by a special train carrying 10 of the
ladies and gentlemen of Ellis, came
down here last Sunday afternoon and
played game with the Hays club be-
fore q big crowd on the ball grounds

run theirs up to seven tallies. But
there were many excellent plays and
much interest was shown.

storm loss: "a recent hail storm did
an enormous amount of damage at the
Fort Hays Branch Experiment Station
Wheat, oats, barley, rye and speltz to
the extent of 800 acres were complete
