That great and grand aggregation
known as the Boston Boomers blew
into Tonopah yesterday, from where
nobody knows. They leave this morn
ing. Nobody cares.
There was Maudie and Maize and
Dottie and Kittie and Carrie, and
Blanche on the bench with her mitt
done up in cotton batting, who
might have been a sub and who
might have been there for effect
They were typical Kansas boarding
house biscuit shooters and must have
come in on a wild tornado. Two of
them were bow legged, two pigeon
toed and one with twisted knee cap,
and all shoulder bound save Carrie
on first, who was there like duck
In rain storm. AS for looks they
would have not only stopped seven
day clock, but Old Sol went behind a
cloud for fifteen minutes and then
showed with redoubled fury to get
an even break. A band of Sioux war
riors would have gone sixteen miles
out of their way to avoid this home
ly bunch. Tonopah has had to stand
for good many things, but this was
the limit. Had they sprung this
string of lilies on the Democratic
convention the delegates would have
left town Immediately after the five
hours wrestle with the credentials
committees report, and as for their
feet there is no political party's plat
form broad enough for them to get
on plank. 1t is lucky for this
bunch of grafters that the chief of
the fire department did not get hold
of them after sounding the false
alarm of fire for they would have
been given a bath that would have
lasted them for at least a month and
we may be pardoned for saying that
they looked as if they needed it. The
next time the Boston Boomers hit
Tonopah it should be with scrub
bling brush and sign, Wanted a
days work." in place of a canvas
fence that had within its confines the
biggest aggregation of freaks ever
turned loose in the sagebrush or any
other country.
With press dispatches galore and
each player whit reputation as long
as your arm and posing as the orig
inal Boston team they undertook to
show the fans of Tonopah a few
things about the game that we didn't
understand. And they did. They
showed us few overgrown ankles
That's all.
In the first inning they had one OF
the bloomer COILS in the box, but in
the second they put man in her
stead, who knew something about
the game. There were five girls and
four men composing the aggrega-
ton. The only girl who really un-
derstood anything about the art was
the lady on first base, who was in
the game the entire time. She could
play her position we'll and her root.
ing made even the seasoned fans
keep their silence. The rest of the
team were novices at the game.
Skillman, the new acquisition Of
the Eagles-Elks, made his first APP.
pearance with that team and with
his help the Eagles should finish the
season at the top of the column. He
has been playing in the coast league
and he's speed and curves and is also
good batter.
The score at the end of the game
was to in the local teams favor
and Lad the boys let themselves gu
the same might have been called of
