THE WALKER GIRLS.
They Came From the John Day Coun
try and Excite Much Interest in
Pendleton.
Perhaps not in the history of Pen
dleton have two people created as
much curiosity and comment as did
the two daughters of William Walker,
of the John Day country, who spent
Saturday and Sunday in town. They
are only ordinary girls from the hills,
who know nothing but a rough coun
try life and have been to town only a
few times, and they had not been In
Pendleton long until word was passed
around that they were "bronco rid
ers," and this fact, with their curious
"method of dress, caused a crowd of
men and boys to follow them wher
ever they went and all kinds of re
marks were made about them and
their garb. They had on men's hats,
Ted calico dresses, made in "mother
hubbard" fashion, with a piece of rope
tied around their waists for belts, and
the dresses did not come down far
enough to hide their shoes, which
were of the very heaviest "stogies,"
with th soles filled with tacks to
keep them iTonr wearing out in climb
ing over ihe rocks and hills.
These young women are about IS to
20 years of age and are the very pic
ture of health. They are well built
and can do as much work as a man,
and it is said,.that they can ride the
wildest cayuse that roams the ranges
of the John Day.
William Walker, the father, is a
stockman in the John Day country
and is said to be in good fi
nancial circumstances, some placing
his wealth at $150,000. w -hQ
Jioards his nionoy -and p'ty and
neglects his duty to his daughters,
ho one appears to know, unless he
thinks there is nothing in civilizing
Influences and proper care of those
depending upon him.

LEAGUES CANNOT AGREE.
Therefore Rule6 will not be Universal
This Season.
It now seoms certain that neither
league will accept tho rules suggest
ed by the Buffalo conference, but both
the Amorlcan and National will play
this season under the same rules that
governed their respective games last
season.
The "compromise" foul strike rule
adopted at Buffalo has been universal
ly condemned and has recolvetl but
little defense from the men who
framed It. That there Is no chanco of
any successful compromise in base
ball under the present conditions was
shown by the result of the recent
conference.
Politics crept Into the meeting in
splto of all reports to the contrary.
The fight between the Amorlcan and
National leagues made the represen
tative of each league a partisan for
the rule used last year by his organi
zation. Tho delegates could not
agree upon elthor one of tho old rules
and so effected a "compromise" rule,
which is conceded to be a makeshift
impracticable.
With the compromise rule general
ly condemned, the politics of the
game caused tho magnntes, with a
few exceptions, to advocate tho rule
used by their own league last season.
As a matter of fact, both rules gave
universal satisfaction in the respec
tive organizations last year, and cith
er one Is a good rule when properly
enforced. The general public, how
over, would havo !.o" lult-r juihCil
if both leagues had agreed upon one
rule and thus brought about the uni
formity desired.
