"A Fool There Was"

The feature attraction at Dreamland
for Thursday evening of this week
vii. be "a Fool There Was" adapted
from Rudyard Kipling's poem, "The
Vampire" The Vampire leads the
Fool" from his home, and then leads
him on to ruin and disgrace. His wife
and friends try to tear him from her
side, but to no avail, she always sue
ceeds in holding her infatuated vic
tim. His will weakened by drink and
drugs, he is still infatuated, and she
gloats over the wreck of what once
was man. At last her work is com
plete, and the "Foop' drops dead at
her feet. The caste is headed by Miss
Theda Bara, in the part of "The YAM
pire" and Edward Jose, as the "Fool.'
The supporting cast is a strong one.

The Cosmos Club and High School
base ball teams played an interesting
game last Thursday evening, which
resulted in victory for the former
by score of to S. The result was
in doubt until the last man was retired
in the ninth inning.
Each team was BANKED for two in
nings, but in the third, the Cosmos
broke the ice by scoring three runs
Art Johnson was hit by pitched ball
but was retired at the plate when he
tried to score on Smiths double to
left. Nordstrom got on, as did Buck,
and they all scored on Mornings long
smash to left for two bases. The high
school scored two in the fourth. Eckie
got on and scored on Bob Johnson's
triple to right field. Bob scored a
moment later. This was all the scor-
ing until the eighth inning, when the
high school took the lead. Hits by
Yarrow, Kuntz and Erickson, and an
error in the outfield, let the first two
over the plate.
The Cosmos came back strong tho,
and won the game in the last half of
this inning. Nordstrom walked and
scored on Hengstler's triple to right.
Erickson then retired and Kuntz took
up the pitching burden. Hengstler
scored a moment later on Bucks hit.
A nice drive by Norling allowed Buck
to score what proved to be the win.
ming run.
The high school made great bid
for victory in the ninth. Conway and
Severinson were retired on good plays
by Carlson and Norling, when Lars
hit safely. Holt followed with a high
fly back of first which Buck couldn't
get. Then came the prize bonehead
of the game. Flop tombstone rolled an
easy grounder to Hengstler, and in
stead of tossing to Buck for the fina
out, he tried to beat Flop to the sack
Using his head to good advantage
Flop slid, and gained the decision

Glenwood boasts of a one armed
pitcher, in Brazil, and he is a left
handler at that, so he may make trou-
BILE for the Willmar team.
Those interested in a tennis club
for this city have been busy the last
week or so securing members for the
club and grounds for the courts.
Sunday, June 18th the Glenwood
team plays in this city. This will be
the first appearance of Glenwood
team in Willmar for long time and
a large crowd will undoubtedly be out
to see the game.
The Willmar base ball team will
travel to Glenwood next Sunday for a
game with the team of that place.
Glenwood has a fast team and the
game will be good one. The trip
will be made in autos and number
Of fans are planning to accompany
the team.
Dassel has finally come to the con-
clusion that they will have a base
ball team this season. The team will
be composed Of all home players, and
it is probable that Lem Norden will
pitch for them. This will mean two
more interesting games for the Will
mar team.
There was some talk a short time
ago of gun club being organized for
Willmar. Nothing has been heard
lately about this organization, but it
would be a good thing, and as several
places near here have clubs, some
good "shoots" could be pulled off.
The Cosmos and Excelsior Grays
base ball teams will play at the ball
park tomorrow Thursday evening
at $3.50 o'clock. The game last week
proved of great interest to the fans
and it is probable that these local
teams will meet each week during the
season. No admission will be charg-
ed.

A CORRECTION The item which was
printed in the Ellendale letter of last
week stating that horse owned by Mr.
Deshendorf, a new settler here, ran away
and fell into ditch, ETC., has proven to
be a mistake on the part of the reporter.
Mr. Deshendorf stated to the local editor
of this paper, that the factsare as follows ;
The horse was standing in front Of
Prettyman's S store, and the wheel caught
behind the hitching post, and in starting
up the cross-bar was broken, the horse
broke loose, and ran down the street one
block, where it was caught by two men,
and that was the whole story. The
statement that it fell into a ditch is
without foundation for
truth. The above-statement, as made to
us personally by Mr.. Deshendorf, who
feels that injustice was done to his horse
as well as himself in the first statement.

GLENDALE

During these fine days, when every
one who works at all is very busy at hi:
dlierent duties, items of news are scarce,
and those who gather around the store
corners in the evenings, where gossip
ana talk runs high, are discussing the
dry weather, the postoffice robbery, and
the distressing loss of the British liner
Lusitania, when SO many American lost
their life, with mention of the moving
pictures.
The blowing open of the postoflice safe
last Thursday morning was one Of the
4 most sensational events ever happened in
kllendale. The fragments left by the
! explosion still lie on the floor, awaiting
the postoffice authorities to take the mat
ter up, for as yet they have not visited
the scene, although they were notified at
once. The amount taken is about $3.50
IN all. Nearly $4,000 of this was cash,
while the remainder was in stamps,
money orders, pension checks, etc. The
most cheerful man is Fred Donovan,
whose team was stolen at the time, but
was only taken as far as Harrington,
where 1t was left. Two days prior to the
robbery two strange men of suspicious
appearance were seen lettering around
town, who had nothing to sav to anyone.
The moving picture show, which has
been giving nightly performances in
Jester Hall, broke up Saturday night by
drunken, rowdy fight. One wonders
where the tom authorities are, and why
no arrests were made, when such disor-
der disturbs the peace of our town.
Probably we were better off when there
was no ordinances, except the fat officers
and high taxes.
The people here, are divided as to their
opinions on the sinking of the liner
Lusitania. Many think that Germany
had a right to commit this deed, while
as many more deplore the terrible loss of
American life in this crime of unpardon-
able cruelty.
On Saturday large number of rela- |
tives met the noon train and from there |
accompanied the body of Florence Der |
only daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. |
Lewis Derrickson, aged nineteen years,
to old McColley's Chapel where funeral |
services were held. Mrs. Derrickson was /

man, large family connection near here, !

ANOTHER FIGHT IN
x EXPECTED

WASHINGTON, Nov. 15,-Sir Cecil
Spring-Rice, the British ambassador,
accompanied by Mr., Hohler, charge Of
the British legation at Mexico city,
called at the state department today
and discussed Mexican questions with
Secretary Lansing. They were par
ticularly interested in prospects for
settlement of claims growing out Of
the American occupation of Vera Cruz.
1t is understood the date Of recog-
milton of the de facto government in
Mexico by Great Britain and her allies
will depend upon the nature Of the
report to be made to Secretary Lansing
this week by Eliseo Arredondo, just
back from a conference with General
C|arran2a.
A flying column of villa forces has
penetrated the state of Jalisco, accord
ing to today's state department adj
vices, and there may be fighting soon
also in the vicinity of the cities Of
Guadalajara and COlima.
