In second place.
 Were you at the farce?
 How about the morning game?
 Step up boys and shake hands with John "Red" Waller.
 Over 15,O0O "paid-ins" saw Bridge port in it's last games. Both manag- CTS share and share alike in yester- days games to which over 12,000 paid.
 Bridgeport with its 2,50o or more rooters at the Rock made more of a din and racket than the 5000 New Ha- venites.
 Will some one kindly tell us when we will ever be given close decision? Memory fails to relate at what time this season the ump has awarded really close play in our favor.
 Bobby Hart should be credited with an assist in that put out of Snyder by Cornell at the plate in the morn ing game.
 Chief Snyder is somewhat of run getter. The old champion made both runs yesterday morning, and last week tore off the two scores in the 2-1 game with Hartford.
 The Chief will be out of the game for few days with an injured leg. Yesterday morning he hurt the mem- Der sliding into home plate; aggra- vated it the more when he made steal of second base, and finally end ed up yesterday afternoon, by putting it out in sliding into first base The last time was so bad that he had to be carried off the field, Kocher talk ing his position in right garden.
 While the crowd was at it's thickest along the first base line, Hi Ladd, left handed batter, in striking at thrown ball let the bat slip from his grasp The club went hurling through the air, grazing the domes of the bank of spectators, who luckily ducked with

A petition from this precinct was
filed with the county clerk this week
asking for vote on the saloon ques-
tion at the November election. AS
we understand the matter, the law re-
quires such petition to carry forty per
cent. Of the precinct vote cast at the
previous general election. This pre-
cinct, we are informed, cast 425 votes
at the last election, and 40 per cent.
of that number would be l7O. But
since the last election the precinct has
been cut down in size very materially
so that its number Of votes has been
greatly reduced. However, those hav.
ing the petition In hand say they have
secured I7S signatures, greater mum.
ber than would have been required for
the old precinct.--Swink Advocate.

4 Good Purchase

David Bontrager, OF Haven, Kansas,
Ia here this week on his second visit
TO "the best place out OF doors" and
has practically purchased an improved
farm few miles west of Ordway, TAX
ing an option on It before returning
home to dispose Of his holdings there.
He is enthusiastic over the crops
around Ordway. LATER-Instead OF
taking an option as above stated, Mr..
Bontrager bought the place mentioned
which is the Sam ludlow farm Of &C
acres owned by Antoine Nepper and
purchased by him about one year age
1t what was considered q good figure.
He sold, however, at an advance OF
go per acre, the pdfctasiuR price be
ing 500 per acre, aud Mr.. Bontrager
rlghtfully thinks he has bargain at
that figure. The farm is located about
three miles west OF Ordway, has a
good orchard and fair Improvements.
As soon as he disposes Of his holdings
at Haven, Kansas, Mr.. Bontrager will
move here. Mr.. Nepper's plans have
not been made known. The deal was
made by I. H. Shelton.

As to tho yieId of Boots

Some fellow with plenty OF time has
figured it out that IL it were possible
to have perfect stand OF beets, aver
aging three pounds each, the follow
ing results might be obtained: Three
pound beets spaced ten inches apart
In rows twenty inches apart, would
yield 81, 400 beets, or 81, 200 pounds to
the acre-an equivalent to AL tons.
Spaced twelve inches apart they
would make 7s,3OO pounds, or 396
tons. Spaced fourteen inches apart
they would make 81, 200 pounds, or 93.6
tons. Spaced sixteen inches apart they
would make 6S,SO0 pounds, or 29.4
tons. II the grower could get some
thing near the average weight Of his
beets, he might, from these figures,
determine about what the yield would
be,

That Legal Tdngie

The suit brought in the district
court to determine the legality Of the
action of the board OF trustees OF the
town of Ordway In deposing A. NJ.
Brenaman and electing II. /. Ohm
stead to fill the Office Of police magis-
trate, was settled by Judge RiZer ut
La Junta last Friday. His decision
upheld the boards action and declared
the election OF Trustees Steinmetz
and Hensler regular.
For many weeks after the resigna-
tion of Trustees Jacob Besch and DR..
W. P. Woods, the board met for the
transaction OF business and each time
endeavored to elect members to fill
the vacancies but to no avail, the re-
suit being always tie. Finally May
or Ward concluded to break the dead
lock and cast the deciding vote,
electipg Rev. G. S. Steinmetz and
Chas. Hensler to flll the vancancies.
At the next meeting the matter of
appointing police magistrate came
before the body and Fl. l. Olmstead
was declared the choice. Brenaman
refused to give up the books and
papers pertaining to the Office on the
grounds that the appointment was
not legal; that it required majority
of the board to elect members and
therefore the election Of Steinmet2
and Hensler was irregular
1t seems the attorneys attempted
to apply the law covering such mat
ters in cities of the first class and one
that was not applicable to towns OF
this size.
Judge Rizer contended that II
town board could not act as did the
Ordway board, all hope of filling va
cancIes would have to be abandoned.

A. B. Hulit, whose dreams included
the Kansas-Colorado railroad from
Garden City, seven-story hotel in
Pueblo, a suspension bridge across the
Royal Gorge at a height of 1000 feet
above the water, the construction Of
an electric line from Alamosa tO
Pueblo, and numerous other feats into
which local business men threw con-
siderable capital, and who left Pueblo
some time ago, has sprung up su-
premely In Chicago, where he pro-
poses, with the Resistance of West
ern backing" to establish bank with
$50, 900, 900 capital for the purpose of
backing irrigation enterprises.
Hulit had not been heard from in
Pueblo for some time, and news of his
prise to those who knew of his won
derful plans for Pueblo and the Ar
kansas valley. Hulit is said to haye
been without capital when he came to
Pueblo. He was in the same condi-
tion when he left, and yet there was
no time when he was not engaged in
attempting the promotion of some gi-
gantic scheme.
The newspapers of Chicago are now
looking up Hulit's past record as a f.
nancier, and some in Pueblo have
gone so far as to predict that the $780,
900, 600 bank will meet the same fate
as the Kansas-Colorado, the Pueblo
and San Luis Valley and the seven
story Pueblo hotel and terminal
building.
