DID YOU SEE
THE PONY?

Of course we mean the pony that
is to be given to the boy or girl Sc
curing the most votes in the Rich
mond Pony Contest that is being put
on by merchants of Wauseon and
which closes October End.
Well that pony was around to
see US last Saturday all trigged out
with a brand new saddle and bride
and just as cute as a pony can be,
gentle as akitten, 2h years old and
just awaiting to belong to some nice
boy or girl. We just wished we
could have that pony, but we can't
and some boy or girl who lives in
Wauseon or the country round about
CAN. We told you all about how
to get that pony in last weeks Tri-
bune and this week we want to urge
you boys and girls to get busy. Here
at the Tribune office we are Just
anxious to give out the votes that
will help some boy or girl to get
that pony. Remember, we give 5000
votes for every years subscription
of $1.5O that is paid in to us whether
its for back subscription or in ad-
vance or new subscription, and its ut
the same rate whatever the amount
paid in on subscription, for instance
$1,00 would entitle the payer to
1000 votes, rs cents to 1900 votes and
so on. At the stores mentioned in
last weeks Tribune they are just as
anxious to give away those votes as
we are. Look them up, urge your
folks and your friends to trade with
them and to subscribe for the Tri-
bune.

BASE BALL

Although the day was cold, about
one hundred fans accompanied the
Ball Team to Bryan Sunday, speci-
al car was run over the T. & /.
The game started off in good
shape with Bohn and Edison as the
batteries for Wauseon and Clark and
Bromwell for Bryan, neither side
was able to score until the fourth
inning when Bohn hit a short. fly
IN the infield and was safe at first,
he went to third on an over throw.
Burgoon the next man up hit single
over short, Bohn scoring. The game
stood l to until the sixth inning
when coupled with three hits and
assisted by their umpire Bryan put
over three runs. In the seventh
with some more umpire help they
sceTed one more run. Wauseon's s
chances were killed in the eighth in
ling by two men being called out
at second by Bryan's umpire that
were safe and again in the ninth
after Pilliod hit to deep left the ball
striking more than five feet inside
the line Bryan's umpire never looked
to see where the ball struck but sim
ply said fouf ball.
1t can be said that the Wause IN
Team were real bunch of sports
and their umpire was square on both
sides. To lose game When the
umpire steals it IS not really con-
slde--Nt being beaten.
