Rushville vs. Valentine The Rushville base ball team re- turned home Monday night , ha v- ing filled-a two-game engagement scheduled with the locals. The Sunday game resulted in a score of 4 to 2 in favor of Valentine and was witnessed by quite a number of fans of both sexes. It was an interesting game throughout and attended by a number of good plays that did not fail to elicit ap- preciative applause. Of course there were errors , too , and costly , i heinous ones , but they only added excitement for the spectators who were all.home rooters. Monday's game resulted in a defeat to the I visitors too lop-sided to make even interesting reading. The score keeper was kept dizzy ; marking up runs for the home boys. The game , . 1 was called for 2:30 : , but only a handful of enthusiasts ventured out to the ball park as the clouds hung low and threatening , and every fan in town still has a vivid i recollection ! of what happened to I him one day last summer when he went out there and defied the ele- ments. And say , it was more fun than a cage of cavorting monkeys affords to watch those rooters climb out of the grand stand at the first clap of thunder and hot-foot it across lots to a farm house and place of shelter , while some of the ball tossers struck out on a kangaroo jump for town. The storm cleared away about4 o'clock when the teams returned to the grounds to contest for supremacy. The locals feel that they have been revenged now for the bunch han- ded them on the Rushville grounds . . not _ long ago. . . . -t The 1910 State Fair , September 5 to 9 , offers an excellent line of at- tractions. Among them are four flights each day by Wright's aero- plane , concerts by Signer Lom bard's band of fouuty-four instru ments and grand opera company of twenty four singers fifteen bartfess speed contests and a number of running races-the derby , a 10-mile relay race , two miles each day. The great Patterson shows , night I speed contests , stupendous fireworks and vaudeville attractions. Taken with the great exhibits in every de , partment , this indeed \\ill make a great show. / The "Stockmen . Telephone com- pany" lost it's charter from fail- ' ure to pay the state occupation tax for 1909 and under the law was unable to continue in business. Therefore to protect and conserve the interests of the individual ' stock holders , it became necessary J to re-incorporate. This has been done under the name of the"Stock growers Telephone Co. " This I new company taking over all as- sets and assuming all liabilites of "Stockmens Telephone Co " and issuing stock pro rata in the new , company to-all stock holders in the old company. , J When the digestion is all right , the action of the bowels regular , there is a natural craving and relish for food.
