HIGH SCHOOL TEAM
AGAIN VICTORIOUS
In a fast and exciting game last
night, the high school basketball
heavers duplicated their former vic
tory over the Commercial club quin
tet, although their winning margin
was considerably smaller than in the
first game. The score at the final
whistle stood 42 to 31 and there prob- I
ably would have been less difference

rushed the business men of fthelr
feet and secured a big lead.
The first half ended with the
score 14 to 6 In the younger players
favor, while in the second half the
business men made 25 points while
their opponent annexed 28, Indicat
ing the closeness with which the sec
ond canto was marked.
The high school unquestionably has
the better team, their superior pass
ing ami basket shooting being very
noticeable last night, but the Com
mercial men showed such marked
improvement over their form in the
previous game that with a little prac
tice in the finer points of the game,
they should be ab'.e to wage a neck
and neck battle with the eastern Ore
gon champions. It Is probable that
the two teams will meet again in the
near future.
The following ls the line-up last
night:
High school. Strain and McDonald,
forwards; Fee. center; Houser and
Hampton, guards. Commercial club,
.Asbahr and Drake, forwards; Farrell,
center; Graham and Chessman,
guards.

Major's Cat Story Goes Rounds.
Major Lee Moorhouse's story boost
ing for the establishment of a cat in
dustry here is going the rounds of
papers all over the United States. Re
cently it appeared in the Bingham
ton, Xew York, Press. It will be re
membered that the major advocated
the procuring of 1,000,000 cats and
1.000.000 rats in order to start the
industry. Each cat he claims will
average ten kittens a year and cat
f.kins will sell for an average of 30
cents each. The rats, he pointed out,
will multiply four times as fast fed
on the carcasses of the dead cats, so
that the industry would be self-sustaining.
Major Moorhouse figured
that such an Industry would produce
a net profit of $9800 a day.

were touched to deep pity, it now ap
pears that this story was for the most
part fictitious and brands the boy as

the boys and girls' aid society of
Portland, returned from Pilot Rock
yesterday afternoon, he recognized
the little fellow as a Ia Grande boy
with whom he had had previous deal
ings and whose mother is still living.
This discovery lead to the acknow
ledgment by the boy that he had lied
and he explained then that he had

whipped him. He will he sent back
to La Grande and will probably be
committed to the aid society from
