SUNSHINE FLOODS PRISON WALLS
ASFlRST BASEBALL GAME OF The
SEASON lSPLAYED BY C0NVlCTS

Sunshine flooded the penitentiary
yesterday.
And more than hundred convicts
spent the happiest day in the months
1t was the opening of the prison base
ball season, with the usual Sunday
music and movie show in the evening
thrown in for good measure.
For the first time since winter
closed about the brick walls all the
convicts were out in the big enclosure,
either playing base ball or roofing
and basking in the sunshine. The
prison crowd of rooters are happy
but not hilarious, for months OF con-
finement is not conducive to hilarity
even on such a day as yesterday. They
rose to the Occa sion, however, when
in the last inning of the ball game
the prison team batted out a victory,
and the cheers reverberated against
the high walls.
Arthur Bauer gathered up his team
of "colts" an met the prison team
For the town team Mike Snyder was
catcher, Christensen pitcher, the two
alternating their positions in the lat
ter part of the game; A. Anderson
first base; Tom Cayou, second base:
Frank Roberts, third base; Bauer
shortstop; Joe Boehm, lef.tield; F.
Burhanan, rightfeld, and Oscar Raeen
righttield.
. Some in Fine Spirits.
The prison boys limbered up as long
as possible on the diamond, for it was

their first time in uniform. Some
were in exceptionally fine spirits and
their jokes all had prison tinge.
well, we'll, get a little life!" ex-
claimed Joe Snyder, umpire.
Huh, got life!' answered pris-
oner.
"Chief Yellowhorse, the prison
team pitcher, and Peoples, the colored
second baseman, stood most of the
"razzing" from fans and took it in
fine spirit.
Put him in the hole! Take him tC
the dungeon!" were heard from the
prison rooters when a player made a
particularly glaring error.
The score was not important eithe,
to the teams or the rooters for every
body had played in or seen the first
ball game of the season, and that was
glory enough. In the sixth inning
the prison team batted out seven runs
making the score II to 10 in their ia
vor, and the game was called to al.
Low the prisoners time to eat before
the movie show and music of the even
ing.
Over the Fence!
Al Anderson, whose long hits were
feature of last year Bismarck city
teams playing, packed a regular Babe
Ruth club yesterday and pushed a
ball across the centerield prison wall
the longest hit of the day.
ooh man, let me ride on that ball,
yelled a prisoner as it scared over the
prison wall.

Governor Samuel R. McKelvie, of
Nebraska, and his wife got through
the two years of his first term on

hope to OCCUPY the chair
For his second term the governor
is drawing $500 a year.
That figure, says Mrs. Mckelvie, is
between one and two thousand dol-
lars short Of the amount they spent
during the first term.
But we will be able to make out
some way" she smiled, referring to
the income from the governors !arm

Hire No Servants.
Governor and Mrs. McKeive's
beautiful 21-room home is kept up en-
tirely without the aid of servants.
Mrs McKelvie and her mother, who
lives with them, do all of the cook
ing and work. .
The McKelvies have never lived at
the executive mansion, preferrlns
their own residence.
THE governorship is only a tenn
porary honor at best" says the frst
lady, Governors are soon forgotten:
I doubt very much whether ! could
name the governor OF SIX yeas ago
without deep thinking.
Society bores me to death. It's so
much like bridge-unless you really
like it, you are certain to be bored.

HITS
HIGH SPOT IN
SUNDAY CLIMB
New Record For First Part of
April is Established
For City

Old mercury started out to hitch
his wagon to a star Saturday and
Sunday and came pretty near doing ii.
The weather bureau today reported
that the thermometer reached 81 de-
grees above zero Saturday afternoon
and between and o'clock Sunday
afternoon it was S2.l.
These temperatures establish new
record for the first part of April, 1t
was stated at the weather bureau, al
though the thermometer has risen as
high as 80 during the latter part VI
the month.
The sudden rise must have melted
lot of the ice in the Missouri be-
fore it could float past Bismarck, as
there was very little ice running In
the river today, and the drive had
dropped a foot and half since yes
terday.
A week ago Sunday, Easter, the
thermometer was close to zero.
And it is hard to believe but the
weather forecast is "snow probable to-
night and Tuesday,
