faith in her future. have some friends
out west who have apparently struck it
rich and are endeavoring to induce me to
come out there, but found upon investi.
CATION that they are doing no better than
we are doing here, and l have no idea of
deserting Bismarck.

county,: have quit the farming business
altogether and have came to the capital

Joe Fox: It seems to me that Jack
Waldon and Sam Whitney are having il
all their own way in the Fourth of July
foot race, ana that 1 have no voice in the
controversy. But am liable to fool 'em
all vet. think I am co nsiderably heavier
than any of my prospective contestants
but that does not cut any figure. I was

have entered, and am sanguine of winning
| this'One. ~
Louis Westhauser: am happy now be
cause my boy is entirely out Of danger
and is on the sure road to recovery. He
wanted to be out to. day, but the physicians
thought it best that he should stay in. He

ceived many compliments for my excellent
work on the diamond. and / certainly did
the best could. It is true that I had an
injured finger, but then knew we had to
play ball that day to win and was de.
termined to keep up my end.
I. G. DE Graf: My shoe store is now
located at the corner Of Main and Fourth
streets since the fire, and as I think it is d
more eligible location, l will probably
make it my permanent headquarters.

We've got ainumber of new members in
the hose company and we are testing their
running qualities every evening. OF course
those who are unable to keep UP with the

Chicago tomorrow for short visit, and /

during her absence, of course.
Manager Falconer Of the Bismarck Base
Ball club: have been writing to Helena
to see what arrangements I can make in
regard to the club going up there on the
fourth Of July, but don't you think It would
be better scheme to keep our club at
home on that day and havee some crack
team come up and play usP The cele-
bration will not be complete here without
. good game, and surely we can give it. /
have been told by people who ought to
know that we have the finest base ball
