GEORGE RAE RETURNS
TO NEW YORK

George Rae, Of Rae & Hatfield, the
New York fruit and commission mer-
chants, returned last week TO the
metropolis from a months trip through
tire apple sections of Oregon and the
Pacific Coast. He spent several days
in the Hood River Valley. Mr.. Rae
Visited almost every apple State in the
" e., & found the outlook for a fine
crop of apples good. He says that
while some sections are short, others
are heavy enough TO make up the
deficiency, and that the crop Of box
apples this season will be nearly the
same as .last and the quality Of the
fruit fine. In the Middle West, Mr..
Rae found conditions exceptionally
bright for large crop. The Ozark
section will have more apples than
they have ever had before. While the
best Of them will be put in boxes, the
bulk of the product will be barreled.

Clarence H. Sanford may not lay

Furthermore, he is a humanitarian.

which he caught and has since tanned

night he sleeps in a wall cage, so
that he may not be disturbed The
care with which Mr. Sanford handles

have enjoyed the chipmunk's antics.

A KID IN A BAG.
Makes Men on Ferryboat Ask Fool
ish Questions.

From a thin gunny bag carried by
a mlddle-aged woman on an early fer
ryboat the other morning there came
a cry that sounded very like that Of
an infant.
Il wonder if that's baby in there"
asked passenger on the opposite
seat of his neighbor
Sounds funny, doesn't it," said the
latter.
Then the thin little cry came from
the bag, very human in its tone.
IF that's a baby in there it's a
shame to smother it that way" added
another passenger.
Another cry from the bag.

gray-haired man who had been read

he asked in earnest tones.
'Pwhat's that" asked the woman in
rich Limerick brogue.

HAD HER NERVE.
Palisade Young Lady Who Waited on
Herself in Big New York Store.

The Indifference of shop girls was

Pa1isade young lady entered a large
department store in New York, where
she had the day before bought dress
that did not fit Being DESTROYS Of
making an exchange in a hurry she
had carried the dress in a bundle, and
walking up to the counter where she
had bought it, saw the young lady
who sold it, but who was at that mo-
ment engaged. Turning to another
girl standing unoccupied near, she
made an appeal for the exchange Of
the dress.
"You will have to wait for Miss
Smith,, she said, with naughty air.
The visitor took the reply, measured
it for what it was worth, then sat
down on a stool for full five minutes
In telling of her experience afterward,
she said:

store. The girl who had refused to

mouth, and l got out of the store
without being questioned. Yes, it was

Of Social and Local Import

Inning is in literature; not altogether
classical in its perfection, for he is
wise enough to avoid carelessness of
the commonplace and is human
enough to desire the plaudits from the
gods as much as from the parquet dill
letantes. Wise he is, because the
judgment of the gallery is unerring in
its immediate perception, while the
judgment of the downstairs people is
oftener than not warped by thinking
they know too much.

PRICE OF MILK.
Local Dealers Continue the Old Raise
of Nine Cents Excent Eichherp

The price OF milk in Palisade con-
tinues to be a subject of much con-
Germ to housekeepers. Last year, when
the price went up to nine cents a
quart, there was a mild howl, but the
trouble soon wore off. The two
prominent dealers then were Borden
and Eichberg, and the price kept up
to nine cents till last December, when
Eichberg dropped to eight cents
again. The latter says his milk is
guaranteed to be as wholesome and
as pure as any, and as all milk is sub
ject to the ruling OF the Board of
Health of the State, nothing but pure
milk would be possible. Eichberg
also says he serves pure buttermilk-
that is, milk that has actually been
churned-the kind mother used to
make.

LARGE BASEBALL
SCORES EPIDEMIC
Major Leagues Set Record Yesterday
- Probably Due to Live Ball
and High Wind.

There was a reason for the big
scores Rock Island and Davenport
made on the opening day here.
Something in the air compelled it, not
only here, but in other places. The
climax was reached yesterday in the
big leagues when in the two major cir
cults 126 runs were made and 1T
base hits secured. This is probably
a record. The Chicago White Sox top
ped the bunch with an even score Of
tallies against Washington. The Phil
lies scored l9 times against Pittsburg,
while Cincinnati made 10 runs against
Boston. which made 10; Brooklyn
rounded the base 10 times against St.
Louis and the Chicago Cubs counted
nine times against New York. Taking
the big leagues through there were an
average of % hits in each game, or Ii
for each team.
AS TO the reason there are a mum
Der of theories advanced. One is that
q cork center ball, which is livelier
than the balls used in past seasons,
has been adopted. Outfield hlts are
longer and infield drives harder than
has been usual. This might explain
the high scores taking a period Of
games, or the entire season, but 1t
hardly accounts for the big doings yes
terday. The real reason is probably
to be found in warm weather and high
winds, which favor the batter more
than the fielder. Spectators little
realize the handicap that a 30-milo
breeze imposes upon players in max
ing accurate throwing and Judging of
balls we'll nigh impossible.

NOTES OF THE GAME

Waterloo comes tomorrow for
three.
The big twirler from the west new
er let down for a minute during the
nine innings
Zeke Irwin played center for Dav-
export in place of Harry Ohland. He
failed TO get a hit or a putout.
Stevens was the star performer.
He made two nice running catches
besides scoring once and driving in
the other tally.
If that fire had started after the
terrific bombardment of the fences
Wednesday the origin would not
have been so hard to explain.
Stats had his three-sacker aimed
wrong. 1t was headed too far to the
east. else it might have cleared the
fence for another homer. 1t was a
dandy wallop at that and the only
extra base swat of the contest.
Clynes made a feature catch of
Crabb's fly in the second inning. The
drive looked good for several bases,
as It was right in the groove be-
tween left and center. 1t took some
fast running to enable the Islander
to get under 1t, but he was there
when 1t came down.
The game ended with a double
play Crangle, who opened the ninth
for Davenport with a hit, was on
first and one man was down. Joe
Kelly, the Davenport first sacker.
lined one to Heinie Snyder, who
caught 1t and nipped Crangle at
first.
Clynes' theft OF third base in the
fourth inning was clever. He played
pretty we'll off second and gave
Coleman the impression that he was
taking long chances. Coleman final
" called for a waste ball and when
Il came he hurled It to Chapman at
second. The willy Jack was beating

that the juniors would get away with
the long end of the score. The sur
prise of the meet was the showing Of
the seniors in the field events, as they
made II points in the only three held.
On the track the sophomores starred,
Kone getting four firsts out of the 80
yard dash, the 100, the 440 and the 220-
yand hurdles. Whisler's second in the
mile and Tremann's second in the shot
put accounted for the rest of the soph-
omore points. The mile was run quite
fast by Behnamann, who finished in
5:19. and Grove did well in the high
jump, beating Behnamann when the
height was feet 1 II inches. The re-
manning events, the 220-yard dash, the
half mile, the 12O high hurdles, the
relay. the pole vault, the discus throw
and the broad jump were held this af-
ternoon, and the class winning at the
end of the meet will have their name
inscribed on the cup whic / hsoffered
annually for the interclass meet. The
summary of the events last night:
50-yard dash - Kone, first; Silver
man, second; Wilcher, third.
1OO-yard dash-Kone, first; Wilcher,
second: Silverman, third
One-mile run - Behnamann, first;

il for third the instant the ball left
Coleman's hands and he was to
third almost as soon as the ball was
TO second. No attempt was made TO
get him there at all.
There were about nine Davenport
ers who had saved up enough money
to enable them to buy tickets to the
game and seats in the 15-cent section
of the bleachers and from there
they rooted. hooted and howled all
through the game. They called Del
lar a big dub because he wouldn't
let the Pretzels hit the ball as hard
and often as they thought right and
proper. They survived the ordeal,
however, and by clubbing together
managed to get back to their homes
without walking. One OF them is
still kicking because Kelly's drive in
the ninth inning was not lust one
foot to the side in either direction"
