PosT-sEAsoN SERIES
BY c. w. SWAN.

The amateur post season series. which
starts today. will give the fans tw, good
ball games. In Section A, the Bankers
pennant winners in the Capital City
League and the Interior Redmen, Of the
Departmental League. will battle for the
leadership. and this should be a corking
good engagement
In Section B, Ninth, flag winners In
the East Washington Sunday School
League. will cross bats with the Sherwood
tribe of the Central League. Ninth will
work either Bell or Bryant on the mound,
while Sherwood will use Dusty Rhodes
on the hill
1t was stated yesterday, in an after
noon paper. that the game in Section B
would not be played. Secretary Shurtler,
OF the Amateur Association. said last
night that Ninth and Sherwood would
positively play this afternoon at Thir-
,teenth and d Streets Northeast. This is
correct.
The Bankers should defeat the Red
men today with comparative ease. In
terror. as a team. does not compare with
the Bankers. The Capital City League
pennant winners look about the one best
bet in the series, with the Ninth Street
Christians the runners up. Ninth has
an aggregation of hitters. and with fair
pitching may hand Byrd's outfit a good
beating, but it is very doubtful II the
Christians can come through with enough
wins to get within striking distance Of
the fast-fying Bankers.
The Marshalls. of Baltimore. will fight
the Nisilants tomorrow at Vigilant
Park, and two great games are looked
for. The Figilants are going at a fast
clip, and il will take some mighty good
ball playing to beat them. The Mar
sha!ls are reported to be the best team
in Baltimore. and from reports will put
up clever game. Manager Oliveri.
of the Vigilants stated last night that
Lefty Wooden and Don johnson would
DO the hurting, with Buck Becker,
Forest. Thompson, and Giovannetti In
reserve. The first game will start at 2:15
o'clock. with Messrs.s Billy Belts and
Joe Handiboe as the umpires.
Sherwood will go into the game with
Ninth i'm Section determined to win
out, and also to win the title in Sec
ton B. These boys have been in the
post season series in 1911. and Billy Love
says his lads are sure to win out.
1 Ninth has been in the series two years
running. The Christians have better
show to win than Sherwood, owing to
their hitting strength, but baseball is a
funny game. Lots OF things happen in
r baseball game.
Charlie Broome. who is plotting the
Ninth club, says his outfit should win in
Section B. and then give the Bankers
a rub, should they win out in Section A,
which is almost certainty. Broome
figures that with Bell, Bryant, and
Kelly to do the hurting, he has a trio
of pitchers strong enough to stand the
gaff, and as his club can bingle a little
stands a good chance of winning.
Well, here's hoping the Christians get
good chance to land the title once.

Jim FLYNN LOSES
TO GUNBOAT SMITH
Californian Knocks Out Pueblo in
Fifth Round at Madison
Square Garden.

New York, Aug. &-Gunboat Smith, q
tall. rangy lad that halls from away
California, will have to his credit in the
record book of this season a knockout
over Pueblo Jim Flynn in five rounds I'm
Madison Square Garden on the evening
of August s.
None take away from Smith the credit
that goes with knockout But those
who were on the scene when the battle
occurred will agree that Smith had to
batter down steadily and pitilessly ore
OF the gamest fighters that ever donned
the mits
The record will be correct that the
knockout happened in the fifth round, but
II will not mention that Jim Flynn, tile
Pueblo fireman, had sprawled on the
floor four times before the finish.
The termination of this was tragic in
the extreme. Picture to yourself a long.
lanky. well-muscled athlete striking out
at a tousel-pated wild cat. The feline
has at last been brought to bay and is
down on its knees with its face bathed in
crimson as it breathes its last. That is
as good description as could be given
of the fight between the two fighters.
1t took terrific battering before the
Flynn person was beaten into submis-
sion. But. though he seemed to posses
a jaw and head Of harveyized steel, he
had to succumb to that persistent pound
ing from man who Is credited with be-
ing one Of the worst punishers in the
fighting game.
The end was, as we have said, nerve
thrilling. In that fateful round Smith
threw every ounce of energy he pos
sessed into his blows. He missed a few,
but the ones that landed lost no strength.
The fighters were moving fast around
the ring, each with desperation printed
on his countenance. The left paw of
Smith cuts the air and it lays Flynn
on his back. His right crashes against
the much-pounded Flynn's chin. The
little fellows legs tremble, his body
quivers for a fraction of a second, and
j. is fat on the canvas.

Town Council Meets

At the regular meeting of the civ
council held in the law Office OF
Tressler & kirton Tuesday evening
the usual routine Of business was dis
pensed with consisting of allowing
an unusual large number of bills and
most OF them dating back to tie
small pox and typhoid fever epidemcs
Of last year.
he aldermen present went over
the plans and specifications of the
city water works and sewerage and
found them complete and satisfactory
in every detail.
n petition was presented to the
council signed by majority of the
property owners in the two blocks
from the Henry PIott corner on
Eighth avenue to he VIM. Chase
corner OH Sixth avenue, asking that
side walk be ordered constructed
along he two blocks and a crossing
put in on Seventh avenue and the
same was ordered 70 be built i'm the
next thirty DAYS.
The First National Bank of Malta
presented petition asking that hat
institution be made one of the de-
positorles for city funds accompanied
by bond in the sum of @2O, 900 and
thes city clerk was instructed to notify
the Town Treasurer to deposit one
half OF the city funds in the First
National Bank and also to ask for a
bond in the sum of Sec, 900 from the
First State Bank. The two deposit
ories are to pay the city 215 per cent
interest annually on deposits, payable
quarterly.
The question of city marshal and
night watch was taken up and
thoroughly discussed and it was de-
cided by unanimous vote of the
council to dispense with the services
OF Marshal Wolfe and Night Watch
Mclean at once and to hire Louis
DeBois to do the work of the two.
There being no city engineer it
was thought advisable to secure one

Cut His Throat

Gus Brunzell, who has been around
Malta for THE past few mouths. made
up his mind Monday that he wanted
TO take trip to the Great Bsvond
and used a razor as a ticket but made
Il poor JOB OF it and is now i'm the
Malta hospital and on the road TO
recovery. What this same man has
gone through in the past two or
three months is enough to kill a
dozen ordinary men and vet he comes
ont smiling. Monday he was a little
more under the influence of bottled
tan21efoot than usual and went down
to the new wagon bridge where he
was to put an end to things and after
making several cuts at his throat lost
the razor and could not recover il to
finish up. In squirming around he
fell IN deep pit that had been sunk
there IN putting in the bridge, the
fall alone being enough to Kill n mann
a fellow who happened to lie in the
nelghborhood came up town and
notified the officers who went down
and brought him up and placed him
Ill jail where his wound was dressed
and later he was taken to the hos
pltal. lie has probably had all he
cares for of the suicide route and in
the future Will likely straighten up.

Malta to Be Represented

a special meeting of the Com.
merciaI Club was held in the office o
Is. W. Brockway Tuesday morning te
perfect plans for this place to be
represented at the land drawing a,
Glasgow the first twenty days il,
September. The various committees
were appointed and gave in their
report at another special meeting
that same evening and John Ebaugl1
was hired to !, ok look after the in
terests OF this vicinity at GLASGOW
The expenses will nal uraIly be heavy
and it was proposed they be raised
| by subscriptions, but it would appear
That there are a number in this CITY
that are not thoroughly awake to
the opportunity that is presented.
The Commercial Club and a few in
dividuals have done everything in
their power to advertise the town
aud put il on the map with laroer
places in the stale and there are
some however that do not care to
get out Of the old rut.
A chance to get lot of cheap ad
vertising such as we could Get at the
present time does not present itself
every day and when it does it should
be grabbed. A few hundred dollars
spent now would do as much GOOD
along this line as several thousand
would later. At Glasgow there will
in all probabilities be in the first
twenty days in September between
seventy and eighty thousand people
and there is not land in the reserya-
ton for more than one-tenth that
amount and with the proper en-
couragement they will come on to
Malta and look over our country and
some OF them are bound to locate
here, either on government land or
buy decided land. There is room for
an army OF people in the Milk river
valley and on the benches tributary
to town there is room for another
army. This is movement that
should meet with the approval and
support of every citizen who wishes
to see our little town 90 ahead and
it equally divided The expense will
not be heavy on anyone, but if left
Tor few to stand will be burden
some. Some people will tell you
that Malta is one of the ".,est ad
vertised towns in the state.'' We
will grant it is but with little extra
exe'tion we can make it the best ad-
verlised town in the United States
and when we do that we are eoino
to get people from other places in
here and at an earlier date than we
could otherwise.
1t is the intention of the CONNER
clal Club to get up display of
grains, grasses and vegetables that
will be second to none and one that
would do justice to the county at the I
state fair These will be placed in a
large tent that is to be plainly
marked that it came from Malta and
MIR. Ebaugh will be in charge and
explain the merits of our country and I
passing out literature telling of our
resources. | is q good move on the /
part OF our Commercial Club and
should meet with the hearty SUPPORT
md approval of the entire com
nunily.
