Minneapolis Tribune (6): Albert
Pfaender, New Ulm attorney under in
vestlgation some time ago by the Min
nesota State Bar association for alleged
disloyalty, delivered a Fourth of July
address at Gaylord, MIMI, in which he
issued solemn warning against luke
warm patriotism and urged Germans to
ban their native language. -Four thous-
and persons heard the address.
Mr.. Pfaender fayed the German Ian
guage newspapers and condemned the
German-American alliance and the Gin
sidious German propaganda agents Of
the kaiser.'' Word had gone out
among the farmers that Mr.. Pfaender
would bring message of particular sig
niticance to the German farmers and
they journeyed for miles around to hear
him. Fully 90 per cent of his audience
were Germans.
"As one Of those who took part in
the New Ulm meeting, I have hereto
fore publicly stated that it was a mis-
take and have expressed the deepest
regret over the unfortunate consequent
ces,' said Mr.. Pfaender. II have since
that time endeavored to erase the i'm
preston as to my attitude and senti-
ments, and am glad to have this oppor-

BRAuFARD GETS AWAY WITH ONE
AND STAPLES GOT THE
OTHER "

Approximately 1850 people attended
the ball game held at the fair grounds
Fourth Of July afternoon. This is the
largest crowd that has turned out to a
ball game for many years at least, 1896
being taken in at the gate and turned
over to the local Red Cross chapter.
The Red Cross ladies also had booth
at the grounds at which they sold ice
cream cones, pop, cigars and other az
ticles in the confectionery line.
Up to the ninth inning the game was
the closest fought for on the local diam
ond this year, the score being tie up
to the first of the seventh. Little Falls
got it's eye on the pill in the second
inning and swatted it to the tune OF
-four runs. In their turn at bat in the
third inning Brainerd made a rally and
tied the score by bringing in four runs.
Neither team scored then until the first
of the seventh when the locals tailed
again for three times making the score
to 4. Neither team brought in run
in the eighth and it looked as if the To-
Gals had the game all slowed away. In
the last of the ninth Brainerd again
tied the score by bringing in runs. La
Force although he had been throwing
an excellent game weakened in the
tenth and was relieved by P. Newman
who was unable to stop the Brainerd
batters. The result was that Brainerd
crossed the plate eight times. Little
Falls managed to squeeze in two runs
making the score at the end Of the
tenth Is to 9.
Following is the box score Of the

Lose to Staples
The local Red Cross baseball team
was again defeated Sunday at the hands
Staples by a score of to 3. As has
been the case for the last two or three
games that Little Falls has lost, they
lost the game in the ninth inning, when
Staples squeezed in two runs. The To-
Gals obtained six hits to their opponents
eleven.

games played by the other teams in
