That the fame of the Leavenworth
ball team of past years has travelled far
and wide is the statement of Sam DAILY
who returned here this week. Mr..

himself was naturally quite interested
in the sport at different places where
he has been and he says they all know
Leavenworth when it comes to base
ball. The reputation of having the
fastest ball team in the Northwest out
side of the leagues is not bad thing
