HOWARD HAS

Present Team Will Fight for
Pennant, With One or Two
Additional Men

The fans Will not have to wait for
the training season to set line on
the Seals for next season. The team
that y In the feId now will be prac-
ttcaliy the same - the one that Will
represent this city next season. with
. couple OF additional players.
Apparently tho fans arc satisfied
with the present combination OF toss-
ers. a. they have been playing the
game In satisfactory manner. II Is
the general belief Howard would
have had his team up there lighting

bunch OF tossers on hand at the
opening OF the season as he has now.

The effort was too much for the
Seals. They had played above their
mark, and then came the crash. The
boys started to slide, and they dfd
not stop until every other club was
passed on the downward course.
Howard realized that he was up
against It. and Magnate Ewing was
also Of tho same opinion. They start
ed to purchase ball players, which
resulted IN the AcQuiremsnt Of Chap
Lefty Lsifeld. Dutch Schaflor ana last,
but not least. Jeff Overall.
With these players the weak SPOTS
Of the club were strengthened, and
today the Seals look like future
pennaut winning combination: The
club has been particularly efYeetiye
against Portland during tho last hall
OF the season, the erratic work has
been characteristic OF the teams play
ing. When they were expected to do
something the tossers fell down on
their admirers.

Clever Local Lad Will Go to
the Front If He Beats
ReeS

Ray Campbell. the speedy little local
lightweight. hopes to score knock
out over Louis Rees when they come
together tomorrow evening at the
Pavilion rink, and If he does the
homo industry boy intends to go
right to the front as a 20 round per-
former. Campbell looks to be in
rare form for the bout and has been
made q 10 to favorite over Rees.
Good lightweights are badly need
ed now to recruit the ranks In this
class, and the only way to develop
talent IS to give all the boys fair
chance. Campbell did splendid work
throughout the northwest all sum-
ner. beating all corners. Therefore
he Is entitled to consideration and he
stands a good opportunity of making
his way to the front.

There is little doubt that Camp

but after that time they will have to
look out for Rees. When he starts to
tear he generally makes the fur hy.
He has damaging punch In either
hand. and, while he is awkward, he
Is always dangerous and he Is espe-
cially effective against clever per-
formers.
Another youngster, Johnny Soden-
berg, the Omaha middle weight, also
will have @ chance to shine. He Is O

n ECAUSE lot Of the aght fans
r. believe that Mike Gibbons. the

weight class, Is the man without
the punch, Mike Is bit miffed
and wants to show. not by his
record OF knockouts, but by q long
record Of winning battles. that II
pays just as well to have q rapid
fire delivery of many punches that
land as single broadside that
misses many. many moro times
than 1t gets home. In . word.
Mike believes that his scheme OF
lighting. which is to land early
and often on an opponent, is much
better than that used by sluggers
who have the single wallop and
can not land 1t one round out OF
five.
~ UT MIKE doesn't admlt that he

Mikes battle with Eddie McGoorty
in New York rather got on Mikes
nerves and he proceeded to ask II
anybody ever had got an express
sion of opinion from McGoorty a.

punch. Mike claims that he landed
several on the Oshkosh Irishman
that were gems and that set the
Wisconsin boy to thinking during

and I get them home often enough
to make them count for q whole

M. {. Church Notes

The success of the Eau Claire
district convention of the w. F. M.
5. that was held in the M. f.
church October l and 2, was very
gratifying to the members of the
local auxiliary. The choice of
River Falls for the convention was
really due to the decided growth in
missionary work in the church here
during the past year. There are
now three hourishing missionary
organizations-the w. F. M. S., the
Standard bearers, and the Kings
Heralds.
The w. F. M, S, is composed of
the older members and. numbers IS.
1t claims the honor of being the
banner society of the district. At
a recent meeting the following
officers were elected: Pres, Mrs.
Rollins; Vice. Pres, Mrs. Snodgr ass;
Sec, Mrs. Hanna; Treas, Mrs.
Rounsevell; Supt. of Literature,
Mrs. Fletcher; Program Com, Mrs.
Crabtree, Mrs. Welles and Mrs.
Almy.
The Standard Bearers Society is
made up of young ladies oyer
IA years. The President, Miss
Ethel Duncan, gave the convention
an excellent report of the past
years work. The present member
ship is 19 and this will probably be
increased during the year. Miss
Sanford Is the leader for the COM
ing year.
The Kings Heralds is a society
of children from 8 to Ia. 1t was
organized at the convention and
will probably have a membership of
Is or more to begin with. Miss
Maud Worthington is their leader.
Any person, young or old, may
be made life member of the w. f.
M. S. on payment of $40. Mary
Elizabeth Bird, at the age of three
months, has the distinction of be-
ing the first life member from
River Falls. She was made MEM
Der by the convention.

party members voted each time for
the bill, the remainder, about ff-
teen in number spoke and voted
against both measures. Cary and
Stafford, elected as Democrats,
voted for the bill each time, al
though they were excluded from
caucus deliberations.
Cooper, Nelson, Lenroot, Muir
dock, Anderson, Lindberg and
every progressive Republican who
who made the fight against Cannon
ism and the Payne-Aldrich bill in
the House, all opposed the new
tariff law. The vote in the Senate
was the same as on the preceding
measure. Throughout the long
debates, personal or political at
tacks or recriminations were notice
ably absent. 1t was generally ap-
preciated that men were using their
best judgment in determining their
individual action, SO that all talk of
breaches between those who voted
for or against the new tariff bill
are without foundation. Every
man presumably acted according to
his conscience, we'll prepared to de-
fend his vote, if need be, and on all
important progressive Legislation
those who have worked together in
the past will act together in the
future.
The currency bill passed the
House with all the Wisconsin Re-
publicans supporting it for reasons
already given. 1t is a coincidence
because no caucus or conference
was ever held by the Republican
members of the House on either the
currency or tariff bills.
No further Legislation is likely to
be enacted before the regular ses-
sion of Congress which meets next
December. Throughout this special
session l have tried to fairly pres
ent Legislative matters as | viewed
them, and from kindly expressions
received from many constituents,
feel amply repaid for the time and
effort employed in sending over a
score of letters for publication. If
they have not met with approval as
to opinions expressed, in every
instance, either by the publisher or
reader, and recognize that would
be an impossibility, it is an evidence
that publishers have been generous
and broadminded in providing
means of communication, and it is
always up to the constituent to
write his member expressing ap.
proval or disapproval of measures or
men and to ask for any service that
can be consistently rendered. l
find the average member is glad to
receive such letters and the writer
is numbered among those who do.
