BALL GROUNDS LAID
OUT PREPARATORY
TO WORK ON STAND

Residents near 18th and oxford
streets are coniecturing as to the nasuie
of the gigantic enterprise indicated by
the extensive driving Of pegs on a six
acre tract in that vicinity.
According to Biddie Bishop. Salem's
most vitality important industry will
exist here. For on this site. the great
American game after years OF negecl
in the Capital City. viii come into its
own.
With Carl Bahlburg. contractor in
charge of building operations. Man
ager Bishop laid out the location of
the grand stand and bleachers of the
new park Saturday. Trucks will soon
be unloading the first order of 5000
feet of lumber for the bleachers and
construction will start at once.
Contractor Mahlburg is already pre-
pairing the ground for the piers of the
main structure. the grandstand, which
will be so arranged that an uninter-
rupted view will be afforded the base
ball fans.
Next week, big Twin City tractor
will be galloping around the grounds.
in exact imitation of Jack Hayes,
heavyweight catcher for the Senator'S
Jacks weight has never interferred
with the home runs which his 500 per
cent batting record assures.
And while members of the team are
being discussed, don't forget that the
Senators are anxlously awaiting the
outcome of the financial campaign, for
unless Salem has a good park it will
be absolutely impossible to register all
of the Al games scheduled here at the
present time.
As an investment, this baseball par,
may well be considered Salems most
important enterprise, for the national
game affords wholesome relaxation
and amusement alike for the tired bust
ness man. or the workers in the Juice
plants, the canning factories and the
mills.

Justice C. A. label had two young
men up before him last night on the
charge of using the mails for fraudu-
lent purposes. The young fellows
names are Pulse and Dahl. 1t seems
that the two heard Of family who
had some relative that was lost and
they evidently saw little easy money
and wrote to the family, informing
them that for the modest sum of $3.50
they would restore the lost one. 1t
developed, however, that the two
knew nothing about it, as well as the
fact that they were using Uncle SANS
mails to defraud. Pulse plead guilty
and was bound over to the next term
of the district court, while Dahl asked
for an examination, pleading not
guilty. They are now reposing in the
county Jail, awaiting action Of the au-
thorities.
