The ball game of yesterday was
the game ofa life time. Zanesville
wearing crown Of four straight
victories over the Lancaster Colts,
came down to US with no more idea
Of meeting Waterloo than any
thing in the world. Lancaster had
told them about us. Pursell had
said in his paper that GAINESVILLE
wouldn't do thing" to Logan
which literally was very true. We
had Bright in the box, and he
worked away like giant. On The
ninth inning the game stood 2 to 2.
and the tenth decided it 8 to 2 in
favor Of Logan. The GAINESVILLE
boys say we can take six such men
and beat Lancaster easy. This is
what Purseli thinks of the Zanes.
vile team in his Wednesday and
Thursday issues after the four vic,
tories againsts the Colts: (Wednes.
day, after the game of 10 to 4 in
favor OF ZanesviIIe) tive will try
'em again today and IL we have an-
other such exhibition we will in.
sist hereafter on our fellows keep
ing in their class and play such
clubs as Logan, Stoutsville, Greasy
Ridge and Poverty slope. We
fear that we are no longer In il
with such clubs as GAINESVILLE. We
fear we do not trot in that class --
We are sorry for poor Logan. The
haweaters will be hunting Carbon
Hill and GibetOwn after the Buck
shoes use them up on Thursday"
(Thurday's issue) awe have no
idea that we could beat Zinesville
and we don't think anyone ought
to have the gall to imagine such a
thing. But for amatures, we real
ly think we did remarkably we'll.
The GAINESVILLE boys are skilled
professional players. They never
get excited or loose their heads.
They play an almost errorless
game. They played with the cool.
ness and ease that Is born In conf
lence. They felt assured from the
start that they would win, they |
never for one moment felt alarmed
rs to the outcome. They played
10 win and did win."
Pursell speaks right OF the
"Buckshoes". They |
play good ball, but Logan plays
better. Pursell saw the game here
yesterday, and we hope to see him
admit our superiority. The Lam
,aster club let Beck go this week,
md Beck was glad OF it. If
Charley has any body to play with

,ame by themselves. They must
rave somebody 10 support them.

M. NJ. Parker Lodge of Masons asking that
the association send delegates to a meet
irg to discuss the plan of getting for North

John L. Sullivan is posted on topics other

something was said about a man making

There's a good deal of rot In all this talk

BISMARCK AT EIGHTY-ONE.
Odd Bits of HumOr and "Reminiscences
From FriedrichSruh.

From the New York Sun.
Bismarck receives comparatively few
strangers now, and consequently the vast
number of speeches and interviews which
in former years came from Friedrichsruh
has dwindled to only an occasional remark
or story. The German purveyor of Bis
