy required to earn it.
Many concerns in their efforts to in
crease business hold out a lump of
sugar for trade instead of appealing
to the reason. judgment and think
ing power of the people they wish to
influence.
Constant dripping of water wears
a stone and the right kind of an ad
every week is sure to have ire
mendous influence the mass Of
people it reaches. The man who
trades at your store or does business
with your bank for a reason is your
best customer. He is one that you
can depend upon and the institution
which secures customers in this way
has firm enduring patronage that is
a bigger asset than the goods they
carry in stock
G. E. Zimmerman of Chicago who
is the originator and designer of the
illustrations used in Bankers adver-
Using Zone of which appears in this
issue), and the editor of the above
quotation makes advertising a life
study.
The Barker store reports that bust
ness in this city, especially in their
store, meets with success by the con-
slant use of judicious advertising
space.

BURN NEGRO AT STAKE
Colored Man Held for Crime Similar
to One Committed in Bagley, Put
to Death in Oklahoma.
CROWD CHEERS FLAMES WORK

Purcell, Okla, Aug. 25.-While
5000 men, women and children stood
by, shouting their approval, Peter
Carter, the negro, who had previous
ly been charged by three members
of his own race, and identified as the
man who attacked Mrs. Minnie
Spraggins, the wife of a farmer, was
burned to death on brush pile in
the main street of Purcell at o'clock
last evening. Deputy Sheriff Hayes
and Binder sharin Farris, who at
tempted to rescue the negro from the
crowd, were overpowered and locked
in the courthouse.
As soon as the sheriff and his as
sistants had been locked up, the ne
gro was led out and placed on an oil
soaked brush heap built around a tel
ephone pole. He was tied to the pole
and torch applied.
Cheers came from the crowd as the
flames licked the victims face, and
men and women watched him die.
AS he vas dashed to the pole, the ne
gro shrieked for mercy. After the
flames died down the crowd slowly
dispersed. The negro's body was
burned to crisp. ..=-
Mrs. Spraggins, who is not expect
ed to live, said Carter entered her
home last night and struck her on the
head with a gas pipe, beating her
until she was unconscious. An old
mattress was torn up and scattered
oyer her body. After the negro had
Set fire to the mattress he fed.
AS the woman was crawling from
the fire the negro reappeared and
again struck her with the pipe break
ing her jaw and beating her badly.
Her husband, who had gone out on
the farm to do some work, noticed
the flames from the burning struc-
ture and rushing to the house rescued
his wife, unconscious. f..

Declares His Action Had Backing of
Attorney General and Public Ex-
aminer's Office.
BONDSMEN NAMED IN THE SUIT
]. P. Lair and Matt Phibbs Includ-
ed in Proceedings Brought By
County Attorney Torrance.

Acting On instructions from the
board OF county commissioners, who
hrst put the matter up to Henry
Funkley, who resigned before action
was taken, County Attorney Graham
M. Torrance has Instituted proceed
lngs against former County Auditor
R. c. Hayner and his bondsmen, J.P.
Lair and Matt Phibbs to recover
S472.6S, alleged to have been paid
Illegally for clerk hire during Mr..
Hayner's 1910 term of Office.
There is no suggestion that Mr..
Hayner maliciously Incorporated
funds, the allegation merely being to
the effect that he used more money
in carrying on the work of his Office
than he was entitled by law to have.
! Hayner Sought Advice.
81 have nothing to say regarding
the NATTER said Mr.. Hayner today,
"other than the work was there to
be done and employed the help up
on advice from the attorney general
and public examiner. AS matter of
fact considerable part of this mon
ey was paid in county warrants, ap-
proved of by the board Of county
commissioners and favorably passed
upon by the attorney general"
Under the laws which were in eff
feet last year, the auditor for Bel
trami county was allowed IA of a
mill on the assessed valuation up to
$6,0OO,O00 and 1-6 of a mill on the
valuation above this figure.
How It Came About.
The county attorney alleges that
during the year 1910, Mr.. Hayner
expended s2,O13.S3 while the as
sessed valuation at that time entitled
him to spend but $1,541.15, and it is
the difference between these two
sums, together with interest at the
legal rate of six per cent that the
county is seeking to recover.
49, The case probably will come up on
the civil calendar for trial at the Sep
TENDER term Of court here. - -
Mr.. Hayner has employed a Be-
midi attorney to protect his inter-
ests.

Lemon Raised Here IA Inches
Around and Weighs One
Pound.

Now it is lemon tree bearing
fruit IL inches around and IA
inches measured lengthwise
which Bemidji offers as proof
that Beltrami is in the Garden Of
Eden.
This lemon has been raised by
Alva E. Webster, the greenhouse
man, on Doud avenue. the tree at
present having not less than
six perfectly formed lemons of
extraordinary size.
The species is known as the
"Wonder lemon and while it
differs from the commercial lem
on, it is of fine flavor.
The prize big lemon weighs
pound. Naturally, it is of the
hot house variety.
The plant so far this year has
steadily been on the job, having
blossomed three times, each time
having about 500 flowers. It
now is budded to blossom again.
Mr.. Webster may decide to ex-
hibit the plant at the coming
