Rev. Edgar Locates at Greeley

Rev Samuel Edgar. former pas
tor OF the Reformed Presbyterian
church OF this city, was a La Junta
visitor few days last week. and on
last Thursday evening delivered n
very interesting lecture on War
Conditions In Turkey" In which he
recited some Of the horrors Inflict-
ed upon the Armenians by that des-
picabie race OF people. one Of which
was that Of casting representatives
OF that race into deserted wells.
pouring oil on them. and then set
ting them on fire. Even the most
vivid Imagination could not con-
ceive OF the horrors OF which the
Turks made the Armenians the VIC
Tins. and the only way We could
possibly hear Of them would be
through the testimony OF some one
who was personally cognixant OF
them. as very few OF these tales ever
appear In tho newspapers.
Rev. Edgar left last Friday morn
ing for Greeley. Colo. where he will
officiatc as pastor OF the Reformed
Presbyterian church OF that city dur
Ing the coming year.

Some Ball Game Last Sunday

All of the baseball fans in La
Junta, including the Senegambian
experts, Nobs and Harry. are of the
unanimous and frequently expressed
opinion that the game last Sunday
between Trinidad and La Junta was
about the best exhibition OF base
ball ever pulled off in this city.
The Opera House barber shop or
acle says, you sure don't have to
go way back east to see real game,
no more, for we done got the goods
right here in good old La Junta.
Why that game last Sunday was Just
as good as was ever played In any
old worlds series, and I'm right
here to calculate and tell all you
people that l knows what I'm talk
ing about. 1t was sure some game"
Whereupon Nobs signified his en-
thusiastic assent, by also ejaculat-
ing. Say, boy, your looks Is decep-
tive. You is good deal wiser than
your physiogonomy would indicate.
You sure said something when you
made those few but pertinent re-
marks. also proclaims II to the
world that It was sure some game,
without the least temerity as to the
prospect Of being successfully con-
tradicted. II was sure some camel"
Where the expert opinion is so un-
animous the general opinion Is apt
To- be more or less Of the same ma
ture. The story OF the scoring IL
short and sweet. as only three runs
were made during the entire game.
Trinidad scored one run In the first
inning on q hit and an error, but
could not register after that, al
though they came very near It In the
eighth. In this inning Trinidad sue
ceeded In filling the bases with no
one out. The next man up hit to
the pitcher, who turned and made
lightning throw to second. from
which point the ball was relayed to
~ ~ 'ohpiStiuS u uOuuie piay lue
Trinidad man on third was a little
slow in making start for the home
plate. and Bockewitx succeeded IN
mailing him At the plate when he
made a lightning throw to Love.
La Junta's only runs came in the
hinth when Kinsell walked. Bocke-
WITT was safe on n fielder's choice
and double steal and single by
O'Byrne.
The feature OF the game was the
air-tight playing OF both teams In
the pinches. La Junta has not lost
a game this year.

soldier boys who are now undergo

Fort Riley. The box was lost In
making the journey to Fort Riley,
but finally reached its destination.
and that its contents were appreci-
ated Is attested by letter received
by the Tribune few days ago, as
follows:
We will appreciate It very much
II you will be kind enough to express
through the Tribune" the thanks of
the La Junta boys at Fort Riley for
the box OF eats prepared for us by
the La Junta ladies. Unfortunately.
II was buried in the express office
for about a week, but II wasn't hurt
a bit. We held La Junta meeting
in draw back OF our barracks to-
night and when the meeting was
over there wasn't much left. No use
to attempt to tell how much We en-
joyed II.
We are all getting along fine and
enjoying our work immensely. The
natives around here tell us that Fort
Riley Is the hottest spot in Kansas.

 Every precaution," said the state ment, Twill be .aken 10 make it cer. tain that the registration Nil he ecu. ducted with exact justice.
 "The law is specific and allows no latitude to the boards. either in the matter f registration or in the later matter cf exemption from service In fact the law is selfeXecuting. Every man within the age limits fixed by the solectiye service act must register and the penalty of the law for evasion of registration will fall not only on the man who fails to appear, but on any member of a registration board wh7 may he shown tt be in collusion with the pcrsc who attempts to es- cape his duty.
 "Furthcr than this. thc roeisrat on boards will never ao. as exemption boards. except in certain specific ease. such as where young man who has registered shall claim to be employed in a federal state or local office. and thereby does not come within the ev- empti clause of the statute In a case like this the facts must be en CT cd officially and attested.

of Chicago and Charles Davis. of the Army and Navy Hospital here both testified that they had overheard his remarks at a public meeting Monday night, and that he criticised the nation severely for some things and urged aeain.t conscripticn, and the attitude of the speaker was of such an un- pathriytic nature that it aroused anger among the hearers and would have led 70 violence if they had been continued They said Seym our stated ths was a commercial war. and that it had been inspired by Wall Street, and that the people when better edu- cated would not tolerate cOnscription
 Seymour tcok the stand and gesticu. lated and spoke with much emphasis.
