Der Of strangers are here to witness the
Yale-Naval Academy boat race and the
baseball game which is to precede it this

SENATOR AT 25.

Lcavenworth, Kas.-To have been elected a state senator at 25, and to at the same time represent one of the most important and populous districts of the state. is an honor which has just come to Louis H. Wulfekuhler. of this city, who was elected state senator by the largest majority given any candi- date in the county-976. Senator Wufekuhlor, of courss, is for the re- election of Senator Baker. When the county republican convention was held lasl5 September the selection of a candi- cate for s5 nator was left entirely in the hands of Senator Baker. Knowing him as a young lawyer of marked ability. the senator selected MT. Wulfekuhler as his candidate. The majority he re- ceivej, in thz face of one of the hard est fought political battles in the his tory of Leavenworth county, is the strongest endorsement of Senator Ba- kerts good judgment. Leavenworth county. which comprises the third sen atorial district, has almost invariably sent democratic senators to Topeka and the election of MT. Wulfekuhler shows that there has bean change Of over 1,500 votes in his favor. When S5nator WuifekUh!er takes his seat in the senate next January, he will be the youngest man by four years who has b-en similarly honored. The youngest senator heret-fora was almost 30 years of age.

OLD GAME OF TOWN BALL.

Except in large cities, base ball was net p,ayet much out west until near the '7c5," said a man who was toy in the '4Os. But the game in what was then known as the west, '3r the border, was one I have never seen in the east, and have never heard of it for forty years. We called it town ball.
 Tt was usually played on the school grounds by the boys. The numocT was never limited. As long as the sides were equal tkIt was sufficient. I have seen it played by thirty on each side, and sometimes by mere. The ir.s and outs were chosen by two captains, se- l5cted by general consent, and they were usually rega1 ded as good play CTS. A wagon spoke wag always re- gardcd as the best bat.
 "The thrower Of the spoke was cap tain Of the ins, and proceeded t. 5-tect his p'ayers from the crowd. The first man selected was pitcher. The g -cCl1 selected by the captain Of the outs was catcher. The players were then sell ected ahtcrEaItely until as many as de- sired were called. There was no um- pire. The man at the bat had three strikes unless h. was caught out be- fore. He could run on any e'c-ik- ma2e.
 There were four bases anl each had to be clear when made by a payer. If the man at th= hat fai!ed tr make hit ard was not caught out he S,ool pc:de and the next player was calIcd.
 Any player Wlo batted tLe ball such a distance that it could not be thrown in town So that the man on the first base could make the ether 5nr-a With cut stopping, brought in by batting the last player who had been caught out, or who had failed to strike The ball.
 The cuts, or meEI in the country were always on the alert. Of cou~sa, to get to t5wn,' and that, l think, was the origin of the name of tlhe game.
 'The ball used was usually Q c,c3sly wound yarn sphere, somoti.nss cover=d with leather. Thsse balls were genor- ally wound by the girls of the town who took interest in the game Each side would Cftsn have it's own ball, and q lost Eall,' if it had been presented by a village maid was considered had luck for the side that lost 1t.
