SOME HOT BALL GAME.

One Of the weirdest games Of base
ball we have ever witnessed was pull
ed off on the local diamond last Sun
day, when the Zeba nine was defeat
ed by the Dollar Bay team by the
score Of 16 to 13.
No scoring was done until the third
inning, when the Dollar Bay team
made three runs, Zeba doubling this
amount in their half Of the frame.
The score was tied in the sixth, z to
Z, and Dollar took the lead in the sew
enth by good hitting, coupled with err
rors on the part of the opposition. In
the eighth inning, with the bases full,
the Dollar Bay team made play at
the plate on an infield hit, with the re-
suit that the runner was safe, and
when this play failed the Dollar Bay
catcher threw the ball to second to
catch a man. The fans went wild
with joy when the ball was missed and
rolled over the hill, bringing in three
more men and putting Zeba in the
lead by one run. In the ninth Dollar
Bay tied the score, and in the tenth
made three more runs for good meas
ure.
Tollefson for the locals was the star
player in Sundays game, doing ex-
ceptionally good work with the stick.
He managed to pole one over the hill
for home run.
Zeba expects to play Ahmeek or
Baraga on the L'Anse diamond to-
morrow. q

MURDERER IS CAUGHT
AND PLEADS GUILTY.

The murder of Ivor Johnson at
Tioga on Wednesday of last week was
quickly cleared away this week, by
the arrest and confession of Jacob
Lii of Herman Lilli was brought up
before Judge O'Brien in the Circuit
Court yesterday, and after pleading
guilty to murder in the first degree,
was sentenced to Marquette prison for
life.
The confession of Lilli is very clear
and concise and shows that the mur-
der was one of the most cold-blooded
we have ever heard Of. The man was
arrested Tuesday at Taylor Siding,
where he was working, after process
of elimination and deduction, and was
brought to the county Jail at L'Anse.
The process of tracing the murder to
him is interesting, but the facts are
all contained in Lilli's confession, so
it would be but a repetition to chron-
icle them here. He remained in the
Jail from Tuesday until Thursday be-
fore he showed willingness to talk
and tell all he knew Of the matter.
Briefly, Lilli's confession is as fol-
lows: He says he left his home at
Herman at seven-thirty a. m. the day
of the murder and walked the eight
miles to Tioga, brooding over the af-
fair. He stopped in the woods several
times, and says that something seem
ed to draw him to the place where the
crime was committed. Upon arriving
near the place where he shot Johnson,
he saw the man alone, and stopping a
distance Of about two hundred yards
from him he raised the rifle to his
shoulder and fired. Johnson dropped
and when he arose Lilli says he was
glad, but Immediately after getting up
Johnson dropped again, with a gaping
wound through the back, and Lilli
says he knew then that the man was
dead. Lilli then ran all the way to
Herman, stopping at the Neiminen
iiOiHC oo tiot HC SOdiu CoSdOiSi OH a.
ibi if questioned, for he said that he
thought this alibi would be good if he
ran all the way to the house. He
then went homeI wyinging wet with
sweat, and told his wife that he had
had hard time getting one Of his
bulls home.
It has developed that Lilli has hac
several disputes with Johnson, the
last quarrel taking place the Sunday
before the shooting over two bulls be-
longing to Lilli, which Mr.. Johnsol
had mortgage on. johnson is cred
tied with having said that he woult
soon have possession of the animals
and this is supposed to have been th'
conversation that prompted the das
tardly crime.
Lilli is a man about forty years o.
age, with wife and eight children.

Nebraska householders may now

ratio to public eating houses from

or any family may purchase an en-
tire months supply for the entire
