Photographers Swarm Field.
Hank" Gowdy drove a fly into the
bleachers on his first time up in the
swatting exercises. Photographers
swarmed about the Braves, swapping
them in all positions. None objected
to this ceremony but the Athletics ap-
peared to be more particular. Stu1y
McInnis deliberately showed away one
photographer, who sought to take his
picture, evidently fearing the old
hoodoo which some players believe
follows posing before big game.
The crowd continued to pour in but
at 40 the grand stand was hardly
more than a third filed. The band
persisted in grinding out all popular
airs in It's kit, while three cabaret
singers, armed with megaphones.

period at least when Johnny Evers

of cameras with clasped hands.
Neither radiated the war like feeling

Braves Watch Macks.
AS the Braves worked out easily on
their side of the field, they kept an
eve on the Mackian artillery as it
hammered away at the easy floaters
of Thomas. Crowds extended for
blocks from the ball park at 1880
and there was a constant stream into
the grand stand seats. The indica-
tions at this hour pointed to crowd
OF at least $4,000. The apartment
house owners about the ball park got
the best OF Director Porter as to the
safety Of their bleachers mounted on
the roofs. AS a result every house
has it's bleacher seats and they filed
rapidly.
While Capt. Evers and Ira Thomas
were having their final conference
with the umpires, the crowd was
still arriving but there were scores OF
empty seats in the right field grand

NEW METHOD
WITH INDIANS
GIVE INDIAN BOYS SHARE IN
CROPS ON SACATON RESERVA-
TION AND INCULCATES FEELIN
OF INDEPENDENCE.

w. O. Hodgson, who has been in
the Indian service for the past ten
years, and is now attending the Uni
versity Farmers Short Course, talks
interestingly, according to the Star,
of the methods he applies at Sacaton,
Arizona, where he is supervisor of
the Indian service farms there.
''The lack of individuality and the
lack of method in developing this
quality in the Indian caused me to
recommend the system which is now
being used on the Pima Indian Res
ervation. To give the boys in
dividuality, l established the method
of giving every two boys ten acres
of ground. One will work this privat
ground in the morning, the other in
the afternoon, while the first lad is
working on the government farm.
started six of the private farms with
twelve boys and each small farm was
sown, one acre of wheat, one acre
of cotton ,one acre of vegetables, two
acres of oats and three acres of al
falfa. After the wheat and oats crop
had been harvested this land was
sown in corn.
Each boy is boss on his ground and
when he has some work to do which
he cannot do alone he calls upon
his neighbor to help him. When
they are working on his ground he is
the proprietor, thus giving the boy
ability to manage a farm for himself.
When the first boys neighbor needs
help he has to pay back what he has
borrowed When the boys find they
can manage their small farm they
feel that they can manage one for
themselves when they go home in
the summer, and what they have don
they can do again. They thus becom
independent, instead of having to have
some one to tell them how to do
things.
'"The system is found to be success
full in every way one can look at 1t.
The yield of land used in this way
was twice as much as it was when
used by the government in great
fields. The Indian boy who raises a
crop in this way gets one-fourth OF
the yield and because of this they
take pride in producing the best crop
possible The thing that appeals to
the service in this is not the financial
end but the fact that it helps the In
dian to become individual in his
methods and makes him a good farm
err
From the success of this venture
the government is going to establish
the system in all of the reservations.
Mr. Hodgson has been asked to go to
all of the reservations and inaugerate
his method
Mr.. .Hodgson has served for the last
ten years in the Indian service and
has worked with many different
tribes. Before coming to the Pima
Indians here he was with the Nava-
joes to whom he was doctor, advisor,
Judge and jury He was highly es-
teemed by the tribe and because of
his gray head was named by them

bismarck Gazette,l
The Burk and Hobbs meeting has
completely swept the entire town and
surrounding community. Never be-
fore in the history Of the town has
there been such a revival of religion.
More than 200 have signified their in
tention to lead q Christian life. One
significant fact is that a large majori-
ty of the converts are men of infn-
ence and young men.
A Mems Gospel Team has been or
ganized with about 140 members, who
are doing personal work in the meet
ing and after the meeting is over they
will continue their organization and
efforts in the line of all kinds of Chris
tian and social service for a better
Bismarck. The town has already a
much better moral tone and a much
closer cooperation among it's citizens.
The incidental expenses OF the
meeting have been secured by the ev-
ening offerings and the committee
having this in charge are Q thar
pleased with the results.
The meeting will close Sunday nigh
and the evangelists will go to theil
home in Kansas City for a few days
rest, after which they will go to I'LL
nois for a meeting unless they change
their plans and consider a call from
Harrington which has put in a very
strong invitation for them to come
and hold a meeting there.
All Of the churches have beer
greatly strengthened in numbers ant
in zeal. The Sunday schools have al
most doubled and everv good move
ment has been advanced.
