AT THE C IU1 n j 3 U J n 1 DAYLIGHT STORE PLATTSMOUTH BALL BOYS UNLUCKY AT THE TOURNAMENT The Glenwood base ball tournament seems to have been a rather decidedly unlucky one for the team representing: this city, as they were overwhelmed yesterday by the Glenwood team by a score of 8 to 1. The game was a good one up to the fifth inning1, as the score was a tie, 1 to 1, but after that the Iowans secured a great many runs that spelled defeat for the locals. Mason was the mound artist for the local team, and while effective in the opening innings, was touched up quite lively in the last stages of the game, which with several errors and the work of the umpire combined to make the road a rough one for our sterling athletes. The Red Oak-Tabor game yesterday forenoon was forced to a draw, as the rain at noon stopped the playing, and these two fast organizations will le compelled to lock horns again. Red Oak will play the Plattsmouth team today, while Tabor will take on Glen wood, and some excitement is looked for when the two Iowa cities tangle, as the followers of the tournament have Red Oak and Tabor picked for the final winners. This morning, in the game between Red Oak and Plattsmouth, the Red Oak team captured the honors by a score of 5 to 3. Vern Long done the pitching for the Plattsmouth team. This closes the tournament as far m Plattsmouth is concerned. SPECIAL TRAIN NOT VERY WELL PATRONIZED TODAY The special trains that have been operating over the Burlington from this city to the state fair grounds in Lincoln during the last two days, have not ben patronized as liberally from this city and vicinity as in the past few years, and this morning was the only really good day that was enjey ed by the railroad, as a goodly num ber were ticketed over it today bound fairward. The train, however, secures quite a number along the way out to the fair, as it makes all the towns on the Ashland-Plattsmouth branch line. The great number of automobiles owned in the county have caused a great many to make the trip to the fair in this manner, while the rainy weather has served to keep others from going. SPECIAL NOTICE.

"DOC" HOTTER THAN HAYDES BECAUSE THE BOARDS WERE MOVED Yesterday afternoon Howard M Young, the veteran bill poster, had a most trying experience while out look ing after the advertising of the Ring- ling Brothers circus. "Doc" started out to post up the billboard that for merly stood near the George Kroehler property on West Locust street, and carried his full equipment of paper, brushes and paste to the scene of ac tion, expecting to put up the glitter ing advertising of the show, and after the walk of twenty blocks, more or less, found on his arrival that the bill board was not there, as someone had moved it without his knowledge, and only a vacant space marked where once the billboard had reared in ma jestic glory. What was said when the discovery of the moving of the board was made will forever remain a deep mystery, but "Doc" was still mighty sore when he arrived back in town with his equipment and the air in the neighborhood of where the billboard formerly stood was of a decidedly blue tint. "Doc" says he does not mind the walk, but would like to discover who moved the board without hi.s knowledge. ANOTHER EXCURSION TO CHASE COUNTY FOR LANDSEEKERS On Sunday evening, September 12th, Messrs. Rosencrans & Bonner will depart with another excursion for Chase county, Nebraska, which will be composed of a large number from this county and the surrounding towns. The party will leave here at 7:45 over the Missouri Pacific for Omaha, where they will transfer to their private car for the trip to Imperial, the county seat of Chase county. Here the sight seers will be taken over the county in automobiles and be shown the hind and farms of that county. The time for the trip will be three days and will be at an expense of only $16, which includes car fare, sleeper privileges and hotel bills and meals and will be well worth taking up by those who can spare the time and the money necessary, and will give them a splendid outing and an opportunity of seeing the land in that section of the state. Those who were with the first excursion party were delighted with their trip and the chance is one that -cannot be well passed up if you have the time and the money to. take it up.
