High School Basket Ball
Teams to Put up Hard
Fights.

The high school district tourna-
ment will be held at the university
gymnasium on March 8 and 9. Many
teams have already signified their in
tentiOn Of entering the tournament,
and a very interesting meet is prom
Used. In the plan as laid down by the
authorities in charge of the high
school athletic activities. the state is
divided into four districts. All of the
teams desiring to enter the tourna-
ments, may enter the district tourna-
ment. The winners of the cham
pionships in the respective district
tournaments meet to decide the cham
pionship Of the state. This year, the
state championship tournament will
be held at Fargo.
The district tournament to be play
cd here will be very hard fought and
interesting. as the district contains
some very capable basketball teams.
Seven teams have already sent in
their entries to Prof. F. L. Thomp-
son. athletic director at the university,
who has charge of the tournament.
These teams are Mimic, Pembina, Mi
chigan. Petersburg, Grafton. Mayville,

thus far, with a very successful rec
ord. Petersburg and Michigan have
two very speedy aggregations, Peters
burg sustaining only two defeats
throughout their schedule. Michigan,
last, years state champion, is not as
strong as last year. but will make a
good bid for the championship. Lit
tie is known Of the strength Of May
Vile. as they have not met any Of
the teams in this section Of the dis
trict.
It IL extremely probable that sev-
eral other fast teams will be entered
in the competition. Grand . Forks,

both having strong teams. are expect
ed to enter. Devils Lake. victor over

The tournament. judging By the en-

bring forth so,ne very lively competi-

CHAMPION FANCY
SKATER OF O
IS TO PERFORM in
BISMARCK SUNDAY

Bismarck, n. D.. Feb. 26.-Dem-
onstrations of speed and fancy skat-
ing by the worlds champion of the
ice, John Karlsen, late of Minnesota
and now chief of the sales staff of S.
E. Bergeson & Co, will be offered
Bismarck sports lovers at the Custer
park rink at 3 o'clock Sunday after
moor. AS a skater and as a marathon
runner, John karlsen is international
~ famous. and, although he is now
more than forty years old, a rigid
regimen of physical training which
he laid down for himself as a boy has
so well preserved his powers that his
laurels have not been threatened in
recent years. 1t was karlsen. who at
the age of Al, clipped one minute and
IA seconds from the 25-mile mara
thon skating record established when
]. F. Donaghue did it in 1.31:29 at
Stamford. Conn, in 1898. That rec
ord had stood for % years. and Karl
sen shattered it at Lake of the Isles.
in the face of a cutting wind and
frigid cold.
Bismarck's new citizen who is des-
tined to put the North Dakota capital
on the worlds sports map was born
at Trondjhem. Norway, and he has
been prominent in athletics for 81
years. AS a marathon n he has
entered in many important club
events on both sides Of the Atlantic,
and in the halcyon days of cycling he
rode in the six days ven at Madison
Square garden. New York. and else
where. He is deeply interested in
athletics Of all forms, and his coming
to Bismarck is expected to give a for
ward impetus to a popular demand
which has existed for some time for
proper gymnasium facilities for the
capital city.

New York, Feb. 26.-Deal:ngs in

perceptibly after the first advance
with factional reactions in leaders

The market was almost at a stand
still during the mid-session, trading
centering in a few equipments and
s~pecialties. Baldwin Locomotive and
Sumatra tobacco were the chief fea-
lures at extreme advances Of 3 1-2@
3 3-4 points, respectively. g
Special stocks, notably those COM
prising the WAr group. were ! to 2
points higher at the opening Of to-
days market, presumably in conse-
quence of over night advices from

rally better but rails made little re-
Spouse, st. Paul issues displaying
further heaviness. Much of the ear
ly trading owed it's initiative to pools
