An Awakenlnn Industrv.

In the window Of a small general
shop not far from New Cross station
may be observed card bearing this in
scription: "Workmen called early In

a notice is rarely to be seen in London
nowadays, though the custom is an old
one and was much In vogue previous
to the invention Of the cheap alarm
clock. The individual engaged in the,
calling is known as ''knocker up"
and a favorite method Of awaking the
would be early riser is by rapping on
the bedroom window pane with a stick
or by throwing up small stones. In the

Last Tuesday the Donnelly and
Alberta base ball teams played their
second game this season on the AL
berta diamond, score to 0 in favor
of the Alberta team. Barney Helsper,
of Chokio, umpired the game. Being
from an adjoining town he had no in
terest in the teams and his decisions
were fair and correct. Donnelly took
exception to some of his rulings but
reference to the book of rules con-
WINGED them that he was right. The
pitcher or curved ball twirler for AL
berta put out twenty at bat while only
five were retired on strikes by the man
in the box from Donnelly. Fifteen
dollars nor no other price could induce
Mr.. Helsper to favor either team.
The Alberta team won on the merits
of hard skillful work and the laurels
are all theirs. "Lefty's" curves did
the biz and he was right on the job
with the goods from start to finish in
the game and the Dunnelly team
pounded an immense quantity of air
trying to find his curves only to meet
with defeat for their efforts.

 MADE AT PORT ARTHUR

London. Sept. 22-GeneraI Nogi s prediction, made at the siege ot Port Arthur. is still fresh in the minds of Euglishmen in connection with the terrible fighting near the old Waterloo field. General Nogi said:
 II believe that the world will wit ness a great war which will have all EuroDe for it's battle-ground, and will settle the FraDco-Prus- san question and the AngIo-German rivalry France and Germany will meet in this last decisive conflict on lhe Belgian plains probably near Waterloo, the only spot which will permit of the evolution of the great armies which will face each other At the present time the French and German frontiers are to strongly fortified for either people 10 force it's way through. I have lit He doubt as to the result of thlS war. France will beat Germany on land and England will cEus" Germany at sea.
 This will be the last great war in Europe for many years, perhaps forever. The German states will emerge from this war so exhausted and so terrified that they will have no other object than to form some sort of condition that they may in future obviate the recurrence of any such catastrophe"
