Second Game.

The second game promised 70 be as
exciting as the first. but the Bethany
boys, after putting Up a hard night. went
completely 20 pieces in the seventh and
allowed brentwood to score six runs,
which was enough to win the game.
Both teams played loosely in the field
and the contest was not nearly so inter-

Suburbanites are charged up with four
errors and the Churchmen with two.

out, so he doubled to right, scoring the
Bedford man. who is also on the roster
as a sub these days. When George went
to bat in the NTH he saw Maps camping
on three sacks with two out. There had
been two out when Flick went 20 bat

in the eighth inning he found the cush-

in his address took issue with the
remarks made earlier in the even

the making of mining shares assess

follows:
Mr.. Chairman, Delegates to

would be required, and yet, to prop

Mining Laws necessarily involves a
consideration of the subject of In
sane Mining Laws or what is sub
stantially the same, the insane lack
of proper mining laws.
Nevada is a glaring example oil
