IT is proposed here to raise a
purse of about $500 and offer it as
prize for ball teams to come to
Stafford and play three days
game. Plans have not yet been
completed for the game but it is
certain that the purse will be
raised and offered, therefore ball
teams will be safe in making pre-,
prations for the game. Several
teams will be allowed to contest
for the prize. The date and de-
tails Of the game will probably be
fixed in time to be published in
next weeks GUARDIAN. Such a
game will bring teams, together
with their friends from all near by
points, and people will come for
miles around to witness a game
that will be as interesting and
hotly contest as the proposed one
is sure to be. The people of SAT-
ford should unite on this PROPOSE
tion and assure success of the
tournament.

LEADERS

TIE crowd that attended the
ball game here OH Saturday last
proved 10 financial success to
our business men, although il took
considerable argument to convince
some Of them that it would be. 4
large amount Of money was left
here among our merchants, one at
least claiming to have taken in
$3.50. Notwithstanding this fact
it took a good deal Of canv ssing
10 raise the necessary amount to
pay expenses, which does not
speak in very glowing terms of the
liberality of car business people
who reap the benefit Of such enter
prises Of course this does not
apply to all for there are some who
always co aribute freely, with the
remark that if more is needed, call
again. But unless all stand to-
gether it Is impossible TO make q
town good; it requires push, energy
and liberalitv and the man who
stands back to take advantage Of
that which is done by others, will

ANECDOTES OF WASHINGTON
By W. @. MYERS. Ft. Thomas


IS brought these hidden passages to light. 1t
time they will be given place in every schc
When Washington was at New York,
Hard pressed by British foes,
An orderly came riding up
And so the story goes
81 bring you news of Putnam's corps,
His men would fain retreat,
But barred by British infantry,
They can't march down the street"
The great commander bowed his head,
And then he seemed to rally,
"Say, go and tell old Put" said he,
"To march 'em through the valley"
When Washington at Brandywine
And Germantown had lost,
The Continental Congress met
And figured up the cost
John Hancock went to Valley Forge,
And said the country waited
Another Trenton victory,
To make them feel eated;
"Say, send us down." said Washington,
''Some cheese and picked COW
ana QOn I come mere 10 give duNlCe,
Until you first learn Howe"
When Major Andre had to hang,
Some criticised the deed;
And said the act was more severe
Than there was any need.
They got big petition up,
And sent it by committee,
In which they begged of Washington
His clemency and pity.
"Pll spare him." said the general,
A frown upon his face,
"When some one else shall volunteer
To take the Majors place"
When Washington at Yorktown's walls
Had brought the foe to bay,
A cannoneer came running up,
And had word to say:
ave don't know how to load the guns,
Our shot and shells all gone sir"
The enemy is rallying,
And now what's to be done, sir?"
The great chiefs answer came at once,
1t were no time for stammers
"You don't know how to load the guns?
Why, load 'em with the rammer."
When Washington and Lafayette
Were marching to the coast,
Said Washington to Lafayette,
Ahd unosidie boast,
u corner Corn. upon the Change,
sls II lid II shall come to pass
IF be don't want to move our way,
Why, he can go to Grasse.
Well win the greatest victory
