UNIVERSITY WON TRACK
MEET FROM AGGIES SATURDAY

The University Of North Dakota de-
feated the Agricultural college track
team Saturday on Dacotah field In
one OF the most interesting meets ever
held in the state. The highest in
terest prevailed throughout, and the
last few events proved to be the de-
Gliding factor in favor OF the visitors.
The difference in the score of 7S-45
does not In itself show the close COM
petition, nearly every advantage ETA
petition, as nearly every event was
Won only after q hard struggle.
The Aggies won as many firsts as
did the university, but the latter
had 20 men to 15 entered for the A. G.
and won the meet by winning more
firsts and seconds.
Wirtenberger Of the A. C. was the
star individual point maker, winning
three points, and Nolet came next
with n first and two seconds. Four
.. N. ID. men tied for high honors-
James, Chittick, Zipoy and Mcknight,
each making eight yoints.
The meet started at 10 o'clock a. m.
M was completed at 4 o'clock. The
weather was good, except that a
strong wind interfered, otherwise
many records would have been
smashed.
Three state records were broken.
The high jump was made at 5 feet IN
inches by Schmidt of the university,
the former record being s feet 6h
inches.
In the pole vault, Berg Of the A.
c. broke the former record. reid by
Kemerer of the university at 10 feet
4 inches, establishing a new, record
Of 10 feet s inches.
The half-mile record was also low
cred by Nolet of the A. c., Who made
it in spite of the wind in 2 minutes
5 seconds.
The events were as follows: The
220-yard hurdles were run first and
won by Wirtenberger of the A. c.,
a very pretty race, crossing the tape
about half a yard ahead of Kneishan.
N. D. Bentley, A. c., took third. The
remarkable fact is that Wirtenberger
had only practiced running the hur-
dies onc before the meet. Time,
% 3-5 seconds.
The high jump-Schmidt, N. D. U,
first; Nolet, A. c., second; Welk and
Schlosser, N. D. u, tied for thirc
place. State record broken. Height, S
feet Z LIS inches.
Berg of the A. C. doomed up as q
dark horse in the pole vault and won
out over more experienced men and
went a foot higher than he had ever
gone before. James, N. D. u; KEN
erer and Schlosser tied for third.
Height, 10 feet 6 inches.
The time made in the high hurdles
was slow, and the A. C. men were
decidedly weak in this event, as no
men had tried out and made good.
Taulbert, N. D. u, first; Wells, N.
u, second; Beardsley, A. c., 3.
Time, Is seconds.
The half-mile was n of the pref
test races Of the day; Chittick Of the
u. N. D.. started a fast pace and
Boucher of the A. c. kept him at
this pace, until he soon tired enough
for Nolet Of the A. G. to cut down
his lead and without. Nolet crossed
the tape thirty yards ahead. Nolet,
A. c., first; Chittick, u. N. D., second;
McFadden, N. D. u, third.
State record broken, time, 2 minutes
5 seconds.

prettiest races of the day and was

GEO. H.. WEBSTER
Won Big VICTORY
DESPITE STRONG OPPOSITION
FROM BIG CITY BOOKING AeEN-
ctEs He AGAIN SECURED CON-
TRACT FROM NORTHERN THE
ATRIcAL ASSOCIATION.

Geo. H. Webster won a signal vic
tory at the meeting of the Northern
Theatrical Managers association held
in Duluth on Thursday and Friday
of last week. This association repre-
sented nineteen theatres in 1911, to
which was added at this meeting ten
more houses, making a total of TWEEN
ty-nine theatres in all.
The main feature of business at the
meeting was to contract with a book
ing agent for the association and sew
eral booking agencies from Chicago
and other cities were present to make
a bid for the business, but Mr.. Web
ster secured the contract over their
strenuous opposition.
This makes a total Of ninety-four
houses in the northwest and Pacific
coast country booked by the Webster
Booking agency Of this city. The gen.
ial manager feels highly elated over
he fact that his services have been
so uniformly satisfactory to the
managers association, that they were
unwilling to make a change in their
booking arrangements.

boards and discarded railroad ties:
and has been on the track at all hours
and In rain and shine. He has seen

vided. His railroad friends also made
up a purse to cover his expenses
while he Is abroad.

Kelly entered his Office briskly,
hung up his coat and prepared to
glance through the mail. Because
Kelly was Big and good to look at
and in many other ways an attractive
lure for feminine hearts, there were
q number OF small, scented missives
lurking among legal-looking docu-
ments and business letters.
These he put aside until the con-
tents of the more important commu-
nications had been digested.
Kelly drew q cigar from his pocket
The day promised to be more or less
dull. A young lawyer can only wait
for clients. Kelly lit his cigar and
when II was drawing we'll he elevated
his feet to the desk and picked up the
smaller envelopes.
AS he glanced over his own name
written in various feminine hands he
smiled tenderly, cynically, rsminis-
Gently and finally questioningly. The
writing on one neat, unscentsd en-
velope was not familiar to Kelly's
eyes.
He oponed II first, and read the
contents:
Dear Mr.. Kelly-Your fancee, Hell
look you up as soon as reached New
York / arrived only yesterday from
Omaha and have taken the first op-
portunity ! had for communicating
with you. Since | am to be Helen's
bridesmaid it might make the we'd
ding more sociable il some of us had
met you. am to be in New York
for three weeks and hope you will
find time to call me up in the near
future. so that may write Helen that
I have had the pleasure OF meeting
her future husband. Phone, 009 River
Sincerely yours,
VIRGINIA TRACY"
A cynical smile was master over
surprise in Kelly's face.
Another bunco camel" he NUT
tered. Letter sounds jolly though
guess l will see the game through"
Without a doubt in his mind as to
the class of girl who had written him
the letter, Kelly called the number,
009 River.
When he hung up the receiver he
had made an engagement to call for
Virginia Tracy at six o'clock that
same evening. He turned to his other
neglected feminine correspondents,
but try as he might to forget the IN

cident OF the girl from Omaha he
could hear only rather shy voice
that had answered his call at 009
River. Since business was far from
pressing, Kelly spent much OF the day
wondering as to Virginia Tracy's ap-
pearance.
Toward five o'clock he turned home
ward. He could not recall in his own
history having been so particular as
to the set of his evening clothes. He
was to take Virginia Tracy to dinner
and the theater.
Kelly and the girl from Omaha were
sitting at a small table in the res
taurant before the young lawyer real
ized the full extent of his luck. The
eyes that shone through the candle
light at his were big and gray and
appealing; they looked sharply at him
now and again as IL In apology for
their nearness to him.
During their short drive down in
the taxi she had talked swiftly and
nervously about Helen Ware, Omaha,
and the approaching wedding. 1t had
been quite unnecessary for Kelly to
do more than agree in noncommit-
tai way, to anything she chose to say.
He had found himself enjoying the
musical voice even though he doubted
the source OF her words. He chided
himself for silly idiot. All bunco
girls were soft and innocent and al
Turing! That was their stock in trade.
Kelly had never been In Omaha,
nor had he SO much as heard OF Hell
en- Ware, and he hoped now he never
would, but he found that with VIZ
ginia Tracy's leads he could follow
his role In the story with only occa-
sional slips.
The girl across the table looked at
him from time to time with vague
questioning. That mute appeal went
straight to Kelly's heart and before
he led the girl from the restaurant
he had begun to doubt his own iden-
tity. Perhaps there was Helen
Ware In Omaha, and perhaps she was
engaged to a man named Kelly.
Thank goodness I'm not the Ksl-

1t Is already In active service and at
tracts a great deal of attention among
railroad men wherever 1t goes.
The chief point Of construction
which distinguishes these engines
from others of similar type is In the
fact that they are each four-cylinder
balanced simple locomotives. The
combining Of the balanced feature
with simple engine has been used
the only ones Of this type in America.
and are the only inspection locomo-
tves thus equipped in the world. Be
low the forward end of the new loco
motives are located four equal cylin-
ders, those on the outside being con-
nected with drivers, and the inside
cylinders driving through practically
duplicate connections to the crank
axle. Between the cylinders is a
single piston valve with inside admis-
sion. The valve chamber has only
two steam ports. An opening IL the
port allows the steam to enter the
rear Of one cylinder and the forward
end Of the other simultaneously and
In equal amounts. This maintains
the balance. The valve gear, as will
BE- seen. is Of the Walschaert type.
AS indicated in the photograph, the
observation room and the engineers
and fireman's quarters are under the
same room. There are four chairs on
each side Of the boiler in the observa-
ton room. The interior finish Of this
room is elaborate. An arrangement
for signaling the engineer is located
near the right-hand front chair. The
front doors, 1t will be noted, open out
