Despite the flerceness of the contest, there wi only one mishap during the game. Charl Swaine, while at the bat, attempted to swallow the ball, but falled. The at- tempt, however, jarred him considerably and for the time being retired him to the bench. Deputy Sherift W. A. Groneweg officlated as starter for the races and Dr. Gall Ham- fiton was prepared to act as referee in case of a dlspute, but his services were not called upon.

Leaser, Who Got Into Trouble with Federal Authorities, Sells His Newspaper Property at Tama. (From a Staft Correspondent.) DES MOINES, Aug. 8.—(Speclal)—The Des Moines delegution to the grand” lodge of Knights of Pythias will leave ot Mon- day for Council, Bluffs.” ThiK¥ Wilt be the largest delegation to the grand lodge and its allled meetinigs. There Will Be, count- Ing the delegates to the grand lodge, the Rathbone Sisters and the Uniforim Renk from Valley Junction, about seventy per- sons who will go from here to Council Bluffs. The two blg lodges of this city and the two suburban lodges are entitled to twenty-nine representatives, and in addi- tion there will be Past Grand Chancellor Dowell, entitied to & vote, and Past Grand Chancellor Dille, formerly of Tennessee.

The Des Moines delegation Is most Interested in the movement for making a sanitarium at Colfax and will back the proposition, which Is almost as much a Des Moines matter as for Colfax; In fact, Colfax fs regarded as closely allled with Des Moines in this and other matt The commit- tee of the Colfax lodge and business men |' of Colfax have issued a statement of their position intended to explain the present status of the sanitarium project. To A it in Diocese Divisions. A meeting of the leading clergymen of the southern part of the state was held here today for the purpose of considering the probable division of the Davenport diocess and establishment of Des Molnes as & see city In the Cathollc church. They will do what they can to further the mat- ter and to give encouragement to the division. They expressed the bellef that the division will come this year, that the new pontiff is a progre 've and active man and that inasmuch as the division has al- ready been approved and only awaits ac- tion at Rome, it will be reached very soon. Archbishop Keane of Dubuque is under- stood to bo in Rome now and it is be- lleved he will ask that the matter be ad- vanced, as well as other matters in his metropolitan see. Lesser Sells His Pap W. R. Lesser of Tama county has sold his newspaper, the Tama Free Press, and it is understood it will be discontinued, as it was taken In by persons who had ad- vanced money thereon. Lesser is the agent of the land department who was indicted at Omaha by the United States grand jur: in conmection with alleged false returns | of expense account while he was engaged in investigating the Jand matters in west- ern Nebraska. He has been compelled to divide his time between his newspaper in JTowa and his work in Nebraska and this is believed by his friends to have been the chief cause of his trouble In connection ‘with the alleged false statements. Men Teachers Active. More men are going into the teaching profession in Jowa than usual. State Su- perintendent Barrett attended Institutes in southern Iowa the past week and found that there was a larger proportion of men in the institutes than usual. In Appanoose county, for instance, he found that of an enroliment of 200 there are forty men. This I8 not true of every county of the state, however, for in Bremer county it is reported that there was not one man en- rolled until a canvasser put his name on the books 8o as to make a showing. Su- perintendent Barrett spoke before Insti- tutes at Corydon, Centerville and Fair- fleld and yesterday spoke to the Polk county teachers in Des Molnes. Next week he will go to Spencer, on Tuesday, and speak at a nommal institute, then to Storm Lake, Webster City and lowa Falls the following three days. There s generally a larger attendance at the normal institutes this year than for several years, and those held in August have been thus far favored by good weather. New Ratlroad to Be Opened, Officials of the Burlington rallroad are to hold a meeting early next week to arrange the schedule of regular trains for the new route from Des Moines eastward by reason of the complet -\ of the Tracey cutoff, ‘The bridge over .he Des Moines river was completed this week and trains are ran- ning over it. By September 1 it will be possible to make use of the cutoff, which runs from Tracey on the Albla line to Oskaloosa, the former terminus of the Burlington Northwestern. The new cut- off is about twenty-five miles. The ltne from Burlington to Oskaloosa was last year completely rebullt and’ transforated from & narrow gauge (0 o' standard gauge road. With the completioni of the’cutot there is an entire new line from Des Moines to Burlington thréough Oskaloosa, Hedrick, Wayland, Brighton and other £00d towns. The new line wlil form’ prao- tically a new route from Des Molnes te Chicago and it is expected that the Bur- lington's Des Moines business eastward will all be routed over this new line. It will be shorter and more convenlent and will relleve the main line of the Burling- ton to that extent. Injunction May Not Work. The state auditor has béen served with notice of an iInjunction to prevent him from certifying to county auditors the as- sessment made inst the Western Union Telegraph company on account of the tel- egraph lines along the Burlington rallroad. The hearing of the case will not occur for me time and in the meantime the as- sessment lists will be prepared, but not sent out. Now it is pointed out that inas- much' as the asessment has been made and completed there is nething In the way of the county auditors placing the same on their books for taxation without any certi- fication from the atate auditor. Even if they should fall to spread upon their books the assessment made, it would still be the duty of the county treasurers to see that the taxes are collected. It is therefore believed that no matter what the courts do the taxes will be collected on this line of telegraph.
