J of nature and has purchased 40 acres
of land near Elgin. He will move on
the land soon and make Elgin his
home city. - Like so many others he
realizes the value of EHgin land and

Stole Match and Kin?.
Officer Faulk today arrested a Greek
wanted in Welser for stealing a watch
and ring from a fellow countryman.
The ring and watch were found in
his possession when searched.
SPECIAL TRAIN IS ASSURED.
Stores Will Close and All Will Go to
Union Next Friday.
President Collier, of the Commer
cial club, has been advised by the O.
R. & N. Co. that the request for r j
special train from La Grande toUnkv
on Friday has been granted and th
fare will be $1 for the round trip fro
this city to the city of Union. Th
hour of the train's departure has no.
yet been decided upon.
Practically all the merchants have
agreed to close their stores on Fri
day and a general, enthusiastic effort
Is now on to take as large a crowd
as possible to the neighboring city.
Tomorrow night at 7:30 in the Com
mercial club rooms a meeting of busi
nessmen and citizens will be held to
push the campaign for passengers on
the special train in order to fill Union

Fls-litlng Is Resumed.
Elueflelds, May 30. -Fighting has
resumed about Elueflelds, but no gen
eral attack was made today. It was
mostly skirmishing between small
parties and the opposing army.
It is believed that Estrada will bi
able to hold the city despite the fact
that the government has captured the
custom house and is holding the bluffs
overlooking the city. Neither side is
strong enough or possess knowledge
enough to make a successful aggres
sive campaign although each side is
strong on the defense. 'There is an
unverified report that a truce may
be declared as the generals are con
vinced they cannot take the city, A
report that ' more American marines
are en route leads to the belief that
American Intervention is certain.
There is a belief that Americans
desire to end the revolution and keep
peace until another national election
Is held.
BIG AIRDOME OPENS SATURDAY.

artist of Salt Lake, and theatergoers

years noticed the excavation being
aone on Adams avenue today and
round upon Inquiry that it means the
advance work of paving was begun,

Yesterday.

La Grande . ..

Mclnnis and Pldcock, with spas
modic assistance from a few of seven
other' players lost to Enterprise yes
terday in an exciting game of base
ball at the Lincoln park. Running
bases like McCredeites, and backing
up the big twlrler Bilyou, with al
most faultless precision, the Wallow-
ans were able to tinkle the pan four
times while La Grande came across
but twice; and that at a . time when i
lit th nlnvora wr tnvrthor and I
clouting Bilyou's shoots often.- But
for all the fluctuations, the game wa3
jood and the.fars got their money's
worth, and all will go again is they
can see the same sort of ball. La
Grande has a veritable whirlwind In
the box. Mclnnis need take the back
seat for no one, as he has speed, con
trol and Is always in the game, few
of the others In fact Bradley, alone
of the Infield, were at all reliable. The
chief difficulty with La Grande is
that all the player are not playing
all the time. The talent represented
in the lineup is as good as can be
found anywhere and once they get tc
playing ball together, It will be all
off with the rest of them.
The game waa snappy and fast and
the fans came away feeling that the
squad Is much stronger than it was
two weeks ago. The battery is the
basis of all teams, and no improve
ment can be made on the one now car
rying La Grande's colors. Every fan
w,lll say Mclnnis is the best pitcher
seen here In several years barring
none and If the fans and players
alike will put their shoulders to the
wheel La Grande will have the best
allround team In Eastern Oregon
within a week. The talent Is here
though now dormant.
For the visitors, Bilyou, the Pitch
er, and French on third base made
the best impression though there is
not a weak spot In the entire Enter
prise lineup.

A youug pitcher may come Into the
big leagues from a minor club "with a
great , record. He may have good
curves, fair control and great speed.
il aDy people are under the Impression
that this Is all that Is needed to keep
the recruit In fast company. This is
not so. however. The youngster may
possess all these qualities and yet may
not be fit for fast company, and be Is
quickly sent back to where he came
from. It Is the little things that count
the most for the twlrler In the big
leagues. For Instance, her are a
few: A pitcher must know how to
stand when a runner reaches first
He must learn how to use his shoul
ders In making a quick movement aa
if to throw to first when shooting the
ball up to the next batter. . This little
act will serve to make the runner keep
on the Jump, not knowing Just what
Is going to happen.
Another important point for a young
twlrler to master is In covering first

who Is in the habit of running over to
cover first sack whenever a ball is hit
In the right field direction is of great
value to a team in every game played.
The matter of learning to cover the
Initial sack on the pitch Is easy. All
the twlrler must do when delivering
the ball Is to slightly incline his body
io the direction of first corner, and in
the swing with the ball he gets a fair
ly good start In the desired direction.
Every now and then the fans read
of 'boneheads" in baseball. The rea
son for this is that they do not possess
a subconscious mind. Many times
there are plays on the diamond which
the player must as soon as the ball is
hit know exactly what to do. His
bands and feet must be ready to act
with his mind. Many persons call
this Instinct, but It Is nothing else,
however, than the inner mind. In this
advanced day of the gnme ball tossers
must think -and do so rapidly. They
must also pnaseHs au Inner mind.
Could a manager have on bis team
nine such iiu-n he would come close to
owning a pennant winning team.
'How many times have, you read
about the wonderful curves that some
young pitcher has, and just as soon as
the seasou lengthens how little do you
hear of him! A pitcher with freak
ball and curves does not last very long
In the big leagues.. , . '
In the first place, throwing that kind
of balls all the time is so bard on the
muscles of the arm that' one cannot
stand the strain very long, and, second
ly. In time the batters are bound to
get . wise to curves and then bat tbem
all over the diamond.

to access a pitcher Jw to learn how

Of course this should be varied occa

tight pinch a curve or a slow drop will
do no barm. Just make It a point to
see how many batters make a safe hit
off a ball that comes in swift on the
