The Schuyler high school ball team
played the Columbus high school club
a pretty game of ball on the home
gonnds last Saturday afternoon.
Qcite a sprinkling of fans saw the
game and they got their money's
worth too. For the first four innings
neither side 6aw even a glimpse of
home plate, bat in the fifth Schuyler
broke into the game proper, and to
gether with a few safe hits and a
hunch of errors by Columbus made
six large juicy scores. This lead look
ed lad for the locals but they kept on
playing a. good steady game and when
the end of the ninth had been reached
had the game won by a score of C to7.
Jra Bstterton did some real profes
sional playing for Columbus, while
the Schuyler right heliler was the
star in that team. A return game will
be played at Schuyler May 6th.

Ed Early returned Tuesday night
from Herrick, S. D., where he hts
been for threo weeks helping start a
bank. J. K. Russell clFnllei to l owns
the back and has named it the Rose
bud Bank.
Mr. Early during his absence has
seen people and had experiences which
will bo of interest to CoIumbu9 people.
Wm. Kearbille, who was at one
time a druggist in this city is going
to start a bank at Burke, a town
twelve miles west of Herrick. He
wnnted Mr. Early to help him open
np, but Mr. Early happens to be
drawn on the federal jury at Omaha
and conld not accept the offer.
Wm. McUormick, who drew homo
stead number 1, on which the town
of Herrick is built has been mado
assistant cashier of theRosebud Bank.
Tho homesteaders are pouring in
by hundreds, says Mr. Earlr, to get
located lieforo May 1, the limit fixed
for tho establishment of residence. In
driving a distance of fifteen miles he
meet 1JG teams.
The country is full of grafters he
6a vs. all claiming to have "inside in
formation" as to where the railroads
will run and they catch many suckers.
Many of the settlers are entering
the country "dead oroko" ho says and
will have to borrow money or get
credit to carry them over the first
year. These people of course will be
the easy proyof the money sharks who
n:o ready to squeeze the life ont of
their victims.
The town of St. Elmo, which was
stnrted by O. E. Green and other
from Geoua, Mr. Early says, consists
of a solitary town hall, which will
probably bo the extent of that citv's
growth, for the town of Herrick is
only two miles distant.
W. B. Backus is doing big probate
business in Bonesteel, and still enjoys
the reputation of being tho best ball
player in tho country.
