The week before the two teams iplayed at Wallowa, Enterprise being the victor in a rather loose -contest, with the score 9 to 7. The two teams are playing a little eham ..pionship series all their own, the winner of four out of si possible sev en games to have the honors. In Sunday's game the Enterprise team showed the best form of the season, 'but the Wallowa players were lucking at the bat and did not support Sheiton, pitcher, in winning fashion. Garrick, pitching for En terprise had his opponents at his mercy throughout. Adams caught for the local team for the first time and gave an excellent account of j himsef f.

The line will xilso be run across Snake river connecting with the line that will be built to Cuprum, rabies developed quickly and the oow died immediately leaving the owners in doubt as to the cause of her death. Two veterinaries. Dr. Thomas of Wallowa and Dr. Flack of Blnterprise ni'ide an examination and pronounced Two phone will be put in at different i the case to be hydrophobia.

One phone will be installed at the head of McGraw creek and an other on the trail somewhere about half way up Squaw creek, between the hear! of McGraw creek, the Imnaha Pine Valley Her- r,t!.er cases developed and were im mediately killed, making a loss of five cows for the owners. The only explanation of the cases is that some time ago a rlog want mud on the place and bit a child. Tlfe dog was immediately killed and the supposition is that the cattle wore jalso bitten by the dog. Wallowa Sun. SPORT AND AUTO NEWS. i .1. F. Ravcnscroft, Wallowa lum-1 berman, came over from his honu town last evening accompanied by his family, and after he had attended the Knights of Pythias convention he commenced to make preparations for an auto trip to Portland where he will see the Rose show with his family. Although the new Week-end rates went into effect this morning, none took advantage of them. The plan seems vague to travelers. The pur- j pose is this: Fishing is good at cer- : tain Wallowa and Union county j points most of the Summer and the I O.-W. has made arrangements for the ! following schedule: On Saturday or j Sunday tickets originating between Raker on the East and Mcncham on j the West, will be sold to points bo- j twecn Lookiriff Glass nnd Lostine on one and one-third faro, good return ing Sunday night. It is primarily for fishermen, and as soon as the j Sunday train goes out an hour or two earlier, the fishing public will no I doubt avail itself moro literally of the service than it did today. 'With Summer apparently with us again, streams will begin to clarify and fishing should be tip-top in an other week. At least two families of Cove will strike out early in the week to lest the roads for motoring from Grande Rondo to Portland. Wesley Smitn and family will start Monday or Tuesday and will go to Portland to see the Rose show and also visit thu family of Mr. Smith's uncle, E. II.

So many Motorists had carelessly stated . that "all Tire Tubes are just Rubber." lie determined to show some folks the differrme. In a way they would never forget. There were four Cars at the door, and their Owners or Drivers at his elbow. ' To these he said, "Roys, how strong do you think this Goodrich Brown Tube actually is ? "Do you believe it is strong enough to tow Mr. Otlen's five passenger Car, with four people in it, for 2U blocks? "You don't, eh ! "Well now here's a bit of a Bet I want to make with any, or all, of you. "I will bet you a Dinner that this little old regu lar Goodrich Tube (34x4) will not only tow Mr. Oden's Car, but will tow all three of your Cars. fully passcngered, through the streets, for the full 21 blocks (more than a mile and a half) starting and stopping as many times as the crowd makes it necessary. "I will, if you Gentlemen are agreeable, line up all four of your Cars, right here and now, take three regular Goodrich Tubes Ijap-hazard out of their boxes, tie one tube between each two Cars, (which means hauling three Cars on the first Tube) and tote You all that way to "The Corners." "Are you willing to bet a Dinner that any one of the three Tubes will 'go broke' on the way, or show a flaw which would leak Air, or prevent ita being used Jor its original Tire purpose afterwards? "You are, eh? "Well, the Kefs on 1 "Come along, and you be the Judges." THE Dinner w.is i very Cheerful Affair. As Odcn said afterwards (when put ting up his share of the Bet) "you could have bet me a Million on, that, Parr, and I'd have taken you up, even if I bad to borrow the Million. "I don't see how the blamed Tubes ever hold out, especially going up Saco St. under such a strain.

"Look you," said he, "when we released the load, after the Haul, they instantly snapijed back into just three-quarters of an inch longer than they were at the start! "And that ? of an inch, they took up again in. less than two hours rest" t'TTEXL, boys," Bill Parr remarked, as yy he smoothed out a wrinkle in his well filled vest, "that'll stop the Argument about all Tire Tubes being 'just Rubber,' won't it?" "If the Brown Stuff that ' ' 'd all you Heavy weights, and your JCars, for blocks, without a Sign of Heavy Duty afterwards, is., t something MORR than 'Just Rubber," like other Tubes, then you'd bet ter buy the 'Just Rubber" kind hereafter. "I'm going to ask all of you to sign your names to this 'Texas Tire Tube Test,' just to show that you have taken part in a regular Exploit which is mighty well worth recording." So indeed they did, and here is the affidavit: AFFIDAVIT. This certifies that we, the undersigned, took part in and witnessed, the Texas tube test referred to in the advertisement entitled "How the Texas Tube Test Happened ! " that the test was made on date of Nov. 11, at Wa Texas, the distance cov ered being twenty-one blocks and that the result was as described. Signed W. M. ODEN, J. M. NASlf, B. A. I-RITZ, W. A. PARR.
