One Hundred Twenty-Five Gallons
Destroyed at Mason City.

Mason City, Dec. 13.-One hundred
twenty five gallons of liquor flowed
down the main sewer of the city today
into Lime creek. This has been col
lected during the past few weeks from
those disposed to handle it Illegally
It came mostly from those who tried to
get over the Iowa state line from
Minnesota without following the pre-
scribed methods. While the destroyed
liquors consisted mostly of whisky
there was some gin, brandy and wine,
and some beer. The sheriff has in his
possession even a larger seizure and In
due course of time this will all go into
the sewer for fish feeding purposes.

COLLECTIVE BUYING BENEFIT
TO UNCLE SAM

Washington, Nov. 1. - Collective
buying works out wonderful econo-
mics. For instance, the navy depart
ment last year saved six-tenths of a
cent over the previous year on the
daily cost of subsistence of every
man in the navy. One reason for this
saving, as given by navy department
officials, is ga requirement that no
reuuisition shall call for any proprie-
tary article Clike breakfast feods),
any food substitute or any other item
on which competition in bidding can
not be had. The cost Of feeding the
men in the navy was SO cents day
per man and the food was of such
excellent quality that no complaints
have been heard from the enlisted
men.
: One thing Sec'y Daniels has done
to reduce the cost of clothing his
men is the establishment of a govern
ment factory at Charleston, S. c.,
last spring for the manufacture of
dungaree garments, white trousers
and knee drawers. Uncle Sam finds
that he can make these cheaper than
even sweatshop methods employed in
New York city by cutting out the pri-
vate profit and manufacturing them
at cost --'7'..'

FENCING THE ROAD

Reports from the Taber country
indicate that farmers have COM
menced fencing UP the old stage road
where it is expected that the new
state highway will be located on the
section lines. Such action is pre-
mature, as the new road must be
opened before the old one is closed.
Also, 1t is necessary to put up planks,
poles or other distractions to prevent
travellers from running into the wires
in the dark. 1t is very dangerous
in present condition, and drivers of
autos are in danger of being ripped
to pieces before they are aware of
the presence of wires.

cause he refused to be idle.
II found that 7 liked billiards when I
was a young man and devoted my spare
time to that game 7 did not do II
merely as recreation, but with the idea
that I would learn the game and the
business and devote my time to 1t in

right sort Of friends. coneenial fellows
who liked the game Of billiards. and we

BY LOUIS A. DOUGHER.

CHICAGO. May 1.-THE GriffmeH
have now been cut down to twenty-onc
actual players, with the passing to MIN
nea polls Of Harry Harper and Henri
Rondeau. and the end is not yet in sight.
II Is expected that one or two of tho
large pitching corps will follow to tn"
Millers, who are badly in need OF twill
ing talent Mike Cantillon. onu OF the
owners of the Minneapolis club. showed
up here yesterday and at once went
into executive session with Clark Grif-
fifth. He obtained Rondeau and Harper
without much trouble and an attempt
was made to have Jack Bentley go 10
the Millers for a years experience.
Jack Bentley informed Griffith that
owing to his mothers health he 'Clt hc
ought to remain nearer his home In
Sandy Springs. His sister is soon to he
married and Mrs. Bentley needs Jack
around to care for the farm duties while
the Nationals are playing at home He
told the Old Fox that. rather than go
to Minneapolis. he would quit baseball
and forget that he ever had trial with
big league team. Manager Griffith
then decided to keep Bentley foc a
while longer.
Harry Harper left last night for Min
neapolis. while Rondeau will return to
Woonsocket to got his Wife and child
Both players are satisfied at the shift
in the base. Rondeau thinks he might
have shown to better advantage with Il
longer trial. but he makes no complaint
Harper says he will return a world
beater.
Sending Harper to Minneapolis before
receiving waivers from all the clubs
may bring some difficulties for Manager
Griffith. At least three clubs have
steadily declined to waive on the young
Hackensack southpaw. and the Old Fox
Is taking chance on obtaining the
waivers now.
The Nationals undoubtedly have too
many pitchers for their own good.
Johnson. Boehling, Gallia, Shaw, and
Bentley have been the only lads start
