Shortstop Smith Distin

The Oregon Agricultural College
team yesterday awoke to redeem it
self, after being defeated three straight
games by the Canadians, upon their
own grounds, and they gave the Re
ginas a good sound walloping before
a iarge crowd at the athletic park yes
terday afternoon by a score of 8 to 4.
'1 he college boys found no difficulty
in hitting .Manager Hulens pitchers
this time and ill this ability rests large
ly the verdict of the game. McMil
lan, the college southpaw, pitched a
one-hit game, and Jewett secured this
for Kegina in the eighth inning. How
ever, McMillan was a little off on the
control, walking nine men and his
wilduess threatened to get him into
trouble at certain stages of the game.
It looked very serious at different
times for Coach Garrett's men but
they managed to pull out of several
bad situations. Kegina died at the hat
several innings with the bases full.
The Canadians filled the bases in
both the third and sixth innings but
"the fast playing of the Collegians cut
off runs and perfected a few put outs
at first. Kegina scored one run in the
seventh on two errors ami two passed
balls and three more in the eighth
on three walks, an error and Jcwett's
hit.
Coach Garrett's men hit opportune
ly and batted the Kegina pitchers hard
when they had men on bases. They
scored one in the fourth, two in the
fifth, three in. the sixth and two in
the eighth.
In four times up Wellcr, the O. A.
C. catcher, secured three splendid hits,
lie also drove out a two bagger for
which he did not get credit for he
was put out for cutting first base.
The Aggies short stop Smith, handl
ed some splendid chances and playcjd
a star game throughout the contest.

settlers there. In 1846 he started out
on foot and by boat for the western

1850 with others he got the gold fe
ver and started for California, but
changed his course and came to the
Willamette Valley, remaining during
the winter and going to California
the next year. Later he went back
to Iowa by way of Panama and New
York City. In 1853 he moved with
his family to Missouri, wdiere he re
sided until 1866, when he again came
to Oregon, over the plains, settling
about eight miles east of Lebanon,
where he resided until 1893. He later
sold his farm and moved to Lebanon,
and then to Albany, where he resided
for some time with his granddaugh
ter. Mrs. 1". C. Pate. He was sheriff
of the county from 1SS4 until 1886,
serving the county efficiently. He
was also county commissioner.
In politics he was a Democrat, Juck
soin'an in character, in religion a Bap
tist, ami a faithful member of the
church for many vears.
Mrs. Charlton died in 1893. Mr.
and Mrs. Charlton were the parents
of five children, Andrew. Henrv. Mrs.
Martin, mother of Mrs. Pate. Charles
and James, only two of whom are
living, Henry of Umatilla county and
Charles of Towcll Butte, Crook coun
ty. James Charlton had a distinguish
ed career. Graduating from Albany
College he went through Princeton
University with a high standard, then
through Columbia law school, and
then practicing for several years in
