Log Would Not Hold Still
Impreceptibly we advance In years,
nor do we know of the lapse of time
until some untoward event brings us
face to face with the stubborn fact
th'- fleeting of th? years and the logi
cal results. Frank Bauer, with a
number of boys, were out near the
river fishing in a small tributary
when Frank assayed to cross the
rivulet on a foot log. which seemed
a v?ry simple, though it was very
difficult. Like many stubborn things,
the log refused to hold still while our
genial citizen navigated it and when
he would place his foot on the wab
bly foot path it would, out of sheer
devilshness evade his foot, and conse
quently he plunged into the mud and
water to his discomfort and the soil
ing of his clothes as he was covered
with a good coat of thick rich black
mud. Still he laughed good natured
ly as he crawled out and said it could
have been worse.
Will Have a Double Header
Arrangements have been perfected
for a came between I'nion and the
Nebraska Citv team, for the Fourth
of Julv. at which time they will play-
two games and those who love base
ball mav have the worth of their
money.
