BASE BALL STAR
Inundated by a Young Store
Clerk at Spokane, Wash

Spokane, Wash, Feb. 14.-In the
presence of 10. 600 persons Rube Mar
guard, winner of 10 games straight
for the New York giants last year,
was BUNDLED at his own game by
George Crofoot, 19-yeaI- old clerk. The
famous pitcher is in Spokane filling
a vaudeville engagement.
Vanguard thought the time-honored
practice of catching a baseball thrown
from q skyscraper's top would be good
advertising for him, Electrically. All
went we'll. even to the proper advance
news notices on front pages.
The crowd came, 10, 900 strong, to
see the winner of two games in the
last worlds series display his proves.
1t was great, many said, to have a
real ball player perform away out
here so far from where real ball play
ers grow.
On the top Of a 14-story building
Rube's signal was received. The next
moment the ball came down. A second
of suspense, the ball crashed into the
glove of basket proportions. and
rolled ont.
Down came the second ball and the
giant stopped it, rather delayed its
progress. and again it dribbled through
tantalizingly. Someone suggested to
Marquarrd that he get a basket, but
the pitcher only smiled and prepared
for the third one.
When this one went through his
hands, there was q groan. Somewhat
piqued, Vanguard offered 800 to any.
one who would catch the ball.
AT this dramatic juncture entered
our hero. George Crofoot, who has
played ball in the brush neal Liberty
Lake. The first ball that came was
gathered ia easily by Crofoot, the
crowd cheered. Marquard frowned and
paid the 500, and when a moment
later the giant joined in the laugh
he was ''in solid once more.

the limit of estimated emf of the
state for the period, and if they ac.
complish this they will of necessity
cause disappointment to a ndmber of
the different institutions Of the state.
House bill $40. by Morgan is a bank
guaranty act. and besides the pro-
visions which require banks to come
under an assessment fund, as most
such acts require, it contains another
feature not found in such guaranty
acts passed by other states. 1t is one
which requires al! state banks which
have not placed themselves under che
assessment and benefit fund provided
by the law prior to January /, 1914,
shall oe required to execute a surety
bond to the state of South Dakota, in
trust for the depositors in the bank, in
a sum not less than so per cent of the
deposits of such bank, or deposit with
the state real estate securities, or gov
eminent, county or municipal bonds to
that amount, such securities to be APP
proved by the public examiner. This,
while making the law optional as to
whether Or not the banks bring them
selves under its provisions, yet compels
them TO secure their depositcrs in an
other name if they do not want to
get under the general provisions of the
act.

Aberdeen, Feb. 14.-The South Da.
kota Better Farming association and
Arthur Arnett. y local merchant, have
co operated in offering prizes to Brown

out the same idea on a little more
extensive scale. Farmers who comply
with the rules of the association and
enter the contest before May / are

THE LEGISLATURE
Net Output About Thirty-Five
Laws Bank Guaranty
Act Now On

Pierre, Feb. 14.-The net output of
the Legislative work up to now in the
way of laws and resolutions is com
pIised in eighteen acts which originated
in the house and sixteen which origin
ated in the senate. practically all of
them being small appropriation bills to
meet emergency situations. Governor
Byrne signed the state tax commission

for his taking action on such laws.
and will, under the provision of the
act, within ten days name the three
commissioners be has selected to eli

There was a tanRle over the Russell
bill to require county bonds to be
issued for twenty year periods. result
ing in tue bill going over. A tangle
over the Russell bill to prevent over
drafts on banks ended in SO many
amendments being tackled on that it
was indefinitely postponed on motion
of the %introducer.
Tie people of Rapid City are here
and secured the introduction of a bill
to legalize certain acts of their city
commission in regard TO water works
extensions, as they have found thai
they failed in one of the required steps
to get a legal ordinance, and a large
part of the work has been completed.
The house killed the measure to
allow increased privileges to legisla
tive members in naming scholarships
to the different state schools; and sent
the game bill back to the committee on
reconsideration, and the negotiable
instrument bill back to lay over for a
day to consider what it will look like
shorn of many of its principal features.
The members of the state board of
charities and corrections are in the
city to make their last summary to the
joint appropriation committees of the
two houses for the amounts they desire
for their different institutions for the
coming biennial period. The appro.
priation committees are grinding as
rapidly as possible to get the general
bill into shape, and TO shape up what
looks to them like practically neces.

institutions for the next two years.
and after that is finally worked out
