OLIVER Slater Block With the score board slowly but surely assuming a balance after RB. kr City had pushed five men over the pan after an awful clout cranlval in which Zimmerman was relegated to deep garden where he soon broke the scorltig machine. Umpire . Tlce stepped In and spoiled every chance La Grande might have had to either tie the score or better it yesterday afternoon. When La Grande was In Baker City last time there came from time to time, rumors of "rotten" umpire decisions. Fandom here credited It all right, but It was not until yester day afternoon that It was brought be fore the rooters with awful vividness. If the admission Is any credit, let it be said that It Is the genera! consen sus of opinion among the fans' and Dugs that Tlce tries to be honest, but he doesn't know enough baseball to be alive, nor has he an eye. Once In a while he makes' a mistake and gets a ball or strike right, but It Is seldom. What claims he holds as an umpire Is too deep for solution. Twice, yes, three times, yesterday, he gave costly -decisions that reeked with ranfcness.

Passenger Agt, Portland, Oreg. eee eeeeee.M -reeeeee eee When his work became so unbearable that the bleachers were about to rub his nose In the convenient mud hole, he ceased his plainly one-sided work and was decent. But that was only In the last half of the ninth. By as sembling hits In a beautiful manner, Baker City tinkled the pan five times In the third session. Cotteman went to the pivot at this time and Zim merman dropped back to his regular position, where he soon brought the grandstand to Its feet and time again with remarkable, and spectacular catching. . A general shift took place In the middle and right garden, but the right was still weak, remaining so through out the rest of the contest. Van Horst started the pyrotechnics fo La Grande with his home run fol lowing Cotteman's two-sacker. Then the score commenced to climb. In the very next Inning there was a swat party of no small means, for hlldcrs and Zimmerman each got home runs in rapid succession. About this time Tlce got in his good work as umpire. He displayed Ignor ance of baseball rules that was appal ling, and a shame. He crimped Lo dell's score and' he called Cotteman out In the eighth Inning when the runner was nowhere near being touched. A hundred eyes saw the act and when Tlce gave his decision, indignation ran rife. Special police saved the umpire's hide. M'hen the last of the ninth was fin ished the fans went home highly sat isfied with the work of most of the boys who played a gooi game through out, but many a fan took a vow that Tlce .would not manipulate the Indi cator today, and he didn't To be de feated, is in the baseball business, but to be handicapped with an Individual who gives every Indication of being buggy handing down decisions right and left that are decidedly off, leaves a bad taste In the mouths of fans which Is not soon washed out. I'll- Divide Suiton. Twenty hollow Iron tubes eight feet In length and four Inches In diameter, having a copper cap on one end bear ing the legend: "Washington-Idaho boundary line. United States geologi cal survey, $250 fine for disturbing this mark," was a part of the O. It. & N. express transfer at the O. R. & N. depot this morning, says the Pen dleton East Oregonian. The boundary marks have Just been sent from the eastern factory and will be put In place along' the boundary line between Washington and Idaho north of Lewlston, where the bound ary has been in dispute for years. Owing to the fact that the old mon uments marking the boundary had been torn down or had decayed, the line has been In dispute for several years and a new survey was made, In which it was feared that Idaho would lose a strjp of territory two miles In width and about SO miles In length north of Lewlston. However, the old line was re-established and the boundary will re- t i T 8 Gents Furnishings, Shoes, Groceries, Notions and Patent Medecines w. c main where it was first located, but to obviate any future discussions these iron tubes will be sunk Into the soil to mar the dividing line between' the two thriving' commonwealths, ' Camp iu Bwk Yard.

Moat people in Walla Walla have, and that Is tho reason why so many contented-looking business- men are seen on the streets every day. They sleep out-doors at night and get up In tho morning feeling fine. In most of the yards of the city are to be found tents, an In some of the yards there are two or three tents up, and every one of them are put into use at night. Walla Walluns have the "sleep ing out of doors" habit and tho phy sicians say it is doing them (the Walla wallans) a world of good. Walla Walla Bulletin.
