BARRY'S BOTH WALLOPS THE
BITE A BOOS.
Leader of Pippin Sets Still Pace la
. Hooting Wlnalng Slcely.
To Journey all night that be might
reach La Grande in time to acale the
lofty pinnacle In the center of the
La Grande diamond, and from there
safely guide the Pipping craft of base
ball over a rather perlloua course was
the mission of one Maxmeyer of Pa
cific coast fame, yesterday. La Grande
pulled up during one canto when Hew
itt was woozy and eight men behind
him ail but kicked goal with a series
of weird boots. - Eight times the bell
tolled at the end of that very weird
session and La Grande came back
thereafter with some more gilt-edge
ban and seldom let a Pendletonian
gel to first until the ninth when Max
meyer was touched up. for quite a
tew, and Garrett's cohorts drove la
four runs. The tide was atemmed in
time to give La Grande a well earned
victory.
Barry the Batting Fiend.
n Three times Manager Jack Barry
poled out hits that were good for two
bases and better and a liberal sprin
kling of hits behind readily accounted
for a big majority of the runs. Pen
dleton's infield failed to manipulate a
group of bunts when long drives were
the natural order of events, but Barry
outguessed Garrett nicely. The first
and second, and four innings later on,
were as good baseball as we will see
for a day or two but there were per
iods when long drives and a multiplic
ity of boots redneed some of the bril
liancy of an otherwise clever game.
Hewitt usually prevented a bunch
of hits and bad his men behind htm
produced anything like consistent ball
the score would probably have been a
tie at the conclusion."

Post-Game Remarks.
Two three baggers anda double In
four journeys to the plate Is some per
formance that ia what Barry did as
a pace setter and Luttrell batted .500.
Stan field and Mclmils officiated as
umpire because Longanecker couldn't
reach here In time. Stanfield made
some odorous decrees much to the dis
gust of the Garrett and the La Grande
bleacherltes.
Brilliant catches come and go but
that caper cut by Augustus at short
stands head and shoulders above them
all.
Luttrell. enacted a fibula perform
ance when he had a made-to-order
double coming his way. He batted so
well and timely that It is hard to
chastise him for It
Lawrence, the new second baseman
handled four assists and booted one.
His playing is not bad at that
We are on our way and can Imitate
the scared nigger when he apostro
phized to the rabbit, "If you can't run
get out of the way and let somebody
that can have a clear track."
Maxmeyer Journeyed all night to get
to La Grando and then steered the
Pippin craft to a haven of victory.
Barry bas been trying to get. him.
signed for several daya but didn't ex
pect him In until later In the week,
but lo, and behold, he dropped In when
least expected. Max has plenty of
team and ctuff but at times yesterday
lacked control.
The grounds are a heap better than
they were, The Infield la fully as
good as the Bears' garden.
Jack Barry has a way of keeping
the fetters tight In pinches. He talks
to his men with word of advice about
the time things might otherwise go
wrong.
Judge Crawford says the baseball
player wanted to take the kid to
the circus that Is why there is no
game this afternoon.

PICTURES WUHE CAPITOL;'
Reed Caustle Comment on His Per- i
trait in the House Gallery. ,
Among tbF most Interesting features
of the capitol at Washington are the
numerous paintings of departed states
men and events of Importance Id our
national history. In tbe wide gallery
beck of the bouse of representative
in ftortralfa nf th rHnna inMkM
of the bouse. The likeness of each j
speaker la bung in tills ball of fame
apou bla retirement from otflce. 1
.The portrait of every speaker can be
fo"twd there, with but one exception.
The missing face la that of Nathaniel
Ifacon of North Carolina, who wan
speaker from 1801 to 1807. Macon
was a modest, unassuming man of
simple manners, attired ,al ways In the
coarse homespun of the day, although
an exceptionally able official. A lover
of borne tod cattle, be entered (he
pedigree of ls own blooded stock In
bla family etlble. Macon never posed
for bla picture. Although every effort
baa been made to discover a portrait
f him, the search baa been without
avail.
A service of barely Ove minute In
the speaker's cbalr won for one man a
pace on the wall of this gallery.
Scboyler Colfax, speaker of tbe bouse,
waa elected rice president and took
tbe oath of office on tbe 4th of March,
18)10 On the mnnning of tbst day
Colfax resigned th speakership, and
Theodore M. I'omemy of New- York
waa elected speaker for the remaining
few minutes nf the session.
Tbe picture of Thnmns II Heed was
painted during tbe last year of bis
term of office. When It waa shown to
blm be looked at it closely. He no
ticed tbe protrudlug Up, tbe florid
complexion, the heavy, flabby cheeks
and massive neck. '
nis eyelids partly closed and bis
countenance grew cold. Slowly and
wit bis Inimitable drawl tie com
mented: MI hope that my dearest enemy la
satisfied now."
Then with an expression of Irony on
bis countenance be turned and left tbe
room. ..
Of the mnny portrait from life In
the capitol the most valuable Is one of
0 , tbe Gilbert Stuart picture of Wash-
il Yashlngtou by Stuart One of thesi
jj j Stuart portraits of Washington cost tbe
government $.000. This Is the most
expenslre portrait In the eapitoL How.
ever, other pictures In the building
have been Infinitely more expensive

Erie." at the turn of tbe senate stair
case, shon-lne Commodore Perry leav.

bnttn?. cost $.'10,000.

quently denned, restored and rc
