Audubon Wins Fast Game.

The game of base ball last Sunday
between Audubon and Anita was the
best and most interesting game that
has been played on the local diamond
this season. The best and most en-
couraging part of the affair was that
Audubon defeated this justly famous
team by a score of 4 to 2 The work
of Kilcoin in the box for Audubon was
easily the feature of the day. At times
the Audubon boys were trifie unsteady
but they we're able to work themselves
out of these predicaments without
damage. Time after time an Anita
batter was on third base with no one
out and their heaviest batters up, but
they would be retired scoreless only to
come back strong the next inning and
to meet the same fate.
1t is sad comentary on the booster
spirit of Audubon to record that there
were a number of Audubonites roofing
and pulling for the visiting team. The
great majority, however, helped our
boys with the best brand of roofing
heard for long while. This is prob
ably the stiffest bunch of ball players
Audubon will go up against this year
and any encouragement offered them
will not injure them in the least. Why
not all be boosters instead of Knockers.
The attendance at this game was far
in excess of any previous game this
year. The Audubon boys acquitted
themselves in a creditable manner and
all deserve praise for defeating so fast a
team as Anita The visitors, likewise,
lived up to their reputation as gentle.
men and good ball players and next
time will be greeted with a still larger
crowd.

Audubon At Harlan Tournament.

A number of the members of the
Volunteer Fire Department are at Har-
Ian taking part in the Firemens tourna,
ment. Yesterday was the first day and
Audubon participated in a number OF
the races. Our boys won second place
in the Novelty Running Race and third
place in the Chiefs Race. Clarence
NiklasOn won second place in the
Leaders Race. Today our boys will
participate and all hope they will be
able to land some of the prizes offered
Manning seems to be getting a full
share of the prizes. They have a good
swift team.
A number from here who attended
say the crowds are immense, even
larger than the crowds at the county
fair. The tournament is being held at
the Harlan fair grounds.
A serious accident happened last
night during the motorcycle race. A
young Harlan boy by the name OF
Petersen was in the race and was going
at q rate of 80 miles an hour when he
lost control of his machine On round
ing the curve on the race track he was
unable to make the turn and he shot out
straight from the track through the
fence and ran into a big tree. Both
legs were broken, one arm and three
ribs, the ribs protruding through the
flesh several inches. He was taken to
u hospital where it was claimed he had
little hopes of recovery.

that no more cars we're able to Join

been made to feed at least three hun

just as cordial as though there had been

Immediately after dinner a large
crowd gathered in the park TO listen to
the Atlantic band. A male Quartet
sang a couple of good selections and
then vaudeville stunt was pulled off
that proved very entertaining. Mayor
Spencer made few remarks of well
come to the visitors and the response
on behalf of Atlantic was made by the
ever ready Attorney Boorman. His
short talk was greatly appreciated and
when he said Atlantic was glad to
come TO Audubon to associate with a
bunch of good fellows, we all knew he
was telling the truth.
We are glad that Atlantic included
Audubon in their itinerary and we
hope the live wires will feel disposed
TO make us another visit next year.

To Automobile Drivers.

Complaint has been made that many
of the drivers of autos are driving al
speed that are unsafe and in excess OF
the speeds allowed by law, and par
ticularly so within the city limits of
the Town of Audubon.
As the law is plain in regard to this
and we believe that the law is
quite well understood by the public,
we ask that the drivers of autos and
motorcycles have due regard for the
law, and we must insist that they com
ply with the law in reasonable man
ner.
We trust that this warning will be
sufficient.
