INF ANTILE PARAL YSIS.

Cases. Of infantile paralysis are re-
ported in many localities in the state
Some observers and doctors believe
that an epidemic is due, and are
agreed that precautionary measures
should he adopted at once. This IS
germ disease, but said not to be com
munica BILE, and while little is known
of it as yet, great efforts are being
made to stamp it out in the state.
Flies are the chief cause of infantile
paralysis, the germ breeding in refuse
and manure piles. There is no need
of becoming alarmed, needlessly how
ever, it is well to be careful in the
matter. One way Of successfully treat
ing the disease is by giving the patient
wholesome food PROPERLY prepared.
This is. the. best medicine known for
developing resistance power, and one
easily obtainable. Great stress should
be laid on sWattings flies, because
science. claims that the cause of in
fantile paralysis is flies.

While Joseph Karl was on duty as
clerk at the local postofice, Sunday
night, someone entered the. rear lobby

che day to search for. the missing We

sion until late in the afternoon, when

LOSING STREAK
FOR LOCAL TEAM
LOST THREE OUT OF FOUR
GAMES PLAYED. LAST
WEEK.
OVERCOME BY. SHAK oPEE,
NEW HIGHLAND. AND
LIE SUEUR.

The local llteam has strucka
slump during the past week and;
dropped three of the four games played.
Shakopee, New. Richland and LIE SueurI
allScame out victors in the tussel with
the. ok New Ulm nine and the only
win to their credit was with Wanda.
LIE Sueurs Won Sunday.
The latest defeatacame at the hands
of the lie Sueur aggregation last Sum
day when thettwo teams met before a
crowd of 1000. people at Mankato.
The LIE Sueur team had been greatly
strengthened since their last defeat at
the hands Of the New Ulm nine, but
even with the added strength they
should not have won Sundays game.
The game, pitchers battle between
Hamann of New Ulm and sHenke of lie
Sueur, should have been won by New
lUlm ase.they had the only earned run
in the game New Ulm started the
scoring in the fourth inning, when Born
singled after one man was down. All
wild pitch, a passed ball and an error.
by the catcher brought him In. In the
sixth frame, series of errors by the |
New Ulm nine, a rank decision and a
single gave the locals opponents three
runs, which was too much to overcome.
Henke, the first man up in the fatal
sixth, was safe on an error by Standard.
Nelson bunted the ball, McGovern
fielding it and Shea covering first.
The lie Sueur umpire could not,see the
out, however, calling both men safe.
j. Nicholson sacrificed. Schwob hit
to Shea who made perfect peg home
but the ball bounced out of Born's
glove allowing the runner: to- be safe.
Lang hit sacrifice fly to Guentner.
e. Nicholson singled and Schwob
scored when Becker let the grounder
go through his hands. Schmidt hit the
ball towards short but G. Nicholson
got in the way and was called out on
the hit by batted ball rule.
New Ulm's second ruin came in the
eighth inning. Standard; the hrstf
man up singled. Oates hit to second,
who fumbled the ball, both runners
being safe. Deppe attempted to bunt,
but the ball went in the air and was
caught by Henke, who doubled Stand
ard at second. Shea then followed
with one of his famous three base
swats, scoring Oates, but. Born was
unable to connect safely, being out,
Schmidt to Dretchko.
It was a hard fought battle and lie
Sueur won. But, what gets our goat
is the fact that the LIE Sueur paper
comes out and claims the champion
ship. New Ulm defeated lie Sueurtwo
out Of three games and it will take at
least two more games to decide whether
they, have better team. Let's have
them and see who wins.

to assist in beautifying the city.

Quite a. number of historical spots
have been marked, chief among which
are the monument erected in Milford,
dedicated to the memory of those who
were killed in thatftown dur ing the up

the recruiting party was ambushed, a
marker near the Loretto Hospital,

played an important part during the
siege and defense Of, New Ulm.

Special to The Evening journal.

Special 20 The Evening journal.
SEAFORD, Del, June rs. - An
"old timer" OF this town witnessed
the game OF ball at Milford on Sat
urday between Dover and Milford, in
which Milford came out on the. long
end OF a 1-to-0 score by a home run
drive by George Heck" Townsend,
another "old timer" In the tenth in
ming. This same Heck" Townsend
was knocking home runs twenty
years ago, and Saturday his work az
the bat and at first base was one OF
the outstanding features Of the game.
He seems TO improve with age, for
today; notwithstanding the Peninsula
is flooded with younger players.
George still is one OF the most dread
ed batters. He originally PLAYED the
outheld and was possessed of a fine
throwing arm and was a sure catch
OF a fly ball. He still has a keen eye
and Is a speedy base runner.
About fifteen years ago he was IN
the series between Seaford and Cam
bridge. being connected with the lat
ter team.

ters, shows that he was a real
fighter. spent eighteen months actu-
ally at the front and was decorated
with the Croix de Guerre and Me-
daille Militaire.
His service record, which records
his every move for five years, shows
that he reported at the outbreak OF
the war in 1914 and was first At
tached to the Second Aeronautic
Division as a chauffeur. in which
capacity be served until he received
a license as a pilot May "a. 1915.

squadron and remained there three
months in active serice flying over
the German lines in a Farman two
scatter. He was sent back as a spare
pilot TO the general reserve head
quarters on August 16. 1915. to
await assignment TO another esca-
drille.
Twelve days later he injured his
leg in an accident, but recovered
and was sent back TO the front Sep
