Bandits in Newberg.

A gang of three men attempted to
blow open the safe in the bank at New
berg by exploding charges of dynamite
at an early hour Monday morning. The
steel vaults held, however, and the
robbers we're forced to abandon their
plans and flee without any booty. They
left on horseback and started in the di-
rection of Portland. The citizens were
terrorized for two hours. Some were
kept covered by guns in the hands Of
two of the bandits while others we're
allowed to go to their homes completely
cowed.

Postmaster Citizens has made appli-
cation to the department. for permission
to move the postoffice from its present
location to the Post building. He gives
as his reason the dilapidated condition
of the building in which the business of
the Office is now transacted.
Truth of the matter is, tent would
be creditable shelter, compared with
the shack which contains Athena's post
Office and the business men, with one or
two exceptions, favor moving the office
to the place selected by Mr.. Citizens,
and have placed their signatures to a
petition praying the postoffice depart

the Office is removed, Mr.. Citizens will
occupy the building with the postoffice
only, and the family will take up private

THARP BROS. MILL.
Prepared to Crush Corn as Well
as Barley.

Tharp Bros. chop mill has been grind
ing away on barley this week. The mill
is new and the machinery the best that
money can buy. The work it is doing
is thoroughly satisfactory to the farmers
a great number of whom have already
taken advantage of the chance to have
their barley crushed and rolled at the
new mill.
In addition to chopping barley, the
mill is so equipped that corn and wheat
can be mashed or ground for feeding
purposes. This foresight on the part Of
the proprietors will be greatly appreciat-
ed by farmers who have raised corn, for
by having it crushed the grain goes far
ther, is easier handled and produces
more satisfactory results.

announces the marriages of George and

The Iowa paper of last week chron-

and Miss Lola Willard, at Marion, Ia,
on Wednesday morning, Oct. 7. The
bride is sister of Frank Willard, the
well known ball player. In the
evening the marriage Of George and
Miss johnson was solemnized at the
brides home in Springyslle, the couple
being preceded to the altar by Mr.. and
Mrs. Rollo 7. Brown.
In baseball parlance, Roll evidently
played an errorless game. There was
no ''grand stand" exhibition, for the
reason that his most intimate friends
were not aware that the 'game" was on.

PACIFlCS BEST
THE HONOLULUS

In a game which even the losers called
fine, the Pacifics set two points to their
credit in the record of the Association
football league, and came mighty near
winning the leadership of the league for
the season. There will be bare
chance, if the Honolulus win all their
remaining games. or the Males win all,
for the men in blue meeting defeat,
but this is the only way in which they
can lose the cup for the year. The score
now is Pacific, 6; Honolulu, 8; Male, 1.
The teams put out perhaps their best
men for the game, and the only reason
why there was not much higher score
was that the defense Of the Honolulus
was of the very highest caliber. 1t was
defense almost all the time, too, for the
reds were seldom in their opponents
territory, while the fast and hard work
of the blues kept the other goal men
aced from start to finish. The victory
was by the narrow margin of two goals
and these, kicked by Morse, showed the
magnificent play between that sterling
performer and Blackman, the two be-
ing fast and showing such form as to
dribbling and lodging as to enable them
to get through almost at will.
The first half was unproductive,
though there was some fine work on
both sides, Morse, Blackman, Guild and
Beardmore being perhaps the star per-
formers for their team, while the Cat
tons, Soper. Cockburn, and Donnelly
showed for the Honolulus.
In the second half the game warmed
up, and very quickly it was that, after
q hard play up field, Morse was able to
score, shooting just out Of reach OF
Cation. Twice did the lad stop hard
drives, and as many times Morse was
able to get the gage. but on another raj
ly. after Beardmore had kicked out and
osborne had sent forward to Blackman,
that forward centered and Gleason
missed the STOP wherein Morse was
quick enough to shoot the ball through
for the second and last score.
Next week Honolulu and Male meet

PUT up steady game in the cricket
match at Punahou yesterday afternoon,
between the officers of the Stlvertown
and the Honolulus. The officers ran up
a score of fifty-three for their innings
while the Honolulus, after scoring
seventy, which gave them the victory,
and having but two men out, closed
their innings on account of the hour.
Picker, the Honolulu captain, won
the toss and E. Rymer Jones of the
cableship took his eleven to bat, and
after long innings they were all out
for fifty-three. A. J. Clunie and A. J.
Butchard did especially good work for
the cable layers.
The Honolulus did not stay at bat
long Two of their men were put out,
. when Ahlo and r. Anderson took their
places. Between them they rolled up
score which exceeded by one the total
number of points made by the other
side. Further playing was unneces-
sary, so Picker declared the innings
closed, after his men had already won
the match by six wickets and seven
teen runs.
The individual scores of the elevens
were as follows:

JUNIOR LEAGUE GAME.

The opening game of the Junior As
ISOLATION League was played on the
Makiki field yesterday, and for first
game it was we'll worth while. The
result of the match was Cables, 2;
Y. NJ. c. A, 0. The lads went into the
game with vigor, and they left nothing
undone, meeting the attacks of the op-
ponents with firm front, and showing
capacity to dribble and block. There
were many fouls, though, and it was
from the free kick of one of these that
one Of the scores was made. The game
of next week will be of as high class.
