Of the Missing Men of Viborg-
A Reward Offered for
Them

Sioux City, July IL w orn and
fatigued after a weeks search, Arthur
Morrison, of Viborg, s. D., whose
two brothers mysteriously disappeared
while coming to Sioux City on July
4 in a motor car, last night arrived
in Sioux City accompanied by several
citizens of Viborg.
Members of the party declared that
the disappearance was one of the
most battling in the history Of South
Dakota and bad aroused more interest
in Viborg than anything in that
towns history. During the last few
days as many as twenty. five motor
cars from Viborg have been travelling
the distance between that town and
Sioux City in an effort to pick up a
clew. Seven cars were on the road
yesterday; the members of the party
exploring every culvert, cistern and
secluded spot along the roads.
The missing men, Henry Morrison,
"a years, and Clarence Morrison, 20
years old, left Viborg at IL O'Clock
on the night of July B. They were
on their way to Sioux City to deliver
a motor car to a garage. Both of the
young men are widely known about
Viborg and are veil to do. Only
two theories are deemed plausible by
the authorities and citizens at Viborg.
One is that the young men plunged
to their death by running off the
road into the Missouri river about a
mile west Of Elk Point and the other
that they met with foul play.
Arthur Morrison stated last night
that the reward for the whereabouts
Of his brothers, dead or alive, had
been increased to 800. An addition
al reward of 500 is offered Ly the
county commissioners of Turner county,
s. ID. The members Of the searching
party which was in Sioux City last
night were Arthur Morrison, j. c..
Hanson, Dave Nelson, Nj. p. Fred
rickson and Lewis Levison. They
will scour the district about Sioux City
again today.
The missing men have a mother,
four brothers and three sisters at vi
borg who are heartbroken over the
disappearance. The father Of the
young men is dead. The family is
widely known In the district about vi
borg.

LOOKS BRIGHT
ONCE MOREFOR
CRACKER CLUB
Their Fourth Straight Victory Is
One Fine Ball Game-Pen-
nant Hopes Revive.
By Percy H. Whiting.
THE Crackers came home from

THE crackers came nome from
their road trip looking like
pennant winners. They went
2razy with the stick. ran bases at
will and played errorless bail.
No team has looked better here this
year.
OF course any hyper-enthusiasm
can be discounted two ways. to wit:
First Way-The Crackers have
looked like pennant winners a score
of times this seasOn-and the next
day it rained. You get the idea?
Second Way-The local team was
playing against one of Dixie's sad
dest little teams the puny Pelicans.
put after you've discounted all the
- notes of gloom and after you've
made due allowances for everything,
the Crackers still keep right on look
ing like a million dollars
They not only won Thursdays game
against the Pelicans. to 0, but just
previous to that they had won two
from the league-leading Gulls and
one from the powerful Billiken club.
Also they just managed to lose the
semi-final Billiken game by one run
and a miracle.
Price pitched a positively bully
game yesterday. The Crackers ham,
mered Walker clean sideways, and
the whole affair was fine.
There wasn't a sad note struck until
after the game, when the current gave
out and left most of the baseball
ears stranded, halfway between
Ponce De Leon and Atlanta. 1t must
have clouded up out at Bull Sluice or
sprinkled in Marietta

L mated by some of the most bril-
liant fielding that good old Ponce De
Leon ever saw. The star performance
by an infielder was made by Mellow
ell. In the third with Price on first
(and he got there with hits three
out of his four times up), Welchonce
grounded briskly about ten feet to
the right of second base. Mcdowell
went for It, reached out, caught the
ball, fell down and threw to second
all with one motion. Price was forced
and Mcdowell sprawled all over tine
ground. with the ringing cheers OF
the Atlanta spectators in his ears
Tommy Long absolutely discounted
that In the ninth Spencer hit
low fly to right field 1t sailed, al
most on a line, right smack to the
right field sign boards-which are
deep as the bottomless pit. How
Tommy Long got back there nobody
knew but he did made terrific leap
and pluCked the pill right off the
sign board. He came down all sprad-
died and it was not until he climbed
back on his feet that the spectators
realized he had held the ball.
M HEN the game was over Charley

sine (oh, yes, he rides in 'em now

about. And surely the Pelicans would
be any mans idea of nothing on
earth to worry about. It's a great
team but II isn't syncnronized. Moth
ing comes off right. They hit-but
NOBODY IS on. They cover bases
but somebody has just covered It
for them. They run bases-but ar
rive too late. They field brilliantly
at odd times-but bobble in the
pinches
However, Charley Frank may wake
them up yet. He has several players
on the tean-and up to the time he
hooked up with Cleveland he was
mighty resourceful about getting
players when he needed them.

BOUT 4 SUGGEST
BY W. W. Nanghton.

CAN FRANCISCO, July AIN the
y case of the Richie Rivers con-
test proving a long drawn out
affair, which of the llghtweights is
the more likely to retain his fighting
strength?
This is one OF the questions under
going discussion on the eve Of the
battle, and it is a very important one
Moreover it is a hard one to answer.
When two pugilists are to meet ut
certain weight. the average student
tries to discover which of the pair will
find it easier reaching the notch.
Every old trainer knows that a
fighter is apt to lose several pounds
during trying bout, and a wise bet
ting man must keep this in view II
is to his interest to know which Of
the pugilists is likely to be the more
seriously affected by the sloughing off
of poundage in the ring
Weight Surely Favors Rivers.
Right off the reel one would say
that Rivers is the one less likely 10

at a fast pace and goes over the If
teen-round mark. He is pudgy fell
low, and, while he has had to work TO
make 1874 pounds, it is certain that he
can box at 1875 pounds If occasion
demands 1t. This means that if Rivers
loses few pounds while battling with
Richie, no inroads will have been
made on his strength.
Ii may be, as it was with Ad VOL
CAST in his first match with Tommy
Murphy, Rivers, while growing light

into better condition.
Now, in the ordinary course of
things one could not imagine Willie
Richie as losing weight to his ad.
vantage while a mill was in progress.
The champion is a heavy lightweight.
This is shown by the fact that he de-
manded that the notch for the coming
mill be fixed at a pound above the
lightweight scale.
Came Down From 154 Pounds.
Billy Nolan says that Richie
weighed fully 1874 pounds when he be-
gan training for his championship
match with Ad Wolgast This gives
an idea of what big fellow Richie
Is walking about"
OF course, he did not weigh any
thing like that when he went into
camp for the present match. He had
learned his lesson, and by keeping
himself actively engaged during his
six months of theatr work he held
himself around the 140-pound mark
But, irrespective Of what ne weighed
when starting out on the present
training spell, Richie will be pretty
well dried out and as lean as any one
of Pharaoh5s kline when he steps into
the ring to-day He will have nothing
to come and 90 on, as is the case with
Rivers.
Now, if this were an infallible line
of rea soning, Ritchies friends would
have to admit that the longer the
fight continued the bluer would be
come the outlook for Willie Richie.
But it is not infallible.
All Depends on Endurance.

We note that some state papers
are speaking in very commendatory
terms of a state purchasing agent
and the state purchasing agent as
a good business policy. They say the
present incumbent is showing him
self above bribery and his wise pur-
chases for the state are saving it
much money. Now we do not take
issue with their statements but
would like to offer the suggestion
that he be empowered to purchase
a bunch of good laws made neces-
sary by the recent constitutional
changes. The quantity would be
large enough to get wholesale prices,
the integrity of Mr.. Hanley would
protect the state from any bogus
goods and no one can deny that he
could save the state money.
