co. "A'' TEAM IN SECOND PLACE

Last week the annual company team
shoot was pulled off at Lake City. Co.
"a" was represented at the shoot by
Capt. B. Groebner, Sergt. VIM. Pfeiffer,
Sergt. John Sackel, Corpl. Herman
Kuehnel and Privates Henry J. Meyer,
Elmer Cordes, Lawrence Neumann, A.
J. Groebner and Forest English.
The competition shoot included slow
and rapid fire on the 200 and 800 yard
ranges and slow fire on the 500 and 600
yard ranges. In rapid fire shots must
be fired within 20 seconds and no sights
are used. In slow fire there is no time
limit. ...
Co. "A' landed in second place, Co.
'F" of Worthington leading them by
only points. Only nine of the twelve
companies were represented by teams.
It is claimed that the Worthington Com
pany recently recruited quite few good
shots which enabled them to win the
pennant. For the regimental team shoot
which took place Monday Sergeants
Pfeiffer and Sackl and Privates Cordes,
Neumannn and Meyer were selected.
The balance of the Company team
returned Saturday evening, in time to
take part in the military parade and pic
mic Sunday.

COLLEGIANS WIN ANOTHER

Last Tuesdays game between the Col
legians and the Professionals was pitch
er's battle with Huevelmann and Coach
Seifert doing the honors. Seifert's bat
terry mate, young Brunner, did not give
him the support which @'Cy'' Groebner
accorded Huevelmann so the Colleeians
won by to.1 score. Errors by McHale
and Seifert, walk and passed ball gave
the Collegians a run in the first inning.
With one out in the third L. Seifert walk
ed, went to third on Groebner's single to
right and scored on another passed ball.
A wild throw by Drummer allowed Groeb-
ner to chalk up the third and last score for
the Collegians. The Professionals did
not get a good chance to score until the
sixth when Berg reached second on Z. Sei-
fert's wild peg to first and counted on a.
Seifert's blow to right.

NEW ULM TO MANKATo SUNDAY

Believing that they are fully capable
of defeating the Mankato team which has
beaten them the last two Sundays the
New Ulm Athletics will run down to
Mankato again next Sunday and en-
deavor to trim them up. If Pfeiffer and
Cordes have returned from Lake City
by that time the local squad will look
considerably better and chances to win
the contest appear even. The batteries
for the. two teams will undoubtedly be
the same as last Sunday, Crawford and
Hodgins for New Ulm and Spencer and
Nicholson for Mankato. Claude Ross
man will play first base for New Ulm
again. If the weather is good q large

Williams and Rossman popped up high
ones to McC Cleary and w. Hodgins foyced
Fried at second. H. Williams drew a
walk in the fifth with one gone but died
there when Dahms struck out and Craw
ford was thrown out, G. Nicholson to
Morrow. The next and last man to
break thru the barrier of Spencer's
mastery pitching was Crawford, who
singled to right with two out in the
eighth. Wade's fly to center was handl-
ed by A. Peterson.

LOSE AGAIN.

A triple play in the last inning won the
game for the Builders against the Profess
sionals Wednesday evening, the final
score being to 2. Mueller was in the
box for the Professionals and pitched good
ball but received poor support. The Pro-
fessionals took the lead in the very first
inning, an error, a hit batsman and hits
by Minium and Mather giving them two
runs. Four errors and walk gave the
Builders three runs and the lead in the
third frame In the fourth the Builders
scored two more on walk, singles byWai-
bel and Joyce and an error. The Profes-
sionals were turned back in the fourth by
double play but they made final at
tempt to grab the bacon in the fifth. AT
ter the first two men up, Martinka and
Guentner, walked, Mueller came to bat.
He hoisted a long fly to right and the base
runners sped around the paths, never ex-
pecting Joyce to make the catch. Joyce
got the ball on the run, threw to Waibel
on first, who tossed the ball to second and
retired the side.

R1J1LDERS SHUTOUT POSTOFFICE
TEAM.

A. V. Seifert's foozle of an easy
throw in the first inning OF the Thurs
day evening game between the Builders
and the Post Office club enabled the Car
penters to score the only run OF the game
and prevented the Government crew from
breaking into the win column. With one
down in the first inning Schapekahm was
safe on Seifert's error and went to third
when Waibel dropped single IN right.
Guentner let loose wild pitch and Schap-
ekahm counted. In the second Guentner
hit two men with two out and then tanned
the next batter. Only two other Builders
reached the initial corner.
Schapekahm did the twirling for the
Builders and his work rivalled the best
seen in the league this season. Only one
man reached first base a scratch hit by
Guentner in the first inning. 1t could
have been marked an error as easily as
hit. Schapekahm was as coy and bashtul
as a sweet girl graduate and ducked for
the showers in the clubhouse Immediately
after the game without waiting for the
congratulations and applause of the fans.
It was the first shutout game OF the year
in the Twilight League.

EAST LYNNE" IN THE MOVIES.

The most notable offering of the hour
in local theatricals is announced for Aug.
29th at the American Theatre where the
Carp Portman Amusement Enterprises
will exhibit that wonderful emotion
picture" revival of the east Lynne" +"
These pictures were enacted by a COM
pany of dramatic players of note amid the
beautiful natural scenery of the Severn
River valley in Western England, where
Mrs. Wood designated the locale of her
undying classic of love and romance.
AS moving picture it marks a new
era, for it is the first attempt that has
been made to portray emotion upon the
screen. Hitherto motion pictures have
been devoted to spectacular subjects
depending upon multiplicity and rapid
ty of incident for effectiveness. East
Lynne is not spectacular; it is simply
sweet, beautiful and pathetic-the great
est love drama ever written. Hence it
is easy to understand it's popularity, for
next to the bible, Mrs. Woods great work
has been translated into more languages
than any other book ever written.
An appropriate musical setting has
been provided for the revival with the
result that it will in every way approx
mate and eclipse dramatic perform
ance.
The Carp Portman Co. at a great ex-
pense have made it possible for the people
of New Ulm to view this wonderful
masterpiece of motion photography.
The price of admission for East Lynne
have been placed at 10c and Zoe and
everyone. should avail them selves of the
opportunity. Of witnessing the produc-
ton. It comes direct from success
full run in all the large cities of the East
where it was played to crowded houses at
Csc, SOC, and 75c.
The picture is in 8 acts, 1T scenes ano
1000 feet of film. Performances viii
start promptly at 7:15 and 8:45. adv

BUILDERS PULL DOWN BARRIERS

In contest that was exciting right to
the finish the Builders defeated the Bar
bers Monday night by score of 4 to 8,
the defeat dislodging the BARRIERS from
second place in the Twilight league.
Guentner was on the mound for the Bar
bers, allowing six hits and tanning five in
the five innings. Schapekahm, who is
rapidly coming to the front as the leagues
premier twirler, did the slab work for the
winners, allowing four bingles and whiff-
ing an even dozen. A number of excel
lent plays were pulled off during the game
Coach Seifert, Builder first baseman,
stabbed couple of wild pegs with one
mitt and threw out Vogel at third in the
opening round. Vogel nipped couple
of hard line drives in left field and the
baserunning of "Henny'' Ahrens also
featured the contest.
Singles by Regali and Williams, an
error and couple of sacrifices gave the
Builders two runs in the first inning.
They had chances in the second, third
and fourth innings but reckless base
running prevented success. Lindemann,
first up for the BARRIERS, walked and was
snuffed out stealing second. Vogel also
walked and Backer singled to right.
Vogel being pegged out at third. Guent-
ners strikeout ended the inning. Vogel
doubled to center with two down in the
third but Backer rolled to Schapekahm.

the fourth with single and stole second
and third, scoring on a passed ball.
With two out H. Ahrens singled and went
to second on Schapekahm's wild throw to
first. Ahrens stole third and w. Arndt
walked and stole second. Ahrens then
drew throw to third, scoring on the wild
peg and tieing the count. A double, a
single, error and a pair of fielder's
choices gave the Builders two in the fifth.
Schapekahm walked Lindemann in the
last Of the fifth and two were on when
Vogel was safe on an error Backer and
Guentner struck out and Lindemann
counted on wild pitch. H. Arndt walk

EVERS' CONDITION IMPROVES
Physicians Declare Braves Captain in
No Immediate Danger

New York, Dec. 12.-The condition
of Johnny Evers, captain of the Boston
National League baseball club, who is
confined in local hotel suffering from
pneumonia, was reported as unchanged
yesterday. The physicians in attendance
assured President Gaffney, of the club,
that the Braves second baseman was
in no immediate danger. According to
this statement, Evers, while not entire
ly out of danger, is resting comfortably
and there is no occasion for alarm re-
garding his condition.
His wife, who arrived from Troy
Thursday night, is at his bedside, and
several friends and officials of the Bos-
ton Club are at the hotel. Although
Evers expressed desire to return to his
home yesterday, no attempt will be
made to move him for several days, or
such time as the physicians are assured
that his request can be granted with
safety.
Telegrams of sympathy and inquiry
regarding the condition of the Braves
star inielder have been received in
large numbers from all parts of the
country, and are being answered by the
Boston Club officials as promptly as
possible.

years abroad. In a letter to the Har.

"My idea of the best cure for this

a regular baseball league in Europe,

werp, etc, participating, as well as a
minor league taking in Belgrade, Brus-

fans would never have tolerated the
breaking out of this war during the
baseball season, and if they had post
pohed it until the world 8 series was
over it would have given them all time
to cool off, and they probably would
not have had any war. They say that
baseball has done more to civilize the
Philippines than the American army,
constabularies and missionaries put to.

The stadium fever continues to
spread throughout the land Philadel-
phia and Chicago civic associations are
now discussing the feasibility of erect.
ing immensive structures capable of
seating 100000 spectators. 1t is the
idea of those fostering the plans that
stadiums of this size can be used for
many purposes, such as big football
games, track meets, pageants, choral
festivities and military displays. The
estimated cost ranges from one to two
million dollars and the receipts, on pa.
per at least, are expected to equal all
disbursements in the course of few
years.
