Fire Alarm.

About AIS Tuesday evening the
alarm was sounded and there was a
hurrying of the fire boys and the
draymen to get the apparatus linn
bered up and on the way, for a fire
was reported in the st. Johns lum-
ber mill. Those lumber mill fires
are something fierce when they get
started aud everybody just spread
himself to get there quicker than
the other fellow. When the aggre-
cation had proceeded as far as Edi-
son street word was brought that
the fire was out. Captain Kane 5
men are upto snuff and capable of
doing good work in the fire-hghting
line themselves, besides, the mill is
equipped in the best possible man
ner for fighting fire. II would be
next TO impossible for a fire to get
any Roadway there during the day.
I, was a good thing though. to
get the department out, as Il gives
the boys practice, and then II is i'm
possible to tell when they may be
needed after fire starts. So.
while there was no damage done
this time and there was no need for
our lads, they did the proper thing
TO get a "wiggle on when they
heard the hurry up" call.

The Fans OF St. Johns witnessed
one of the most exciting Tri-City
games of the season June 7, when
the Frakes shut out the Albina
Cherubs with a score of S to o.
Until the fifth inning neither team
scored, Olney covered the mound
for the Frakes. and with excellent
support of his team mates allowed
but three hits. Crosby pitched for
the Albinas. He issued seven
passes to first and allowed four hits.
His underhand ball was a great
fooler. Mcbride caught a great
game and had a deadly aim for
second. Rankin, the umpire, GER
tainly rubbed it into Albina and
favored the Frakes throughout.
June IA the Frakes will play the
Apostles at St. Johns.

The Home Boys Won From the Nis-

Again the Richland boys came,
saw and were conquered by the local
aggregation of ball players, the score
standing 8 to at the final round
up. The game was not nearly so
interesting as the last 1 to 0 contest
between these two teams, Dawson in
this case having a waIkover from
the beginning.
In the second inning H. Melton S
base on balls, PAGES sacrifice, Twins
error and R. Melton's two-bagger
were responsible for two runs In
the fourth r. Melton singled to cen
ter and made the round trip through
errors by Patton and French. H.
Melton singled in the sixth, stole
second and came home on outs of
Pace and McRae. In the next inning
a base on balls, a stolen base, two
errors and five hits registered five
more for the locals and put the hopes
of Richland rOOters on cold storage
The visitors were presented with
one in the third and two more in
the seventh, in the hope that these
would screw their courage to the
sticking point, but their courage re-
fused to be triled with in this man
ner.
The features of the game were the
batting of R. Melton and the grace
full umpiring of Mr.. Hern Melton
of LAGRANGE
The agony looked this way to the
scorer.
