ALL STARS LOSE TO BRAINERD
LOCALS DEFEATED BY TO
SCORE, DUE TO BAD
ERRORS

Numerous bad errors On the mart of
the All Stars cost their defeat by the
Brainerd nine Sunday, at that place,
by score of to l. The local battery
worked we'll but the support was weak.
Lagerbauer pitched a good game
striking out nine men. He allowed
eleven hits and passed two men. The
fielding Of the locals was poor and
most of the scores made by Brainerd
were on errors. Two good double plays
were pulled off in the sixth inning,
Meyers to Kelly to Lauermann.
The All Stars secured their only tally
in the seventh inning when Longley got
the first single, stole second advanced
to third on a wild throw by Victor and
scored On Lauermann s infield out. The

AUTO DAMAGED IN COLLISION
WITH HORSE

A horse on Saturday night crippled
an automobile so badly that it was
necessary to take the machine to a
local garage for repairs. The horse
seemed little disturbed by the accident
and shortly afterward walked off as
though nothing had happened.
DR.. Berg Of Brainerd was the I'M
fortunate owner of the automobile
which was damaged. He was returning
home and when short distance north
Of this city he came upon a horse ~
ing in the middle Of the road. He did
not see the horse until nearly upon him
and just then the animal rose from the
ground. The result was broken wind'
shield, broken lamps, a crippled radia-
tor and hood on the automobile.

WAR TAX ONl OVERDRAFTS
20 INTERNAL REVENUE STAMP
REQUIRED FOB EACH $100-MIN-
NESOTA BANKERS INTERESTED

Minnesota bankers are much inter
ested in a circular by Albert H. Tur
rittin, state superintendent Of banks
Informing them that all checks Great
ing or Increasing an overdraft must
bear a 2-cent internal revenue stamp
for each 800 or fraction. The order
will enable bankers to restrict what
they deem a vicious practice-that of
overdrawing accounts. Failure to at
tach the stamp places the offender liza
bic to fine of 5000.
Mr.. Turrittn' s circular is based on
a ruling by the federal commissioner
of internal revenue, who holds that a
check creating an overdraft is merely
an acknowledg ment Of debt, which is
taxable under the war revenue act.

or1fortable hammock, while his lit
tie nephews and nieces disported on
the lawn. Supreme contentment was
his lot. Then, suddenly, shrilly, there
rang out the appalling scream Of
"Firew
The shout aroused him. He ran
outside to see the hotel with which
the theater connected going up in
smoke. Some one spoke of victims
imprisoned on the upper floor. The
brave old man breasted the dense
smoke to reach the second floor.
There he was drivent back by belch-
ing flame.
He staggered, choked, blinded to
stumble over senseless form lying
across the landing. 1t was that of a
woman. He had just sufficient
strength to lift her and bear her to
the street.
'The singer - Miss Winthrop"
breathed bystander and she aroused
to vince with pain. Her ankle had
been broken in a fall down the third
story stairs. She could not walk. The
hotel was doomed.
Get a conveyance of some kind"
ordered Abel still supported her. "She
must have shelter and she is welcome
in my poor home, if it's good enough
for her" ,
So Highlands had a guest. Mrs.
Day tended the stricken singer as
would a mother Alton, home twice
a week, saw her and loved, but 81
lently. The delight of old Mr.. Day
was to sit evenings and hear the pa
tient-singer. She had to cancel her
engagement for the season and re-
NAMED at Highlands for six weeks.
Her bright, sympathetic nature
won the old man completely. One
evening when the two were alone he
told her of his vision. After that,
more than once she made him tell it
again.
Tho dav she left Mrs. Dav cried

And then, between kisses, she
whispered in his ear:
'The vision splendid wait, hope!
It shall come truep' and was gone,
and with her sunshine seemed to de-
part from the lonely house.
One year went-two years. Alton
had secured work with construction
firm, but liberal compensation and a
permanent establishment were long
way ahead. He had never forgotten
the beautiful songstress. Mrs. Day
mourned for her. The old man re-
called her bonny face with love and
longing.
One stormy day a great cyclone
swept through the district. The Day
family CHANGED to be in town. When
they returned home they found the
old house a heap of ruins.
Then the old man and his wife
sought temporary home with the
widowed sister of Mrs. Day. They
were made dearly welcome, though
the flour barrel was not always full.
1t was four months later when an
automobile halted outside the lOWly
home where the old couple fretted
and pined to get once more upon an
independent domestic footing. A
flashing form leaped from the ma
chine.
Father Day!' she cried, "dear,
dear mother of mine, the only one
l can remember, am back to you!
You are to come come-come! Oh,
the joy of this moment"
Annie Winthrop was so excited she
was incoherent. She had won wealth
and fame. She had arranged for a
new home for her dear old friends,
she said, back in their native village.
They must come and see it.
As they neared the old familiar
scenes the eyes of Mr.. Day became
misty. Then, as they turned past a
dense grove there was Highlands.
