by broad breathing spaces, that invite
corresponding breadth and height

Mother Stacker Rounded
Up and Sent to Fort
Smelling This Morning

The watchful eye of Uncle Sam
brought to light another Stacker, this
week who failed to comply with the
laws for the registration of men be-
tween the ages of 81 and 81. Louis
Kind, laborer, employed on the John
Veeder farm north of Melrose, was
arrested Tuesday morning on the
charge Of failing to register. Klns
claimed that he did not know how olo
he was; that his father had turn (
him away from home when he was
eight years cold and that he had los'
track of his age. He was taken TO
Melrose by F. J. Bergman and ex-
annined ythe Board, who pronounced
him fit for military service. This
morning, Thursday, he was taken to
Fort Smelling.

Senator ierre Hilbert
Of Melrose wil Seek Re
election as Senator

! Senator Pierre Hilbert of Melrose,
filled for denomination as candidate
for senator from the 46th senatorial
district, with County Auditor Nick
Thomey at st. Cloud today, Thursda.
The Herald is pleased to note that
the senator has decided to ask the
citizens of this district comprising all
of Stearns county save and except the
city of st. Cloud and four adjacent
townships, to return him to this I'M
portant office.
Senator Hilbert has been a pains
taking, conscientious and intelligent
official, ever looking after the inter-
ests of his district and state. He Is
one of the big men of Stearns county
and stands high with his colleagues,
In the coming session of the leglsla-
ture he will be much better equipped,
because Of his experience, to serve his
constituency than any new man pos
sibly can.
Senator Hilbert is stalwart Amerl-
can and he will make his campaign
with 100 per cent Americanisnh as his
slogan, standing squarely upon his
record in the preceding two sessions
of the legislature.
The people of the district believe in
the senator, and while he will have an
opponent the Herald does not believe
for one instant but what Senator Hill
bert will be reelected by a rousing
majority. It is certain that Sank
Centre will rally back of him almost
to a man.

BURNED TO DEATH.

Recently at Eden Valley, Miss
Agnes Beuchele was severely burned
and later died as the result of up
setting a hand lamp. The young
woman was sewing before retiring.
She set the lamp on stand near the
bed and with sewing dropped on the
bed and fell asleep. The lamp upset
and set the bed and Miss Beuchele's
clothes afire. She awoke and ran
down stairs with her clothes ablaze,
which served to make matters worse.
By the time the flames were ex-
tinguished she was badly burned. All
possible was done to alleviate her suf-
fering, but she died the following
evening.

WRONG MAN NAMED.

Last weeks Herald named G. F.
Ladner of st. Cloud as county food
commissioner in calling attention to
the requirements of registering supply
of -four on hand. Mr.. Ladner called
the office over the phone Tuesday and
said that he was being flooded with
letters from people in this section of
the county, and requested that the
right man be named. Frank j.
Thielman of st. Cloud is the county
food commissioner. AS he offices with
Mr.. Ladner all of the communications
eventually reached the right party.

AMERICAN LEAGUE
HAS SAFE EDGE
IN SERIES won

NEW YORK, Aug. 31.-Regardless
of the outcome of the coming World
Series the lead secured in recent years
by the American League teams is suf-
ficient to hold the National League in
check though the senior league stand
ard bearers were to capture the base
ball classic in the easiest possible
fashion. The clash of 1918 will be the
fourteenth under the auspices of the
National Commission and of the thir-
teen series which are now part of dia-
mond history the American League
clubs have won eight while five have
been the portion Of the National.
The last victory by National
League team was the record perform
ance of the Boston players in 1914,
when the Braves swept the Philadel-
phia Athletics before them in four
straight games, which caused the
eventual disruption of the famous
Shibe Park baseball machine. Previ-
Gus to that time the record for the
shortest series was held by the Chi
cago Nationals of 1907. In that year
the team, led by Frank Chance, de-
feated the Detroit Americans, four
games to none, but the series required
five contests, as the opening game re-
suited in to ? tie.
But one other series developed tie
game. This occurred in the meeting
Of the New York Nationals and the
Boston Americans in the memorable
conflict Of 1912. This series, which
still holds the record for number of

GIANTS WILL PLAY
ATHLETICS MONDAY

The fans of Richmond are going
to get their moneys worth of base
ball in the next few days for on Mon
day the Giants play two games with
the Richmond Athletics. The first
game will be played in the morning
at 10 o'clock and the second at 2:45
o'clock In the afternoon.
The Athletics have not played for
some weeks, but they expect to win
both games Monday Hawekotte will
probably pitch the first game for the
Athletics and MINER the second.
Hawekotte swears that he will win
his game because he lost one hard
luck game TO the Giants and one game
was tied with them, Hawekotte has
been going good in the Saturday after
noon league and should hold the hard.
hitting Giants to very few hits. Min
ner also can be counted on to hold his
opponents to few runs and hits.
Another reason the Athletics should
win is because the Giants will proba-
bly, be tired after playing two hard
games Sunday Afternoon. The winner
OF the City championship will be de-
cided when the Athletics and Giants
play Monday unless a later game can
be arranged between the winner and
the winner of the S. A. L. pennant.
The Giants already have one game
toward the series, but the Athletics
have a good chance to win neverthe-
less.

FAST MuNCIE TEAM
EXPECTED TO GIVE
GIANTS HARD FIGHT

The fastest visiting team to appear
on the Richmond ball diamond will
be here Sunday when the Muncie Val
entines come to town. The games
will be played at Exhibition Park and
the Giants will have a hard time win
ming from the Muncie boys as they
have been playing the best there is"
and coming out on top.
Last Sunday the Richmond Giants
wiped the earth up with the Piqua
Coca Colas and thus proved to the
Richmond fans that they could win
from the Cokes. Richmond has only
lost three games this season and those
three are to the Farmland club.
The strength of the Muncie team
can only be judged by the Farmland
team as that is the only team this
season that both Richmond and Mum
Gle have played against. AS the fans
know Richmond lost three games to
Farmland but the Valentines won
from Farmland.
Shirk the Muncie second baseman,
formerly played with the Anderson
Eagles. Ellis the short stop played

nineteen year old wonder pitcher

went full eight contests before the
Boston Red Sox emerged victors.
More than a quarter Of million of
fans attended the games and the gate
receipts were trifle more than $4OO.-
900. Each player on the winning team
received $4,024, while the losing Giants
found balm for their defeat in the
fact that their end amounted to 1886
per man.
Although the American League teams
hold safe margin in series won the
total in games and runs is far closer
OF the seventy-two games played in
the thirteen series to date, the junior
league team has won thirty-seven and
the National league clubs thirty-three
while two ended in ties. The lead in
runs is almost as narrow for the Amer
lean League teams have amassed a
total of 244 in the seventy-two games
to the Nationals 239.
