League Standing
sProtested game.


to Rocky Ford Sunday in somewhat
disabled state to give the melon roll
ers chance to revenge their two de-
feats this season, but it was with
sigh of relief that the Fordites heard
the umpire call the game at the be-
ginning of the tenth inning on account
of rain, and they hurried from the
field to make sure that he had no
chance to start it again.
1t was probably the greatest game
ever played in the Arkansas Valley,
and there is no question but that it is
the record for this year. The score
was / to / in the tenth, and there was
no indication of weakening on the
part of either pitcher. Neither run
was earned and it looked as if the
game could go on indefinitely.
Fred Littler pitched one Of his
best games and that means a lot.
Bud Littler could not go up to catch
him, but Johnny Coleman proved
very good substitute and caught a
splendid game. Only two hits were
made off of Fred in the game and one
of these was of the scratch variety.
He struck out five and the Rocky
Ford batters could only hit the ball
to the infeld where it was always
picked up. Whalen's three base drive
which brought in the lone tally was
the only really clean hit made of
him. Jackson, the Rocky Ford pitcher
also pitched fine game and struck
out fourteen men. He only allowed
three hits and Lamar's one run was
due to bad error.
Henry, the first batter up hit safe
ly for one base, stole second, and
when Skinner made an infield drive
to the shortstop, the later overthrew
first and Henry came home. This
lead remained with Lamar until the
sixth inning when Culp for Rocky
Ford got first on an error and came
home on Whalen's three base hit.
That ended the scoring. The game
was replete with fine plays as the sew
enteen assists with only two errors in
will be replayed on July IL at Rocky
Ford, making double header.
At Las Animas at the same time
there was another pitchers battle be-
tween Starr of La Junta and Renell
of Las Animas. The former allow
ing only two hits and the latter four.
The score a to 1 in favor of La Jun
ia was mostly due to Las Animas'
errors.
La Junta is now in second place
and comes to Lamar next Sunday for
a game with the leaders. 1t will be
some game as both Littler and Starr
are now going their best and these
are the two best teams in the league.
Turn out and give the champions a
rousing reception. They are entitled
to your support and encouragement.
Game will start at 2:30 sharp.

To Enforce Liquor Laws.

That the federal cout'will lend its sup
port in making West Virginia a "dry''
State after July was the statement made
by Judge Dayton while several prisoners
were entering their pleas and receiving
their sentences. There were many indict-
ments returned by the grand jury Tor
violations OF the internal revenue laws,
and the prisoners were auaigned. When
Philip Mace entered plea OF guilty, he
was sentenced to spend 30 days in the
Mineral county Jail and pay fine OF 500.
In passing sentence Judge Dayton said
that this was the last term OF court when
lienency would be shown those who
violated this particular law, and he made
the statement upon the authority OF the
district attorneys office. District Attor-
ney Walker followed the court with a
statement that his office hereafter will ask
and insist upon the court inflicting severe
punishment upon all persons who violate
internal revenue laws, ,and his office would
use every effort to kill the practice OF
bootlegging. Judge Dayton replied that
he was inclined to grant the request, and
from this time hence all persons engaging
in the unlawful sale ofintoXicating liquors
will pay the severest penalty.-MartiHS-

An Indefinite Question.

contributor to Everybody's Magazine
tells of two men who were working or
the highway in small town in Maine
AS they worked, they discussed various
people and affairs of national importance
Finally one of them referred to the Sec
retary OF War, and the other asked:
"Joe, who is the present Secretary oi
War ?"
"Why, | don't remember his name, "
replied Joe, "out here comes old Uncle
David Blake. Well ask him."
AS the old man drove up, the laborers
called out, "Uncle David, can you tell lis
who the Secretary Of War is ?"
Uncle David thought deeply for some
moments. "Well, oughtter know, but,
bless me, can't seem ter remember" "
And he drove on, thinking deeply. Soon
the two men saw Uncle David coming
back, and when he came within hailine
distance, he called out

mean, anyway ?"

An Incident of the Rifle Pits.

An Irish soldier who had, single hand
ed, captured two of the enemy, explained
his feat by saying, "Begona, surrounded
Them" The explanation would almost
describe an exploit OF young Confeder-
ate soldier in one of the Virginia cam-
paigns.
He was on picket duty between the
lines OF two armies, and was told to keep
concealed among the bushes, and if pos
sible determine the position OF some rifle
pits from which some sharpshooteTs were
firing upon the Confederate outposts.
Keeping himself hidden as well as he
could, he cautiously advanced toward the
spot where he supposed the pits to be.
He then threw himself on the ground and
began to watch.
After vigil OF ten minutes, he saw the
head of Union soldier rise up, appar-
emily out Of the ground, not more than
thirty yards in front OF his position. The
man gazed about for few moments, and
then disappeared into the pit.
Alarmed at the neaTneSS of the enemy,
but deSirous OF securing all the informa-
ton he could before returning TO camp,
the Confederate soldier lay perfectly still
and watched. Three times he saw the
Federal soldier rise, look toward the Con-
federate army, and then disappear. Al
last he made up his mind 10 charge the
pit and capture The lone occupant. So he
seized his rifle and silently crossed the
intervening space One look into the pit
so unnerved him that he was on the point
OF dropping his gun and making run for
the nearest cover. Instead OF one SEN
try, he found that he had charged pit
that contained three men, each armed
with rifle. The Federal soldiers, how
ever, were equally astoniShed.
The Confederate suddenly saw that he
had the advantage, for he had his gun ac-
tually presented, while the guns OF the
others were lying on the ground beside
them. So he exclaimed, "Throw up
your hands at once, or ! will kill the last
one OF you - Without stopping to argue
the impoSSibility OF his accomplishing
such a result with single shot, the Fed
eral soldiers promptly put up their hands.
The captor then ordered one OF the pris-
onerS to toss the guns out OF the pit. AT
the same time he called out, Come on
boys I've got three OF them in here !"
Thinking that they were eset by over
whelming numbers, the Federals Sullenly
passed out the guns, ana were then or
dered TO come out OF the pit and fall IN
line, single file. Fifteen minutes later a
Confederate captain was Saluted by pri-
vate OF his company, who reported that
he had captured three OF the enemy in a
rifle pit between the lines OF the two
armies, and requested that detail Of
soldiers be sent 10 bring in three rifles
that would be found lying on the ground
beside the PIT.

To M. s. B.

Lines TO my little friend, NJ. S B. ! wish TO tc
him about little drummer boy and his dog
think he will enjoy it.
Here the little drummer lies,
With his head on his drum,
He has closed his sleepy eyes,
And his prattling mouth is dumb.
All the morning he has beat
His drum. and marched about,
Till his busy little feet
Are quite tired out.
Now the grass is his bed,
And his pillow is his drum
But his weary little head
Finds il sweeter than plum.
His dog sits watching by.
Looking very wise and trusting,
And he keeps careful eye
On his little Master Marshall.
And il another dog should dare
To disturb his quiet dOZe,
Shep would surely pull his hair
And perhaps pull his nose.
For faithful dog is Shep.
And he loves his little friend;
And when others are away
He is present 10 defend.
