Freehold High Loses

The Freehold high school baseball
nine went to Toms River Friday and
lost 4 to decision to the Toms River
varsity nine.
Altho defeated, it was not the fault Of
Freddie Russell who did the twirling
for the Freeholders, as Russell allowed
but five safe bingles and famed as
many men.
Erratic fielding at critical stages and
inability to hit the offerings Of Karpinner
proved to be the cause of Freehold's
defeat.
Karpinner, whom Freehold defeated
by IL to score five weeks ago and who
hurled a no-hit no-run game against
Lakewood last week, managed to hold
the county seaters to two hits. Oae of
these was long double to center by
Cherin in the initial frame while the
other safety was made off the bat and
framed in the seventh.
The Ocean county nine scored one
run in each of the third and fifth
frames and added two runs in the
sixth.
The defensive playing of Ellis, Rus
sci and R. Macllvaine was noticeable.
The team played seven innings by
agr cement.

#. Smelling
and Country Around

Mr.. w. Besler, President of the Gen.
trail Railroad Of New Jersey, has Wis
tied the section around Fort Smelling,
Mimi, and has sent us the following
which will be read with great interest
by our readers, many of whom have
relatives who settled in illinois, Wiscon-
sin and Minnesota in the early pioneer
days. Mr.. Besler writes:
4 was born in Illinois, and am familiar
with all of the surroundings Of Fort
Smelling, which you have so well de-
scribed. and with some of the historical
data covering the Indian Massacres and
the hanging of forty Indians at Mankato.
There are in the museum Section of
the Capitol at st. Paul a considerable
collection having to do with these his
torical events, including scalps and
the handouts which were worn by the
Indians, when they were hanged.
The days OF Mississippi River steam
boating have long since passed. An oc-
casional excursion steamer finds its
way up the riy er as far as Dubuke, and
local excursion steamers ply about st.
Paul and on Lake Pepin.
Thecutting down of the pine forests
which held the Winter SHOWS, and as
they gradually mel ed during the Spring
and into the early Summer, Furnished
water for the River, put an end to the
water supply, while the ploughed lands
furn shed the sediment and soil for the
Spring freshets which filled the River
with sandbars and made navigation
next to impossible.
What little River navigation remains
on the great Mississippi is from st.
Louis south, and is in the form of barg-
es. Passenger service has long since
The account Of the doings around
Fort Smelling was taken from the old
Orderly Book at the Fort, which, we
learn from another, is now in
possession Of the museum at st. Paul
We are certainly pleased that this valu-
able historical record has been taken
care of.
An effort is to made this Summer to
keep up the flow of water over the
falls by driving artesion wells in the
bed of the river above the falls. The
falls are about 80 feet high and forty,
feet wide.

The county-seaters tied the score

Evanson's long drive in the deep CEN
ter field. Previously Freehold had
score d two runs in the third and a

Chattle's big inning was the third
when timely hitting by Tonaine,
Schlenger, Fisher and Kemp gave
them three runs.
Bergen and Tomaine did the twirl-

team respectively. Bergen allowed
nine hits while eight scattered safe

Rue County Detective

Prosecutor John J. Quinn announce
ed the appointment of Jacob B. Rue of
Red Bank, as member of the prosecu-
tors staff of detectives. Rue, who
served on the county staff for five
and half years, resigne about is
months ago because of i'll health.
In announcing the appointment
Prosecutor Quinn said he considered
Rue one Of the best detectives in the
state "Rue gave excellent service to
the county,n said Prosecutor Quinn
HE is one of the best qualified de-
tectives in the state and now able
to return to duty after some 8 months
absence due to sickness"
It is expected that two more de-
tectives will be appointed following
the taking of civil service examina-
ton, which will be ann iunced short
ly.
In political circles there is consid-
cradle interest attached to the re-
port that the Italian Democrat club
of Long Branch is seeking the APP
pointment of America Saco, an at
tache of the district court at Long
Branch. The ann "uncment Of Pros
ecutor Quinn two weeks ago that APP
poin5ment Of detectives would shortly
be a matter of civil service quail
fication was considered as divorcing
the prosecutors Office from politics in
the naming of appointees to the pros
ecntor's staff. Consequently the Sac
60 boom Is considered to be Of no
import
Philip Erfiardt, sergeant alarms
of the Asbury Park district court, is
likely to compete in the examina-
tions and political observers point
out that the same significance would
be attached to boom for Erhardt
or Arthur B. Grant another court
atuache, as there is to the Sacco
boom.
The appointment of Rue brings the
prosecutors staff Of detectives to
four. Besides Rue, they are Johu NJ.
Smith of Freehold, chief detective;
Charles o. Davenport of Asbury
Park, and Leonard j. Shields Of Free
hold.

Steps Taken to Effect
Better School Lighting

New York.-The National Commit
tee for the Prevention of Blindness,
seeking the protection of school chill
dren from eye-strain, is undertaking
to acquaint every schoolteacher in the
United States with the principles Of
correct lighting. To this end it will
send to the superintendent of schools
in every state, county and city having
a school population of 25IOOO or more
a communication based on the code
of lighting school buildings prepared
by experts, and approved as the
American standard.

British CROSSWORD
Now Task for Savants

Oxford, England.-The cross
word puzzle craze reached its
zenith last month and Is now on
the wane, according to Oxford
Librarians. In Oxford, as else
where, 1t more than doubled the
sales of dictionaries, and the de-
mands made upon reference IL
braries were so great that one
librarian threatened to shut up
shop altogether.
The explanation given for the
failure of popular interest Is
that the later puzzles have be-
come so difficult, through the in
creased experience of their Gre
ators, that no ordinary mortal
can conveniently solve them.
Men who during the war had
little difficulty in declphering the
secret and confidential codes of
both the enemy and the allies
have organized pools Of intel
leet" and settled down seriously
to the solution Of all possible
cross-words.
