COP ANOTHER GAME
Locals Ad One More Victory to
Their Belt and new Park
Properly Opened

Last Sunday afternoon a good
crowd of fans gathered at River
side ball park and saw very i'll
teresting game of ball between
Julesburg and Sedgwick teams.
The day was ideal for playing
and those attending got the full
worth of admission fee as both
teams hit up Il lively pace thru
out the play.
Much work on the diamond is
still needed to put it in fast play
ing condition, but aside from
this drawback, the dedication of
the new park was a big success
and from this ON until the close
of the season, the local manage
ment has place to play and far
enough from town to not modest
the quietude of the city at large.
Twomey was on the mound for
the Ewing sterlings and held the
visitors safe thru-out and only
gave way to Terry in the eighth
inning after having the game
safely on ice, who continued the
good work, holding the oppon-
ents runless and whiting two
batsmen. Three pitchers worked
for Sedgwick but the pill all
looked alike to Julesburg, and
the game ended with score of
eight to four.
Towmey and Harrison starred
with the stick for the home boys.
each getting two hits, which was
responsible for four of the eight
runs made by Julesburg. Har-
rison's two safetys were the long
est drives made during the game
and he says that had the pitcher
more steam the second hit would
never been found. In all, the
game was good, a number of er-
rors marked the usual good work
of both teams but the condition
of the diamond was such to make
real league ball impossible.

CURIOUS FRENCH MUD
MADE "TOOTSIES" SORE

London July l5.-The correspondent Of
the Daily News at British headquarters
In France, under date Of July 13, in the
course Of long review of the operations
since July 7, says:
In the earlier days of the advance
the heat was extreme. II was very
hard to get water to the men in front,
and they suffered from heat and thirst
Then there were tremendous rains. and
the hardships from the cold and wet
were even worse than the heat.
The condition Of the trenches became
indescribable, and progress along them
was sometimes impossible even when the
water had subsided, the mud being so
deep and tenacious. 1t still remains so
deep that in many cases the men have
wrenched their feet out of their shoes.
THE bombers found it impossible to
throw bombs with any effect because
they were fixed immovable up to the
knees in liquid glue. The mud is so
sticky and glutinous that many believe
it was doctored in some way by the
enemy-a suspicion which has been deep
ened, II it was not created, by the fact
that II seems to produce a great many
sort feet"
