THE DUFUR PICNIC.
As Reported by Fatty Brown, Who Wai
Certainly lucre.
The boys must have had a fine time at
Dufur yesterday. Our reporter this
morning interviewed "Fatty" Brown for
the purpose of getting a description of
the baseball game, and this is what he
got :
"Say, Barrett is all right. When he
got in the pitcher's box he sent some
red-cheeked I mean red-hot drives over
the plate, and fanned the boys out as
gracefully as the Dufur girls do. He
can give the ball a curye like that blue
eyed girl's lip. (I forgot you didn't Eee
her.) But say, she was a daisy, talk
about your Dalles girls and your Hood
River girls, they ain't in it. She just
threw a curve glance at me and I fanned
out, never got to first base. She had
black hair, and eyes like a cricket, her
head wasn't big enough to hold them.
The score was 22 to 21 and she was about
18. You just ought to have seen her
cheeks, talk about roses and red apples.
The infield was all right, but the creek
was too handy, and I spent most of my
time fishing the ball out of the creek
with a willow. Say! She reminded mo
of a willow, she was that slender and
graceful and stood 5 feet 4 and wore a 22
corset ; but the boys played a good game
of ball just the same. They had one
Coon in the Dufur team, but he waB n
good ball player just the same; she wore
a green Ekirt with a waist made ot
changeable colored stuff and a hat that
was a flower garden, sure, but he made
Eome good plays and was a good hatter.
I danced with her three times in circum
ference and she Faid 'foolish boy' when
I told her how I felt. Then I felt more
so than before, and she laughed at me.
The boys wanted to stay and play to
day, but I had enough, she couldn't flirt
with me another day, not for a dollar,
and then I supposed she would not be
on hand the next day. That's the reason
we didn't stay, the boys had to get homo
and go to work. I'm going to Dufur
Sunday, got an invitation all right, but
say, the ball game was all right and wu
beat, score 22 to 21 and she was 18 years
old, eyes like a cricket, black hair, fine
picnic it wae, prettiest girls J ever
saw."
And as he closed his eyes in hliseful
memory of the ball game and the Dufur
divinity, our weary reporter, being loaded
with information, slipped away.

It is hard to tell the facts
about Schilling's Best
was no disgrace, and our boys delighted
in a well-earned victory, the score being
22 to 24. Ed. Patterson gave universal
satisfaction aa umpire, while Harry
Esping kept the official score.

G. Dufur, Sd base; G. Moabua, 3d base;

M. Bartell, C. F.

and J. D. McGraves. Three base hits
Max Bartell 3, Joe Daffron 1, Geo.
Moabua 1.
Alter the fifth inning Barrett took
Johnston's place in the pitcher's box,
and won many laurels during the latter
part of the game.
All who cared to trip tho light fantas
tic had a splendid opportunity in the
evening until an early hour, when they
returned home well satisfied with May
day in Dufur.
All the D.iIIub people speak highly of
the hospitality of tho citizens of Dufur,
and express their thanks for the kind
treatment which they received. Should
the Dufur boys care to cross batB with
our boys on their diamond, they may
be sure of a fair uarne and equally kind
treatment at our hands.

Tim Jtahubull Game at Dufur.
The baseball game between The Dalles
and Dufur nines was one of the most'
stubbornly contested and most interest
ing of any in which the Champions took
part this season.
One of the moet pleasant features of
the game, as well as everything else that
occurred during the day, was the per
fect harmony and good will of all who
were present, During the ball game
the vocal chords of all were taxed to
their utmost capacity, however, no per
gonal remarks were indulged in, and at
the conclusion of the game the Duftirites
Jelt that they lud suffered a defeat that
The mild answer and the ample
apology do not always turn away wrath.
The Hood Hiver Glacier rather roasts
the young folks who visited the town
last week for knocking down the flume
and shutting off the water supply, and
this in spite of the very full explanation
given that it waB an accident, and the
expression of regret therefor. Wo ad
mit that it is an awful thing when a pro
hibition town gets out of water, but
really think the kindly editor of the
Glacier might forgive our young people
and forget that there was anything to
forgive.
