BRITISH PREMIER
 PLANS TO MAKE IRISH STATEMENT I

LONDON, Dec. 9.-It is announced that Premier Lloyd George will make an important statement on Ireland on the opening of the house of commons at noon Friday.
 The terms of the statement was doubtless discussed at the conference between the premier, Andrew Bonar Law, the government leader in the house of commons; Sir Hamar Green
 wood, chief secretary for Ireland, and several officials of the Irish depart
 ment, which was held in Downing street this afternoon, but no official | indication was given tonight as to what decision had been reached. | Many reports are current in the lob l bies as to what the premier is likely to
 say. It is believed in some quarters that he will announce the possibility | that the government will declare mar tiaI law in Ireland, although at the
 same time indicate the readiness of
 the government to enter into conver- sations with the moderate Sim Fein- CTS with a view to settlement
 The parliamentary correspondent of
 the London Times says that tlle pre-
 mier is expected to announce more fully than heretofore the conditions on which the government is willing to open official negotiations and may in dicate how far he regards the Sim Fein conditions acceptable.
 Official circles do not conceal that the premier desires a settlement, but intimate that he is uncertain as to whether the present moment is most propitious.
 Both the Times and the Daily Mail emphasize the importance of the pre-
 mier's interviews with Mgr. CIune. The
 Mail asserts that the whole position has been considerably changed by the bishops message from Michael Collins commander of the republican army.

HOME TEAM LOSES.
contributed ]

The seventh league game of
the season was lost to Kooskia
by score of IA to 9.
The local boys doing wonder
full work up till the 7th inning,
when the score read 9 to in
favor of Cottonwood, through a
few errors on the part of the in
field also outfield their oppon-
ents managed to run in eight
scores which put the game, by
the end of the 7th inning in fav-
or of Kooskia.
Schurmann, Cottonwood's SOU
tn paw, held the Indians to two
hits, and struck out 10 men.
The Indians knocked two out of
the infield which probably could
have been fielded, and these
were all that went out of the dia-
mond.
The Cottonwood boys did
splendid at the bat, gettinp sew
eral safe hits, Rookie and Albers
each making a 2 base hit.
Under the management of T.
Z. Keith and the coaching of DR..
Orr, the boys are confident of all
succeeding games. 1t must be
remembered that Cottonwood is
the only team in the LEAGUE that
is using home boys and is not
using imported players.
The game this Sunday will be
played at Cottonwood, when
Winchester will cross bats with
our boys on the home diamond.

FREAkISH PLAY.

Freak plays in baseball are al
ways cropping up, but to date no
game has produced an equal to
the triple out registered in a
game between st. Marys college
of st. Marys, Kan, and the
Chilloco Indians. In this game
with the Indians in the field, a
st. Marys batter hit the ball to-
wards shortstop for an infield
fly, with the bases loaded. AS
such fly is an out, the batter
was declared out. The wind
carried the ball towards second
and as it descended, hit the ST.
Marys occupant on the sack on
the head, at which he was called
out for interfering with the ball,
The ball then rolled towards first
where the runner on that bag,
disguised at the luck of his team
mates, picked it up and threw it
out of the park. He was prompt
ly called out by the umpire. In
this manner a triple play was ac-
complished without any of the
players in the field touching the
ball after it left the pitchers
hand.

mount to s5,595.57. This means that
we are overdrawn on our account
with the bank by $455.37. We cannot
continue to go on unless we receive
help from some source. We still have
something over $7O0 due from the
appropriations made by Synod and
have some unpaid pledges which will
be paid. The people of Mccormick
have responded literally when the
fact is considered that most Of the
subscriptions obtained locally were
made necessary by members of other
denominations as there are very few
