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.

One of those thrillers which the de
voted fans are always praying for and
so seldom getting, was pulled off yes
terday at the Matlock grounds between
the baseball teams of Pendleton and
Baker City, the victory remaining with
the locals by a score of 3 to 2.
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.

Many 'Pltones Are Out.
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.
