Reubens no game arranged so
far.
Last Sunday Grangeville rest
ed on her oars, owing to the fact
that Ilo-Vollmer phoned at the
last moment that there would be
nothing doing at that place, that
team not having been reorganiz-
ed since the Fourth. The local
team was sorely disappointed at
this news, as the boys had been
doing honest drilling, and with
the three new members which hao
been added, felt that they were
in condition to successfully cope
with the best the Prairie affords
in ball playing Next Sunday,
however, they will have the OPP
portunity to test thir prowess on
Nez Perez, which is now several
lengths in the lead of all other
teams, but they are not in the
least nervous over the coming en-
counter, in fact court it.
A good deal of phoning was
done Saturday and Sunday by
Manager VanDeventer in an eff
fort to get the Fort Wright col
ored team to make an engagement
at Grangeville and Nez Perce for
Tuesday and Wednesday, follow
ing right after their game at
Lewiston ON Sunday. But it
could not be done, their leave
of absence only extending to
Monday. The Fort Wrighters
lost to Lewiston by a score of 2
to 3 in a very interesting game,
no score being made by either
side after the first innings. Lew
iston is greatly elated over their
victory, and the Spokesman-Re-
view correspondent says the team
at that place now boasts that they
will proceed to clean up the en-
tire Prairie League in regular or
der. That is most welcome news,
and the Grangeville bunch ac-
cepts the challenge to settle the
matter at close quarters in SER
les of games, most any old time.
1t is understood that NeZ Perez
also has a hankering to try con-
clusions with the banana eaters
and there may be other proud
ones who desire to be shown. The
Lewistonians do not have to i'm
port Spokane players to furnish
them amusement Grangeville has
had a standing invitation to them
for two years, and it is still IL
force.
Nez Perce II; Reubens 8.
Nez Perce took Reubens into
camp last Sunday by the very un
even score of II to 3; but the re
ports state that the game was
much better than indicated by thu
score. This now places Nez Perct
decidedly in the lead of all pen
nant competitors, and places Reu
bens in the fifth position in thu
percentage column. The batter
les were: Reubens-Henry, Whit
and Cleveland. Nez Perce-Jer
Wis, Stellmon and Mulholland
Umpire, Shelter.
Winchester IL; Cottonwood 4.
The game between Wincheste
and Cottonwood, played at tn
b former place last Sunday, was dc
cidedly one-sided, and is said t.
have been abandoned by the lat
ter after the firearms bunch hat
secured the great lead on then
without completing the full min
innings, the score standing II t
4. This places Winchester in tn
third place between Grangevlll
and Cottonwood. The batterie
