C. T, Company's new boat, tho Grahamona, Is a beauty, as the nearly 200 excursionists who yester day accepted the company's Invitation to take a ride down the river on her Sunday, will one and all testify. It was a rather dreary morning, heavy fog and rather cold, and besides, Sa lem folks have a habit of not getting outside of their breakfasts Sunday morning early enough to get anywhere bofore 9 o'clock, but In spite of this combination, nearly 200 took the trip down as far as Lincoln, which was i cached at 9:fi0, Soon after starting back tho fog lilted, and the return trip was delightful, tho Btaunch little steamer going past the city on her re turn, and a couple of miles up tho river. The Grahamona Is the finest of the company's boats, Is thoroughly equip ped, splendidly furnished and his plen ty of power to negotiate any rapid or current of the Willamette. She is 150 feet over all, SO feet beam and 18-inch draft, light. She is per mitted to carry 308 passengers, and on excursions 412, and her big cabins can accommodate them, too. All who enjoyed the company's hos pitality yesterday will long remember the trip, as one of tho delightful little unexpected things that brighten life And warm us up toward our neighbors and townsmen. There are hundreds of Salemltes who have never taken the trip by boat to Portland, but It is safe to say that some on the excursion yesterday made up their minds to do so, and among them was the writer. Every Salemlte should know something of the. river, Its possibilities and the country tribu tary to it, and the only way to get this knowledge Is to make a few trips over It and thus see and realize the Impor tance of the river to Salem's trade. WILLAMETTE TEAMS ARE ROTH WIXXERS Willamette university football team went to Forest Grove Saturday, where they defeated the Pacific university by a score of 40 to 0. The score about represents the relative strength of the two teams, although Willamette was not at its best by a good deal. Shaver, for the Pacifies, was good at punting, but the whole game was monotonous and uninteresting. Shaver made sev eral substantial gains for his team. The center of .Pacific's team was strong, but the ends were weak, and It was here the 'varsity made their at tacks. Willamette's second team played a game with the Independence high school team at that phce Saturday which proved to bo very close, The score was 7 to 0 In favor of Willam ette, and It was rare good luck that tue 'varsity scored a victory, as the Independence boys were in the tfame all the time. Tin Wil!amettc3 made their only touchdown In tho fi.'st half of the game, and In the i-econd half the locals came bncn with sucli force that it looked as if they would score. On the whole It wail a thoroughly good game.
