Local Football Team Takes Prize For

City High Piles Up 1o6 to Marshall
towns o-Seeond Team Badly Bat
tered.
With a team that could not be
classed properly as anything but sec
ond team, altho containing a few sub
stitutes Of the first team, Marshalltown
high school honors We're trampled in the
dust at Iowa City Saturday, when the
Iowa City high school rolled up total
of 106 points against Marshalltown's 0.
The game was a faSco Of the first
water before the first half was over
the score stood 81 to 0. The locals did
not expect to win; neither did they ex-
pect to make a showing. AS result
Of the play, however, the members of
the team were pretty badly battered
up, but no one was hurt seriously.
Coach Maricle said today that he
had tried to get a cancellation Of the
Iowa City game last week, in order to
save his already crippled first team for
the remaining three games at home.
When Iowa City refused to cancel, ow-
ing to tickets already sold, it was de-
cided to send a second team into the
game.
The personnel of the local team:
Left end. Halverson; left tackle,
Tweed; left guard, Peckham; center,
Ruth; right guard, G. Miller; right
tackle, Kirk; right end, McCreery;
quarter, l. Miller; left half, suter;
right half, McKibben; fuIlback, Cough.
The score Of 106 is the largest score
in Iowa this year, and the largest ever
scored against local team. Several
years ago the local high school team
piled up IA against Hampton in a
Thanksgiving day game, every man on
the team. including substitutes making
| touchdown. This was the record OF
football scores for a year, until the
University Of Michigan broke the rec
ord by scoring 14s against some small
team in a practice game.
The largest score previously made
against Marshalltown high school
team was II to 0, made by West Des
Moines in 1895. the first game the To-
calls had played. Later in the season
return game was played "a to o in
favor Of Des Moines.

REV. LEROY e. GALLAGHER GIVES
UP HIS WORK IN coNGRE.
GArioNAL CHURCH.
HAS BEEN PASTOR OF
CHURCH FOUR YEARS
Dsaffecton Within the Membership
Of the Church and III Health Of
ton = Gallagher Not Well Since
Wedding Day Accident.

Rev. Leroy E. Gallagher, for four
years pastor Of the Congregational
church at Green Mountain, and prior
to that time pastor of the Methodist
church at Laurel Sunday announced
his resignation to his congregation.
Rev. Mr.. Gallag hers action was
taken because Of different conditions.
Disaffection within the membership OF
his church, which came about last Win
ter, is contributory cause. In addi-
ton Mr.. Gallagher's health is not good
and he desires to take a rest.
While he announced that he did not
want to give up his work in Green
Mountain, he thought he had fulfilled
his mission with the church, and that
some other pastor could now do better
work.
Church Has Grown During Pastorate.
Mr.. Gallaghers pastorate at Green
Mountain has been successful, meas
ured by the standard Of country par
ishes. During his administration ex-
tensive repairs have been made to the
church property, and seventy members
have been added to the church.
Results Of Injury Perma
Rev. Mr.. Gallagher's health has not
been the best since he met with an
accident about seven years ago, on the
day Of his marriage to Miss Ida Reese.
while on his way from this city to
Green Mountain the team Mr.. Gal
lagher was driving ran away, throwing
out Gallagher and injuring him severe
ly.
Mr.. Gallagher said today: 1T is
largely owing to poor health that am
resigning my passionate. In addition to
the effects of my accident suffered a
severe attack of typhoid fever last
summer. This sapped my vitality. and
l have not been able to give my best
efforts to the work"

.PR0SPE Porous STATE
BEST BUSINESS CONDITIONS IN
COUNTRY IN WISCONSIN
NATIONS CROPS BELOW AVERAGE
and in This Section Above
Normal

! From a general letter on trade
conditions sent out by the Eau
Claire National Bank this week, we
note that a careful survey of con-
ditions all over the country discloses
the general business situation
throughout the country as better than
for some time past. Money is easier,
which will be good news to most of
our readers and the statement is
made that manufacturing and mer-
chandising lines should show steady
increases for the balance of the year.
The bulletin says that the total
production of all crops combined for
the year is fully ten per cent below
average, but in this section, at least,
of Wisconsin crops are all good and
if anything a little better than nor
NAL This means prosperity to upper
Wisconsin and on this line we note
the following in the letter that
speaks we'll for the conditions in
the Badger state in general:
"The BEST business conditions are
found in the north central states,
while conditions are poor in Mississ-
ippi, Alabama, Kentucky and Kan
sas as we'll as in portions of Tenn
essee, Oklahoma, Nebraska and South
Dakota. The most active states in
the country today are Minnesota,
Wisconsin and Michigan while that
portion of the country not mentioned
reports business to be about the av-
erage

The contract price of the tank
and tower, erected, complete with
foundations and frost-proof casing is
$5,902.00 The bid accepted was not
the lowest, but of the several bids
submitted it was next to the low
est and the tank furnished by this
company was thought by the COM
missioners and the city engineer to
be more than worth the difference.
Completion of the work by the 18th
of February is called for by the con-
tract.

Expert Marksman Here

David Flanagan, marksman and
rifle expert, representing the Peters
Cartridge Co., of Cincinnati, Ohio,
was here Monday afternoon and gave
an interesting exhibition of fancy
shooting on the shore of Corbett
lake. Quite a crowd gathered to wit
ness Mr.. Flannigan's work, which
was of high order. The exhibition con-
sisted of rifle, revolver and shot
gun work and it's purpose was to
demonstrate Peters ammunition. Mr.
Flanagan performed many difficult
feats.
