Orangeburg for next week, two to be
played here on the 7th and 9Th, and one
in Orangeburg on the 9th. As yet, no
other games have been scheduled, but
dates are now under consideration with
Columbia and Aiken. Bamberg now has
a good strong team and before the season
is over some excellent games may be ex-
pected. Having been defeated only once
this season, Bamberg feels justly proud
of her team. Let good crowds attend the
games, for it takes money to keep up the
team.

What Downed Them.

The people of Rawlins are very
much exercised over the defeat of
their juvenile base ball team here
the other day, and are making
every possible excuse for the
boys. One lady of that place re-
marked TO the writer that she
thought the real reason for the
defeat the last day was, that some
OF the Saratoga people had tax
en- the boys up and given them a
bath in the hot springs. She did
not intend to imply hat the
boys were not used to bathing,
and did not realize the import of
her words until the audience be-
gan to smile audibly.

A minister of the gospel who is
practical as well as orthodox offers
some good suggestions on sanitary
regulations for the summer. Re-
ferring particularly to bad water
and typhoid fever, he says.
Typhoid fever is the curse of
country life. 1t is wholly prevent
able. The time will come when
man will be as much ashamed to
have this disease in his family as
he would to have his neighbours
spoons found in his pocket. 1t
comes from drinking foul water.
Look carefully to your water sup
ply. If sewerage is permitted to
run into wells and cisterns trouble
Is sure to come. If there is any
suspicion of foulness quit using
at once. 1t is safe to boil all wa
ter before using. Travellers who
are bound to drink on the road
should provide themselves with
lemons. A dash of lemon Juice
will shrivel up typhoid germs in
short order.
"lf these precautions are not
taken doctors and undertakers will
soon do a land Office business.
Preachers will be kept busy
preaching funeral sermons. There
will be broken hearts, fearful suf-
fering, and lives cut short. AL.
mighty God will be blamed and
His providence called into ques-
ton when it will all arise from
someone's Ignorance, neglect and
d%irtiness. Wyoming Tribune.

STAGE LINE SARATO.
GA TO RUDEFEHA
G. N. seribner, Proprietor Of the Sara
Toga-~ Enoampment Stage Line, Re-
questsd to Resume his Stage Line TO
That Point.

From G. NJ. Scribner the owner
of the Saratoga Encampment stage
line, we learn that he has started
to open up the road from this
place to Rudefeha AMI will re-
sumo running his stages to that
point as soon MS he can get the
road broken over the divide into
the camp. Mr.. Scribner said:
Il do this at the request of the
people of Rudefeha and Dillon
themselves, as | am informed that
since the discontinuance Of the
of the mail, between this point
and Rudefeha, not a pound of ex-
press of any kind has been carried
into those places. There is now
a large amount of express, both at
this place and at Encampment,
which cannot be gotten into those
places by any other route at pre-
sent. The mail route from Ram
bier to Rudefeha is over a high
spur of the Continental Divide,
and the only possible way the
mail a be taken in is on snow
shoes, and l am informed by the
people at Rudefeha that only
first class mail-which means let
ter mail-has reached that point
since | was ordered to discontin-
ue service between Saratoga and
those points on the 18th of last
month. The people up there are
weary of the situation and have
appealed to me to again take up
the work of at least supplying
them with their express matter.
"All express matter that will go
over the Rambler route will cost
the people of those districts about
double what it did over my former
line. | will run this line of mine
right along from now on and all
express will be billed via my
route. There is an awful howl
going up in that region over the
present snow shoe mail service, as
nothing can be carried over the
mountain but the letter mail, the
paper and other mail being allow
ed to accumulate at Rambler
and other points on the route"

Enoampmsnt Nine Still 1t.

The senior nine of Saratoga
went.to Encampment Sunday to
play the Encampment nine, re-
turning home with a o of Is
to IA in favor of Encampment.
The Saretoga boys were in the
lead the greater part of the game
and at the end of the first half of
the ninth inning the game stood
10 to ID in favor OF Saratoga, but
a couple Of errors allowed the En-
campment boys to run in four tai
lies.
The game was a good one, but
the Saratoga niue is handicapped
with two or three poor players
who usually fall down just when
they are needed the most.

ORE SUCCESSFULLY CARRIED.
First Bucket Of Ore passes Over the
Aerial Tramway of the North Ameri-
can Copper 90. or Tuesday of last Week.

The first bucket of ore was car.
ried over the aerial tramwav of
the North American Copper Co.,
from the Ferris Haggarty mine to
the smelter at Encampment, a
distance of l6 miles last Tuesday.
1t was the realization of the hopes
of thousands of people and was
observed as a day of rejoicing and
speech-making at Encampment.
The tramway wires were started
early in the forenoon and long be-
fore the bucket of ore arrived the
towers in and around Encamp.
ment were covered with people
waiting TO catch the first glimpse
of the bucket, and when it came,
decorated with the stars and
stripes, there was a race from one
tower to another to get a piece
of r as q souvenir. The crowd
followed the bucket to the smelter
and carried off about half of the
ore brought down, to keep in
remembrance of the OCCASION.
Willis George Emerson, John
S. Cary, b. McCaffrey and Grant
Jones were each called on in turn
and responded with appropriate
speeches.
The trBmway was in operation
the first of the week, Running with
full buckets. There is a quantity
Of ore at the Rudefeha mine which
ii is probable the company will
run over to the smelter at once,
and that plant is getting in opera
ton as soon MS sufficient ore is in
the bins to keep it running for a
time. The operators claim they
have everything in shape to get
the smelter under full Roadway
in "a hours, and they are now
ON the ore,
The building of the tramway
and getting it in running order is
of n the most complete smelter
plants in the west, 40 miles from
the nearest railroad station, at the
cost of an enormous sum of money,

average citizen does not real
ize the extent of, until brought in
to actual contact with the reality

Some of the sheepmen in Salt
creek country have been losing a
number number of sheep and
lambs during the past month. it
is reported, and as they could not
find the carcass of the animals or
and tracks of wolves or coyotes.

were carrying off a part of their
hocks, and they set several bear
traps near the herds, and one
morning when they showed up to
care for their focks they fonnd a
big buck Indian caught in one of

and the Indian let out of the grip
of the iron jaws. He was Just

the country with as much speed
as possible, and no sheep have
been carried away since.-Casper

Base ball will be one feature,
and it will also be arranged to
have the games come at such
times us not to interfere with the
other sports on the program, or to
infringe on the time necessary to
carry them out. Dancing has
heen arranged for the evenings,
and arrangements are on foot to
secure a good opera company for
