This matter is of interest to all and

Toddy on last Monday. The plaintiff

Crawford and O. Outline represented
the village. The plaintiff being a non
resident wan required to give security
for costs and tlie court allowed thirty
day in which such bond should Iw

Alsmt twenty persons went to I.Usk
from Imt last Friday to witness the
game of base hall which had ls;eii ar
ranged for. Tlie day was pleasant and
all looked forward to a good time. The
game w as simply a social one so '.here
could 1 no occasion for unpleasantness.
As soon as the party arrived the Lusk
;ople ls'gan to roar a iout the pitcher
the Harrison team had with them. A
good ileal of roaring was kept up until
the players gathered on the grounds and
then the manager flatly refused to play
if Williams pitched. The manager of
the Harrsion team plainly informed the
others that if a game was iilaved Wil
liams would pit.h. After a lot of fuss
the game was commenced with Wil
liams as pitcher. When two and a half
innings had lieen played and the Lusk
boys just going to bat it was learned
that they intended to jump the game as
soon as the inning was finished anil as a
result it stopped there. Mr. Collins re
fusing to play any longer and left the
gronnds, and he being the captain of the
Lusk club the fun Ktopped.
The people who spent their time and
money to go to see the game as well as
those who weni to play felt that they
were treated decidedly shabby by the
Lusk crowd. The challenge came from
i,iisk some lime -ago and w as lor a game
for either fun or money. Our boys did
not think a nine could lie got together
and so informed the writer. Later it
was decided that a nine could be raised
and Lusk was noli lied that they could
have a game for fun. It was found that
there was no pitcher among the players
here and it also came to the ears of the
iople here that Lusk had a college bat
tery and shortstop who wera to help
them out nnd that they would also have
some of Manvilles best players. Not
caring to be caught napping they got
George Williams of Chadron to pitch
for them. Jt was learned that the col
lege party had left tho vicinity of Lusk
about a week liefore the date the game
was to have come off so that tho actions
of the leaders of the Lusk players indi
cated that they had decided to back out
of the game.
It was the first visit of the writer to
Lusk and he had always been given to
understand that the people of that place
were sports. Tlie exhibition of last Fri
day brought him to the conclusion that
Lusk was pure gumbo, not a bit of sand
being discernable in its composition.
It was thought by some that the
course taken by the Lusk players was to
even up an old score against the Harri
son ople of year's standing but if that
is true they purpetrnted their display l
malice on but two who participated 111
any of the former games. It is iiuiti
likely that no attempt ill he made ti
get up a game lietween the two towns
for some time in order to allow the cap
tain of the Lusk team to get big enougl
so us not to Ik? a baby afraid of beine
laughed at.
In all other respects tlm treatment 11c-
corded the visitors was all that could
have Is-eri asked, hut tho proceedings in
regard to the game certainly whs very
shabby,
