Joe Collins made his first appear ance in the game this year and the table shows that he was very nnicti in the game, in fact, Joe is playing a better and faster game than last year. Grant, the new southpaw, made his first appearance and he will do, majc ing ten strikeouts an dholding the heavy hitters from Halliday to six hits. He has made good and has won a place in the hearts of the fans. Farmer, for the visitors, pitched a nice game, but errors .back of him at critical times were disastrous. "A good deal of wranj/ing was in dulged in over decisions of the um pires, who were very rank in a great number of the decisions given, one side getting about as much of it as the other. At the beginning of the fifth in ning L. Wasem, the catcher for the visitors, received a pitched ball on his ungloved hand, which split the fleshy part of his haand between the first finger and thumb, making a bad wound. At this point Ellis went in to catch and Gardner went to center field. Second Game. Halliday— AB PO A E M. Pippen, lb 4 0 1 9 0 Ellis, 4 0 0 5 0 J.

Time, 1:55. Umpires, Wlmmer and Ed wards attendance, 1400. NOTES—BY "WIN." It was by far the most exciting game that has ,'jeen pulled off on the local diamond this year and the roar of the big .bunch of fans could have been heard down town if one had been listening. The grandstand and bleachers were packed and cars were out around both foul lines. Goldie was certainly on the grounds with the goods and delivered them in fine shape three hits werp made off him and two of these were of the very scratchy order. Halliday could not get next, to him at all and there „yus not a minute of the play that his head was not working. His ex hibition of pitching in this game was of the very best. Little Roth, at second, had live chances and some of them were of the sensational order, and hie accept ed every one of them without a skip. He played gilt-edged ball all the time. Dahm9»~at third, also put up a sen sational game and the error charged to liim was excusable he just went after everything that came his way. Every one fthe boys were out to win the game and there was noth ing to it but to let them have it. Gardner pitche da good game, had gilt-edged support back of him all the time and pulled himself out of sev eral very bad holes. Hall, at second* 'for the visitors, was the bright light and made a number of very 'brilliant plays. How the scores were made: Pike batted a hot one down to short, which Robinson booted Dahms hit a slow one to J. Robinson at third, which he fumbled Collins ma/) a clean single scoring Pike and advancing Dahms to third: Shanley wentout a sac rifice fly to Farmer and Dahms neat the ball in f| the second score, Col lins going to third on the play Frankenhoff went out on a grounder to F. Robinson, who threw him out at first Williams then slammed out a two-bagger and scored Collins. Af ter this everything was of the one, two, three order. But one of the vis itors reached the third station and but one reached second. They're going to fine players in the American Association $25 for Massing umpires. But what player in the A. A. has $25? Comiskey and Cap Anson and a few othet old timers are going to play 'ball at Chicago in July. Ought to be a good chance for Joe Cantillon to pick up some recruits. Seven St. Louis Drowns are on the sick or injure) list. No wonder Viehler Jones is a perpetual grouch. Four Brickley brothers have joined the colors. If the quartet can pull on the kaiser what one of them did on Yale the war won't last long. What is to become of the minors? asks an exchange. We'll bite, what is to become of them. Jess Willard says he won't fight un til fall. Jess always thinks several months ahead in refusing to fight, either in the ring or in the army. Brooklyn has released Wheezer Dell. Taking the wheeze out of wheezer, as it were. Having had a race horse named altej him, Omar Khayyam has be come famous. Yanks have signed Pitcher Lifer. Must be tough to be a lifer on that clu'b. Champion Willard wins a court fight —headline. About the only kind he can be herded into nowadays. Jack Barry says he was hit. 23 times by pitched balls last season, but doesn't believe in the beanball. Jack's optimism is admirable, anyway. HO HUM. July 12—"I am going to resign."— —John Tener.

J., with the news that he had won the bicycle championship of the world. He took with him the first money he li^d ever won on the board track. ^A few days ago he, lost his.jltle to ftr£|pnth* Qf',i20{ then went ^otit and brok'4 .-jiA lafccord for He is Frank Kramer, a champion among champions—a man who for 1C. years defended his title against all comers and in that time earned over $200,000 at a game where winnings are small as sport winnings go. To win this meant that he worked hard at his profession all of the time. He still has the money. This means that he has saved his accumulations. Together they mean the rule of success, clean living, economy and hard work. Kramers' rules for success are worth remembering. They are worth while alike to the athlete, to the busi ness man or to the young jnan just getting his start. Go to bed early and rise early, get plenty of sleep, eat regularly of wholesome food, are the rules which Kramer has always fol lowed. Do not. dissipate. Booze and body building don't make good bedfellows, neither do booze and business. When Arthur Spencer, the Toronto youth, won the championship Kramer A Washington recently lost a game to Detroit because of a close decision which gave Cobb a base on ball. O'Loughlin was the umpire. Griffith met O'Loughlin and his partner after the game. "You two highwaymen looked fine in there today?" said the Nationals' manager. "What's the matter, Griff?" asked "Silk." "That third strike you missed on Cobb cost us the game, that's alb" Dea Moines, Ia„ July 21.—Clark Griffith, manager of the Washington Americans, has his eye on seeral local Western league players. He has notified Tom Fairweather that he is going to "look them over" person ally soon. Detroit, July 21.—Howard" Ehmke, the tall twirler of the Detroit Ameri cans, is now considered the nemesis of the Boston club. Ehmke has beat en the world's .champions three times this season and in these gabes, his opponents have collected but one run. Wausau, Wis., July 23.—The 18th annual Wisconsin state trapshooters tournament, opening here yesterday for a three days' shoot, promises to outclass any previous tournament of this organization. Indications point to a record entry of amateurs, profes sionals and women shots. More than $1,400 in prizes will he awarded. The tournament will terminate on July 24, when Wisconsin amateur marhsmen will compete for the posi tion of winner or runner-up, Entitling entry in the grand American handicap to be held at Chicago on Aug. 20-24. Racine, Wis., July 23.—Joe Burman, the Chicago bantam, who won fame and fortune in eastern rings, made his first appearance before his "home folks today when he met George Thompson, the Pacific coast cham pion, in a 10-round contest. Special trains will bring a big crowd of Chica goans. Thompson, who is. fast and scientific, received most of his ring schooling under the direction of Willie Ritchie, the former lightweight cham pion. St. Louis, Mo., July 33.—Eighteen years after his first connection with the St. Louis Nationals, Bobby Wal lace, the veteran infielder, i» again a memlber of the club as a utility player. Branch Rickey, president of the Cardinals, believes that Wallace will be a valuable asset. Wallace recently played in the Western league and his throwing and fielding is as speedy as ever. It is probable that he will at tempt to teach Hornsby some of the finer tricks about playing shortstop. 1 wag BISMARCK DAILY TRIBUNE Scoop's Water Judgment Is Bad CHAMPION FOR SIXTEEN YEARS KROMJBR PROVES VALUE OF CLEAN LIVING IN ATHLETICS AND BUSINESS Av-V.o '/wteatW'.

And Griff's friends say he hates to lose an argument about as much as he d',ilikes to drop a ball game. Wallace, in his prime, was regarded as one of tl^e greatest fielding short stops in the game. He is past 40 years old. Minneapolis, Minn., July 23—Johnny Tillman, a Minneapolis welterweight, is teaching boxing to the student offi cers attending the training camp at Ft. Snelling. Tillman volunteered his services and expects to devote one night each week dealing out left l)ooks and uppercuts to the embryo officers. St. Louis, 'Mo„ July 23.—Fielder Jones, manager of the St. Louis Amer icans, considers George Sisler, his youthful first base star, the "perfect ball player." "Sisler can do anything Cobb or Speaker or any other player fcatf dd','' Jones said. "He can hit as fa'r"1as anybody, field as fast as anybody, and is a dash of lightning on the 'bases. What more can you add?" They say that Sisler is the most modest player in either major league. He neither smokes, drinks or chews. Sisler is a star with the bat, but injured his thumb tagging a player a few weeks ago and the injury was so painful that he had difficulty in grip ping the club. But with the sprain en tirely healed, Sisler expects to be clubbing his way up near the top of the American league list of hitters. Milwaukee, Wis., July 23.—'Baseball players always give umpires the "worst of it" on close plays in the opinion of Williamj Friel, manager of the Milwaukee clu'b of the American association. F.-iel was a player for years, then a manager and umpire. Since his experience as an umpire, Friel said he became aware of a few things he didn't know existed in the old days. "It's against the rules for a baseball player to be fair with an umpire," Friel explained. "A player doesn't want to know that an umpire wa3 right he doesn't want the public to know it either." "After 1 became manager of the Milwaukee club, a friend wrote me, asking if I was going to jump on the umpire. I told him it would be as tough for me to, go through a ball game without yelping at the umpire as it would be for George Cohan to go through a play without waving the American flag. "I am going to t^ake all I can get on the ball field. It puts life into the game to roar a bit\even though the umpire is absolutely right." Naturally. "Motorists never have a good word to say for pedestrians." "Of course not It is the nature of things for them to be continually run ning pedestrians down."

Franklin told us how to outwit the beef trust, save money, improve our health and enrich the brain all at one stroke. As nobody else could possibly tell it so well as Ben himself. I quote him, writes Girani in the Philadelphia Ledger. "When about sixteen years of age I happened to meet with a book, written by one Tryon, recommending a veget able diet. I determined to go into it. My brother, being yet unmarried, did not keep house, but boarded himself and his apprentices in another family. "My refusing to eat flesh occasioned an inconvenience., and I was frequently chid for my singularity. 1 made my self acquainted with -Tr-yon's manner of preparing! some of Uiis dishes, such as boiling potatoes of rice, making hasty pudding and a few others, and then proposed to my brother that if he would give me weekly half the money he paid for my hoard, I would hoard myself. He instantly agreed to it, and I presently found that I could save half what he paid me. "This was an additional fund for (he buying of hooks, but I had anoth er advantage in it. I made the greater progress from fhat greater clearness of head and quicker apprehension which generally attend temperance in bating and drinking." And he kept on thinking so clearly that he was one of the most active creators of the constitution of the Uuited States when he was eighty-one years old. SUPERSTITIONS OF THE MOON Luck Depends Upon Various Lunar Stages, According to Many Popular Beliefs. It Is considered unlucky to see the aew moon for the first time through ,'lass. To see it outdoors over the eft shoulder is lucky over the right shoulder is unlucky. Letters asking a favor should be vr|tten in the full of the moon. In fact, the full of the moon is lucky for ill events. A birth or marriage in a full inoon is indicative of prosperity. It's considered unlucky to have the eyelashes cut during the wane of the noon. They will not grow well, but will grow awry and fall out. To have them grow long they should be cut vvhile the moon Is on the increase. Animals born when the moon is crescent-shaped will be weak and short lived those born at the full of the moon will be strong and long-lived. Trees are thought likely to decay when cut during a waning moon. The aacon of a hog killed in ia waning noon is also said to waste much In the cooking. .•s£ VTAINT FAR, 00TRRM VMS SNTtWr DWN!

But some few are al leged to have suffered, and among them St. Alhaji was first.

I'ages of magazine and columns of newspaper space have been devoted to graphic and vivid, If not lurid, descrip tions of the tornado in action, s£ya the Kansas City Star. But William, Soda, a farmer who never "writ" a line of literature in his life, expressed it all in single short paragraph, in a per fectly clear and understandable way, when he was asked by a reporter about the twister that had made a complete wreck of his home: "How long did the storm last?" "Feller," he replied, "I don't believe she worked more than two minutes, but while she worked she worked like the devil." Any American can get that without a diagram. No Hurry.
