B.|’ AFUL SLAWTER | OF INNOCENTS Woodenmen Defeat Nights of Pityus by a Score of 34 to 0. The Game It Were a Shame To Tell The Knights Oh Such Bright And Shining Lights! The Ball They Never Saw at All At All The Woodenmen Got There Good and Then Some More The Score "T'was Thirty-four, Maybe More! The Woodmen played ball at the fair grounds yesterday after- noon and during some 17 innings made 84 runs. Two or three hundred people cast dull care away and assembled to see the Woodmen do it, When the re- quired number of innings had dragged their weary round, the band played “The Dead March from Saul,”’ and the people quiet- ly dispersed to their homes. Itis alleged that nine uncer- tain nice young fellows got away sadder and wiser but this can- not be corroborated as none of- the nine could be found this morning. The following fines were levied by Grand Chief Assessor Spoon- er and collected promptly by his henchmen: Twenty-five cents each: Emil Schneider for using good taste, Messrs. Bright, Graham, Car- son, Snyder, Henrionette for un- due levity and high kicking, Prof. J. J. Regan ior missing so many good opportunities, Graham M. Torraznce for failing to bring his wife, Earl Barker for throw ing the game, Matt Bright for looking lonesome, R. W. Reed for bringing that International Falls | smile with him, Fred Rhoda for not issuing a marriage license to John Gibbons before the game began, Messrs. Campbell, Stew- art and Page for thinking they can play better ball than Earnest} Attempt Barker, and some forty odd other because the library needed the money. The total receipts of the game were $78.35 of which $23.75 was fines. THE FALL OF PORT ARTHUR at Minnesota State Fair. Lovers of sensational, startling realistic “‘effects’ in their amuse- ments will have no cause to com- plain of the lack of these features in the representation iy the naval battle and bombardment ef Port Arthur, as illustrated in the big Pain pyrotechnic spectacle of of that name,which will .be seen each evening at the Minnesota State fair this year. Nearly four hundred people participate in these stirring scenes of mimic warfare. In the battlea number of huge Japanese and Russian warships will be shown in violent aclion, during which a big. Rus- sian man-of-war is blowh up and sunk by a Japanese torpedo boat. In the bombardment of the city land Sun Hill Fort there is a | desperate crosstire between the land and naval forces on both sides; bridges and fortifications are blown up, and buildings are shattered by exploding mines and real shells. During this scene the Imperial Japa- nese Guards, direct from Tokio, probably the best drilled and foremost exponents of ' high-wall scaling in the land of the Mikado, will add a touch of realism to the scene by an exhibition of their ‘marvelous exploits in this line.
