La Grande' professional baseball
players are already scattering to other
points of the compass, since the post
season series with Baker City has
been dropped as Impractical. The
first to leave were 8hortstop Houston
and Catcher Fournler, both popular
players of the team before It dis
banded. La Grande had an aggregation that
has called for much comment from
other points In the Pacific northwest
and as soon as the league broke up
practically every one of them had
been signed elsewhere. Captain Al
Lodoll leaves tomorrow for Portland,
from where he goes to Vancouver of
the Trl-Clty league. Pitcher BUI Cot
teman Is going to the Frakes team of
the same league. Pitcher Fuchell and
Third Baseman Wallace Chllders have
signed up with Wallace, Idaho, and
leave soon for their team club. Four
nler may play with Vancouver If his
health permits, otherwise he goes to

Arthur Van Horst who has hovered

Is going back to St Louis and will
probably play ball there the rest of
the season. He has several proposi
tions under consideration. 1
La Grande haa a. tmnch of ball
tossers to be proud of, and the clean
winning of the pennant Is due to the
fact that throughout the season there
has been a constancy In the ltne-up
that was far more noticeable than In
any other league. Every player of the
La Grande team will make good In
any club of the class In which they
have played thus far, and next year
will see some of them advanced a peg
or two.

Game Vnlll tlm Ninth liming When
Visitors Nose Oat Victory.
Baker City won from the La
Grande Babes yesterday In one of the
most exciting games of the season. It
was nobody's game until the end.
The rooters were pretty evenly divid
ed and excitement ran high. In the
first Inning La Grande- made two
runs and in the fifth one, while Ba
ker scored one In the fourth and one
In the fifth. The score stood 8 to 2
In favor of La Grande until the first
of the ninth, when Baker made three
runs.. M1iiti mnA n. "?h !tc
good ball. While eight errors for La
Grande and three for Baker tells the
tale. McGlnnls umpired and was sim
ply awful on balls and strikes. He
also failed to call two balks made by
Gregg. The Baker City rooters cer
"talnly showed the right spirit for base
ball and deserve great credit for com
ing In such a crowd. -
Tne Baker City band played a num
ber of pieces at the park, which were
greatly appreciated by the crowd,
while "How Dry I Am" made the hit
of the day.
To look at the crowd at the game
yesterday made one think what a
shame La Grande and Baker could not
finish out the season when so much
enthusiasm was shown.
The La Grande boys were a nice.
clean bunch of players and the fans
hate to see them leave.

Ronde Electric company, finds that he
has not all the necessary material on
hand to put up the street Illumina
tions, and It will be a few days yet
before the work can be taken up.
The matter of completing the fund
will be taken up systematically today,
and there is no doubt that within a
day 'or two the electric company will
be given sufficient guarantee of the
permanent value of the contract for
this extra lighting to Justify the ex
pense of Installation, which will be
quite heavy. Of the value of the lights
there a no doubt, for there were
hundreds of people on the streets
Saturday evening that do not ordin
arily come down town after dark, and
on every side were heard appreciative
expressions. From a buslnes view
point the increased attractiveness of
the streets Is bound to result In a gain
of dollars and cents to the merchants.
