Il, you don't believe that business is
good ask Rattle Snake Pete, who has
mt even got time to spring some OF
his latest stories.
Walter Benson has been traded to
the Glasgow Regulars until after the
series with Havre when he will again
in a Round House uniform.
Fireman A. j. Ferguson reported

making on this run the past ten days.

The girls between Glasgow and Will
liston have gotten up a petition to

last Sunday, by being hit in the eye
by a pitched ball. This put Chef out
