BASE BALL.

since our last issue, the base ball
lovers have had about all of that kind
of sport they could digest. Last FRI
day the Humboldt MarOOns came up
to our city and played hot game
too hot for any. use, as far as our boys
were concerned. From all reports it
was Harris "day off" for he was
knocked clear out of the box and
Albert RACER (Pomp) filled the place
admirably. The game was very tire
some to the lola spectators for the
reason that at the end of the ninth
inning the score stood Is to Il in favor
of Humboldt.
Saturday the Blues went down TO
Humboldt and played one of the most
closely contested games Of the season.
At the end of eleventh inning the
score stood 5 to 5, and decision of
the umpire which was not favorable
to Humboldt caused an uproar and
the production of rotten eggs and
clubs brought the game to close.
The boys say they were treated
shamefully, but there is always two
sides to these stories, so we will let
those who know judge for themselves.
Monday, in company with about 90
lola people, the Blues went to Cha
mute and played game. Of course,
they lost the game, as they expected
to do, but they came home singing
praises for the excellent treatment
they received at the hands of the ball
managers and the people. The Cha
mute club is coming up here next
Monday; let us treat them as we'll as
they did US.
The Hartford Reds came over Tues
day to play series of three games
here, but their train stopped most toe
long at Piqua, and when they got
here they were not in good playing
trim and our boys beat them easy
with a score of 20 to 5. Wednesday
however, they picked up courage and
put their best pitcher in the box and
won the game. 1t was not on account
of poor playing that our boys lost, fol
Harris pitched fine game, but they
were unable to bunch their hits. The
score stood 10 to 3 in Hartford's favor
The game yesterday was presided
over by "Pomp," and as we go to
press too early to report the result,
we are unable to give the score.

OBITUARY.

Mary c. Everheart was born in
Northumberland county, Pennsylvan-
ia, March q, 1887. Removed FROM
there to Ohio with her parents when
but child. There she grew up and
was married to John T. Everheart,
April q, 1856. They removed from
there to Illinois in 1864 and from
there to Kansas in 1871, locating at
lola where she made her home until
the Death Angel called her, Aug. 3,
1896. She was converted to Christ in
the 18th year of her age and identified
herself with the people of God. To
her christian faithfulness and integrity
her friends all agree that it could not
be questioned. She united with the
First Baptist church about three
years since, and the writer was per-
mitted to "bury her with Christ in
baptism" and give her the hand of
( fellowship, although she had profess
ed Christ when she was only seven
teen years Of age and her membership
being with the NJ. E. church until
the time when she united with us.
She was faithful to her covenant and
departed this life in the triumph of a
living faith. May Gods grace and
peace be with the bereaved ones.

The testimonials in behalf of Hoods
SarsaparilIa are not only from people
who cannot afford costly professional
treatment but they come also from
persons in official stations. Nor is
Hoods Sarsaparilla praised only by
those who have learned in their own
experience of its wonderful curative
powers, but men of the highest intel
ligence and sOundest judgment are
ready to speak in its favor. His Ex-
cellency William G RenfrOw, Cover
nor OF Oklahoma, in recent volun-
tary letter, writes us: "FrOm it's gen.
eral reputation, know of none that L
would prefer to Hoods Sarsaparilla if
we should need blood purifier or

COUNTY TICKET.
THE WORK WELL DONE.

The Republican state convention
ahas convened, completed its work and
adjourned, and it didn't take five or
six DAYS of wrangling and fighting
and bitter words to do it. 1t was
convention of peace, harmony and
enthusiasm, and the ticket nominated

honest, Intelligent man in the state OF
Kansas. The ticket nominated is as
follows: Governor, f. \. Morrill,, of
Brown county; lieutenant governor,
Harry E. RichteE, of Morris county;
secretary of state, w. c. Edwards, of
Pawnee county; state treasurer, Otis
L. Anterior, of Russell county; attOr-
ney general, Frank B. Dawes, of Clay
county; state auditor George E. Cole,
of Crawford county; congressman-at-
large, Richard w. Blue, of Linn
county; superintendent of public in
struction, Z. Stanley, of Douglass
county.
And the above is the ticket that
will bs- elected on the Sd day of next
November. They are all good men,
and sll but two of them have served
us tive years, and we know who they
are. The two new men are as good
men as there is in the state, and will
make good officers.

HOW CLARA WEIGH SAW MKINLEY.

Just now, when thousands of men,

not be malapropOs. Wewere discuss
ing Mckinley at the dinner table

like to see Mckinley"
"Have you never seen him?" re-

more provoked than she was that day.
We were standing outside the taber-
nacle; we couldn't get seats-trying
to see and hear. But directly in
front of us stood girl in big sleeves,
who evidently did not care to do
either. She used her opera glass
freely searching for her friends in the
audience, and her wide sleeves and
long tongue kept up constant COM
motion. At last, in desperation,
Clara said, 'I'lI fix herp Then taking
a pin she fastened the sleeves to the
back of the waist. The owner of the
sleeves, making a frantic effort to
flourish her arms. was greatly in
censed, and uttered an exclamation
that was not altogether elegant.
Clara didn't care. however, for said
she, 'T've seen Mckinley, anyway y"
