Nunn yesterday morning announced the accidental death of Mr. Reuben Hall, an old time pioneer of the Buena Vista neighborhood. We were unable to get full particulars of his death yesterday, but it seems that he, in company with another man, was falling trees across the river from Buena Vista, when in some manner a tree fell on him causing nearly instant death. Reuben Hall was born in 1846 and was the son of Mr. and Mrs. It. P. Hall, honored pioneers of Polk county. Our article of last week regarding the hard ships suffered by a pioneer party who wintered that year near Oakland, in Southern Oregon, will be remembered. We understand today that the Hall familv was of the party, and as lar as Mr. E. N. Hall can recollect, Reuben Hall first law the light of day in that, the first cabin ever built in Oregon south of the Willamette Valley. As we stated, the party came on here and his J. L.

Body, Make You III, Languid and Depressed. Sick kidneys weaken the body through the continual drainage of life giving al bumen from the blood into the urine and the substitution of poisonous uric acid that goes broadcast through the system, sowing the seeds of disease.

Judging from the past performances of the Shenandoah five, the game with them was expected to be a hard one. A loss of four games out of 83 was the record claimed. It took but a few minutes to size up the locals and to see that defeat was to be their part of the struggle. The long passes used by the losers many times were gathered in by hands for which they w’ere not intend ed, while the short, snappy passing of the visitors could not be broken up with any degree of satisfaction as basket after basket was tossed through its use. The first half ended 18 to 4. The game was clean, only seven fouls being called on the Oregons and five on their oppon ents.

A court about 22 feet w’ ide, but of fair length, better pro|>ortioned for a howling alley than a basketball court.

Malvern led off by scoring a neat basket, but her lead was short lived for the Oregon machine was soon* in full swing and turning out baskets at a lively clip. Several times during the contest after defeat was cer tain, the slick spots seemed to furnish the chief delight to the spectators as the men rolled or sat on the floor as a result of said spots.

Mr. Robert Harmon was in last night to tell us that the Dallas baseball team is now a certainty and that work has al ready been commenced on the park. Himself, two of the Barham boys and Mr. Doty have been at work all day and put in some forty posts for the fence. The lumber is being delivered on the grounds as rapidly as possible, and the fences will he ready for the igns by Monday. Mr. Harmon de sires that the merchants desiring space will have their copy ready by that date so that matters may be rushed as quick ly as possible. Norval C. Hayes, the man who painted the famous Bull Dur ham signs, and noted as a nainter the world over, has been secured to do the work, and he will \m here Monday to commence it. By his engagement the boys have secured work done at eastern prices instead of those of Portland sign painters, which amounts to a saving of a bout$6 on the sign. It was desired to secure 20 signs for the fence, but as this could not be done, only 10 having yet l»eeii engaged, the boys will saye $100 on this work. They now' have promis ed $325, which leaves them yet shy $75. This they hope to raise by subscriptions or more signs, and as soon as they have done so will proceed to order their suits with Dallas in large letters across the breast. Mr. Harmon is greatly sur prised at the impetus given the move ment by our people, and promises them in return a crack baseball team—sure inner« against anything that can In* brought here. The work on the grand stand will be commenced al>out the middle of next week and pushed to com pletion as ranidly as possible. A cou ple of weeks from now sealed bids will be receivable for refreshment privileges at the grounds. Mr. Harmon goes to Corvallis tomorrow, but will lie back next day. It will not be long until the team begins to practice, and then you will see everybody begin to get interest ed. Tracy Stoats l»ought today the Wm. Fanil residence property on Court and Lev¿ns streets for $2000. Mr. Stoats will take possession in the near future, Mr. and Mrs. Fault now packing up to leave for their new home in Portland. Mr. T. D. Phillip* engineered the buy. The sheriff’s office has been crowded with taxpayers this week taking advan tage of tne 3 per cent reduction. Asa Robinson, of Independence, and Willis Simon ton, of Dallas, are assisting the regular force in keeping up with the business. The amounts charged 1° each individual are considerably higher than that of last year, yet there is no partic ular kicking being done, as the taxpay ers realise that an increased tax is made necessary by the improvements desired and are paying up willingly. Oregons 22; Shenandoah 10. Notwithstanding their first defeat, the Shenandoah quintet came back full of determination for the second game. Although they could not win, they fought stubbornly from the start to finish. Fenton and Teats, for the first time on the tour, worked together at forward and the latter seemed still to have his old time form for team play and fine passing. Shenandoah opened the game by scoring first and working rd, but soon fell into second place there to remain. Summary: Field goals: C. Maranville 1, Evertt (center) 1, Johnson (guard) 2. Fenton 2, Teats 5, E. Shaw 5, C. Shaw 2; Foul baskets, B Maranville 1, Johnson 1, Fenton 4. Oregons 37; Kansas City, A. C. 23. From Iowa the tour now turned to ward the south for the only game in Missouri, in Kansas City. The Athlet ics are an aggregation of considerable reputation and bad lost no games during the present season. After some delay due to two preliminaries, etc., the game began. Without further cere mony the Oregons began to dump the hall through the net and at the same time kept a careful eye on the lankey K. C. goal trousers. Apparently dis liking to see his men so closely guarded, the umpire kept his whistle blowing on very small pretexts. Out of 12 points made the first half, 10 of the local iH)ints were made on fouls, while six baskets from the field and five from the foul line were made by Dallas. With a five-point lead the tourists went into the second half determined to keep it and if possible increase it. Every man was playing carefully and between the constant whistle blowing, Fenton and Reed added two more field goals each to their team score. One of the local papers said in part, “ The Oregon team should be given credit also for playing great basketball. Their team work was excellent and several of the men showed skill in throwing baskets.” The score: Field goals, Minton (guard) 2, Fenton 3, Reed 5, E. Shaw 2 ; Fouls, Kansas City 19 in 35, Reed 17 in 28. Our Small College Team Make* Good Showing. The game of basketball last night between the college team and the famous Los Angeles team was not greet ed by a large house for the reason that our team being so much smaller in weight there was no comparison. The average weight of our team is 120 pounds and that of Los Angeles 160. As it was, our bovs exceeded expecta tions by long odds, in fact were in the lead until after the first 5 minutes of the second half. The Dallas boys all played fine ball and Fred Boydston was a star at throwing fouls, securing 7 out of 9 tries the first half. Lew Ballan tyne was not able to play and Wm. Boydston took his place and played a fine game. The game was fast and exciting, many spectacular plays being pulled off. Three baskets were shot from near the center of tlie court. The final score stood 17 to 27. Mr. Hahn acted as referee and Mr. Kersey acted as umpire.
