Newsy Notes From
the Sporting World

despite the purchase 1t was discovered
that Missoula had waiver on him
and he was withdrawn from the Irri.
gators. Gimlin is also without Carl
King, his alternate catcher. having
traded him last night to La Grande
for Scott, the hard hitting backstop
who captained the Pippins last week.
Gimlin states that he will work Scott
in the outfield this week.
The Buckarooes enter the series
with only three pitchers and short
an outfielder, Jimmie Mensor being
troubled with an abscess on his foot
which will keep him out OF the game
for a couple of days. He had it lane
ed last night and left this morning for
Pilot Rock out from which burg he
will spend his vacation angling.
That La Grande with the services
of Jack Barry as manager, will soon
start on an upward climb is the pre-
diction of Gimlin. While in La
Grande for a short time last evening,
Gimlin declares he was given to un-
derstand that the fans of that city
have subscribed $4,000 in cash and
intend spending it all on team.
Barry himself draws 5000 a month,
he states. Just how the Union county
club can be thus lavish and make a
pretense at staying within the salary
limit is not explained at this time.
Gimlin declares he is now $50 under
the limit and intends to remain under
$500 whether he wins or loses. MY
club will not stand for violation of
this provision" he declared this
morning. Il was told to get anv
players l could with that amount of
money but if more were required to
leave them alone"
The Boise team is accompanied by
Green, the sporting writer of the
Boise Statesman, and to him the East
Oregonian is indebted for the follow
ing batting averages for the Boise
players during the last two series:

BLAMES II. Il. FOR LYNCHING:
CARRIES MOB TO GET MAN

Washington, d. C.-Whether a rail-
road that carries mob to town to
lynch a man is liable to damages to
the vistim's widow and children is a
unique point to be brought before
the supreme court of the United
States. The case will be preented to-
morrow, with a request to review.
Mrs. Annie May Rogers and three
children sued the Vicksburg, Shreve-
port e Pacific Railroad company on
charges of having carried by special
train a mob from Monroe, La. to Tai
lulah., where Rogers was lynched. He
had been charged with numbering a
man and was about to be released on
the ground that he had been tried
once before on the charge.
The lower federal court held that
as a matter of law the railroad might
be liable.

Salary Is Fancy.

Seattle, Wash, June 1I.-That Bar

the La Grande club came as sort of
surprise to himself and his friends In
fact, he hardly expected that his of

ago telegram came from the own
ers of the La Grande club which
Is in league composed of Walla Wal
IA, Pendleton and Boise, asking him
for his terms. Without giving the
matter much thought, Barry had a
reply sent naming ~ather fancy SAL
airy and calling for some ready cash.
The next thing ne knew he was
snapped up by wire and the cash was
on its way to Seattle. The upshot of
the matter was that Jack left to take
charge of his new club. His family
will remain in Seattle tfor the pres

PLANS TO TEACH FARMERS
Secretary Wilson Announces Agricul-

MISUNDERSTANDING of Agricul-
ture Wilson has ann bounced plans for
farm management study and work in

congress have made provision in the
agricultural appropriation bill. This
plan, on which the secretary and DR..

plant industry, have been working for
several months, corresponds to the CO
operative demonstration work in the
south.
The federal government, through its
agents, who will act in cooperation
with state and local inspectors, pro-
poses to make comprehensive study

When the ceremony of examining

Moose of Unequal Size Had Battled
Long, Years Ago In Alaskan
Woods.

Seattle, Wash.-A story of woodland
tragedy not hard to read is told by
pair of weather beaten interlocked
moose antlers that Billy Kramer OF
Fairbanks, Alaska, has just brought
down and placed on view here, the
story being that of one moose who
died Of a cut throat, while the other
persisted Of starvation. The horns
were discovered on Hoppe creek, a
small tributary Of Small Wood creek.
Part Of the prongs were deeply buried
in. the earth when found.
One remarkable thing about the
horns is the peculiar structure Of the
larger pair, which resemble those of
European elk or of the ancient Irish
elk far more than they do a set OF
moose horns. In fact there is almost
no pa1mauon, while the prongs are
long and large. More singular still
under the main beams, where the
palms should be, are a series Of large
prongs, giving the horns a sort Of
double deck appearance, and 1t was
these superfuous prongs that proved
the undoing of the larger moose, fo'

Examination Of Standards for
Weights Is Completed.
Box 10 Dug Out Of Masonry and Once
Every Twenty Years Treasured
Relics Are Examined by
Noted English Scientists.

Loudon.-One Of the queerest and
most important OF all the ceremon1als
that are gone through with in TINS
country one, too, that comes OH only
once in twenty years-has just taken
place in the presence Of some OF the
Hottest big-wigs of the state.
This ceremonial consists OF I'M
earthing and examining the contents
of an extraordinary box buried IN the
masonry which forms the public stair
case of the house OF commons, and
thereby checking the weights ana
measures used IN Great Britain.
To get at the box, which Is Of oak,
nasons had to pull down part OF the
wall Of the staircase Then, after the
casket had been exh,1med and Its
unique contents exalniised with infinite
care by band OF scientists, 1t was put
back In the cavity Of the wall, which
then was built up and will not be dis
turbed again until May, 1882.
That box contains two pieces Of
metal. One is a cube Of platinum
measuring only one inch along each
side; you could buy another like It for
about 5000, but this particular cube
has value beyond all other pieces OF
metal.
The way in which 1t is guarded
gives some idea OF it's worth. 1t is
wrapped in a specially prepared paper
uncommonly soft in texture, which Ii
laid in another silyer-gilt case. This
case goes into another, made Of stou
