Local Ball Tossers Defeated at
Kamiah and Nez Perce.
SHUT-OUT AT KAMIAH
Put Up Great Ball in Nez Perce
Beaten 6 to 3.

The "hum boys that classy ag-
gregation with FIVE victories and no
defeats to its credit, look different now.
AT Kamiah last Sunday they were
humiliatingly defeated by the bunch
of ball tossers of that city. The
score was II to O. Think of it!
Twelve times around for the Indians
and absolutely nothin' doin' for the
Grangeville lads. Don't seem pos
sible after winning everything that
came their way all season. Jarvis and
Brooks, the gladiators whose work with
the big stick always counts, were out
of the game and this fact along with
some decidedly rotten fielding by the
visiting team and their inability to con-
meet with Mccoy Hills twisters ex-
plains about how this shut-out affair
happened.
Left Fielder Brooks and Catcher
Jarvis went over to Nez Perce Mon
day to assist in the game with that
aggregation. Manager Day went
along, too, to cheer his cohorts to
their best efforts. The boys lined up
against the fastest team at Nez Perce
that they have met this season. Sew
eral imported players were playing
under the Nez Perce colors and the
whole bunch put up fast enough ball
to defeat the dear, beloved Grangeville
boys by score of 6 to 3. 1t was a
fast contest, but our lads played out
of luck. Sempert, Schmadeka and
Brooks lined out two-bagger apiece
and Brown and Jarvis each connected
with the sphere for three bases but
all these hits, usually sure of one or
more runs in any game, came just at
the least opportune time. Bonner
was trihe wild but he pitched good
ball, nevertheless. Nez Perce will
be here Thursday, July 9th, to play
the return game and rattling good
contest may be expected.
Nez Perce treated the Grangeville
players royalty and all of the local team
report very pleasant stay in the res
ervation city.
The Grangeville boys went from
,, , Nez Perce to the railroad bridge across
Lawyers canyon yesterday to see the
work being done there. They ar
rived home last night

Had Pleasant Visit.

M. Reese Hattabaugh went up to
Spokane the last of the week to meet
Mrs. Hattabaugh and their little son,
Reese, who were returning from
visit with relatives and friends in
Kearney, Nebraska. They arrived
home Sunday afternoon. They had
most delightful visit at Mrs. Hatta-
baugh's former home in Kearney,
the extreme heat being the only
disagreeable feature of the trip.

Pioneer Association Plans For
Big Time July 10th.
PICNIC AT NURss' GROVE
Basket Dinner at Noon-Merry-
go-round for Children.

The executive committee of the
Idaho County Pioneer Association
has arranged the program for the
pioneers picnic to be held at Nurss'
grove on Friday, July 10. The
festivities will begin at II O'Clock in
the forenoon, when the president, A.
F. Parker, will call the meeting to
order and deliver the address of well
come. After the song, Idaho, 0
Idaho," which appears below, |. c.
Hattabaugh will give an address. Short
speeches by pioneers and selections
of vocal music will make up the bal
ance of the program after which the
basket dinner will be in order.
A most cordial invitation is extended
to the general public to attend the
picnic with a basket of good things
to eat. Help the old settlers enjoy
good time. The merry-go-round
and other attractions will be on the
grounds to furnish amusement for old
and young.
1t is the intention of the pioneers to
hold a grand celebration upon the
completion of the Northern Pacific
railroad from Culdesac to this city.
Two or three days will probably be
taken up in appropriately celebrating
this important event.

In the Social Realm

A jolly crowd of neighbors and
friends met at the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. Thomas Kerr, few miles north
of town, last Friday night to celebrate
the first anniversary of the wedding of
the host and hostess. Games, music,
dancing, and bountiful supper were
in vogue during the evening, all of
which everyone present thoroughly
enjoyed. 1t was one the happiest
events of the kind in that neighborhood
for many months.
Seven of the members of the class
of '06 of the local high school were
entertained Saturday evening at the
home of Miss Maude PEBBLES near
town. The yard was illuminated
with Japanese lanterns and the Jolly
ex-graduates were royalty entertained
by the hostess, who was a clasSmate
of the guests. Hilariously enjoyable
games were played and delicious re-
freshments served. In addition to
the ex-graduates, several young folks
went out to the PEBBLES ranch to
enjoy the evening The members OF
the class of o6 who were present
were Messrs. Crawford and McGrew
and the Misses Davis, Sebastian, Sco-
field, Hastings and Tilley.
