One of the largest crowds that ever attended a game here saw the afternoon contest, which was won mainly through O’Toole’s excellent pitching, he striking out ten men and keeping the seven hits well scattered. The early part of the first game was played in a drizzling rain in Minneapolis. First Game— R. H.

The bearers of a stretcher should be as near the same height as possible. It there is any difference the taller and stronger man should be at the head. A stretcher should be carried by the bands or suspended by straps from the shoulders. Never carry a stretcher when loaded upon the shoul- ders. It frightens the patient, and he might fall off very easily, especially if one of the bearers should stumble. The bearers should not keep step, but break step, the one in front starting off with his right foot and the one behind with his left. The injured should be car- ried feet first. In going up a hill or up- stairs the head should be in front and the reverse in descending, except in case of a broken thigh'or leg, when the feet should be first in going up and last in coming down to keep the weight of the body -off the injured limb.—“First Aid to the Injured,” Dr. H. H. Hartung, in National Magazine. A Delicate Question. The Worker (consulting solicitor)—'S like this ’ere, mister: Sposin’ two blokes—same’s might be you and me— 's drinkin’ a glass o’ beer.

The club will shoot again on Fri- day, June 2, and all members are in- vited to attend to watch four or five of the interested ones shoot. HEach . | members must shoot his 600 targets to be figured in the averages for the cup. There will be-no exceptions. All members are especially invited for this coming Friday, as there is a surprise in store for them. Through .| the efforts of our president, T. R. Symons, and one or two others who take enough interest tolook afterthe Gun Club’s welfare, and who have spent the last two days working on the grounds, they have, with the aid of the carpenter, improved the grounds and rebuilt the trap house, boxed in the rod and pulling device so that our buildings and grounds have the appearance of a prosperous gun club. If the members will kind- ly attend June 2, they will see where two or three have done two hard days work for the club. We hope and know that there will be a better attendance now, if the members will just come far enough down there to look over the Red Lake tracks, and see what we have got. D. D. MILLER, Sec’y. Handling a Haddock. “There is no better place than a fish market to pick up queer supersti- tions,” said a restaurant proprietor. men of haddock. The dealer, who was an Italian, nearly choked on the bunch of Neapolitan expletives that rushed into his throat. “‘Nevaire, no, nevaire take up bad- dock so,” he said. “‘How? I asked. “‘By the head, so your fingers umch those dark spots on each side of the head,’ he said. ‘The curse fall on you 1 you do.’ “‘Whose curse? said I. “‘St. Petaire’s’ said he. ‘St. Pe- taire gave the haddock those dark spots. They are his finger prints. He catch haddock just so in the sea of Galilee, and every haddock born since then has shown those same marks. Let go.” “And I did let go. Of course I did not believe it, but when I found that balf the fish dealers in that market did believe 1 deemed it prudent to handle haddock by the body or tail.”— New York Sun. A Maniac’s Pbem. Probably the mass of prison poetry which has been written on stools and bedposts and scratched on prison walls far exceeds that which has found ex: pression on paper, and many a ‘“‘mute, inglorious Milton” has begun and fin- ished his poetical career with these “lost to sight” productions. There is in existence a short poem, said to have been scratched by a maniac on the wall of his cell, which runs thus: Could I with ink the ocean flll, ‘Were all the world of parchment made, ‘Were every reed on earth a quill And every man a scribe by trade, To write the love of God alone Would drain that ocean dry; Nor could the scroll contain the whole, ‘Though stretched from sky to sky. The authenticity of this being the work of a maniac has often been ques- tioned because of the beauty of its ex- pression and its sound reason, but the story stands.—London Snturday Re- view. Bird Stories. A German scientific journal publish- ed in 1897 a story to the effect that & golden eagle shot in that year at Es- zeg, Slavonia, was found to have a ring about its neck engraved on which ‘were the arms of a Slavonian family and the date 1646. In 1793 the Gentleman’s Magazine told about a hawk, captured when fiy- ing in the vicinity of the Cape of Good Hope and taken by an Indian ship to England, which wore a gold collar in- scribed: “This goodlie hawk doth belong to his Most Excellent Majesty James, King of England. A. D. 1610.” It this bird really escaped from England in the reign of James, 183 years elapsed between its escape and its recapture, and it had flown a dis- tance of 6,500 miles away from its former owner. A Boy Once Himself. The principal of a village school in Kansas one afternoon detected a boy cutting the letters of his name in the desk in front of him. As the novels would put it the principal rushed to the spot, angrily put forth his hand intending to grasp the boy by the col lar, when lo, and also behold, close by the newly formed letters were the initials of the principal’'s own name written by himself when he was a pu- pil in the same school. His grasp upon the boy’s collar loosened itself, and he returned to his desk a sadder and a wiser teacher. That principal is today judge of an important court in one of the greatest cities of the world, We often wonder whether or not in the administration of justice the judge ever thinks of the incident in the vil- lage school.—Western School Journal Could Easily Belisve It. “I suppose you wouldn't believe,” sald the manager, “that it cost me $25,000 to raise the curtain on this show?” “I do,” replied the critic. “I'm sur- that price.”—Chicago Record-Herald. ‘|the bank, under direction of Harry “The other day I held up a fine speci- |~ (Comlnuad from Page. 1.) 5 Wwith several patriotic selections by Masten, which was followed by a short address by Mayor John Parker. The mayor told of the kind manner in which all citizéns had promised their aid to make the day a Memorial day in every respect, that the city soldiers $100 to put in their treasury as their would not need it paying ex- penses for the decorating, and that he wished to; at that time, present it to them. George Smith, -acting commander of the post, who acted as director of the program, then thanked the mayor and the cotncil on the part of the Post for the aid. Quartet Sings America. A woman’s quartet, comprised of Misses Wheeler, Grest, McGillan and Murray, sang “America’” while the entire audience rose to thelr feet and joined in. Invocation was given by the post chaplain, Rev. T. J. Martin. The girls glee club, comprised of thirty girls, all members of the eighth grade of the Bemidji public schools, sang. A company made up of seventeen boys, ranging from eight to twelve years of age, gave a drill. The boys were equipped with guns and swords, and won much" applause. H. Sherman Berge, sang “The Flag.” On the program Mrs. H. W, Bailey had been named to read Lin- coln’s Gettysberg address, but do to the illness of her husband and the unfavorable weather, she was unable to attend the program and her som, Omer, read the address. W. P. Dyer, superintendent of the Bemidji public schools, in introducing the speaker of the day, Judge Powers, said that he had known of the Judge for a number of years and felt Be- midji fortunate in obtaining him as a speaker. Worked the Visitor. | “Speaking ‘about visiting English. wan,” sald a-hotel manager recently who had been reading about one in the mewspapers, “reminds me of one that came to the Palmer House in Chicago some years ago when I was room clerk out there. He and another had been paying a visit to the Rockies, and their last stopping place had been Cheyenne. Coming east they had fallen in with some Americans who made themselves agreeable, with this result: “After they had put their names on the register one of the Englishmen leaned over the desk. “4I say,’ he whispered, ‘I am expect- ing President Cleveland's son to call this evening to return £50 which I lent him on the train. Will you please put_the money in the safe for me if 1 do not happen to be In? “I promised, for I had not the heart %o shatter his confidence in human na- ture. President Cleveland didn’t hap- pen to have such a thing as a son at that time.”—New York Sun. Royal Perqui 8. The king has many privileges which he never exercises. He enjoys an im- memorial right to all gold and silver mines, not only on his own land, but upon any of his subjects’ lands within his dominions. So sharcholders in Rand and Westralian mines would have to forego their dividends if the king felt avariciously disposed. The king is also entitled to a yearly tribute from his tailor, consisting of a pair of ‘white doves, a pound of cummin seed, a pair of scarlet bose and a silver needle. All sturgeons and whales caught in British waters are royal perqulsites. The whale has a split lability. Its tall belongs to the queen, while its head goes to the king. It is generally assumed that the partition was decid- ed upon in order that the queen should always be supplied with whalebone, but if so the founder of this act of beneficence committed the mistake of giving the queen the wrong half.— London Chronicle. Witty Ann Pitt. Bolingbroke called England’s great statesman, Willlam Pitt (Lord Chat- ham), “Sublimity Pitt,” and he dubbed his sister Ann “Divinity Pitt.” But that must have been long after there ‘were written and received the delight- ful letters addressed to Pitt's “Dearest Nanny,” his “little Nan,” his “little Jug.” “Oh, for the restless tongue of dear little Jug!” he exclaims in a letter writ- ten by him from Northampton when, & lad of twenty-three, he had but lately Joined his regiment. Ann Pitt’s restless tongue was never stilled, for when Chesterfield, calling on her in his later life, complained of decay with the words, “I fear that I am growing an old woman,” Ann brisk- ly replied: “I am glad of it. I was afraid you were growing an old man, which, as you know, is a much worse thing.” The L He—Yes, it's very trua. "a man doesn't learn what happiness is until he's mar- rled. She—I'm glad you’ve discovered that at last. He—Yes, and when he's married it's too late.—Dorfbarber. - No Sympathy. “Here, waiter, there’s = soup.” “Serves the brute right. He's been buzzin’ round bere all the mornin'.”— Life. fily in my Life is no dream, but life 18 nothing without its great dreams.
