At Baker City the Saturday and Sunday games split even, tho Gold Diggers taking the Unst with a score of 6 to 3, while Walla Walla walked aVay with the second by the respec table score of 9 to 4.

Pendleton took the eighth straight game from La Grande Sunday in a slugging match which. was exciting for the first six innings, but which turned out to be the same old story. Bolin, the new pitcher for the Beet Pullers, was batted with a freedom which bordered on familiarity. He was wild, glvlng-10 passes to firBt and 17 hits were made off him. Wilner opened the game for Pen dleton, but wb not in good form asd in the sixth Hays' was put in"the box. Adams behind the bat, caught a fiae game. This game was the best game which the Indians have played during this series. Schills acted as captain in the absence of Brown. Good Until Seventh. The came waB a pretty one up to the seventh, when the Indians land ed on Bolin for seven hits, which, with two passes and two errors, net ted eight runs. Schills made a nice stop of a grounder with one hand. Cox played a fine game in center; Hays made a home run over the left field fence. The .umpiring of Mitchell was, as usua, unsatisfactory.

Attendance 780. An Exciting Contest and a Narrow Escape for the Indians. The Indians had a narrow escape Saturday, winning out by one score after they had the game almost cinch ed in the fourth inning, by making flvo runs. Rol Brown, the pitcher, who, while with the Yellow KJds, re fuBed to play off the tie with Pendle ton, was in the box and as of old, the Indians batted him all over the lot A home run, two doubles and seven singles in the first four Innings, re sulted in 10 runB. Brown was taken put and McGucken was substituted. The new man pitched a good, steady game, allowing only three scattered hits. Beet Stock Was Up. In the ninth it looked favorable to the Beet Pullers winning the game. Black worked his little game of be ing hit by the pitcher and was allow ed to take first Brown was safe on error of Hays. Shay attempted to bunt, but flew out to Taylor who sent the ball to first, catching Brown off the bag. Thompson singled, scoring Black and Castner flew out to Schmidt. In the fourth inning Catcher Brown got the thumb of his right' ' hand In the way of one of "Slat's" curves and It" was broken. Rhea was put in his place behind the bat. Brown will be out of the game for two weks at least Star Plays Made. "Tamarac" Adams made the star catch of the game In center field, by nabbing a long fly against the fence. Adams, of the" La Grande team, also made a very pretty running catch. Fay, at short, played a good game; while Black, at third, did some fine work. "Big Fellow" Stovall, as usu al, won the batting honors with a homer, a double and a single. Umpiring Was Fierce. The umpiring of Mitchell wasvile. Such an array of rotten decisions in one game waB never seen before on any diamond. Some of the verdicts were bo rank that It was ridiculous to think any man with eyes could be guilty of such hallucinations. It is generally conceded that Mitchell de sires to be fair, but his work is a parody on the real thing. Tho Score.

Attendances-IB'). A DOUBLE MASSACRE, New Kind of earns at tho Baooball Park Sunday Afternoon. A large and enthusiastic audience consisting of half a dozen women, 10 or 12 men and about 20 Bmall boya, gathered at the Alta baseball grounds Sunday afternoon to witness a brand new kind of game placed on tho boards by the printers aud Wonders. Before the performance began it was scheduled to be a gahio of base ball, but anyone who ever witnessed a ganio of ball could toll with their eyes shut that it wasn't basoball. It resembled ping pong considerably lu the fact that tho balls wore lost tho greater part of the time, yet it couldn't have been ping poug, because there was only one bat. Someone suggested that it was cricket, but it could not have been that, because there were not enough playerB and the "pitchers" twisted themselves out of Bhapo too much when delivering tho ball; and again. a baseball bat was used, and rogula tion league balls, so it must havo been basoball after all, but if it was, it was so successfully disguised that no fan on earth would have recogniz ed it The show was billed to run until tho crowd got tired, which was before tho performance commenced, owing to the long wait while a bat was be ing run to earth, but was called at the end of the second Inning, owing to tho lateness of tho hour aud tho fact that the printers' outflold had got lost In the shuffle and gono homo; and anyway, the score book was full, so there was no room for more orr rors to be marked up. Tho gamo throughout was an exhi bition of good intentions and bad er rors on both sides, and when the deal was called off a doop soated sigh of relief went up from the audience. Both sides claim they won, tho print ers, because they got through first, and the Wonders, because they wore last on the field, and as tho Bcoror was unable to decide tho question, both sides were satisfied to rest on their laurels. The crowd which saw the Bhow got considerable amusement out of it and seemed well satisfied; at least no one kicked for their money back ex cepting a couple of boys who had climbed over the fence. WRLU WILLI HEWS v, RKPORTS OF DAMASE TO CROPS ARE COMING IN. No Thought Damage Is Groat Ex cept In Individual Cuci Sunrfoy Closing In Full Effect for Firs Time. Waita Walla, July 28. Reports -.of damage to crops by the winds and rain of a fow days ago, keop comlag (n from the' country, whore harvest is in progress and grain is being cut. In some places it Is reported that the loss will bo heavy, especially in bar ley and early fall grain, while most of the fields of fall grain have lost some by shattering. In heavy places tho grain suffers most, and in that way tho loss will bo heavier than wsr at flrRt expected. From tho light soil sections come reports of Injury to spring grain by the continued hot weather. Heads aro being pinched at tho very top, and unless tho hot spell breaks short ly there will bo considerable loss from this source. For over a week tho days havo been vory hot and tho moisture In tho ground is not suffic ient to make up for tho unfavorable condition. It 1b safe to say that the spring grain generally will bo in jured by tho heat of the past wook, though it is impossible to say to what extent at this time. Walla Walla was a closed town yoatcrday, only hotels, restaurants, undertakers and livery Btables beltok ready for business. Tho saloons, stores and Ice cream stands were, all closed and the town wore a quiet appearance all day, despite tho ball game in tho aftorncon. This is the first time that real closing has boon ip effect, as heretofore some places have remained open to test the law or hoping that tho law would be con strued in their favor. So far as known there was no effort to evade tho law openly, and It Is not likely that fur thor trouble will be made. Fishing parties wcro in order yoB tcrday, and many families spent the day along Mill creek and In the shade of tho mountain resortB. Tho streets wore quiet, and tho usual crowds wore scarcely augmented by the fact of closed doors in tho saloons and confectionary resortB.

An attempt has Just been discovered which was intended to destroy a largo corriblnbd harvoster belonging to DrumheUor Bros., a fow days ago. Tho Drum heUor Dros., aro largo farmers or the Walla Walla valley and havo ope of the most extensive combined har vesting outfits in this section. ''A partly btirnod candle was discovered in tho cylinder among a lot of rub bish which had been placed in tt)0 machine. It is thought that the per son guilty of tho attempt to destroy the machine placed tho lighted ohort candio in tho cylinder thinking when it burned to tho stub it would ignito the rubbish and destroy tho outfit. In tho meantlmo he would bo several m.lcs away, or ho far away that he would not be located. Luckily ia draught of air extinguished tho, raaU blaze of the candio and tho machine, worth several hundored dollars, was not destroyed as intended. There Is only one theory advanced other than that it might have been Home person antagonistic to the Drumhclorti and attempting revon'go for Borne real or imaginary wrong, and that is tho possibility of it being somo one hostile to tho use of com bined machines, If this was the case tho hopo wan to destroy tho outht so the Drumbollors Would have to harvest their crop with headers and threshers and consequently more men would be employed In tho work.
