Colunibia's undefeated baseball
team maintained its untarnished
record by defeating the Hill Mill
tary Academy in very fast game
last Saturday by the score OF OIL.
Owing to the inclemency OF the
weather the game was played in
the gymnasium and, considering
the place, the game was very re-
markable. Had the game been
PLAYED outside the score would
undoubtedly have been larger, as
the wearers OF the purple and white
showed a remarkable improvement
in batting. There seems tobe little
fear now that Columbia will meet
its equal in baseball this season.
Hill S pitcher, while doing clever
work, was not at all puzzling to
the Columbia sluggers; whereas
Wilkinson, Columbia S twirler, had
his opponents completely at his
mercy. With considerable practice
Wilkinson will prove himself to be
a worthy successor to Charley
Moore, Columbia's star twirler of
last year, and who unfortunately
quit school recently. Columbia
took the field, and for 6 innings the
soldier students saw first base, and
a few died trying the virility of
Otto Moore's arm. In the third
inning, Columbia sent four men
across the plate and one in the
fourth and one in the fifth. Hill
made their solitary score in the
seventh inning. Pandemonium
reigned among the blue and white
contingency when the run was
made. The feature of the game
was the splendid pitching of Wilk-
nson and his base stealing, and the /
fine work of Otto Moore, who is
he best school catcher in Portland. |
It is impossible to steal OH him, and
ater in the season will have a fine
.hrow to second. Even now his
.hrows are quick and accurate, and
asst Saturday he caught two run
iers ten feet from the bag. Streib's
,itching was very good, but he is
lot able to keep the hits scattered.
The field work of both teams was
Iuite fast. Mangold's Scheels,
,foore's and Jennings batting for
and that Of Moore and
'tackpole for Hill was all that could
C expected from amateurs. Fol
owing is the score by innings:

that of Jennings. The fielding OF
both teams was very ragged and
most discouraging to the pitchers,
and heart-breaking to the audience.
The pitching of Mangold was puz-
zling to the High school lads, while
that of Goodell was not very effect

innings and his successor Jared no

tense rivalry prevailed as there

guished himself in this game by
throwing the ball over Clare Shan

BEARS A6 RATTLERs.
Had Desperate Battle, in Which the
 Snakes Were Beaten.

Milwaukee correspondent New York American.
 Frederick Finn and Mortimer Gray.
 while fishing for trout in Panther Run,
 saw a unique duel between mother bear
 and two cubs and colony of rattle-
 snakes.
 The place of battle was not more than
 a rod from the creek on the rising slope,
 and on the sunny side. A series of shelv-
 Ing rocks ended in large surface rock
 almost as level as table and perhaps 20
 feet in area. Off the edge of this grew an oak three of good size, but hollow of trunk about IS feet up.
 One of the cub bears had sought refuge
 up on the first limb of this tree, while the
 second youngster was hanging to the
 trunk, not more than a yard below, like a.
 bat on a limb-head downward Both the
 cubs were squealing for dear life, and the spectators soon saw what the matter
 was, so far as they were concerned. The
 hollow oak was a bee tree. and the bees
 by the hundreds had swarmed upon and about the noses and ears and every other spot that the fur failed to make impreg-
 nable.
 The fishermen soon observed that there was more doing than the serio-comic act
 of the bee tree. Near the foot of the tree
 the mother bear was doing dance for her life, and the unmistakable sounds of the whirring of snakes rattles told the tragic
 tale. The, bears. in their path to the bee tree, had got into a colony of rattlers that were stunning themselves on the rock shelf, and the reptiles had combined to do battle. But the old bear was making
 short shift of the venomous crawlers. She was fighting them much like a dog-tooth and claw-and .iiere appeared to be snakes a dozen or more gliding off for
 shelter under the shelving rocks. The feud continued for ten minutes or more
 before the bear stopped to rest. When she did she cSught whiff of the men to the windward of her, and the next instant, after giving vent to peculiar cry -an alarm for the youngsters-she sham bled off into the bushes in a hurry, the clubs following as quickly as they could scamper down off the tree.
 Finn and Gray made an investigation of the scene of the battle and found fourteen
 dead rattlesnakes their bodies bitten and torn. They also killed seven others that in a little while ventured out of the re- treat. One of the rattlers was almost five feet long and had string of sixteen rattles.

VALUABLE WHISKY.
Lost FIfty-Three Years Ago VIII Be
 Recovered From Steamboat.

Bellevue CNeb) Cor. Kansas City Jour-
 nal.
 If the latest story which comes out of the upper Missouri river is true, the news will cause delight to lovers of good whisky. The same report has been sent abroad at irregular intervals for years, but this time 1t seems to have some foundation on fact. The story Is to the effect that after lying in the mud and sand of the Missouri river for fifty-three years the old steamboat City of New Orleans has been uncovered by the re- cent high water. and It's cargo of 16O bar rels of whisky will probably be recov- cred.
 The City of New Orleans was one of the early steamboats which piled the Missouri river, and was owned by Cap tain La Barge of St. Louis. In 1852 the boat went up having a cargo of leo bar rels of whisky for fur trader near Sioux City. During the night the boat struck snag and sank, the crew taking to the boats.
 Originally the cargo was supposed to have been valued at s75.ooo. but whisky that has been ripened undisturbed in the dark for fifty-two years is worth much more than cents a gallon today.
 John Mccarthy and another resident or Bellevue were rowing to the mainland. it Is said, when they were astonised to see the remains of the old boat imbedded fin tha sand. The story of the City of New Orleans is known all along the river here, and the news quickly spread. Exciteuent soon was aroused. McCar- thv made a nasty examination. and dis covered whisky barrels in the hold. but none has vet been recovered. Arrange ments are being made here to take the barrels from the wreck

John Strange Winter in "Black and

 Don't because you don't see the force of getting up in the middle of the night under a misconception that you are lengthening your life by so doing, make an equally absolute rule of staying in bed until II o'clock, because if you should have to catch the train &t 10 o'clock you will take more out of your sels than by week of ordinary living Don't have an idea that you can't sit with your back to the horses, or with your face to the engine. If you don't happen to be hungry when you sit down to your lunch, don't force your self to eat more than you feel inclined to do. If, at the same time, you feel inclined to have second helping have 1t by all means. Don't take tepid tub as sort of religion on morning when you feel shivering and cold, or if you happen to have pain between your shoulders; on the contrary, have it as hot as you can get into 1t, and you'll feel all the better for 1t
