“OLD BOYS” ARE |BIG DRAINAGE IN FINE FETTLE| PLAN HATCHING Government and State to Work Together In Reclaiming Red Lake Swamps. Some Hard Practicing Being In- dulged in For Great “Official” Game. Washington, July 16.—The reclamation service has some good things in store for Minne- sota. Itis going to adopt the idea of the Steenerson bill, which seeks to employ money derived from the sale of government lands in Minnesota to drain swamp lands owned by the state. It is desirable, however, that whatever is undertaken in this way shall be done systematically. The government has provided for a topographical survey of the Red Lake reservation and the engineers are already on the ground preparing for that work. Fifteen thousand dollars have been appropriated by congress for this survey with a view to draining the reservation lands, It is apparent, however, that the work of draining the reserva- tion cannot be as successfully accomplished if it is confined to the reservation alone as it would be if it were carried out as a part of a general scheme for the drainage of all lands capable of being effectually drained in that Fred W. Rhoda, clerk of court, is putting up a nice game for the county team. Kred has to his credit some fine work m days gone by whea he was a member of the fast aggregation. He is speedy on the bases, has a good batting eye, and there is no “glass’ in his arm. John Bailey will, in all proba- bility, play first base for the county team. John is lengthy and has a tenacious grip, which will make it a difficult matter for the ball to get by him. It is more tnan likely that Judge Spooner will pitch a few innings for the county. Not much is known relative to the past record of the judge, along baseball lines. However, it is believed that he has an experi enced “wing” and that he con- templates doing things to the city representatives.

Wonderland has made a great hit and is drawing crowds that sometimes number as high as 25,000. The park has a score of amusement features in buildings and as many more outdoor at- tractiors, such as the scenic rail- way, shooting the chutes, air- ship swing, etc. 1n addition there is a program of free outdoor shows, which in- cludes aerial and acrobatic acts, bicycle sensations, fireworks, etc. A feature of the park is a bril- liant electrical illumination, in which 50,000 incandescent and arclights are being used. Several special features are booked for Wonderland this summer of an especially interesting character. The Duss band is one of them, and Kunaubenshue and his air ship is another. The baseball germ appears to be working over-time in this im- mediate vicinity, and there threatens to be an epidemic of “fan fever,” Following in the wake of the city-county game, comes a chal- lenge to the winners from the office force of the Crookston Lumber company. The retail clerks are getting into trim, as are also the printers of the town And now comes Sam Marin with adefito the bartenders of the city, wherein he challenges the ‘‘barkeeps’ to a game with the team in the south end of Bemidji township, over around Luke Mar- quette. Sam wants the game to be played next Saturday afterncon, and the Pioneer is authorized to negotiate with the challenged parties for the game. It now behooves the Woodmen and K. P.’s to get togetuer, when there will still be room for some other organizations to tackle the great American game. EXCITES MUCH INTEREST.

The “genuine English settles” often offered in shops are viewed with dis- cretion by travelers who have seen such belongings in old English farm- houses. On their native heath they are of solid oak, fully five feet high and running quite across the great kitch- ens. They are black with time and are apt to be well seasoned with ham fat. The duty of the settle is fourfold. It is the family seat, and, as the bench part can be raised, In the drawers be- neath are kept the family rags for weaving. Above the seat is the family hat rack. The upright is double, and in the recess thus formed the family bacon is hung, doers opening from be- hind into this cupboard.
