Hungry Men Found.
An unfortunate man was seen this
morning picking scraps of food from a
garbage can. .This is a rare occur
rence in this city and is all the more
noticeable when it happens. This

ing articles of food to supply the
wants of a family in desperate circumstances.

the local five have not yet attained!

Joseph claims to have
a strong team this year and is making
its first, junket asM result of that
strength. The La Grande lie-up will
not be announced until the game is
called promptly at 8 tonight but such,!
men as Schofieltf, Rosenbaum, Larsen,
Courtney, Esan, Carpey, Proctor and
severer others will probably be seen
in action- during the evening. The
game will be played at the high school
