Leagues Close This Week.

All of the remaining leagues will
close their schedules during the
week and in nearly every organiza-
ton the pennant winners have al
ready been established. But there
are several in which the final week s
play may alter the present standing
of teams materially. IN the Antlers'
league the Bards have a cinch with a
five game lead over their nearest
league the Merchants National lave
been voted another pennant for sew
eral weeks past. The Tylers have
things practically their own way in
the Elks league, the Federals look
good in the Postoffice league, V lille
the Schafer & KOehlers are a pipe
in the United league.
But there are others wherein the
sailing is not so smooth. There is
a hot scrap on in the Federal league,
where any one of three clubs, the
Antlers. F'awns and Antlers, must be
taken into consideration. For nearly
the whole route the Fawns have
predominated but last week they
ere surpassed by the Antlers. The
Tails have been forging their way to
the top in surprising manner. and,
taking their handicap into consider
alton, in their contest against the
leaders this week, are a good bet.
unless the Fawns should win all OF
the games against their opponents.
The Lumber league, that is the
three top teams. Naples, Gums and
Pines, have been like an insurrec-
ton in Mexico. as there has been a
systematic series of alienation be-
tween these teams for the top of the
heap throughout the season. a three
team tie is possible at the conclusion
of the schedule in the event the
Pines win three games from the
Naples and the Oaks take the Gums
for a brace Of games.
What has been a furious scrap all
season was practically ended last
week in the Printers league, when
the Hihberdidits won the odd game
from our News Times boys. thus Civ
ing the former a two-game advant-
Uge over the latter in the stretch
which seems like too Dig a handicap
to overcome where the teams are
so well matched as in the Printers
league

Serious Situation.

\ very serious situation confronts
the Temple league bowlers, where
the Toasts, Tusks and Bucks have
made the running extremely hazard
Gus for the past six weeks During
the past two years the Tusks have
had easy sailing and have been vot-
ed the panic almost as soon as the
schedule was compiled. However,
this year things are different and
the surprise of the league are the
Bucks. This team has been content
for years TO make a dash at the
outset and fall by the wayside, but
have now developed into regular
fighters.
The Studebaker and Trio leagues
closed their schedules with the
greatest margin for the winners in
the history OF the two organizations.

the winners from the runner-uP.

Badly Hurt in Runaway

Portland.-While coming down Dill
ley hill, a horse driven by Mrs. Roger
Smith, became frightened and ran
away. The occupants of the buggy,
Mrs. Smith and daughter, Betty, and
Mrs. Will Curry and daughter, Char
lotte, were thrown out and all severe
ly bruised Little Charlotte Curry
has been unable to move one of her
limbs since the accident, it being inn
possible to decide whether the bone
is cracked or the limb just badly
bruised. Betty Smith was cut about
the mouth and on the face.
A part of the harness giving way,
letting the buggy strike the horses
legs, is supposed to have caused the
accident.

Mulliken.-MulIiken is to have
electric lights, sa soon as a special
election can be authorized. The
council has declared itself in favor of
the proposition, and the townspeople
are overwhelmingly for it. Two
years ago, electricity seemed almost
within their grasp when the Com
monwealth Power company partly
agreed to extend its lines from Grand
Ledge, but tbs plan fell through
with, owing to the increasing cost of
copper. This time j. III. Henskey,
proprietor of the local motion picture
theater, which operates its own dy-
namo, has offered to install a plant
and wire the town if he is given a
franchise.

Injured in Runaway

Portland.-The second serious run
away within a period of two days
took place when Sidney Osman and
his son-in-law, John Sherrard, were
hurt. The men were driving a colt,
owned by ]. w. RAIDER, and were near
Joseph Spitzley's place, on the Look
inglass road, when the horse took
fright at dog and broke into a run.
Mr.. Osman jumped out of the buggy,
caught his foot on one Of the wheels
and fell to the ground, striking his
head with such force as to cause con-
cussion Of the brain. The injured
man was placed in Mr.. Spitzley's
auto and taken to DIR. Browns Of
fee, where he was cared for. 1t was
several hours before he regained con-
seriousness. No bones were broken.
Mr.. Osman was later taken to his
home, where he has since been confin-
ed to his bed from the effects of the
fall and bruises about the body.
Mr.. Sherrard, the other occupant
remained in the buggy until it
struck a telephone pole in front of
the house occupied by Mr. and Mrs.
Ira Adams, where he was thrown
out, striking on his side. Spectators
ssv he turned several somersaults be-
fore he landed. He, too, was badly
bruised.

girls was organized here with Mrs.
Carrie Gillian as guardian. The girls
range in age from about IL to Is

dent; Lenore Silsbury, secretary; and
Ida Hicks, treasurer.

Child Severely Burned

st. Johns.-Jennie Walker, the
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Sanford
Walker, was seriously burned by
boiling water. The child had accom-
panied her mother to the home of
Mrs. A. E. Flucke and was sitting
near the kitchen stove while her
mother was washing. 1t is thought
that she, i'm moving about, started to
fall and attempted to regain her bal
ance by grasping the edge of boiler
partly filled with boiling water. The
contents were thrown upon her and
she was terribly burned from her hips
down. DIR. j. t Abbott was sum-
moned and later ordered her removed
to her home. 1t is thought that she
will recover.

Cheaper Than to Buy Coal

Charlotte.-Whlle 1T Is gong TO be
cheaper to go to Florida than to buy
coal in Michigan, E. G. Swift, of
Nashville, formerly of KalhmoI is
merely following his annual custom
when he leaves the last of the month
for Florida although he says all he
figures this change of climate costs
him is the carfare. Mr.. Swift spent
last winter in California but he pre-
fers Florida to CALIFORNIA; sunshine.
He says last January it rained every
day during the month but three, and
the same was true of February. Mr..
Swift is brother of A. p. Swift, the
well-known Kalamo farmer and Alden
B. Swift, a former legislative repre-
sentative from this county now liv-
ingsin Kansas. Mr.. Swift says this
year is the first time in forty years
they missed the county fair but the
rainy weather kept them away this
time. Mr.. Swift was here Saturday

Fell From Buggy-Head Crushed
X. of P.'s Eat Rabbits

Lake Odessa.-The annual rabbit
feed of the X. of p. lodge was pulled
off last Tuesday night. The local
lodge entertained visitors from Ionia
and Belding, and the supper was quite
a success.
The two sides were captained by
Len ANYWAY and Ralph Scheidt, and
there seems to be some doubt as to
who really won the hunting contest,
which carries with it the supper at
the hands Of the losers. 1t is said
that some of the X. of P.'s look for
ward to this annual hunt with such

Residents Were Surprised
Ionia. - Four brothers, William
Frederick, Bernhard, Frank and Rob-
ert Pretzel, all of Orange township,
took out their first naturalization
papers following their arrest by the
deputy state game warden. They had
labored under the impression that
they had right to hunt in Michigan
and had obtained hunting licenses, but
on investigation it appeared that
none of them were American citizens,
their father having taken out only first
papers. A fine of $3.50 apiece was
given them, not to mention that they
were obliged to revolk their licenses
and obtain new ones after taking out
their first papers. Many have the
impression that Michigan residents
have the right to hunting licenses, but
the privilege belongs only to citizens.
Three of the brothers were born in
Neutzenettin and the fourth in Ank-
lam, Germany.
