Cupid Makes Hit With Well Known Wheatfield Ball Player.

In baseball there is no more wicked thing for a pitcher to do than to “lay down” and let the other fellows hit the ball. Lou Jensen, the Wheatfield pitcher, was never that sort of a fellow. He was always a hard worker in every department of thh game. In love affairs, however, it is different and when Dan Cupid comes to bat no criticism is made if the pitcher in the battle of love stays his speed and forgets his curves, for a little while. That is all Dan wants, just a fair phance, and Jie . will get any ball player just the same as any other ordinary man. He made a hit with Lou and having a diamond handy Lou presented it to the young lady of his choice and thus exchanged a hit L r Cupid for a home run for himself. , The game will be completed in Rensselaer this Wednesday evening at the home of the groom’s brother, Tom Jensen. Rev. C. L. Harper, of Trinity M. E. churcjr will be the umpire and there will be no kicking on his decisions. The game will be in the presence of a few relatives only, no paid admissions and no complimentaries, even the press being excluded. Miss Mary Clager, of Wheatfield, is the choice of the well known ball player for a life companion. The score sheet will be published in the course of a few years.
