Preparing for Fast Finish.

Although rain interferred with
the Newark Oxford game on Sat
urday. the locals really made a
slight gain by being idle. The de
feat of Port Deposit by Havre de
Grace, cut down the margin Of the
leaders over Newark to less than
three games. The defeat of Elk
ton by Aberdeen also helped as it
gives Newark undisputed posses
sion of fourth place or the rear
end OF the first division.
There was much disappointment
because Of the rain on Saturday
as the prospects We're that one of
the largest crowds of the season
would be on hand to see the game.
Oxford, because of the gentleman
~ conduct Of the players, is the
most popular team in the lea que
with the Newark fans, and the
fact that since the first of last
month this club has been going
at a faster pace than any other
team in the league made it dou-
bic attraction. aa. a..@ re-
The work of the locals is cut out
for them from now. until the end
Of the season if they expect to
give the leaders good fight for
the pennant. While two and one
half games does not seem much,
yet it is a good lead this late in
the season, and Newark will have
to play steady and strong game
all the time to cut it down.
Newark post., 1912-08-14

One thing can be said to the adj
vantage of Newark, and that is
the fact that at the present time
the team is stronger and goiile
better than at any time since the
bell sounded last spring Vie
Willis is now in condition. and il
is safe to say that he will win
practically every game that he
pitches from now on if the club
will only bat some back Of him.
lie will likely pitch most Of the
remainder games.
Scott Gregg has also strength
encd the club, and put more con
tidenee in the players as they now
realize that anything that goes
near centre field will be taken care
OF. When Scott finds his batting
eye it will also make a great diff
ference in the play of the locals as
he is a natural hitter, and will no
doubt break up some of the games.
AS it is he has played but few
games this year. He is much en-
Unused, however. and can be de-
pended on to put up a crack game
all the time.
Newark has eleven more games
to play. This includes two post
poned games. one with Aberdeen
and one with Oxford. A double
header will be played with Aber-
deem when that club visits Newark
the last of the week, but as Ok
ford is not scheduled to return
here again the double header with
that club will likely be played in
Oxford.
To win the pennant it will no
doubt be necessary for Newark TO
win at least eight Of the remain
ing eleven games. That would be
going some, but it is what will
have to be done to capture the
flag. The fact that a majority of
the games are scheduled away.
from home makes it all the harder
to accomplish. So far Newark has
gotten the bad end of the luck.
and has lost a number Of games
by one run. This luck is bound to
turn. and with the good end of
the luck from now on. it is pcs
sible that the local boys may can
ter home with the pennant flag,
and at any rate every fan should
root hard until every chance of it
is gone.
Now that Newark has gotten a
taste Of league baseball, it has

NATIONAL TUBERCULOSIS DAY

Churches and religious societies
to the number of at least 100000
will be urged to give special atten-
ton to the prevention Of tubercu-
losis on Sunday, October y, or on
some day during the week preced-
ing or the week following that
date. This season has been set
apart and designated as the Third
National tuberculosis Day by the
National Association for the Study
and Prevention of tuberculosis,
which makes this announcement.
tuberculosis Day was original
ly set on April %, but was post
poned because of a conflict with
Conservation Sunday Of the Men
and Religion Forward Movement,
which was held on that date. The
observance Of Tuberculosis Day in
the fall this year will be utilized
by anti-turbeculosis workers not
only for the general education Of
church -goers on consumption, but.
also for the purpose of Interesting
them in the sale OF Red Cross
Christmas Seals.
Every one of the 600 or more
anti-tuberculosis associations al
lied with the National Association
will be urged to promote Tubercu-
losis Day in their respective com
munities. While last year over
$4,000 churches observed this oc-
cosion, it is expected that this year
this number will be doubled. Mil
lions Of circulars and other forms
of literature will be distributed.
The support of every religious de-
nomination will be asked for.

tions is evidenced by statistics
which the National Association
gathered last year, which show
that 10 per cent of all deaths
among church members are caused
by tuberculosis. Based on these
figures and on the mortality sta
tistics of the Census Bureau, over
$4,000 of the 33.000.00O communi-
cants in churches in the United
States die from tuberculosis every
year. This figure assumes that the
death rate of LEO per 1000 popu-
lation in the registration area APP
plies to all church goers, when. as
a matter Of fact. the rate would
probably be higher.

THIS MAY HELP

The news report Of a general de-
capitation of Northwestern officials Is
Of considerable interest here. II the
directors have fired all these men be-
cause they have not made good we ap-
prehend it is partially on account of
the fact that the Northeastern road
through these officers has taken on
the shape of a dedelict instead of a
progressive and moving body. Only
a few years ago the Northwestern
was far ahead Of the Milwaukee line
so far as western and northwestern
business was concerned, but now the
Northwestern is not to- be compared
with the Milwaukee. This radical
discharge of officials may mean a
coast line west from Belle Fourche
through Pierre. The Northwestern
has the territory and with a progress
sive outfit in control it ought 70 push
its lines to the coast. Nothing has
happened for some time that has Great

MUCH INTEREST IN GOOD ROADS

The good roads movement is holding
its interest yet in the state, and if that
can be continued up to the time of the
next meeting of the legislature, the
securing of an adequate good roads
law may be a possibility, says a
Pierre dispatch. In all past sessions,
anything looking toward expenditure
for highways, or any change from the
old time work system, was turned
down as soon as it showed up, until
the last session when a half way road
law was secured, but not until it was
made optional by counties, and sew
eral Of the leading counties Of the
state have suspended its action until
a vote can be taken at the November
election, as to whether or not the peo-
pie will accept the provisions OF the
act. The different cross state high
ways are the central points Of agita-
ton, and are being made demonstra-
ton points. The road builders Of Cod.
ington county having arranged for CO.
operation, to put the Meridian High
way in shape clear across their county
in one day. Lake county has purchas-
ed a road grader and engine for hand
ling it, and Is pushing the highway
across that county. The east and west
roads are attracting attention, in all
the sections of the state where they
touch, and the whole agitation is reach
ing to counties off any of these pro-
posed highways, as a policy which will
help the counties, and the whole move
ment is attracting much attention.

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES

Once more the mighty hand Of
Time has moved on the Dial of an
other year to the hour indicating the
closing week of the most successful
school year in the history OF the
Bookings schools. The class of 1912
has rounded the quarter post and the
goal of commencement day is at hand.
The Seniors do not plead guilty to
any marked emotional characteristics
or "gush" but some way there Is a
sort of lump that persists in rising in
their thr aus when they come to real
ize the real significance af the COM
mencement day,
The grade pupils have sent out invi-
tations to their parents to visit the
various rooms of the S hools, tomor-
row friday afternoon. REGULATIONS
in the grad s will be closed at noon
that all may have an opportunity of
visiting with their parents. The
work of the pupils will be exhibited
in the respective rooms which is in
tended to show the actual work done
in the class rooms. The manual train
ing shop will be open and some Of the
work of this department will be on
exhibition. The day Is to be made one
of the greatest for the children in the
grades and it Is to be their encourage
ment that the parents respond to their
invitation to spend an hour or two in
looking over their work of the year.
The seniors entertained the men,
bers OF the high school faculty at an
informal reception last Saturday az
ternoon at the high school building.
Formalities were thrown to the winds,
games were played and every one
heartily entered into the spirit of fun
and good fellowship with a zest that
made the evening so highly enjoyable
and pleasant. Light refreshments
were served and not until a late hour
did this happy event in the life Of the
seniors as well as faculty members
end, then not until compliments had
been exchanged by cheering oae 81

TO Be TESTED
COUNTY TREASURER VAN DYKE
REFUSES TO ACCEPT II.
CENSE MONEY.
INST|GATEO BY pROYDT|ONSTs
State Prohibition Committee Is Back of
the Move-Case Will be Carried
to The State Supreme Court.

Last Thursday the parties who ex-
pect to conduct saloons at Elkton,
Aurora and Volga the coming year
came to Brookipgs and rendered their
license fees for the coming year to
County Treasurer Van Dyke. How
ever, Mr.. Van Dyke refused to accept
the money, or issue permits, although
the applications had been approved
by the County Commissioners. Mr..
Van Dyke took the position that the
state license law is unconstitutional,
having been prevailed to take this
stand by the prohibition state com
mittee.
The prohibitionists wish to make a
test case Of the matter, and thel: &c
sire will be gratifed. y. s. Paulson,
one of the saloonkeepers at Elkton,
will bring suit on behalf of the saloon
men. He has retained Olaf Eden OF
this city, as his attorney and will ap-
ply to Judge Seward Of the circuit
court for a writ of mandamus, requir-
ing the county treasurer to accept the
money or show cause why he should
not. This action will likely be brought
today or tomorrow. This will put the
case up to the circuit court and no
matter which way Judge Seward de-
cides, the case will go to the state
supreme court and probably to the
United States supreme court. The
case is n Of far-reaching Importance
and effects the license law, not
only in this state, but in every state
in the union. The outcome will GER
tainly be watched with interest.
Cheever & Cheever are the attorney
for the prohibitionists.
The prohibitionists base their claim
as to the unconstitutionality of the law
on a decision of the sumreme court of
the United States, which said that mo
man has the inherent right
to engage in, the liquor bust
ness, and no legislature can
barter away the health or morals of
the people" The liquor interests on
the other hand claim that IL the state
license law Is unconstitutional any one
can engage in the business of selling
liquor by securing a government IL
cense and that there would be no re-
strictions whatever upon the traffic.
