We regret to record that in the great struggle last Friday on the dia mond between the Fats and Leans, the beefy individuals actually sat down so hard on their skeletonized opponents that the tired feeling has not so far been relieved, and it may take still another tussle and conse quent defeat of the corpulent con tingent before the matter may be amicably disposed of. The Slivers justly contend that it is one of the impossibilities for a lightweight to overcome a heavyweight when the umpire goes wrong, and they’ll be everlastingly dodgasted if they can’t just hop all over and around their big enemy in another battle, when they propose at the time to have a string on the “empire.” P. S.—The game was seven innings: Fats 11, Leans 9. The many friends of Dr. B. W.

While con gratulating Dr. Boyd over his tine appointment, we, in common with the host of friends made by the doc tor and his fair wife, will regret that they are not to make their permanent home here, where Dr. Boyd has built up for himself a very lucrative prac tice. Of course, the Northwestern will make regular visits to their new home, that they may not lose track of their Sherman county friends.

Last fall he returned from a five years’ sojourn in foreign lands and next month goes back to China to explore the country along the Great Wall and the great Gobi desert south of Siberia.
