The Avoca Sluggers had their first practice game with the Rassraussen Sluggers on May 1st.

George Braezele.in left field was a star, Mohr, Steele, Jung and Britin played without an error. When the smoke had cleared away the score stood 28 to 1 in favor of the Avoca team. Hon. John Knox did the umpiring and gave perfect sat isfaction. Manager Rassmussen is not satisfied with the result and will try and gives the Green's a better game in the near future.

There seems every probability that the disgraceiui Drawl which took place last Saturday night at the meeting of the city council will end in the courts after all. Despite the advice of counsel for all the parties concerned, some of them are still wanting legal action taken in the matter and are urging that com plaints be led against those w ho were carried away by heat of pas sion and who did things which they have since sincerely regretted. John M. Leyda is particularly anx ious to have action taken by County Attorney Ramsey in the premises, and verbally requested him to file complaints against former mayor, H. R. Gerlng, and his brother Matthew Gering, charging them with assault and battery. Mr. Ramsey asked him to think the matter over as he would be compelled to file complaints against all parties participating in the trouble if he filed them against any one of them. This Mr. Leyda seems to have done and to have de termined to proceed w ith the matter as lie has filed a written request with the county attorney to proceed and file the complaints against the Ger ings, as he had requested. In addition to this, T. M. Carter alleges that some one took a crack at him during the melee and landed heavily upon him where the chicken got the ax in the neck. He thinks that the county attorney should do his duty in the premises and have the law upon said parties who crack ed Thomas. He visited the office of the county attorney yesterday with his complaint, but Mr. Ramsey was looking after business in Lincoln and did not get to listen to Carter's tale So far today he had not shown up dui u is understood ne will do so and Insist upon an airing of the matter In the courts. He visited Judge Archer and asked that offi cial to take a hand in the proceed ings but this he declined to do and referred Carter to the county attor ney. County Attorney Ramsey stated to the Journal man that if Mr. Leyda and Carter insisted on his filing the complaints he would do so but he would not discriminate and lie ex pected to file complaints against all parties to the trouble. There is section of the statute under which any person using language calculated to provoke an assault upon himself is guilty of an offense and would be punishable by a fine. It Is believed the Gerlngs would Invoke this sec tion of the statute should Leyda In sist on the complaints being filed, and have Leyda prosecuted under It. In the Carter case there Is evidence that Carter raised his cane with the intention of striking Henry R. Ger ing and this in law constitutes an assault. That Carter would be pro secuted for this Is conceded, should the matter get Into court as It Beems fair to do. County Attorney Ramsey appar ently Is In the position where he must file the complaints regardless of the actual merits of the rase, otherwise ground might be laid for the filing of a complaint against him for failing to perform the duties of his office. He does not care to be placed in this position as he Is wil ling at all times to do his duty but he does not feel that the personal matters of the parties should be dragged through the courts at the expenses of the Cass county tax payers. The situation is an unpleasant one for all concerned and It Is hoped the matter will be allowed to drop. Several of the parties who were drag ged Into the melee Saturday night throught of filing complaints but they were disuaded from this. Should the complaints spoken of above be filed, there is every probability these parties will likewise come in and insist on their cases being taken up and this would have to be done. Among those who decided to with draw any complaint was Councilman Ilookmeyer who was assaulted while acting as a peacemaker and through no fault of his own. T. J. Sokol Dunce.

County Attorney Ramsey returned this morning from Lincoln where ho has been looking aftor business mat ters. lie's a Lu I. u. Charles primes, city editor of the Plattsmouth Journal, Is perhaps one of the most fluent writers engaged In the newspaper work in the state. He started to practice law, but found it did not produce the dollars it hould and he turned his attention o newspaper work and the way that he grinds out news, even when dull times comes, would make a lawyer wanting to write a brief for a big ase look sick and have a longing de ire to have Charles' gift. His ac counts of the council meetings are certainly rich reading and he handles base ball game even better than Charles Graves, of the Union Led ger used to handle the sphere or the bat. Grimes Is certainly a peach and Colonel Bates would find it hard to keep shop without him and get out the same newsy paper he does. Ne braska City News. Thanks, Colonel Mamell.
