The thirteen boats of the salmon I la a close tad exciting game which Ashing fleet that were out last night 'required an extra inning to decide, made the record catch of the season, the whirlwind Christian team of the bringing in 4,160 pounds ot dressed Twilight league defeated the Presby salmon that will be shipped to thejterians yesterday evening on high Portland and Sacramento markets i school field by a score of one to noth wuere u is now &emus lor uiuc icuio per pound. The boat operated by Cole & M li ner made the best catch last night, taking 5 S 5 pounds from its nets, though all of the men made satisfac - tory hauls. Another boat will com- mence fishing tonight, making a to - tal of 14. and others will likely be :nldid within the next few days. The; run of fish Is good, and the water, sMM at n hkh stase, indicates that :' it. j 'ii ,ill lie a good one right ri u ! !! J. The boats are ixper Wn in ; h'. difficulty from the snags as the men become acquainted with the river and get the bad place lo caied. The run of salmon In the Rogue ) is now lecouung ueiier, me receui high w. ter having staited the big fellows ut from the lower river In good shape, and the fishermen are having better luck, the boats that were out Friday night having brought In approximately two tons of dressed fish. The price Is also growing better, and there Is now considerable competition among the buyers. Today the union is being paid 8 1-2 cents per pound, and the market shows signs of strengthening, with the probability that nine cents will be obtained the first, of the week. The first accident to any of the boats in the fishing fleet occurred Friday morning when W. C. Deans & Son lost their boat and their night's catch by getting on the rocks In swift water. The net had become entangled In a snag, and in attempt ing to release It the twenty-foot boat was caught on a rock broadside to the current, and was crushed like an egg Bhell. Mr. Cearss was washed under the boat and had to swim for shore, having a hard struggle In the current loaded as he was with high rtibber boots. Young Bearss landed on the rock, and made shore with out difficulty. The catch of salmon, eighteen fish weighing in the neigh borhood of 300 pounds, was lost, though the net was later brought In by another boat. Saturday the fishermen In camp near the fish warehouse all turned in to assist the Dearsses in the con struction of another boat to take the place of the one lost, and the new craft was completed In a single day, and the fleet is again complete. Fifteen boats are now fishing un der union colors, giving employment directly to thirty men In the boats. Employment is also given to 14 men and teams to haul the boats and their catch back to town after the night's drift, $4 being paid to each team that makes the tlrp. The boats drift down in the course of the night to ward the mouth of Jump-Off-Joe creek, where they are met by the wagons, the boats loaded on, and the drive made back to town and tho flsh warehouse. The catch of royal cht nooks and the two tired and sleepy fishermen occupy the boat on wheels, and the men gain needed sleep as the road to town Is traveled. At the fish warehouse, the catch Is turned over to Manager II. E. Gething, where It is handled In an absolutely sanitary manner, and Is placed in the cement cooling room for Icing and packing. Uniform pack ing boxes, each holding about 150 pounds of fish, are provided, brands on the side of the box announcing that It contains Rogue river salmon shipped by the Rogue River Fisher men's union of Grants Pass. These boxes properly iced go forward by express to fill the various orders, the demand being much larger than the supply. For so early In the season the run is considered good, and with the water at a much higher stage than is usual at the date, a prolonged sea son is anticipated. Igal fishing ( loses August 1st, July ordinarily be ing the best, month of the year with the heaviest run of salmon. Lat'-r than July th fish in the upper river are spawning, and many of t hem are unfit for food.

PRF.SIIVTF.IUAXS' FIRST DEFEAT OF SEASON'. ing. It was the first Presbyterian defeat of. the season. The Christians sprung a surprise by sending Claude Trimble to the pitcher's box, and he easily held his (own with Hamilton, the Knoxonlan, star. Trimble and Hamilton each fanned nine, Trimble walked tw0 and Catcher Parker developed a few but ter lingers in the sixth. Hamilton one, and each allowed two hits. Olevlns and Trimble garnered the Christian bingles, while Hood and Frye were the only Chauvinists to Bwat safely. These stray and scattered hits, however, had nothing to do with the lone run of the con test. Here Is the story of Hamilton's un deserved downfall. In the last half of the sixth he struck out Teel; he also fanned Bratton, but Catcher Parker dropped the ball and, after recovering, his Inaccurate throw to first pulled Woodward off the base, and Dratton was safe by a hair; Urat ton stole second; Hamilton . then fanned Trimble, the ball again get ting by Parker, but this time he could not regain It In time for a peg to first. With Earl Smith at bat. Trimble started for second. Parker's proper play would have been to permit Trimble's theft, or else make a short throw to the shortstop to possibly Inveigle Bratton Into leaving third. Slugger WoodnarU'w batting slump continiief). Instead the young catcher heaved, and heaved somewhat wildly to sec ond, and Bratton raced home. Thus the spectators beheld the un usual spectacle of a pitcher fanning three men In succession In one Inning, yet losing his game thereby. Launer and Bratton and. N. Best and Stlnebaugh executed double plays. The weak hitting In the, twilight league this season Is causing many persons to vonder whether the pitch ers are a burch of Mathewsons, John sons or Wal ihes, or If th batsmen are a collection of aged washerwomen and denizens of some home for crip ples come to Josephine county for a furlough.

Comparative Digestibility of Food Made with different Baking Powders From a Series of Elaborate Chemical Tests: An equal quantity of bread (biscuit) was made with each of three different kinds of baking powder cream of tartar, phosphate, and alum and submitted separately to the action of the digestive fluid, each for the same length of time. The relative percentage of the food digested is shown as follows: Bread made with Royal Cream of Tartar Powder: 100 Per Cent Digested Bread made with phosphate powder: HiVi Per Cent Digested Bread made with alum powder: 671 Per Cent These tests, which are absolutely reliable and unprejudiced, make plain a fact of great importance to everyone : Food raised with Royal, a cream of tartar Baking Powder, is shown to be entirely diges tible, while the alum and phosphate powders are found to largely retard the digestion of the food made from them. Undigested food is not only wasted food, but it is the source of very many bodily ailments. (OXVICriOX OF CIIIX.AMAX AFFIRMED 1IV COURT. Washington, Juno 9.
