Mile Lacs' LARGEST Craft.

Years ago several good sized craft
plowed the waters of Mile Laos lake
and found business to do. But not.
withstanding the increase in popu.
lation around the shores of the ssbie
pond" the larger vessels seem tc
have disappeared-one by one have
they been removed elsewhere. It
does seem as if a safe steamer OF
moderate dimensions might do a
profitable business Gu the lake in the
summer months if it was properly
advertised. ..
But, it seems, according to the Isle
Advance, that freight barge Is the
best the big lake can afford this year.
mat paper says, Jerry Kilme1
launched his barge last Friday and
has started to haul hoops from Nal
mo. He arrived with his first load
last Monday. Jerry has the only
boat that is plying the waters of
Mile Laos lake this summer and ex-
poets busy year He informs us he
has all the hoops on the east side to
haul which will run into many car
loads. He also expects to haul pota-
toes and other freight making Isle
the distributing point for the lake
transportation.

New Manager for Ball Team.

Harry Davis, who accepted the
management Of the Princeton ball
team temporarily, has been relieved
Of the arduous duties connected
with a position of that kind and
Claire Smith is now at the helm.
Davis made an aggressive manager
and the ball team did not go back
any while he was on the job.
Claire Smith who has been selected as
successor to Davis, can be de-
pended upon to put forth his best
efforts towards maintaining a win
ming ball team in Princeton, and he
should have the hearty cooperation
of the fans and players.

NOTES..

Princeton is certainly putting uE
the real goods in the base ball line
and the team that can take Their
measure will certainly have to travel
some.
Doane did the star work in the field
for Princeton and he accepted one
chance that was especially difficult.
princeton was exceptionally strong
with the stick last Sunday. NAL
lette, in particular, had his batting
eye with him and he slammed out
four clean drives out of five trips to
the plate. Davis and Smith were
next, as each of them poled out
three safe bingles, and Wilkes and
Roos each contributed two safe
drives to the days total.
Plaas and Cravens attended to the
umpiring and, needless to say, this
portion of the work. was in able
hands. 80
Next Saturday and, Sunday the
speedy Grown team of Minneapolis
will play series of two games with
Princeton and it is safe to say that
both these contests will be mighty
close. The Crowns -ase the Min

Visit Friends in This VICINITY.

Mr.. and Mrs John Shannon and
three daughters, Viola, Karan and
Edna, of Fosston have been visiting
friends in this vicinity--they former
ly resided on farm east of Prince
ton. They are making rather ex-
tensive automobile tour and expect
to visit various points in Iowa before
returning to their home. Mr.. Shan
non operates aelarge farm near Foss-
ton and he stated to a Union repor-
ter that crops were looking fine in
that vicinity at the time he de-
parted, which was a couple Of weeks
ago. However, be feared consider
able damage would result if as much
rain had fallen il that vicinity as

Good Roads Day.

Tuesday, June %, was Good Roads
Day and it was observed in several
cities and villages throughout the
state. 1t is to be hoped that in
time the citizens of practically every
community within the borders of the
state will devote one day of the
year to road labor.
At Bemidji one hundred Of the
business and professional men of
that city turned out and put in the
entire day on the roads leading into
that thriving little city and as a re-
suit over twenty miles Of highway
was graded. repaired and placed in
frst-class shape. The crowd was d.
vided into three crews and each man
did his work well. The Bemidji cit
liens plan to make this an annual
event and by next year hope to also
interest the farmers in the move
ment.
Thief River Falls, another hust-
ling northern Minnesota town, also
observed the day and as a result the
roads in that vicinity are vastly i'm
proved. Teams were hired for. the
purpose of travelling some of the ex-
tremely bad places, and the crew de-
voted its time to the levelling Of
pitch holes, etc. The farmers were
also enlisted in the good cause and
seemed to be even more enthusiastic
than their city cousins Some long
stretches of road were gravelled by
the farmers.
Other cities and villages in the
state also observed the day and their
efforts to better the highways will
be amply rewarded, as good roads
mean everything to community.

Naturalization.

A very pretty wedding was solem-
nized at the residence Of Mrs. James
Atchison, 25l4, Both Ave, S., Min
neapolis, last Sunday afternoon at
4 o'clock, when her daughter, Louise
Clarice, was united in wedlock to
Leon W. Nicely of Anoka. The cere-
mony was performed by Rev. Noren
of the Bethany Lutheran church in
the presence of a few chosen friends
and relatives. The bride was at
tired in a gown of shadow lace over
white satin and was attended by
Miss Anna Sward Of Anoka.E as
bridesmaid. The bridesmaids gown
was of white null trimmed with
shadow lace. Ralph Carr, formerly
of Princeton, was groomsman. I'm.
nediately after. the ceremony and
congratulations we're over with, the
bridal party and invited guests re.
paired to the dining room, where a
sumptuous wedding dinner was in
readiness. ...
The newly married couple arrived
in Princeton Monday evening and at.
ter short visit here with friends
they will leave for Anoka, where
they will reside.

Victims of Assassin.

While driving through the streets
Of Serajevo, the Bosnian capital,
Archduke Francis Ferdinand, heir
to the Austro Hungarian throne,
and his morganatic wife, the duchess
of Hohenberg, were assassinated last
Sunday. A youthful Servian STU
dent fired the shots and he was
quickly captured. Earlier in the day
a bomb had been thrown at the au-
tomobile in which the archduke and
his wife were riding, but as the
duke had been forewarned of a pos
sible attempt against his life, he
was watchful and struck the missive
aside with his arm. It fell under an
automobile which carried members
of his suite, wounding Count Won
Boos Waldeck and Colonel Merizzo.
The governor of the city was with
the royal couple at the time of the
assassination but escaped injury.
Archduke Charles Francis Joseph,
son of the late Archduke Otto, is
now heir presumptive to the throne
and he is extremely popular with all
classes. 1t is not thought that the
assassination of Archduke Francis
Ferdinand will cause a political up
heaval, as the old emperor has kept
the reins of government in his own
hands, delegating as little power as
possible to his late nephe Vt is
generally believed that if the new
heir zpresumptiye is given a. fair
chance he is likely to prove second
Emperor Francis Joseph and that
under his future rule affairs in Aus
tria and Hungary, both foreign and
domestic, will take the same
course as during the present reign.

The Farmer Most Benefited.

We are pleased to notice the defeat
OF DR.. Gates of Kenyon for senator
from Goodhue county. He made his
platform the repeal of the Dunn
road law. Any Intelligent man who
made that his platform is not the
right sort to represent the people in
the legislature. The law has not
been tested. Let us try it. When
men learn to know the law. as it is,
they will not oppose it. There is no
man benefited by it like the farmer,
and none should be. He is the one
who needs good roads most.-Le

Hard Work is What Counts

You watch the successful men
about you, keep track of the hours
that they work: and you will agree
that they labor much harder than
the average man. 1t seems to. be
the penalty that success brings
much work and little pleasure. But
it also teaches the lesson that the
fellow who is waiting for the whistle
to blow does not get very far on the
pathway of success. -Biwabik Times.

LOCALS ARE VICT0RS.
Oakleys of Minneapolis are Defeated
by a Score of III to at Fair
Grounds Last Sunday.
Speedy Crown Team of Minneapolis
Will Oppose Princeton Next s.
Saturday and Sunday.

The Oakleys Of Minneapolis never
had a look-in when they opposed the
local aspirants to base ball honors
and they were handed a most thor
ough and decisive defeat at the fair
grounds last Sunday. The final score
was II to 2 and Princeton was in the
lead at every stage of the game.
Wilkes was on the firing line for
Princeton and the big..fellow was in
great form. Five widely scattered
blows was all that the visitors could
collect off from his delivery and he
retired ten by the strikeout route.
Skahen was at the receiving end
and performed in classy style.
Bausch did the heavy work for the
Oakleys and his offerings were most
acceptable to the Princetonians.
Fifteen clean drives were poled out
by the locals and most of the hits
came at opportune moments. Bausch
was a rather formidable appearing
slab artist, but he couldn t begin to
stop the frenzied onslaught of the
Princeton athletes, and he had a
rather difficult time of it. Fred
Johnson, who was remembered by
numerous local fans as the star per-
former on last years Cambridge
team. was at the receiving station
and caught a good game.
Ho1- IL rsl
bat and but four men faced Wilkes
and they were retired scoreless. Bill
Roos was first up for the locals and
he secured walk and stole second.
Mallette came next and leaned on
one for a safe drive that scored Roos
and carried Mallette to second base
Berg was retired on an infeld
grounder and Davis, who was next,
connected for a corking line drive
that scored Mallette. Smith, who
preceded Davis, was retired at Sc
cond base and the side was retired
when Doane sent hot grounder
down to the pitcher.
The visitors were again retired
scoreless in the second inning and
Princeton annexed another score in
their half. With two men down
Wilkes connected for a safe one that
carried him to second base, and he
scored when Roos poled out hot
liner over the infeld.
In the third inning the visitors
secured their only runs of the game,
when al error, base on balls and
some wild throwing netted them
two runs. Princeton was BANKED in
their half and for moment it looked
as if the game was going to develop
into a close contest.
The locals came back strong in the
fourth inning and secured three
more runs, by some timely hitting
aided by couple of errors on the
part of the visitors. Another score
was added to the total in the fifth
inning and then-it was readily seen
that the only question was how
large d lead the locals would secure
over the VISITORS
The registering station was not
crossed in the sixth and seventh in
nings, but in the eighth inning the
locals fairly pulverized the ball and
wound up the contest in a blaze of
glory. Mallette, Berg, Smith and
Davis poled out four hits in rapid
succession, and these hits coupled
with some errors netted three runs
and the game ended with the score
standing II to in favor of Prince
