YELLOW AND BLACK WINS.
Huntoon's Drummers DO the
Clerks by Score of IL to 5.

Saturday was a great day for a
game; aud the game was not I'M
worthy of the day. Half of River
Falls and good part of Hudson left
its everyday concerns and turned out
to welcome Harry Huntoon and his
drdmmers, who came to town to play
base ball against time train time)
with the clerks about town. Many of
the travelingmen came in on the
noon train, accompanied by party
of Hudson people. Other supporters
of their cause came to town in car
riages, and still others on wheels.
Miss Mary Dyer escorted one party of
wheel people and Prof. Tobey of the
High School another. BY one O'Clock
the streets were all a-fiutter with the
colors of the two teams-yellow and
black for the visitors and rcd and
blue for the home team.
At shortly after one the parade was
made up in front of the Gladstone,
and headed by the Amateur Band set
out for the Norma campus. The two
teams were in line behind the band,
displaying any number of inscribed
banners and feeling singularly frisky.
Decorated bicycles and livery and pri-
yate carriages joined in seeing that
the visitors were properly escorted TO
the ball field, and once there, the fun
soon began.
This consisted principally in watch
| ing the rotation of the pitchers. The
visitors all seemed to be lively twirlers,
but up to the fifth inning, thanks to
good fielding, only had the lead by q
single point 6 to 81. At this stage
however, O'Keeffe took his stand in
| front of the umpire, and tossed the
ball with such dangerous ease that the
drummers batted him all over the
| landscape. Scarcely a square rod of
ground on the whole east campus es-
capped the carressing thud of the falling
ball during this half inning, and elev-
| en- drummers Numbered over the
home plate.
This closed the scoring; for during
the next two innings the men were
put out, for the most part, in one two
three order, and the visitors were
obliged TO leave for their train. They
left in high spirits, however, and no
body begrudged them their victory,
unless it was at the thought that
Campbell . really first class pitcher,
hadn'tyct Ia en- turn at them.
Mrs. j. I. Clrrol sent the travelling
men box of Yellow roses which they
wore on departing They seemed well
| pleased " n their visit, and Mr.. Hun
toon com before the curtain to
make the following acknowledge
ments:
/ wish publicly to thank the people
of River Falls for their efforts in
making the parade and ball game of
last Saturday a success. We are
especially indebted to Capt. Chapman,
Mr.. Glass and Mr.. Lord. i voice the
unanimous sentiment of the Drum
mers in saying that we were never
more royalty treated. We hope to
come again next year.
Yours truly.
HARRY X. HUNTooN.

Catholic Church Items.

The sermon next Sunday at 10 A. NJ
will be on 1.-THE holy Mass as a Sac
rifice of Thanksgiving and Impetra
tion." In the evening at 8 o'clock
THE Sign of the Cross: how and why
Catholics make it,"
A question box" has been estab-
lished on the inside Of the left inner
door in the church, to drop in ques-
tions for information on the Catholic
religion and its practices. Such ques-
tions will receive courteous attention
before the evening sermon.
There are hundreds of people, who
wish to know almost innumerable
things about Catholic doctrine, its
divine services, ceremonies and
practices, but who are too timid to
ask such questions of its ministers.
Here, now, the opportunity is afforded
to all to ask questions without being
known, and the more questions the
better.

few brief remarks, couched in the
Presidents trenchant and individual
style of address. Twenty certificates
were granted, the seven additional

Lawrence, Adine Van Schoonhoven,
Alice Baker, Cynthia Carlisle and
Mary Priddy, and Messrs. Carl Dey-

THE IRREPREssIBLE NINTH.
Yesterday morning occurred the
annual promotion exercises of the So
called ninth grade, whereby a con-
siderable class of young people cele-
brated the occasion of their advance
ment to the second floor. The class
motto was Earnestly and Diligent-
ly, " and in carrying out their program
the young people illustrated it right
well. Mollie Daniels gracefully de-
liyered the Greeting of the class; and
| following her came series of recit-
tions and short addresses, coherently
linked together, and very diverting
to the large company of people crowd
ed into the main hall of the school.
The scholars taking part were: Mabel
Chinook, Roscoe Hill, Sadie Kelley.
Geo. Foley, Marvin Morse, Ernest
Currier, Blaine Deal, Otto Bleisner,
Elmer Lowell, Florence Glass, Maud
Daniels, Estella Currier, Raymond
Ensign and Archie Shepard.
Preceding this program, the little
folks in the model grades made their
bow to all the kindly faces and nod
ding plumes that swan before their
unused eyes, and made their friends
very happy, and even very proud, by
their shrill little voices and pretty wi
and ways. These are the names of
the children who took special parts
on the program: David Smith,
Donald Currier, Ida Pettet, Mildred
Ensign, Helen Truesdell, Otto Winter
Anna Watson, Alice Clark, Ruth
Ewing, Ruth Currier, Garlic Haynes,
Ethel Truesdell, Eva White, Hazel
Hallett, Ethel Houston, and Edna
Brown.
