PENDLETON TEAM GOES
TO THAT CITY TOMORROW,
Nearly Every Member of the Pendle
ton Team Is a Local Man Lortmer
Will Pltdi, and He Is the Center of
Great Expectation Manager Fra
iler Is Very Hopeful ad to the Re
sultExcursion Train Leaves Here
at 9 In the Morning.
Tomorrow the ball team will go to
Walla Walla for the purpose of once
more crossing bats with the Garden
City players, and hopes .are high that
this time the score will show favora
ble to Pendleton.
In the game tomorrow Lorlmer, the
hero of the Oldtlmers, and one of the
best plthcers seen in any of the
games this year, will be in the box
for Pendleton. This fact alone signi
fies much to many who have seen
Lorlmer play, and his friends are
looking for htm to give a good ac
count of himself tomorrow. In both
the local games played here Lorlmer
showed up well, and It is Manager
Frazlers opinion that he will prove
the best twirler the team has had this
year.
Practically the entire team tomor
row will be composed of local players.
Collins will catch; Harrlty Is schedul
ed for first base; Alexander for sec
ond. Kehm for third, Graves for short
stop, King left field, Lieuallen center
field, Leonard right field, and Hoover
substitute. In view of the local line
up the work of the team will be fol
lowed with more Interest, and there Is
little doubt but that a goodly crowd
will go on the excursion.
"I believe we really have the best
line-up yet this year and that we will
win tomorrow. Last night the team
had a good practice and all of the
boys showed up well," declared Mana
ger L. O. Frailer this morning, and If
the score Is not favorable to Pendleton
one of the most disappointed will be
the manager himself.
As usual, the excursion train will
leave here at o'clock and will return
home In the evening.

SUES FOR DAMAGE TO SHEEP.
Wright firing Action Against Great
Northern.
Delay in furnlbhlng cars for sheep
and in carrying them from Cut Bank,
Mont., to Seattle, is the principal
cause of action In a suit brought by
James H. Wright of Yakima against
the Great Northern Railway com
pany for $5200 damages and (385
paid ou a bill Incurred . while the
sheep were In transit, says the Yaki
ma Republic. The suit will be tried
at the coming session of the United
States court, which convenes here
June 11.
In the complaint it is set forth that
on December 1?, 190, the plaintiff
WALLA
WALL A
ordered cars for the shipment of 2,
600 head of tut sheep at Cut Bank,
Mont., and was assured by the de
fendant that 26 cars would be fur
nished him within three days. Plain
tiff thereupon caused the sheep to be
brought to Cut Hank for shipment,
hut the cars were not furnished until
JaJnuary S. For 26 days the sheep
were held at the station awaiting the
cirs promises from day to day and
on Jnuuary 3 they were ' loaded on
the cars and consigned to Seattle.
The plaintiff alleges that they were
In transit between Cut Bank and
Spokane 46 hours, and that they were
In cars In which no proper provision
was made for the. animals to eat,
drlnlc or rest, ami that during all of
that time, ml for a period greater
than 28 hours set by the statute, the
sheep were not unloaded or given rest
or food. As e result of this the plain
tiff says that the sheep became run
down and seven of them died.
It is further alleged that the sheep
were kept at Spokane, through the
carelessness and negligence of the de
fendant, for six days before being
forwarded to Seattle, and that dur
ing that time a feed bill was Incur
red amounting to $386 which plain
tiff was compelled to pay before he
could get possession of his sheep. The
amount was paid under protest.
CONRAD PLATZOEDER, BREWER.
Going Into Business With. Harry Reed
at Calgary.
The following story from the Morn
ing Albertan will he of interest to those
wno know Conrad Platzoeder, former
butcher and king of the Eagles in
this city. It Is understood that Harry
Reed, former potato king of Umatilla
county, is to be associated with Mr.
Platzoeder In his monster enterprise.
The Alberta paper says:
The new brewery to which reference
was made yesterday, will be a big
Calgary enterprise. The gentleman
who is managing the new enterprise
is Conrad Platzoeder, a gentleman
with a great amount of experience of
every kind needed in a matter of this
k'ml.
Work has already been begun in this
matter, and the spur has already
reached the site of the new enterprise.
It is expected that beer will be pro
duced within a few months, possibly
three months, and that within one
year 200 men will be working upon
the new Industry.
Mr. Platzoeder has associated with
him a German brewer from Munich,
who also has had experience In Mil
waukee, and who la an authority up
on the manufacture of good beer.
The site upon which the new brew
ery is located Is the McDonald sub
division. This Important property
was put through by the Bow Valley
Land company.

TWO STEEL BRIDGES
ONE ACROSS M'KAY, OTHER
ACROSS THE WALLA WALLA.
The Former Will Be Erected Proba.
. My at the Ely Crossing, Where the
Old Bridge Stood Residents of
Neighborhood Will Do the Filling-
County Court Thoroughly Convert
ed to the System of Holding Month
ly Sessions, as It Expedites Busi
ness. At last after much Investigation, it
has been decided by the county court
to construct a steel bridge across Mc
Kay creek at the Ely crossing, where
the former bridge stood. The matter
of locating this bridge was left to
County Judge Gllllland, and this after
noon that official stated that he had
found the sentiment to be almost
unanimously In favor of the Ely lo
cation. Consequently, the bridge will
be built there If at all. As a bridge Is
absolutely necessary there Is little
doubt but that the people of that vi
cinity will soon have a bridge. Resi
dents of the community have agreed
to do the necessary filling work.
New Bridge at Milton.
ABlde from the action regarding the
McKay creek bridge the court has
also decided to replace the old Miller
bridge across the Walla Walla river at
Milton with a steel structure. Bids
for the construction of the new bridge
will be asked for shortly. Like the
McKay creek bridge, the one at Milton
will have a 100-foot span. The pres
ent bridge has become so worn that It
Is regarded as unfit for traffic.
Like Monthly Sessions.
After having been In session but
four days the court has practically
completed all Its work for this
month. On Monday the boundary
board will meet and on Tuesday the
commissioners will make a trip south
ward for the purpose of viewing the
Waldon and Buholtz roads, leading
from Vinson to this place. Following
that trip the court will then close up
the business of the month.
That the new method of meeting
monthly Is much better for all con
cerned Is declared by Judge Gllllland.
Under the new system bills are settled
more promptly and In general quicker
action Is gotten upon all business com
ing before the court.

COYOTES ATE UP THE
RAW HIDE TRACK
Tacoina News Tells New Story of Dr.
Baker's Pioneer Railroad In tlte
Walla Walla Valley Strap of Cow
hide 10 Miles Long Was) Used as
Ralls When, It Was First BuUt.
Many amusing anecdotes, regard
ing Dr. Baker's rawhide railroad ope
rated between Walla Walla and Wal
lula In the early days have been told,
but it Is for the Tacoma News to
spring a new one, which will prove
Interesting to many pioneers who re
member the famous railroad and the
difficulties under which It was con
structed and operated by Dr. Baker.
The News' story Is as follows:
Recent railroad developments in
Washington have recalled to the
minds of the old-timers many enter-,
talntng anecdotes concerning the first
railroads In the state. One of the
most Interesting of these Is an ac
count of the building of what is now
the Oregon Railroad & Navigation
company's line In this state.
The company which built the road
was incorporated In 1868 and the line
was in operation between Wallula
and Walla Walla in 1813. The first
10 miles of the road was built entire
ly of wood, fir stringers 4x6 being
used for rails. Later a piece of strap
Iron was put on the face of the
stringer and a few years after a 26-
pound rail was laid the entire dU
tance.
The road was built by S. D. Baker
and was a money maker from the
start. A rate of 14.60 a ton. was
charged for carrying freight the dis
tance of 31 miles. The little enslne
that hauled the half dozen cars over
tho line was capable of making only
10 miles an hour. Part of the coun
try between Walla Walla and Wal
lula was devoted to raising cattle
B'or fear some of the cattle should
get cn the track and be run over and
cause damage suits, Mr. Baker
bought half a dozen shepherd dogs,
which were sent ahead of the "fast
freight" to keep the cattle off the
right of way.
Before the strap-Iron was put on
the stringers, Mr. Baker tried the ex
periment of putting down a strip of
cowhide. The country was ransacked
for hides and a strip 10 miles long
was nailed on each of the stringers.
The experiment uppcared to be work
ing, all right until the following win
ter, which was unusually severe. The
cold weather and scarcity of food
drove the coyotes out Into the clear
ings along the railroad. The cow
hide on the rails smelled good to the
famished varmints and they proceed
ed to eat up Mr. Baker's railroad.'
Mr. Baker's road was turned over
to the Oregon Railroad & Navigation
company In 1882 and changed to a
standard guage road' to handle the
heavy traffic that had developed along
the line. The road wus completed
from Portland to Spokane In 1889.
