Description	Paper of July 5th covers a game of the previous Sunday (July 1) between the East Side Maroons and the Tower Baseball Club. The Maroons won 23-12. Other matches were covered that summer. First iron ore mine in Minnesota was the Tower-Soudan mine which sent its first shipment of iron ore to Two Harbors in 1884. Tower was the locale of the brief Lake Vermilion gold rush of 1865-1868. The first intra-city matches involving Tower and Ely and Two Harbors started around 1890 (more research needs to be done). Census high for Tower was 1,366 in 1900.
