'For years the Detroit club has boast- ed of its sluggers, The Tigers’ lineup always has in- cluded one or more players who have stood out prominently because of their ability to hit, Back in the old days there was Sam Thompson. How that baby could swat them! Sam is alive and well still. ‘Each year he takes a leading part in the opening-day ceremonies at Detroit. When the American League came into existence Detroit was one of the cities of the Johnsonian circuit. That was more than a score of years ago. In the Detroit lincup was Crawford, known to baseball fans the country over as “Wahoo Sam.” That title was conferred upon him because he hailed from the hamlet of Wahoo, Neb. Fine Form at Bat.

He is being used as an under- study to the veteran, George Cutshaw He has demonstrated already that he can hit.

The rise and fall of the Midland Packing company has been described as “the greatest bubble in the history of the northwest.” Stock was issued and subscribed for psincipally by far- mers in South Dakota, Iowa, Nebraska, Minnesota and North Dakota, amount- ing to approximately $9,000,000. Divi. dends of $70,000 were paid by the company even before tne plant was opened and after five months’ opera- tion, during which time the company lost $200,000, its affairs were forced into receivers hands. In South Dakota the company was licensed by the state securities com- mission to. sell only $200,000 worth. of! its stock at a par value of $100, divid- ed equally between common and pre- It was later discovered that nearly ‘$111,000 of the common variety and $1,000,000 of the seven per cent preferred had been sold to South Da- kotans, . 3 Gross irregularities in the manipula- tions and selling of the company’s stock, and in the management of the plant after its completion were alleged to have been unearthed by the receiv. ers, ‘Outstanding among these alleged abuses were the payment of commis- sions to stock salesmen to “sell” stock to the officers of the company and the re-sale agreement extended to purchasers, through which it has been declared, the officers apparently profited more than $500,000. ‘Personal Notes Given. ‘Personal notes of the purchasers for huge blocks of stock, often amounting to many thousands of dollars were ac- cepted by salesmen, it.is said, with the promise that they wauld he used only as collateral and never presented for payment.

Work of replacing number of old corridors that have be come unsafe for use will be started soon. This is'an improvement that has been contemplated for some time. The corridors to be rebuilt are those first constructed. cad Preparations for finishing the new ward building were also put under way by the board and Supt. Guest was instructed to ascertain prices of materials required in the completion The superstructure has been com- pleted for a year but no use of the building has been had, because of its unfinished interior. The usual ggrden acreage has been planted to vegetables. An acre of land on the asylum farms will be seeded to sugar beets and cultivated and cared for under the direction’ of the state Commis- sioner of Agriculture and Labor Kitchen. It is expected to make a careful experiment in the culture of sugar beets with a purpose of extend- ing the industry in this part of the state. Work of drilling the new artesian well still continues and the drillers are down 1435 feet. Accidents to drill and tools have delayed the com- pletion of this well. ; Miners.who work in arsenic mines ‘have to. take every - precaution to provent themselves becoming pois- problems in a natural, human manner. | This she does to perfection in her latest Paramount starring _ vehicle, “Her Own Money,” which shows at the Eltinge today and Thursday, con- cerns. a young wife with an extrava- gant husband. By the practice of the strictest economy, she saves two thou- sand dollars, intending to purchase a home of her own. But the husband becomes involved in a business. deal and is in immediate ‘need of” two, thousand dollars, or loses his invest- ment. Seeing he is unable to borrow the money, the wife secretly arranges with a neighbor to lend her husband her own money, Brotending: it is from him. The deal falls through, the mo- ney is lost and in an ensuing situation the truth is brought to light. This estranges the husband from the wife, but there is a subsequent happy twist which makes for a happy finish.
