find to Peering, the local blacksmith
nnd sherilf. While away, "Silver

011 account of his heel adornments,
enters the blacksmith shop, sees the
reward for his capture, steals the
sheriffs w::tch and disappears.
Kate and Decring- leturn to her
claim only to find the miners in armed 1
possession. A fight starts and three
iren attack Decring. '.Silver Spurs
appears on the scene and helps the
sheriff, returns to him his watch and
laughingly departs.
While waiting fo;- the stage coach

chance. While Kate holds up the
coach but is unable to secure the gold,
"Silver Spurs" keeps back the sheriff

There's no overheating

Guy Patton, premier first baseman '
on the Elgin team since mind of many I
a man runneth not to the contrary, '
yesterday stepped into the breech i
left by young Mlumenstein's bad arm,
and attempted heroically to guide the
Elgin Indians to victory. His career 1
was stormy and he failed in his pur-'
pose but not entirely through any
fault of h'is with the little midiret i
out of the box the Klginites left their '
Knownow m Klgin and brought but i
empty husks to La Grande with them, 1
and, while the error column over-!
flowed and was abandoned leaving no
accurate account, a continuous stream
of bungles got Patton so far to -wen
he was unable to find a haven. Blue
menstein played the field, and may not
be able to pitch for some- little time,
but that won't be so disastrous to El
gin If she will buckle up and support
the first baseman.
As for La Grande, she should have
won. It was in the cards to win. Her
lineup was by far the strongest of
any she has acquired to date, and
though she loosened toward the last,
the nine went rambling right along in
line form as long as there was any
thing to stimulate good playing. With
her lineup as yesterday and with
Manager Melnnis in the form he was
yesterday she would hold her own
against a powerful combination.
It was not until well into the third
inning that anybody scored a clean
hit off Patton Mescrve broke the ice
with a clean three-bagger. McLain
poled out a three-base swat in the
fifth off Patton, but some claimed this
to bs foul. .Well scattered singles up
to four or five besides these extra
base swats were registered off the vis
itors, but none were bunch and with
strong support La Giande would have
been pushed hard to win.
The Elgin batters were unable to
cluster hits except in the first when
Patton singled and Mason scored him
with a three-bagger. Elgin scored
her second run in the fourth largely
through errors, and in the sixth
Bickle went for a round trip. She
scored again in the seventh and eight.
Mean-while La Grande had cleaned
nine.
Matched up with previous games
this year the game was not a stand
aid production and the La Granders
were disappointed at not seeing Blue-
nienstem on the hill tor with mm
there the oldtime Elgin people would
have been running wild no doubt.
By her victory, La Grande forged
to the front in the league, and shunt
ed Elgin into second place with
Imbler. ' '

No Game at Cove.
Due to the heavy rain yesterday
morning, the Cove-Imbler game at
Cove was postponed.
New York, June 1'.). Nick Altrock
and Germany Schaffer, comedy king
pins of the coaching box, have kissed
their crowns good-bye. Carl Sawyer,
u vouno- miuvfrom Des Moines, la.,
now warming the Senators bench and
waiting for a chance to horn in at sec
ond base, has copped their glory.
Sawyer rambled onto the third base
line in the opening game at the Polo
Grounds and in a minute was the
new pet of 20.000 fans. He literally
held up the game Ar a time because
Caldwell, the big Yankee pitcher could
not work from laughing at his antics.
And when Tom Connelly, umpire, told
him to cut it out, he turned his back
and told Tom more things by wiggling
his shoulder than .lawn Evers could
say in a week. Sawyer performs
somersaults that presage a broken
neck but always comes up smiling.
He can imitate a horse to perfection
and when he attaches long slips of
paper to his ear and turns his horse
to a mule the game stops. Sawyer
will stick whether he plays second or
not.
