' as u genius with, the stick waft the , only other to single oft Bell the old- time stiekjrs with reputations got no ' wlice yesterday. Dan Conklin's timely hit saved Iml j lor fiom a shutout. If Imbler ever ; needed a hit in her life it was jut 1 then and Conklin produced. Mclnnis tried u pinch hitter in the fifth when a score was u possibility, sending 1 aimer into Kinsley s plmre, hut on tbat occasion and twice later, Palmer fanned. Imbk'r's batting order need fixinu. Her strikes are not consistently ar ranged and had their sequence been different yesterday hhe would have scored oftener. "Speed" Meseive came near slirt ing a real riot at a time when riots were in order by offering to wager five bones with an excited Imbler sup porter, who by the way played with North Yakima here in the Tri-state aays. Imbler was deputing Per.ny well's decision calling Bell out at the I-late. "What are you guys beefing about" speaketh "Speed." "Whenever there are two on bases the runner, from third has to slide home, not come in straight up like Bell did you fel lows ought to know that." A good many on the Imbler bench fell for the bait and rugged at Meserve for an hour. In ths meantime the funster was enjoying the rumpus. 600 GAMES III 2 PARKS LA GKANDE WINNER OVEK 1MB LEK IN THIS 10TH. .Elgin Defeats Cove Two to One in . lta tiling Good Game. Standing of the Clubs.

Imbler was the opposi tion" and presented one of the most stubborn resistances to a La Grande victory that has been witnessed in years. In spite of the dust storm, the two teams and a few spectators wit nessed a battle-royal pitchers tussle. For seven innings tho two teams struggled to a scoreless fight although both aggregations had runners thrown out at the plate on close decisions re peatedly. In the last of the seventh Wnlden went safe on Oliver's 'boot and scored third when Chil lers poked out his second clean hit of the day. Imbler rang the boll twice :in the next inning when Boll started a rally. Bell himself was thrown out :at the plate by a quick throw from .:McLcan but a moment later Rollins was sent home by Dan Cortklin's sub stantial whack that also put Berry pver the pan, he having previously r registerecfat first on a fielder's choice. ; On frequent occasions thereafter Imb . Jer ;crowded the home plate hard but 1 didn't get a solitary score except in the eight which tied the score. The pitching staffs were the chief attractions. Jeff iBell whiffed 15 men ' and Mclnnis 12, which is some total strike-outs for the day we guess. Boll allowed three hits in the 10 innings. .Festivities took a recess in tho begin ning of the extra canto when Imbler filibustered over somo of Umpire Pennywell's decisions. After pro longed debate a compromise was struck, Anderson taking the balls and strike arbitration job and Pcnnywell retiring. The gamo then proceeded ' until the big bust-up came. Copious errors cropped into the game but for nil that it was a better affair than I the gilt-edge show with Elgin a few weeks back. Seldom has a better I pitching duel been fought here. In l some ways Bell had the bulge on i"Iieck" Mclnnis 'but when Mclnnis weakened perceptably, his teammates ! stiffened their defense and saved the day. Imblcr's ballteam is a hard one to beat for they persist to the end. Jeff had good luck with his breaks and i pitched one of the best games of his career, which also did "Heck." With jout a doubt, it was a real ball game.

A big majority of the hingles that were poled out by Imbler went into McLean's territory and the new man behaved very creditably. "Perec" Childers has never been recognized as a Ty Cobb or a Trip Speaker, exactly, but he sure had Jeff Bell's number yesterday. The first time up ho threw his bat at nn offer ing and the bingle so surprised the Imbler infield that he went safe on it; the next time he singled, going to second on the play; the third timj ha drove a hard one to tho outfield and the last time flew out to center field.

(Special) Cove and Elgin had a splendid game here yesterday the score being one all at the opening of the ninth inning, when Elgin put across the winning run. The game was a hummer from start to finish. Blumenstein and Alexander were the pitchers.

Five truckloads of wine and whisky seized by the police May 12, when the Char tier drug store in the Savoy hotel building was raided, were ordered re turned to the drug store vesterday by Police Judge John Bordon.

The court also dismissed charges of unlawfully having liquor in their possession tiled aganist J. C. Chartier, proprietor of the drug store, and W. G. King, manager of the ho tel...
