Park Rapids
Defeated By
Saint Cloud
Junior Legion Team Lost To
Glenwood-Score
9 To 3
WONDERFUL BASEBALL
Visitors Blew-up In Seventh
To Give Saints A
Wide Lead

Sunday, st. Cloud defeated Park
Rapids on the local diamond, in an
interesting game by the score of 0
to 4. The game was featured with
good pitching, timely hitting and
heads-up baseball. For seven in
nings the game continued on an
even keel with Park Rapids lead
ing 4 to 3. A blow-up in the sew
enth gave st. Cloud four runs, and
placed the game on ice.
Park Rapids scored an unearned
counter in the first inning when
Gregorson, first up, received first
base on a donation by Wahlberg,
starting pitcher for st. Cloud. A
costly error by the third baseman,
on an attempted double play ad-
vanced the runners to second and
third. Gregorson scored on fly
ball to center after the catch. st.
Cloud came back in their half of
the first with the tieing run, when
Smith hit to center and was safe
at second on an error on the CEN
ter fielder. He scored from second
on U. ftengeIS MT.
Park Rapids went into the sec.
ond with a hitting streak and add
ed another run. McCollar hit safe
and Cheney, the catcher, went out
on an attempted sacrifice bunt.
Clark followed with a two-base hit
and Nichols came through with a
single to score McCollar. Gregor-
son was out unassisted on a line
drive to the second baseman and
Nichols was caught while at
tempting to get back to the initial
sack. st. Cloud was unable to
score in the second and third in
nings.
Park Rapids added two more in
the third frame, on a walk and
three hits, and their scoring was
ended, for in the next inning Rose
mark took the mound for St Cloud
and held Park Rapids to two hits
during the six following stanzas.
His was a wonderful exhibition
and only once did he get into
trouble.
st. Cloud scored again in the
fourth and again in the sixth. They
went into the seventh with the
score to against them, and with
one man down, Winter hit a two
base hit to left field, and went to
third on an error by the fielder
Smith, the next batter, received
the signal for the squeeze play,
and he hunted the ball to score
Winter. Smith was safe at first,
when the catcher interfered with

Golfer Dam WiN Be
Completed Tomorrow
Have Erected New Sidewalk At
Temporary Bridge On
Pine Street

Work on the steel Golfer dam,
being built for the erection Of the
new bridge over Sank River, Is
progressing nicely and it is expect
ed that the dam will be completed
by Friday evening. Most of the
water between the regular dam
and the Golfer will be pumped out
Saturday.
AS soon as the pit is dry the
large caterpillar crane will be driv-
en- into it and the work Of dismant-
ling the old bridge will be start
ed. This work is dangerous, hence,
the sidewalk which was built over
the dam has been taken away and
pedestrians can no longer cross
there. A new sidewalk has been
erected at the temporary bridge site
on Pine Street, and all traffic Is
now being diverted that way. The
sidewalk is of excellent construc-
ton and has been erected with the
safety Of the public in view.
At the present time some mo-
torists are driving down Pine
Street and crossing the temporary
bridge, instead Of taking the detour
around Birch Street. First Street
will be shut off very soon and mo-
florists will be forced to drive
around the detour. This is being
done to give the children, who live
on the other side of the river, safe
passage without danger Of being
hit by cars.
Work Of dismantling the old
bridge will probably be commenced
the forepart Of next week. The old
bridge was erected in 1890 by A. Y.
Bayne e. Co., at cost of $4,000.
The bonds were issued on June 4,
1890.

Officers Haze Booked An
Excellent Baseball Game
Seventy-Hve Taken
From Freight Train
Man Found at Freeport Badly
Beaten-Claims He Was
Robbed of $3.50

Monday morning local police
officers received word that crime
had been committed at Freeport,
and that it was possible that the
perpetrators were on the Great
Northern freight on its way to
this city. The officers went to the
depot and found approximately
seventy-five men on the train. Each
one was searched and questioned,
task which took from about ten
o'clock to eleven-thirty to complete.
One man attempted to get away
but was stopped quickly, and held
for further examination. Later he
was released. Two other transit
ents, picked up in the park, were
also held for questioning and later
released.
All this activity was caused when
Stuart A. Brown, transient, was
found at Freeport, badly beaten
and in serious physical condition.
Sheriff McIntee Monday expected
to investigate the story told by
Brown, who claims that he was
beaten and robbed by two thugs
on a freight train between st.
Cloud and Minneapolis last Satur-
day. Brown left the train in q
serious condition when 1t stopped
at Freeport. Found by two boys,
the man was watched by author
ties until Sheriff McIntee arrived.
Brown claims he was robbed OF
$3.50 by unknown assailants.
The injured man was brought to
the hospital here where it was be-
lieved today he was showing signs
of recovery.
Sheriff McIntee has found that
the train makes no stops between
Minneapolis and st. Cloud altho the
man asserts he was robbed at
small town during stop. He also
said he was riding in a gondola car
when robbed and the sheriff found
that these gondolas were picked up
at st. Cloud.
Brown. claiming he comes from
Milwaukee, says he was on his way
to the Dakota harvest fields. He
was unable to give a coherent &C
count of the attack because of his
condition.

John Marty Died from Injuries
John Marty, residing near Grey
Eagle, was fatally injured Tuesday
evening at about $3.50 o'clock when
the car he was driving overturned
in the ditch, one mile south OF
Grey Eagle, near the R. H Sitter
farm.
Mr.. Marty, who had been in the
village, was on his way home, when
the accident occurred. Members of
the John Lusky family, tenants on
the Sitter farm, heard the crash
and went to investigate. They
found that the young man had
been crushed on a pile Of rock In
the ditch, and was unconscious
They Immediately called DR..
Laughlin and others to assist them
in his care. The doctor, who was
making call in the country, ar
rived at the scene Of the accident
about forty minutes later. The &C
cident victim was then moved to
the doctors office where he pass
ed away shortly afterwards with
out regaining consciousness.
Coroner Soule, of Browerville
was summoned and an inquest was
held. The skull was badly crushed
on one side and the collar bone
broken in several places. The
young man also suffered internal
injuries and fractured arm.
Marty was driving a Model I
Ford, without top, which did not
afford him much protection. De
ceased was the youngest son OF
Mr.. and Mrs. Zacharias Marty
who reside five miles east of Grey
Eagle. He was born and grew to
manhood in that community and
was % years old. His parents and
six sisters and one brother survive
him. Funeral arrangements had

DOC" Casey Killed
Dominik Casey, Of Sedan, better
known as Doc Casey in this city,
was accidentally killed Saturday
morning, while driving to the home
of a neighbor to help with thresh-
ing.
Mr.. Casey left his home at eight
o'clock that morning with a load
of seed oats, which he wished to
have threshed, and he intended to
remain for the day to help with
the work. While driving along the
road the reach Of his wagon broke
and he climbed underneath to
make repairs. While under the wa
gon, the team apparently drew the
front wheels out from under the
load, which allowed the wagon to
fall onto him, with the result that
his head was crushed.
When the horses arrived home
alone that evening at eight o'clock,
a search was made and Mr.. Casey
was found underneath the wagon,
badly crushed. Owing to the fact
that he intended to remain away
all day, and that he was not on a
highway, the accident was not dis
covered until evening.
doc" Casey was well-known in
this community, having resided on
the Eliza Brown farm, near Broo-
ten, several years ago.

Wedge Family
Nicely Located
Gentlemen Engaged in Insurance
Business With A Wide
Territory In Washington

In a letter received at the Her
aid office this week, we learn that
Mr.. and Mrs. v. G.. Wedge and
daughters, who left this city some
time ago for Walla Walla, Wash
ington, are now nicely located, and
that they enjoy their new home.
Mr.. Wedge is engaged in the insur-
ance business, representing the
Federal Hardware & Implement
Mutuals and the Hardware Mutual
Casualty Company, in a wide ter
ritory. The letter Is as follows:
Sank Centre Herald,
Dear Friends:
will you kindly change the mail
ing address of my Herald" to 703
Park St., Walla Walla, Wash.
We had quite time finding a
house to suit our requirements in
that part of town convenient to
High School and College but by
waiting we were fortunate enough
to find six room bungalow just
five blocks from High School and
ten short blocks from college and
are now quite comfortably settled.
We enjoyed the trip out here.
spending a little time in the Black
Hills and Yellowstone Park. This
was prior to the hot weather and
in Yellowstone Park it was real
ly cold. The pass in the Big Horn
mountains, elevation 1866 feet, was
still muddy from the heavy snow
and snow drifts were still in evil
dence not over ten feet from the
road. We were told that only two
weeks before, the drifts had been
eight and ten feet deep through
there. In the Black Hills we visit
ed the "Stratosphere Bowl and
saw the preparations being made
for the flight that didn't take place
as well as viewing the Rushmore
Memorial and driving through the
Needles pass. In the Yellowstone
"Old Faithful did her stuff for US
exactly on the SO minute schedule
under which it was operating at
the time.
After leaving the Park we drove
through some irrigated sections OF
Wyoming and Idaho where crops
were the best I have ever seen. 1t
looked to me as if there was more
Alfalfa to the acre on some of that
ground than you would see on a
ten acre plot ordinarily. That par
ticular section near Ten Sleep,
Wyoming, made a real killing on
hay last year, I was told, as thou
sands of car loads were shipped out
to points in the United States and
Canada. AS we came West we
could see evidences Of that indus
try. We bought the most wonder
full "Bings" you ever saw for as lit
tie as six cents pound.
In Walla Walla canning plants
are running full blast. the pea sea-
SON having just closed and the to-
mato season just starting. MOTTO
ed in the paper the other day that
canneries in this section had put
up approximately one million cases
of peas.
I have my work well under way
now and while I have a big terri
tory to cover and lots to do I am
being well received and am sure I
am going to like it here
Greetings to all of our old
friends.
Sincerely yours,
Ven G. Wedge.

How long do union officials ex- pect to tie up the A. J without calling a strike vote? Union mem bers are asking show long. Every thinking man is asking himself and others how can nineteen men poll strike vote that keeps nine hundred from employment.
 Did not union members ask thai a strike vote be ballotted? Have not the injured bystanders asked for such a poll? Even prominent Federal officials have plead fol such vote.
 How can a miner who has the interest of the laboring people at heart determine. bis position until such vote is taken? More than fifteen days have gone by and we appear no closer to the Knowledge of how many men wish to continue the strike than we were the night when this strike was called.
