RAGLANS
LOSE
SERIES
Foreigners Help Themselves
TO Two Out of Three
Games With Ease
Standing Of the Clubs.

Almost 1000 people witnessed the
Ragans lose the second of the series
of games with the Vancouver "For-
eigners." The locals had tired feel
ing from the start, and it would be
hard to tell just where the game was
lost, One thing is certain, as re.
marked by The Journal several days
ago, and that is that Manager Preble
has great bunch of stickers, and
they keep the pitcher working all the
time. The man in the center thinks
that he has found their weak spots,
but perhaps the next time they are
at the bat he is disillusionized.
through the medium of several bingles
far out in the garden. When they do
hit they are not afraid to slam the
horsehide with a vengeance. and it
usually brings returns on the tally
sheet.
Another thing in favor of the For
eigners" is that they are risky base
runners, and take all kinds of chances
when making the circuit. For a
bunch that has only played together
for a week they show up well, and.
with a couple of changes in the line
up, will make any of the clubs look
at their hole card before the season
is over.
Salem is handicapped by wilkins,
the catcher, and. while Lougheed has
played an almost errorless bame be.
hind the bat, the absence of the regu-
lar catcher seems to weaken the work
of the team. Besides wilkins is a
great stlcller, and has added material
ly to the victories. Four games out
of six is pretty good anyway and we
could not expect to win everyone or
the league would go to pieces for lack
of interest. The main feature of the
game was the batting of Isl" Davis,
who hammered out one double and
triple, the latter in the seventh, bring
ing in two runs Fay was injured in
the fourth by colliding with Bayne in
right field His hand was split in the
miXup, but after a few minutes he
resumed playing, and pluckily stayed
through the game.
The next series will commence on
Thursday between the same teams at
this city, and the lovers of baseball
can rest assured that they will wit
ness four fine games, as both teams
will be in better condition.
The score was as follows:

Runs and Hits by innings.
The Game on Saturday.

The Saturday game was one con
tinuous round of errors and it was
entirely due to the fact that the Rag
lans lowered their proud flag. There
were good plays, but the poor ones
overshadowed all others and spectators
lost interest in the game. McInnis
pitched good ball, but the Foreigners
punched hits on him and errors crop
ped out at critical times, costing him
the game. Howard pitched fairly good
ball, but was touched for a dozen
raw. The score was as follows:

SCHOOL
ClackamaS County Pupil Make
Hard Fight to Get Edu-
Gated

The state board of education is
hearing the case of school board of
district No. 2S, Clackamas county,
against Wesley Thiessen, on appeal
from the decision of the county super
intendent of Clackamas county.
Wesley Thiessen was attending
school in district No. 2S, and was sus-
pended by the teacher for alleged dis
orderly conduct, and the school board
sustained the action of the teacher.
He appealed to the county school SUI
perintendent, and that official re-
versed the findings of the board, and
ordered Thiessen reinstated. The SUI
perintendent concluded that the Of
fense was trivial, and that Thiessen
had been sufficiently punished The
board refused to abide by the action
Of the superintendent, and perfected
an appeal to the state board, which
consists of Governor Chamberlain,
Secretary of State Dunbar and Super
intendent Ackerman. The board does
not hear any testimony, but reviews
the testimony introduced In the trial
before the superintendent.

Ferdinand Erickson, Democratic can
didate for Judge of the Seventh dis

official count Of the vote of Sanpete
county gave him a lead of SO5 over w.
| ID. Livingston in that county. This
places Mr.. Erickson two votes ahead in

have not been received, but, as he has
profted by the official count in every
instance, Mr.. Erickson is of the opin-
ion that returns from the missing coun-
ties will increase his lead. The race
between him and Livingston has proved
to be the closest contest of the kind in
the history of the state.

BOLD BANDITS TURN A
TRICK AT WORLDS FAIR

St Louis, NQv. 15.-It has just be-
come known from the exposition police
station that two masked men held up
and robbed a train on the miniature
railroad at the worlds fair Saturday
night in true western style. securing
money and valuables amounting to
about 800 and then escaped. The
train, containing the engineer and
three passengers, was making its last
trip and was crossing a deserted plot
Of ground when suddenly two masked
men with drawn revolvers appeared In
the shaft Of light thrown ty the head
light and called to the engineer to stop.
The train Immediately came to a
standStill and, while one robber covered
those aboard. the other relieved them
Of their money and valTables. Jacob

was arrested today on suspicion, but
was released on bond.
