SOUTH AMERICA
EAGER FOR TOUR
Would Extend Warm Welcome to
Visiting Ball Teams

New York, May 5.-The sporting
clubs I'm South American cities have
already become interested in the pro-
posed invasion of the major league
baseball CLUBS which has been sug-
gested for the fall of 1915. Word has
been received here that the project is
expected to be success and that the
enthusiasm for baseball in South AM
erica runs high. Manager McGraw
said that ii was the idea of the pro-
moters of the proposed trip TO end the
tour on the Pacific coast before the
closing of the Panama exposition in
1915.
The latest suggestion for the tour is
to have the two clubs made up of the
star players of both leagues, play a
few exhibition games i'm the east and
south after the worlds series and
then go to Cuba. The itinerary would
and from there to South America,
playing in the leading cities on both
sides of the continent. The plan is to
travel down the east side and come
north on the west side of South Am
erica.
Then longer stay could be made AT
Panama, playing in all the principal
places in the canal zone, where the
numerous Americans would welcome
the baseball teams.
From here il is planned to go to tho
Pacific coast and play in several cities
i'm California before the close of the
big fair. AS the trip is now proposed
the baseball party would be sure tC
meet favorable weather conditions
throughout the trip.

Ban Johnson. president of the Am

the Detroit team Referring to ii, he
said recently:
Certainly the Detroit team of 1914
is big Improvement over the team
of 1913 and there isn't any question n
my mind but that the club is much
stronger than any Detroit team since
1909" declared the big boss of organ
lied baseball. Detroit is certainly
fortunate I'm picking up two regular
infeldcrs of the calbcr of kavanagh
and Burns. These fellows are fine
players right now and they will surely
will improve with experience"
Detroit has a great chance for the
pennant and If the Tigers keep play
ing in the style they have shown thus
far this season the other clubs of .hc
circuit will have q hard time stopping
them"
II am satisfied with the progress the
American league has made this sea

Ice House Burned.

Friday morning the Lane Bros. ice
house, southwest of West Union on
tine Rock Island track, was complete.
~ destroyed by fire.
About $3.50 Harvey Lane, who
was working around the engine room,
east of the ice house, discovered the
fire in the main building and in his
endeavor to extinguish the flames
was severity burned on the hands,
face and head. He is now very i'll as
a result and unable to give clear
account of how ne received his injur-
les. At the time Of the fire he was
wearing heavy wool sweater and
this probably caught fire, causing the
burns.
The ice house was 100 feet long
and so feet wide and was erected
several years ago at an expense OF
$4,000. There was no insurance on
the building. The engine house was
also destroyed and the engine dam
aged beyond repair.

Spirit.

November % to 81 has been pro-
claimed Greater Iowa week by Gov

will be set aside IS one for the boost
ing of Iowa's agricultural, industrial
and educational expansion. Gov
Clarke says:
Il urge upon the people that they
give attention and attend the meet
ings, that they assist in the funda-
mental purpose of the Greater Iowa
association to develop a greater Iowa
in all the word means. 1t is urged
that they assist in developing a bet
ter and greater citizenship, a state
greater through intensified agricul-

Joseph Hayes Meets Death.

Joseph F. Mayes was found dead
Saturday at about 11:40 p. m, in
the road a short distance from his
home near Days Flats. 1t is
thought that death was due to heart
failure, but that and the particulars
of the accident can be solved by con-
lecture only.
Mrs. Hayes was at home alone
awaiting his arrival, as he was
bringing a wagon load of cement
from Cresco. Hearing the team
come up to the house, she went out
side expecting TO find her husband
awaiting her, but found the horses
were driverless. Still, she did not
really think Of an accident, but
thought he had sent them on and
would follow, and she started out to
meet him. Upon arriving at the
foot of the hill nearby, she discov-
cred his lifeless body. The shock
was a terrible one and Mrs. Hayes
and two little sons, Philip and Joe,
have the sympathy of the entire
community.
A number OF theories are adj
vanced as to the accident. He was
found at the foot of very steep
hill, and as one chain was partly
fastened On a wheel of the wagon
and his whip was found at the top
of the hill, it is thought that he
stopped to put the chains on the
wagon before attempting to take the
heavy load down the steep grade.
In some manner, perhaps in climb
ing in or out of the wagon, he fell,
striking his jaw and shoulder on the
ground. This theory is founded on
the fact that his jaw bone was brok-
en- and one shoulder bruised. There
was also evidence that he had been
dragged for some distance, his cloth
ing caught On the wagon In some
manner, which accounts for his be-
ing found at the foot of the hill. AS
he had been subject to heart failure,
and no evidence of the direct cause
of death could be discovered, 1t Is
advanced as the most probable the
DRY that the shock of the fall caused
an attack which resulted in death.
Funeral services were held at
1890 a. M, Tuesday, Nov. 3, at the
Catholic church at Days Flats, and
burial was at the cemetery there
Cresco Times.
