MANY AMATEUR GAMES BILLED
Double Headers Scheduled for All the
Parks Today.
MORNING GAME AT BENSON
Interesting Gossip for All the Lovers
of the Great National Game
Come and Go of Ahe ANA
teur Players.

At Benson Eagles park the best double
bill that has been offered the fans TINS
season is scheduled to be pulled of. Inc
first fray will be between the Storz tn
umphs and the Benson Eagles. This game
has been looked forward to by all the fans,
especially those of Benson as the only OPP
portunity available to interrupt the ire
mendous stride of victory wsged by the
brewery crew. II the native birds OF Ben
son do not bring the Storz TO halt this
afternoon they will have the TRICKY
championship of 1911 wrapped up. bottled
and sealed The Benson boys have very
fast and hard hitting aggregation and II
Is safe to say they will press the Triumphs
to exhibit their best ability. Although the
Storz were set back trifle by the Mink
leaguers last Sunday, still from view OF
the game one could easily see that the
Triumphs have the best men and are
heavier with the ash furniture. In their
last encounter the beer advertisers beat
the Bensonites in a hard smuggling match,
but Il was on decoration day and the VIC
Tins took the defeat as punishment for
playing on that day. Big Tony Bruggeman
will be on the mound for the brewers,
while Murray will endeavor to cast the
horsehide mysteriously for the suburbans.
AS soon as the first game has matured
into the stage OF past affairs, the more
Interesting current events win be shown.
The Royal Achates and Val Blatz will be
the show in the second game. On last Sun
day the BlatE boys renewed one Of their
early victories by waliopipg the Papillion
ball tossers in one Of the most interesting
games OF the year. For the Royal Achates
Moran will break his twisters over the
griddle The presence of Harry Hammond
will undoubtedly be noticed in the Royal

Out at Fort Omaha two fast games are
reported TO be on hand. The Townsend
Gun Company and the Hanscom Parks will
form the first excitement manufacturers.
This will undoubtedly be the sensational
game OF the day, as both the ToWnsends
and Parks now have the strongest line
ups they have had so far this season. The
presence OF Pat Kennedy as a zipp inserter
and Woodruffs hard hitting has brought
the Townsends out of their slumping eondi-
ton. and now they are considered TO be
ring leaders In all championship struggles.
The Hansoom Parks. however. under the
judicious training OF Clarence Benson, have
been steadily forging TO the front. In
nearly every fray their famous little south

eight to twelve men via the strtke-out road

In referring to the wonder

but as it was "a free will

the board and ascertain the
valuations which have been
placed upon their property.
1t is essential that taxpayers,
generally, should investigate
the question of valuations this
year, as IL is the first year in
the history Of the county that
an attempt has been made to
assess property at it's actual
cash valuation. While we
believe that Assessor Dunford
mas endeavored to be fair and
honest in his work, it has been
no small task for him to
change the valuations in this
county from the old basis, to
the cash valuation basis, in
the short time he has had to
do the work, and it would not
be at all surprising if he has
erred in his judgment in some
instances. The only time
that these errors, if any there
be, can be corrected is when
the commissioners are sitting
as a board of equalization. If
you feel that you have got a
kick coming ON the assess
ment of your property, don't
hesitate to go before the board
and register that kick. That
is the only recourse you have
and it is the duty of the com
missioners to consider care
fully all objections that come
before them.
