Odd Fellows Fumble While The Woodmen Make Scores.
The Modern Woodmen of America gave a practical demonstration of Woodcraft at Riverside Athletic Park Tuesday afternoon, using a baseball tst instead of an ax and wedges Their opponents were nine members of the 1. O. O. F. who batted poo ’y, caught worse and put too much e'evatlon on their thrown balls. When the voice of the score keeper could be heard after the conflict, It was learned that the Woodmen had amassed a total of 53 scores, while the Odd Fellows had made only 4. The Woodmen are feeling a little chesty and have their challenge out for the Knigt}ts of Pythias or any other lodge or society.
