CUBS CONFIDENT OF
VICTORY TOMORROW.
INF|NAL HOME GAME.
CUBS TO PLAY LAST GAME ON
LOCAL GROUNDS TOMORROW
500 PONTIAC RIOTERS TO &C.
COMPANY TEAM TO OTTAWA.

Although the weather conditions
within the past twenty-four hours
have not been of the best, and that
only fair weather is predicted for to-
morrow, local baseball officials and
fans looked forward to the biggest
event In Ottawa baseball when the
Pontiac Athletics clash with the
Cubs, bringing the local baseball sea-
son to an unwelcome ending tenor
row afternoon. A record breaking
crowd, despite the bad seating &C
commodations, is expected to attend
the final attraction OF the season.
Up till the time when the huge
amphitheater at the grounds was re-
duced to heap Of smoldering ruins,
due to the dastardly work of fire
bug, the Ottawa Cubs had put in a
most successful season. Their record
was excellent and some of the fastest
and best semi.pro teams in the coun-
try were forced to defeat by them.
They were just going fine, the Chica-
70 Cubs were scheduled to play here
and also several other prominent
clubs Then came the big blow. the
burning of the large amphitheater.
As result, baseball in ottawa was
forced to an abrupt ending. The fea-
ture game with the Chicago Nation
ais and others were called off.
Nevertheless tomrrows attraction
is expected to make up for all of the
games called off. Pontiac having won
three games from Dunn's charges is
cocker than ever and they are plan
ming on the fourth consecutive win
over the locals. Moose" Romine, for
mer Three | mounder, is scheduled
to occupy the rubber for them and
indications point to an exciting pitch
er's battle between he and Pitcher
Jimmy Lynch. The game has attract
ed countrywide attention and fans
from surrounding localities are go
ing to attend. Five hundred Living
ston county rooters are going to come
to this city tomorrow to witness the
game.
1t will be the last chance for OF
tawa fans to see Wilmeroth. Charley
Roth, Muggles and the other heavy
swatters of the team in action at the
north side lot. Besides it will be their
last chance to see Jimmy Lynch work
that southpaw Of his. The Cubs are
going to play rings around the Sc
date folks from Pontiac tomorrow.
They will give Lynch all the backing
and support available that they might
close the season with the biggest vic
tory yet on records, over Pontiac.
They are going to make lot Of
noise and are going right out after
Romine's scalp at the start of the
game That old time batting bonn
bardment will be unraveled tomor-
row, while Lynch, the master of the
situation, will turn loose with every
thing he has. The game will be call
ed promptly at 3 p. m, with Umpires

crickets in huge armies swooped
down upon the crops. The farmers
tried to eliminate the pest without
success. Transportation at the time
was difficult, means to obtain food
stuffs from distantspoints We're limit
ed, and the situation looked critical.
When practically everyone had
given up hope of saving any part of
the crops, the seagulls, termed by
old Mormons as the messengers
from heaven" appeared. They did
not touch the grain but warred on
the crickets and in short time had
ridden the fields of the pest. There
are no records to show from whence
the birds come.
The seagull is Utah's sacred bird.
1t is unlawful to kill it. Many of the
people of this state hold it in affec-
tionate memory and during the sum-
mer thousands give of their bread to
the birds that may be seen in large
numbers at Saltair, a. resort a few
miles from here on the Great Salt

Radium Cancer Cure

the Gecent visit to the United States
of Nine. Curie, it's discoveFr, scien-
lists in this country are making new
progress in treating cancer with ra-
dunn, according to r. g. Moore, chief
chemist of the u. s. Bureau Of Mines.
The highly scientific treatment OF
disease by the use OF radium. how
ever, Mr.. Moore says. is successful
only when applied with the greatest
skill.
All cancer cannot be so cured, and
1t requires a skilled surgeon who tho
roughly understands the proper dos
age in order 10 get favorable results"
Mr.. Moore states
AT the present time the United
States produces more radium than all
the rest of the world together.
From the beginning of the indus
try in 1913 TO january. 1921, approx
mately 115 grams of radium element
have been produced in this country.
Probably not more than 40 grams
have been recovered from foreign
ores since the discovery of radium by
Nine. Curie''
Mr.. Moore said that most Of the
domestic production of radium Is
from the mines in Colorado.
