ONE YEAR
FOR STEALING
$1,000 FROM FIRM

Mandan, Nov. &c. l.. Haeuser,
an employer of the Mandan Mercan-
tile company, who was agent at Wer.
ner, vas yesterday sentenced to serve
a year in the %penitentiary for the EN-.
beszlement of about $4,000 from the
company.
III. M. Pfenning, the auditor of the
company, some time ago went to
Werner to take an inventory, and
when he arrived Haeuser was gone.
After going over the books and max
ing investigations, Pfenning sWOre
out a warrant for Haeuser's arrest.
Haeuser was found in Minneapolis
and arrested. He returned in the Gus
tody of Sheriff Kaspar Of Manning,
without extradition papers, and after
his arrest did all in his power to as.
sist the company in its investigation
of the Werner yard.
When brought before Justice of the
Peace Boyd at Manning. he waived ex.
animation, and made a request that
he be- brought before the district
court to enter a plea. He was then
taken to Bowman, at which place
Judge Crawford was holding court.
He entered a plea Of guilty and in
view of his actions, since arrest was
treated with clemency.
Haeuser is we'll educated and came
to Werner with good recommends
3tions. An attempt to get a monopoly
on the pool hall business at Werner
and associations he formed there
proved to be his downfall.

spontaneous combustion. The stack
had been smoldering for several days
but with the help Of neighbors and
with consistent fighting for several
days the fire was thought to have
been extinguished. However, a few
sparks must still have been left, as
when the. strong wind came up the
stack again caught fire and within
a few minutes the stack and barn
were soon destroyed. The damage
done will be a serious loss to Mr..
Bobb, although not a total loss, as
some insurance was carried.

George Mcbride and
Crawford Have Real
Big League Records

Years ago there was a wonderful ball
player who was always injured al the
critical stages OF pennant race and II Is
estimated that injuries, which kept this
player out OF the game for weeks and
even months, had deprived his club OF
three pennants. Fans and scribes ad-
mitted his worth as a player. but came 10
the conclusion that he was not OF such
great value 10 the club because he was
out OF the game 50 much. Figuring on
this basis, which Is undoubtedly correct,
George Mcbride 10 the most valuable man
that can be found anywhere. In eight
years Of major league playing Mcbride
has mised but Fix days play and but
seven games all told. double-header be-
ing played on one occasion. This Il in
deed a remarkable record and Is OF great
Importance when one considers that Nc
Bride has always been considered the
keynote 20 the Washington intield and
its headiost and steadiest performer. In
this respect Sam Crawford h also a re-
markable character. We have not looked

A. A. CLUBS SAVE 100000
Reduction of Player and Salary
Limits and Inoidentals Will Do
the Work.
WAS FORCED ON THE OWNERS

One hundred thousand dollars in round
figures is the amount which will be saved
by American association clubs this sea-
son by the lower player limit and other
economies which the magnates have ef-
fected. This is an average OF 1880 per
club, although the mathematics prao-
tically will not work out 20 an equal divi-
sion.
In arriving at this estimate first con-
slider the number Of players to be carried.
reduced by rule from twenty 10 sixteen.
OF course. there are not four less stars
carried In fact. 1t Is the recruits or
young fellows who have not yet shown
IA class. but might be nursed along for
the future, that get the blue envelope.
Estimate the salary of these men at
$3.50 per month. -Four times that amount
would be 1000 per club or 5000 for the
five months season. The average mile
age is 1000 miles 10 a club, which at 2
cents a mile would make 800 more per
man There VIC uld be at least eighty days
on the road at an average OF 81 per day,
or $40. making a total and mileage $40.
which, multiplied by four, gives 81 76O
saving in travelling expenses. This
totals s670 per club. with incidental ex-
penses Of only s24O TO reach the 1900
mark.
To got at the other $500 per club lie not
30 easy. Savings effected have been IN
places where the club owners are not so
willing TO discuss the dollar mark Sal
aries have been pared all along the line.
OFFICE and park expenses rave been re-
duced wherever possible. Players have
not been bought so layishly and when
bought generally as lower prices The
estimate Of $500 per club Is considered
conservative.
