The Court OF Honor team came
down from Pueblo last Sunday and
went back on a freight. They might
have waited for passenger but they
needed the freight to haul home the
goose eggs they collected while In
Ordway. The score at the windup
stood 4 to s In favor OF the home team.
Our boys damned out three runs In
the first inning and the visitors never
caught their breath till the sixth,
when they tied the score, making
another 10 the ninth, but our bunch
put over couple In the last and car
ried of the hOnOrs. Deneston pitched
for our boys and proved himself not
only at home In the box, but a good
and reliable batter as we'll. Several
other Of the Ordways did good work
with the stick. The attendance was
not as large as it should have been for
such a classy game. The White Sox
were originally scheduled to be here,
but later the Courts were substituted.
