Armstrong allowed the leaders of
the Shore circuit only two hits in the
game on Sunday, but Waukesha man
aged to defeat Two Rivers by score
of to l.
The second inning tells the entire
story. Armstrong walked two, two
were hit by pitched balls and with the
aid of two costly errors three runs
were sent across the plate which won
the hard fought contest. After this
fatal inning WaukeSha could do little
or nothing with the speedy southpaw
and were held at his mercy.

TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO

ADONt ten tcct DclOW the surface IN
cellar which is being dug on York
street in this city a tamarack log was
found This of itself is nothing
strange. But when it is known that it
| was in a gravel pit which gave every
evidence of being a sedimentary de
post, the fact becomes interesting. The
log must have been washed in when
the lake shore reached that point and
it has been there in all probability a
thousand or more years. 1t is just as
sound as the day it was deposited
there. One end of it projected into
the sand adjoining the gravel deposit.

On last Thursday afternoon about
three o'clock, William Schoch, a young
man about l9 years of age, met with
a terrible calamity which caused his
death in a few hours after its occur
renee. 1t seems he was employed to
haul wood from some point in the city
to Fricke'S brickyard, near Little Man
itowoc river, and while thus engaged a
stick of wood fell from the wagon and
striking the horses feet started them
to running. During his eXertions to
stop the team, part of the wood
moved from the wagon, throwing him
under it, and the weight of the wood
and wagon passed over him. He lived
about two hours, and suffered much,
when death ended his misery. The de
ceased was a good member of the Pro-
lection Hook and Ladder company and
much beloved by his fellow members,
who deeply feel the loss of their
brother The funeral took place on
last Saturday afternoon and was large
ly attended by relatives, friends, and
the different fire companies of the city.

OFFICERS SEARCHING FARMS in
HOPES OF FINDING WRlSKEY

Sheriff A. r. Scofield and Deputy
Vandenoever, assited by F. l.. Watkins,
of the State Enforcement league and
Asst. Attorney General Sheets, togeth
er with half a dozen or more opera
tives, started Il cleanup campaign for
Minot and vicinity that promises to
cause Il good deal of consternatian
among certain circles.
SuSpccting that :: number Of farms
in this vicinity might have been used
as Il cache for liquor, Mr. Watkins
ordered farms owned by the following
searched: Joe Young, Simon Ehr, f,
Kelly. O. r. Brown, two Of c. H. Par
ker, John Hoellinger and the home Of
Clyde Lacy. All First st. N. e, Minot.
At the farms no liquor was found at
all and at the Lacy home one bottle
of whiskcy and a bottle of Port wine
We're found.
The officers have spent the week in,
the city and it is understood that
many warrants will be served before
the end Of the week. The owners OF
all OF these farms above mentioned
were not suspected of having anything
to do with the liquor traffic, but sever
al of the farms are unoccupied and it
was thot that perhaps those places
were being used as rendezvous.

Can of Gasoline Soaked Rags Placed
Under Berge Observation-Disclosures
ed and Blaze Put Out-Ele-
vatOr at kOngsberg Burned.

An attempt was made Monday night
to burn the Berge elevator at Parshal,
by placing gallon can filled with
rags soaked in gasoline under a shed
adjoining the elevator, then touching
a match. The can was placed where
the blaze would get a good draft, but
1t appears that the fellow overplayed
his hand. The draft was so strong
that the flames instead of going up,
was blown to the side. The fire was
discovered by some young men re
turning from party and was put out
before any damage was done.
The Berge elevator was located far
thest to the east and had this caught
fire, all OF Parshalrs five elevators
would most certainly have been burn
ed. The elevator contains 1000 bush
els of wheat and the other elevators
are practically full.
The same night. the elevator at
kongsberg, located between the towns
of Max and Drake. was burned with
several thousands of bushels of grain.
what seems strange is that until just
recently the kongsberg elevator was
owned by the same company rha,

the community and the city in which
we live benefits us. There is no
fear that the solicitors will be discour-

pleasant for them as you can. Bear
in mind that there is no one doing
this work for the love of extracting
donations out of people. The work
ers are all volunteers, who donate ther

cause. They will argue with no one.
They will not tell anyone how much
