GOOD BALL GAMES
At (;HAjjTAljQlJA

One of the pleasant features at the
Chautauqua grounds this season has
been the good ball games which have
taken place there. Every game h2s
been good cle4n ball, and we'll worth
seeing, and they have drawn good
crowds. The ball team management
of this city have decided to continue
these games each Sunday for the bal
ance of the season, and this with the
other Sunday program which is being
put on is attracting large crowds.
Last Sunday there was q game be-
tween the local team ana Cando, and
While the score was somewhat one
sided, it was a good game of ball, and
some fast playing was done. Thera
was a good crowd and all seemed to be
satisfied. The final score stood 10 to
II in favor Of the local ball tossers.
The game was about even until the
eighth inning, when the locals sue
ceeded in running seven scores, which
was the cause of the score being SO
one-sided.
Next Sunday the local boys will
meet the fast Starkweather team on
the Chautauqua diamond, and lovers
of the National game can rest assured
| that they will see a good game.

At meeting in the Commercial
Club rooms this forenoon the propo-
sition Of the annual fair was talked
over and all phases Of it given grave
consideration. it was the will of the
various committee assembled that the
fair this year be held a little earlier
the exact date being October %, %
and 25th.
After quite a lot of discussion it
was decided tla. the fair this year be
i'll the nature OF Street Fair. OF in
other words that instead of having the
exhibits all under one roof that they
be housed in number of tents provid
ed and arranged for that purpose.
| This will get away from any conges-
tion that might arise from a large
exhibit, which b. the way, is expected
this year, as last years exhibits We're
far greater in rumber than on prev
lous years. 1t v. as decided that Kelly
Avenue from the Ramsey Drug Store
. to the alley between Herman Sharks
and the Bangs Block, and 18th street
from the Salvation Army headquar-
ters to Mann's corner be set off as the
fair grounds ana be closed for traffic,
except fair visit,1,s, during fair time.
This met the approval Of all present.
1t was decided that the premium list
| should be gotten out at once SO that
those who want to exhibit can consult
the list and choose exhibits according
! ly, especially will this be of worth to
those who wisL to exhibit canned
goods, grains, grasses, vegetables, etc.
The liberal premiums will be offered
this year as was last. This is but the
first move in getting; the fair started
and next week we will be able to give
our readers more particulars.
