One of the best games of the season
came off Thursday afternoon at the
Woodliwn Gun and Ball park between
the Sherman Excelsiors and the Gate
Citys, of Denison, resulting in a victory-
tor the home club by a score ot 3 to 2.
The Excelsiors had expected to play a
Little Rock battery, but failed in getting
them. They, however, were fortunate in
securing a battery trom Fort Smith,
which did excellent work. Sherman had
largely the strongest club she has ever
put in the field, but as usual she had to
yield the palm to the champions.
Tom. Dollarhide left Saturday morning
for Galveston, accompanied by hit Texas

lent form, and a number of our baae ball
tanciers went with them to see them do
it. They play two games, one to-day
with the Island Citys and one Monday

Alima Nan iiht Aiyasha.” This book
was sent to Murray’s Power Printing
House for publication, and not being pro-
tected by a copyright our enterprising

of obscure genius and publish them as his
own, has taken in hand the translation ot

The Gate City Drug Store put an ad-

Wednesday that held a delighted audience
during the entire afternoon. It was
box bearing the compliments ot the
“Rat-Catcher” cigar and containing an
automatic contrivance representing an
old man trying to kill a rat with a club.
The antics of the rat and the varying ex-
pressions upon the features of the old
man as he takes aim at it are amusing in
the highest degree, but when he strikes it
breaks the crowd all up to see his mouth
fly open and to witness the look of de-
lighted hilarity which overspreads his
features when he apparently thinks he
has pulverized his victim.

has been built, a heavy boiler and power-

too sii^i. A little over a week ago his de
tectivet thought that a Missouri Pacific
passenger train was to beheld up. Armed
men were placed upon the trains at con-
siderable expense ot course, but no at-
tempt at robbery was made. About tour
years ago the same thing was done.

Captain Curley Stigers, of the Pacific

write to him once more. She stated as
an excuse tor not writing to him this
summer, that his love tor her was evi-
dently so warm, and the temperature of
her native city was so hot that she could
only think of icebergs and ice cream with
any pleasure. The first named were too
tar away to be of any practical value; but
she had met a young man who showed a
willingness to supply her with the latter.
Without attempting to dictate to the
doughty captain we would suggest that
were he to send her a dainty box Of iced
melons it might prevent a recurrence of
the meloncholy relations that have ex-
isted between them during the dog days
now drawing to a close.
