Monticello Pleased With Treatment in Rensselaer.

Harry A. Pingry, secretary of the Monticello Checker Club, in a letter to the players of this city thanks them for the kind treatment received last Friday night and states that in the bustle to eateh the train the visitors had perhaps overlooked the matter of extending their individual thanks. Mr. Pingry expressed the hope that the Rensselaer playets will come to Monticello at an early date for a return game and -asks that the selection of a date be taken up without delay. The Monticello Journal also spoke highly of the courteous treatment shown the (Monticello players. It took about all the capital “V’s” in the Journal head-letter box to tell of the victories 'Monticello scored over Rensselaer Friday evening, for at the same time the checker players were winning their victory here the Monticello high school was drubbing our basketball team over there. Well, our checker players will try to redeem this defeat when we meet again and perhaps we ean use some capital “V’s” ourselves.
