times of Methuselah too place this
week in New York's east side district
The event was the celebration OF a

table were gathered one hundred and
eighty-seven guests. whose total GEES
amounted to tA.960 years. or more
than seven times the length OF the

OF a large number OF the guests those

years TO the credit Of each person pres

allotted by the Bible as the extreme <
Of man. Five of those present, how
ever, had passed the nvc score mark,
while thirty-one were over ninety
years of age. The oldest guest had
just passed his ono hundred ana four

The ball game Sunday was a

to be interesting, and while the re-

this part of the state are not even
amusement for the Greeley boys and
Manager Collins should arrange to

The home team could have shut
cut Longmont yesterday, but after
the fifth inning the score was 13 to
0. and the local twirler, in order to
give the fans little diversion, just
tossed the ball to the visitors anil
let them hit it. He filled the bases
and couple of wild throws put three
of them across the slab
The threatening rain and the poor
showing made by Longmont drove
most of the crowd home when the
game was half over.
