Sweet of the Western Tri-State league has at last awakened to the fact that Connie Starkell is sadly de ficient as an umpire and has put the skids under him. He was released yes terday and James J. Richardson, well known sporting writer, who has been acting as scorer at Boise and who has held the indicator in the league on sev eral other emergencies, was appointed to fill the vacancy. Richardson was sent to Pendleton and will act as ar; biter here this week. Russ Hall having been dispatched to Walla Walla for the Walla Walla-Boise series. - i Starkell had had rough riding in North' Yakima during the: past two weeks, according to reports, one of which said he had been persistently favoring the Home team in close de. cisions.

Wash... by the Rev. J. M. Canse ' to Miss Mayetta Pearson, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Pearson of Hail burton, Ontario, Canada. Tho wed ding is a complete surprise to Maxy's hundreds of friends in Portland. I Mrs. Maxmeyer's parents came to Portland from Ontario about a year, ago and returned to Canada a couple of months ago. ' Maxmeyer and his bride will make their home on Maxey's farm near Corbett station. The south paw, who has been pitching for semi professional clubs arourid Portland since he quitted the Northwestern ag gregation this spring, states that-he will continue his base ball flaying. 80,000 VOICES And Many Are the VoToel of La Grande People c Thirty thousand voices What a grand chorus!
