has been that about $4,000 game fish
have been placed in the river. They
included black bass. crappies, pickerel,
and catfish. The deputy warden has

DODGERS RETAIN BERTH.
Fort Dodge Directors Decide to Finish
Season, But May Not Be in Next Year

0SdSOVS Out way wv DC ~ I~SSS So''
The Fort Dodge baseball team Will
finish the season despite lack OF funds.
At recent meeting the directors OF
the club decided to finish out the pres
ent season, but there seemed to be
considerable doubt as to the Dodgers
remaining in the league in 1917. Just
what disposition will be. made OF the
franchise at the close Of the season Is
not known, but 1t Is said that 1t was
quite probable it would be surrendered
to some other city. At the present time
the Fort Dodge treasury shows de-
felt of $500, and the months pay roll
will increase the deficit to about $1.400.
Many members Of the association were
for surrendering the franchise at once.
The deficit at the end Of the season
will be made up by a guarantee list
which was circulated at the opening OF
the season. Over $500 has been
pledged and it is estimated that about
$4,000 will be necessary to pay all ex-
penses.
