Fails to Score. Can the Alma High School football team keep up the gait at which they have started? Following closely on their first victory over Maple Hill, our boys cleanly and fairly outplayed Eskridge Saturday afternoon, winning by a score of 11 to 0. Eskridge says this is their first defeat in 12 years and they took it like little majors. Capt. Davis said after the game: "you "beat us fairly and cleanly, because you outplayed us all around.

We do not feel sore over that kind of defeat and will try and do the same thing to Alma when; they come to Eskridge on Oct. 8th. We are well pleased with oun treatment and have no kick shown in the new museum room and many promises of gifts for this department were made. The meeting was opened by Pres. W.

Score 11 to 0. There was nothing doing in the way of a score in the last quarter but Eskridge gave us a bad scare at the wind-up, being within a few yards of Alma's gal when time was called. Neither teamihowed very strong team' work o- ing to the earliness o5 the season and the small amount of practice. It was mostly individual plays, in which Will Waugh and Jim Cook showed up strongest for the visitors. It is a little hard to pick the Alma stars.

St John, Henderson, Bartell and Gardenhire made fine gains in carrying the ball and Stuewe and Lieurance were strong on the defense. Eskridge worked the forward pass for their best gains and Alma did not seem to be able to break up this play. The teams were pretty evenly matched in size and speed and it was a very interesting contest. Here is the line up as near as we can get it, though the positions given of some of the visitors may be wrong: Eskridge. Position.

Miss Josephine Emrich. There is a small bunch of boys, op near-young men, in town that need to be taken care of. They stay up and roam around at all hours of the night and lack the good sense to keep still. Part of their enjoyment seems to be to bawl and yell and howl and sing, to the full capacity of their lungs. Alma has a mighty fine lot of young folks but these boys are headed the wrong way.

Rush sale on the Neh-ring branch drew a big crowd Friday and amounted to right near $5,000. Chas. Clayton of Eskridge got 11 head of young mules and Henry Loehr five head, prices running from $140 to $250 a span. Louis Kaeckell of Allen, paid $73 each for two Hereford cows with calves by side. A lamentable accident occurred when Ad Lund was knocked down and run over by a wild colt, breaking his collar bone andi cutting a bad gash over his left eye.

We understand that most of the steers were bid in by Rushe and did not sell. All the candidates were there to help eat up the free lunch and the fried chicken.
