Vienna, Jan. 8.-Austria is making
supreme effort to raise a new army
to defend Vienna and .Burapest from
an attack by Servia, A failure means
that Austria must either sue for sep

ordered has called to colors thousands
who were previously rejected, and
only those who are actually unable
to shoot rifle: are exempted. Even
men. partially disabled. are being
drafted for home guard. Few have
.bayonets OF entrenching tools and
the equipment and uniforms worn are
from discarded battlehelds. Long
lines of earthworks are being con-
structed to defend :, the two cities.
Several demonstrations at Budapest
were quel1ed only after the troops had
been called out. .:. -: ..

CHASKA QUIN1 WINNER:
Professional Champions Have Little
Trouble in Downing big Bemidg"
By Score of IS to IL.
PLAY AGAIN THIS EVENING

Displaying the same speed, clever
ness and knowledge Of the game
which has won for them the distinc-
ton as one of the nations greatest
basketball teams, the Chaska quint
invaded Bemidji last night and won
from the local athletes by a score of
IS to IL.
During the first half of the contest
Bemidji played Chaska on even terms
and the visitors led by only three
points when the twenty minutes of
play ended, the score being to 9. In
the second period Bemidji's covering
was the poorest of the year and re-
peatedly were Schalow and Won, two
of the Chaska stars, able to throw for
baskets, each connecting four times
during the half.
Thorsen and Meyers, Chaska' s
guards, played the strongest basket
ball witnessed on .Bemidji floor in
some time. Their covering was al
most perfect and their handling Of
the ball could not have been i'm
proved upon. flemish, the, Chaska
forward and captain, won. disfavor
from the large crowd .atrthe very be-
ginning of the game his playing be-
ing so rough that on several occa-
sions he could have been ruled from
the game had the officials so desired
=, Peck, Trafton and Jacobson played
hard, but were unable to break up the
work of the professionals, and Bran
don and Howe, Bemidji's crack for
wards, were powerless, their small
stature proving too great handicap.
Bestul played below his normal
standard.
The boys were completely outplay-
ed and offer no excuse for their de-
feat, nor should they, for it is no dis
credit to be downed by team of the
Chaska calibre. Games with the
same team are to be played tonight
and tomorrow night and Bemidji ex-
poets to make much better showing.

man life; more especially is this true
when the weapon is in the hands of
an untried lefty chap who is in
clined to pull the trigger at the least
movement of a twig on a tree. One
would almost be inclined to insist
on an examination of most hunters,
before they take to the tall TIMBER "
as to their mental fitness to hunt big
game and not slaughter their fellow

There are an average of $4,000 Ii

many more who do not procure Ii

in the state of Minnesota, and of this
large number Of nimrods, how many
are fitted to hunt proiciently and

BILE, but a fact, that many hunting
parties employ guides, and when lack
of native ability as a hunter is really
responsible, and not '1uck" for non
success in landing big game, these
guides are required to furnish car
casses of deer and moose, for a con-
sideration, and the enthusiastic hunt
er, when he returns home, proudly
displays the. fruits of the chase"
and it is very often the case that the
boastful hunter never saw the deer
