PORT TOWNSEND DAY.
Willie Lsnge's Admirers Out in Force
Local Baseball Gossip.

Willie Lange's Admirers Out in Force
Local Baseball Gossip.
If the rainfall does not prevent the
Seattle and Spokane clubs will meet again
this afternoon. 1t is Port Townsend day
and big crowd of enthusiasts will be
down on the steamer Hermosa to witness
the game. The chief magnet is Willie
Lange, Seattle's clever young catcher. who
for two seasons and part of third was
the bright particular star of the Port
Townsend colts. If the grounds are in
anything like condition the game will be
played. McGinnis or Dunning will do the
pitching for Seattle and Reccius or Klopf
for Spokane.
On account of the wet grounds at Madi-
son street park no attempt was made yes
terday to play off the game postponed
from Thursday. 1t will probably be
played on Monday.
Dummy" Ryn is disconsolate over his
batting average. Although he is hitting
the bail regularly he has been able to get
in but three safe hits in the eight games in
which he has played. The big mute, how
ever, takes great deal of satisfaction in
the fact that Danny Minnehan, who has
played with him for the past two seasons,

credit.
Manager Powell makes an entire change
in his batting order when his team goes up
against a left-handed pitcher On such
occasions he sends his right-handed bats
men, who can bat southpaw pitching as
well as any other kind, to the plate first.
Last Wednesday when Sowders was in the
box for Spokane Gil Hatfield led off, fol-
lowed by Lange and Minnehan. On all
other days Tommy Hernon bats first and
Powell second.
Andy Dunning is fond of work. Yes
terday afternoon he was out at the park by
himself practising his pitching. He is
using terrific speed and has fine rise ball.
The Seattle teams batting order will be
quite different today from what it was on
Wednesday.
The Portlands will not appear in Seattle
until May 49,
Thursday has been regularly established
as ladies' day at the Madison street park
throughout the season. If a game is
played next Moday that day will be ladies'
day in lieu of the game that should have
been played Thursday. Today ladies will
have to pay admission.

A REroRT FROM EpMoNps.
Citizens Deny Statements in Regard to
the Greyhound.

The communication published in yester-
days Posr-iNrELLIGENcER, containing a
complaint that the steamer Greyhound
frequently failed to call at Edmonds, has
evoked the following reply from the Ed
monds members of the Snohomish county
Board Of Trade:
EDMoNDs. WASH, April %, 1892
To THE EDITOR: The letter published in your
valuable paper of this mornings issue, headed
"A Kick From Edmonds," is not only false
statement. but an imposition upon the citizens
oil Edmonds. Ii this town is under obligations
TO any boat on the Sound, it is certainly to the
steamer Greyhound end its gentlemanly ofiicsrs.
1t is alao a falsehood that a movement is on
foot to reduce the railroad fare from here to
Seattle, as the citizens care but little whether
the fare is reduced or not, the depot is too far
from town, being outside the city limits
The gentleman that wrote this slanderous
article is known here, and is not even a resident
OF this county. to say nothing of being citizen
OF this town.
The Greyhound is an Edmonds boat and will
continue to make her regular stops, regardless
of outside cranks and kIckers
We, the undersigned citizens of Edmonds ask
that this be published in answer to the letter
headed "a Kick from Edmonds," in this morn
ing's issue. Respectfully,

How Raum Tried to Entrap Cooper
Senator sguire's Work ON the
immigration Committee.

WAsHrxGroS CITY, April 29.-In the
House this morning the speaker called at
tention to the fact that at the time of adj
;ournment yesterday the sergeant-at-arms
vas given warrants for the arrest of abb
,entee members, and called on that off,
rial for a report. He said that nineteen
warrants had been placed in his hands.
Seven of the members he had been unable
70 find, and the other twelve had promised
tobe here this morning. The speaker
then stated that this action in allowing
members to give their parole to appear
vss in accordance with his instructions to
the sergeant-at-arms. The delinquent
members were then summoned to the bar
of the House to present excuses. Bowers
Of California appeared first. He said his
chief offense consisted in being caught.
He went home yesterday to answer letters

else appointed postmaster. He had no
intention of breaking the rules of

cuse Bowers was made, but many.
believing that the arrest of members for
neglect of duty was not mere childs play,
demanded the yeas and nays. Before the
!, vote was announced the point of order
was made that the members under arrest
had no right to vote. After considerable
sparring between the Republicans and
Democrats, the speaker overruled the
point of order, on the ground that he had
no right to order members names elimi-
mated from the roll. Bowers was excused,
100 to IS. The remainder of the delin-
quents we're then excused on more or less
frivolous grounds, and after touching some
unimportant matters the House went into
committee of the whole on the private
calendar.
The Sibley tent bill was laid aside with
favorable recommendation, after an
amendment referring the claim to the
court of claims for adjudication. The
Hiram Johnson bill occupied the re-
mainder of the session. Without action
the committee rose, and the House, with
out disposing of the Sibley bill, took a re-
cess until o'clock this evening.
The House did nothing at the evening
session.
representative Bailey of Texas has in
troduced an amendment to the rules
which, if adopted, will assure a large at
tendance in the House and relieve that
body from the embarrassment which il has
suffered lately. The amendment directs
the sergeant-at-arms to withhold the
monthly pay of member till he has filed
swritten statement that he was present in
the House during the preceding month.

sonal sickness or sickness in his family

A CHILD's NARROW ESCAPE.
Knocked Down by Horse. She Escapes
With Scratch.

With a Scratch.
Laura Raser, the 5-year-old daughter of
Harry A. Raser. was run over by one of
the fire department horses at the corner
of Columbia and Seventh streets yesterday
afternoon, but luckily escaped with no
more serious injury than slight cut on
the mouth.
John Hubbard, driver at the headquar-
tiers engine-house, was exercising his
horses, riding one and leading the other,
and was going up Columbia street at gall
lop. He says that just as he reached Sew
enth street, the child started to cross in
front of him, walking backward that he
succeeded in stopping the horse he was
riding. but the other one ran ahead several
feet before he could stop him, tramping
right over the little one. All the specta-
tors thought for while she was almost
killed, but, fortunately, she proved to be
more scared than hurt

Dead Body Found.

The dead body of tramp was dis
covered last Friday morning on the
railroad track short distance west of
Ixonia station, having evidently been
run over by train No. coming west in
the night. The body was badly man
gled and the skull crushed. Nothing
was found on the tramp's person by
which he could be identified. In his
pockets were a pack of cards, shoe
brush and a piece of soap. The man
was apparently about IS years old and
rather good looking. A coroner's jury
was summoned by Justice Stacy and a
verdict rendered of being run over by
the cars, the result of his own negli-
gence. 1t is known that three tramps
started on the train from Milwaukee
to steal ride, and the dead tramp was
no doubt one of the number.

PURE FOOD IN CONGRESS.
Action which has Resulted I'm the Off

Baking Powder.

Action which has Resulted I'm the Off
cia1 Determination of the Best
Baking Powder.
The act of congress authorizing the
examination of the baking powders
has resulted in most unprecedented
compliment to the Royal Baking Pow
der. The tests were made in the Gov
eminent labratory at Washington, and
the official report shows that the Royal
is superior to all others in leavening
strengthening over thirty per cent.
above the average. The report also
shows the purity of the Royal powder
and the wholesomeness of it's ingred-
tents.
This is probably the highest compli-
ment of an official character ever paid
to proprietary article, though no more
than the great army Of baking powder
consumers would expect in behalf of
their old friend and favorite.
The result of the official examina-
ton, as thus determined, will, Of
course, make the Royal the standard
for government purchases.
