Wagnerites Get Walloped

The ball game played on the Malta
diamond Sunday afternoon between
Wagner and Malta teams resulted in
victory for the latter, he score stand
ing 8 to 9 in favor of our team. The
Wagner team was bunch of enthu-
siasts but the Malta girls rooted so
vociferously that the Maltaites were
inspired to win, although he contest
was rather close one. An enioya-
BILE feature Of the occasion was the
music furnished by the Malta bant.
The game was we'll attended consid-
ering it was the first game of the
season played here and had not been
advertised. Manager Cooper is fgur-
ing on some tall practicing for his
team, SO neighboring teams may
know what to expect. The Malta ball
ground is in need of seats for the
spectators. By being able to seat
the people, greater interest will be
taken in the games and larger at
tendance secured. Is there not some
method besides the subscription plan
by which money could be raised to
pay for material for seats? A dance,
the proceeds to be used for this pur-
pose, has been suggested and if this
is decided upon, every one interested
in this sport should either attend or
contribute to the success of the ball.

Estimates based on figures for the

ever before. Figures on the number
of passengers carried will not be
available for several weeks.
OF the seven thousand cars, about
two thousand went to Canadians

country indicate that about eighty
thousand people have settled in the
west, pointing to possible addition
to the wealth of this part of the.
country of about fifteen million dol
