FIRST GAME A FAST ONE

On Sunday afternoon, with stiff
wind blowing, occurred the first game
Of ball, played by the Warren City
team against the Thief River Falls In
dians, the swift team of which that
city boasts. The visiting team came
over in autoes and owing to the
breaking down of one Of Them a few
miles east Of this city, the game did
not commence as scheduled, but the
crowd saw a good game for their
indulgence.
For Warren, Pihlstrom, one of the
best pitchers in the northwest, and
Johnson did the, battery act; and Ken
nedy, pitcher, and Radlock, catcher,
performed for the Indians. Thief
River Falls had little hard luck ow-
ing to one of the fans on the bleach
ers getting in the way of Aasland
when he attempted to catch a fowl
ball with two men on bases and two
out, which brought Warren two
scores. Warren also lost one chance
to bat owing to a blunder, by one man
batting out of his turn. All in all it
was a very good game and the play
ers We're nearly evenly matched.
The pitchers did good work, but
Pihlstrom seemed to have Kennedy
beaten in the strikeouts, as he struck
out II men to Kennedy's 5.
The score runs as follows:

Died in the Prime Of Life.

81
George b. Harris was called to the
great beyond, at Superior, Wis, on
Sunday morning, May 25, in the prime
OF life, his age being 80 years. The
cause of death was tuberculosis from
which he has suffered for years, al.
though he has been able to be active
~ employed most of the time. But
since April 10 he had been tenderly
cared for at the hospital where the
1lnal summons came, and found him
resigned, yea glad, to leave world
full of care and trouble.
Deceased was born in Canada and
came with his parents to Warren in
the early days, they living for mum.
Der of years on a farm east of town
and later becoming residents of this
city, Where he grew into manhood
and was educated in our schools. He
was the first court reporter that
Judge Grindeland had, hence in de-
ference to his memory the judge ad-
]ourned court on Tuesday afternoon,
SO as to enable those who wanted to
attend the funeral to do so.
Three brothers are the Immediate
mourners of deceased, namely Adel.
bert A. Harris and Roy Harris, resid.
ing in this city, and William F. Har.
ris, of Bismarck, N. D. All the bro
theirs We're present at the funeral
which was held here at p. m. on
Tuesday, the remains having been
brought to this city for interment.
The funeral service was conducted
at the grave by Rev. A. A. Meyers,
and also by the Knights of Pythias
lodge. of which order deceased was
a member. To the surviving broth
ers and all others who mourn this
young mans demise, the sympathy of
the community is extended.

ROBBERY IN TOWN

Last Saturday night there were two
roooerles in our city Gust Wick
mans auto garage was entered and
about S10O in cash taken from the
safe which had been opened by some
one evidently who was an expert at
getting onto the combination. The
second place robbed was the office
of the Pioneer Loan & Land Co.,
where the safe, which had been lock.
ed in the evening, was entered in the
same skil1ful manner and one
drawer containing 60 cents in money
and some valuable papers, was taken
out and carried away.
Suspicion points strongly to a
young man by the name of J. W.
Beckstrom, who came here from Illi-
nois few months ago and mas been
employed as an auto repairer in the
garages in the city and doing other
jobs of mechanical nature. He left
on the flyer going north that same
night, ostensibly for Hallock where
he said he had job of repairing to
40, after which he would return to
Warren. Upon Investigation it was
found that he did not stop at Hallock,
but continued his trip to Canada. Tom
keefe, the city marshal went to Win
nipeg Monday morning to look for the
fellow but failed to locate him. The
Canadian authorities were given a
description of the man and may effect
his capture later.

Road Plans Vary

Various kinds of roads are proposed
in the nineteen petitions now before
the commission, the cost ranging from
$1,000 to $4,000 a mile. The commits.
sion has estimated that road such
as it has in mind for rural highways
can be laid at an average cost OF
$1,500 mile, except, of course under
exceptional and abnormal conditions.
Winona county will be one of the
first benefciaries of the new law for
it's county board was the first in the
state to recognize the possibilities Of
the new measures and to file it's appli-
cations early. This county will also
receive the earliest attention of the
state commission.
Nair, Cloquet; c. M. Babcock, Elk
River, and F. S. Bell, Winona.
Following are the highways propos-
ed in the applications now on file:
First Winona to Lamille, 1850
feet; estimated cost, $41, ,625.60.
Second Winona to Wilson, 22,300
feet; cost S26,440.79.
Third Winona to Almon, 47,90O
feet; cost $51, ,643.

way Of Coleraine, Grand Rapids, Be
midi, Red Lake Falls and Warren,

May Start Work Tomorrow

Still theree is plenty of material to
work upon. In fact, work may begin
tomorrow on at least one stretch of
road. All the preliminary work and
the survey has been completed for the
construction of road east from
Thief River Falls in Pennington coun-
ty. It was the action of the commits
sion in ordering work on this high
way that prompted the injunction
proceedings that eventually led to
the Elwell law being sustained in both
the district and supreme court.
There is still legal problem to be
solved before the commission gets
down to real work and this question
probably will be disposed of when the
commission meets. 1t is not quite
clear how the preliminary work is to
be financed, whether out of the state
highway fund or by the counties. The
latter will not be authorized to issue
bonds until after the surveys have
been made and the same approved by
the commission. A method OF car
ing for the cost of the first work, it
is believed, will be suggested by the
attorney general, who will be repre-.
sented at the coming meeting.
After the bonds are, issued the
county may collect one-half from the
state and one-fourth from assessments
on benefited property in ten annual
installments. The survey may be
included in the states first contribu-

MUCH WORK FOR
HIGHWAY BOARD
UNFOLDING OF ELwELL ACT Ex.
'PEcTED TO BRING FLOOD OF
APPLICATIONS

Nineteen applications for state aid
under the Elwell rural highway law
are in the hands of the state highway
commission and will be considered at
the regular monthly meeting in the
state capitol May 20. With the law
approved and backed by the supreme
court, it is expected that a large num-
Der OF additional applications will be
tlled in short time, although there
is enough work already cut out for the
engineers if the various projects now
pending are confirmed by the COM
mission. It is reasonably certain
that some of the big main highway
plans of the Northern Minnesota De-
velopment association may not be
evolved as rapidly as the promoters
would like.

PROHIBITION COUNTY CONVEN
TON
To Be Held in Warren Friday, June
7-Hon. E. E. Lobeck to Speak

The Prohibition Party is extending
its organization this year to every
county in the state and is holding
conventions during May and June with
that end in view. The convention
for Marshall county will be held in
Warren Friday June Z, afternoon and
evening. The old opera house will
be used for the occasion, it's use be-
ing generously donated for this pur-
pose by the officials of the North
Star College.
The business of the convention will
be transacted in the afternoon ses-
sion and will include the election of
delegates to the state convention to
be held in Minneapolis, July and s.,
the forming of county organization,
the consideration of county and leg
islative nominations and the consider
alton OF plans for the campaign. Hon.
p e. Lobeck, of Alexandria, will at
tend the convention on behalf of the
State Central committee and will
speak, outlining the work that is be-
ing undertaken by the party.
In the evening, a public rally will
be held which will be addressed by
Mr.. Lobeck and others. Mr.. Lobeck
probably is the best known prohibi-
tion speaker in the state He is very
able and very popular and will no
doubt draw large crowd. He is
said to be slated as the party's NOM
inee for governor, and if selected will
make a general automobile campaign
throughout the state.
Arrangements were made for the
convention by VIM. G. Dean, of Min
neapolis, special field representative
of the party, who spent Tuesday and
Wednesday here interviewing local
friends of the movement.
Mr.. Dean states that the prospects
for the Prohibition party's success
were never SO bright as this year
and this is especially true in Mime
sofa. There. is every reason to be-
lieve that not only will the five pres
ent members of the legislature be re-
elected but that two or three times
as many more will be put through
also, and further that it is by no
means impossible that one or more
members of congress and even the
governor might be elected.
The campaign plans include the au-
tomobile tour, the employment Of q
large force of county organizers and
the general distribution Of literature.

WARREN WALLOPS THIEF RIVER
AGAiN-SCORE8 TO

At the ball game between the War
ren and Thief River Falls teams play
ed at Thief River Falls today, the
Warren boys again showed their SUI
perior skill as ball tossers by defeat
ing Thief River by score of s to 3.
Last evening the Warren baseball
team crossed bats with Browns
Tennessee Rats, an aggregation
which travels with a colored minstrel
troupe. The Warren boys were beat
en- by a score of 6 to 0, but they de-
serve great credit for holding the
traits" down as well as they did. The
'colored players, says the manager of
the mnistrels, are being paid $500 per
month to play ball and are always in
practice and are very good players,
and the Warren players, who besides
playing ball for pastime, work all day
long at other work, need not be
ashamed of being beaten by the Rats.
We advise the Warren boys to get
some rat .pizen" next time they
tackle this aggregation.
