BAGLEY WINS SUNDAY GAME Trounces Clearbrook Boys to Tune of Ten to Three. Clearbrook, Minn., ;V[ay 22.— (Daily Pioneer Special Service.)— Bagley won from Clearbrook in an interesting baseball game here Sun- day afternoon by a score of 10 to 3. Bagley displayed fine team work as a result of systematic training, which the Clearbrook boys were unable to overcome. The batteries were, Bag- ley: York, pitcher and V. E. Farr, catcher; Clearbrook, Hjolman Lann and Theodore Johnson, pitchers and Olaf Grotte, catcher. Next Sunday, May 28, a return game will be play- ed by the Gonvick team on the Clear- brook grounds. A real game is ex- Dected as both teams are becoming good. 8 Bagley Praises Bemidji. In a fast and exciting game the high school defeated Bemidji high to the tune of 7 to 3. Bemidji played a fast game, but it was plainly seen that Bagley played superior ball, although greatly outclassed in size. The feature of the game was pulled off in the fourth inning by “Red” Johnson who secured a bat from the Bemidji bat sack, and gave it a bath in the lake, it had been used up to that time by the Bemidji boys and was 4 inches in thickness and about 4 feet long. The local boys played a good game and were always there with the stick, when needed, secur- ing 9 safe swats. “Priggie” Hanson pitched the entire game and was given excellent support, allowing but 5 safe blows.—Bagley Herald.

Bozeman, Mont., May 22.—Albert Heiser, a young shipping clerk of New York, who thought to save money by beating his way from Seattle, where he had been visiting an uncle, was knocked unconscious by rocks in the hands of three tramps he had fallen in with, and he would have been weighted with stones and his body hurled into the Madison river but for A. Herzog, Northern Pacific section foreman. Herzog, who by strange chance hap- pened to be sleeping in the brush, heard the tramps talking, debating whether to place the unconscious form of Heiser upon the raflroad track or welght it with stones and drop it into the river. Two were for drowning the victim and they were dragging Heis- er's form to the river bank when Her- zog rushed to the rescue. He was set upon and severely cut, but his yells attracted attention and the tramps fled. Later a posse captured three men &nd they were taken to Logan. Officers were rushed from Bozeman to prevent a threatened lynching and they ar- rived just as a rope had been procured. STRIKE ON MISSOURI PACIFIC Men Who Walked Out Demand Dis- charge of Nonunion Machinist.

PLAYERS LIKE TO CHANGE JOBS Monotony of Daily Grind Causes Base- ball Stars to Shift Around. By TOMMY CLARK. Baseball players are queer individ- uals. Mighty few of them are satls- fied with their positions. The pitchers would be catchers, and catchers would be pitchers. The outfielders would like to cease chasing flies and stop ground- ers, The inficlders would like to wan- der to the outfleld and chase the elusive fly. Nearly every player has an am- bition to play some other position than the one in which he has made his repu- tation. Doing a specialty becomes tiresome to the average ball tosser, and he imagines the other fellow's work is easier than his own until he tries it. For instance, Charley Dooin, the manager of the Phillies, when he is not warming up pitchers likes to gob- | ble up grounders in the infield. Sher- 1 wood Magee of the same team has to be chased away from first base when| serious practice begins. Ed Walsh of | the White Sox would sooner be a first | baseman or an outfielder than do slab :duty. Ty Cobb would like nothing | better than to go into the box and | twirl in a regular game. During the| | off senson Tyrus does the pitching for | |2 semipro. team in Augusta, Ga., his| | home town. Most any afternoon dur-| ing the regular season Cobb can be | seen pitching to the batters. Maybe you, have watehed Joe Tinker. | the Cubs' great shortstop, trying to solve the mysteries of pitching during practice. Frank Schulte is usually his catcher. Stanage, the Detroit back- stop, has to be driven back of the bat. He would sooner play in the infleld than be called the Tigers’ star catcher. “Three Fingered” Brown of the Cubs, who seems to be all in as a pitcher, thinks he would make good as an in- fielder. Before he became a twirler he played in the infield, so the position is not new to him. . It’s the monotony of doing the same | thing day after day that wears_on the players, and it s’ real "fun™for: tlieny’ to shift to some other position even for a few minutes. This habit has resulted in some play- ers turning out to be stars in positions other than the ones to which they have been assigned by their managers, Ted Easterly of Cleveland, who is good enough to catch for any team, | has given up backstop work and is now playing right fleld for the Naps. Jack Flynn, who did most of the first base playing for Pittsburg last season, is now a catcher. Flynn was a first class backstop while with Georgetown. J. 1. Taylor, president of the Boston Americans, believes that his shortstop, Wagner, will be even better behind the bat than in the infield, but the chances are that Wagner will remain ut his old station. Tom Williams, a former catcher, is now holding down bag No. 1 for the Boston Americans. Fred Snodgrass of the Gilants gave promise of developing into a crack catcher. Last season McGraw placed him in the outfleld. where he has play- ed fairly good ball. There is only one department of the game where all like to shine. That is batting. Ed Walsh may like to play first, but when it comes his time to bat in practice you bet he doesn’t surrender it. He bats. It is so with every man in the game. He may be dissatisfied with his position, he may want to play another, but you bet he won't surrender bjs place in the bat- ting order to anybody. There are no exceptions. 4 English 8occer Team Coming. Announcement has been made that the Corinthians of England, the fa- mous amateur soccer football team which has visited many parts of the world, will tour the United States and Canada in September. The tourists will start thelr schedule in Canada and play also in Philadelphia, New York, St. Louis, Chicago and Fall River. LUMBER DEALERS FEEL SAFE Bt. Paul Men Deny Being in Any Com- bination. St Paul, May 22.—St. Paul lumber dealers, neither wholesale nor retail, are in any assoclation or combination of lumber interests that is at present being investigated or prosecuted by the United States government, accord- Ing to the St. Paul representative of one of the biggest lumber interests fu the country. “There are three classes of lumber dealers’ associations,” he said. “One Is the National Lumber Manufacturers’ association, another is the -National Wholesale Lumber Dealers’ associa- tion; the third is composed of a num- ber of local retailers’ assoclations. “It is the National Wholesale Lum- ber Dealers’ association -that the gov- ernment is at present investigating.” Past That Now.

SPORTS OF THE DAY BLOOMER GIRLS BEAT BOYS Brokston Maiden ~Team Receives Praise From Home Paper. Over in St. Louis county at Brook- ston, the girls of the village have organized a bloomer baseball team. They first began by practicing alone' but soon became so expert that they challenged the boys team and beat them. Commenting on the contests, this weeks’ Brookston Herald says: “The games are ‘interesting, and the girls are becoming as proficient as the boys in playing the great na- tional game. The ‘bloomers are billed to play at Poupores siding next week.” : 1’60 FAST HORSES AT HAMLINE. Some of These Expected to “Put one Over” at State Fair. Hamline, Minn., May 22— (Daily| Ploneer Special Service)—The popu- larity of the Minnesota State Fair grounds as training headquarters for high class race horses is rapidly in- creasing. At present there are 150 horses in active trainTng at the Ham- line plant. Work-out miles around 2:25 are becoming common. There are an exceptionally large number of “green” _pacers and trotters Many of them will be seen in the races at the statefair Septem- ber 4 to Tx Of the record horses there are a number of performers that have won fame ‘and ‘money in Minnesota and over other tracks throughout the country. Some of the best known of these are Rollins, 2:08, being pre- pared by James Kerr, and Bill Bailey, 2:08 1-2, in the stable of Fred Martin, who is also training seven green ones. “Rube” Parker is training Black Joe, 2:10 1-4; Capt. R., 2:10 1-2, and Don Densmore, 2:10'1-4. W. J. Hawkshaw expects to do something with Miller Boy, 2:16 1-4, BOSS COX FREED BY OHIO COURT All Indictments Against Banker and | Political Leader Dismissed. Cincinnati, May 22—Motions to quash the perjury indictments against George B. Cox, banker and Republic- an. poltical leader, made by his at- torneys two weeks ago, were granted by:Judge William T. Dickson of the eommon pleas court. Judge Dickson found the indict- ments defective in substance, this phase of the decision operating to free Cox not only from the indictments in question, but also from reindictment on the same set of alleged facts by any subsequent grand jury. Cox was indicted on Feb. 21 and his case has been fought before fifteen Judges of the common pleas, circuit and supreme courts of Ohio, the bat- tle of technicalities starting when Cox swore off the bench Judge Frank Gor- man, then sitting in the criminal branch of the court of common pleas. From this point the attorneys fought the right of a prosecutor to take simi- lar action through the circuit court to the suprem-~ court of the state, the latter body giving out a finding which virtually confirmed the position taken by Cox's attorneys that the common pleas court of Hamiiton county had sufficient jurisdiction to dispose of the questions involved. Case Returned to Dickson. Judge Charles J. Hunt thereupon held the Cox aMdavits against Judge Gorman sufficlent, overruled a similar affidavit by the prosecutor directed against Judge Dickson and confirmed the latter as the trial judge. The mo- tion to quash was originally made be- fore Judge Gorman, but it reverted to Dickson when the latter was finally named to hear the case for and against Cox. Judge Dixon holds, in substance, tnat in calling Cox before the grand Jury in 1906 and compelling him to testify there, and then indicting him for perjury because of that testimony, there was a violation of his constitu- tional rights. “Nothing" said by the accused at that time before that grand jury can be: the predicate of any criminal charge against him by any indict- ment,” is the declaration of Judge Dickson, which not only frees Cox ab- solutely upon the present indictment, but holds that he never can be law- fully indicted upon the facts set out by the last grand jury or because of anything he sald at the grand jury hesring in 1906. In making this decision, involving in effect the decision on a demurrer, Judge Dickson sald: “At all events, it is better, if pos- eible, to “dispose of this ground now than. to resort to a technicality,” and delay the issue by compelling a de- murrer to be filed and go over this ground again. ATTORNEY GENERAL CLEARED Johnson Case Decided by South Da- kota Supreme Court. Rierre, S. D, May 22.—In an opinion by Corson, concurred in by all the other members, the supreme court holds that the charges in the .disbar- ment proceedings against Attorney General Royal C. Johnson were no: sustained by the testimony presented and the accusation js' dismissed. = S, P A Few Wende. “Did you have many words with your wife last night?” ° “No; only a few words, but they ‘Were repeated—very often.” : SEPTIC TANE CAN BE FIXED After Partial*Investigation, Visiting Expert Holds Out Hope. ' No definite conclusion was arrived at yesterday in connection _with the septic tank, when G. E. Carroll, the Crookston city engineer, who was re- cently appointed as.the third member of the boara of arbitration to investi- gate the condition of the tank, visit- ed it. Pad Mr. Carrol arrived in the city yes-| terday morning and as the water had not all been pumped out of the tank at 1 o’clock, when the electri- city, which furnishes the power for the pump, was shut off, he decided that he would make as much of an in- vestigation as he could without going down in the tank. This' he did, and while he will make no report to the council this evening he will at the next meeting, which according to his expressed opinion would be to the effect, that the tank could be repaired so as to be useful, but that in its present con- dition’it is not. * { 2 Notice.
