BAyE BALL NOTES.

The Viroqua high school boys held
the crack La Fargo ball team down in
a game last Saturday, and for time
it looked as though the aspirations OF
the visitors for state championship
would be trampled in the dust. For
twelve innings the home team held
them to score of to 4, but in the
Bunny" Rabbit, was exhausted from
the long strain, and La Fargo ran in
five more scores mailing the score 9 10
4. The game was one of the most ex.
citing seen in the city Tor many day,
and we firmly believe with good hare
practice the local team could give the
Kickapoo bunch drubbing.
