THE MIGHTY FALLEN.

One assemblyman, Hacker, father of I'd
vorce law in the late legislature, which e
fected to make more stringent the loose divorc
laws of this state has fallen from his high an
lofty pedestal. He has filed his maiden d
vorce complaint as a budding attorney in IL
town of Sparks. But let the Reno .Joum
tell the story, as it is good one:
llacker?-Where have we heard that
name before?
Oh, yes. Hacker was the assembly
man who introduced the Hacker divorce
bill in Carson City at the session of the
late lamented legislature 1t was de-
signed to act as a gentle corrective
influence tending to discourage hasty
and lll-considered matrimonial am
putations
Well-this same Hacker for now he

recently, on behalf Of a client, an ap
plication for divorce
So are the mighty fallen.
From far distance the voice Of Mr..
Hacker crying in the wilderness. had
been heard: Make straight the way
of justice" but now it is again heard
the same voice crying, 'Make straight
the way of the divorce"
Mr. Hacker filed his maiden ease

IN MEMORIAM.

Six years ago yesterday the dear old town of
San Francisco was almost reduced to ruin and
ashes by quake and fire. Today she is the pre-
mer city of the Pacific coast, She is rehabili-
tated and within the next four years will hold
an exposition that will make the balance of the
world resemble 'piker" She is the one good
city of the coast. But, lest we forget " There
many brave hearts went down into the
silent dust with the fearful calamity that visited
the great city of the Pacific. Let us today shed
a tear in remembrance of the departed. They
were heroes and deserve our sympathy

Bean S Invincibles, are still stick
ing to their old standard, under
their new colors and uniforms;
they having taken into camp Lees
Giants last Sunday afternoon at
the local ball park by score Of l9
to 10. The Woodmen of the World
team have learned how to use the
axe to good advantage. and, al
though the Giant timbers taxed
their skill to some extent for a
little while, they finally fell head
long into defeat. The w. o. VS..
were out in full dress uniform
and promise we'll to turn out a
good team for the rest of the sea-

Break Even
On Fourth
Beach Wins First Game While VII
baux Takes Second Score 2 TO
6 and [ to 3

Two fast games of,baseball were
played at Wibaux July 4th, and
this was the only attraction there
that day. The first game was CALI
ed at ten O'Clock in the morning,
while the second was started at
about three in the afternoon.
Beach won the first by score of
2 to 6 and Wibaux evened things
up by taking the afternoon con-
test to 8. Both games were fine
exhibitions and the weather was
ideal.
:Erdman and Armstrong were
the opposing pitchers in the first
game and both were in good form,
Wibaux getting only five hits off
Erdman, while the Giants pounded
Armstrong for nine safe bingles.
In the second game the Indian, Ca
dreau, pitched for Wibaux and
was touched up for seven hits,
while Wibaux got but five off
Armatrout, who was on the mound
for Beach.
AS usual, the Wibaux sports
had to start row, taking excep-
tion to decision Of the Beach
umpire and the Beach boys as u.s.
ual "babied" them for fear they
would quit, took out the Beach
man and substituted Wibaux
umpire.
Out of the seven hits secured
off the Indian, Smith got nice
two'bagger and also secured two
hits off Armstrong in the first
game. Hruska and Malloy also
made three hits in the two
games, while Milligan made two
in each game. In the last game
Armatrout struck out seven and
the Indian but four. Following
is the score by innings, hits and
errors:
First Game: RHE
Beach -O20 O03 1905 9 8
Wibaux-0 01O OOO-2 S 8
Second Game: RHE
Beach 100 600 ooo-1V S
Wibaux-0 90 500 00x-3 a3
Each team now has five games
out of ten for the season and the
rubber will be played at Beach
Sunday, making the eleventh
game of the season between Beach
and Wibaux.

Carlyle Store
Wiped Out
By Fire Which Started from Some
Unknown Cause Last Friday
Night About 1880 O'Clock

Last Friday night between II 80
and midnight fire was discovered
in the general store owned by the
Ober Mercantile Co., and managed
by R. W. Clark at Carlyle Mont.
The fire was not noticed until it
had gained considerable headway,
and by the time help arrived the
building was all ablaze and nothing
could be done to save either the
building or the stock.
The company carried about a
$500 stock and they were the
only firm doing business in that
section that gave the farmers
credit, consequently the loss will
be keenly felt by many Carlyle
farmers as we'll as the members of
the firm. Including the building,
which was frame structure 4Ox125
feet, the loss was about S1S, 900,
and, although we did not learn
definitely, it is thought it was par
TALLY covered by insurance.
Mr.. Clark, the manager, was in
the city yesterday and in conver-
sation with a representative Of
this paper, says he has stocked a
store across the street with flour,
sugar, tea, coffee. etc., for. the
benefit Of the farmers until some-
one of the firm arrive and decide
what they intend to do.
The Carlyle postoffice was also
in the building and a heavy mail
that had just arrived that day
suffered the same fate as the stock
and building.

CELEBRATION AT DENNIS
A GRAND SUCCESS

The celebration at Dennis on
the Fourth was a grand success in
every particular, there being
nothing on the part Of the weather
to prevent each and every part of
the program being carried out to
the letter. It consisted of horse
racing, foot racing, sack racing,
bronco busting, etc., and lasted
until noon, when the ball game
took place between the teams from
Dennis and Carlyle. the game re-
sulting in a score of nine to moth
ing in favor Of Dennis.
At $50 a wrestling match was
pulled off between Chas. Nelson
Of Dennis and Emery Clocksin of
Carlyle and Lester Peterson of
Beach, in which Nelson was to
throw both Clocksin and Peterson
in thirty minutes. It only required
eight minutes to throw Peterson
and six and a half to throw Clock
sin. After the wrestling match
those who wished to stay enjoyed
q rousing good dance until the
wee small hours of the morning. J.

hard losers and try to bulldoze
the umpires and the opposing
players out of everything they
can.
