AVOCA BALL 1EI
TO
Game Promises to Be Hot One
as They Are Some Team
The fast local base ball team will
play the Avoca, Neb., team on the
Chicago avenue grounds next Sun
day and there is every prospect of a
red hot game. The Avoca team will
come especially prepared to make
the Plattsmouth team play its best
ball to win and doubtlesss will do
so." The locals are in fine shape and
are playing the same fast and speedy
game they played with the Sixteenth
Infantry team which was some game.
Avoca has been playing a rattling
good game for some days past and
has cleaned up all the stronger teams
of that locality. They intend to try
and make Plattsmouth win the coun
ty championship by good hard work
and to keep the locals rushing from
the jump.
Plattsmouth is proud of the fine
work of its team for the past month
and glad to see the interest the boys
take Iff 'the game. ' The" attendance
should be in keeping with the games
right to top notch for they de
serve support. The work of Herrold,
Eardwell, Fitzgerald, Larson and
Mann in the past several games has
been far above . the average while
Mason and Kelly have also been rank
ing high. Droege is almost always a
reliable player and McCauley and
Beal have been doing steady and
consistent work. . Then the locals
have a good reserve player in Ault
who did excellent work in the games
.he took part in. Altogether, the
tpam is one which deserves the sup
port of the home folks and it is
hoped there will be such a crowd on
Sunday as will fill the stand and
the grounds to overflowing.
There is a possibility of a good
game for Saturday afternoon but
this has not been secured yet. Some
strong Omaha team will be secured
if possible and will give the hoys
. something to keep them busy. The
Auburn team of the Mink league is
being dickered with for a game and
the locals hope to secure one for the
next couple 4of .weeks. The locals
feel they can' trim the Auburns easily
,and they want to do so.
V A telephone message was received
fthis morning from Malvern la., by
"Manager Brantner asking ' that the
local team enter In a base ball tour-
nament to be given in Malvern on
August 2, 3 arid '-4. There are1 large
'.purses hung up . and the local team
accepted ' the- 'proposition forthwith
(and will betifl jhand and ready for
; the' games. "They are confident of
.i coming away with some good money
J. and much Credit, out. of the contests
and will go prepared to show west
ern Iowa that there is some ball team
in Plattsmouth.
The Malvern management also
wired an offer of a $.')0 purse for
a game in that city between the
Shenandoah team ''anil the Platts
mouth team, the' game ,o" be pulled
off on 'July '14th. . This offer was
accepted on the part of Plattsmouth,
and the local team will .furnish its
share, of a fast and exciting gam'e.
Melverh has some automobile races
scheduled for that day and the ball
game is an'added attraction. The
races are said to be among the best
ever 6een in this section and it is
believed the attendance will be far
better than at any seen in years.
Malvern Is a live town from the sport
standpoint and promises to furnish
a big day on Thursday, July 14th.
The Plattsmouth' team is gratified
that their good work is attracting
the attention of outside teams and
that their services are in demand
and they will try and furnish a grade
of work which will pay those calling
upon them.

Plattsmouth women know how the
aches and pains that come when the
kidneys fall make life a burden.
Backache, hip pains, headaches, diz

bles, all tell of sick kidneys and
warn you of the stealthy approach
of diabetes, dropsy and Brlght.'s dis

nently cure all these disorders. Here's
proof of it in a Plattsmouth woman's
words:
Mrs. James Hodgert, 1102 Main
street, Plattsmouth, Neb., says: "1
suffered a great deal at times from
dull, heavy pains across the small of
my back, especially severe when I
stooped or brougnt any strain on the
muscles of ray loins. About two years
ago I learned of Doan's Kidney Pills
and they brought me such prompt
and positive relief that I have Blnce
used them whenever I have felt in
need of a kidney remedy. I pro
cured Doan's Kidney Pills at Gerlng
& Co.'s'dr'ug store 'and do not hesi
tate to recommend 'them,.""'"
