Old Time Ball Players on the Base
 ball Field Saturday.
 The teams of the Hose and Hook and Ladder companies of the fire de- partment locked horns at the fair grounds Saturday in one of the most interesting games seen here in some time. Some of the old time ball tossers who have not played in many years were out Saturday and the way they played the game was caution: Many of the younger ball players looked on in amazement at the mar vicious exhibition given by the old timers. Shortly after p. m. Chief Magee called ''paay balr' and the great game was on. During the first four innings but few runs were made ow- ing to the inability of the batters to connect with the opposing pitchers. Some very sharp fielding also cut off many runs. Tn the sixth inning, with the score 3-3. Dunphy of the Hooks hit to left center for three bases, but was caught at the plate. In the eighth the Hose company, by some sharp hitting, managed to get another ruin across the plate. The score: Hose Go .......0 o 1 0 o 2 o 1 CA H. &S L. Go .....O 1 o o 0 O-3 Batteries-Welton and Cunningham; flaming and Brouette.

Light to heavy frosts occurred in the

precipitation for the week will aver

with the cool weather, retarded the
growth of vegetation to an apprecia-

MOSQUITOES REPORTED
UNUSUALLY NUMEROUS

they must have wintered well. From
everywhere come reports of unusual
Iy numerous and unusually hungry
insects of this pestiferous variety.
Every mud hole that has been slow
about drying after the wetness of the
spring has been propagating them by
the millions and they have become
so numerous and bloodthirsty that
they have even ventured into the
fields in broad daylight in some in
stances and made life miserable for
man and beast. With continuation
of this dry weather it seems that we
might look for a thinning out after
awhile.
