IN POOR GAME = Contest Yesterday Afternoon Ended With Score Stand- ing 12 to 5. W sl ‘Wadena yesterday afterngon defeated Bemidji in a poor ex- hibition of base ball at the local grounds and at the end of the ninth iuning the score stood 12 to 5 in favor of the aggregation from down the line, which was made up of players from Little Falls, Brainerd, St Cloud and Both teams played poor ball and errors were fre- quent, That Bemidji did not put up a good game is due largely to the fact that only about one-haif of the regular team played, several new men being placed in the lineup. The batteries were Morris and Mgyers for Wadena and LeGore, Riddell, Hazen and Smith for Bemidji. Wadena seeured 14 hits and Bemidji eight. Morris struck out seven men, LeGore one and Hazen four. A home run by Myers was a feature of the game. DEAD AND DOWN WILL BE SOLD | Fourteen Million Feet of Pine in Red Lake Reserve to Be Disposed of.

Mrs. Rhoda called a neighbor, who advised her that there was no danger, and the fire was started again. The neighbor left the house but was in a moment called back by another man who discovered the burning woman, and together they ex- tinguished the flames and laid her upon a bed, where she ex- pired seven minutes after the fire was started. | Mrs. Rhoda was born at Elk-| hart, Ind., Dec. 6, 1878, and was the only daughter of Mr, and!
