Could Work Both Ways.

A tall, gaunt-looking person recently
entered an hotel in London and applied
for room. The price he was willing
to pay entitled him to lodgings on the
top floor Of the house. Among his be-
longings the proprietor noticed a coil
of rope. Upon being asked what the
rope was for, the parson replied ::
That's fire-escape; always carry one
with me noN in case of Zeppelin raid
or fire. which I understand, often oc-
cur here, and then 1 am able to let
myself down from the window without
troubling anyone" yes" replied the
landlord, stroking his chin reflectively !;
"seems like pretty good idea, but
guests with flre-escapes Fay in advance
at this hotel during the war"

The Search for Truth.

Truth indeed came once into the
world with her divine Master, and it
was a perfect shape most glorious to
look on; but when he ascendad, and
his apostles after him were laid asleep,
then straight ar.se a wicked race of
deceivers, who, as that story goes of
the Egyptian Typhon with his con-
spirators, how they deal with the good
Osiris, took the virgin Truth, hewed
her lovely form into thousand pieces
and scattered them to the four winds.
From that time ever since, the sad
friends of Truth, such as burst appear,
initiating the careful search that Isis
made for the mangIed body of Osiris,
went up and down gathering I'D limb
by limb still as they could find them.
We have not yet found them all lords
and commons, nor ever shall do, till
her Masters second coming-Josn

BASKETBALL PRACTICE BEGUN

Ames. The boys will put in three hard
weeks Of training in preparation for
the opening district game with Sauk

& The football team was disbanded
yesterday. It had been planned to
play one or two games more, as Alex

latter part Of this week, also st.
Paul Central, champions Of the twin
cities, but the local boys felt that they
will have a good chance to cop the
district basketball title again this year
and they were not keen about spelling
this chance by playing more football
and thus risking injuries to some Of
the boys which might keep them opt of

FOOTBALL GAME
... ENDS IN 6-6 TIE
LITTLE FAIIS-TARIBAULT GAME
ONE OF BEST BATTLES ON
LOCAL GRIDIRON


The football game at the local fair
grounds Thursday afternoon Of last
week between the Little Falls and
Faribault high school teams ended in
a tie, 6 and 6, and was pronounced one
of the best games played on the local
gridiron in. years. A large crowd OF
paving celebration visitors attended
the game, in spite Of the chilly weather
that prevailed.
Faribault was the first to make a
touchdown. They made their six
points within five minutes after the
game started on two runs of twenty
and thirty yards. Goal was missed.
In the same quarter Little Falls scored
on a series of line plunges, Lasky 60
ing over for the touchdown. Brown
missed goal, at least Referee Adams of
St. Cloud said he did. From then on
both teams played nip and tuck, al
though Little Falls had the edge on the
visitors. In the the last quarter Little
Falls worked the ball to- within yard
Of the goal but the Faribault line held
and the chance to score was lost.
The Faribault eleven is anxious to
secure game with Little Falls for
Thanksgiving Day and if the weather
is favorable it may be scheduled.

TRAIN HITS AUTO.
IMAM IS KILLED
ACCIDENT OCCURRED NEAR LIN
COLIN YESTERDAY VICTIM
FROM ST. PAUL

M. L. Stearns, travelling salesman
for the Steamships Company of St.
Paul, was instantly killed yesterday
noon at Lincoln when the car in which
he was travelling was struck by Train
No. Ii, west bound.
The accident occurred on the cross
ing just south Of Lincoln. The motor
ist was travelling south and presumably
he did not see the approaching train
on account of the hill alongside of the
| road near the tracks, which obstructs
the view.
The engine must have struck the
car squarely as the car was completely
demolished and parts widely scattered,
so much, in fact, that it did not ap-
pear at first glance as though car
had figured in the accident. The
body was thrown a long distance and
numerous bones were broken and the
body otherwise disfgured. The man
appeared to be 25 to 26 years old.
Sheriff Felix and Coroner O. J..
Brown were called and they went up
there Immediately to investigate the
accident. The coroner pronounced
death accidental.
Baggage carried by the victim indi-
Gated that he was connected with
Steamships Company, 372 Jackson
street, st. Paul. Considerable wearing
apparel, evidently samples, were found
scattered along the tracks.
The body was brought to Little Falls
and placed in the Harting morgue.
Sheriff Felix got in, touch with the
company and informed them of the ac-
cident and according to word received
just before press time, members of the
family started out for Little Falls
from St. Paul late yesterday after
noon, by automobile, to take care of
the remains.
