PL WINS WILSON CAITURES BAD CHECK ARTIST Man Wanted at Waltsburg Taken by Local Deputy Slierlff. T. B. Newton, wanted at Walts burg, Wash., on the charge of passing bogus checks, was arrested here Inst evening by Deputy Sheriff Bert Wilson and taken to Walla Walla on the nooi train by Sheriff Havlland. . Wilson was given a telephone de scription of the man wanted, a few minutes before the train from Walla Walla was due to arrive and it Is partly due to his sprinting ability as well as his ability to spot a man with a slight description, that enabled him to make the capture. Newton Is a young man, well dress ed and of good appearance. He had several bogus checks In his possession when searched and it. is believed he exchanged some of the worthless pa per for good coin of the realm in Walla Walla as well as Waitsburg, though none has been reported as yet.

There was everything yesterday that the most critical fan could wish for. Brilliant plays, tight holes, pretty steals, clean hits and little ragging. In short, while thore were several er rors, some of which were due to the gale and the clouds of dust which swept across the diamond, It was near ly an ideal game. The real sensation came In the last half of the ninth, however. Two men were down and two men on bases when Conrad, the doughty first base man, came to bat and picked out the first ball that came over, swatting the horsehlde sphere fair on the nose and sent thurtllng through the air far and away over the left fielder's head, scoring the winning run and an extra one for good measure. Tennis Strike Thrfr Pace. Like Sunday's contest, the game from the start was the real thing and It would seem that both teams have struck their gate and will play good tall for the rest of the season. It was no disgrace to lose such a contt as yesterday's and there is all the more glory to win. Pendleton took the lead In the very beginning by' registering one run In the first canto. But while they were ahead, La Grande came so dangerous ly near scoring on several occasions ns to keep the fans up in the air and everybody playing all the time. In the sixth was when things looked the brightest for the visitors, when with nobody down, the bases were filled. Aubln rose to the occasion, however, and accept for the low ball which Boewer was unable to stop in time to prevent the one run, there was nothing doing. The score was then tied and In the seventh Baker added another, placing them one to the good. When the locals came, to bat they evened things up and when neither side was able to score In the eighth the crowd began to whisper of extra innings. Baker failed to do anything in their half of the last and though Pendleton succeeded In getting her first two men up on the bases, the next two went out and it remained for Conrad to fV" the trick which won the game.

Owing to the fact that the saloon are to go out of business on July 1, about 40 telephones have been order ed out at that time. When Eugene wen.t "dry" two years ago 90 tele phones were taken out, but within sit weeks the company had gained back that number and wjthin two months over 120 new phones had been in stalled In Eugene. So Manager Mars ton' is not alarmed at the prospect and expects to gain back more 'phones than are lost within a few months af ter prohibition goes Into effect. Owns California Fruit Tract. J. M.
