The Ball Games at Dodge City.

The Meade nine went up against
it at Dodge last week. They lost
Wednesdays game by score of 4
to S, but were entitled to the game,
for they did the best batting and
also the best playing. In the first
half of the 9Th inning the Meade
boys went to the bat with the score
3 to 3. Paul Cochran went to the
bat instead of Norman Elliott, who
was sick, and had notified Will
Davis who was one of the umpires.
There were two of the Meade men
on bases and Paul brought both of
them in and landed safely on third
base himself. The Dodge players
then kicked on Cochran batting for
Elliott, which he had right to do,
and if they had any kick should
have made it at the time he was
batting. After he had finished they
have no right to recall the error,
having slept on their rights. They
succeeded, however, in talking Will
Davis out of a decision for our
boys. After the game Will found
that he was in error and admitted
that the decision was wrong. But
it was too late to change it then.
Some of our boys were very much
excited and refused to play, but in
the interest of harmony finally
agreed to finish the game. With
the two scores that Cochran brought
IN and the one he made himself
would have won the game for our
boys-6 to s. While decision was
against US we shall always think we
should have won.
Score by innings:
Meade 10 o o o.
Dodge 1ao % o a-s
Batteries: Meade - Elliott anc
Cooper. Dodge-Parish and Bur
rell. Struck out by Elliott, 7, by
Parish, 8.
We will say farther that the Dodge
nine was composed of 3 players from
Dodge City, 4 from La Junta, from
Denver and from Pueblo.

The game on Thursday was lost
by our boys, they feeling ''bum''
over the game of the day before.
1t was not nearly SO well played by
either side. The score was as fol-
lows:
Dodge TAI "a o 3-I3
Meade % oIo o p 7
In this game Chapman caught
and Elliott pitched 6 innings and
Pyle, the last three.

Last Monday morning John Bor-
chers, of Odee twp. filled up his
pipe to enjoy an after breakfast
smoke, but instead of filling it with
straight tobacco, he accidentally
put in az short cartridge which
was among the tobacco which was
loose in his pants pocket. He lit
the pipe and the shell soon explod-
ed and struck him on the lower eye
lid of the right eye and passed on
through and lodged in the corner OF
the eye. He Immediately walked
over to his brother Henry's house,
who brought him to town arriving
about noon. DR.. Leslie removed
the shell which had gone through
the eye-lid. The eye-ball was badly
powder-burnt but Doc thinks the
eye-sight will not be injured.

A SWARM CATCHER.

graph wire is about right. Next take
piece of burlap and sew into bag
shape, then sew the wire ring into the
mouth Of the bag and fasten it into the
crotched stick so it will swivel, and the
deVlce is ready for use. 1t is well to
nave on hand one or two poles of differ
ent lengths and two short straps with
which to unite them.
This device will reach a swarm 30
reet from the ground. The great fea-
ture of 1t is its lightness, and no matter
at what angle the pole is held the bag
is always perpendicular. To hive a
swarm whose queen is at large with
the bees, bring the swarm catcher
right up under the cluster and give it
a sharp jerk upward and the cluster
will drop from the limb right into the
mouth of the catcher. Carry to the
hive and turn the bag inside out, and
the bees will drop in front of the hive
and run into it.
