Never beard of that team, hey 1 ; I started playing ball with' them, the good old Hickory Bottoms of Hopedale, Ham- son county, O. , ; ; I bad been pitching hay, playing ball with some of the farm hands, and we were having quite a time of It A lit tle place called New Athens-not the Athens on up the state, but New Ath ens had a college and some 600 folks. They were rather chesty when it came to playing ball, and when the boys would drive Into town on a Saturday afternoon we would, watch the college boys play balL V They didn't look much to me, so I got our farmer boys In 'line, and we bunted a long time for a name. - Big Stillwater and Little Stillwater were two creeks close by, and we thought we would call ourselves the Stillwa- ten, but some of the fellows kicked on that As we lived in a part of the county called Hickory Bottom and as our first bats we made ourselves out of good old hickory trees, we took up the name of the Hickory Bottom base ball club, and then we started. Say, we didn't do a thing to those college boys! We Just ate 'em alive : Well, I never will forget the day we went to Cadiz. I was down to pitcn, and an I could do was to throw a ball Uke-welL I could throw 'em some in those days. ' Did have an outcurve, I ffuess. but 1 Just counted on speed. The Cadis team bad been cleaning up .vervthlne from Wheeling, Steuben- ville and on down tne nver, ana ro think the Hickory Bottom team would lick them! Why. say, it was a Joke to those fellows. ' ; - We Diaved on a side of a hilL Nev' ball wound quite like that The only thine any way near level was the run from, first to second. : You had to run up hill to first, up bill from third to home and down hill from sec; ond to third. - The Cadlx team had a fellow they called Home Run Grimes. He played shdrtstOD. and his record was a home run or two every game. Say, 1 fanned that fellow every time he came to bat, and we won the game 12 to 1. Funny how they got that one run! It came in the second or third inning, I forget which. But some of. the Cadiz sports got to betting that I would blow up or kill our catcher, and that made me hot again. So I kept firing the balls in sort of reckless-like, and I hit two fel lows, and one man got to base on balls. I hit the next fellow, and that forced In a run. Then I settled down, and we won hands down ... - - - - Nobody ever got hold of his Ideal, or, I If he did, discovered It wasn't his ideal, which amounts to the same thing. Vanity keeps many a man from go- i ing under in the rush. . A Sad Experience. O. K. G. Billings, the famous horse man, had' a sad, heartbreaking expe rience with the first horse ne ever owned. - . ' When Quite a young man Mr. BH lines fancied a fast trotting mare priced to him at $2,000; but, not bav- lne more than 1500 to nis name, ne persuaded his mother to advance him the balance, which she did alter mncn coaxine and begging. In due time bis father beard of the fast trotter his son bad bought and expressed a desire to tnr her. The reaoestf was complied wttn, ana after a few spins on the road tne oia gentleman asked bow much be bad paid for ber. ' ; "Six hundred dollars, father,'' was the answer Wen, Charley, the . mare Is not worth it," said the governor, " out i rather like the way she steps, so I win take her from you, and yon can have your $000."
