FIVE TO THIRTEEN IN FAVOR OF “US” The Deer-River-Cohasset Game Last Sundey Demonstrated That Cohasset Is “It.” We went on a special train, came home on a special train with special honors dangling to our belts—5 to 13 in favor of Cohasset. Deer River was vanquished by a majority of eight tallies. This is the story in brief of.the.Cohasset-Deer.River game played last Sunday. And, incidental- ly, a better time was never enjoyed by a jolly party of fun seekers. It was all done between 1:30 and 7:30 in the afternoon. ¢ Good ball was played by — both teams and it was a game worth wit- nessing from start to finish, although it was by no means errorless. If it had been perfectly played it would have proved less interesting. It’s fun to see some of the hot-heads on the other side storm when a bad play &s made, and it has a tendency to liven up things. Pitcher Bracket for Cohasset was credited with thirteen strike-outs to.four.for.Vannest. George Ruby of Deer River and Wm. Smith of Cohasset "rendered the decisions as umpires,.and.they.were.as popular as umpires are supposed to be. The features of the game came in the eighth inning when Henry Brackett walloped a three-bagger..Glen Strand followed him to bat and brought him home with a two-base hit. Johnson on first made a double play unassist- ed and put out the runner. Reidels- perger, for Deer River, made an ad- mirable play when he grabbed a ball as it sailed over a barbed-wire fence, and made the play good. The line-up of ‘both teams was as follows: Deer River—Geo. Herried, c; Van- nest,p; Lindberg, Ib; Blazing, 2b; Henry Herreid, ss; Ponpore, 3b; Geo. Rich, rf; Al. Wellein, cf; J. Reigels- perger lf. Cohasset—G. Vassar, c; H. Brackett, p; Johnson, 1b; W. Vas- sar, 2b; F. Brackett, 3b, F. Konklin, ss; Joe Mix, rf; Glen Strand, cf; Geo. Crotto if. eee Fe is Not a Candidate “I want you to state in the Cohasset Herald-Review that the report of my candidacy for the office of sheriff of Itasca county is not true,” said Wia. Carter to the reporter. “I’m wii! ing to let Sheriff Riley have another term and I want to see him re-elect- e&. Later on, when my farm is all under cultivation and I am pointed to as one of the wealthiest farmers and stock raisers in Itasca county, I may)serve a term or two as_ sheriff just as a diversign, but not now,” he continued. Asked about crop con- ditions on his farm Mr. Carter said they were quite satisfactory, but that he had filed an application for rain with County Commissioner O’Brien, and he hoped the board would take favorable action on the matter at the next meeting. Commissioner O’Brien he said, had always been able to get jeverything for his district that it really was much in need of and cer- tainly rain is greatly in demand at present. Mr. Carter owns a fine farm two and a half miles north of town with sixty acres cleared of everything but! its fertility. It is also provided with a commodious frame residence Jauilding, barns, root house, ete., He has recently moved his family to §hd farmstead, where they will re- side during the summer. Visite’ County Roads County Commissioner Morris O’Brien returned from a _ cruise through the wilderness of the Big-! fork country. He was out with Com- missioners McWilliams and King as a committee appointed to investigate certain applications for new roads And to size up the road situation generally. He says it was the hard- est trip through the woods he ever made, and he has been in the woods alf his life. If was a case of tramp under the boiling heat of the sun jover a large territory, and that the “tramps” did not fall.exhausted.by.the wayside is something for which they have reason to feel thankful. When H. B. Shoop and John Nel- son returned last Wednesday from a river and lake cruise they both de- clared that the sun was shining on the water and tliat bathing was nev- er more enjoyable in Pokegama lake They were fearful, however, that the warm rays of a clear June day might have scorched the exposed portions of that alabastian hides and as a precautionary measure applied en in- ternal preventive. It worked ali right, they ‘say. THEY CHARTERED SPECIAL TRAIN Manager Homer Wright of the Base Ball Club Is Equal to Any |Emergency. ‘Cohasset is certainly up-to-date when it comes to public enterprise. The people of this town ‘are always prepared for any emergency and ire equal to any difficulty that may arise. And Manager Homer Wright of the base ball team is one of those who understands that Cohasset citi- zens may always be relied upon to do their full share in a noble cause. Last Sunday a game was scheduled with Deer River at that place. The boys had planned to make the trip from here to Deer River by boat, as there are a number of launches here that they thought would be available. But when the manager investigated he found that the owners of a num- ber of boats had made other arrange- ments for Sunday. The steamboats were not available for the excursion. Finally it was concluded that teams would be hired.This, however ,was not satisfactory on account of the poor condition of the road. The par- ty might have gone up on the 1:45 train, but that would hold them ov- er until 3 o’clock Monday morning. “A special train is none too good for this bunch, if money can hire one,” said Manager Wright, and he proceeded to interview Agent Stivers of the.Great.Northern.The latter took the matter up with the Superior of- fice and the result was that a special with three coaches and baggage car were pulled into this station at 1:30 Dp. m. It cost $75.00, which amount Manager Wright handed over to Agent Stivers. He felt that he knew the public-spiritedness of the Cohas- set people well enough to justify his confidence in their generous response to make good the outlay. And they did it. One hundred and thirty five tickets were sold at 75 cents each, netting a total of $101.25. After pay- ing all expenses, including train ser- vice and incidentals, the enterprising manager of the team had about fif- teen dollars to turn over to the team’s treasurer. Besides that they won the game 5 to 13, notwithstand- ing the fact that Al. Wellein of Grand Rapids played with the Deer Riverites. When it comes to doing things on short notice Cohasset 1s sure there. Bought Tract of 404 Acres Cashier F. J. Skocdopole of the Co- hasset State bank, while a new man in this community, has already shown his faith in the value of real estate hereabouts. Yesterday he closed a deal with F. J. Foley, the Grand Rap- ids land dealer, for a tract of 404 acres of fine hardwood land located on the northeast shore of Bass Lake, about two and one-half miles from town. This is as fine a piece of agri- cultural land as is to be found in ‘nis: vieini'y. Ir has a large stand of hardwood timber of various kinds, that is said to be of sufficient value to pay ‘the purchase price. 3 2 Cohasset Cullings HPD eS Dr. Johnson went to Grand Rapids ‘Monday.
