The result of the game was nine to five, in which 'Cobb's team neither pitched Speaker init heavily, Cobb hitting only once.

 Leonard told Landis: Cobb, Speak CT, Wood and I happened to meet un- der the stand to talk about baseball and we (Detroit) wanted to finish third. Speaker said: Don't worry about tomorrow's game; we (Cleve- land) have second place cinched and you win tomorrow Everybody agreed that if it was going to be setup, we might as we'll get some money out of it. I was to put up $1,50O, as I remember; Cobb, s2,OOO, Wood and Speaker $1,000 each. I was thru for the season and gave check to Fred West and left for Independence, Mo. I received Woods letter with $1,630. West wrote that he was only able to put up part of the money
 The letter Cobb wrote Leonard said: Wood and myself are considerably disappointed in our business propo- sition as we had s2,OOO to put into it; the other side $1,400. When we final ly secured that it was about, 2 o'clock, and they refused to deal with us as men had been sent to Chicago to take the matter up.'

RURAL DISTRICT WILL
ERECT STONE SCHOOL

Supply, Aug 3.-Today and last
Tuesday were the greatest days, e1u
cationally, that this section has ever
seen. The people of Rural Special
School District No. 2, composed OF
what were formerly Pitman, Moore
and Dilbeck Districts, met at the Pete
Cockrum place, 10 acres Of which has
been bought for the new school
grounds, and put in the time hauling
rock and sand for the construction OF
a modern four room cobblestOne school
building with a 2Ox50 foot basement
underneath.
c. NJ. Hirst. an expert on school
grounds and school buildings came here
from the Department of Education
some days back and assisted the Board
of Directors to locate very desirable
plot on which to build and also left
with them blue prints of school
building that he thought would be ex-
cellent for our demands and we must
say that he is an adept at estimating
just what people Of a certain section
needs and wants, for every person
that has looked at the blue prints Ot
the proposed building has said "Just
the very thing, think, we need" and
by way of emphasizing the fact that
they were in earnest about what they
say, they certainly have proven it by
the way the men folks put the rock and
sand on the ground and used the Oicl
and shovel in digging and removing the
dirt for the foundation and the womer
certainly did their part by spreading
at noon each day, one Of the greatest
If not the greatest, dinners Of which
it was ever the privilege of this writer
to partake.
After the meal was eaten on Tues
day, July 81, we were favored with
25 minute talk by Bro. Taylor Stanfil
of Arkadelphia, and the most c0mpli

would fall far short of expressing just
what we thought of his address, ther
