Vote Sox defeated.

The Ebert white sox journied to Eas-
tonville last Sunday to play the Easton-
vile team, but owing to a slight indispo-
sition, presumably heart failure, we were
obliged to play Colorado Springs, which
resulted 10 to 2 in favor OF Colorado
Springs. Its a pity that snch towns as
Eastonville and Parker cannot play men
around the vicinity without importing
players, 1t is no credit to town to win
with these city players.
Gilbert should not loose her prestage
if defeated by such teams. We are i
country team and in tho future woulo
like to play country teams.
