An Attempt At Matchmaking

We NIL know Meeker Is fast becoming
n city In every way but few OF us eN-
pccted that 1t had reached the stage OF
hlackmaillng Just stop to think OF II
Oid-timers, this place which you started
sonc forty odd years ago has reached
this point.
On Tuesday evening. Mr.. Ernest Old
land and wife went out for short
walk and on returning home found a
letter on the sitting room table. The
letter was addressed to Ernest Oldland
on the envelope but was written to Nj.
Reuben Oldland. Ernests father. The
note said that Mr.. Oldland was to I'M
mcdintely 20 to the First National Bank
and get not less than $1,000. He was
then to come along the lower side Of the
upper park and leave the money by the
gate in the middle OF that side and
then walk straight home without look
ing around. y.
Ernest thought he would try to catch
the party who wrote the note. He call
ed I'M the Commercial Club and got
Clarence Mnthcs and l.. T.. Chaplin to
come over to his house. He then called
up Mr.. Reuben Oldland and had him
go to the bank as directed. Mr.. Mathes
stayed with Mrs Ernest Oldland while,
l.. II. Chaplin and Ernest went and
watched In the lower park. Mr.. Reuben
Oldl!nnd followed directions of the note
and left package at the gate and went
home. Not long after two young fel-
lows went over and stopped at the gate,
hut ms no money was left there they
left. Roy MUIR and another young fel-
low are being held In jail as the guilty
parties. There is no direct evidence as
vet so 1t Is not decided what will Ike
done.

Baseball Notes

The Mcekcr Cubs went to Crnig sun
,lny the 18th. where II doublc-hcadcr
was scIic,lmlcd-Mt. Harris VS. Dixon,
Vyo.. and Mcckcr VS. Craig.
The Mccker-Crnig gam was schdu-
led first, at p. III. but due to some
misunderstanding the Mt Harris and
Dixon people understood their game
VAS first NJ > p. N. After considerable
tlclay their game wns starred at 3 p. III.
md finished nj 30 p. IN. mt which time
it was too late To start the Meekcr-
craig game.
Although the Cubs were disappointed
in not being mblc to plny they enjoyed
watching the game between Mt. Harris
aud Dixon which are two Of the fastest
teams in the Northwest section. Mt.
Harris won s to 3.
Mcckcr seems to be the only town
which has n team composed of strictly
home talent and not player who re-
ccives pay for services.
Dixon. Craig. and GlcnwoOd all have
teams with two or more salnricd men.
Mt. Harris claims local talent, hut
used Steamboats, salaricd pitcher
AGAINST Dixson Sunday.
Each of the towns mentioned have
enclosed grounds and charge 30 cents
admission.
II looks as though the Mcckcr fans
were getting mighty good brand of
amateur baseball at little cost as the
collections usually total from 10 TO 10
dollars.
The Cubs have won and lost
games. Craig has been paying SloO n
month for n battery and has won one
game.
There is just Il little work connected
with holding Il team together with
keeping mp interest in practice and ar
ranging games. Thursday Of last week
when Craig called up Manager Jack
Rca TO arrange for Sundays gnmc tho
home players were somewhat scattered.
Wright Ball being at iampa, visiting
his sister: MaIoncy ut Langlas' ranch:
Sizcmore and Graham Laying on the
K-T: Scxson on his ranch up Sulphur
and Crawford and Finch at Crawfords
ranch. Manager Rea spent consider
able time in reaching them all. To say
that they were disappointed in not get
ting game at Craig is putting it mild
ly.
Notwithstanding lack of time to get
together and practice. they have mndc
II very good showing so far. and are
entitled to better support and apprc-
cntion thun they have received at tie
hands of our people.
Get behind the Mcckcr baseball team.
