New York where an epidemic is reap
ing hundreds of young lives.

troubles or diarrhoea.
The child becomes feverish, irritable
and restless. Paralysis of the legs
or arms follows.
Many cases do not run this typical
course. ~ large proportion of cases
do not show paralysis at all. These
are particularly dangerous to the com,

THE BALL TOURNAMENT.

The Pollock ball tournament came
to close last night when Linton
cleaned the Pollock Tigers in the final
game by a score of 8 to 4 and carried
away first money. The Tigers cap
turcd second prize, Strasburg third
and Hcrrcid takes away the crumbs.
The weather was fine for the sport,
the thermometer registering around
90 each day, and there was very little
wind for the players to contend with
or to bother the spectators. The
games were well patronized each day

HERREID WINS TOURNAMENT.
Postponed Games Played Sunday and
Record Breaking Crowd At
tended.

Linton's base ball tournament was
completed last Sunday when the three
delayed games were pulled off in a
row, the first beginning at / p. m. and
the last being finished about eight
o'clock at night.
Herreid won every game she played
and took away first money without a
whimper. Linton, Strasburg and Ha-
zelton tied up for the other three
prizes, each team winning one and
losing two during the series.
Strasburg defeated Hazclton, Lin
ton defeated Strasburg, and Hazelton
defeated Linton, making it round
robin sort Of affair so far as the prize
money is concerned.
The first game Sunday was that
played between Hazelton and Her
reid. 1t was an easy victory for the
South Dakotans. They had the ne
gro pitcher from Eureka in the box.
ard he was invinciblc On the other
hand, Felix Fly, pitching for Hazel
ton, was touched up repeatedly and
the Hazelton team centcred their best
efforts on "ragging" each other while
they booted the ball around Herreid
got couple of scores in the first
frame and were never in danger after
that. Claxton, the negro twirlcr,
proved to be heavy hitter as well as
pitcher, and helped materially to win
his own game with the stick.
Linton and Hazelton pulled down
the second exhibition, and it was an
exhibition, too. Hazelton got away
with couple of hits and an error in
the first inning which gave them the
edge. And when Hazclton is ahead
they can play classy ball. When
they are losing it takes too much of
their energy for each individual
player to show the other fellow whose
fault it is Linton didn't have look
in all through the game. Taylor, for
Hazelton, pitched good ball and Flan-
agan in left field turned hits into put
outs with painful regularity. In fact
if it hadn't been for Kohl Linton would
have gone scoreless. Along near the
wind-up Kohl was on third with two
down. He deliberately stole home on
Taylor without any assistance what.

test Linton threatened. In the third
