Totally Destroyed at Vail Mon
day-GasoIine Isnited.

A motorcycle which was being rid
den across country by Minneapolis
youth became ignited in Il garage at
Vail Monday evening and before the
flames could be eNtinguished. the ma
chine was totally destroyed.
The tourist arrived at Vail shortly
before dark and decided to make an
over night stop there and took his
machine to the garage. lie told the
garage man to I'LL the tank on the
machine with gasoline. This was done
and as some of the gasoline was left
it was poured over the engine to re-
move the grease. The owner in order
to make some adjustments struck a
match which resulted in igniting the
gosoline and within an instant the
machine was one mass of flames. 1t
was pushed out of the garage into tho
street where it burned for over a hall
hour before they were able to put
out the flames.
1t is fortunate that the gasoline tank

Band Plays Stirring Music
Visit Charter Oak, SchIeswia

The little city of Manning can al
ways be relied upon when it comes to
boosting for anything pertaining to
Manning. This booster spirit was
strongly in evidence yesterday, when
nine automobiles, carrying forty boost
ers, made a tour of Crawford county
boosting for harvest festival and old
soldiers reunion, which will be held
at Manning August 10Th, 3Oth and
3lst. The boosters were headed by
Mayor Ed Farrell, assisted by such
men as John J. kruse. II. C. Claussen,
Henry Rohwer and Gus Rober.
Thompson's band also accompanied
the boosters as did a number of young
ladies.
Reaching Denison about l O'Clock,
the party was Joined by Emil Miller,
former Manningite, and trip to
Schleswig, Ricketts, and Charter Oak
was made. In all the nine cars COW
cred better than 100 miles and at ev-
cry stop the band played and the
boosters advertised their festival by
the use of printed matter and visiting.
The old soldiers reunion will be at
tended by many. as the district COM
prises all of western Iowa and eastern
Nebraska, and the harvest festival
will furnish all kinds of entertainment
for the old fellows.
Again, Manning business men have
the spirit and boost all the time.

The building is to be built of brick
and the contractors are to sumbit

Wall Lake was the first team that
was brought down to defeat on last
Wednesday, and before the game was

the fact that they were up against a
real ball team. 1t had been supposed
that Tut" Faul would do the twirl-

crowd of enthusiastic fans turned out
to watch his work Faul. however,

Wall Lake was saving him for a game
later in the week, but Tut" was
pressed into service in the eighth in

inning the balloon went up and before
Wall Lake recovered from the heavy

bunch Of players and were Outclassed
from every standpoint. Kelly, OF Ar
cadia, did the pitching for DenisOn and
was in fine form and had excellent
made the first score for Denison in the
first inning and it was then evident
that Denison meant business. In the
fourth inning Denison scored again,
when Barney Otto crossed the home
plate. Catcher Doss made score in
the sixth, but in the eighth the runs
came faster and before the third man
had been retired four more runs were
chalked up in Denisons favor. While
Carroll played good game, they were
unable 10 swat the fast balls that were
served to them by Kelly and had to
be contentCd with four runs 1t is to

of the decisions made by the umpire.

Baseball Notes.
A game Is scheduled for tomorrow
with Logan. This will be good fast
game and everyone should turn out.
Wygant made two of the six runs
in the game with Wall Lake. Ronald is
a good hitter and safe base runner.
Mote is doing some good work at
second. He did some great hitting
during the last two games.
The grand stand was packed to it's
capacity at the Carroll game.
Richardson is making some great
catches out in left field and is hitting
even better than last year.
Barney Otto could not be improved
upon at third base. He is an all
around ball player and knows the
game.
Manager Wright seems to be the
best player on the side lines this year.
Leo Collins is playing great ball this
year. With more batting practice he
could be improved.

Fleets Not Ready for Clash.

Sensational rumors of terrific battle in the North
Sea between the Dreadnoughts of England and Ger
many were proven false yesterday, as most naval
authorities expected they would be, by announce
ment by the British admiralty. If this greatest naval
engagement of all history is to be fought it will in
all probability, not take place for some weeks, or
possibly months when it will be battle for food
reasonably certain that the British feet is in the
North Sea- with the Russian ships presumably in the
Baltic Unless sooner brought together by shifting
circumstances of war; it is natural to suppose that
the clash of fleets will come only when Germany is
forced to attempt to clear the way for ships laden
with food supplies, else, fortified and emboldened
by successes undertakes to cut of the supply of Eng
land and France. Germany and Austria-Hungary
possess an advantage over England and France in
the superiority of their own food resources but with
the war prolonged, they will eventually be compelled
to look beyond their own borders for aid in sub
sistence Supremacy on the then will be the all
important factor.
With no great tragedy to record, the cables
tell of increasing horrors in the Lege district and
the world stands amazed at the fighting qualities dis
played by the indomtable Belgians in resisting the
German advance. In withstanding the shock so long
they have signal victory for the German legions
must meet the advancing French shattered and battle
worn.
The eyes of the whole world must still be turned
to Liege which, for many days to come, is likely to
be the center of the war map.

paper published in the State Of Kansas.
He was a profound believer In the value
Of editorial publicity.
His colleague. Senator ingalls,. who.
like Senator Plumb, began life in news
paper work, read but few newspapers.
but those which were taken by him were
read diligently. His purpose In reading
a newspaper differed from that which
moved Senator Plumb to read consistent
Iy every newspaper published in Kansas.
Ingalls, was anxious to stimulate his own
mental activities Plumb simply desired
to learn what was the prevailing public
opinion in Kansas. what his constituents
in Kansas were talking about, and what
they were doing. In this way, he was
not only able to get a sound understand
ing OF prevailing public opinion in that
State, but was also the FIRST to detect
shifts or changes Of opinion. Further
more, this swift reading of the Kansas
newspapers made II possible for Senator
Plumb to carry on correspondence with
men In Kansas, some OF whom he never
saw or heard OF until he read something
about them in the Kansas newspapers.
He realized the value Of correspondence
Of this kind in making and maintaining
friends. and II Is probable, too, that in
the entire history Of the Senate there
never was q member OF that body who
was such a constant and such a large
reader Of the Newspaper press as was
Senator Preston B. Plumb, Of Kansas.
