Game 'I .:t' baseball pam-' Sundry was won by Twin Eiooks in the first game and Milbank -in the second. The first game, while not without its thriller:" y.ts rather slow and un interesting. The teams were hardly used to playing on a diamond as good as the local one. While the Vernon pitcher was warming i in the first inning, Twin Brooks hit him freeh and sent four runs around the circuit. Vernon came back in the second and on bunched hits and errors brought in o counters. The game settled down then and neither side was able to make more than two or three rum in any inning. The score by innings: 1 2 3 4 f. 6 7 8 9 T1 Twin Brooks 4010220 S 0—12 Vernon 0 5 0 0 1 1 3 0 0— 9 THE SECOND GAME The All-star team was picked from the two teams. Harvey Fennel pitch ed while Roberts the Twin Brook* catcher was on the receiving end. For Millc nk Jimmie Kernan was on the hill for the first time tins year, while old reliable Pete Peschong was behind the bat. Ke was replaced later in the game by Calfee, when a foul hit him on the hand. Ji'u.ine pitched a stellar game, The game Was interesting all the way tl.ru, the picked team showing une\[Kcted strength and the first 3 inninys were scoreless. The All stars crossed the plate first, but Mil bank took the lead in their half of the frame with, two runs The feature of the game perhaps was the number of foul balls hit. as it kept the bench players and the young boys on the field busy chasing them to keep the game going.

He appeared before Judge Bleser and paid an assessment of $10 and costs. There are quite a number of depu ties thruout the county and they have a good idea of the usual -first offen ders ami are keeping their eyes on them, so if there are any more law breakers that have an idea that they can step in ahead of their fallow hunters and collect a few birds, they had better think once again before they do it this year. It is not quite fair to those sportsmen who observe the law in waiting until the 15th of the month to hunt, nor is it good for the future hunting'to have the young birds killed before they have a chanco of a matured bird to get away. Bet ter watch out or the "deputy" will get you. H-A 8M Round-house Destroyed Fire, of unknown origin, which broke out about 4:30 o'clock Friday morning of last week, totally destroy ed the remainder of the old round house, the other part of which was destroyed a few years ago by fire. Since the construction of the pres ent round house, the old one has been used as a store house, where lumber tools, accessories, and coal were stored. All the contents as well as the building is a total loss. The loss amounts to about $9,000 or $10900. No decision has been receiv ed from headquarters as to whether or not another building will be built but it is not thot that it will be replac ed at this time.

'ir.i' ii (jpcnir.j/ ol .'i:' ittelstaedt store will be found in this issue of the paper. The main floor of the store haa been practical ly completed during the past week, with the exception of the plate glass for the front, which is on the way and expected the end of the week. During the first of the week the en tire force of the new store will be busy stocking the shelves and cases to be ready for the opening date. The store is a fine one, being larg and well lighted, with exceptionally fine arrangements. The wall case. and wood work of the store are all of a dark stain, well matched and very, pleasing to the eye. A large balcony is a new innovation for the store, where the office of the company, a rest room and some stock will be found Everything possible to make the store attractive and convenient has been added and we are sure that the people of Grant county will be pleas ed w-hen they see the results. Tho company is the successor to the Mittelstaedt brothers, Gus and Au gust, who for many years were mer chants here. The disastrous fire which destroyed the building and con tents last winter came shortly after the business had been sold to Arthui* ami Harold Mittelstaedt, and shortly before they had taken possession. H-A Accidently Shot By Self William Crowl, who has been as sistant night officer for some time past, was accidentally shot by himself when climbing up the tender of No. 1 Tuesday night to search the hoboes who were taking a free ride. The officers have been searching all hoboes for guns this fall, ar.d have made a practice of working double, one holding a flash light and the other doing the searching. Ed. Murray had gained the top of the tender and had his flash light on the four men who were laying down, waiting for Crowl *to come up the jothej- side to seai'ch them. Crowl carried his gun in one hand, and as he neared the lop, in some way it was discharged from above, the bullet entering his heart near the ear and emerging thru the jaw. He fell to the platform where Ed and employees of the railroad gave him assistance until he was ta ken to the hospital. Ee bled consid erably his clothing being soaked with blood by the time lie reached the hos pital. He wa still conscious, however, and asked where ard bow he was hit. The wound was cleaned out and ac cording to the attending pin icians, unless some complication sets i», his ehaneeK for recovery are very good. H-A Band Concert Saturday Eve. •Due to the 'act that Donald Hunter sprained his shoulder luesdav even ing, ciie Boy Scout bard, in which ho is drummer, postponed wheir band con cert until Saturday evening. Thir will be the last concert of the season and a good iowd should be out to hear it. The bov? have made, a good showing during the sumtrior and on Wednesday evenings the streets have been lined with cars, some of which came quite a ways to hear the concert. As the city council ha.- been author ized to vote ii special levy each year, band conceits during the summer months are assured, which will be ap preciated by the public. A city the size of Milbnnk cannot afford to be without a band ar.d everything pos sible should bo done to encourage the boys to stick together. The band has been contracted for and will appear afternoons and even inps during the fair. H-A Mr. and Mrs. Julius struck Emprmde gmotc to Clear l^ake then over Minnesota.

St 9th YOU'LL LIKE MILBANK METROPOLIS OF THE ggFAMOUii •STONE VALLEY Consolidated April 1890 ill IN READINESS FOR FAIR TO GPti\ NEXT WES. 1 he (J ant County Fair opens nerl Tuesday, with a program of enter tainment and exhibits which will un doubtedly be the best that has ever been offered to fair patrons. The pro gram, which is printed in this issue, show* lhat the fair committees have been busy during the last few weeks arranging entertainments which will make the day lively for you. Nothing" has been left undone that was possi ble to do and it is now up to the residents fcf the county to do their share by giving their support to it. The cash prize drawings each day will create a great deal of excite ment, as eaeh ticketholder will have an e,ual chance to win the $10 prize This has been changed from the for mer plan of three prizes and the one prize each hour will be given instead. As there is a drawing each hour after two o'clock, many will receive prizes during the four days. There will be free band concerts by the Milbank Boy Scout Band, free' performances by the Fritchies and Mc Curie Trio which will be well worth eondng to see, base ball games each afternoon and an immense bowery dance each evening. With this pro gram 41 here is no one who will not find plenty of entertainment. Besides there will be lots of booths where you can win if you are lucky, eat if you are hungry, drink if you are thirsty, or buy novelties for those who were un able to come. Everything will be there to entertain you, your friends will be there and you can not afford to miss it. The two big features of the fair will undoubtedly be the Fying Circus which will show Wednesday afternoon :rid the fire works display Wednesday and Friday evenings. The Flying cir cus is one of the best in the North west and will have something new to show. The fireworks displays are by far the largest that have ever .been shown here and will be well worth coming miles to see. The admission will be only 50 cent for day and 35 for evening, wish the children at 25 cents. At a reccnt meeting of t&e Board of Directors of the Grant County Fair Association it was decided to increase the amount of premium money for the poultry exhibits. In the premium list as originally pi*inted premiums would be given only on trios or a pen con sisting of a cock and two hens. Such, a" classification it was thought would limit the fair to such a few exhibits v that if was decided to make the pre miums cover cockerels and pullets also. All breeds of poultry in the "Stan dard" are included in the show and e»iual premiums will be given to all on i-lie bads of first prize cock bird, first prize hen, first prize cockerel and first prize pullet. Farmers of Grant county should pay more attention to iheir flock and should be rising some standard breed of chickens. The day of the mongrel hen ha4- passed and W:th the prevail ing me we should raise the breed oT chicken* "hat will giv us the most eggs and the most meat for the mon ey.
