In the sixth he grabbed O'Brien's low line drive, throwing to Shockley, who threw to Collins, com- pletfpg a triple and retiring the side. Conrad had his hand badly hurt in Wednesdays game by a tip foul and yesterday Baker went behind the bat, where he did fine work and with a little more experience will make a fine back atop. Taliaferro pitched a good game and will be with the team- as one of the regular pitchers. . Van Houten can certainly clout the ball, getting five hits out of eight times up In the two games. Pendleton has a bunch of hitters with the 1908 team and they will break up many a game before the sea son closes. La Grande has shown great Im provement since they played here and now has a strong lineup. Manager Lorlmer should be con gratulated for his untiring efforts to land a good team for Pendleton. He has the confidence of every one of his players. - ' i Tf Now for the Walla Walla game Sunday on the Pendleton grounds.

From New Zealand comes the follow ing; weird yarn: "The tobunga (native magician) waa even credited with the power, of In fluencing the dead. The present writer was a witness of the following Inci dent: A branch of the Arawas, the tribe of tuu dlHtrlct of Rotorua, being at war, bad suffered defeat, and one of their braves had-been brought home dead. The vanquished sought at once to find out by some omen connected with the dead chief whether they would lie successful In their next en counter. The tohungu was requested to procure the desired omen, the peo ple squatting In a ring about the bier. Advancing a few paces from the dead body, the priest began to recite a powerful Incantation, intent on mak ing the deceased give some sign, the eyes of all present being fixed on the slain warrior. Presently the corpse waa observed to move slightly to one aide, on which a great cry of Joy rose from the people. The movement waa interpreted as a sign of future victory. This feat was often performed by the tobunga of olden times." Chicago Newa. Personal.

Sharon Eddings Phone Main 32. 523 Main Street t Will Probably Do Inatmrtcd for Sop. rotary Tart. Washington. May 2. Two delegates to represent the republicans of Alas ka In the Chicago convention will be elected nt a territorial convention .to be held at Ketchikan today. Advices from the land of snow and gold state that the delegation will probably be pledged to Secretary Taft. Six delegates had already been elected when the republican national committee met In Washington last December, but by the terms of tthe call they were declared to have been prematurely chosen, and Alaska was told that no delegate from that ter ritory would be seated at the conven tion until others were named. The call further stipulated that only two would be seated Instead of six. As the six delegates had been In Instructed to vote for Secretary Toft their rejection was received with Jub ilation by the exponents of the secre tary, who saw a loss of four votes to him and the possibility that Alaska could not elect her allotted two dele gates In time to be represented at the convention. They realized that an election in Alaska la a much differ ent and more difficult matter than a short walk to the polls In the United States, and some hope was expressed that having once gone on record, the Alaskans would be content to forgo another election. But In this hope they did not reckon with the deter mination of the Alaskans to exercise their rights of ballot and the caliber of Thomas Cale, the territorial dele gate In congress, who holds strong views as to the Interest his people should take In national politics. Mr. Cale believes that the Alaskans prize the right of ballot more highly than any other Americans and that the two new delegates will be Instruct ed for Secretary Taft unless a light vote somewhat changes the situation. Mr. Cale Is a Vermonter by birth, but has lived in . Alaska 10 years and Is serving his first term la congress. He was elected on a non-partisan ticket, although he is more closely allied with the republicans than the demo crats, and Is listed in the former cov umn. The Chicago City Railway company has paid to the city $863,349. this be ing 55 per cent of the earnings of the lines during the last year, the percent age due the city under the new franchise.
