ROYAL BLUES DEFkAr INDIANS IN
sNAPPY GAME IN AFrERNooN
wss One OF the Best Game PLAYED Here
This season-lndians Had Ad-
vansage at Might

The snappiest baseball game of the
season PLAYED on the home grounds,
was PLAYED here Wednesday afternoon
between the Sioux Indian ball team
and the ROYAL Blues. which resulted
in the score Of to ia favor of the
Blues. The game was an interesting
one throughout and at no time could
the winner be picked out. The Blues
were in fine form and they made the
Indians ulay a fast game.
There was good crowd present and
they were kept interested throughout
the nine innings watching the plays.
some of which were very brilliant. 1t
was pretty exhibition all around
and very few errors we've made on
either side. The Indians went on the
field to win and they certainly put up
a game that deserved victory, but the
Blues were there and there for the
same purpose. The Red Men we're
fast players but they were not fast
enough for the Blues and they lost
after hard fought game.
Sinner. the Winchester twirler, was
IN fine form. and some of his snake
like curves puzzled The braves and
cansed them to cut great gashes in the
atmosphere. He not only played his
position in the box but fielded we'll
and without doubt won the game by
knocking a double when the bases
We're full, bringing in the winning
score. During the game he had sim
gle and one double to his credit He
is an enthusiastic player and is we'll
liked by all of the fans in this city.

was no kicking on either side as 10

NEW FASHIONS IN
FANCY NOTE PAPER
Nearly All of 1t Is Now Made IN
Extremely Square Style.

WRITTEN FOR THE SUNDAY REPUBLIC.
New styles of letter paper are running to
extremes OF squareness. and some go be-
yond. for they are slightly wider than they
are long, and the envelopes are long and
narrow.
One of the new styles Of bond is after the
old-time buckram, and Is styled the old
style bond buck.
This has an uneven, rough finish. some
thing like birch bark. 1t comes in white
only. If any one cares for names, here are
those of the different sizes OF the paper:
Harold, Erlins, Bob Roy and Viking. The
envelope for the Bob Roy SIZE has ragged
edge. an old style revived. and the long flap
is uneven. shorter at one side than the
other.
All the envelopes are long. but that OF the
Viking is extra long and narrow.
There is an exceedingly pretty new style
In overland. or continental. note paper. 1t
has beautiful silk finish, and there is n
fine cord effect in the paper. This Is made
in the ordinary shapes, larger sizes of the
paper being better for foreign corresponds
ence. Imperial and Gladstone are the names
of the shapes in which it comes, says the

Cheviot vellum is one more paper which Is

All these papers average from 40 to 60 cents

paper sales.
There are no limits to what one may pay

and will be worn with the loose-fitting
coats of black peau de sole or pongee. with
cloth costumes, with silk gowns and with
frocks of lawn, linen or batiste.
These collars are many of them fifteen
inches deep, and are made Of two or three
dlfferent varieties of race in combination
with insets of either silk or linen.
They help to acccntuate the sloping Shout
der effect which is so fashionable right now.
Capelike boas with stole ends will also be
worn at Easter time. and the prettiest are
in white and black effects. In white taffeta,
decorated with trailing vine of black chif-
fon roses. they are new and charming.
They are also very soft and lovely OF

With the Anglers.

Tuesday proved to be a good day
for the fishermen at Lake Cobbossee-
contee. A fair number of trout were
caught and there were exciting eX-
periences which were most interesting
to hear.
w. d. Spaulding with John Merrill,
the "old and reliable" guide, cruised
about the Outlet and lower islands dur
| ing the morning and "weathered" the
storm with nothing more remarkable
than wet clothing and ordinary fishing.
After dinner Messrs. Spaulding and
Merrill were preparing for another trip
and were standing on a float at Mer-
rill's shore. Mr.. Merrill with rod in
hand stepped to the edge of the float,
and made a cast, remarking that there
might be trout in that locality. The
minnow touched the water, there was
a splash and the reel -buzzed and with
in a minute ~ FOUNDER lay dancing
on the grass. Another cast (the sus-
pense and excitement was terrible and
grand) and trout number two initiated
his predecessors, but was larger and
fought and made good his escape. Trout
number three was also taken in off
the float, but he was much smaller
than the previous two. Mr.. Spauld1ng
enjoyed the episode very much, but it
is safe to say that he was anxious and
would have gladly welcomed a hand"
in the fun had there been time.
Mike Mcdonald and party of Car
diner, secured four good trout.
w. H. johnson of Augusta, caught a
beauty near his cottage.
Prof. Mooney of Columbia College,
was successful in landing one during
the day. He is stopping at Pinkham's
Inn and late in June is to marshal a
party of about 20 students into camp
in the near vicinity. They expect to
remain through July and August.
Thus far the trout have been fairly
accommodating and it is probable that
many good catches will be reported
during the week.
