IMPORTANT NOTICE

On and after January LIST,
1918, the price Of the Register
will be $500, strictly in advance.
The continued high cost Of
everything that enters into
newspaper production makes it
imperative. Publishers in South
Dakota and throughout the IA
ton have come to realize that,
at present prices, even the
smaller papers cannot meet
their costs on $3.50 to a moth
ing Of profit. The Register is
running more columns Of read
ing matter than any weekly in
the State for $3.50 but we are
going TO give everybody an OPP
%portunity to take advantage Of
the present price until January
1st. We feel that the large and
growing list Of Register sub
scribers are entitled 10 due and
timely notice Of our action in
this respect so that if they care
to renew at the old price they
can do so.

New York. April 30.-Leaders in the
| major league found the going hard the
last week, with New York challenged
for the National league championship
by st. Louis and Chicago, and Boston
fighting hard for first place in the
American. Except for Cleveland and
Philadelphia in the American, the big
league teams were about evenly
matched. Six in the National. and four
in the American broke even on games
won and lost
Inclement weather caused the post
ponement Of thirteen games in the
two leagues.
Giants Lead Is Cut.
New York's lead in the National
was cut down during the week, as
McGraw's men could only break even
on the four games played. The series
with Boston ended with victory, and
the series with Philadelphia began
with the defeat of Alexander. On FRI
day and Saturday, however, New York
lost, being able to score only one run
in each game. The temporary absence
Of HerZog and Zimmerman, the lead
Ing batsmen, probably affected the
playing Of the leaders. st. Louis had
a hard series with Pittsburgh, and
broke even in the four games.
Cardinals Playing Better.
The Cardinals appear to be playing
better ball than any of the other west
ern teams.
Brooklyn and Boston renewed hos
tilities for 1917 on Wednesday, and
battled for IL innings to a six-six tie
game, the first Of the year. In the con-
test Saturday the Braves won through
the effective pitching Of Tyler. Cincin-
natl was the only National league
team to win more games than it lost.
The Reds took three out of five with
Chicago, and broke even in two games
against Pittsburgh.
Philadelphia was the best winning
team in the American league, captur-
ing three out of four games.
One victory was gained over Wash
ington and two over New York. Bush
pitched the Mackmen to victory Mon
day and Saturday.
Chicago lost three games in a row to
Cleveland. Rowland's men are not hit
ting hard, and the three games they
won were each gained by one run. One
game was won on only two hits.
The leading eastern teams, Boston
and New York, each broke even on
four games. The Yankees took two
games from Boston early in the week,
one being a no-hit game by Mogridge.
/ But the Red Sox came back by beat
ing Washington. while New York was
falling before Philadelphia Cleveland
improved, and the Indians give fair
promise of repeating their perform
ance Of 1916. as their pitchers are
working good. ...-...--.-s-

pushing Kansas City into third place.
Milwaukee with six victories and
