been contendcd by men who professed
TO be mineral sharps" that It was fool
ish to think Of finding gold, because Of
the absence OF everything that accom-
panics gold, and especially because OF
the absence Of porphyry.
Mr.. Fred Gritzmacher, who had fol-
lowed gold mining FOR thirty years,
came here and located expecting to be
clear OF the destinations OF the yellow
metal. He purchased the Gibson farm
half mile east OF town about n year
and hall ago, and settled down To en-.
Joy the quiet OF Tancy county farm life,
all unconscious that he was jumping In.

Last October his attention was at

farm, and this set him 10 looking, with
the result that he has found COLO in nu-

hard humping Of the year, at the hands Of
a Montpelier aggregation Of ball players,
on the Montpelier seminary campus Sat
uraay afternoon. The score was III to 9,
and the game was loosely played, there be-
ing large number Of errors, charged
chiefly to Goddard

college players and the pick Of Montpelier
and it's seminary, hit the bah for keeps

hits Oft Fraser, many Of which we're Of the
long variety Goddard could not hit
Chamberlain for many safe ones as he re
eeiYed excellent support Comparatively
few famed the air.
The way that the game opened foreboded
dire things for Goddard as Montpelier
brought in five runs before Goddard had a
look in. due mainly to the wild playing
Of the seminary team Aided by bases on
balls, however, the Goddard boys pulled
up gradually aud then passed the home
team. From that time on the game saweh
back and FORTH with the advantage first
on one side and then on the other. The
game ended with Goddard having two
men on bases and two scores needed to
tie the score, With two out The best the
batter could do was to send fly TO right
who gobbled 1t up; and the Montpelier
crowd was supremely happy.
The star play Of the game was a brill
liant catch Of fly ball by Butler Of God
dard. The ball sailed far over his head
into left field but he darted back and
pulled it down while on the run. An
easy double play followed as Goss, the
runner on first. had started for second not
believing that the ball would be caught.
