day morning, the opening
event of the fair, was a pretty
struggle from start to finish.
Both teams played classy ball
for the first six innings. The
score stood 3 to 2 in, favor of
Souris. In the first half of the
seventh Souris added another.
When Deloraine had two out
in this inning the Souris boys
went up in the air for a few
unlucky minutes and before
the third man went out the
score stood 5 to 4 in favor of
the Canadians. This was also
the final score.
The score by innings was:
Deloraine OOO1 0 8 O x-5
Souris OO1 90 2 1 O O.

friends up the line. In an
other of the dozen articles on
baseball the Eagle averred that
"Bottineau has lost her grip
and in still another that there
is only one hard game ahead
and that is the remaining game
with Deloraine."
All of which reads nicely in
view of the fact that on Mon
day evening the 'longings of
the Bottineau fans were graft
fed and the 1000 column
shaved by the Bottineau nine
and Willow City still had that
one hard game" to play.
The game on Monday show
ed some ragged spots on both
sides but in the main it was
long, hard-fought battle. The
game lasted nearly three hours,
due in part to the large num-
her of scores made and partly
to the fact that it was necessary
several times TO stop play to
clear the diamond. A number
of Willow City fans insisted on.
crowding up to the diamond,
especially after Bottineau took
the lead. In justice to Captain
Martin of Willow City it must
be said that when this feature
was brought to his attention
he admitted that in Bottineau
the diamond was kept free of
spectators and got busy at once
to push back the rooters.
Following is the detailed
score of the game:

1t was pretty generally ad-

evidence against Schultz was
not satisfactory or conclusive.
Only ten witnesses were intro

whom offered very important
evidence, and but five were

Schultz was accused was COM

Who's on the toboggan slide
now? Did you notice anything
happen in the last half of the
ninth inning at the fair
grounds yesterday? Several
thousand people saw the whirl-
wind finish to q baseball game
that brought hundreds to the
city and from the noise they
made it was evident that some
of them rejoiced.
To tell it briefly and without
frills, the Bottineau nine turn
ed what looked like defeat in
to victory in the last half of
the ninth inning when five
scores crossed the plate max
ing the game Z to 6 in our
favor. The game ended then
although the winners had only
one man out. We cannot re-

filled and the 1917 fair, which
closed last night, was a success
from every standpoint, drew
enormous crowds and pleased
the people.
The officers of the Agriculture
al society were too tired last
night to go into details but
they were satisfied that their
labors had not been in vain.
They worked hard to insure
success. Not all of their plans
bore fruit but they have good
reason to feel proud of the
large measure of success which
crowned their efforts.
The exhibits in all depart
ments far exceeded all expect
ations and broke all records for
Bottineau County fairs. The
usual number of prize tags
were ordered and early the first
day there was rush order for
a thousand more. The super
intendents and judges had
their hands full.
The live stock department
made splendid showing. The
horse classes were we'll filled
and many splendid animals
exhibited. Percheron and Bel
gians were especially strong.
In the cattle classes the Short
horn and Herefords predomin-
ated. Further attention will
be given these next week when
the awards will be published.
"A big gain over preceding
fairs was shown in the poultry
department. There were more
birds and of a better quality
than ever before. Few ducks
and geese were shown and no
turkeys.
The art department was
especially strong. The pic
lures in oil and water color en-.
tered by Mrs. ]. r. Halliday of
Westhope would alone have
constituted splendid exhibit.
But there were many other
fine things deserving of special
mention in later issue.
Fruit, vegetables, flowers.
grains, seeds, potted plants
were splendid exhibits testify
ing eloquently to wealth of re-
sources and excellence of man.

The fancy work department
was a whole show in itself
high class work and excellently
arranged.
The machinery exhibit was
a good one, interesting and in
structive. F. A. II. Smith and
the Ertresvaag company, the
local dealers, were prominent
exhibitors. Smiths exhibit
featured a John Deere grain
elevator. endless apron manure

CLAIMS BRIDE WHILE IN

1t was quite a sprprise to the
many Tonopah friends of District
Attorney Van Pelt of Las Vegas to
read of his marriage last week. The
account of the wedding as it appear
ed in the Las Vegas Age, is as fol
lows:
Wednesday evening at 5 o'clock
the court room of the district court
in Salt Lake City witnessed the
greatest victory ever won by our
genial district attorney, o. ]. Van
Pelt. The occasion was his marriage
to Mrs. Nellie NJ. Pixton, a most
charming young woman, formerly a
resident of the Moapa valley, but
for the past several months making
her home with relatives in Salt
Lake.
The romance Of the happy couple
has not been of long standing, our
lmpetuous district attorney having
pressed his suit with the ardor which
is characteristic of him when great
interests are at stake.
Mr. and Mrs. Van Pelt arrived
home this morning and were receiv-
ed with storm of happy congratu-

Evidently she told them just what

1t has been said that "all good
men do in this world is accredited
to the influence of good women. -
Truly, this is wonderful influence.
A divine gift from nature; and there
in lies her greatest power.
1t is for men to toll to be slain
in battle, and build home wherein
women dwell and rule and exert
their influence over men.
When she assumes a place which
has been mans heritage through all
ages, and seeks to act and rule as

dwindle and gradually vanish.
Women; are equally intelligentEand
morally better than men, They should
share in making the laws too.
But share it through their influ-
ence over men, and not as men.

SHORT SESSION OF
The MACON Court
Only One Day Needed For
Business

Judge Z. A. Littlejohn and Solici-
tor General Williams returned yester-
day morning from Oglethorpe, one day
having sufficed to finish all business
at this session of Macon superior
court. 1t is a remarkable fact that it
was not even necessary to submit
any case to jury and the Jail was
cleared upon pleas of guilty, made by
four prisoners confined there.
The grand jury assembled in regu-
IL order and quickly disposed of
business before that body, and at the
close of the first day of the session
all matters had been disposed of and
an adjournment for the term ordered.
Macon county is allotted two weeks
for its court sessions, and the fact
that all business was disposed of N
one day is rather unusual.
