SPORTS OF © Wednesday Baseball Results. © R O R OB ORI IR RS St. Paul, June 1.—Miserable field- ing by Minneapolis and Laroy’s ef- fective pitching, enabled St. Paul to make. it three straight from Minne- apolis yesterday. Catchér Dawson of Minneapolis went into the grand- stand and assaulted a negro rooter. Manager Joe Cantillon and several other Minneapolis players jumped in to assist Dawson, Cantillon striking the negro over the head with a bat and inflicting a deep gash. . Police separated the combatants and Daw- son and Cantillon were placed under arrest, Cantillon being taken to the station. Dawson escaped from the officers and boarded a street car for Minneapolis. Cantillon was charged with assault and battery and released Varsity Athletes in Good Form. Minnesota’s chances for winning ithe western incollegiate conferance meet which will be held on Northrop field Friday and Saturday of this week are the best in the history of the Gopher institution according to the opinion of the student body-at Minneapolis. The team is in 'ex- cellent condition and the “studes” figure that Minnesota is going to make & strong run for first place and possibly carry off the prime honors of the meet. The University track followers are counting on Hill, Vanstrum, Ted An- derson, Leonard, Frank Lambert, Peterson and Lucius Smith as big point winners, with Connely, Stads- vold, Tydemann and Wilson fairly sure of places in the finals. ~Sixty gold, silver and bronze medals, a on bail large silver loving cup, an 18-inch d bronze statue of a discus hurler com- St. Paul . | prise the trophies for the meet re- ceived by Helon Leach, manager of university athletics, yesterday.

DPresent system a city or state nearly always: is stung when it comes to 'buying anything. In New York City Mayor Gaynor discovered that cer- tain valves for the water department were being purchased by the city at $1.50 while he could privately buy them for six cents. Again, the de- partment had been paying $2 for ‘dippers that could be bought for 60 cents a dozen. It is contended that such . things could not exist under the commisson plan for the eyes of the public would be too closely glued on the man who does the buying and his responsibility too definitely fixed to permit of such things. Therefore, it would seem that any system which promises a simplifica- tion of the machinery of government and a definite fixing of responsibility should be worthy the study and care- ful consideration of this representa- tive assembly. That the commission form of organization is more in har- mony with the industrial and busi- ness methods of today and more in harmony with the most important functions which a state is called up- on to perform can scarcely be ques- tioned. "If, therefore, it is true that the commission plan would be an im- provement, it should be brought about in this state for there is noth- ing’ too good for Minnesota. I put the question in your hands and I know of no better hand, not even four of a kind. And in saying goodbye I bring you a message of good cheer from the little city in which that great body for good, the Northern Minnesota Development dssociation, was born. Some notable events have taken place in our town. We lmave given to the public men who have won brilliant victories in the political arena. We have carved a modern.city out of the forest—a forest now punctured with farms; the governor of the state has been proud to break bread at our banquets; United States Senators and members of the cabinet have received honors at our hands but Bemidji con- siders her crowning glory that me- morable day in February when the Northern Minnesota Development Association drew its first breath of life and elected from our people Wil- liam R. Mackenzie as its guiding light. I thank you. Laziness Leads to Invention. Laziness has been at the back of many an invention, and it was a lazy pointsman who hit on the idea that made the distance signal possible. Ac- cording to Sir George Finlay, it was in 1846 that a pointsman who had to attend to two station signals some dis- tance apart decided to save himself the trouble of walking to and fro between them by fastening the two levers to- gether by a long plece of wire. A bro- ken fron chair served as counterweight. The wire ran on into his hut. and there he sat nightly and worked the two slgnals without setting foot out- side till he was found out and repri- manded and promoted.—London Ckron- Lle. Branding Criminals In England. The branding of criminals was abolished in this country in 1778. Un- til then this punishment was inflicted in open court, generally in the pres- ence of the judge, generally In_the presence of the judge, the necessary implements—the iron brund. the chaf- ing dish and the iron gripper for keep- ing the hand steady—being always in readiness. The usual brand was an “R” applled to the left shoulder. Child stealing, etc., however, were at one time punished by branding-the of- fender with “R” on the shoulder (for rogue), “ on the right hand (for manslayer), and “T” on the left hand (for thief).—Pall Mall Gazette.

A Growing River. Senator Thomas 8. Martin of Vir- ginia says he is now in a position to appreclate the gift of the negro race for picturesque exaggeration. He was driving along a country road near Alexandria, says the Washington Star, when he met &n old negro whose venerable appearance attracted his at- tention. “You are pretty old, aren’t you, uncle?” asked the senator. 3 1 should say I is!” answered the negro, “How old are you?’ x “T don’ know zackly,” explained the 0ld ' man dellberately; “but 1 is so old dat when I was a little boy de Poto- mac ribber was nuffin’ but a little stream.” 5 i Nover Suffered From Bath.

An expectant grin went round the circle, for Storekeeper Jones bad the reputation of never ‘wronging bimself by overweighing or under- charging. The merchant adjusted his glasses and looked expectantly from the bill to the woodchopper. ‘'Notice you chargeéd me for five gal lons o' molasses last time I had this four gallon keg filled,” drawled Rufe. “I don’t mind payin’® for the extra gal- lon, Mr. Jones, but I do kinder ha to have a .good keg strained to pleces.” —Youth's C . * The Samural's Servant.

The story, as Hearn tells it, is that: “Once a serv- ant of the family went to Ise, in de- spite of his masters ofders to remain in the house. . When he came back the samurai flew into a rage and kill- ed him, Then the murderer felt sorry and buried the body in the garden or bamboo patch. = The day after the servant came back again and apolo- gized for bis absence at Ise.
