Indians Xera Tomorrow.
The Clicyenuc Indians, who
defeated the Union Pacifies in their
home town. last Saturday and Sun
day, will arrive, here tomorrow
morning and play the local team in
the afternoon at Athletic park.
While the Indians were victorious
on their home grounds, it it no
sure thing that they will win in
tomorrow's game, lor it is gener
ally conceded that they do not play
as stiff ball away from home as
they do on their own grounds, and
this is equally true ot the local
team.
Having seen both teams play wa
are confident the game tomorrow
will prove one of the best of the
seaspn, and there should be a big
turn out.
Loe BotliGsuno.
The Union Paciiic ballte'am went
to Cheyenne Friday night and
played two games with the team of
that city and met defeat. In the
first game the score Btood ten to
nothing, aud in the second twelve
to eight. In the first game young
Glaze pitched and kept the Union
Pacifies down to five scattered bits,
while the Cheyennea touched Red
mond for seventeen hits. Six of the
ten runs made in the first game
were earned.
In the second game Pendcrgaft
of Ogden was in the box for the
Union Pacifies and "kept the' hits
down to nine, while the Union
Pacifies touched up Simmons for
ten hita. The second game was
lost in the eighth inning when the
Union Pacifies, went to pieces, and
the Cheyennes got seven men
around the bases. Up to that inn
ing the score stood eight to five.

territory tributary to Gothenburg,
have made a great change in the
prospects of the corn crops, and It
now looks as if Dawson county, on
a very conservative estimate, will
produce a yield ot J.i bushels per
acre. Many pieces will make from
20 to 30 bushels, while others will
make scarcely anything except

corn promises an average crop.

NOTICI2
It has been reported by some of
our members that they have been
approached by men and women
soliciting five, ten and fifteen cents
in the name of . the International
Sunshine Society, pointing to the
reports in the daily papers, and the
page in the Ladies Home Journal,
as telling of their work. The Inter
national Sunshine Society has no
magazine of itB own and is asking
nobody to ndvertisc in or subscribe
for any publication called Sun
shine". The Ladies Home Journal
and the daily papers report the
news of the International Sunshine
Society's meetings, and arc the
only publications with which the
International is connected. Will
members please bear in mind that
such solicitations as mentioned
above are scandals,
The Charlotte Michigan Branch
of the International Sunshine
Society is furnishing a sunshine
bid for the Children's Home of Ben
ton Harbor. The Brooklyn circles
have endowed a Bunshine room in a
Long Island Hospital; Mnssachu
csetts is organizing a home for
the aged sunshine men aud, women.
Alabama lias a circulating library
and in many other states the work
is being pushed with equal energy,
SUNSHINE MUSIC,
Have you a copy of the New
York state sunshine song? Every
member and every branch should
know the words and m.usic of "The
Value of a Smile". "The thing
that goes the tarthest t'ward mak
ing life worth while, that cost the
least and does the most good, is
juBt a pleasant smile, etc",
CHORUS
"Its worth a million dollars and
doesn't cost a cent."
It ib the latest composition of
Mrs, Joseph Kairclnld Knapp, the
honorary sunshine president ot
New York. The son"; is beautiful
and you cannot but feel sunshiny
after once singing it. Mrs, Knapp,
who is now very ill, sent 15,000
copies of the music to headquarters
Fifth Ave., New York City, for
dlsposicion, the proceeds to be
used in carrying on the Sunshine
work. It costs but ten cents a
sheet and you ought to have
copy.

Nebraska is to have a traveling
library. We believe tills will be a ,
true sunshiny act. giving many an
opportunity of reading the later
books that have not that privilege
now. The only expense attached
to this library will be In Bhipplng
books from one branch to another.
Please remember that those books
that have helped to make a summer
day pleasant for you will be hugely
enjoyed by some isolated member
