From Friday Da.Hr. Wednesday, September 1st, marked the fifth wedding- anniversary of Mr. and Mrs. R. B. Hayes, and in order to commemorate the happy event in the proper manner Mr. and Mrs. Hayes entertained their immediate neigh bors, some thirty-five, very informal ly at an evening party. Being for tunate enough to be in the vicinity of the city park,, and the evening the band concert was to be held in the park, the early part of the evening was spent out on the porch listening to the pleasing selections provided by the band. After the band concert the guests repaired to the pretty parlors of the Hayes home, where various diversions, which had been planned by the host and hostess for the enter tainment of their guests, were indulg ed in. The principal amusement was that of telling stories, which afforded much pleasure, laughter and merriment for the company. The husbands of the company gave a description of their wife's wedding dress, while the wives approved and disapproved, and thea the wives described the wedding jour ney. The young ladies of the com pany who are yet unmarried told what they expected to have for their wed ding dress and the wedding journey they expected to take. One of the older ladies, who was married in 18il, told of her wedding dress, the hoop skirt being the up-to-date style then, and of wedding trips made via the ox and cart route, and that the groom always had a home already prepared and furnished for his bride in those days. The guests then wrote a story entitled "The Newly Weds," describ ing the wedding, the wedding journey and their return to their new home and housekeeping. These stories were interspersed with some delightful Victrola selections, vocal solos by Mr. Fred Jones of Raskin, Neb., and in strumental solos by Miss Estelle P.aird. Light refreshments were served, at which time the story which had been written by the guests early in the evening, was read, which, like the stories which had been related provoked much merriment. The guests then repaired to the parlors again, where they devoted pme time in singing some of the old song?, which was greatly enjoyed by the older people of the company, as well as the younger ones. Along about the midnight hour and after wishine the host and hostess many more such happy wedding anniver saries and that they would be invited to participate in each one, the guests departed for their homes. As a memento of the occasion and of the high esteem in which Mr. and Mrs. Hayes are held by their neighbors, the neighbors presented the Hayes with a handsome porch chair. This story will be kept by Mrs. Hayes as a souvenier of this delight ful evening's affair. SAM WINDHAM DEPARTS FOR NEW YORK LAST EVENING INJURED IN RUNAWAY EARLY THIS AFTERNOON From Saturday's Dai:r.

Fanger's Department Store PLATTSMOUTH, NEBRASKA The star-eyed goddess of victory Sunday smiled on the crimson hosed legions of Manager Johnson and gave the the credit of another win against the aggregation representing: Glen wood, which for the occasion had been especially prepared with a view of takining down te locals, but they were unable to produce the goods, as the fast and furious playing of the Sox had them going all the time and the all-star aggregation fielded their heads off back of Hull, the mound arti9t of the locals, and although the Glenwood batters were able to swat the pill at ease, they were unable to get anywhere with their taps and but for a bobble of judgment would have been blanked, as the Sox had them in the hole at all stages of the game and had their number for another defeat, and when the finale came to the con test Plattsmouth was the winner by a score of 4 to 1. In the fielding for the locals Parker was the bright particular star, as he grabbed all chances coming anywhere near his station at shortstop and was in a class all to himself in heading off the hits of the Iowa team. Parriott, Beal and Cline werea lso some filders themselves during the game, however, and took several very difficult and pretty catches that evoked the great est of enthusiasm from the large crowd of several hundred that packed the grandstand and bleachers, includ ing a large and enthusiastic crowd of the Glenwood boys, who certainly are loyal and earnest in their support of their team. In the opening spasm of the game the hopes of the visitors were at fever hpnt and visions of a irreat victory caused the large crowd of Glenwood rooters to demonstrate how they felt in the matter and place a few sheck les on the result. Hilt, the little left fielder, who has been one of the famiilar figures here in the last few games, opening up the affray and re tired on a fly to Graham at the first station, while Schultz was unable to solve the delivery of Hull and fanned out; Hall, the elongated Taborite, who played third for the visitors, was given a lease of lifeo n a wild throw to first, but did no damage, as Butler the backstop of the visitors, also took thes trikeout method of ending their chances. In Plattsmouths' half of th inning there was not even a look-in as both Beal and Parriott were stung on the slants of Speed and whiffed while Graham lifted one to left field that Hilt grabbed, which left the score a blang on either side. In he seeond act of the little drama Todd opened the engagement by lift ing one to Parker at short, which was swallowed un. while Stimpson was able to beat one out to first, but wa , caught up a few minutes later when ; Linville hit safely to second base, but Lewis got one of his little grounders ' to Parker at short and was put ou by Graham at first. In the third inning the game was a a cumav when the visitors came so close to scoring as to cause the root era for the home team a spell of heart failure, but luckily they were retired without a run. Speed, the pitcher for the visitors, eot on through a safe drive to left field ami advanced when Hilt drove a grounder to Ciiue at sec ond and was tagged at first: Schultz who followed at bat: drew a walk, but on an attempt of Speed to score he was tagged, and Hall ended the per formance by whiffing at th ball. Thj Sox. spurred on by the efforts of the visitors to cinch the game, got busy in their half of this inning and out away two nice little score.-, to their credit, which caused a sign, of relief to go up from the loyal fans. Parker opened the inning by securing a walk off Speer of the Council Bluffa 1m perials, who was attempting to pitch the game, and was followed oy Smith, who found too many hole in the air and struck ont; Hull was mora for tunate, however, and was also walUryl by -Speed, which looked mignt good for a tally for the Sox, and when Beal hit to Speed,; Parker was eoruel!ed to run Into a forced out at the thild sack. Just here was vher; one Glen Parriott proceeded to io things to the smoothly working machinery of. the WE CLOSE AT NOON MONDAY "Change-about First Bat!"

In the fourth inning Butler drove a grounder to Parriott, which was grab bed the runner thrown out at first; Todd lifted a little pop-up that Hull handled, and Stimpson was out on a fly to Beal in the center garden. Her old opened the engagement for Platts mouth and was retired on a grounder to shortstop; Cline hit to Speed and was out at first; Mason was passed by Speed and Parker closed by a high fly to right field, which was gathered in by Linville. In the fifth spasm Linville, the first man up, struck out, while Lewis lifted a pop-up to Cline at second; Speed was more fortunate than his team mates and secured a safety over third into short left; Parker grabbed the fly of Hilt by running back into left field and closed the scene for the visitors. The Sox retired in one, two three order, Smith going out on an infield fly to short, Hull fouled out to Butler, while Beal struck out. The sixth saw the Sox again take two scores and put the gameo n ice, after the visitors had been blanked again, as not one of them in this in ning were able to get on a base. Par riott opened the show with a hit over short, but was killed at second when Graham hit a little grounder to Speed; Herold was hit by the pitcher, with the result that Graham was ad vanced, and later scored when Butler failed to stop one of Speed's slants; Herold was advanced to second on the sacrifice of Cline, and when Wilhelm Mason pocked the pill for two bags Pete tallied with a run. Parker was out on a fly to shortstop, ending the agony of the visitors. The seventh saw the visitors secure their lonely tally. Todd, the first man up, was able to secure a safety through short; Stimpson struck out, but Linville hit to Parriott at third and was retired at the first station, but through an oversight Todd was safe at second and scored when Lewis hit to short center. This was all, how ever, as Schultz ended the inning by striking out. After the seventh there was nothing doing in the way of scoring, as the superb fielding of the Sox was such as to shut out all hopes of the visitors getting anywhere with their jabs at the ball. At the close of the battle the sterling members of the Hose were awarded the victory by the score of 4 to 1, which was certainly a de light to the excited base ball bugs who had been rooting sos trongly for the home team. The Glenwood boys have put up a strong showing each time they have been here and when their tournament opens tomorrow the Plattsmouth fans should return the compliment by go ing over and see what the Platts mouth team can do to the Iowa boys on their own lot.
