BME BALL GAME
MEMORIAL DAY
? i (\
4. ,
The "Win jammers" baseball
team have arranged for a match
game to be contested on the home
}>ark here on Memorial Day. In
conversation to-day with Paul
Dolan, one of the promoters of
the local team, he stated that he
could not at present state just
what club would play here on Me
morial Day, but it wouTd be a
strong team and the game would
be hotly contested. As this will
[be the opening game of the sea
son in this city, a large number
of lovers of this fine sport are
naturally looking forward to the
event with great 'interest. The
"Win jammers" will give a bene
fit ball this .evening at the Ar
mory, and it is to be hoped that
the affair will be liberally pat
ronized. Tickets only 75 cents.
Music by the full Auditorium
Orchestra.

II. P. Eeker, president of the
Sistersville Brewing Company, is
a busines visitor in this city to
day. Mr. Ecker is trying to in
" terest local dealers in behalf of
the Brewery, which is an assurred
fact. .Mr. Ecker says that the
work of construction will not be
n gin until all the stock is sub
scribed. It is not difficult to sell
stock at all, but the promoters
would rather sell the stock insmall 1
1 amounts to actual dealers and con
sumers than to speculators. The
only fault we have to find with
the whole thing is why did they
not locate here. ? XewMartinsville

Very Proud Of Manufacturing Plant
The Wheeling Telegraph makes,
a splurge about the building of a '
gas engine manufactory at Steel
ton h ii< 1 says that it is the first in
dustry of the kind to be establish
ed in West Virginia. Come out of
the woods! Parkersburg has an
industry of this kind that is the
only one in West Virginia and one ;
of the largest in the world. It j
lias a capacity of two engines a
day, employs over a hundred men
at good wages and sells its pro
duct on both sides of the ocean.
The United States Engine Com
pany is one of the very bigest
Manufactories this city has and it
is very proud of it. AVe'll wager
that the Steelton enterprise, when
completed, will not be half so
large. ? Parkersburg Dispatch.
