BASE BALL.
Cove City VS.. Wa-Keeney.

Quite little interest was man
ifested in the promised game of
base ball which occurred on the
Wa-Keenev diamond last Thurs
day between the home nine and
the Cove City team.
Many supposed the visitors
would not put in an appearance
on account of the rain of the pre-
vious night and morning. but
they were out for a game and de-
termined to win. They drove
over from Cove. arriving about 9
a. m.
The clouds and gloom of the
morning forwarned our home peO-
pie of the defeat which was in
store for them. Nothing daunt
ed they took the field with w.
Inscho in the box. The visitors
knocked buff" all around the
commons and easily pounded out
nine runs before they were re-
tired.
Wa-Keeney went to the bat
and got ''onto" the leather sphere
to the tune of four runs before
they were retired.
Exchanging Deatrick for Buff
(COchin) our boys gave the visi-
tors goose egg on the next half
shell and crossed the home plate
five trips during their next turn
at the bat. thereby tieing the
score.
This went so well the visitors
took another egg as soon as it
could be prepared for them and
d gave our boys one run in return
: the favor.
After the fourth inning the Cove
~ people seemed to loose appetite
an albuminous diet and began to
aighten Jake'S curves in great
ape. He was relieved by Woolner
t it was too late. The tide set the
her way and the game was won by
e GoveiteS.

for the future. These adorpments
will be large silly seal, two inches
