BASEBALL

The first of a series OF two
games of base ball between
Madisonville High School and
Marion High School resulted in a
victory for the local team last
Friday afternoon at Maxwell
Athletic Park. In the fifth in
ming Madisonville tied the score
and it remained thus obliging the
teams to play three extra innings
before another run could be
made. Ii was Gossage who.
when a man was on second in
the twelfth, hit the ball and
scored Canaan, winning the
game for Marion High School.
Both teams put up a good
game; indeed. many persons
stated that it was the best game
they had seen played on the
grounds.

That the failure of /. V. Run

there is but little doubt. The
recent big fires at Morganficld,
the most disastrous in all its
history, prove insignificant in
comparison because the loss fell
mostly on masters of finance and

the loss falls on and in many in
