time on the annual championship
series which will be staged this
year, as in the past three seasons,
on the Union Station diamond.

years.

To those who are not IA
miIiar with the annual pro-
ceedings, the championships
are carried on every year TO

Yesterday the Pullman boys
were supposed to play Southern
Railway in a Terminal League
encounter. Instead they post
poned the game until a later date
and played the New York Pull
man nine at New York and won
by the one-sided score of 18 to O.
The Gotham Pullmans are lead
ers of the Industrial League there.
Although yesterdays score does
not indicate they're leaders of
much anything, the fact remains
that they are the supposed best
in their league and our local Pull
man boys beat them.
All Of which is indication
that the Terminal League
here has a real team i'm its
midst and one that is once
more the favOrite to win the
league title for the second
time i'm as many years, not to
mention the annual city
championship.
Yesterdays game was just one
of series which the Pullmans
have been scheduling with out-of-
town Pullman teams. Only Two
weeks ago the Philadelphia Pull
mans were entertained here and
defeated by the terrible score Of
% to 2. A game with the Chicago
Pullman nine is under arrange
ment now and will be played in
the very near future.
Babe Clapper hurled for the
locals yesterday and breezed in
as his mates had a merry time
at bat and on the bases. Booker,
shortstop, led in the hitting with
two triples.
Mel Anderson, of the Tile Set
ters, is probably the smallest and
quietest pitcher in unlimited
ranks on the sandlots. Yet he
throws them plateward and wins
games.
Anderson has quietly done his
share to help the Tile Settlers in
their winning march to the In.
dustrial League pennant. Game
after game he has pitched, in his
turn, and quietly has he scored in
earnest effort.
Yesterday, small and quiet
again, he hurled for the Tile
Settlers against Hibbs & Co.
Up against Walter DickhOut,
who was in fine fettle, he en-

ninth. ,
The score was 20, 3-3 and A.
until the ninth when the Tile
Settlers jumped upon Dickhout
and registered six times for 9
hard-earned victory. The lone

of the ninth didn't hurt Ander

ferred, he made sudden dash for
liberty and got away.
Sheriff L. j. Kise of Redwood
county went in immediate pursuit,
aided by .bloodhounds, who tracked
the fugitive to Morton, Mimi, where
he was recaptured. The next day
Judge Emerson sentenced him to an
indeterminate term of not more than
20 years at the state prison at Still

1T was brought out that Steele
had served term in the Pennsylva-
MIA state prison in 1919 on a similar
charge, and that he had also been
convicted on another count, but de-
tails of the latter case were not
brought out in the Fergus Falls
hearing.
Steele is SO years old and claims
his home is in Sunbury, Pa. He was
married once, but his wife is dead.
He had no children.
j. j. Sullivan, warden at the state
prison in Saltwater, said that Steele
wrote letter to Sacramento but he

its contents.

FORMER PRISONER
CONFESSES MURDER
John Steele, Sentenced to State
Prison from Here, COnfesses
Murder in Letter

Citizens of the community will
well remember a convict by the NAME
of John Steele, who made an unsuc-
cessfal Jail break at Redwood Falls
last year. He was recaptured by
Sheriff Kise after few hours of
liberty. Serving in Saltwater, Steele
confessed to the murder of Cali
fornia woman. The account as APP
peared in the Minneapolis Journal
follows:
A startling murder confession by
Convict John Steele, serving a 20
year prison term at Saltwater for
forgery, in which he said he killed a
young woman in California two years
ago, was revealed today.
The aiIeaeu confession was made
in a letter steele wrote to Neil Nc
Allister, district attorney at Sacra-
mento, CallI., In which he declared ne
wanted to make a clean breast or the
crime
Il would rather be hanged than
worried to DEATH" he wrote.
News of his letter was brought to
Minneapolis in Associated Press Dis
patches, which declared Steele wrote
that he had purchased an automobile
in Fresno, Calf, and had started for
Los Angeles with a woman friend.
He killed the woman on the way, ac-
cording to the letter.
Records at Saltwater prison show
l.. &c
for which he was sentenced in No
vember, 1928, at Redwood Falls, af-
ter being recaptured following jail
break. He had been convicted previ-
ously in Pennsylvania and had served
time there, and in his letter he adj
mitted he was wanted in California
for the theft of an automobile.
"He described the murder briefly
in his letter, as follows:
"a murder took place between
Bakersfield and Hollywood, and the
body of the murdered woman l plac-
ed at lonely place just seven blocks
from Hollywood.
eff the woman is found you will
find that her body is wrapped in
fashionable clothing. The right pock-
ct of her silk coat will contain small
coin purse of brocaded satin, and on
the inside will be silver monogram
with letter d and a photograph of
a woman about 60 or IS years of
age"
HE said the Staying occurred Dec.
3, 1927, slightly more than two years
ago.
His arrest in Minnesota was at
Sanborn, Mimi, on Oct. 20, 1928, af-
ter he had cashed a worthless check
for $5O.95 at gasoline filling station
there operated by P. j. Pint. The
check was signed by "Joe Frank" and
was drawn on the State Bank of Nor
ton.
HE was locked in the county Jail
at Redwood Falls. On November IL
he was brought before District Judge
Alebrt H. Emerson of Marshall and
pleaded guilty to charge of forgery
in the second degree. He was also
charged with a prior. conviction in
York county, Pennsylvania. The court
postponed sentence to November 13
On the night of November II, Steele
began a campaign of trouble-makine

The days dragged their weary lengths along for
Korak, when he began to recover. During his ILL
ness, the apes had hunted close by that they might
protect him. The great-hearted Akut brought Juicy
fruits which helped to slake Koraks thirst and
allay his fever. Little by little his powerful con-
sttution overcame the effects of the spear thrusts
the wounds healed, his strength returned and one
day he made his way unaided to the ground
