FLOODED STOCK.

Riley Hurlbert, of Horse Spring cou-
lee, has just purchased five year old
Percheron stallion from G. S. Turner,
of Davenport, dealer and breeder ct
Pcrcheron, Belgian. Shire and Clydes
and standard bred trotting horses. Mr..
Turner is one of the pioneer residents
of eastern Washington, and no man is
better judge of horse flesh. The
animal. SignOr IL, that he has sold to
Mr.. Hurlbert is admitted to be. by all
who have seen him ana are capable of
passing judgment, the finest animal
of the class that has ever come into
Okanogan county. He weighs 1860
pounds and is pretty as picture Mr..
Hurlbert himself has had much eX-
perience handling horses. and is con-
sidered one of the best judges of that
class of stock in the county. For some
time the tendency among owners of
all kinds of stock has been to improve
the breed, for it pays, as it is as easy
to raise good animal as poor one,
and in a few years scrub or inferior
stock of any kind will have disap-
peared from the country. Mr.. Hurl-
bert believes that the farmers of the
upper part of the county will support
and encourage him in the importation
of this thoroughbred draught horse,
and they surely should, for any effort
to improve the quality of stock is a
benefit to every stock owner

HANCOCKS SHUT
OUT IN OPENER
MOHAWK WINS INITIAL CONTEST
AT DRIVING PARK BY
SCORE OF 10 TOO
YESTERDAY.

The Mohawk team won the opening
game OF the Copper Country League
series in Hancock yesterday, handling
the Hancock team a shut-out with the
score 10 10 o. The victory of the Mo-
hawks was due to the excellent pitch
ing of Hogan, and the splendid sup.
port given by the inlield and outfleld
as well.
The Mohawk team was met at tho
Scott Hotel corner on the arrival Of
its street car, by the Hancock team
and the quincy band, and a parade out
to the bail grounds was the opening
feature of the afternoons doings
Senator w. Frank James pitched the
first ball, and made good throw, but
Brewer, who was catching made
muff. The weather was threatening at
the outset, which kept many from be-
Ing present at the beginning of the
game, but as the afternoon advanced
the crowd continued to grow. Short
ly, after the game started there was a
slight fall of rain, which drove the
spectators to refuge in the grand
stand, filling 1t almost to an uncom-
Portable extent.
Neither side scored in the first two
innings, but in the third the Mohawks
pounced upon the boys In white and
began an unmerciful slaughter which
lasted to the end of the game. Cox
was taken from the box at the end of
the third, in which Mohawk scored
three runs, and was replaced by Matt
son, who failed TO check the massacre.
Iany errors on the part of the Han
cocks aided the visitors i'm scoring. Ho-
gan did fine work for the visiting team
and struck out nine men, while Cox
and Mattson famed but three each
Cox and Hogan each allowed one base
on balls. Mohawk got ten hits and
Hancock landed six, none of the latter
however coming at a time when they
would help to bring in run.
In the fifth inning il looked as
though the home team had chance
to score when Under attempted to
steal home and was spiked by Buddo, !
sustaining a cut about an inch long in |
the top of his head. Linder played out
the game but was not in his usual |
form during the last four innings. In
the last inning, Whitney got to third |
base and started for home, when |
Keough walloped a high fly To LaFlesh, |
which retired the side.
The teams lined nm ae folIowe.
