Local Fans Amused at EChO's Effort
To Play Ball.
WENT UP AGAINST THE BOOSTERS
WE'RE BEATEN TO A STANDSTILL
BY WAlLA WALLA'S
FAST TEAM.

Eight young men claiming to be ball
players journeyed to Walla Walla yes
teray from Echo, Oregon, to mix it
with the Boosters on the diamond at
the Garden City Park. They mixed it
all right, but it was mixing of wild
throws, booted balls and sleepy base
running. When it came to welding
the willow they were there with holes
the visiting team had an eye and went
after every ball that came from the
or wide of the plate. On the other
hand the Boosters were there with the
Kennedy, the man who essayed to do
the twirling for the Echo bunch. The
ny Lankard was pressed into service
to handle the balls behind the bat
hard to win the game against the
Bosters. Parkes was the initial point
for Walla Walla for six innings He
had good control and only allowed two
hits Both were of the scratch order.
At the beginning of the seventh Kill
patrick went in the box for Walla Wal
la and he was equally as effective as
Parkes One safe one off him was his
record.
While the game was decidedly one
sided, Walla WalIa winning by a score
of IA to 0, the visitors furnished plenty
of amusements for the, fans by the way
they tried to play the game.
The features Of the game were four
double plays. Three of these were made
by Walla Walla and much to the sur
+, prise Of the spectators one was pulled
off by the visitors in the first Inning.

BILE j. H. Morrow, general manager OF
the company, returned Saturday from
a trip to the Sound where he engaged
a new crew. Mr.. Morrow said:
Railroad construction throughout
the northwest has caused such keen
demand for civil engineers and skilled
labor that it has been almost impossi-
BILE for the Columbia & Walla Walla
Traction company to keep force IN
the field. We got our line surveyed as
far as Gardena two weeks ago and
then were forced to suspend opera
tons owing to. our inability to secure
competent engineers. / have spent the
past two weeks at Spokane and on the
Sound engaging a new crew and work
started again today. I hope the line
will be surveyed now without any fur
Their delay. l have secured the SER
vices of Frank Bartlett anu -. Ken
nedy to complete the work and these
engineers will have charge of the sur
veys until they are completed.
"Mr. Bartlett was the engineer in
charge of the electric line between
Seattle and Tacoma and is an engineer
Of wide experience He has been in the
employ of the st. Paul & Milwaukee
people for some time past but we were
able to secure his services at a sub
stantial advance over the salary he
was receiving from the railroad peo-
pie. Engineer Bartlett will complete
the survey between Gardena and Day
ton via Walla Walla and started out
yesterday with his crew.
Engineer Kennedy has had wide ex-
perience in railroad construction work.
He was in charge of one crew that
bored the Cascade tunnel. He will
commence work at the mouth Of the
Touchet and survey up that stream
on lines the company has decided
upon"

Poor Fishing NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
fishing parties that journeyed up Mill
creek and out to the Walla Walla river
yesterday returned to the city last
night practically empty-handed. Fish
ermen declare that the sport was never
poorer at this season of the year. 1t is
believed that the numerous dams and
irrigation projects taking water from
the lower Walla Walla is responsible
for the poor fishing this year. But few
trout and salmon have been able to
mount the ladder at the Columbia Ca
nal company's dam at Nine Mile
bridge above Wallula and as a result
the tributary streams are being rapidly
depleted.

Plenty Of Ball This Week.

The fans Of Walla Walla will have
an abundance of ball this week. All the
games will be between good teams and
close and exciting contest may be ex-
pected. Tomorrow afternoon the Blair
Business College team will be here and
meet Whitman on the college grounds.
The two teams played one game at
Spokane recently and the Blairs won
out.
Wednesday afternoon the Blairs will
try conclusions with the Boosters at
the city grounds. This promises to be
an interesting one and large crowd
is expected to witness the game.
Thursday afternoon the benefit game
will be played at the city park, when
the fast team from the Washington
State College will meet the Boosters.
The lads from Pullman are considered
the best college team in the Inland En-
pi1e ara made an excellent showing
against the Spokane league team early
in the season. Saturday the Pullman
team went up against the Palouse
Giants and were defeated by score Of
IA to 2. Ragged fielding and inability
to hit Deacon Thomas, a profess
sional pitcher was the cause.
Saturday and Sunday the La Grande
team will be here This is one Of the
fastest teams in Eastern Oregon and
the Boosters will have to do some good
ball playing if they carry off the hon.
ors. Gregory, who pitched for the
Boosters early in the season, is one of
the twirlers for the Beet-pullers and
no doubt he will make an extra effort
to give his former team mates a good
drubbing.
