iam". This team will be com
posed of the best players that
can be picked from three count
ies, Gilliam, Wheeler and Sher
man and so will undoubtedly be
one of the best teams that ever
played on the Condon diamond.
They will give the "Reds" a
close game for the money but
the way the boys are playing
now, nothing outside of an all
professional team can take the
purse away from them so don't
fail to see these games as they
will be "hummers". '
Mr. Editor I recommend The
Passion Play to be one of the
best ever given. These gentle
men (Prof. Sawtelle and Mr.
Welsh) have a magnificent new
of satisfaction and I am sure that
everyone who attends this enter
tainment will get ther money's
worth. Yours sincerely, John
McAllister. At the Armory
Hall, June 25th. at 8:30 p. m.

ing.

County Surveyor J. A. McMor
ris finished a survey in Paper
Sack last week for Chas. Under
wood, Geo. Hardie and H. Green
field. Some people may not
know where Paper Sack is and
why it was named thus. Paper
Sack is in Tp. 5 South, R. 22 East
which makes it about twelve
miles southeast of Condon and the
reason it was so named is this: In
the early days a man was pass
ing through that part of the
country and he had his lunch in
a paper sack. After eating his
dinner he tied up the sack and
hung it on a sage-brush. An
other hungry wayfarer riding a
long the same trail discovered
the sack and took pains to examine
it, but found it empty and since
that day this section of the coun
try has been called Paper Sack.
Mr. McMorris' reports that he is
hampered a great deal in his
work by not being able to get
Field Notes as formerly. He has
to send the cash to the U. S. De
pository and then send the re
ceipt to the Surveyor General in
order to get them and even then
it may be a week or a month be
fore he gets the Field Notes,
whereas heretofore he had only
to write for them to get them
promptly.
