The Pitching Problem.

The queer thing about baseball this
year is the way the pitchers are being
hit There is not a pitcher in either
league but what Is getting his bumps
this season. Men that were practically
tnvincible last season are "in and out
ers" this year. Speedy pitching counts
for very little in the game now. Those
pitchers with a fine cross fire have
bothered the batsmen most, but this
style Of work, like the spit ball. soon
wears a man out until he is OF little
use to his team. Years ago pitchers de
pended on change Of pace and good
headwork. and they are returning to
the old style once more.

A large majority of the property
owners on Center street have prepar-
ed signed and presented to Acting
Mayor Bowen, who is chairman of
the street committee, a petition asking
that the city fathers Immediately take
up the proposition of matchmaking
that thoroughfare. The petition car
ries with it the suggestion that the
plans of City Engineer Sandberg, pre-
pared a year ago be adopted. These
call for an eight-inch treatment Of
macadam with proper curbs.
The petition was circulated by Ira
B. Sturgis and John Waterman, the
former having on the two previous
occasions opposed the improvement
Others, like Mr.. Sturgis, recognize
that something must be done for the

FRAZER COMPANY is STRONG.
Excellent Play Appreciated by Large
and Enthusiastic Audience.

That the Frazer Theater company,
appreciated during its stay here, was
shown by the attendance and applause
last night, on the occasion of the
company's first appearance here. AL
though the weather was cold, never
theless the theater was well filled,
and that the play was liked was
shown by the applause.
The bill last night was "The Black
Hand" a stirring four-act melo-
drama. The scene is in the noun
tains of Kentucky, and the plot hinges
around a family feud of many years
standing and an outlaw organization
known as the Black Hand. The play
was we'll presented by Mr.. Taylor's
company, which in its class is one of
the best troupes that has ever been
seen here. There is sufficient COM
edy in the production to keep the
program from being too weighty. AS
Herman Hochstein, a German, d. s.
Cobb is a success, while David Will
liams as Dick Day, whose feet and
tongue both stutter, was also clever.
There is not poor member in the
company.
X. J. Taylor appeared last night as
Jim Hopkins, and he played the part
in his usual capable manner.
Tonight "a Man of Mystery will be
given.

YAKIMA GROWERS HOLD WOOL
More Confident and Tenacious Than
Year Ago.

What is the price of wool in Yaki-
ma? asks the Daily Republic. No
body seems to know, because no deals
have been closed. establishing mar
ket price for this commodity. There
are number of wool buyers in the
city and they are offering the wool
growers certain prices for their pro-
duct hut so far no one has been able
to prevail upon the sheepmen to let
go.
IT is hard to give local quotations
under these conditions. Wool is worth
81 cents in New York after it has
gone through all the cleaning pro-
cesses. Conservative men interested
in the wool business say that when
wool only brings 81 cents in New York
after passing through the securing
mills and freight being paid upon it,
the growers of the Yakima valley
should not expect more than is or Ia
cents for their product, as it is turned
over to the buyers here. In other
words 65-cent wool in New York Is
worth Is cents in Yakima everything
being taken into consideration.
Notwithstanding this basis of ar
riving at local price, the woolgrow-
ers are absolutely refusing to sell to
the eager buyers at the prices offer
ed by the latter class.
The sheepmen seem to think wool
is going to bring 25 cents. Some Of
fers have been made as high as 81,
but most of the buyers refuse 10 pay
more than 10 cents.
The conditions as they exist here
today are rather peculiar, because of
the fact that usually at this time of
the year thousands of pounds of wool
change hands. This year no contracts
have been made and the woolgrowers
are holding like some of the hop
growers did in 1904. 1t will be re-
membered that some of the hcpgrow-
ers held out for 35 cents and sold this
winter for 8.

VICTIMS OF TREMENS.
Drink Crazy People Increase in Port
land

Never in the history of the city
prison have the police been called
upon to deal with so many cases of
delirium tremens as within the last
two weeks, says the Oregon Daily
Journal. During that time "a men
arrested for being drunk developed
delirium tremens and 10 were treated
by City Physician Spencer last week.
In one night Jailer Branch had six
men thus afflicted to attend. These
are at present under the care of the
city physician, while one died at Good
Samaritan hospital.
The trouble experienced with these
men, the lack of facility for treat
ment and the refusal of the hospitals
to care for such sufferers on account
of the harm caused other patients by
their rawlings and acts of violence, all
are urged by the police as reasoIlI
urgently calling for the establishing
of city receiving hospital.
In many cases where deaths have
occurred from accidents, the police
assert, the lives of men might have

"PIFF, PAFF PoUF, MARCH 80.
Fine Collection of Musicians ant
Comedians.

"Piff, Paff Pouff," is a euphonious
French phrase, which has been used
frequently in literature, operas and
dramas of that country. Offenbach
and Audran employ the expressions
repeatedly, as does also the elder
Dumas in his romances. Even much
earlier than the time in which these
writer's flourished, "Piff Paff, Pouff'
was used as a term of expression by
the French. AS nearly as can be ar
rived, the meaning of the exclamation
in English, is "Oh, nonsense" or "Oh,
fiddlesticks," "Piff, Paff, .Pouf'

including the great Pony Ballet.
There are over 20 song hits and

church at the corner of Webb and

construction work on the building will
commence by April l. The work of
eXcavating for the church is now
about completed, and the architectu-
raj plans are expected daily. These
have been drawn by an Illinois archi-
tect who makes a specially of church
buildings. AS soon as they arrive ar
rangements will be made for COM

plan may be followed so as to allow

the members.
The new church is to be of stone,
and when finished will be by far the
finest structure of its kind in this
section of the country. 1t is estimat-
ed that the building when completed
will have cost $4,000.
Now that the church is preparing
