Some Ball Game
at Fairfax Sunday
A Pretty Little Demonstration Where
in Lies The Glory of An Honor
able Defeat

Yes! We nearly won a game Of
ball from Fairfax Sunday, and how
the deuce we happened to lose is my
stery. The only way we can figure it
out is that Gus Schildknecht is too
blamed honest. Gus had the honor of
calling out half the game and could
have won it just as well as not.
Of course it would probably have
raised an interesting argument, but
Joe Geroy was along, and when it
comes to crossing vocabularies Gus
and Joe usually handle the matter ar
tistically.
Brace Allen was the big frog in that
pond. He was first man up and the
first ball thrown to him looked so good
that he took two bags on it. Gibbs
hit out hot one which passed short
and landed Allen at home plate.
Aside from this there was no real
spectacular playing. Several times
the boys managed to get as far as
third, but that is where Gus honesty
interfered.
The Fairfax boys made their first
score in the third and the winning
score was brought home in the fourth
We always welcome combat with
those boys for they always play nice
clean game and we take off our hats
to them in times of our defeat.
Gibbs played rafting good game
and the way those goose-neck curves
came across the plate was startling
He has eleven strike-outs to his credit
and the Fairfax man has seven.
Mr.. and Mrs. E. A. Lyman, R. A
Cooper and wife, Jas. Whittet ane
wife, Ed. Wells and wife, Mesdame:
Gibbs and Neiman, Joe Geroy, Arthur
Cain, Ben Everett, Henry Miller ant
Andrew Kenney were spectators from
here who enjoyed the game immensely

Will See Better
Base Ball Games
Enthusiasts Got Together Last Fri
day Afternoon and Or
ganized
OE GEROY WILL BE MANAGER
Money Raised by Dance And Sub
scription Will Mean a Good
Team

A bit late has the real base ball
spark emerged from it's slumbering
embers, but it has been famed by sew
eral live fans until there is a real fire,
and this fire will burn throughout the
rest of the season.
That handful of enthusiasts who
gathered at Geroy's Friday afternoon
put base ball matters on a proper
basis. They talked the situation over
in detail and acted wisely.
1t was decided to call upon the bust
ness men for a small contribution and
the money required has nearly all
been raised.
Joe Geroy was elected to manage
the team for the season. Joe does
things up brown and his good judg-
ment will be relied upon in the selec-
ton of the warriors to represent Red
wood Falls in the national game"
Gus. Schildknecht was elected sec
retary-treasurer and has nothing to
do but keep straight-maybe umpire
game now and then-and always
root.
Milo Lende of Olivia has been hired
as catcher for the organization, and
Manager Geroy is at present negotiat-
ing with Henry Gagnon. With these
two on the nine, the rest is easy
with the proper support.
Now that we have the assurance OF
a good team let the people of the city
and the business men do their part il
supporting it. Revive little of that
old-time spirit which once prevailed
when, on the occasion of a mid-week
game the business houses closed for g
couple of hours and everybody went
to the game. 1t will do you good ano
you'll all feel better for it.

The conservative, cautious, careful

Never before has he had, car acci-

Funny thing about a start, some time
it has a way of degenerating into a
startling.
As nearly as we have been able to
learn, something, goodness only knows
what, happened a mile-and-a-half
from everywhere, somewhere in the
vicinity of Wabasso and after trying
to make three overworked wheels do
the work of four, William gave it up.
Then Father Weldon came to the res

Under his fathers pilotage the

will probably be all assembled and
ready for another trip Sunday.

Illinois Trip is One
Of Great Interest
F. r. LObdell Enthusiastic Over
Things Seen On Journey Through
Central States
ELECTRIC ROAD is FAvoRITE
Facts That Will Prove Helpful In
Future City improvements Are
Noted

Messrs. Ira Reynolds, Frank Lob
dell and l. N. Bopes have returned
from an extensive trip through Hi
nois and Iowa.
Their first stop was made at Rock
Island, Ill. From there Mr.. Bopes
went to his old home and Mr.. Rey-
nolds and Mr.. Lobdell visited the
places most closely associated with
the past life of Mr.. Reynolds.
Mr.. Lobdell in an interview with
The Gazette cited many interesting
things seen on their trip. One of the
most remarkable was the dam which
spans the Mississippi River at Keo-
kuk.
At this place the river is about a
mile and half wide. The dam, built
entirely of concrete, is broad enough
and high enough for the electric
trains to cross the river on it's top.
In construction it is a perfect marvel
of engineering skill. The power dew
eloped at this dam is proven to be at
least 100000 horsepower.
Throughout Mr.. Lobdells' journey
he had his mind and eyes open to all
possible civic improvements. The cleo
trio railways, and ornamental street
lighting particularly engaged his at
tention, and he gathered a great deal
of important information on these
subjects.
/ Aledo, which was Mr. Reynolds
home town, Mr.. Lobdell says is a town
of about $500 people-and every one
hustler. This town paid 5000 for
& its first six miles of electric road, and
counts the money we'll spent. All
through that section of Illinois cleo
tricity is rapidly gaining in popular
is loud in it's praises. 1t is particular
tly popular because of the ease with
(which mooted freight questions are
disposed of with its help.
Il Mr.. Lobdell has a large amount OF
time-and-money saving information
on ornamental street lighting which
will prove of great benefit when Red.
wood Falls decides she is ready fol
cluster lights. In his careful study
of these civic features Mr.. Lobdel
has again proved himself a wide
awake President of a wide-awake
Commercial Club.

Wedding Tomorrow
Miss Myrtle WOlvertOn And Cleveland
Cherry Wed at High Noon
Tomorrow

Miss Myrtle May Wolverton and
Cleveland Cherry will be married to-
morrow, Wednesday, at high noon, at
the home of the brides parents, Mr..
and Mrs. John Wolverton.
Rev. c. F. Martin will read the mar
riage service in the presence of about
fifty friends and relatives. The brid-
al couple will be attended by Misses
Ethel Duncan and Ethel Wolverton,
cousins of the bride, and her brothers,
George and Thomas Wolverton.
After the ceremony an elaborate
wedding dinner of several courses will
be served, after which the young peo-
pie will start provided they make
their escape) on trip which will take
them away for about ten days. They
will spend the summer in Redwood
Falls, but expect to go to Kansas City
in the early autumn.
The brides gown is of white char
meuse draped with shadow lace, and
she will carry white bridal roses. The
bridesmaids will wear white crepe de
chine and carry pink carnations. Lii
les of the-valley, ferns, carnations
and smilax will be used in profusion
through the rooms and on the tables.
The bride is so we'll known in Red
wood Falls that any comment as to
her social standing or worth are en-
tirely unnecessary. She is the only
unmarried daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Wolverton, and has been very popular
among the young people of the Chris
tan church since she made Redwood
her home.
Mr.. Cherry is a recent graduate of
the Kansas City School of Veterinary
and is working towards a position as
government inspector. While not per-
sonally known to The Gazette, he is
spoken of by all who know him in
terms of praise, and as one quite
worthy of Miss Wolverton.
The out-of-town guests who will be
present tomorrow are: Mrs. Hillman
of Berwick, N. D., Miss Duncan of
Seney Mich, and George Wolverton
of Seney.

A TIP TO THE KICKER

If you are a kicker and see
the shadows of failure in ev-
erything that is proposed to
help your town, for heavens
sake go into some canyon and
kick your shadow on the clay
bank, and give the men who
are working to help build up
the town a chance. One long
faced, hollow-eyed, whining,
chronic-kicker can do more to
keep away business and capital
from a town than all the
droughts, short crops, cyclones
and billiards. combined.

IT gives us pleasure to notify you

The sound of his toll came, muffled,
to the ears of the hidden man.
Cautiously Kent worked his way,
now in the stream, now through the
heavy growth on the banks, until he
gained the roadway. Once there he
went forward to the front gate of
Hedgerow House. The bricked side
