AMASA NEWS.

Mrs. Henry Dienberg and children
arrived at Amasa last Thursday after.
noon for visit with their relatives
here. The Dienbergs are now living
at Pensaukee, Wis.
Visitors 10 Amasa on the G. & N.
w. railroad are very much inconyien-
ineced by the present terminal ar
rangements. The steam shovel Is
working on the main track at the big
stockpile to the Dorth OF the mine
and the passenger train stops at the
mine Office. Passengers have to walk
from there TO the village. This ar
rangement Is necessitated by the fact
that there is no room for the shovel to
work excepting on the main track.
1t will be at least week before the
shovel has loaded enough ore TO clean
the track
The shovel Is busily engaged load
ing the Hemlock stock pile. The opera
tors are getting very good work out OF

loaded
Walter Lawrence was taken to the

There was a killing frost at Amasa

IL IL an old gag TO kick on the
umpire but in the present instance
we feel that something is necessary.
Chappell, II left alone, is one OF the
best men that we have ever seen in
position. Saturdays game was as
fair as any game was ever umpired
but, Sundays was not SO. The feel
ing in Iron Mountain was such that
prominent men, friends OF Mr.. Chap
| pell, berated him for not giving all
close decisions to the ''home" team.
The pressure was such that Mr..
Chappell had To forfeit the friendship
OF many OF his friends and neighbors
or favor the Mountain team Sunday
and out OF eight close decisions, every
one of them were given to Iron
Mountain. We don't charge him
with wilful robbery but do think that
In future games, both here and at
Iron Mountain, an outside man should
be engaged.
A careful estimate Of the winnings
OF Crystal Falls sports on the two
games puts it at $3.50: that much we
have actually counted up Some
claim that $1,000 were carried home
on the special.
There were 1919 paid admissions on
Sunday. That is the biggest days
earnings the Athletic Association has
had this year, II reliable authority
can be depended upon.
Patient Joe" in his story Of how
that run was scored omitted several
particulars very necessary TO COM
plete understanding OF his "head-
work" For instance, he should have
told how he threw his bat after the
ball and how he grabbed Ienry's
finger. But then, with him who
records his own glory, candor is sell
dom a mentionable virtue"
The two Iron Mountain players
who struck the fancy OF Crystal Falls
fans most are MilIiman and Mathews.
They are both good men and gentle
manly players.
Eddie Scott fell a long way i'm the
admiration OF local fans when he
threw his club after a little pop fly in

For the enlightenment OF local
people who witnessed the game. Sun

the game for the Iron Mountain
TriDune-Gazette please climb up into
his belfry, chase the bats OUT and in
form us at what stage OF the game
that triple play took place.
To understand how much feeling
the people Of Iron Mountain had in
the contest we cite the instance Of
several women in the grand stand
who actually broke down and wept
when the locals won. This is no fairy
tale but an actual incident that
occurred Co our own personal knowl-

his wife with him Sunday and they

For its fruit starts to ripen as soon as the

And from then till late autumn there falls
from its boughs such crop tbs
Let us stand for awhile where the things
may be seen as they drop from the

There's the iceman who comes with his
bambOoZle weight and the fizZman

BY supplying him soda that's half an inch
deep meath seven-inch. bubble
There's the lager beer merchant purvey-
ing. his froth to bamboozled lot
such as We

bOoZle tree.
There's the shrewd summer boarder bam-
bOoZling the man who is rural in
tastes and in training,
BY becoming indebted hundred or more

ing;
There's the Reuben who knows vastly
more than you'd think, and who cap
lures the sharper-fOr he
Has use of his own that he makes of
the fruit that is shed by the bam-
So we sit meath the boughs of the bam-
boozie bush that in summer time
flourishes madly,
And We gorge on the fruit that descends
from it's limbs. though it nauseates
all of us sadly,
There is scarcely a soul meath It's world

Such an endless assortment Of fruitage is
