Donaldson Hits Coast.

John Donaldson, the famous
negro pitcher who has played
around the northwest for years, is
now on the Pacific coast, where
they think he is a, whirlwind.
He is, and only the unwritten law
drawing the color line in baseball
has kept him from being a sensa-
tion. In, 1911 and 1912 he pitched
IS games against the best semipro-
fessio1lal teams and won 80. Last
year for the Affiliations he won 43
and lost three games. As a strike
out artist the black Waddell has
them all cheated. He has every
thing pitcher should have. He is
25 years old.
John McGraw is quoted after see
ing him pitch as saying that if
Donaldson was a white man he
would give $4,000 for him and
think he had made a bargain. Don
aldson has always been a sensation
in this country and seems to be go
ing at about the same rate again
on the Pacific coast. He expects to
be back with the Affiliations in
the midwest again this season.
Donaldson was on the mound
against Warren last summer at
Grand Forks when playing with the
Affiliations.

FIRST >SCANDINAVIANS
IN RED RIVER VALLEY.

A movement has been launched
among the Scandinavia1ls of the
Red River Valley to gather facts
regarding the valleys settlement by
the hardy Morse pioneers who had
such a large part in redeeming the
region from barren wilderness to a
state of productive civilization.
Dr. EIea,re'a, a jjaRl of Has
taken the initiative in the matter
and Scandinavians are urged to
correspond with him if they have
any facts that would be pertinent.
The first Scandinavian who set
tied in the valley was a Daniel Oh
son with family, who is named
among both the French and half
breed settlement at st. Joseph or
Walhalla in 1861.
The first Norwegian buried in
North Dakota was a soldier with the
name of Lund who was buried at
Fort Abercombie cemetery in 1862
or 1868.

O.. p. johnson, Wa1ren's violin
maker, has just completed the con
struction of two new violins, which
he took into our office last evening
to have them tested by one of our
printers, who is a 1nanipulator Of

who have hought his violins declare
them to be equal to those made by
makers Of established reputation.
Mr.. Johnson is also on expert re-
pairer and anyone taking violins or
stringed instruments to him for re-
pairs will be sure of having a sat
