The Julesburg Cubs have made ar
rangements to play the Holyoke
team at Holyoke on July 4th. There
will probably be two games, one in the
morning and another in the afternoon.
We understand that Holyoke will
strengthen its team materially for
these games, and good games should
be the result.

We note that (Ducky) Holmes,
former Western League manager and
PLAYER, has located at Sterling, and
will manage the Sterling base ball
team. We are glad to note this fact
as Sterling should now have q good
ball team, and perhaps there will be
one aggregation in this neck Of the
woods that can make things interest
ing for the fast-goin1 Julesburg Cubs.
Practically every night there are
visitors to Julesburg who cannot Sc
cure a plan to sleep on account of
our hotels being filled to capacity.
One night last week a number of
travellers were compelled to 70 on to
another town for the reason that ac-
could not be secured
here. Now this condition should be
remedied in some way if Julesburg
is to enjoy further progress. Anoth-
er hotel or first-class rooming house
would indeed be a good investment as
well as big asset to our city.
