SOMEBODY LIED

In Tuesday evenings Empire there was an account Of ball game played between the Empire carrier boys and Douglas kid team In the account the Juneau paper said that the Elm plro boys won by a score Of 9 to q.
 The truth Of Che matter is that tho Douglas boys won that game by score Of II to |. Tho contest did not go tho full nine Innings or the score would have been still worse. The Empire kids had to catch the 2:30 ferry SO only about seven in- nlngs were played.
 Prevaricating about the result of the game is not the worct Of the crimes that can be laid on tho Em- plre carriers. as they "swiped" the stakes of the gamo. It seems that the Empire put up bottle of cider for each Of Che members Of tho win- ming team. and although the lads from the capital ciS were over whelmlngly defeated. ;hoy deliber- ately drank the cider in the pres enco Of the whole Douglas team.
 The Douglas kids want also to tell th6 world that they have now wallopod the Juneau team three games in succession.
