| COOperstOwn Courier:
Cooperstown, N. Oak.
According to reports as copied by
Mayville Tribune from one of the
Cooperstown papers name not given
it appears that Cooperstown ball play
ers claim the honor of winning both
games, which was not SO. The game
in the forenoon was to 2 in favor of
Cooperstown, five innings and in the
Afternoon to 6 in favor of Hatton,
nine innings. The Hatton boys as
an extended compliment, will say that
the COOperstown pase ball team are
all perfect gentlemen.
A HATToN Boy.
Either ga Hatton Boy" is mistaken
or the Mayville paper. Both Coop
erstown papers gave proper credit for
the games at Hatton-one for each
club. Cooperstown boys only want
what belongs to them, nothing more.
Hatton Boy should sign his proper
name rs a matter of courtesy. We
don't know who we are talking to.
The large red house, situated on lots
% and "a Of block 81, is for sale at
the extremely low price of 1000. Who
wants bargain?

Agent.
The ball team returned from Car.
rington Monday night thoroughly dis
gusted at the dirty treatment received
at the hands of the Darlington people.
The game ended Is to 5 in favor OF
the home club. It would have made
no difference if Cooperstown had had
the Chicago league club to play for
them, they could not have won the
game. The Darlington people intend
ed to win no matter what it cost. They
hired hobo to umpire for them and
he did it to perfection to suit the peo.
pie of that town in a very high handed
manner. The language OF the manag-
er of the club, Mr.. Wing, also of some
of the players, was not fit for decent
people to hear, and brands them as
anything but gentlemen. The team
from here met with nothing but abuse
and rough treatment from start to
fnish-just what you could expec,
from a lot of loud-mouthed blather.
