XDCWlCK COUNTY
BOYS TO LEAVE
SEPTEMBER 5TH
WILL ENTRAIN FOR CAMP
Thirty Per Cent of Sedgwick
C0unty's Quota Are Ordered
to Soon Leave to Join Uncle
Sans New Army.

A telegram was received here tom
Denver last Wednesday night from
Provost Marshall Evans by the local
draft exemption board to the effect
that 80 per cent of the net quota of
3S men to be furnished by Sedgwick
county for the new army which is
now being raised by Uncle Sam, are
ordered to entrain here Sept. 5th, and
leave for the army training camp. On
Sept. Is another 80 per cent will be
ordered to leave and on Sept. 30, 80
per cent more. The remaining 10 per
cent will leave here as soon there
after as is practical.
We believe that it behooves the
citizens of Sedgwick county to turn
out on the above dates enmasse and
give the boys, who are leaving the
community to fight for Uncle Sam, a
grand farewell" No doubt the
Julesburg Concert Band will be glad
to donate their services in assisting
in the cermonies, and the day our boys
leave for the "front" should be made
an occasion that will be long remem-
bered. Patriotism should reign su-
preme during these days when history
is being made right at our very doors.
Let's get busy and make our plans to
see the boys away in good style, and
wish them well in doing their part in
the war against the imperial German
government.

Frank Stevens, who has been the
mail carrier on rural route No. out
of Julesburg for the past two years
has resigned his position and will
soon go to Fort Sheridan, near Chi

United States army as commission
ed officer. Mr.. Stevens recently
took the examination for commits
sion in the army. He has had con-
siderable military experience, being
a Spanish-American war veteran, and
no doubt will prove valuable to Un-
Gle Sans fighting forces.

FAMOUS FLIVCER
FERCELY NAYS
LODCEPOLE TEAM
RUSSELL IN HIS PRIME
Julesburg Defeats Lodgepole
Last Sunday In Ten Inning
Pitchers Rattle at Riverside
Park by Score of l to 0.

On Sunday afternoon, the fans of
this vicinity and a large delegation
which accompanied the opposing team
witnessed an ideal pitchers battle, at
Riverside park, when Lodgepole and
the local champs clashed in ten inn
ing game-the teams being evenly
matched to degree, and proved the
most interesting game played here
this year. The final score resulted
in score of to 0 in favor of the
home team, the victory being hard
earned one, and we admit that Lodge
pole has the fastest aggregation that
our boys have bumped into this year.
From the first until the tenth inn
! ing, there is little to relate for the
sessions were extremely short owing
to the rapid work done by both sides.
In the first half of the tenth Lodge
pole repeated the one, two, three and
out stunt of the other frames, thus
retiring the side for the fatal score,
which meant to them defeat. Tolly
first at bat in the tenth, hit to short
stop, and was thrown out at first;
Brian got a walk, and Beam hit to
center field-the fielder dropping the
ball, bringing in Brian and the win
ming score.
From the tap of the gong, our own
Frederick Fussel. the pride and joy of
sport critics for miles around, had the
Lodgepole gang tanning the air in
their almost pitiful efforts to swat
the performing sphere-but to no
avail, for little Frederick had the
obediant old pill performing wonders
he and Capt. Tolly being about the
only ones to caress the little capsule
during Julesburg's time at service
only one or two drunken fly balls get
ting beyond the base line. Out of 81
men at bat, Fussell struck out 25,
against 8 for Hannah, pitcher for
Lodgepole.
1t looked as if it would be a no-hit
game for both pitchers, but Steven
son stepped up in the ninth inning
and swatted safe one to the left
field, thereby taking the honor of
no-hit game away from Lodgepole's
twirler. But Fussell pitched strictly
no-hit game, combined with rs strike
outs to his credit, makes record very
seldom reached, either by amateurs
or professionals.

played with the Lodgepole team made
several sensational catches during the

my Country"
BY GEO. w. CANNADY

"My Country tbs OF Thee" think
BY night cannot sleep wink:
Before I've prayed my heart in place.
A Patriot of the human race
My country to thy bosom borne
What tho the thunders of the storm
AS to my Mothers loving breast
Can forget to pray thy rest?
Hear now poor Frances painting breath
Still battling near the gates of death!
Always our Friend !; Deny her now
To wear the spallpeen's coward brow;
The selfish Autocratic tread
That gloats DER glutted fields of dead,
How can he love his country's
Too dark his deeds to eer atone?
Draw with the battered blade that fell
But did not melt with Lees High He'll"
The Appomattox sword of Grant;
The soul who NEVER said 81 can't"
And be resolved what We'll do now
Fight as THE Sons of God" know how,
Praying for all beneath the sun;
Pray till the last long battles won.
With all my love of "Fader Land"
Must now HATE Foster hand?
From Mother Earth across the sea
Drove to plying breast for me;
Forced in my sorrow to leave thee
For fairer fields across the sea,
For wider liberty of life,
Must l with thee DIVIDE my strife?
Must | turn traitor to my oath,
Adopting me and my Frau both?
Defending us while making "Tin"
If do SO, won't that look thin?
CHow bad seem when feel thus,
To brand myself "The lowest cuss,"
And could not stop if my Frau can
Choose out some better lERICAN.)
There is Autocratic peace;
Let further Kaiserism cease;
The beast that drinks but human blood
While roaming realms of fire and flood;
hear his Noc-turn prowling
While scentlng foot-hold on our shore!
My LAND! Must l STACKER" be;
My Country! Can l die for thee?
My Country's God, help me to chance
The fighting off so far as France!
