Base Ball.

Last Saturday afternoon the Needles
Base Ball team crossed bats with a
picked nine, at the base ball grounds
east of town. The day was rather
warm, but the rooters we're out in
force to help the local nine to win.
The grand stand was filled to over
flowing with an appreciative crowd.
The game resulted in favor of the home
nine by score of IA to 4. The visit.
ora we're unable to bunch their hits,
while Kingmau pounded two pitchers
out OF the box. 1t is remarkable fact
that Needles has never been able to
via game ia Kingmsn, while King
man never won a game in Needles
during the past ten years. The Nee
dies boys are good players, having
beaten everything they went against
this season, but the Kingmsn hoodoo
was too much for them. A return
game will probably be played at Nee
dies just as soon as the weather at that
place moderates.

pOrtant Ceremony BY
Two Old School
mates Here

o'clock Rev. Father Benedict Barr,
youngest son of Mrs. J. G. Barr of this
city. and who was ordained in Mt.
Angel yesterday morning, will cele-
brate his first mass at st. Joseph's
Catholic church. IL will be an i'm
portant event in local Catholic circles,

here, an event that may not be re
peated in many years. Father Barr
will be assisted by Father Fischer, of
Tacoma as deacon, and Father Oil
votti, as sub-deacon, both OF them
former schoolmates Of the young cele.
branb. Father Williams, o. S. r., OF
Mt. Angel college, will preach the ser
mon, and Father Dominic will preside
at the organ. It is expected that many
priests will be in attendance. and
among them probably Rev. w. A.
DAILY. former rector Of St. Joseph's
church, but now stationed in Albina.
A large congregation is expected TO
be present. as Father Barr when a
boy in this city, was very popular, and
his family stands high in social, busi'
ness and professional circles in this
city, and, aside from the many Catho-
lies here, a large number Of others are
expected to be In attendance.
Some time Sunday afternoon Father
Barr will be called upon to Christen
the little son OF his brother c. L.
Barr, born a couple of days before the
ordination. This will also be Rev
Barr's first baptism, and the new ar
rival will be given the reverend uncle'f
name, Raymond Joseph.
