THE WASHER.


1t is pretty safe to say that even the
most joyless among us rejoice when
ever the masher gets the worst of it,
for he, of all vulgarians, is the chief.
He is brainless and unspeakable
nuisance. Every city in the country
knows him, for he is one of the ex-
crescences of urban civilization. 1t is
because of the revulsion and contempt
which decent people have for him
that the story which comes from New
York as to how a pair of them came
to grief, is repeated.
A young woman who occupied the
position of cashier in restaurant was
returning home late at night and was
accosted by two men. She paid no
heed to them until one of them made
an insulting remark. Then she turned
upon him and knocked him down with
the metal handle OF her umbrella, and
while he was PROSTATE she rained
blows upon him for fair His CON-
panion came to the rescue. but the
same metal handle welded by a stur-
dy arm brought him low. The young
woman beat them until they screamed
for help and eventually the police
came to the rescue and arrested both
the men.
One of them had to be taken to the
hospital for repairs, while the other
had his scalp stitched by the police
surgeon. In due time the two men
were hailed before court and heavily
fined, while the young woman was
complimented for her resolution and
courage.
Thinking men from one end of the
land to the other will take their hats
off to that girl. She is one of the very
few who have the courage to turn up-
on the worthless clothes racks who
attempt to force their attentions upon
women, because the majority of
ladies shrink from the publicity which
such course involves They are no
less brave than the one whose
story is here related, but prefer to
pass them with the same high minded
contempt that they would extend to a
cur. They, too, will rejoice in the
punishment dealt out to the villains.
BY the way, is it not about time
that Candidate Burke was telling the
people of the state wherein he ex-
poets to change the business admin
fstratiOn of the state when he gets
into the executive chair? Or does he
think it is useless to discuss a condi-
ton which will never exist? The peo-
pie have heard so much of the prom
Uses, they are becoming impatient to
have the particulars.

The camp has been in existence for
some three years, and quartz mining

The following from the Heppner
Times concerning the county fair,
shows the excellent spirit of the peo-
Use of the most hearty cooperation in
future. The Times says:
Morrow County Day at the Third
District Fair at Pendleton on Monday
was fairly a success, but not what 1t
would have been had the day been set
later in the week. The first day of
fair is usually the worst of the fair
season for the reason that seldom are
exhibits and arrangements all COM
pleted.
For that reason many Heppner
people who would have gone remain
ed at home. Then, again, Monday is
about the most difficult day of the
week for the people to break away
from the every day affairs to indulge
in an excursion. But Notwithstanding
these difficulties Morrow County
Day was not a failure.
The excursion train left here
promptly at Z o'clock Monday morn
ing with about 20 aboard, and at Lex
ington and lone picked up enough to
swell the total number of people to
rs, lone furnishing the larger num-
ber of the crowd. While this was
small crowd in point of numbers, en-
thusiasm was not lacking, which went
a long way toward making the day a
success.
While Morrow county exhibits were
not profuse, they were all good, and
| will be a lasting demonstration as to
the products of our county. and serve
the purpose of furnishing to the out
side world a view of the possibilities
| to which the resources of our county
can be developed.
Among the exhibitors from this
| county were: w. o. Minor, who took
over II head of his herd of Shorthorn
cattle, besides some corn, tomatoes,
alfalfa, grass and some other farm
| products. Marshal d. c. Gurdane has
on exhibit 10 fancy chickens, six
Brown Leghorns and four Bleck
| Minorcas, while w. p. Hill, has two
very fine White Leghorns in the poul-
| try show. Besides the above there are
| farm products from all parts of our
county.
Umatilla county's display of pro-
ducts is very good, considering that
this is the first year of the fair. This
might be termed trial year, and next
season both Morrow and Umatilla
counties will put greater effort in the
enterrpize, as the present fair is DEM
onstrati ting the fact that these coun-
ties can make this enterprise sue
cess, and next year even more so than
| this

THE DIAMOND
FITZPATRICK
 IS RELEASED
Popular Springfield Player Asked For Release - Jack Bagley
 May Co.

Springfield, May 29.-Big shifts were made in the Pony herd yester- day by Manager Dan O'Neil, ar- nouncement being made that Bill Yale had been signed to replace Tom Crook at first base, and that Captain Frank Fitzpatrick had asked for and obtained his release. Yale will be at first place in to-day's game against New Haven on Hampden park, and Tom Stankard will be switched over to second.3 Johnnie Burke will cover shortstop for the present at least. The manager has in view the addi- tion of another infielder.
 For some days past Manager O'Neil has been trying to land Yale, who is we'll known to Springfield fans for the great brand of ball he has played for Bridgeport during several years past. He has been with Toronto of the Eastern league. Frank Fitzpatrick is likely to go with New Haven, and may join that team here to-day. though 1t is more probable that he will not break in with the Blues un- til tomorrow. Steamer Flanagan! is expected to get back into harness this afternoon. and if he does Ro- barge or O'Connor will probably be sent to right field for the present.
 Fitzpatrick told the manager yes- terday that he has felt for some time he was not doing justice to himself or the team. He suggested that it would be a case of mutual benefit if 1 a11 IA tofr position with some other team. Manager O'Neil agreed to the sug- gestion with some frank words of commendation for the manly action of the Springfield captain, who has been trying to play under averse con- ditions since the season opened.
 The player has not been putting up the article of ball expected of him on Hampden park, and none knew. it better than himself. Away from Springfield he has been reckoned as about the cleanest and surest fielder of the league. but that fact didn't help him any while the rooterG on the home grounds were against him. He has never been figured on as a hitter, and felt keenly the shafts hurled at him here when he failed to keep up a batting streak he had during the first fortnight.
 There are not in baseball many men of the Fitzpatrick type, even though 1t is fact that baseball crowds do not bother much about the personality of players. Here was a chap who after being injured last season, asked for his release on the grounds that Manager O'Neil had enough expenses without carrying him along. Few players are built that way, and Fitzpatrick is leaving Springfield with the respect of all who have known him personally as we'll as of his fellow players.

 Ferguson was the aggressor and made fast fight out of 1t. He fioored Gus in the first round and the. bell saved the giant. In the second Gus went after Ferguson and put few good rights to the body.
 This was his only flash. He seent- ed unable to block the swings which Ferguson put on his ribs and head. and was utterly powerless before the left to the face. Ferguson was rather wild at times. and twice went to the Hoor through his inability to balance himself when he had missed swings.
 In the last four rounds Ferguson had he shade on points. Gus tried hard to make rally in the ninth. hut it was of no avail He had Sandy weak in the early parf of the round. hut the big Boston man came back strong and finished well
