team will take the field that played
here last Sunday. II Will be neces.
sary 10 find a man TO take the place
left vacant by Williams at short. Who
this man will be Is a hard proposition
10 determine. There is one thing that
the boys from here will do and
that is TO quit the field when the I'M

cine like men and play still harder.

take the horse and did no damage
with the exception Of cutting a few
fences in the neighborhOod. ToIs
Shaw and Silvcrthorne hunted around
that part of the country but could
find no trace Of them. From the de.
scription given to the sheriff IL was
thought that N OF the men was
Guilford Kelly, out this could not he
