NO BASEBALL GAME.
Elkharts and Haneoek's Match Called
OFF Because of Grounds.

The condition of the baseball dia-
mond and outfield at the driving park
were in such shape as result of the
recent visit of the circus that it was
found necessary to cancel the game
advertised between the Hancock and
the Elkhart Blue Sox.
The announcement of the abandon
ment of the game caused much disap-
pointment to the baseball fans as the
day was ideal for ball game and
there doubtless would have been a
good attendance.
