BACHELORS GRABBED
BY CUP|DS
RIVAL CLUBS CLASH IN HARD
FOUGHT GAME OF
BASEBALL.

Custom has it that when it comes to
a direct encounter between Cupid and
a bachelor, Cupid always comes off vic
torious, no matter how the bachelor
may struggle against him. And 50
it was yesterday when the "Cupids"
and the Bachelors two baseball
teams representing two rival clubs
in the city, met on the south side
ball grounds. The Bachelors made a
hard struggle against their rivals, but
it was of no avail, and after II in
nings of hard, well played ball, the
score stood to 4 in favor of the
Cupids
The game was exciting from start
to finish, first one team taking the
lead and then the other, until the
score was tied in the eighth inning.
There it remained for three rounds
more until Morey, who was playing
left field for the Cupids, clouted out
three bagger and brought in the
winning run.
O'Hern was on the slab for the win
ming team, and that he pitched a
classy game of ball is clearly shown
support, and to these two facts is due
the closeness of the game, for the
Bachelors proved themselves fully as
apt, both in the field and at the bat,
as their rivals. Bailey handled
O'Hern's curves in league style and
did some good work with the stick as
well. For the Bachelors, Richards and
Mayne did the battery work, and did
It in such fine form that they were
able to stand off their defeat until the
18th inning.
A Triple Play.
The feature of the game occurred
in the fourth inning, and undoubtedly
won the game for the Cupids in the
end. There We're none out and the
Bachelors had the bases full, with
Richards, the captain, who had already
won himself the reputation of being
a hard hitter, at the bat He hit the
first ball that O'Hern presented to
him and knocked it along the ground
to the box. O'Hern picked it up and
threw to Bailey, putting the man on
third out Bailey threw it to- third
and Conlon threw it to second, catch
ing all three runners before they
reached their bases.
Otherwise the game was without
special feature other than the pitch
ing and fielding of both teams, and
not until the 18th inning did either
team get a chance to score. Then,
with one man on base, Morey, who had
just relieved Mitchell at left field, put
the ball to the fence and brought in
the winning run. There was but a
small crowd in attendance, but the
roofing was strong and the excitement
great. The teams will play return
game next Sunday

ON THE RUN
ABOUT TOWN
PEOPLE YOU KNOW AND SOME
OF THE THINGS THEY
DO AND SAY.

There wasn't much to brag about in
the weather line yesterday, but it was
pretty good, compare
A HAPPY lively speaking. and
SUNDAY. there We're hundreds of
people who enjoyed the
day even if the sun was not very
bright There We're strolling parties,
afoot, on horseback, in buggies and in
automobiles--and everybody appeared
to be having good time. 1t wasn't
very sunshiny but it was warm and
everything alive responded to the in
fluence and was astir. The vegeta
tion made rapid advance all over the
city and all about it; there were great
punches of wild flowers brought in
from the fields and there were smiles
along with every bunch. In the gar
dens the lilacs and honeysuckles are
well leaved out, and the iris, the tulips
and the lilies are breaking through the
ground. 1t is hard for the pessimist to
follow his calling under these condi-
tions, and ii is lot easier to be happy
than it is to be melancholy. Combined
with the pleasant weather conditions
was the new railway information
which The Missoulian gave out yes
terday morning, that there is to be a
battle in the Lolo pass; that means
activity on all sides and the certainty
of another road with new tributary
territory--all of this added to the
days enjoyment in Missoula, and, all
in all, it was good Sunday.

If you go forth to kill a fish, get a
license; If you go forth to slay a
gopher, get a license;
GET ONE II you go forth to shoot
LICENSE. bear, get a license. No
matter what you go
forth to do, it is well to be prepared,
and therefore it Is the part of wisdom
to get license, for you never can tell
what you will be up against before
YOU get back The new fishing and
hunting licenses We're received yes
tcrday by Deputy Wardens Mccormick
and Froman and are ready for those
who want them at the statutory price.
1t Is necessary to have a license If
you're going afield to get anything
alive; the new law requires 1t and the
new Wardens are right onto their job;
there is no way of evading 1t, and un-
less you want to languish in durance
vile you'd better get a license. The
game warden's department needs the
money, and if you don't get license
you will wish you had one before you
get through with the job. There is
no open season for anything If you
have no license; you can't even Kill
gopher If you have not the official per-
mission. Dig up your dollar or the
warden will have your scalp. 1t Is for
the good of the cause, anyway, and
the man who hesitates loses his sum
mer sport and fails in his duty to-
ward the state. Come on with your
dollars or Wen be on your collars and
we'll land like thousand of brick;
and the fellow who hollers will find
we are scholars at turning this license
fee trick" Such is the song that the
game wardens sing and they'll be sure
to catch you If you don't dig up.

board Of visitors at the Naval aCad-

duties with a zest and interest that
was particularly pleasing to the acad-

everything there was to be seen, ate
in the mess hall, went out in the
launches and watched the drills. At
last he decided that he must slep in a

Three thousand angora goats herded
out on the brush-covered foothills of
California are going to do some hard
work for Uncle Sam during the coming
two years beginning this spring. The
experiment Will be unique, both as a
stock raising proposition and as an en-
gineering and tree culture problem.
The little white animals whose lonk
wool is OF such great value are going
to be put to no less a task than con.

the least important feature of the eX-
pertinent, which for the first two years
will be confined 10 the Lassen forest,
IS the fact that the task will be per-
formed during the regular grazing by
the goats, which will not even realize
they are doing a valuable work.
Plans for carrying on the work are
outlined in a cooperative agreement
drawn up by the forest service and
the owner of a band of angora goats
grazing on the Lassen national forest
of California. The scheme is 10 run
fire lines parallel with the contour of
the slopes by cutting trails about so
rods apart. These trails axe to serve
as guides for the angoras. They will

also make a place for reproduction of
merchantable trees.
