BIG sLUGGING MATCH

Ten hits, aided and abbetted by sew
en- errors Of a mechanical nature, to
say nothing OF myriads of mental mis-
cues, together with seven free tickets
to first, were the material factors In
the days work for the Indians yester-
day which resulted in total produc-
ton of eight runs as compared with
three made by eleven visitors from
Muscatine
Although the number of hits made
by the Indians was not as large as
that made by the Muskies. the locals
received seven walks, as before noted,
made two triples, and collected FIVE
pilfered sacks. This onslaught would
very likely have been strong enough
to have driven the rebels OF The lot
without the aid of the aforementioned
seven fizzles.
That Boyle's followers did not &C
emulate more than three scores from
their investment of twelve hits was
due partly 20 luck in the way their
slams came. partly to the fact that
their hits were fairly well scattered.
and partly to snappy fielding by the
home guards.

Visitors Have Bad Day.

The Indians runs were made from
hits, walks, stolen bases. and errors.
McNeeley, the visiting backstop, had
the worst day of any of his other
two bad ones seen here, and was re-
lieved by Lee in The fifth. The latter
did much more creditable work and
his team braced considerably after
ne went in the game.
The Indians have been stealing
bases almost at will off McNeeley who
has caught but two runners, while ten
stolen bases have been marked against
him. Just by comparison, the Mus
kies have stolen but one base off
Swee. during the series. that being
made after Harry hal stopped a
pitch that left him in position
where it was almost impossible for
him to make a good throw. Even

Cheape's absence from the lineup
for the first game is believed greatly
to weaken the challengers. Lord Vim.
borne, while heavisr, and John Trail
while also No. player. both lack
Cheapes remarkable ability to drive
and ride. Cheape's shots are noted
among British poloists for force and
accuracy. Hts loss is conceded to bs
serious blow to British chances.
While Lord Wimborne and Cheape
himself refused to go into details. It
is known that Cheape's eyes were
black med when back hand stroke
from the mallet whn H. c. Phipps
drove the ball into Cheape's face. Bad
vision is believed to have been the
consequence OF the blow and this. 1t
is thought, resultsd in the decision
that he would not be seen in the line
up for the nrst game.
Final Touches Put on Field.
On Meadow Brook field where the
big game will be played, all was ac-
'tivity today. The last touches were
being put to the stands and marques.
the field was being rolled ny an army
of workmen and all was being put In
readiness for this first OF the two
struggles which will decide the fate
of the cup.
The British poloists. except for
Cheape, left the Piping Rock stables
early today to put in last canter
over the Meadowbrook grounds.
Cheape was a guest OF the man whose
shot felled him. and did not turn out
for the last ride.
10000 Crowd Expected.
More than 10000 people are expect
ed to ses tomorrow's battle II the
weather is fine. New York's hotels
were filling up today with visitors
from all over the country, eager to
see what is expected to BE- one of the
most sensational and picturesque
sporting events of the year.
The American four. the two Water
burys. Dever Rux Milburn and Rene
Lamontagne, were not expected to
practice today as team though they
probably will indulge In limbering
up before night, either as members OF
scrub teams or in individual skirm-

FROM LONG TRIP
Canoe Trip Through Boundry
Lakes Extends Two Weeks;
Game Plentiful.

William Merrill, Frank Gilmore,
William Gowan, George Dixon, Thom-
as McGregor, James Costello and Earl
Gilmore, are back from a canoe trip
extending over two weeks through the
lakes and rivers on the northern
boundry of Minnesota, which Merrill
this morning described as one of the
grandest outings Of a ire;i!.,3 III,
majority Of the party are curisers VINO
have been looking over timber for
various of the logging companies of
northern Minnesota.
The party Travelled an estimated
distance of 400 miles on lakes and
rivers in canoes through a country
where game and fish abound, where
there are few settlers and where also
is located one Of the finest stands Of
pine timber in the state which will
soon be logged.
Mr.. Merrill states that in their trip
down lakes and rivers they saw moose
and deer in abundance. Il suppose we
sighted at least hundred moose"
said Mr.. Merrill this morning, "at
various points on the trip. The wealth
er was warm and the flies drove the
deer and moose to the water in large
numbers. Fish abound everywhere and
the trip is one of the prettiest imag-
inable."
Among the lakes traversed were
Kabetogema, Namakin, Sand Point,
Little Vermilion, Loon, LeCroix and
Iron lake, returning down the Mama
kin to Queticoke, Canada.

GROWTH OF CITY
IS INDICATED
IN VALUATIONS
Increase of Nearly Million Dal-
lars for Current Year Over
INTERESTING FIGURES
GIVEN BY ASSESSOR
How Virginia Is Forging Ahead
Shown by Comparisons for
Three Years.

The growth of the city of Virginia
as reflected in the increased real and
personal property valuations disclosed
from the figures just compiled by City
Assessor John R. Krogdahl indicates
that the chief city Of the ranges dur
ing the year just passed has amply
maintained the steady growth which
has characterized it for the past five
years.
The total real estate valuation for
the year 1914 is $11, 1,804,818, while the
value Of personal property is ST.
839 1868; totaling $13,643,681.
In 1910 the total valuation of real
estate was $10,860,098 and of person
al property $585,175, totaling $11,-
445,273.
In 1912 the value of real estate was
$11 ,957,270 and of personal property
$949,015, totalling $12,906,285.
That Virginia is a good town tc
live in and god town to tie to is in
dicated in the fact that personal prop
erty values have increased almost
100000 in the last year.
Assessor Krogdahl has practically
completed his work for the year.

VIRGINIA. TEAM
TO PLAT FARGO
HERE FRIDAY
Ore Diggers, In Crippled Condi.
ton, Have Lost Seven
Straight Battles.
WILL STAGE SEVEN
GAMES DURING STAY
Winnipeg, Grand Forks and Fort
William Still Have Contests
At Local Ball Yard.

Crippled, but full Of fight, the Vir-
ginia Ore Diggers will return home
tomorrow morning and open a three
game series with FargoM oMoorhead at
Oliver Park tomorrow afternoon. Yes
terday's defeat of the Virginia crew
by Winnipeg marks the seventh
straight loss for Sundheim's men.
While this looks very bad on paper
still it is not really just what it ap-
pears.
Virginia has been crippled ever
since leaving on the present road
trip. Center Fielder Brokaw has been
out of the game and his place has been
filled by utility players who are try
ing out for regular positions. Taking
one player out of well established
line up makes a great difference in
team play. This has been proven a
thousand times throughout the his
tory of the national sport.
Then, again, the luck has been
breaking the other way. In most OF
the games the Ore Diggers outhit and
outfielded their opponents but were
able to get only the small end of the
score. Such things happen to every
team and we are getting cure now
You can't beat it. 1t is a regular
feature of the fortunes of the game
But we are still in the first division
and with seven games to be staged
on the local lot, we are pretty sure
not only to stay there but to jump
back into third position. The wors
of the luck that could come our wa!
has already been delivered and from
now on we should sail.
After the Fargo-Moorhead serie
Winnipeg will come for three games
When these are finished there will
remain only seven more games to b
played here before the end of tn
season is ushered in. Fort William
still has series here and so has Gran
Forks. With these over the leagu
whistle will blow and the curtain vii
be rung down on the local Norther
league season for 1914.

BEARCAT FIGHT
AT LOCAL DEPOT
Intoxicated Laborers Resist Ar
rest and Give Officers
Fierce Battle

Two laborers who went to the D.
W. & P. depot shortly before noon in
a semi-intoxicated condition and en-
gagged in an alteration gave the
police officers and employees at the
D. w. & P. station a battle of the
bearcat. variety just before noon to-
day. They were finally overpowered
and taken to the police station.
The pair purchased tickets to Gheen
about 11:30 and later became involved
in dispute among themselves and
started rough house. The police
were summoned by the agent and
when they attempted to place the pair
under arrest one Of them ran while
the other remained to do manful
battle. He kicked and bit and
scratched and struck and did not leave
off until he was landed in a cell at
the headquarters station where he
was still inclined to be beligerent. The
officers overpowered him after a
sharp fight, however, and later picked
up his companion. The pair are
charged with drunkenness and resit-
ing an officer and will face Judge
Carey as soon as their condition with
regard to sobriety is sufficiently as
suring.

CUYUNA'S ORE IN DEMAND
New Minnesota Range May Furnish
Country's Supply of Maganese.

BRAINERD, Minn., Aug. 13.-In
view of the possible shortage of ferro-
manganese in this country as a result
of the interruption of shipments from
Europe, much interest is being shown
in the plans of the American Mangan-
ese Manufacturing company of Phila-
delphia. This corporation has two
subsidiary mines on the Guyana iron
range, the Guyana Mile Laos and the
Guyana Duluth, the furnaces being at
Dunbar, Pa.
With Russia and the Balkans ship
ping no manganese ore, the supply
will come from the Guyana iron range
or Crow Wing county, Minnesota.
The Dunbar furnaces have at pres
ent $4,000 tons of manganese ore
analyzing from 18 to % per cent in
manganese, sufficient to make about
5000 tons of 80 or 40 per cent ferro-
manganese. This ore is obtained from
the Cuyuna-Mille Lacs mine. The
iron and manganese contents run
about 60 per cent.
It is stated that at greater depths
than yet mined, manganiferous ore OF
IS to 40 per cent content is available
With the ore in sight the Dunbar
plant should be able to produce annu.
ally 10000 tons of ferro-manganese
in the event that a demand for such
a quantity should appear. At Cleve
land, perro-manganese has been quot
ed as high as $43 ton.

mitted having seen three men digging
in the cemetery at the time in ques-
ton but explained that he thought
they were merely making improve
ments on one of the lots.
