John Pilkington.
For Co. Supt. of Public Instruction
I hereby announce my candidacy
for re-election to tho office of County
Superintendent of Public Instruction
of Box Butte county, subject to the

For County Clerk
I hereby announce myself as a can
didate for re-election to the office of
County Clerk of Box Butte county,
subject to the decision of the Repub
lican voters at the primary election to
be held Aug.i7,og, W. C. Mounts.
Owing, we suppose, to the populari
ty of the present incumbent of the
office of county clerk, he has no oppo
sition in his candidacy for re-election,
but still he shows his courtesy tp the
voters as well as the local papers by
publishing his announcement- V. O.
Mounts has a host of friends in Box
Butte county, and aify candidate
against him would be up against a
hard proposition.
Poor old Spain, in the throes of a
revolution which threatens to sound
tho death knell of its monarchial form
of government, is prominent in the
world's news just now. The young
King Alfonso is confronted for the first
time in his life with a serious situation,
well calculated to put his powers as a
ruler to a sev-re test. The domestic
trouble has been caused by the Moor
ish war. Thepeople cousider that
enterprise merely a political affair
based upon private mining concessions.
They did not want war but they had it
forced upon them. Now they have
turned and are snarling at the throat
of their Boy King. It may require the
intervention of the great powers to
keep Alfonso on his throne.
The Associated Press seems to have
let tho cat out ol the bag- In a dis
patch from Washington it says:
President Tnft, according to those
who have talked most intimately with
him, docs not suffer the delusion that
revision of tho tariff downward is going
to bring reduced prices or would be of
immediate benefit to the much talked
about "ultimate consumer". Instead
of a reduction, it is declared there will
bo actual increases during tho coming
year on many of tho necessaries of life,
including wearing npparcl.
It is freely admitted then that the
"ultimate consumer" is going to get it
in the neck, just as has been apparent
right along to all but the blind. It is
a curious kind of "revision downward"
that brings "actual increases on many
of the necessaries of life."
Wo heartily agree with Senator
Gore's view that "there are some per
sons in tho democratic party -who
"ought to be iu the republican party and
some persons in the republican party
who sho'uld bo in the democratic par
ty". Tho 12 anti-Cannon republicans
from Kansas and Iowa in the house
and such republican senators as La
Toilette, Cummins, Dollivcr, Nelson
and Beveridgo were to all intents and
purposes democrats in tho late fight
against plutocracy and privilege, while
tho 18 so-called democratic senators
who assisted Senator Aldrich in fasten
ing his monstrous tariff bill upon the
country wpro consistent opponents of
democratic principles. Senatar Gore
says that ho "would rather sec a good
republican in congress than a bad dem
ocrat" Those are our sentiments, and
the sentiments expressed in the plat
form adopted by the recent democratic
state convention of Nebraska.

ALASKA WHEAT GROWS IN IOWA
Yield Doubled In Experiment at Cher
okee State Hospital.
Des Mcdnes, Aug. 3. Alaska wheat,
claimed to produce 250 bushels an
acre, will grow In Iowa and It will
produco twlco as much per aero as
the Iowa wheat.
Such Is the result of an experiment
tried nt tho Cherokee state hospital,
and John Cownto of tho state board
of control brought back samples of
tho Canadian product which show that
it will yield probably fifty bushols an
acre, or twlco tho usual amount har
vested from ono aero of Iowa soil.
Tho Bpoclmens brought back by Mr.
Cownte nro blighted, however, duo to
the wet weather, which shows that
tho Canadian product is not so hardy
as tho Huwkeye wheat. Tho heads
are twice as large as that of the Iowa
grain
1 ho seeds for the whoat were given
to the board for experiment by tho
Noola Elevator company of Chicago.
Tho wheat was taken to the northorn
part of tho state.

BASEBALL JOKERS,
Diamond Stars Who Amuse Fans
by Jest and Antics.
NICK ALTROCH'S MANY STUNTS
Clever 8outhpw Twlrler Dellgh.o In
Mimicking Hugh Jennings Is Alto
Good at Repartee "Germany" Schae
fer and Rube Waddell Entertaining.
BuKcbull playerH who can make the
crowd laugh are nlwitys popular with
the fuim. True, n bnll player llrst
jumps Into the limelight through abil
ity. Still, many n poor plnyer has be
comt' n big favorite through his power
to get buck nt the crowd and pull off
stunts that amuse.
Perhaps no players on the American
league elr?ult receive more attention
from the fans than "Germany" Scfine
for of Detroit. Rube Waddell of Si
LouU or N'lck Altrock of ViHulnMion.
Tho baseball fans go to the bail
game for enjoyment, nnd. while they
get much of it from .seeing a brilliant
ly played game, yet these players,
who mix n little comedy In with the
serious roles, nro always held In high
favor. Often the fn poUe fun at
them, spring antiquated Jokes nt their
expense and in general nt least try
to hold them up to ridicule, but when
asked for an opinion on the player lu
question they always have some good
word to offer.
When Manager Hughey Jennings of
the Detroit team Introduced bis now
famous Innovations In the coaching de
partment of the game the funs simply
went wild ovor the Tiger leader The
rooters laughed, the players were
amused, mid the name of Jennings
was on the sport page of every dally
throughout the season.
Great as was the hit made by Jen
nings by his unique barking on the
lines, even greater was the hit scored
by Nick Altrock und "Germany"
Scbnefer In their Imitation of Jennings
leading his team to victory. Laughter
is always highly contagious when
either Nick or "Germuny" go out on
the Hues.
Whose Imitation was really the best
is a question. Altrock appeared to have
the leg motion down better than
Schaefer. but Gcrmnny" bad It on
Nick In the whistling line. As a whis
tler Nick wasn't howling success.
He would put his lingers to his mouth
n la Jennings, but the shrill nol.se re
fused to come forth. The fans soou
discovered this fact, uud It was not
long before several rooters would will
ingly supply tho whistle Just as soon
ns Nick made uny motion to place his
Augers to his mouth.
Not only can Altrock Imitate Jen
nings as a couchcr, but he Is able to
put on an exhibition of play at first
base that would make you think It was
IIul Chuse in action. He can also
manipulate the ball In n way that
would do eit'uit to many a vaudeville
Juggler who Is drawing u fat salary.
During practice It Is not an unusual
thing for Altrock to send the regular
first baseman to the bench and don

EDDIE COLLINS, STAR 1NFIELDKH OF TUB
1'HILADKLltllIA ATHLETICS.
Collins is the present hitting king or the
American league and holds tho post of
honor with a mark or .3Q7.J
his glove. Ills appearance at the Ini
tial sack Is always greeted with cheers,
and before ho bus received four or live
throws be hus the worst chronic dys
peptic lu the crowd In good humor.
His Imitation of Jennings always
comes during the game, and he Is es
pecially Interesting when Washington
Is playing Detroit, as It otters a chance
for comparison.
Altrock Is not lacking Iu repartee,
either, and he gets off mauy a funny
one at the expense of the crowd.
One day In St. Louis Nick made it
quite embarrassing for n smart young
man who Insisted on offering advice
to the players, much to the chagrin of
the young lady who accompanied him.
Now. Nick Isn't the haudsomest fel
low In the world, but the critics nl
ways refer to the clever southpaw as
'Handsome Nick."'
The day previous Altrock had been
worklug In great stylo nnd had blanked
St. Louis In n good game. When he
walked past the grand stund he did
so lu much the manner of the hero In
x "meller drummer." Most of the fans
l.v.igbca. for they knew It wns one of
N-Vs ways of kidding the crowd.
T S 'A
l 9
With chest Inflated nnd head high In
the air Nick paraded In front of the
grand Btnud to the bench.
Most of the crowd, remembering
Nick's performance, enjoyed the pa
rade with much glee, but the young
man lu question failed to appreciate
the humor of the situation. As Nick
passed by him the young man in a
most sarcastic tone remarked:
"So you're the pitcher they call
Uandsomo Nick? "
' Without paying any attention as to
where the remark came from Nick
(Imply replied In n highly effeminate
tone:
"Jealous, Jealous, jealous."
That quashed the young man for the
rest of the afternoon.
"Germany" Scbnefer Is chock full of
humor, nnd much of it is the good
kind. He doesn't confine his wit to the
fnns In particular, but hands It out
to the players as well.
One day last year Schaefer was hav
ing n particularly hard time doing
anything with Cy Young's delivery.
He hud whiffed n couple of times nnd
went out once on n pop fly. His fourth
attempt was n weak roller to the pitch
er. After being thrown out at first
base he walked over to third to re
lieve the coacher.
"What's the matter, Schaefer? Did
you forget to go to bed lust night or
neglect to use some eye water on
those'dlm lumpsV"
"Neither," replied the ever ready
Teuton; "n fellow tipped me off be
fore the game that you had made a
bet that I would make four hits, and
since you looked like n piker to me 1
decided to give you the double cross."
Evidently the man had mado somo
bet on Schaefer and failed to cash,
for the remark caused much merri
ment among those who were sitting
near him.
A million and one stories could be
relnted nnd have been told about the
famous Rube Waddell. There Isn't
anything he hasn't done In any line,
nnd renlly there Isn't nnythlng he Isn't
willing to try.
A stranger nt n big league game al
ways wants to know first of all which
member of the St. Louis team Is Wad
dell. When pnssengers walk through
a car In which the Browns aro travel
ing every one wants a glimpse nt tho
"Rube." Guests at the hotel where
tho St. Louis team Is stopping are al
ways on the lookout for Wnddell nnd
constantly watching his antics.
Baseball Is n serious proposition nil
the way. but no amusement enter
prise ever meets with any great suc
cess unless a bit of humor is mixed
In with the heavy stuff. The humor
of the diamond Is limited. Most of the
players use the same old line of talk
that was doing duty before tho war.
and It would help the game quite a
little If there were n few more Schaef
ers. Waddells, Altrocks and Lathams.
