big gathering OF knights. their ladies
and friends on the 9Th of september
He met committee representing the
Rosiyn and Gle Eluna lodges and to-
gether they visited and went over the
grounds where it is proposed to hold
the picnic. Mr. Hauser was SO well
pleased with the prospects of big
time, and 50 we'll satisfied with the
grounds, that he can hardly wait for
the date TO come. He is confident that
the picnic viii be the biggest thing of
the kind that ever happened. Every
thing seems 10 be working out salts
factorily, and in all probability several
cars VIII be required TO take from this
city all who want to go. The railroad

The above tells the story Of how
the Tigers took the Outlook team into
camp Sunday afternoon. The runs that
won the game were made in the third
inning. In the second. Jewett, a for
mer member of the Tigers and a
twirler OF no mean ability, was hit
on the pitching arm by a pitched ball
and his control was spoiled for the
time being. He recovered only after
eight runs had been scored and the
game won. The Tigers say that the
outlook boys, with Al Jewett at the
head. are no mean opponents and will
make any team in enis neck Of the
woods get up and hustle. There will
be return game in this city next Sum
day and 1t will be a good exhibition.

Want North Coast Route Changed.

KENNEWICK. Aug. 2o.-The COM
mercial club of this city has decided
TO ask the North Coast railway to
change its route through town from
the present survey through the resi-
dent section and follow the line either
of Front street or Railroad street.
II the North Coast should cross the
townsite on either Front or abroad
street all the transportation facilities
by rail- would be concentrated in one
place. Union depot and warehouses
could be built and travel made as con-
venient as possible for passengers and
the trensfer of freight and baggage
made easy. 81 was estimated that
this arrangement would save thou
sands Of dollars annually.
