The first game of the eight hun- dred point billiard contest between George B. Grigsby for years conceded the championship of this section of Alaska, and F.. F. Wells. q compara- lively recent addition to the ranks of local cue wizards. was held at the Board of Trade parlor last evening and attracted a large gathering of sport lovers. Pratically every seat was engaged long before the contest started and the fast play held the crowd in profound state of excite ment throughout the evening.
 The terms of the match designated that the games be played with 14.2 inch balklincs. 400 points to be played on each of the two nights play, mak- ing total of 800. points for the con- test. Grigsby proved the winner of the game last night but not until the spectators had seen some exciting play with the two contestants seldom more than few points apart and with the end totally undecided until the last moment of play. Grigsby start ed off with a fair lead which he inc creased for time as the game pro- gressed. When the fiftieth inning was reached, however. Wells. after several failures to drive the balls out of balk, made spurt and passed his opponent. The veteran Grigsby over too him in the following inning but was again passed by Wells a round or two later with run of eighteen which placed the latter sixteen points in the lead. It was then nip and tuck for few innings. but in the fifty seventh inning Grigsby again forged ahead with run which placed the score at a2s to 29O. Wells. playing an excellent game. again appeared in front in the 63rd inning with a score of S63 to 34S m his favor. By clever playing he maintained this lead until
 the scorer had challed up total of s99 points to his credit. With but one to go Wells then made an error which eventually lost him the game. Grigs- by's score at this juncture was Ss1 and in the following inning 1t was increased by 3. Wells failed in his next effort. and Grigsby ran the six which completed his string. The final score was: Grigsby 4o1. Wells s9s

Nome's response to the appeal of President Wilson on behalf of the Red Cross society has more than full filled the most sanguine expectations of local patriots as the handsome sum of s2,476 was netted. with few dol lars yet to come from various sources, as result of the efforts made during Red Cross week. In every way Nome has sustained her proverbial repr R. tion for great generosity and there will doubtless be few towns in the territory which will show a more srt : stantial responre tc tho cssl' of pa : troitism and compassion. The commit ee in charge of tts Ped Cross acti- vities desire to extend it's most si,- cere thanks to the citizens of the city who by their generous cooperation have made passible such creaitable donation to the cause.
 Following is the detailed statement of the sum collected for the Red Cross from various sources;

Residents of B street complain that a short fired from a small caliber rife from some point in the vicinity at a very early hour crashed through the upper story window of their home, passing directly over the slumbering occupants of the bedroom. From the situation of the house 1t appears very unlikely that the ball could have been defiected in such manner as to reach the window. The noise of the bullet penetrating the glass aroused the occupants of the house but buried survey of the neighborhood failed to reveal a sign of the person responsible for the shooting. Promis- cuous firing with guns in a thickly settled neighborhood is not only rep rehensible but criminal and offenders should be severely punished If caught.

SLIGHT REACTION
lin WHEAT TODAY

Chicago, ILL.,, July 24.-Wheat: Scat
tered selling of wheat caused reaction
as the coarse grains were weak. The
market is still waiting developments
at Washington, where the outlook in
regard to food legislation is still hazy.
Corn: The price tendency has been
easier and there has been rather free
commission house selling on the adj
vances, the weather conditions gener-
ally being favorable while the buying
demand has been more limited. Out
side buying especially being light.
Cash markets show no weakness and
there is a good demand for cash corn
while the offerings are moderate.
With good weather the market may
change in cash trade conditions and
the market will be easily oversold.
Oats: Sold off early, rallied sharply
and then reacted with the break in
corn. Shorts have covered freely the
last few days and in this respect the
market is in a weaker position, espe-
cially as the new crop of oats Will
soon begin to move. The market has
had a fair reaction and unless coun-
try offerings increase materially the
market will respond quickly to any
efforts of shorts to cover.
Provisions: The tone of provision
market was easy early but hogs were
firm and 10 cents higher. Offerings
were taken by commission houses on
the break. Cash trade is showing
some Improvement for ribs but trade

annual meeting at the fair ground,
IL may be decided to start the erec-
ton of a Red River Valley Memorial
museum.
'The first thing is to select a place.
Most people seem to think that the
A. c. campus is the best. The stu
dents in the Fargo and Moorhead
schools will be here in time to get
the best opportunity to learn the
history Of the valley and its develop
ment and the people.
"A few acres will be needed to be
dedicated to the Indians, furtraders,
soldiers and pioneers and settlers
and native born in the valley. A
couple typical Indian tents, some old
and well preserved Lighthouses fur
nished with household goods from
the early days will make the place
more interesting as an open air
museum.
but the topic tomorrow will be
how to make the start for a fire-
proof building, where invaluable
articles that can not be replaced II
lost can be saved, and exhibited.
Such a building completed was esti-
mated by Architect Hancock to cost
about 100000. After the place is
decided on we will have to find ways
and means to build part of a wing
for about $4,000 to $4,000. II the
old settlers and their children are
willing to donate rs cents every 8
months, this can be accomplished in
a rather short time.
an this automobile age each town
ship can be canvassed both for
money and at the same time for
relics. also for the history of each
section and of the people who broke
the land and since settled on it and
broke it, etc.
There might be other ways how
to stimulate this work and bring 1t
nearer to every one of us. We have
people of Indian descent of French,
from other states like Wisconsin,
illinois, ETC., from European states,
etc. An Indian room, French,
Irish, Norwegian, Scotch, Swedish,
English, Danish, German, ETC., will
tell about history prior to the set

ANOTHER BABY BOLLINGER
CASE CONES To. LIGHT
Operation Would Safe Life of Infant
But Leave II . Helpless
Cripple.
(By Assocla esd Fress.l

Chicago, July 24.-Many doctors
and nurses were interested today in
a child born yesterday in what was
pronounced hopelessly deformed
condition similar to that of Baby
Bollinger'', who was allowed to die
more than year ago when an opera
ton might have prolonged life.
The parents sent the child to
hospital last night agreeing to abide
by the verdict of the surgeon in
charge who decided that it would be
practicable to allow the infant TO die.
According to the decision Of the
surgeon the child Is to be fed as long
as there is life in the body, but no
operation is to be performed.
