in threatening to quit the game yester.
day because of an adverse decision. It
developed that the decision made no
difference in the final result. The ques.
tion of whether a man touched base is
too important for an umpire to decide
on evidence presented by the men on
the team opposing the runner, however
II was claimed in one of the disputes,
at least, that Umpire Chenoweth did
not see the play, The rule has always
been to favor the base runner when

BARN IS PREY E
OF FLAMES
Otto II. Johnson Loses His Well.
Filled Building Monday
Afternoon. ..*

Small children playing with match
es in the hay-mow caused disas-
trous fire on the Otto H. johnson
farm in the town Of Kandiyohi east
Of town Monday afternoon between
two and three O'clock, when the
barn and silo on the place burned
to the ground with most Of the con-
tents. ! -&
Mr.. Johnson was in the field at
the time cutting wheat. Owing to
the grove obstructing the view ne
did not discover the fire until it had
broken thru the roof of the barn.
The only animals in the barn were
a full blood bull and a horse. The
bull had the freedom Of the yard,
and had left the burning building
on his own account, and Mr.. Johnson
arrived in time to save the horse
although the. firebrands were falling
thick and fast around him. With
the aid Of a neighbor, who had hur-
ried to the scene, Mr.. johnson man
aged to save his cream Separates,
and pull the gasoline engine out so
far that it was not entirely ruined.
With these exceptions all the con-
tents Of the barn were consumed.
There was about twenty ton of hay,
and practically all the tools on the
place. Mr.. johnson had just finish
ed putting in a cement floor and had
the barn fully equipped with steel
stanchions. The size Of the barn
was 32x56 feet and the silo was 33
feet high and IA feet in diameter.
The barn was 26 years old, being one
Of the first large barns to be put up
in the neighborhood. There is 5000
insurance in the Dovre & Mamre
Company. Mr.. johnson does not
think that he can restore the build
ing for much less than $4,000.
It took some lively work to save
the house and granary from burning
also, as the brands from the barn
set fire to the roofs Of these build
ings continually.
AS stated. the fire was set by. two
Of the small children having taken
some matches with them to the barn.
Fortunately the children came out
unharmed from the fire.

Claims Cure for Cancer. .

The friends and neighbors Of the
Jacob Brewer family will be glad
to learn that Mrs. Brewer is shortly
expected to arrive home cured of the
serious malady, cancer Of the
breast, with which she was suffer-
ing. She was in a very serious con-
dition when a friend recommended
to her DR.. Nichols Sanatorium at
Hot Springs, S. D., which treats can
GER exclusively. She went there and
was accepted as patient, although
the disease was far along. Mfr. Brew
er came back from there last week
very much pleased with the manner
in which this doctor had been able
to help his wife, and asked the Trib-
une to tell all who are similarly af-
flicted about her case. > There are a.
bout 260 patients being treated there
and new. buildings are being erected
to take care Of the increase in pa
tients. According to Mr.. Brewer,
DR.. Nichols theory is that cancer is
caused by abrasion of the flesh or
skin. Eighty-tive percent Of the pa
tients are women, and by far the
larger number are affected on the
breast, which the doctor ascribes to
the use of >corsets. The greatest
number. Of men patients are affected
in the lips or face Of which the usual
cause is smoking. e. -: ~ -.
The Brewers lived formerly south
Of Willmar but recently purchased
a place near Kandiyohi, where they
now reside.

kANDlYOHi COUNTY FAIR
ASSOCIATION INCORPORATES
Preliminary Steps Taken by Board
OF Mahagers Towards Acquiring
a County Fair Ground.

[lzzKandiyohiS County Fair Association
Emet Saturday evening, and after a
full discussion concluded that it was
necessary to incorporate the organ
ization and acquire grounds on which
to erect Buildings required for stock
fexhibits zand which would make pos
=sible theEbuilding Of track and ath-
letic field. Articles Of incorporation
have been drawn and will be for
warded to the Secretary Of States
office this week. This organization
will not BE. for private profit, but
will be public in it's nature and be
governed BY state laws similarly 70
the Stats Fair. .Al it's receipts,
from stock subscription or other
sources, will be used for putting on
fairs and improving its grounds.
Fair Board members hold options on
lands adjoining the Park Assembly
Egrounds,I and the disposition Of the
Board IS to locate the fair ground
there if the necessary additional
Iconcessions, can be secured from
neighboring property owners and a
long term lease or other arrange
ment beamade for the Park Assem-
Ebly grounds for use in connection
with the fair grounds. It will be
necessary to vacate that part Of
Park avenue that lies between the
park and the low ground to the
#south, and to do this will require tie
Eysigning of the petition by all owners
|.of property within 800 feet Of the
part to be vacated. This part Of
Park avenue has very seldom been
FUSED by anyone and has not been
improved. @s.s
A committee was appointed to Sc
cure the|necessary options and sig
natures to report when the fair or
ganization is legally completed. 1t
would seem to be to the interest Of
all residents Of that neighborhood to
have this low place fixed up and i'm
proved, so that it is not anticipated
that there will be any serious diff
Guilty for the committee to secure the
necessary papers.
From the general standpoint of
the city and county the success Of
the plans . combining the park with
fairg1O and an athletic field
means much. It would give us the
finest fair property Of any county
fair Eof the state and enhance the
value of the park property for pub
lie gatherings. The plans have. been
gone over by competent engineers
and horsemen, who declare them to
be perfectly feasible as far as the
building Of a track is concerned. The
combination Of the park, lake and
athletic grounds, will be hard to beat,
if this plan materializes, as it will
| with the cooperation Of the people
| Of that neighborhood and Of the city
and county generally. ..~

RETIRING DIRECTOR
: GIVEN LOVING CUP
Rev. W. E.. Pearson Recipient Of
Splendid Gift From Svea Male
Chorus at Moline, III.

Moline Daily Dispatch, July "a;
The Rev. Walter E. Pearson was
honor guest at banquet at which
active members of the Svea Male
Chorus were hosts last evening elt
the Watch Tower, entertaining as d
farewell to Mr.. Pearson, who has
been conductor of the chorus for the
last two years, during his pastorate
at the Emmanuel Lutheran church,
and who leaves next week for Will
mar, Minn., where he has accepted
a call.
Thirty-three members gathered
around the festive board and par
took Of sumptuous banquet served
at 8 o'clock. This was followed by
an informal program of toasts and
songs. G. L. Peterson. served as
toastmaster. C. M. Carlstedt, the
only charter member Of the chorus
present, was the first to be called on
and he expressed his regret at los
ing the Rev. Mr.. Pearson as leader
and voiced his appreciation of his
services, as did the other speakers,
Oscar Eckerman, E. E. Nyquist and
Herman G. Applequist.
Carl G. Londberg presented the
honored guest with handsome low
ing cup, token Of appreciation from
the chorus for his very efficient lead
ership. The cup, which is of silver
with gold bowl and unusually at
tractive in design is inscribed with
the name of the recipient, the Choir
us and the date. The Rev. Mr.. Pear
son gave an appropriate and pleas
ing response.
Since the Rev. Mr.. Pearson ac-
cepted leadership Of the chorus there
has been a very noticeable increase
in the active membership, the roll
having been increased from sixteen
to twenty nine. He is a thorough
musician, vocalist, organist and
plays onmost every other instrumentb
and is capable Of splendid directing,
and his work with the chorus mem
bers has brought out the very best
in them, as was evidenced in the op-
en-air concert given following the
banquet, when the beautiful blending
of voices and the shading Of tone
was a credit to their leader. !: :
--'== He assured the members that he
would at least sing with them at the
time Of the Swedish-American sang
arrest to be held next year at Min
neapolis.

SAFEGUARD VETS ON TRIP.
Chief Surgeon Of |. N. G. to Accom-
pany Iowa Delegation to Gettysburg.


Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines. June Ex-Governor
Clarke. who starts for Gettysburg Fri
day night. with the 800 Iowa survivors
of the battle. has asked that DR.. D. s.
Fairchild. chief surgeon Of the medical
department of the Iowa national guard.
accompany the governor and adjutant
general to Gettysburg. The fact that a
score or more OF the veterans who had
applied for the orders for transporta-
tion have backed out because of the
danger of the trip to them. has sug-
gested that it would be an excellent
thing to have the physician Of the
guard along for emergency use. The
governor and his military department
will do everything possible to SAFE
guard the CID men on the trip, but it is
reasonable to expect that some Of them
will suffer greatly on, such long
journey.
The Iowa contingent all leave on
Friday night and start from Chicago
Saturday night The party will mum l.
Der a few more than 300 Of the vet
Grams. with probably 200 more who go
along to participate in the entertain
ment. The fact that it is to be a re-
union of both the union and the con-
federate soldiers, and both will be
equally welcome. makes it certain that
the event will be notable in many
ways.
