Elevator PAYS Dividends.

Williams Enterprise: The Farmers
Elevator of this city has declared an
$ per cent dividend. This is something
unusual this year as a great many Of
the elevators have not only lost their
surplus, but a large per cent OF their
capital. This is the only elevator in
this part of the state that we know
of that has been able to pay a dividend
of this amount, and it is entirely due
to the able management of VIM. F0ran.

PLAY Ball without League.

Jewell Record: There has been some
wonderment us to whether or not an
effort would be made to continue the
Jewell Ellsworth baseball team, now
that the league of which the team was
a member has given mp the ghost. Fans
of course have been hoping that the
plan of maintaining the combined
team from the two towns would be
carried through regardless of the dis
ruptiOn of the league and that some
good ball games may be played here
and at Ellsworth during the summer.
The Jewell members OF the board OF
directors of the club called Il meeting
of ball fans to be held Tuesday night
of this week to discuss the matter Dllt
only Il handful attended. IL. NJ. Mn
ger. one Of the directors. informs the
Record that the local players ana the
local members of the board OF dlrec-
tors Of the club have decided to stay
by the original idea and that .ieWell
and Ellsworth will remain combined
as one team regardless OF the d!S-
rupt ion of the league. 1t is believed
that the club will he able to schedule
plenty of games with fast teams and
that the people of Jewell and Els
worth will be given Just as good base
ball and just as much baseball. per
hans even more, than would have been
the case had the league been organ
lied
Regarding the matter OF money
pledged by local fans for the support
of the team, the directors will proceed
ON the assumption that those VINO
made the pledges will he perfectly Will
ing 10 pay the money to the team play
ing independent ball as they would
were the team playing in the league
1t will be the same team ana VIII be
playing as many games as it would
have played in the league.
However. when the committee IN
charge of the matter calls to collect
the money pledged. if any OF the con
tributors do not wish to pay their
pledges on the grounds that the pro
nosed league did not materialize. they
will be released from their pledges.
