Mrs. G. J. Brook accompanied by her
daughter, Jessie, left Friday for Spenc
er, la., where she will spend about a
month visiting with her parents, Mr.

Miss Florence McDonald returned to
Fremont Wednesday morning where
she will stay about three weeks to com
plete the course of study she is taking
at the normal. Mis Nellie Flood, who
has been visiting her returned to Chi
cago on the same day.
The ball game last Saturday between
O’Neill and Atkinson could not help
being exciting, for there was no telling
Just when one nine might run in fifty or
sixty seores and so cinch the game.
Although a lead of fifty or slxtv would
not have made the game sure, still it
was felt that if one nine could have got
that much ahead in the last half of the
game they would yery likely, barring
. accident, win out. But this was not to
be, for the game continued close, Atkin
son never getting more than twelve
seores ahead, and so the excitement was j
always at the highest pitch. In the
. sixth and ninth innings the O’Neill
boys made a bluff or two at trying to
win but when the Atkinson boys thought
that they had allowed them to amuse
the ladies in the grand stand long
enough they Just put them out and
laughed at them. And talk about kick
ingl There were only two mules on the
ground, but when the O’Neillitee started
to kick those mules had to be taken
away as their owner said they would
surely die of envy, for they had always
prided themselves on being the cham
pion kiekers of North Nebraska.
Whenever an O'Neill player got within
six feet of, a base and was called out
they considered they had a chance for a
kick, and so they kicked, for you can
bet they never let a chance go by.
Twice they said that they wouldn’t play
any more and started for home with
their ball and bat, but the crowd felt
sorry for them both times and presented
the umpire and the captain of the
Atkinson nine with a petition asking
that they let the kickers have their own
way, as It would make no difference
with the outcome of the game and the
crowd didn’t want them to go home for
it was too much fun watching them try
? to play ball. So the umpire, at the
request of the Atkinson nine, granted
the petition. After that whenever an
O’Neillite thought he should not be put
out he kicked, and the umpire would
say, "all right, hold your base, I must
have been mistaken.” We understand
that O'Neill claims she can get up a
better nine than the one they sent. If
they couldn’t we would feel sorry for
them, and we hope they will send it up
before long so that we can see it. Here
is the score by innings of last Saturday's
game:
O’Neill— 1-0-8-0-2-6-1-0-5—18.
Atkinson—3-2-0-6-2-S-8-4-*—25.
