new FORM OF
INSURANCE
\ SOLD BY $780,
Designated as Passengers
Coupon Insurance For
Travellers Over Lines

The Minneapolis, St. Paul & Sault
Ste. Marie ("Soo Line") announce
that beginning August LIST they in
augurated the sale of new form
Of travel accident insurance to pass
enkers purchasing tickets over their
lines. The new form-which is de-
signated as passengers coupon acci-
dent insurance, and which is de-
vice patented by George E. Dickson,
has many new and desirable features,
chief of which might be said to be
the fact that it is available for wo-
men the same as for men. A woman
passenger is not any more liable to
accidents that a man; she pays the
same railroad fare, and under this
new device her insurance protection
Is ut the same rate.
A feature of the device is that the
insurance is sold to cover short or
long trips and the insurance premium
is not so much per day, but is fixed
Mt an amount equal to one per cent
of the cost of the railroad ticket.
Thus, a passenger purchasing a tic
ket for $1.O0 or less, can have the in
surance protection while on railroad
property about stations or on trains
iHcident to the trip for one cent ad-
ditional. An excursion trip to the
coast, costing $50 for the round trip,
would carry with it the insurance for
an additional sc cents, good until the
ticket is used and the trip complet-
ed. Trips to the south or other Sec
tions are covered similarly. The in
surance is suspended if the passen-
ger takes a. stop-over and automa-
tically goes into force again when
the journey is resumed.
New features of the device are
that the insurance covers women, as
stated. and covers every accident on
railroad property about stations or |
on trains incident to the trip called
for by the railroad ticket. Injuries,
fatal or otherwise, inflicted by train
robbers or caused by malicious
wrecking of the train, are also COW
cred.
This accident insurance device is
expected to be adopted generally by
It is sold at all ticket Of
fices Of the railroads which have
adopted it. The principal indemnity
is $4,000 for loss of life, with suit
able indemnities for major injuries,
and up to $26 per week for loss of
time for total disability, for both
men and women.
The device has simplicity that is
interesting. A master blanket poll
icy, issued by the United States Eide
lily and Guaranty Company, is issued
to the railroad company for the ben
eft Of all the passengers who de-
sire the insurance when they pur-
chase tickets. The passenger pays one
cent additional for each dollar or
fraction of his fare and receives
coupon attached to or identified with
his railroad ticket, emitting him to
the benefit of the master blanket
policy. Fac-Simile copies of the pol
icy and other informative matter
concerning the device are distributed
by the ticket agents at all stations.

Mays, Hero Of FL Series,
About to Leave Big Show
BY NEA Service

by NEA Service
New York, Aug. Carl Mays,
pitching hero of the 1921 world SER
les, is almost at the end of his career
as big Lacquer.
A hero two years ago and bench
warmer today, lucky to start a
game!
That sums up the story of Carl
Mays.
Mays fate simply proves that base
ball is mighty tickle playmate.
Last year the Yankees asked for
waivers on Mays. 1t was intended to
send him to the Pacific Coast League
in a deal for Pitcher Jake May. All
the major league clubs waived ex-
cept the Cincinnati Reds.
Failure Of the Reds to waive,
alone prevented Mays from being
shunted to the minors last winter.
That is almost certain to be his
fate before the opening Of next sea-
son.
This year finishes Mays thrcc-year
contract calling for $4,000 year.
Right now Carl is getting his money
for acting as bench warmer and or.
casional relief pitcher.
During the recent series with
Cleveland Manager Higgins, be.
cause of injuries to several members
of his pitching staff, was forced to
start Mays. That game just about

Fargo, Aug. 4.-Johnny knauf,
Moorhead's hard hitting welter-
weight, put his signature on the con-
tract calling for an eight round en-
gagement at Wahpeton on Aug. 10
with Battling Krause, the Hazen

Promoter Jack Hurley announced
that Knauf's contract stipulates that
the weight shall be 145 pounds at 8
p. n., on the day of the fight, and
that the Moorhead battler will re-
ceive 5000 for his services. Knauf
refused to sign until assured that
he shall have an equal say in the
selection of the referee.

one of the greatest pitchers I have
ever seen and the strange part of
it, he was q finished big Lacquer
when he Joined my club.
"When a pitcher comes to Won
direct from some college, no mat
ter how much natural ability he
may have, you figure he will need
at least years experience to pol
lsh him up. He must learn to
watch the runners. Then he must
change his style to suit various
situations. He must learn his bat
ters, also a score of other things.
:, "Donahue seemed to know all
those things when he joined the
Reds. He had the ability and poise
OF a big Lacquer. He knew how
from the very start" 81.

No! Well that is just what hap

Kinks o. the Links

Where did Bobby Jones finish in
the national open last year and what
was his score?
Jones finished in tie for second
place last year 1t Skokie with a
score of 289. The veteran pro, John
Black, shared the position with the
youthful amateur. >Sarazen won
with a score Of 28S, 30 that Jones
and Black were just a stroke remov-
ed from the title in 1922.
Smiths caddie, on all the green's
in match with Jones, indicated the
line of Smiths puts with club and
held the club in position while Smith
putted. The club held by Smiths
caddie did not touch the ground but
unquestionably was of great aid to
Smith in his putting. Was Smith
within his rights in having his cad
die indicate the line Of putt?
Smith was in error and should suf'-
fer . two-stroke penalty for each

$4,000 FIRE
LOSS AT .MIN0T'

Minot, n. D.. Aug. 1.-Two fires be-
tween 10 p. m. and midnight last
night which destroyed the car sheds
of the Great Northern railway and
otherwise destroyed the basement
of the Epstein block caused loss
that will approximate $4,000, it
was declared today. The major por-
ton of the loss was sustained by the
railway company. Twelve empty
freight cars and three cabooses which
were in the sheds, burned.
Officials Of the road and the local
hre department lwere unable to state
this morning the probable cause Of
the blaze which spread with great

Pulling Plays
THE PLAY

TIE I,LAl
Here is a new play involving the
coacher.
With a runner on first, the bats
man hits to the third baseman, who
fumbles the ball, and, seeing he has
no chance to make play at second,
hurres his throw to get the man at
first. The throw is bad and bounds
off the first baseman's glove.
The coacher gets in front of the
ball so that he defects it into the
home teams dugout Under the rules
a thrown ball that goes into the dug
out entities everybody to advance
two bases.
The umpire thought the coacher
Intentionally interfered with the
thrown ball, purposely getting in the
way of it, so that it might be defect
ed, throwing off the players who
were backing up, as we'll as the field
cr making the play.
What about such happening?
THE INTERPRETATION
Since the umpire thought the
coacher Intentionally interfered with
the throw, the runners, under the
rules, were compelled to stop ut the
base last touched by them.
Instead of permitting the runner
on first to 60 to third and the bat
ter to second, since the overthrow
went into the dugout, which ordi-
narily entities all runners to adj
vance two bases, the runner on first
should be held at second and the bat
ter at first.
The coacher, for his offense, is pen
allied by being removed from the
playing field.tl IS b9@

New York, Aug. 4.-When an ir-
resistible force meets an irresistible
force, what is going to happeny /
That is the interesting problem
that probably will be settled soon,
when Jack Dempsey, worlds heavy
weight champion, meets Luis Firpo,
who, in the short space of one year,
has fought himself into the front
rank of the contenders for Jacks
title.
A rushing attack that brushes
everything in it's way; terrific
punching ability that batters down
everything that opposes it; a nat
ural fighting instinct that takes the
place of gymnasium taught skill; a
JOY in combat and logged determi-
nation that has but one object, the
bringing down of the luckless NOR
tai tossed into the same ring with
them - those are the outstanding
characteristics of the two fighters
whom fate has seen fit to make con-
temporaries.
Dempsey More Skillful.
Dempsey has the more skill. In his
own awkward way he is the better
boxer of the two. He is also a
shade faster in the ring.
His more extensive experience in
the ring, the confidence that goes
with the knowledge that he is the
worlds champion, all combine to give
him an advantage that would be hard
