Freight Agent Says There VIII Be
Much Wheat TO Ship This Fall Not

Rain From Different Sections of the
Wheat Belt-Umatilla County VIII
Fare as Good as Any.

E. A. McKenna, travelling freight
agent for the Northern Pacific, who
travels extensively all over the inland
empire, says that the prospect for,
good wheat crop is as good in Umatilla
county as anywhere else in eastern
Oregon or Washington. The wheat is
not as good as it was last year, but
there will be a good crop notwith-
standing the complaints from different
sections of the northwest.
In the Eureka flat country, the
boasted wheat district of eastern
Washington and in the Palouse coun-
try. complaints of the dry weather are
being made constantly but there will
be an excellent crop in both those sec
tions. just the same.
In the northern part of Umatilla

Weston district the usual crops is

In the foothill sections of eastern

some of the crops have been reduced

being cut in those sections so the crop

WILSON CAPTURES
BAD CHECK ARTIST
Man Wanted at Waitsburg Taken by
Local Deputy Sheriff.

Local Deputy Sheriff.
T. B. Newton, wanted at Waits
burg, Wash, on the charge of passing
bogus checks, was arrested here last
evening by Deputy Sheriff Bert Wilson
and taken to Walla Walla on the noon
train by Sheriff Haviland.
Wilson was given a telephone de-
scription of the man wanted, a few
minutes before the train from Wala
Walla was due to arrive and 1t is
partly due to his sprinting ability as
well as his ability to spot a man with
slight description, that enabled him
to make the capture.
Newton is a young man, we'll dress
ed and of good appearance. He had
several bogus checks in his possession
when searched and 1t. is believed he
exchanged some of the worthless pa
per for good coin of the realm in

One of those thrillers which the de-
voted fans are always praying for and
so seldom getting was pulled off yes
terday at the Matlock grounds between
the baseball teams of Pendleton and
Baker City, the victory remaining with
the locals by score of to 2.
There was everything yesterday that
the most critical fan could wish for
Brilliant plays, tight holes, pretty
steals, clean hits and little ragging.
In short, while there were several err
rors. some of which were due to the
gale and the clouds of dust which
swept across the diamond, 1t was near
| ly an ideal game.
The real sensation came in the last
half of the ninth, however. Two men
Iwere down and two men on bases
when Conrad. the doughty first base
man. came to bat and picked out the
| first ball that came over, swatting
the horsehide sphere fair on the nose
and sent it~hurtling through the air
far and away over the left fielder's
head, scoring the winning run and an
extra one for good measure.
Teams Strike Their Pace.
Like Sundays contest, the game
from the start was the real thing and
it would seem that both teams have
struck their gate and will play good
ball for the rest of the season. 1t was
no disgrace to lose such contest as
Yesterdays and there is all the more
glory to win.
Pendleton took the lead in the very
beginning by registering one run in
the first canto. But while they were
ahead La Grande came so dangerous
~ near scoring on several occasions
as to keep the fans up in the air and
everybody playing all the time.
In the sixth was when things looked
the brightest for the visitors, when
with nobody down, the bases were
filled. Aubin rose to the occasion,
however, and accept for the low ball
which Boewer was unable to stop In
time to prevent the one run, there
was nothing doing. The score was
then tied and in the seventh Baker
added another, placing them one to
the good.
When the locals came. to bat they
evened things up and when neither
side was able to score in the eighth
the crowd began to whisper of extra
innings. Baker failed to do anything
| 10 OF oh
Pendleton succeeded in getting her
first two men up on the bases, the
next two went out and it remained fol-
Conrad to eNrn the trick which won
the game.
