WALLOPED PORTLAND
TWENTY-THREE TO ONE

1t was one for Portland and Skidoo
for Canon City. But that Skidoc means
'23." as it always does. and the local
boys lined up that fearful score on
the Cementville Cluggers. 1t was a
fast game, but most of the speed
showed in the merry-go-round of base
running which Canon started when
the bell rang and kept up until the
curtain. 1t was a pretty ball game
for all that. with lots of fun mingled
in and a general feeling OF satisfac-
ton.
They tell OF a time, some months
back, when Canon City negotiated
another game with Portland, and
when the Portland lads put a con-
crete coating over Canon. So the
game yesterday was sweet revenge.
Daley proved q puzzle to the visitors.
They couldn't hit him safely. although
they bingled quite a few into the in
field. That's where Canon's clever
fielding showed. The Brothers Will
liams. one on the third station and
the other covering the first sofa pill
low. worked a combination that meant
a retirement every time. Carothers,
pitching for Portland. is not fast
enough for the local stick artists. 1t
was hit safely at all stages. The
score:

in California, Texas, New Mexico and
Arizona. He has received a great
volume OF literature exploiting the op-
portunities and possibilities OF various
towns and cities in those states and

that class OF literature.
A relative OF Mr.. Moore's. who Is

City sent him a copy OF The Records
Illustrated Edition. In acknowledg-
ing the receipt of It Mr.. Moore said:

INJURED IN A MIX-UP
on PROSPECT HEIGHTS

Lozaio Diego, a Mexican about 28
or 80 years of age. was brought to
DR.. Graves hospital Monday night in a
semi-conscious condition as the re-
suit of a number of wounds he re-
ceived in a drunken brawl with sew
eral of his countrymen at the First
Chance saloon on Prospect Heights
between IL and IL o'clock.
In addition to several ugly scalp
wounds Diego was a badly battered
specimen of humanity and looked like
he had engaged in an unpopular con-
troversy at Donnybrook fair and had
received the worst of the argument
While his condition is serious there
appears to be no doubt Of his ultimate
recovery, although it is likely to be
several weeks before he is able to
get around with his accustomed ease
and agility.
