RUNS AND HITS BY INNINGS

After a few minutes warming up the
 Eagles and Malamutes went after it. the Malamutes being at the bat and secured one run in the first inning but the noisy Eagles came back with five as their share in that half.
 Nothing much was doing until the fifth when the Afalamutes took to slaming the ball around and gathered in four runs and the way Bursik was pitching a lead of one run looked good to them. but not so with the Eagles, they were not a bit satisfied so they made little more noise and scored five runs which the Malamutes could not overcome SO the game ended with the score standing II to ' in favor of the Eagles
 The feature of this game was the al most perfect throwing of Thompson

great deal is being said recently
 in the McGiVney- Austin Worker about the prevalence of gambling in Nome and in recent issue of that sheet it
 is asserted by the ethical editor of that publication that this gambling has continued for years in our midst If this be true. some officer should dis tinguish himself by the speedy sup pression of this evil. and it is believed that the wet nurse" is the one man particularly capable of doing this job There is one thing about this matter and that is that the ethical editor of the McGivncy Austin sheet having known of this evil SO long has. until recently, kept quiet about it. This ! would be real nice subject under the head of the good of the order" to be taken up by the miners and We have no doubt that it would be most in teresting to them to learn just why having all along known of this gambfne and of it's dire consequences to the workers, and vet but little effort has been made to use the columns of their paper in exposing and trying to sup press it.

BASE
 BALL
 DOPE
STANDING OF THE TEAMS

A. B hall was filled with noisy
 ball games of the present season in which the Bears and Eagles won and
 The opening game was between the Bears and Tigers which was won by the Bears in the last half of the sev- l enth Lewis had his strikeout ball working to perfection and got twetnty- six to his credit Allan had difficulty in holding Lewis last night and as a result many Tigers got to first base after they had taken three healthy
 swings at the ball
 The Tigers scored in the first on a hit by Marr who stole second and third
 and came home when Allan dropped the third strike as Heckle famed. Weaver famed retiring the side. The Bears tied the score on q hit by Watson and a play to first which retired Baird. The Tigers got one in the second
 on two passed balls and hit by Brame.
 The Bears were sent back scoreless in their half
 In the third the Tigers scored two Ia the fourth and fifth the Tigers were shut out while the Bears got two. In the sixth the Tigers got two runs
 and the best the Bears could do was
 one tally which left the Tigers one in
 the lead at the beginning of the seventh Lewis put on a little more steam and fanned the first three up in the seventh but the Bears Were still one run to the bad when they came up for their half ! of the seventh. Lehman was first uI i and he promptly famed. Allan hit
 stole second and third Watson walked 1 and stole second Baird hit scoring Allan and sending Watson to third Bauer hit bringing in Watson for the
 winning run.

Memorial Day at coIIYer

Memorial Day, always the day of
days at ''our soldier town, may be
called an ideal day with not a cloud
to mar its grandeur nor uncomfort-
able heat 1t is sad to see the de-
crease in-the old post as each year
there is another vacant chair. This
year John Briggs has crossed over to
the ever increasing ranks and each
year the memorial boduets are added
to. OF the post 1O7 only five remain.
Two veterans from other posts were
enjoying what seems to mel one of
the best of the many observanceS of
that sacred day ever held in Collyer.
Rev.W. r. Woodward of Wa-Keeney,
delivered an address and cheered
the hearts.of- the old veterans and
made them realize their sacrifice was
not in vain; that through their efforts

CLOSING DAY OF THE CITY SCHOOL

The Wa-Keeney city school closed
its work for the year last Friday
with big dinner and field program
The upper rooms of the building
were furnished with tables and the
feast, provided for the occasion by
the patrons and children of the dis
trict, was of the quality and quanti-
ty that only people of Western Kan
sas know how to provide. After every
one had eaten to their fullest capaci-
ty the scraps" were gathered up and
the amount that was left uneaten
far exceeded the twelve t'proverbial
basketfuls.' .
After the dinner a field day pro
gram consisting of such events as tho
weather and grounds permitted was
held. The events consisted of races
of various kinds, pole vaulting, high
jumping, tumbling and pyramid
building This sort of ending for the
school was thought by the teachers
TO be more suitable than the usual
school program, and if the expression

for county diplomas; fourteen were

Morgan.
The prospects for larger eighth
grade class next year are very bright
and will probably have at least tweD-
ty members.
The school next year will undergo
more radical changes than it has un-
dergone for some time owing to the
new department which is being
added. With the facilities and
means that our school possesses there
is no reason why the Wa-Keeney
schools cannot rank with any grade
school of Western Kansas.

MARKET REPORT

Kansas City Stock Yards, June /,
1915 Cattle receipts are falling be-
low estimates at the leading markets
this week, and the result will doubt
less be tardy rise in prices later in
the week The supply here today is
6500, while the estimate was 5000;
$500 arrived yesterday, five hundred
under the estimate, and Chicago got
four thousand less than the estimate
yesterday. Rumor credits a packer
with contracting beef cattle in the
country, indicating belief in cattle
scarcity. Heavy steers sold slowly
yesterday at barley steady prices, and
they are 10 lower in some cases to-
day, although good fills today make
up for that decline. But heavy steers
have taken the lead in the demand,
and some big ones brought 80 90 to-
day others 50 80, bulk of native steers

+ Year by year there is an increase
be observed in the shortgrass coun-
try and this Increase is especially
noticeable this season. Formerly it
was thought that the limited bird
life of the open prairie was attribute
bic to the nakedness of the country
but it now seems to have been more
matter of water supply.
The one best thing to be done for
the birds is to encourage and foster a
greater and more general interest in
bird life and this at the same time
would best serve the economic inter-
ests Of humanity. And there are at
least two things which should not be
done: don't raise cats and don't buy
target guns for boys.
The desire to kill or to destroy
something is pretty strong in the
average adolescent boy and certainly
needs 40 encouragement. 1t seems
to be very much like the impulse
which causes puppy to drag your
shoe about the yard and try to worry
the life out of it for the very joy of
destruction. Most of the pups and
good many of the boys get over the
habit in time however.
Go to the ant-the big, red ant
thou sluggardl There are no weeds
in his dooryard.
Ii seems that battleships belong to
the genus ephemera. Those built
more than six years ago are consid-
cred old and decrepit and the loss of
a half dozen of them is a matter of
very little Importance, and to torpe-
do ship which may. have been the
pride and glory of a nation fifteen
years ago is considered an almost
reckless waste of ammunition.
Automotor versus antimotor seems
to be the paramount issue among the
Dunkards Just now. Old ST says they

1t is good idea to drag the streets
after every rain but why not drag
them in extremely dry--weather also.
Every time they have been dragged
this spring it has brought generous
rainfall within few hours.
The courthouse park is thing of
beauty-except when Uttered up with
waste paper, bags and boxes. Picnic
parties should see to it that they
leave no litter on the lawn. Garbage
barrels have been placed in conven-
ient places for the reception of un-
slightly waste.
Greater respect for public and pri-
vate property and the rights of the
owners should be encouraged.
