Virginia Athletic Club
Pulls Off Triple Play

In a game in which lightning triple
play was a feature, the Virginia Ath-
letic Club took hard-fought game from
the Fort Myer nine yesterday afternoon
on the latter's ground, 8 to 4.
The triple play occurred in the second
inning, when, with man on first and
second, a fast grounder was driven to
Reynolds at second. He touched the
bag, shot the ball to Hileary on first
who in turn heaved it to third in time
to catch the runner off that station.
Mood, the first baseman, and Castor
the pitcher, for the Fort Myer nine,
starred for their team.

that the winner is coming later, so |
am making arrangements for the good
times that will eventually happen"

lnterurban Railroad.

D B. Rogers was at Santa Fe re-
Gently and found the people very
enthusiastic over tie new interur-
ban railroad building into that
town. He says that it was intimat-
ed that the road could be induced
to come to Monroe City. In any
event the Commercial Club and in
fact all live citizens should do all
possible to get the road to build in
to this city and then it could so on
and tap the road which is to be
built north of this city.
Interurban roads are being built
and the towns which get them first
are to be congratulated.
Monroe City citizens should not
stand here idle but should get busy
and get one or more interurban
roads to build into Monroe City,
