La Grande, 18; Walla Walla, 8. Pendleton, 9 ; Baker City, 0. The Pendleton Indians, after scalp lug the Baker City Gold Diggers twice, Bimply massacred, them in the last game of the series Sunday. Hays pitched championship hall, and' at no time did the men from the mines have a chance to cross the home plate. Only two dinky little hits could they Bcratch out, and those were not made by any of the numerous ex-leaguers of the team. No Baker City man walked, and pieht succeeded in landing on noth ing three times. Ithea supported the little pitcher in splendid style anu succeeded in taking in two difficult fouls. The game was opened by Brown fanning. Fay lined out a double in side third base, but died at second, while Stovall and Schmidt each flew out. Brown to Mahaffey. Arneson sot in the war of one of one of Havs1 curves and went to walk to first, but he was forced out at second by Hupp, who promptly stole second, likewise third. Lou Mahaffy struck out and Brown flew out Hays to Stovall, thus Baker's chances for a score went a glimmer ing. The second inning was uneventful, hut in the third, Pendleton got busy, and the way the Indians chased one another over the home place was "warm doings." Brown reached firat on an error of Arneson, Fay knock- prt a ernundpr to HllOD. Who over threw first, allowing Brown to get to third. Fay then stole second and wheu Schmidt soaked the ball for two hairs'. bP- and F&y scored. ; Wilner singled, scoring , ocumiai and. Cox got to first on a fumble of Arneson. Woods threw to first to catch Cox, but him him instead the ball bounding into right field. . Before it was recovered Wilner went home and Cox got to third. Rhea followed with a single which scored Cox. Chapler also singled, which put Rhea on third. TTnvR was out for bunting the third strike foul. Brown singled nd scored Rhea and also Chyler, who had stolen second. Srown took sec- GI1S Gd Leech's error and there he died when Fay flow out, Hupp to Mahaftey. Seven runs was all Pen dleton could get in this inning. Baker City had a man on third in the fifth, with two men out, but- he died there. After this only one Dig ger got to first, but he died there by a neat double, Fay to Stovall. With two men out in the fourth, Wilner was hit by the pitcher and advanced to third by Cox's Bingle. Cox stole second and Wilner scored on Woods' throw to catch him. In the- ninth Fay drew ,a pass, stole second and third in succession, and scored on Wllner's hit, Thi flmililn nlavs. L. Mahaffy unas sisted and Brown to Arneson to Mahaffey, were pretty features of the game. The work of Roy Ryan as umpire, during the series was excellent, both teams being satisfied with the de cisions rendered. Pfitirtleton won three of the frames with ease and the one which was lost should have been won but for unfortunate errors at very critical tlmM. Wilner deserved to win this game, but most of the team had an. off day. - The Score.

Pendleton won the third of the series with Baker City in a game which was devoid of spectacular fea tures save the splendid .work of Taylor in the box.

The Indians scored six runs In the seventh. lnnlnc by bunching hits and taking advantage of Bakers errors. The Gold Diggers' two runs were made in the sixth on the errors of Fay and Schmidt.

Young Sailor's Heroism How aw Brave British Tat Brought Plague Ship To Port Before the UrtUsh admiralty court not ninny weeks ago there came out a tragedy of the sea, intensely dramat ic mid replete with human suffering. Moreover, it developed a hero In the wnon of a young English sailor, Fred Tf. Bryant by name. Young Bryant was second mate of the freight steamer Crown Point, bound from Philadelphia to London. When a few days away from Queens town, she sighted a sailing ship whose erratic movements gave evidence thai something was wrong on board. As the Crown Point came closer the stranger ran up signnls which rend: "1 am the Planet of Hamburg. Can you take me 'In tow?" When a few minutes later the enp tnin of the Crown Point boarded the A MAD DOG SPBANO AT BEX ANT. Planet he found a worse state of af fairs than he had ever seen on a ship before. ETery iiiah but one was suffering with Scurvy. The first mate bad (ilea of it, and his body had been thrown over the side. The cttptnlu nud the second mate were in their berths with the disease, and the captain was po far gone that It was only a question of how many days he would live, and the second mate was aB weak as a baby and enduring agonies. The other men were so ill that they staggered as they walked about the deck. The Planet had had a terrific voy age. She was bound from Mazatlun, in Mexico, to Queenstown, and, al though a sailing Bhip generally makes that passage in 120 days at the out side, the Planet bad been 1G7 dayB out when spoken by the Crown Point She had encountered a hurricane al most at the start and had been blown .ashore. After that head winds had been her portion, with the result that the voyage dragged and dragged. Then the scurvy came. The officers had it most severely, although they bad sup posedly fared better than tho men. So It was that the only men of the Bhlp's company who knew anything about navigation were either dead or helpless, aud the rest were too sick to do much more than manage the sails, and that was their condition when they sighted the Crown Point As soon as the captain of the steamer beard how bad things on the Planet were he decided to tow her to Queens- town. First he sent Bryant, .who was his second mate, to take charge of af fairs on the Planet The Planet was then mado fast by means of a wire hawser, but the Crown Point bad hardly started before the cable snapped. This accident mado the captain change his mind. He went on bonrd tho Planet and asked Bryant if he would be willing to take the ship into port and the young matf promptly replied that be would. Fresh provl elons and medicines were sent aboard. and tho Crown Point continued on ber way. On taking stock of his crew Bryant found them well nigh helpless. Their eyes were terribly bloodshot their gums were blue and their legs and feet swollen, ,oae of them could ,rattle ev ery tooth in his head. They were so:far gone that they were not even able to (haul In the ship's anchor clmln, which bad been made font to the Crown Point's cable. It bad to bo unshackled anu let go. The next discovery was that only one man on board could speak English, which ho utilized ns beta he .could to inform tho uoweomor that the ship was Infested with what ho miiioii "schmall snakes rait feet." That ineuul aeorplons. Tbeshlp had a -cargo or log' wood, from which clyeB and occasional ly "red wine" are. made aad ;wlilch, la frequently inhabited by)' RcorpteM ,'at well as by centlpeaB. Tfie bite 'of a scorpion Is deadly, and Bryant was not reassured by the Information thatsonw twenty or more, of the .reptiles bad found their way on deck. Bryant's first exploration aft was eventful. The stench whb 'horrible, but he summoned up nil his fortitude and opened the first door .he came to. Thoro wan a .sudden snHrl. and then a gaunt, wild eyed Mexican? terrier waf upon him ana triea to Dury ira teem in the young officer's thick sea boots. Brynnt kicked the brute" down th naKsnce and turned his attention to 'the occupant of tho room, who proved tc be the second mnte. 'uo poor wretcn was in a bad way. His body was dread. fully puffed, his gums were purple, and his tongue was sq BWoIlen that it ai mnqt filled his mouth. He could cat nnthlnc. In an adjoining room lay tho'captalri in nu unspeakably horrible condition. lie was unconscious, aud his every casi) for breath mndo a sound thai would terrify the stoutest heart He spent tortured hours -with the cnptnln nnd mnte, doing everything Jus could think of to improve .their condi tion. Ncclcct or nursing wnB all the same to the captain, but the mnte wns conscious and in especial need of at tention, for it appears that in health he had abused the men, and now they were disposed to let him alone to die unattended. " Looking to the captain, feeding the second mnte, trying to cheer up the men. overseeing the men and endeav oring to improve, the generally filthy condition of the craft occupied all of Bryant's time. He suffered tortures from loss of sleep, often getting not morn than two or three hours n night Enrlv one morning a shnrk appeared alongside the ship. The superstitious crew argued, therefore, that there was to bo n death on bonrd, especially ns the dny was Friday, and nt that mo ment the rough old captain -was breathing 1i!b last down in his cabin It was necessary to bring the body up on deck at once, for decay had be gun before dissolution. Chains had been fastened nround the dead .man's ankles in order that the body might sink, nnd when the service wns finished one man took the canvas covered figure by the head, another by the feet and dropped it over the side. Then a thing hnppened that capped .the climax of the Journey's horror. The weights on the captain's feet were not heavy enough. The body stood bolt upright in the sea, head and shoulders out ot the water, nnd the air, filling the canvas, made it move In ghastly fashion in the ocean swell. The ship was making no headway, and for two hours, till darkness mer cifully drew a curtain over the sight. the grewBome thing lingered under the stern of the ship, swaying and dip ping horribly in the long twilight Perhaps the best way to summarize what happened after that "will be to quote from Bryant's diary: "Wednesday. Second mate gradual ly sinking, and I am once more losing hope for him, I sincerely hope he may loBe consciousness, as the captain did, for he must suffer terribly. It's a fight for him to get breath. Men are employed cleaning 'brasswork about the deck. "Friday. Called at 1:30 a. m. to go to second mate. Second mate died. No body but the boy Max and I was with him at the end. I am' pleased to say that ho lost consciousness about 4 o'clock, and bis death was a very peaceable one. Took In main topgallant sail. What with the death of that poor man and a gale blowing my hands nro pretty full. I do jyish 1 could get some sleep. At 7:3C p. m. burled second mate, Max reading prayers for the dead from tho German prayer book." After fourteen days "Captain" Bry ant brought tho Planet into port. He had proved himself almost as capable a physician as a Bkipper. too, and hie men were in mighty different physical shape from what they were when nrai the second officer of tho Crown Point saw them. Of course -tho American rowners of the Crown Point nut in a claim for sal vage. The case (was tried fin the Irish conffa. and. after tvnlcalLv lacal de lavs, the owners of the Planet paid $4,500 for having tbeir Efiip brought in to port . n Just how this money should be dlvid ed. however, was a knotty,polnt for.'its recipients.
