SELECT FIVE DEvOTEEs OF
HOOP GAME FROM HIGH
SCHOOL AFTER GETTING Sc
WE'RE DRUBBING LAST WEEK.

For fear that 1t might have eScap-
ed your attention, kindly take notice
that the high school quintet was
third rallied last night by the town
basketball team, the score being 40
to Al. But as long as Aultman street
runs up and down and also down and
up the students will be complaining
about not emerging from the struggle
with the honors of the hoop game in
their tentacled grasp.
Being upright and ambitious young
men the winners have requested that
due apology be made in their behalf
for winning the game. They confess
that it came somewhat in the nature
of surprise, but the high schools
manner of play was such that even
in mood of charity they looked
like tightwads.
The students would not ask any
body to record that they played bas-
ketball. They went through lot of
motions. but these so-called move
ments did not seem to get them any
where. Every time somebody turn
ed loose somebody maliciously bump
ed it on the brow and if it didn't go
shooting into basket, somebody
mauied. mangled and muffed it. The
high school contingent showed a
marked reversal of form over their
efforts the week previous. But why
go into details, the rest of the dis
tance is too horrid to relate
The fates were kind to the town
aggregations last night, as the girls
from the county seat humbled their
sisters who are matriculated at the
high school by a score of 23 to 10.
The losers suffered their second de-
feat at the hands of the victorious ag-
gregaton within the last two weeks.
1t was like taking marbles from a
child. There was no chance for the
high school to get inside the money.
The boys teams lined up as fol-
lows.

ore that is responsible for the 2-G to
be at present inactive. This famous
ore-bearing ledge is mineralized for
three miles, running east and west.
The Metals Explorations company
holds the key to a situation consider
ed by mining men as of unusual i'm
portance, being at the easterly and
lower slope of the ledge. which is
perfectly apparent and identical in
formation with the 2-G and other
rich holdings There are several
tunnels on the Metals Exploration
claims. the most important of which
is at present in about 20 feet. The
location of the mine is ideal for eco
working, being accessible
from the valley. and with the best
of drainage.
Messrs. Opdyke and McVicker
brought back samples of ore which
will be assayed at different places and
results compared. Prospecting is now
being done, to determine the possi-
BILE extent of the ore bodies, and the
result of the exploration of the ledge
will determine future action by the
owners of Metals Exploration.
Mr.. McVicker left for the east yes
terday, being called by the serious ill
ness of his brother-in-law 1t is his
intention to return when circum-
stances will admit. and look further
into this Tybo proposition. 1t looks
good to him--he is an old mining
man, and he says. ~ can't keep away
from it If | try
Meantime. Mr. Opdyke may be re-
lied upon to furnish any further
technical and other facts relative to
Tybo and Metal Exploration. to any
one who is interested.
