it took Dempsey almost as long to

Coal Saving
At Hospital
Is Planned

Improved mechanical equipment at
the state hospital for the insane will
result both in a saving of money
and labor, in the opinion of Leopold
Pistner, engineer for the Fuel Econ
omy Engineering Company, who is
in jamestown to superintend the
plant additions.
The present equipment at the hos
pital consists of seven boilers of
which two are practically obsolete,
and two others are too small to per-
nit of changes teing made. It is
proposed to equip three boilers with
mechanical stokers, similar to the
stoker tested out at the Agricultural
College, Fargo. II is believed a rs
percent saving in the institution fuel
bill can be made.
Coal now is delivered over concrete
trestles and is handled approximately
seven times before reaching the
boilers. 1t is proposed to install
concrete coal pockets to which coal
will be delivered by bottom dump
coal cars. An automatic conveyer
will carry the coal to crusher.
where it will reduced to . uniform
size, thence elevated by an automa-
tic elevator to an overhead steel con-
crete lined coal bin from which it
will be distributed automatically to
the stokcr hoppers. It is said that
it will be possible to operate the
entire boiler room with two men as
against a force of eight employed
men and ten inmates now used.

attained about all the glory there is
i'm the record books.
Cobb has played more games than
any other player in the history of
the American League. He has gone
through more campaigns-18. He
leads in the number of hits, total
bases and extra base hits.
His lifetime batting average is
.372, far in excess of any player who
has worked 10 years or more in the
majors He has battcd 400 or bet
ter in three seasons, equaling Jesse
Burkctt's record. He has batted
300 or better for II consecutive
seasons.
Wagner has turned the same
trick. Cobb will pass it this year.
He has made 200 or more hits in
each of eight seasons, equaling Will
lie Keelcr's mark.
1t is a rather interesting fact that
Cobb broke the greatest number of
runs record by his own individual
effort. A home run off Pitcher
Charley Robertson of Chicago on
May "a made the 1742d run scored
during his 10 years in the big Show
against 21 for Wagner, who made
The Bismarck tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, N.D.) 1916-current, 1923-06-05

174l runs during that length of
time.
Wagner is the only player close
to Cobb in lifetime averages. Third
m ranking is Larry Lajoic. Cobb
and Wagner have wide margin on
the great Larry. This trio easily
leads the remainder of the field.
George Sisler is the only man who
has threatened Cobbs list of achieve
mcnts since the Georgian started
his super-career. The trouble that
Sisler recently suffered to his eyes
appears to have destroyed any
chance the st. Louis star had of
eqUaling Cobb's feats.
Last year, Sisler in batting safely
in Al consecutive games, topped
Cobb's record in that respect by a
single contest. Cobb was mighty
proud of that performance and hated
to see it broken.
There is little left for Cobb to
conquer in baseball way. When
he has topped the two records still
held by Wagner he will reign su-
preme in all departments.
Cobb should accomplish both feats
by the close of the 1924 campaign.

Two records alone remain between
Cobb and abso lute supremacy in
baseball. Those two records are
held by Honus Wagner.
The great Wagner of other days
still holds the lead in total number
of hits, and also has the edge in
total number of bases.
Wagncr's total number of hits,
313O, cover u years of major league
campaigning. At the opening of
the season Cobb had 1906 hits to
his credit. In order to top Wagner
record, the Detroit leader must make
l65 hits during the 1928 campaign.
Unless illness or injury puts him
out of the running, he will put
Wagners base-hit record into Tho
discard before the close of the pres
ent season.
Wagners total number of bases
for his $3.50 hits amount to 1881

Withdrawal BY
Agents Method J
~/ Is Explained

Since the Ruling of the Insur-
ance Commissioner regarding Power
of Attorney to be filed by agents
Withdrawing lands from Hail Indem-
nifty Tax went into effect the De-
partmcnt has received so many in
quiries relative to the same that
few words of explanation seems nee
essary,' says q statement by S. A.
Olsness, commissioner of Insurance,
who continues:
1T is not necessary for agents to
attach to the withdrawal affidavit
the original Power Of Attorney but
certified copies will do as well, par
ticularly as the Depa rtmental Rul-
ing SO specifies, and it would be very
inconvenient for agents to have orig
inals made out for each section or
tract described on the withdrawal
1T might also be possible for
agents to have originals made out
for each section or tract described
on the withdrawal
ut might also be possible for
agents handling large tracts of land
to file originals of Power of Attor-
ney in the Offices of the Hail Insur-
ance Department and that of the
County Auditor of the County in
which the land is located, then in
clude in the affidavit the information
that such originals of Power of At
torney have been filed in the Office
above mentioned; in that way the
Department would have chance to
look the matter up and accept such
Withdrawals, if correct information
is Observation-Disclosures reject them.
1.-The Department does not wish to
prevent anyone from making with
drawals who desire to do so, blu: it
is felt to be the best policy to have
agents show authority and tnus get
away from any controversies which
might otherwise arise. 1t should be
understood that it is not the object
of the Department to make it more
difficult for those who wish, and
have the right, to withdraw to do
SO, and the purpose of this explana-
ton is to make compliance with the
former Ruling as easy and practical
as possible.
1T should be remembered that a
25c Internal Revenue Stamp must be
attached to the Original Power of
Attorney"
