Thirdly, In spite of the remark, able notoriety which the disease has attained, the general dread of Its oc currencewhich has been recently veil expressed In a statement that everybody either has had It, or ex pects to have It, or knows somebody who has had It the actual percentage of occurrence of grave appendicitis la small. In the United States census of 1900, which was the first census In which It was recognUed as a Boparnte cause of death, It was responsible for only G000 deaths In the entire United Flutes for tho 10 years preceding, or about one death In 200. This, rate Is corroborated by the data, now reach ing Into thousands, from the post mor tem rooms of our great hospitals, which report an average of between a half und one per cent. A disease which.

While appendicitis is one of the "realest" and most substantial of tils eases, and, ln Its serious form, highly dangerous to life, there can be little doubt that there has come, first of all. a state of mind almost approaching panic In regard to It; and, second, 0 preference for it as a diagnosis, ns so much more distingue than such ple beian names as "colic," indigestion," "enteritis" or the plain old Saxon "bellyache," which has reached nlmost tho proportions of a fad. It Is cer tain that nowadays physicians have almost as frequently to refuse to oper ate on thoso who are clamoring for the distinction, as to urge a needed operation upon those unwilling to sub mit to It. The satirical proposal that a "closed season" should ho established by law fur appendicitis as for game birds, during which nope might be taken, would apply almost as often to the laity as to the profession, even the surgical half.

They were disappointed be cause It rained and the game had to be called off In the first Inning. The only pleasant feature about it was that La Grande had scored one run and had a man on the third station when a downpour of rain chased fans and players to, the hotels.

Mayor E.. J. Murphy, attended by his train of council men, cast the first pebble over the base In tho game Sunday afternoon between Pendleton and Walla Walln, and thus officially launched the Inland Empire league season In this city. Amid clouds of dust and with a cold wind chilling the spectators, Walla Walla went Into the cellar class here yesterday ln the first game of a scries of four to be plnved here, by a score of 8 to 5. The Walla Walla men show ed splendid form for their first ap pearance under the new colors, and will figure In the race for the Inland Empire league pennant.

Hudson Gets Blue Ticket. Elgin, May 25. (Special.) There was being doin"s here yesterday after noon. Following one of the most brillalnt exhibitions of baseball that Elgin has put up In many moons, and one of the poorest exhibitions of pitch ing seen in the same number of moons plus a few more, the Cove team de parted for home after being drubbed to the tune of 14 to 0. Immediately following the one-sided affair Mana ger Stock of the Cov team tied can to Pitcher Hudson, charging him with purposely throwing the game to Elgin. There was considerable indig nation both among Cove and Elgin four men, forcing a run. In another session he twirled 16 balls over the plate without a single strike. The twlrler was off from start to finish, and he was batted and slammed around the field In a distasteful man ner. The Cove manager has a new pitcher on the string and will be ready by next week to carry on the business as before. The rest of his team play a fairly good gamo, but nothing could suffice against Hudson's work. Gobblers Befouled. Union, May 25. (Special.)
