SPOKANE LOSES
LEMONFEST

The latest and most appropriate
way Of showing ones appreciation
of the rottenness of an umpire's
work is to get an armlOad Of lemons
and hurl them at him, at the same
time emitting infective and froth.
That's the way they did at Seattle
yesterday. anyway.
Umpire Ralph Frary got piece
of dirt in his eye (the sort that
feels like brick building) and
couldn't do a good job on balls
and strikes or anything. If he
didn't get the aforementioned brick
structure in his eye, something
was wrong with 1t, or else he had
been loaded the night before.
So the gang gave him a lemon
shower. But the lemons didn't
bother Frary in the least. He
would quietly kick them away and
go on until he stood in lemons as
thick as snowdrifts. If they
weren't they should have been. Spo-
kane lost to 5-ignominy, defeat,
chagrin, all rolled in 1 pill.
Pitcher Coy gave but 2 hits, lit
tie dinkey singles at that. He also
struck out 6 and didn't pass one.
Killilay pitched for the Indians, al
lowed hits, passed and pounded
in the Stats. One of them was
"Nosey" Schafer. How Killilay
could have missed his nose and hit
him in the ribs is wonder. Car
ney was back in right field and
didn't make his customary fight
noise. Bender, who had been hold
ing down the position, went behind
the bat and did pretty good work,
considering.
At Vancouver Butte won 6 to 5
in the 18th inning. The Canadians
got ratified in the ninth and allow
ed the Miners to tie them. Butte
scored in the eleventh.
At Tacoma yesterday Aberdeen
won ito 0. Brinker allowed Ia
coma only 3 safe hits.

THE PASSION PLAY
Moving Pictures Representing Scenes in
the Life Of Christ-Ofigin Of

4 q.
The. Houston Post some time
since published the following de-
scription of the celebrated Passion
Play, which is to be represented
by moving pictures in the Catholic
church in this city Thursday after
noon and evening.
The Passion Play was originated
in the year 1880 by the peasantry
of the Oberammergau valley,
Bavaria, for the purpose of COM
memorating a plague that visited
that part of the country. The idea
of the peasants in originating the
play was found in a desire to do a
sort of penance in the belief that if
they would celebrate the sufferings
of the Lord during the period of
his earthly career the plague would
not again return to that section of
country.
The play is celebrated every ten
years, and is very elaborate in
every particular.
Rev. Father Haughran of St.
Patrick's church has been very
anxious for quite while to secure
this celebrated scriptural presenta-
ton, and he is especially gratifed
at the results last night.
The series of moving pictures
last night represented the following
scenes in the life of Christ:
The annunciation, the birth of
Christ, the shepherds watching
their hocks by night, the flight
into Egypt, massacre of innocents,
Christ in the carpenters shop,
baptism of Jesus, Herodias plead
ing for the head of John the
Baptist, Christ tempted by the
devil, Jesus and the woman of
Christ and his disciples
plucking corn, Christ calling
from the tree, Christ
feeding the multitude, Suffer
little children to come unto Me,

of Lazarus, the TRANSPORTATION,
