evening when the matter OF
granting the use of the use of the
streets to the Cash Carnival

Milbank the latter part of the
month under the auspices of the
citizens band, was taken up. As
there had been considerable dis
cussion among the citizens re-

quite a number were present.
With but little discussion the
question was brought to q vote
and unanimously granted.

on the home grounds Wednesday
afternoon. The first game was
between the first nine of Milbank
and the Ortonville Foundry nine,
resulting in favor of the home
team, the score being 5 TO Ga
complete shut-out. Altogether
it was one of the best games
played here this spring. While
some poor playing was done by
both sides, there were plenty Of
good plays to make up for them.
There were a number of grand
stand plays made by the MEM
bers of the home team, just to
show those present that they
still had a right to wear their
ball suits, and which received
merited applause. Shortly after
this game the high school teams
of Ortonville and Milbank crossed
bats. Very few really poor plays
were registered against either
nine. On the part of the M. FL.
S. boys, they did good work, the
backing up of the players being
exceptionally good. The batting
was also good. The game re-
suited in favor of Milbank, tha
score standing 6 to 10.

TENT AGAIN BLOWN DOWN,
Fairfield Chautauqua Experiences
More Hardship in Terrible Storm.

Fairfield, Aug. ga wind and rain
storm more terrific than that of last
Monday evening, passed over the city
about 2:30 yesterday morning and de-
Vastated everything within it's course.
Corn fields We're laid low and farmers
will experience much difficulty in gath
ering their corn. Out at the Chautau-
qua grounds the storm was much more
destructive than last Monday evening"
Not only was the large assembly ten,
again blown down but twenty of the
smaller tents were treated likewise
out of the seventy that We're there. 1t
rained about the heaviest of the sea-
son and much to the disconforture of
the tenters who not only found their
tents blown away, but were obliged to
stand in a drenching rain with heavy
lightning display. A large force of
men went to work again and for the
thir time erected the large tent. The
morning program was carried out by
having the people congregate in the
large anphitneater, where the exer-
cises We're held until late yesterday
T. Washington day and had it not
been for that, no doubt the managers
would have continued to use the am
phitheater as todav will end the ten
days of Cr.autauqua, which has been
very successful from many stand
points, notwithstanding the misfor-
tune that it has had to encounter.
