popular and the boys were loudly ap-

Two or three nights each week is
being devoted to practice work by the
members of the band, and Leader C.

musical organization-one that is a
credit to our city. The business men
of Julesburg are giving the band a
solid financial support, therefore the
organization is experiencing no finan-
cial trouble, which is indeed a great
aid in the progress being made.

Chautauqua A Forward Move.
Every town which makes its Chau-
tauqua an annual affair has taken a
step forward. Any community which
secures a Redpath-Horner Chautau-
qua is especially fortunate.
The people should get behind this
great Chahtauqua movement,fo all
through the United States its influ-
ence for good is being felt, and it is
the one big movement which is endor-
sed by all people.

thing in America" says Theodore
Roosevelt.
IF any foreigner wants to see what
real, genuine, dyed-in-the-wool Uni

An editorial in "The American

JULESBURG WINS
FROM HAXTUN
In the Fastest Game of Season
Local Team Takes Game
From Haxtun Team by
Score of z to

The Julesburg base ball team went
over to Haxtun last Sunday and play
ed the fast Haxtun aggregation Of
ball players on their diamond. The
game was a real exhibition of base
ball from start to finish, being full
of thrilling plays on both sides and
a pitchers battle for true. The fl
nal result of the game was 2 to l in
favor Of Julesburg.
One Fred Russell, we'll known by
all the Julesburg fans, was on the
pitchers mound for Julesburg, and
he pitched a most excellent brand of
ball, striking out total of sixteen
of the Haxtun sluggers. Much cred
it of last Sundays game should go to
Russell, but he was also given splen-

bers of the local team. Only two
hits were allowed by Russell, as that
gentleman was pitching in big league
style. Although little wild at times
he pulled out of dangerous places by
Tightening up and making the Hax-
tun boys lay down the 'willow."
Weden, the Haxtun twirler, also
pitched good brand of ball and was
given good support by the rest of
the Haxtun players. The playing of
Decker, the Haxtun first sacker was
feature. Beam of Julesburg made
sensational running catch in CEN
ter field which aided considerably in
keeping Haxtun from tieing the score
in the seventh inning. Law of the
local team was the real slugger of
the day, he hitting the ball every
time up and got away with two safe
hits Tollefson, as usual did his
share for the home team by his stick
work and in playing his position be-
hind the bat. In fact all the men,
bers of the local team played base
ball from start to finish and were en-
titled to win the days contest.
1t was one of the best exhibitions
of base ball that we have seen for
some time and was witnessed by a
large crowd of enthusiastic rooters,
most of them hailing from Haxtun
