A four piece orches tra t mm Portland will furnish the music and a good time is as ured. Everyone who enjoys dancing should attend this dance and have a good time in addition YIE WIN White Sox Play Fine Game Score, 15 to 4 The game of ball played at ClaU. kanie Sunday by the St. Helens and Clatskanle teams was won by our boys by a score of 15 to 4. At ten o'clock Sunday morning the launch Charm left St. Helens for ClaUkanie bearing the St Hel ens Base Ball team and quite a bunch of faithful, hotwful fans who pinned their faith to Manager Wil kin's bunch to lower the colors of The Clatskanle Gardeners. The same launch returned Sunday night bear ing the same crowd hut before the launch reached the dock, you would have known that the faithful, hojie ful funs had inspired our boys with sufficient "'p" and that the game, was St. Helens'. The battery for St Helens was Stevens and Jamieson while ClaU kanie relied on Joe Haggin and Mc Donald. Now when Joe went into the box, w knew the game was ours, for we have always had his "goat", so just to show what we thought of it we took four runs as our share right off the reel. After this, we salted the game away little by little, never giving the Garden ers a look in, although we must give them credit for making a game fight but with Stevens' arm in fine shape and Jamieson doing the re ceiving like an old leaguer and with the rest of the boys playing big league ball all the time, there was never any doubt as to the result We won't state any individual plays, although there were a lot of them, but everybody was in the game every minute, and the game was well worth going to see. An other thing, those rooters we had along, they heled us a whole lot; they were right there with the right kind of rooting to help Ji team and keep them together. St. Ik'ens has a stronger team now than ever before and when Kelso comes next Sunday, there will be another real game of ball and if our boys can play the kind of jam up ball they did Sunday, there'll be a game well worth going to see.
