SPORTS OF DRUMMERS TO PLAY AGAIN “Fats” and “Leans” of Bemidji Com- mercial Men to Clash Aug. 28. The second game of baseball be- tween the “Fats” and the “Leans” of the local council of the United Com- m rcial Travelers has been sched- uled for Saturday, August 26, at the Fair grounds. The game will be called at 2:30 p. m. and will go sev- en full innings. Enthusiasm and much interest in the city and along the line of travel has been stirred to such extent that many of the “Boys” are planning to be here for Saturday’s game. The “Fats” have some heavy hit- ters among them. Some of the old time sluggers being €. W. Vander- slues, M. F. Wilson, H. H. Mayers, and T. R. Symons. Mr. Vanderslues was at one time known as a second Anson with the stick. He is the one man the “Leans” fear. The “Fats” are also organizing a rooting organization which always is of as- sistance to a ball team. The “Leans” are not without some good players, they having a few star players among them. They have none that are particularly clever with the stick, but have some fine fielding material. The game prom- ises to be an exciting contest with the betting about even. The lineup of the teams has not definitely been decided, but probably will be as follows: “Fats”, H. Koors, catcher; Mayers, pitcher; Browning, first base; Rood, second base; Ellison, third base; Hewett, short stop; Cas- per, left field; Pope, center field and J. Goodman, right field. “Leans,” catcher, F. Koors; pitcher, Denu; first base, Ebert; second base, Hag- en; third base, Noll; short stop, Fin- nigan; fielders, Tabor, Erwin, Demp- sey, Osborn, and Boxear.

Philadelpnia Aug. 11— Philadel- phia bunched hits with fielding and battery errors by St. Louis and easily won the game.

St. Paul, Aug. 17.—Weighing near- ly fifteen pounds less than his op- ponent, Walter Miller, St. Paul’s wel- terweight champion wrestler, defeat- ed Joe Carr of Minneapolis last night before a crowd of 5,000 people at Nicollet park in straight falls. It wasg one of the greatest exhibitions of wrestling ever seen there, with Mil- ler getting stronger every minutes, while his opponent seemed to lose heart as the bout lengthened. The first fall came after one hour and eleven minutes of the hardest kind of work on the part of both men, Miller clamping a half nelson and a body scissors on the struggling Carr. After the intermission Miller came back apparently stronger than ever, while Carr seemed to lose heart, and Miller was never in danger. It took but eighteen minutes for Miller to find his opening. This time winning the fall with a scissors hold.

The pir- ates are coming to the front in the National League race at a fast clip. The work of Cashion, Washing- ton’s young pitcher, looks like real lace. He comes from the Carolina Association. Scout Fred Lake, of the St. Louis Browns, is trying to buy the Lynn franchise in the New England League. New York was the only solt pick- ing for the White Sox during the eastern trip. The Chicago crew was badly scorched in Boston, Philadel- phia and Washington. Tigers Hit Left Handers. One of the reasons the Tigers have been able to win 80 many games this year is they have been successful in hitting left-handed pitchers. Every manager in the league has been send- ing southpaw pitchers against the De- troit men for they were weak against them last year. BRANDS HAZEN BILL FRAUD (Continued from first page).

After a long wait the meat was brought to the customer, who; in- stead of thanking the waiter, said: “Look here, you man, what is the matter with this meat?” “Nothing is the matter fith it, sir, except that the paint on it has form- €d a few Ulisters from the heat.” “Why, what do you mean by that?” asked the old man. “Simply this.” replied the waiter. “Those pieces of meat you saw in the window were' not made to eat.
