Baseball Bugs
Are All Aglow
CONFUSION NO LONGER REIGNS
AMONG DIAMOND FASTENERS
At MeGILL, AS OPENING GAME
OCCURS NEXT SUNDAY

Baseball Is no longer hazy prop
osition 1t has ceased to be fantas-
tic ruin 1t is no longer bibulous
According to The dope sheet. tho
rabid enthusiasts at McGill can really
see a light on which to base a hope
And that just about covers the case
as well as words can cover a case
Even the dyed in the wool pastimer
around the smokestacks can see his
way out, as witness the announce
ment that the Mill and Shop teams
will clash in the opening game at
MeGill next Sunday afternoon. Those
who will grace the grandstand and
beaehers are assured of a quiet and
peaceful afternoon with battle to
the last wallop.
Charles Mitchell, well known
carpenter. will direct the diamond
performers at the mill. Frank Jane
son, foreman at the boiler shop, has
been selected by the enthusiasts in
the smelter end to guide the hope
fuls from that end of the big plant.
Both leaders are known among the
diamond performers as the qnietest
starters and the noisiest finishers.
whenever an engagement is in prog
ress.
The bunch from the mill will prob
ably line up as follows: Hawse,
second base; II. Scott, center field,
Cottrell left field, W Scott. right
field; Williams. catcher. Duyal. w.
Rose and Lundahl, substitutes
The lot seems like a paradise to
that of Ely. A number of new faces
will be observed in the lineup of the
mill men. aud these latest additions
can hit fiuently and with-malice afore-
thought Hawse was star perform
er in seasons past, but did not don a
mill uniform last year due TO his
absence in the Bingham canyon coun-
try. where he held a position with
the Ohio Copper company.
Dillon and Brown wore Ely uni
forms in 1914. They served their
time with the delegation from the
county seat and feel that they have
expiated their sins. There Is no law
on the statute books preventing a
man from playing with Ely.
The nine that represented the
county's geographical center in days
goneby merely made stabs at the ma
tional amusement. The majority of
them were not hallplayers. They We're
merely objects of pity. No good
team has been developed in Ely for
the last seven years. consequently
there must be something that pre-
vents Ely from having a live-wire ag-
gfegation that can cope on equal
terms with their adversaries. They
never won anything and there is
nothing To Indicate that they will.
So there you are.

TWO YOUTHS ARE FINED
FOR STEALING CHICKENS

Neil Gardner. formerly a student
at the county high school, and Eu-
gene Peacocke. both of Lund. plead
ID guilty in the justice court yester-
=. to the charge of stealing chickens
y E. A. Hendrix, Jr.. we'll known
+ in the White River valley.
Gardner was fined $40 by Judge
Edwards while his companion was
released from custody upon contrib
uting $40 to the county treasury,
The court felt that Gardner had not
given a correct narrative of the cir
cumstanse leading up to the theft of
the chickens, hence the imposition
of heavier fine
The lads. one of whom is Is and the
other II. had planned a chicken din
ner for some of the young ladies at
Lund. according to information forth
coming in the justice court. Rather
than pay for the fowl, the youths de-
cided to appropriate the article most
essential to the big spread from some
of their neighbors. They were tried
in the justice court at Lund and es-
capped with a mere reprimand Hen
dirk had chickens purloined from his
coop on several prior occasions and
was dissatisfied with justice as it is
dispensed at Lund. He asked for a
change of venue and the case was
transferred TO Ely.

ExenptionLaw
for Widows
GRAND JURY'S REPORT MAKES
NUMEROUS SUGGESTIONS ON
SUBJECTS OF CIVIC AND NOR
Al WELFARE.

The grand jury submitted its re-
port to Judge McFadden Thursday :.
Widows who conduct lodging
houses within the city limits should
be exempt from the payment of a
city license, according to report
submitted by the committee on city
affairs. The members request that
n new license ordinance be adopted.
Without casting any reflections on
the qualifications of the high school
principal. as an educator. the grand
jury advises that the superintendent
be not employed for the ensuing
term until the state of warfare that
prevails among the principal. the dep
uty superintendent, the probation Of
ficer and the three members of the
county board of education ceases.
1t Is the conoensus of opinion
among the grand jurors that the
Park hotel at the corner of Ninth
and Aultman streets be condemned
for high school purposes. 1t adjoins
the four lots owned by the high
school on the east.
The elimination of the redlight dis
trict at Ruth and the concentration of
the different houses of prostitution in
one place in each community under
the surveillance of the various peace
officers are among the salient features
of the grand jury report.
The grand jurors declared that the
restricted section IN Ely is conducted
too openly, and recommended that
the fence heretofore existing be re-
placed and extended so as to shut
out from public view. The inyesti-
gators desire the enclosure TO be ten
feet high. and request that 1t be
built along the east. south and west
dance halls will be considered in a
later report.
The committee on sanitation as
serted that the practice of dumping
garbage above the springs in Murry
creek canyon was a menace to the
health of the community, and recon-
mends that the practice be discontin-
ued. The members desire the health
officers TO enforce the laws respecting
the removal of garbage cans during
the summer months.
The sanitary condition of the city
jail was found 10 be poor. 1t is urged
that the task of beautifYing the
courthouse grounds be continued.
The bringing OF suit against the
+ Nells-Fargo company and the Con
snmers Mating and Brewing COM
Irany for the collection of delinquent
taxes is also recommended.
