La Grande Enterprise Joseph , , ,5. , .. . 5 4 .555 ,..1 7 .125 The baseball situation In Union and Wallowa counties is Bomewhat awry, and the standing of the teams is hard to ascertain. The table given above, is computed on the basis that Elgin won the disputed game with Enter prise a fewweeks ago, and also on the supposition that Elgin does not get credit for yesterday's forfeit. Joseph notified Elgin that she was disband ed and could not play at Elgin yester day according to schedule, and "for felted the game". As there Is no or ganlzatlon and no team at Joseph, Bhe can't "forfeit" any game, and : the standing above Is based on that opin ion. . , c . ' ''V' . .';-': v Tournament On Foot . A tournament between the winners of the Umatilla county league, and the leaders of tha Inter-county league and the Eastern Oregon league at the time the explosions occured, is now being arranged and It is !Reiy that it will take place next week. These condl tlons would bring together Weston, Elgin and Cove at Elgin, for about seven games. Enterprise and La Grande played a loose game here yesterday, Enterprise winning 16 to 6. Both teams contract ed cometlc fever and went way up be fore settling dowu to customary play Ing. Browne was In the box for La Grande, but the game was never In terestlng. - "SIGN OF THE CROSS" ENDS SADLER ATTRACTIONS Dramatizations of "The Sign of the Cross" have been seen and heard by the most of us, and nearly all of us have heard the masterpiece recited, but none, no doubt, have heard a more stirring delineation of the characters portrayed in that story than did some four hundred last night when the clos ing number of the Doctor Sadler com pany was read at the Chautauqua grounds. Miss Wllmer's recital was in a class by Itself. The thrills, the pathos and flow of masterly diction that fill "The Sign of the Cross" from cover to cover, were manipulated with rare skill by Miss Wilmer. The story of persecution of the Christians at the hands of Nero and his lieutenants, the passionate love story interwoven with the blood curdling scenes were all told In Miss Wlllmer's own Interpre tation of the characters. The recital was a fitting close of the Sadler com pany's stay in La Grande. It is doubtful if any other team or Chautauqua attraction could have won such warm places In the heart of La Grande, as did the Sadler company. Tbey hate simply captured La Grand with a whirl and it was with deep re gret that the Cbautauqua-golng pub lic, parted with the company last evening. Yesterday ' morning Doctor Sadler delivered a rare bit of a sermon on "Health and Righteousness," and dur ing the afternoon he addressed an In teresting crowd of men on topics not discussable with a mixed audience, during this age of prudery. At the same hour similar subjects were handled by Doctor Lena K. Sadler to a crowd of ladies, and the only re gret expressed . was that the entire population of La Grande did not hear them. The Chautauqua management Is deserving of the highest praise for bringing such an attrnctfon to La Edward Brush, the Magician, .Mho reached La Grande yesterday with a carload of live animals and parapher- nulla 1, j ul. w unru nuu 1119 V UUlOUIJUa attraction.
