Hood Kiver Wins, 12 to 9.
Five hundred people watched the

the home team defeat The Dalles boys
by a 12 to 9 score. Most of the tickets
were Bold and the receipts amounted to
about $75. The excursion from The
Dalles brought lo visitors.

three runs the first inning. It was a
-oose egg for Hood Kiver ana ine
alles piled up three more to their
score. The visitors were wna iron ae
light and the rooters howled. The
Dalles got two more. Hood River was
furious. The team pulled together in
a bunch and landed five runs.
About this time someone got mad ana
everything became tangled up. Coats
were pulled ana ou men nisneu onto uie
diamond. Cooler council prevailed and
order was restored. The visitors made
but one more score. Hood Kivor crossed

busy sewing hallocks and nailing up crates. Come
examine our work, and be convinced that the
mites are the best ever sold in Hood River. The
material is all spruce. You can't find neater or
stronger berry crates anywhere. The hallocks are
cut with a V-score, making the firmest hallocks
manufactured.
The crates are now ready to haul out. During
the shipping season there will be plenty of crates
at niv warehouse on the railroad track.
