FROM THE COUNTY. John Berlet, of Germanville town-

ship, had a very narrow escape from serious injury one day last week. He was working in the hay ]oft of his large barn and in some manner fell through a hay hole to the first floor but in his descent he grasped the hay rope and this broke his fall and when he reached the landing place was un- injured with the exception i t:h a t his hands and ;fingers were severely burned from the rope passing through them. It was a very lucky escape.

Efforts are being made for a. three day baseball tournament to be staged in Chatsworth commencing Sunday, August 23, and continuing on Monday and Tuesday. On Sunday the Globe House team, of Kankakee, which play- ed a fifteen inning tie game with Chatsworth, will play here and if sat- isfactory arrangements can be made Saunemin will play here on Monday and Dwight will play here on Tues- day. This will give the lovers of base- ball a feast and there should be a large attendance at each game.

The boiler on the threshing engine belonging to Kuliman Bros., exploded last Tuesday morning at about 9 o'clock but luckily no one was in- jured by the explosion. The outfit was at the farm of Rudolph Rebholz, south of town. Like all ooiler explo- sions the real cause will never be known, but the supposed cause was the rusting off of several bolts. Fire was scattered about by the explosion but there was little damage done, a small amount of oats being burned. During the excitement William Reb- holz fell from the water wagon and sprained his foot and this was the only accident.—Chatsworth Plaindeal- er.

John and Patrick Sheehn were ar- rested at Cullom Friday evening by Sheriff W. A. Patterson and Deputy Sheriff J. R. Ives, charged with drunk and disorderly, resisting an officer and threatening an. officer. They were taken to the county jail and taken be-I fore Justice Baker, where their case was continued for ten days. Each was placed under a bond of $500 to await their hearing. It is alleged that the two men had come to Cullom to au. tend the Cullom Day celebration and had imbibed too freely of liquor. They are said to have become noisy on 'the street and when a constable request- ed them to be more orderly it is al- leged one of them drew a knife.

Williams was bride's maid and Mr. Chas. 'Williams, the best man. After the ceremony a fine wedding supper was served. The bride is the oldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Ide of this city and is highly respected by her large circle of friends in Cor- nell and vicinity. The groom is a man of sterling character/and has a great many friends here who will unite with The Journal in wishing the young couple great success and happi- ness throughout their married life. They expect to go to Missouri later in the fail, where they will visit with h Mr. Bridge's parents and other rela- tives.—Cornell Journal.

With this in view contracts have been signed for one of the leading sopranos of the Chicago Opera Company, one of the world's three greatest string quartettes, and one of the leading tenors of the CM- cago Opera Company, supported by a concert pianist of renown.

Tuesday afternoon the Pontiac Ath- letics and the Streator Moose played the opening game of the baseball ser- ies at the Big Bend reunion at Cor- nell, and the Athletics won by the score of S to 7. The batteries were, for Streator, Ballard and Ketcham; for Pontiac, Donahue and Foster. Much credit is due Donahue for the victory of the Athletics. He pitched in fine form, allowing only five hits and struck out sixteen men. He also was strong with the stick, getting four of the eight hits credited up to the Pontiac team. The score was tied in the ninth, when Miller was passed to first by being hit by a pitched ball. Spaniel followed him at bat and clout-
