for the hearse-they knew what they
were up against. The combine could
MT find Anderson and did not score for
several innings when they crossed the
rubber in the 9Th and that ended their
score getting. The champions batted
poor Maloney numerically and got
hits in two innings. He was then
sent to the hay field where he got a
chance to rest, Judas Iscariot Owens
was sent in to finish the game and the
boys got more runs before the wind
up, the game ending to in oul
favor. Billy Anderson pitched the
finest game of the season and he was
ably assisted behind the bat by Jake
Lem. The members of the team
batted fine and their work all through
could not be improved. 1t was great
day for the local fans and the cup
still remains with us. We are glad
that we had Billy Anderson and that
fifteen cents bought up Owens. Billy
is worth ten such men at any old
time. We wonder what Hope will dc
with Judas now that they have him.

Jack Brown was the busiest man in
the state but he got there just the
same. Jack makes a good secretary.
Bert Shaw and G. O. Wheeler:
''Tell us not in mournful numbers,
base ball is an empty dream, for from
the weight of our pocketbooks, it is
certainly the real thing"
The fair association officers worked
hard to make it a success and succeed
ed.
Jack Flynn and Tom Warner don't
wear any hats since the races
Wyandotte won.
The band boys did themselves
proud. They are crackerja jacks.
Editor Rearick found time to get
into that last game in addition to
getting out a nice daily.
When Cooperstown does anything
she does it right.
A nice rain now would be just right.
Sanborn, Darcy, Valley City, Hope,
Finley, Hannaford, McHenry, Bin

Editor Pepper was over from Hope
but done his roofing on the wrong side.

WILLIAMSBURG, VA. May Cir
ciut Court has been in session all this
week, the time being occupied almost
exclusively with the suit Of John Dolen
against J. 3. c. Spencer for $4,000, a
case growing out d personal encounter
between the parties mentioned eighteen
months ago.
Louis NVendenburg, Of Richmond, is
counsel FOR plaintiff, and this is the sec
onG trial Of the cause a hung jury being
the result this time as before.
~ DAY OLE.
The sober, dignified men of the town
usually take a day off in spring and have
{. big romp, duly billed as baseball
game between Benedicts and Bachelors.
All the town assemblies on the green, the
hospital band plays and every one par
ticipates in one capacity or another, thus
bringing together the largest strictly
local crowd ever gathering here.
The game yesterday included such fea-
lures as these: An octoganarian ex-
Mayor carrying water for the thirsty;
the dignided present Mayor unlpiring
and roasting, with an impartiality born
of a quarter century's back practice
both sides; q two hundred and fifty
ponud member Of Governor Montague's
staff sprinting around the bases for a
home run. the wonder being not that he
Gid It well, but that he did 1t at all.
ESTABLISHED CUSTOM.
This so-called baseball game has be-
come an established town custom, and
constitutes magnificent opportunity for
the letting-off of the years pent-up ami
NAL spirits Of the grown-ups, and can
be recommended as the best spring med
icine for towns whose liver has been
clogged by oyersecretion Of bile and too
morbid attention to petty indigestions.
Tomorrow is field day at the college,
and the exercises. which include the
usual events, will last all day. An ex-
cursion from Richmond fs scheduled
and the attendance is expected to be
unusually large.

probable candidate to succeed the late
Congressman Peter J. Otey. although
he has expressed no intention OF being
a candidate.
His answering devotion to his party
and his varied business interests give
him large acquaintanceship throughout
the district and he is popular wherever
known. Roanoke county has never had
a Congressman and as this districts rep
resentative has been for many years
from the other end of the district. she
feels that she is entitled to some con-
sideration. 1t is almost certain that Col
one Bowman's candidacy will be an
nounced.
Hon James W. Marshall has authorized
the statement that he will favor the sub
mission Of the new Constitution to the
vote of all the people for ratification or
rejection, thus fulfilling the promise he
made to the convention when accepting
the nomination.
