BITTEN BY RABID SKUNK.
VintOn Girl Goes to Iowa City for

Iowa City, June 5.-Hydrophobia
from a skunk's bite faces Miss Isma
Grovert, aged Is, who was attacked
by skunk, while she was walking on
the banks Of the Cedar river, near
her home in Vinton. After it had bit
ten her ankle, she killed the animal,
and her father, member of the board
Of supervisors, sent the brain hither
TO the Iowa University bacteriologi-
cal laboratories. Examination proved
that the creature had been a victim
of rabies, probably having been bit
ten by a mad dog in the nearby
woods. The girl therefore, was
sent here to the Iowa laboratories.

ment. Hawkeye scientists, who have
her case in charge, believe they will
save her life. An older woman with
Miss Grovert was also attacked by
the skunk, but escaped unbitten.

In the ninth inning things
became hot for Umpire Farley on a
decision at home. Hoeg was on
third, a wild pitch ball went back to
the wire netting, Hoeg came home
on it, but as the ball bounded back
Sullivan recovered it and threw it to
Shelley who was covering home and
touched Hoeg as he slid into the
plate. Umpire Farley did not know
that there were no ground rules
made so he called Hoeg out, but after
things were discussed among the
ball players he called Hoeg safe. The
above cut is very good picture of
the way he was surrounded by the
excited bunch of ball players Things
sure looked hot for Farley fer the
time being. We will say that al
though this is the first game we have
seen Farley umpire, he did fine, and
we believe ne is ION the square" If

DEBORAH LOSES.
TT. Atkinson Defeats DEBORAH at the
Fort Last Sunday by Score of
3 tO7.

With John Peterson at the wheel,
Manager Hogan's Little Four League
team journeyed to Fort Atkinson last
Sunday in Gus Haugen's big Buick
auto truck.
They crossed bats with the Fort
and although there were quite a
number of inexcusable errors in the
game, it was hard fought and inter-
|esting throughout.
During the first three or four in
nings DEBORAH succeeded in getting
men on the bases, filling them twice,
but were unable to score. But at last
they drove away this ill spirit and at
the end of the ninth had secured Z
runs, but Fort Atkinson had s, which
gave them the game.
DEBORAH hit Shelley hard and free
ly, securing IL good hits and 2 sac
rifice hits, while the Fort got good
hits and 2 sacrifice hits. Shelley also
walked men.
This game should have been De-
corahs, but as base ball goes along
the road of luck and chance, and
it went lucky for the Fort boys Sun
day, DEBORAH had to drop down in
second place in the Little Four
League.

IOWA'S NEW INDUSTRY.
Hawkeye State May Become Leader
In Art Pottery Production.

Ames, June "a new industry
for Iowa is given encouragement in
the announcement by the ceramic
engineering department at Iowa State
College of its intention of hiring an
eastern art pottery expert to come to
Ames and cooperate in tests to be
carried on there next fall to demon
strate the unsurpassed quality of the
art pottery clay deposits of Iowa.
The expert, whose name has not
yet been announced, will work with
H. F. Staly, of the department, in
producing an exhibit which it is pre-
dicted will reveal Iowa clay deposits
as some Of the most valuable in the
country.
Iowa could be the greatest art
pottery producing state in the union
if she would simply develop her un-
limited deposits of high class clay
which lie along the Des Moines riv-
er and its tributaries" says Mr.. Staly.
"These deposits are of just as high a
grade as the clay used in making
lockwood, Van Bicycle or any other
high class art pottery.
Mason City was the reply when
| asked the manufacturer of a prize
art pottery exhibit at Chicago last
year where he got his raw clay. This
shows that the people of Iowa must
be awakened to the value of the de-
velopment of this industry in their
own state.
1.-THE industry has the unusual ad-
vantage of being able to distribute its
product at very low freight cost be-
cause it is so light. Ten dollars will
carry $1,000 worth of the art pot
terry to any point in the country.
In our work next fall we intend
to turn out an exhibit of art pottery
that will demonstrate to Iowans just
what high class pottery their clays
produce" An exhibit Of the work
will be made at the 1917 state fair.
