SOUTH DAKOTAN GETS
PENSION FOR SERVICE
in WAR WITH PRUSSIA
Award Comes After Lapse of
DC Years to Present Citizen
of Hamlin County.

Lake Norden s. d., July S.--AfteI
the lapse OF 46 years, Christopher Olson,
who for some years has lived ON q
Hamlin county farm, has been official
ly advised by the Danish government
that he has been granted a pension by
that country for service rendered while
soldier in the Danish army IN the
war OF 1863 with Prussia. Olson did
not make application for the pension.
IL appears that the officials OF the
Danish government in going over the
old army records, discovered that he
was entitled to a pension under the
laws or Denmark, and. after tracing
him to South Dakota and ascertaining
that he yet was in the land Of the

They were talking about the crook ed streets that characterize some of the older towns the other night. when Congressman J. Henry Cooke of Ohio, was reminded of the conversation be- tween Smith and Jones.
 Smith and Jones met in the smoke end of Pullman car one afternoon and during the gabfest that ensued Smith referred to the town into which he had just moved
 ''The streets of the blooming burg. he eloquently described. 'are the crookedest of anything in that line on the face of the earth.

TEMPE'S TWO
 RIVAL TEAMS
Pedagogues" or Normal and "Tempests'' of Union High Will Wage Baseball Battle on Normal Grounds Today

TEMPE, March 6.--In the first and possibly last game of the sA&son be- tween the two schools. Tempe high and the normal will fight it out on the latter's diamond tomorrow after
 noon. Both hines are in prime con- dition and equally confident of car rying off the laureIs of the day; particularly true is this with the Tempests who outclassed everything that they have been up against so far this year.
 Coach Jennings of the high school sees in the far distance the second gob of glory ever secured on the ball field by the high from the teachers school On the other hand the Peda gogues see only another addition to their string of victories Here is the probable lineup of the Tempests:
 | J. Moeur first base: Buck. second
 base; Brooks, third base; K. Moeur, shortstop: G. Hegi. left field; Har- l ris, center field; E. Hegi, right field.
 The Pedagosues will play these men:
 McCreary. catcher; Foster. pitcher;
 Griffin, first base; Hartranft. second base; McComb. third base: Capt. l F1annigan, shortstop; Dains, left i field; Spikes, center field: Hileman right field.
 l On the grand stand will be waged
 a second battle, rooters for the two schools will retain respective divi- sions on the grounds and under the | leadership of their rival yell leaders will root, root, root for the home
 teams.
 Play will be called on the normal grounds promptly at 3 o'clock.

PHOENIX HIGH TEAM TRIUMPH
Final score Was 46 to 16 ill Favor of Coyotes-Locals Not Forced to Extend Themselves Records Made

Phoenix Coyotes cleaned the Tenn
 pests in their track meet yesterday. It
 was the first dual meet of the early season. and the two teams entered the
 contest set on winning all the honors-
 In the end. there was but one first place for the southsiders while in one
 or two of the events, the Tempe men failed to place. Some of the time was good. In other events the time was slow, owing chief ly to the fact that the Coyotes were not pushed in their races. At times all they had to do was to stretch out and beat it. The Tempests just fol- lowed: they had no chance. and the Coyotes were never forced to register their best time, or to exert their great est energies. The following is the result of the races:

 The scheduled game between the Solons and Gems from Mesa City will follow immediately on the heels of The Republicans contest
 Mesa already has one contest from Phoenix and the Senators have claimed an equal one from the southsiders. It is therefore expected the game which will furnish the next to best enjoyment will be good one Each of the contests so far has been well worth seeing, and with the lineup of the Solons strength ened on the initial bag an even bet ter scrap will be seen.

JOCKEY MAYNARD BELIEVES : FIGHT GAME GAN COME BACK

 About Willie Ritchie
 In. letter l received from Willie Ritchie recently. the champion light weight states that he has entirely re- covered from the sprained tendon that put him. out of the running for some time. Ritchie states that the sting of the roasting he has received at the hands of some sporting editors, has made him feel badly and he is going to show these men that he is not d looking glass boxer but real cham pion He intends to take on every legitimate opponent in the country just as fast as the promoters will make matches
 He starts with his battle with Ad Wolgast this month and then will take on the others Willie states, however, that he is not going to battle for noth- ing. but will sign for any reasonable purse CT percentage. His argument is that he does not intend to be connect ed with the boxing game all his life and that he realizes that no champion lasts forever. He intends to gather the coin while the gathering is good.
 Ritchie is a gentlemanly fellow and makes friends wherever he goes. He does not squander his money and is a lad that takes good care of his par ents While he is saving of his coin, he is not stingy and he has done many charitable acts that few but his close friends know about. He is one boxer who can do a friend a favor without rushing to the press to get advertising out of the act.
 In my opinion there is not light weight in the country that has a chance to defeat Willie Ritchie. The champion is clever two handed boxer and has a stiff punch in either hand He is game to the core and is one of the shiftiest lIghtweights on his feet in the world. In fact Willie Rit- chic has everything that real boxer should have, and believe he will vel become exceedingly popular with the fans throughout the country.

More States Now Have Legalized Boxing Than at Any Time Since Sport Degenerated - Thin k s Ritchie Real Champ
(By Jockey Fred Maynard)

The boxing game is in a more healthy condition at present than at any time since I can remember. Box ing is legaliZed in more states at pres ent than ever before. and it is my opinion that before the year is over, several other states will have laws fla vorable to the Marquis of Queens bury game
 l am for the ten-round no-deciSion clause. which is being introduced in the majority of the bills designed to permit boxing. It does away with the gambling end of the sport, and this must be eliminated It is not so-call- ed refOrmers that prohibit the boxing game in the majority of cases but the slipping of something over that made even the fans sore.
 With no decision and boxing con- mission in charge of the game there is nothing to gain by pulling off a crooked battle. Some will say that with no decisions rendered boxers will stall. Let the promoter put a clause in the articles of agreement, that if they do not give satisfaction they are to forfeit their share of the receipts Every boxer that has ap- peared' at club where I acted as matchmaker. was compelled to sign an agreement. It is case of No fight. no money" at my club in Denver and only once have I been compelled to stop bout for want of action. At my club they must give the patrons a run for their coin and I don't care who the boxer is. whether he is a champion or preliminary boxer. he must deliver the goods It is the pa tron that keeps my club going and not the boxer. 1 can get all the box CTS l need to show. but if I don't pro- tect the patrons will soon be playing to empty seats. Get me?
 Legalized boxing is a business get ter for any city and conducted along the proper lines is not the brutal sport
