SUPERIOR NORMAL WINS
E. S. REED.

The Superior Normal school basket
ball team came down from the frozen
North Friday evening and won from
the local pedagogues by score of 2;
to Is. The first half of the game was
regular basketball, both teams playing
clever and fast, and neither having
much advantage over the other. The
score for this round was 9-S in favor
of Superior. Referee Berry opened
the second session by calling four
fouls on the locals in as many min
utes of play, and unfortunately over
looked a number of serious offenses
committed by the visitors. This seem
ed to put an altogether different spirit
into the play of the River Falls team,
and the remainder of the game was
a decidedly ragged exhibition of
rough play on both sides, the crowd
encouraging the change in tactics with
enthusiastic applause whenever q Wis
iting player got the worst of it.
The local school has a fast and
clever team, but the players are a
little too much inclined to lose their
tempers in close contest and resort
to unnecessary roughness. This fact
lost them the game last Friday even
ing. Had they continued throughout
the game with straight basketball it
is the general belief of all present
that they would have won, but instead
of that they INDUCED in an attempt
to satisfy individual animosities wit.
their opponents, and lost all track OF
the game. The crowd also furthered
this sort of play by showing more
enthusiastic interest in the outcome
of these personal affairs than in the
game. 1t is to be sincerely hoped that
future games will find this attitude al
together changed. 1t is one of the main
features of the ideal scholastic athletic
training that is teach true, honest
manhood in every line of endeavor.

Ny army experience was a good

of the most valuable of these les

know ledge that gave me higher es-

OF their merits than I could ever have
secured under any other circumstanc
es. In the army man appeared at

his worst. At home and among friends
where his reputation was to be made

best and SO wore cloak OF decep-

away from the exacting conventional

! ETY., he dropped this cloak of artifice
and was exactly what he seemed to
be- The ever-present consciousness
of a common danger made men feel
the need of reliance upon each other,
drew them together in trustful and
confiding comradeship. Five boys of

gether by accident No one of US
knew any one Of the others before
our muster into the service. We five
were constant associates in all the
eXigencies OF the service and in the
intimacy of the mess we came to
know each other as well as each of
us knew himself. While it is true that

intentions of those four boys that
were SO long and SO closely my con-
slant comrades and cherished friends.
And at this hour as | recall the in
cidents of our intimate association |
can think of no word or act of any
one of them unfriendly to any of the
others. 1t seems to me, knowing the
honesty of their intentions, their con-
duct was always what we could wish
as exhibited by brave and good men.
They were actuated by the desire TO
acquit themselves like men-men in
the highest estimate of the term. And
from the knowledge of the manliness
of these four boys, one of whom died
while holding the flag aloft at Get

appreciation of the intrinsic worth

CITY MAYS IDEA OF FARMS
Intended Witticisms Will Be Amusing to Those Who Live in the Aor-
 cultural Districts.

Farms may be roughly divided into two kinds-the gentleman's or non- paying farm and the common or gar den farm. When you have saved up enough money to keep you in your old age buy farm. Besides getting rid of your money death will come as welcome relief-thus you will ac- complish double purpose. The aban- doned farm Is form of entertainment indulsed in by many to whom faro. horse racing and Wall street are not exciting enough. Besides, just as in human beings, no matter how low an abandoned farm may have sunk there is always some good in 1t.
 To rehabilitate an abandoned farm and put it on it's feet Is a great pleas ure. First, remove all the plumbing. replacing it with gold-plated pipes and belt line of shower baths; after this has been finished will be time enough for you to imagine where the water works are. You will usually find them pleasantly situated at the other side of the county seat By going to the local political gang and carrying one or two elections you will eventually get a stream of water running into your pipes which will excite the envy of every one within reach of your megaphone.-Life.

PLAYED TRICK ON PARTNER
Neat Way in Which key Secured Silver Spoons Which His Com

Two gentlemen of the light-fngered fraternity, who were ill the habit of visiting dinner parties in hopes of picking up something, were one even- ing just in time to see the tables cleared; but key, the smarter of the two, succeeded in purloining five sill yer forks, which he immediately pock- eted, to the envy of Moses, his pal. who asked him to share.
 No, my boy. You should be smart" was the answer.
 During the evening Moses was ask ed to sing, but refused. saying he was no singer; but if they cared for a lit, tie conjuring trick he would entertain them for a few minutes.
 The company was delighted, and Moses asked for five silver forks. which were soon brought. He then placed them in his inside breast pock- ct, and, gently tapping them three times, he exclaimed: Presto! Fly! Change! Gone! Now, if someone will kindly look into my friend keys inside breast pocket he will find them there"
 A gentleman obliged, and Ikey, ex. tremely flustered, produced the forks. to the great delight of the company and Moses.

The public should not lose faith in the splitlog drag because the roads are in such frightful condition after the recent continued rains. D. Ward King himself never claimed that good roads could be built in day with the drag. On the contrary he contends that to secure real serviceable roadbed that is F. r..ctically imperyious to rain and travel requires several years contin- ued use of the drag. The pudded earth that is leveled down by the drag and then packed deeper into the roadbed by traffic remains there to form a foundation for road that in time will cease to become muddy. The longer the use of the drag is kept up, the thicker the solid roadbed become, until finally it will hold up the heav- fest wagon. Don't become discourag- ed with the drag after one years use. Its benefits are apparent to every one, and they will become greater and more apparent the longer they drag the roads.-Russellville Courier Dem Ocrat.

Law Aimed at Injustice.

Bank clerks and matrimony have been the subject of legislation by the Australian parliament. The assembly has approved of a new clause in the criminal code bill, by which any per son or corporation, prohibiting under threat of dismissal the marrying of any employe over twenty-one years of age, will be liable to a fine of $500. or three months Imprisonment. The clause is the outcome of evidence in the arbitration court that the West crn Australian banks prohibit the mar riage of clerks receiving under $1,OOO per annum.
