BUSINESS MEN PLAY St. Helena Boats Rainier by a 7 to S Score Tli LnainaM mfl nl ftainf AP ntnA to this dace Thurwlav on the noon train and they came up strong and with the intention of repeating the licking that they gave the business men of this place tt Kainier a short tune ago. l ney were met at the train hv a reception com mit Lee, and immedt"ly came to thit place lor dinner. At promptly two o'clock the umpire, nioaaom. mil ml "l'L.v H ill" and from that time on tbers wut -ooiethlng doing all the time. The St. Helens Improve ment Co. waa on the mound for tbe locals, with the Columbia County Abstract and Trust Co. behind the bat. For the visitors there was nothing doing In the first chapter, but when tbe St. Helens Improvement Co. came to hat in Kt. Helen's half of the first he eot on. and the Mist Publishing Co. got a three bae swat that scored both of them. In the third there wat something doing again, and we put three rnnt across, while tbe visitors annexed three in the fourth. Bt. Helens got one in the fourth and another In the fifth, while the scoring for the Vititort ended with another tally in the eighth. The came was a dandy and belonged to anyone until tbe last half ol the ninth. It was well played, and it was only on Morton's pitching and the heavy hitting of the locals that enabled them to get awsy with it. The next game will be played at Rainier and tbe local boys fiicure on ending the game in about the same manner that the one Thursday was finished. , Uev. Cook, who was catching lor the visitors, broke the third finger on Ms ritrhthand in the fifth inning, which i the onlv accident of the day, and one that waa deeply regretted by ail the boys. Robertson went behind the bat and finished the game lor tbe Rainier boys.

The visitors took the lead and It looked as thou eh thev were going to get awav with the game. In the second nniinr the score was three to nothing n their favor, but by the time the fifth rrive.1 the score was 5 to 5. and from thst time until the end of the game the locals had things their own way, nttimg M,a hall to all corners of the field, while ih Rainier bunch found it rather dim r.iilt to connect with the benders that Chandler was dlstiinir up. Next Sunday ih, t-Pffiilar teams of St. Helens ana Rainier mix at Rainier, and there will be an excursion from this place, so be on hand to see one ol tbe best games that as ever clsved In Columbia Coun ty.

With its last issue the Polk County Observer, published at Dallas, passed out of the hands of J. C, Hayter, the pioneer newspaper man of that section. Mr. Havter was an old friend of the former editor of the Mist and has made a mark in his field in the progressive Willamette Valley. Eugene Foster and W. H. Totten are the new proprie tors. So far this year there have been issued from the office of County Clerk La Bare 308 hunt ing licenses and 397 anglers. Of course there will be some more before the end of the year, but it seems as though there were more people that who go fish ing and hunting once in a while. If you have no license do not break the law hunting or fishing until you get one; for they only cost a dollar each, and the risk of being arrested is not worth running. Louis Wilde, the alleged em bezzler, will be brought to Oreg on from California for trial. The. allegation is that W. Cooper Morri3 and W nd charged the de funct Oregon Trust and Savings bank $90,000 on a telephone bond deal, "splitting" the commission and takine $45,000 each. Morris was an officer of the bank, being its cashier, and he was convicted and is serving a term in the pen itentiary. The legal question that will likely be involved will be as to whether the commisso alleged to have been paid to Wild was legitimate, since he was not an executive officer of the bank. The contention of the prosecution is that he was equally guilty with Morris. The county court is now in sec- sion at this place, and are work ing today on road matters. The balance due Ledoux, Ledoux & Ehrman on the construction of the bridge across Nice Creek was ordered paid, and less the 5 per cent to be held for 60 days amounted to $2842.
