this year, by the Midland Cir

the local end of programs very
competently during the past few
years.
F. F. Miles, the platform man.
ager for the Midland Company,
was at Redwood Falls through
out the week and proved very
popular with the audiences. Mr..
Miles has pleasing platform
presence, is efficient and tactful
in his work as manager and the
Midland Bureau is to be COM
plimented upon having his SER
vices. Much of the success of
the season just past was due to
his capability in handling the
audiences.
The biggest and most enjoy

.SeafOrth Beaten
By Redwood Nine
In Last Sundays Game Redwood
Giants Were Again Victor
i0us; Score 5 too

The Redwood Falls ball team
went to Seaforth last Sunday and
handed the nine of that place a
handsome basket Of goose eggs,
the score being 5 to 0. Seaforth
put up a game fight and tried
hard to dust the home plate,
but in vain. In the eighth in
ming they had two men holding
the bags on first and second,
and the fans cheered their best
for a score, but nothing doing.
'Irish" on the Mound
Irish" was in the spotlight
for Redwood Falls with Linde
behind the bat. This was Irish's
day and he made the most Of it..
He went in with a grin on his
face as though he was master
of all he surveyed, and nothing
could disturb him. He pitched
ball like a veteran. He had
speed, dope and control. At bat
he almost put the ball in the
next county. 1t was a great day
for "Irish," and his pennant
still waves over the Seaforth
diamond.
Team Worked Good
The entire team was in it's
usual good form and made some
very clever plays. Think" at
third, nailed fly way outside
the left field foul line that made
the Seaforth fans wonder with
awe. Redwood Falls can feel
proud Of it's diamond stars. They
have only lost one game this
season. Not once has there been
any rag-chewing. The boys have
always played like true knights,
and may the best team win.
The game played on July fifth
between Redwood and Belview
was won by the former, the score
being 6 to 2. It was bagged
strictly on it's merits. Relview
was handicapped greatly by it's
star pitcher being overworked,
and the game would have been
closer had lie ueen on the mound.

Dynamite Kills
IvanhQe Resident
Others Are Injured in Accident
Resulting from Desire for
Noise; Five Arrested
--~@.
i. &-l T. 5: M

A report was circulated here
the first of the week that gang
of boys at Ivanhoe had placed
dynamite about a house, not be-
ing satisfied with the noise of
fire crackers, and as a result of
the explosion two people were
killed and several injured.
Upon investigation it is
learned that a blacksmith at
1vanhoe was entertaining par
ty Of friends and relatives at
their home, and that during the
evening a number of giant fire
crackers had been fired about
the house by boys. Not salts
fed with this, they purchased
from a store in Ivanhoe five
pounds of dynamite and with
fish line and fuses, suspended it
from trees in front of the home,
three pounds, in one place, and
two pounds in another. A woman
who was a guest at the home
happened to go on the porch and
heard the intruders running
away. She noticed queer spark
ling in the trees and called to
it the attention Of others in the
house, who came out and while
they were looking up at it, the
three pounds of dynamite ex-
ploded. John Osezark, who was
nearest the explosion, had his
side torn open and was killed,
while his brother-in-law was
blinded, otherwise injured, and
is not expected to live. Two wom-
en- in the party who were fur
ther away, had their clothes vir-
tually torn from them by the
force Of the explosion.
It developed that the supposed
boys were half grown and mid
dleaged men and five were placed
under arrest. Two Of them were
allowed to 60 when it was learned
that they were led by others and
only followed the gang. The
hearing Of the three men is to
take place today. :
A fortunate part of the acct
dent was that the second charge
Of dynamite did not go off, it
being supposed that the concus-
sion of air from the first one
blew the fuse of the second,
which had burned to within six
inches Of the charge.
This is only another instance,
which Governor Malcome Pat
terson might use to prove his
arguments made at our Chau-
tauqua Monday that too many
people do as they please regard
less of law or the rights of 9TH
ers.-Marshan Messenger.

Race Meet Most
Successful Event
Committee to Be Congratulated
upon Financial Success And
Good Time Given Crowds

Wednesday evening of last
week saw the close Of Redwood
Falls midsummer race meet
one Of the most successful events
OF its nature ever pulled off any
where in this section of the
state. Both days brought big
crowds, there being four thou
sand people present the first day,
and a crowd not so large July
5. The total receipts were ST.
$50, leaving a net gain of about
$3.50. The net proceeds were
originally intended to be divided
equally between the CONNER
cial Club and the Redwood Coun-
ty Agricultural Association, but
members of the Club are now
inclined to think it just that
the entire sum be given to the
Agricultural Association, to be
used for it's benefit as it's board
of directors may think best. The
matter is not decided yet.
The credit for the success is
to be given the committee of
the Driving Club, consisting of
Pres. A. D. McRae, Sec. C. A..
Schildknecht, R. A. Cooper, A.
L. Sarchet and A. S. Kenney.
These men worked increasingly
for several weeks before the
races and the community should
be most appreciative Of their eff
forts and the results. Judge A.
c. Dolliff, while not a member
Of the committee, was most gen.
erous in giving Of his time and
broad experience with races and
was of great assistance to the
officers.
In the Special County Race
which was feature Of the July
5 program, Billy I, owned by
Mr.. Teitrick Of Wabasso was
the winner in all three heats,
time 1852. The purse for this
race was $50 and the local in
terest in it was keen. The own
ers of the other horses entered
in this were Messrs. Bliss, Ward,
Stockdell and Ma!strom. Laura
Allen won in the 2::20 trot and
Rand S in the 2:25 pace Of We'd
nesday.
Among the horsemen who
brought their strings here there
were no better sports than DR..
J. P. West of Madison, Wis.
Bert MORRISON of Glencoe and
Fred Martin Of Truman, DR..
West brought f7e. horses here,
was always ready to do anything
in his power to help out the
management in the Way Of fill
ing in or in any other matter,
and left, saying loud praises of
the treatment he had received,
the splendid race track and the
town itself. Redwood Falls has
seldom so thoroughly enjoyed a
visit as that of DR.. West and
sincerely hopes he will return
for the fall races.
Not least Of all the factors in
the meets success was the Bel
view Band which came down
here to play and did it freely,
generously and we'll. The Band
showed what the musicians of
small town can do when they
hang together, and everyone who
heard them was greatly pleased

the city. Millions are in want. The
high cost Of living squeezes the poor
people first, and hardest, and longest! !!
Disease and death walk close at hand.
In the early centuries the church was
the sole agent of relief. Our complex
modern society has given us great, i'm
personal relief societies. While church
members are large supporters, the
church is lost sight of by the multi
tude. Christian people must not for
get the duty Of discriminate christian
charity, even unto the least in the
name of Christ and to honor him.
They must seek to remove the causes
of poverty. wherever they are found
and to alleviate the sufferings of pow
erty, wherever discovered Worldly
agencies must not subordinate the in
terest and service of the church for
the needy. Christian people would
therefore do well to make their largest
gifts thru their churches, in order that
the cause of Christ may be honored
and his spirit uplifted in the world.
Gifts thru other agencies may even
belittle the church, which is thus
thoughtlesSly ignored.

hour; quail, ten minutes; woodcock,
twenty minutes; partridge, from
twenty to twenty-five minutes.
A hare Will take an hour; the hind
part requires most heat and that
should be attended to, as it common
ly happens that the thick part of the
thigh is underdOne as well as the
shoulders. The blood stagnated
around the neck and shoulders is not
easily removed; to do this put these
parts into a pan of lukewarm water
and prick them with skewer; be-
fore dressing rub and squeeze it out.
To take off the fishy taste which
wild fowl sometimes have, put an
onion. salt and hot water into the
dripping pan and baste them for the
first ten minutes with this; then take
away the pan and baste constantly
with butter.

l. The Reward of Fidelity.


OF the seven churches of Asia, I
have visited the site Of two: Ephesus
and Smyrna. Ephesus is nothing but
ruins, tho these are impressive.
Smyrna is a prosperous city, with q
fine harbor. 1t is said that "the navies
of the world can ride at the water
front of Smyrna" The city Is next
to Constantinople in size and impor-
tance in the Turkish empire. With
It's quarter of a million people. 1t Is
called "the Chicago of Turkey" DIR.
f. Il. Clark has called attention to the
fact that Smyrna, the only city of the
seven, except Philadelphia, whose
church receives from the Master un-
qualified praise, is the only city of the
seven which is today great and pros
porous.
What interested me most in the
city, (aside from the visit with a
college mate who is teaching in the
fine mission school there), was the
reputed tomb Of Polycarp, marked by
two tall, straight, dark cypress trees.
Polycarp was the Bishop of Smyrna,
ninety-six years of age, whom the
mob asked to renounce Christ. And
he replied:
Eighty and six years nave served
Him, and he has done me no Ill; how
then can l blaspheme my King who
hath saved me-"
SO they burned him in the stadium,

o'clock on a Saturday afternoon, in

was said to have been II pupil of the
beloved apostle John. He was faith.

500 DROWN IN JACKSON

This head is not designed to har-
row any feelings unduly, but to ex-
press what must have been the feel
ings of Alban Caldwell and Mr.. Pear
son for some time after the big rain
last week. For that is the toll Of
young chickens which the rain took
of them The venture in which they
have been engaged for some months
had reached a point of success which
was attracting attention. Their poul-
try hatchery around on Third East
Street was built on scientific princi-

in most respects. But the big rain
revealed one mighty flaw in the works.
The house is built in sort of basin
of which the east boundary is the high
dump which forms Third East Street,
and such a flood as that last week
cannot be carried away fast enough
by the culvert there. Therefore the
