The ball game last Saturday between Ivanhoe and Wauconda was one of the best games ever witnessed in our village, Wauconda winning to the tune of 5 to 4. Ed Dietz was on the rubber for the visitors, and the way he sent the leather in the vicinity of the home plate induced thirteen locals to fan the air. W. Golding was also in form and fielded his position perfectly. Great pitching, good hitting and sharp fielding combined to make the game a pretty one for the onlookers. Such good form in the first game encourages us to say that Wauconda has a team the equal of any in our vicinity and superior to many. But this can only be proved by a trial. Address J.E. Duers, Wauconda, Ill.
N.B. Duers retired from the stage route Wednesday morning. For eight years Mr. Duers has held this responsible position, and during those years he has proved himself one of the best stage drivers Wuaconda has ever had. Money entrusted to him has been well cared for and errands have been faithfully carried out. Passengers have received every accommodation at his hands, and all speak highly of our retiring mail carrier. All in all, we should fell a very severe loss in his retirement were we not fortunate enough to secure a worthy successor in the person of Mr. M.S. Ford, who is a man of high standing and ability, and we look for another long term of good stage service. We receive two mails a day now, the first leaving Wauconda at 6:30 a.m. and returning at 12:30 p.m., and the second leaving at 2:30 p.m. and returning at 8:30 p.m.
