If it sets no worse wo hnvo no social complaint, ror wo nro better off, comparatively-,- thin most mills." Tho cars shipped last week went to widely separated markets, their destinations being In Chicago. Iowa, Salt Lake .City, Ohio, Oregon. Mis souri and ono for the extreme oast.

RASEBALLJHIS SUNDAY Pi'liietille Defcali'd Itcml Team I.nt H'rck Tcthcroiv Was ti Stronjf. ..... . . , llond will play Prinevllle Iwso hall this Hunday at t i. m. on -- tho old ball field at the south --- end of Bond street. It Is hoped that a big crowd will turn out to -- support the homo team. - - -- Ilend won. That Is, In the base ball game nt Prinevllle Sunday the score stood Ilend one; Just a matter or spelling, you see. Tho Prlnovll llan's scorn was considerably more than one, for tho facts of Uie case are that thoy trimmed the looal team quite badly In tho first game tho Bend boys havo played. Tho trouhlo was mostly that Prine vllle' pitcher outclassed Bend's. Prinevllle had annexed tho popular Tetherow of Redmond for the occa sion. "Slim" Btants for Bend did Ms best, but was not tho equal or his opponent. However, the boys field ed well and garnered a nlco bunch of hits from Tetherow, although tho flno support of his teammates kept the scorer from having much to do. Tho boys are going after thotr practlco hard, and another pitcher Is to bo secured. With tho box work strengthened, Bend will have a very creditable team, and Manager Joe McKay expects it to show up well In tho next contest. The Infield Is snappy and a lot of good bitters are bobbing up. Tho players Sunday were-Bend-j-Van Matro c. Staats p, Steldl IK McKay 2b, Staats ss. Stover 3b, Paul rr. Hawk el. Hunter If.
