ALL HOME BASE
BALL TEAM
Fifty Enthusiasts Attend Meeting on
Friday Evening and Organize and
Elect Officers and Manager
5000 is ALREADY SUBSCRIBED
Ball Park Is Being Put in Condition
and the New Uniforms Have
Already Been Ordered.

Denison is to have an all-home tai.
ent base ball team this season and
from all indications it will be one of
the fastest teams in western Iowa. For
some time the boys have been talk
ing of organizing ball team and last
Friday evening a meeting was held
at the city hall for that purpose. Over
| fifty turned out to the meeting and
before it adjourned it was decided to
organize and a board of directors was
elected. James Mill was elected man.
ager; Otto Vosgerau. treasurer, and
Andy Bell, secretary.
A number OF the boys have been
around soliciting funds from the bust
ness men and they report that ma
jority of them contributed literally to
their support, and Treasurer Vos-
gerau reports that $500 has been
pledged or in the treasury.
A complete new outfit of uniforms
has already been ordered and should
be here for the game with Dow City
on the fourth. The new uniforms will
be grey with blue "D' on the shirt.
The ball park is being repaired and
put into first class condition. The
diamond has been enlarged and will
be one of the best in the county.
Never before has there been such
good material available as this year,
and with practice and team work the
Denison boys will be able to put up
some interesting games with surround
ing towns. Nearly every evening the
boys are at practice and by the lat
ter part of the week men for the diff
ferent positions will be selected. 1t
has been several years since Denison
has had a first class ball club and the
citizens should not be slow to give
the new club their support. Below
we print the names of those who are
practicing and working out for
place on the team.

Heiden, George Klock. Roy Mote, Gail

Mr.. eAReoRkA's MOTHER DEAD.
Suddenly Passes Away at Iowa City
Week Prior to Celebrating Her
Golden Weddino.

Golden wedding.
Mr.. Joseph V. Barborka received
the sad news that his mother, Mrs
Joseph J. Barborka, passed away at
her home in Iowa City on last Wednes
day, and left for that place Wednes
day evening, where he attended the
funeral, which took place from the
family residence last Thursday after.
noon at $3.50 o'clock.
Only last week Mr.. Barborka went
down to Iowa City to help make ar
rangements for the golden wedding
anniversary of his father and mother,
which would have been celebrated on
Sunday, June 18th. and at that time
his mother appeared to be in her usual
good health. Mrs. Barborka became
suddenly i'll early Wednesday morn
ing and passed away at $3.50 in the
afternoon. The deceased was we'll
known and highly esteemed pioneer
of Iowa City, and was loved by all
who knew her. Below we print an
item from the Iowa City Daily Press
concerning her death.
"To add to her joy. her son, Joseph,
Jr. of Denison, Iowa-impelled by a
mysterious force that he cannot eX-
plain-had come to the home several
days ahead of the time planned for
the anniversary festivities and similar
ly driven by an ineXplicable impulse,
her daughter, Augusta, had come from
New York City also several days be-
fore her arrival was anticipated.
Mrs. Barborka had been a resi-
dent OF Iowa City for about 40 years,
her husband and herself coming here
from Chicago a couple of years after
the great fire there. They had resid-
ed in Iowa City ever since.
Surviving are two sons and three
daughters: Joseph, Jr., Denison; V. T.,
Point Iona, Cali; Augusta, New York
City; Mrs. Rose Hess, New York City,
and Mrs. John Strubble, Iowa City. If
their other son, Bert, is living he is
in Panama, where he was last heard
from some time ago.
MRS. Barborka was worthy wo-
man whose many friends will be in
expressibly shocked and deeply
grieved by her sudden end" Il

Not Afraid Of q Ghost.

In a village in England q man
went running into an IN st Q
o'clock at night and cried ont TIT
there was a ghost in his back ysr9'
There were fourteen men in tbe
inn, and not one of them dared to
90 home with the man and investi-
gate. There was a person who
dared, however, and that was the
landlords daughter, girl Of four
teen. Some of the men followed
her at a distance, and she went into
the yard and up to the ghost, flap
ping its arms about, and discovered
4 mans white shirt tapping on the
clothesline In a strong breeze.
That's about the way all ghosts turn
out.--Exchange.

A STRIKING CONTRAST.
Entering tho United States Senate and
the House Of Lords.


When q senator is elected in the
United States he sends his creden-
tials on in. advance. They are pre-
sented by his colleague, read from
the desk and filed in the secretary's
Office unless some objection is
raised, when they are sent to the
committee on privileges and elec-
tions for examination. When a SEN
ator elect appears he steps quietly
up to the clerks desk, escorted by
his colleague, takes an oath to sup
port the constitution of the United
States and is then led to a desk on
the outer row, which his colleague
has selected for him, where he re-
ceives the congratulations of his
friends and introductions to the
senators who care to make his ac-
quaintance. He looks as wise as
may be and waits for adjournment,
when he goes to the secretary's of
fee, writes his autograph In a big
red book for the use of the cashier
and draws his mileage.
In the English house of lords the
proceedings are very different. A
newly created peer enters that his
toric chamber in a robe of scarlet
velvet trimmed with ermine, at
tended by two fellow peers, who act
as his sponsors and escorted by the
black rod, as the sergeant-at-arms
is known. and the garter king al
arms, arraved in gorgeous tabard
The procession marches around
making low bows to the empty
throne and to the presiding officer
who is the lord high chancellor
from different parts Of the gllded
chamber, to which that imposing
person gravely responds When the
new peer reaches the throne he
kneels reverently and places upor
the empty chair, where his majesty
ought to be sitting, the patent OF
nobility he has received from his
sovereign. He is then led to the
woolsack. where the lord chancellor
administers to him the oath. Hit
sponsors next lead him to the prop
er bench. where he takes his seat
for moment Then all three rise
and bow three times at the vacant
throne and three times to the pre-
siding officer The lord high chan
cellor then leaves the woolsack anc
comes down 70 shake hands with thu
new peer and welcome him to tn,
house. TIE other peers come alss
and tender their congratulations.

His Great Weight.

Nothing expresses better the i'm
portance of a person-in his own or
In the worlds eyes-than to state it
in terms of his relations with the
physical world.
Oliver Wendell Holmes, it will be
recalled, remarked that the axis of
the earth sticks out in every mans
back yard. A bonmot Of not dis
similar kind is recorded of Wash
ington Irving.
The conversation was turned on
the pomposity of certain Ameri-
can diplomatist.
"Ah, he is a great man." said
Irving, "and in his own estimation
q very great mana man of great
weight. When he goes to the west
the east tips up"

A WARNING.


A customer during a trying on
asked her dressmaker, whose son
was at college, if he were pursuing
a general course or specializing in
any particular branch. The answer
came promptly, through monthful
of pins:
"Sanskrit, ma'am He's specializ
ing in Sanskrit ] can't say but I'd
have preferred something a bit
more usual in the way of education
something more plain tailor made
for every day like. Sanskrit's such
a fussy study"
Her criticism, if oddly worded,
was comprehensive and not unin-
telEgent. Less reasonable and equal

an old farmer in Remote hill VII
