GIANTS BUY GRANT
FROM CINCINNATI
MCGraW Secures Third Base
man to Be Used as
Utility Man.

CINCINNATI. June 4 Eddie Grant

fhillies and the Reds which gave
Pdskcrt and Lobert 10 the Philadelphia
club two years ago. was sold 10 Man
aacr McGraw of the Giants yesterday
afternoon. mutual satisfaction being
bad to price
Nc6fraw has been strong for Grant
ever since Eddie broke into the game
~ making five straight hits off
Mathcwson. When Philadelphia traded
Grant IL Cincinnati the Giant manager
expressed great surprise because he
always maintained that Grant was one
o. the best infelders and at the time
a one Of the most reliable hitters.
As matter of fact. George SchIei.
the old catcher of the Giants. claimed
that Grant put him out OF the league
by his remarkable fielding. Schlei was
primarily "a left-field hitter. and in one
game Grant robbed him of four clean
hits.
That fellow Grant has made a repu-
tation stopping my drives" said Schiei,
"and more than that, he has sent me
back To the minors hitter
Eddie Grant is college player. hav
ing made great record while on the
Harvard varsity team He has been
a reliable hitter ever since he broke
into the big league. and the only rea-
son for his release to New York is that
Alneida. the Cuban. has been going
strong that Tinker can use him as
: regular. Eddie Grant should be a
wonderful help TO the Giants in their
n1ht for third successive pennant.
As utility man he will be more than a
mere successor to Heine Groh.

Big Broome got one for three and one

each got one for three bases.
The fielding of Claude and Miller was
very good. Each OF them had miscue
but they were on hard chances.
Although the Christians have very
worthy opponents in the Methodists. they
appear TO have the edge on all the other
teams, and will likely land the bunting
Ninth has gotten together a fast bunch
Of ball players. and will stand a much
better chance TO go through the post

NEW wESTHoPE DRlpaE

Consulting Engineer T. r.
Atkinson has just completed
checking the shop drawings
for the steel bridge over the
Mouse river just east of West
hope, and ssys it is to be one
of the greatest bridge struc-
lures in the state. Il
This bridge will consist of
two tO-feet riveted low truss
spans, and one 150-foot high
truss span. It will have rein
forced concrete piers and abut-
ments, and an 18-font re-inforc-
ed concrete floor.
The approaches to this bridge
will be over the Mouse river
bottoms and will be heavily
riprapped. The grade from
the bottom to the upland will
only 5 per cent. Mr.. Atkinson
believes this will be the begin
ming of a state highway across
the northern part of the state
through the Turtle mountains.
The big dredge now working
on the Mouse river improve
ment has passed through the
500 line railroad bridge east of
Russell and is working north
at the rate of one-half mile a
week.
Already the benefits to be
derived from this dredge are
obvious, for, notwithstan ding
the extreme high water this
spring, there is a large acreage
of land, never reached before,
on which hay will be cut tn is
spring.

was BlasTms wlTn DYNAMITE


Olof Hanson, q farmer living
north of Dunseith, had both
eyes put out and sustained
other serious injuries Tuesday
by an explosion of dynamite
that he was using for blasting
stumps.
He had planted a charge of
dynamite under a stump and
after lighting the fuse had
gone back some distance to
await the explosion. As the
charge did not go off he went
back and dug away some of
the earth from around the fuse
and relighted it with a news
paper. The fuse had burned
shorter than he thought and
there was an immediate explo-
sion.
Hanson was thrown some
distance and rendered uncon-
scious. His face and hands
were badly burned and both
eyes SO badly injured that he
will lose the use of the optics.
Deep gashes were cut in his
face and hands and the upper
part of his body peppered with
the dirt and gravel.
Hanson is about 55 years old,
a bachelor, and was alone at
the time of the accident. When
he regained consciousness he
found himself completely
blinded and it was some time
before he could find assistance.
After wandering about TOR
