I had a little date,
And I never kicked when it was
missed a sight,
on, I've fingered up with infrm
friends until the hour was
late
And the owl cars were a F.ootin'

But that waiting was all bush-league
stuff, and never caused the
pain
Like this waiting DER in Elkhart
for the early morning train.
CHORUS

All the town has closed its eye.
For the night-time's not the bright

AS it is in sunny Chi.
on, I've waited out at Springbrook
just 10 see a baseball game,
While the sun raysed blisters on my
neck and ears.
oh, I've fingered in the parlor for
a vain but pretty dame
While the taxi DILL was sadly in
arrears
But even that was no so bad. since
it was not in vain,
Like this waiting Ger In Elkhart
for the early morning train.
CHORUS
When it's 4 a. m. in Elkhart.
Oh. the towns a desert isle,
For the daytime there is play-time,
As it is in New Carlisle.
Oh, we're waitin' in the depot for
the train long due,
While the station master slumbers
on serene,
We are list'nin to the music of the
telegraph tattoo.
So Wen be glad. yea. very glad, to
get back home again,
After waiting here in Elkhart for
the early morning train.
CHORUS
When it's 4 a. m. in Elkhart,
We can't buy a coca-cola.

The statement says:

head.
South of Lake Wygonowskoie, on
the Oginsky canal, an enemy aero

"Oh, no, ! don't mind little work

ing his fist up and down to indicate
unlimited strength, vim, vigor and
energy
But your hands are all full O
blisters, though"
"Oh, no." the marshal answered,
But the visitor wanted to see. The
marshal didn't want him to see. And
then the marshal tumbled from his
high pedestal. He was unmasked and
all his hollow pretensions of indus
try, energy and all that were laid
bare.
1t is reported on unimpeachable au-
thority that the marshal, while on the
farm. deposited himself every morn
ing beneath a large shade tree, where
he spent the days in smoking and
sleeping alternately, undisturbed by
the rattle of the threshing machine.
The only thing that could rouse him
was the sound OF the dinner bell and
he gained the distinction of being al
ways the first at the table.

showing a farm wagon beside the
door of a granary and man in over

The next picture showed thresh-

That's me up there stacking the
straw" the marshal remarked, indi-
eating a tiny human figure toiling on
top of the straw stack.
Gosh, you're some worker, all
right" declared one visitor.
"Y'bet. Does man good to do
that hard work" said the marshal
easily.

The Monroe Base Ball Club and
Moberly Athletes crossed bats at
Proctor's Park yesterday, this was
the opening game of the season a
good crowd was present not with
standing the inclement weather.
The game was well advertised and
we predict that had it not been for
the bad weather there would have
been the latgest crowd at this game
that ever attended ball game here.
Monroe as usual played ball right
from the start. While the visitors
did not stand a chance. Finally
when the game was called on
account of rain in the last half Of
the 9Th. the score was 8 to 0 in
favor of the home team. The star
feature of the game was the work
of the Monroe batter Christian and
Forrest, The rest Of the team did
themselves proud and showed that
the team this year is even stronger
than ever before and the fans OF

their moneys worth this season.
