Saturday evening for the purpose of raising money with which to pur chase base ball supplies. The citizens of Nordmont enjoyod a rare treat Saturday afternoon when the married and single men met on the diamond to decide which were the champions of the great National sport. A great rivalry exists be tween these teams and it proved to I be a battle royal. It will be remembered that the) single men defeated the married j men last fall by a score of 2"> to | and the married men came on the j diamond Saturday determined to regain their lost Laurels. Not be-1 ing satisfied with their home talent battery, one was imported at a cost which they probably now regret.

Mr. Kessler pitched a good game, however, the single men landed on him safely, he triking out but four men. Wieland the pitcher for the single men proved to be a stone wall against which the married men could do nothing, he fanning eleven men.

The Democrats had hoped that they would receive something like support for their proposition to tinker with the tariff from the Republicans of lowa.
