The hoboes keep coming right
along, and while they say they are
anxious to work they usually shy at
a job when it meets them square in
the face. This was demonstrated
when a farmer walked into a bunch
of 81 hoboes and tried to hire two
men out of the lot Not a man step
ped forth and said he was willing to
work. Chief Cunningham sent a
party of six of them to Farmer Peck
south Of town yesterday after they
had said they wanted work and Mr..
Peck was in town today trying to
find his six men. Not one of them
! showed up at the farm.

The baseball game Thursday after
noon between Mitchell and Parker
was a close game, which, however,
was won by Parker by a score of 2
to 0. The game was advertised on
the posters to take place between
Mitchell and Parkston, but the wires
got crossed on the similarity of the
two towns. Wilson was in the box
for Mitchell and pitched a good game
throughout as the score would indi-
cate. One of the scores was made
on a sacrifice fly to the field. Some
two or three times Mitchell had a
man on third base all ready to score.
but the hit to bring him in failed to
be produced. and the boys had to
retire %scoreless. Dexter pitched for
Parker and he put up a splendid
game for a man who had not pitched
a ball for a man who had not pitched
umpired the game.
That 1t is sometimes better to give
a vag a job than throw him in Jail
or have him work on the streets is
the idea of Judge Markham who gave
six vags in police court this morning
a chance to do something. Before
court opened Friday the Judge
received a message from The First
National bank Of Alexandria that har-
vest hands were in great demand over
there and that they would greatly ap-
preciate It If some were sent over.
