The game of the junior nines of Lang
don and Cavalier, crossing bats on the
home diamond, was the event in local1
base ball oiroles yesterday afternoon.
The junior ball teams of Milton and
Park Biver played a game at the latter
plaee last week during the fair. The
game is reported as breaking up in a row
at the close of the fifth innings when the
score was 5 to 5.
Pembina had fenced in a ball park and
will make a bid to have several of the
league teams play over there this sum
mer. By the time another year rolls
around the old town may be looked to
come into the game a few herself.
Joe Flanagan, the well known Milton
twirler. has evidently signed with Cava
lier for the balance of the season. Any
way he played with that team in its game
against Qrand Forks at Park Biver dur
ing the fair last week and the News in its
report of the game says: "The general
impressions that is Cavalier would have
won had not Joe Flanagan made a few
costly errors."
Tomorrow afternoon, those who are
still in the oity, resting up after the
strenuous efforts of to-day's celebration
will have an opportunity of attending
the third league ball game played by the
locals on the home ground this seasqn
The visiting team comes from Larimore
and in a game played with Devils Lake
last Saturday lest only by one ran, the
ssore being 6 to 4. Everything indicates
that it will he a game for year life.

Milton's league ball game with
Larimore the other day Pitcher Wiggs
is credited with having made the longest
hit ever made on the Milton grounds.
Of oourse it was a home run. That roan

Langdon's percentage in the soore of

the same as Langdon's
until it oame to its third game. We play
game number three tomorrow and will
change the figures.
Well, well, that was only another of
those "practice" games that Langdon
played Monday with Milton at Osna
brock. Wiggs is a whirlwind all right
but why was he released, perhaps he isn't
reliable? He had quite a "streak" on
Monday. Seven to nothing isn't exactly
what our boys figured oa when they went
down there. Still they got 3 hits off of
Wiggs' delivery so they must have found
him. Don't forget that Langdon's
south-paw, Brenna, struck out six of the
Milton men, one of them being Milton's
big idol, Wiggs. Another consolation
that helps some, that 8100 purse was cut
in two and of oourse that helps some.
All the arrangements have been per
fected with the exception of setting the
date for a ball game that promises a bush
el of fun and amusement. The contes
tants are the inmates of the Gt. Northern
and Columbia hotels. Seven of Lang
don'e regular league team are registered
at the Gt. Northern and three at the
Columbia. In the proposed game
an agreement has been reached
that eaoh team shall have the
right to use one of the catchers, but
the pitcher mast be "green/' or else he
can't do business. It is also agreed that
the number of league players on either
side eligible to infield positions is limited
to three, this rule being adopted in order
to develop "home talent." E. O. Dedrick
is billed to play second base for the
Columbia squad and Doo Sample will be
on short. The rest of the players have
not yet been signed, but some of the fol
lowing will probably be seen with their
hands painted up next week. His honor

Friday's game with Cavalier was the
second league contest in which the
locals have participated this season and
resulted in the defeat of the visitors by a
score of 9 to 6. In view of the fact that
it was the Cavalier team that lately
turned the tables on the erstwhile
pennant winners frem Devils Lake and
sines then have played a tie game with
Milton the honor achieved was all the
greater- Cavalier is one of the reputed
strongest ball teams in the state, bm in
ftve of the nine innings played had to
retire without scoring a run. The only
feature in the game th^t could be
criticised was the large scores piled up
in the first and fourth innings, in other
respeets it was by all odds the best
game of ball that has ever been played
in the city. At the beginning it was
hard to tell just how the game would
result and some of the local sports bet
on Cavalier but were glad enough to
hedge after the fourth innings had been
played. The score shows the game by
points as follows:
A petition, asking that the Lakota
branch of the Great Northern be extend
ed from Lunde, through the south west
ern corner of Cavalier county to the
international boundary line this summer,
already contains the names of about five
hundred farmers who would be greatly
benefitted by the extension and would
give it their entire patronage. The

peot of a bumper crop this year makes a
railroad through there a necessity, and
the demand for it is becoming very pres
sing. The signers of the petition have in
all about 35,000 acres under cultivation.
This acreage, computed at 15 bushels per
acre, makes a crop of 525,000 bushels.
There are still a number of farmers,
mostly across the county line in range 69,
who have not yet signed they will add
no less than 4,000 acres to the foregoing
list, which means 50 or 60 thousand
bushels more to be marketed. The dis.
tanoes of the petitioners from the market
at the present time ranges from 18 to 30
miles. It was with difficulty that the
half crop of last year was handled—and
this year, with increased acreage and a
full crop, it will be impossible to handle
it under the present conditions without a
terrible loss. The petition, as arranged,
shows up the rioh resources of the "track
less region" better than could be done in
any other way and is the best argument
that could be placed before the railway'
officials. Looking at the matter as a
purely business proposition it seems to
us that both the farmers—and the
Almighty—are offering Mr. Hill a very
handsome thing.
