The contention of The True Northern
er that Paw Paw would have an electric
railway bids fair to be realized, and that,
too. IN the near future. Renewed activ-
/ ity at the South Haven end and the we'll
! founded rumor that the old NJ. c. rail-
road bed between Lawton and Kalama-
zoo has been acquired by the s. H., X. &
c. railway is very encouraging to US.
! While We do not anticipate connection
with South Haven this year, we do be-
lieve it will be possible to get to Lawton

The game of base ball at Gobleville
Wednesday, between Paw Paw and Cob
leville, was given to Gobleville by the
umpire by number of decisions so rank
as TO call for condemnation at the hands
of Gobleville people, who are always fair
and treat all visitors with courtesy. The
score 8 to in favor of Gobleville in II
innings with three errors for Paw Paw
and seven for Gobleville, indicates that
fair decisions would have given the game
to Paw Paw. Young Reynolds pitched
like a veteran, striking out six men and
giving the home team but seven hit:
during the game.
