GOAT AND PEACH TREES
DISPUTE IS SETTLED

The long drawn-out contest in the
circuit court between p. M. Croisan
and W. ]. Ball was brought to a ter
mination at noon today when the jury
brought in verdict Of $500 for the
plaintiff. This is case in which, 1t
is alleged that goats belonging to
Mr.. Croisan broke into a peach or
chard Of Mr.. Ball and did damage
which Mr.. Ball alleges in the COM
plant, amounted to $1,000. The jury
before which this case was tried made
an inspection of the orchard, and
specimens of the trees were brought
into court. An effort was made by
the defendant to show that the dam
age done to the trees was the effects
Of marks made by a cultivator, and
not from the goats, which 1t seems
by the testimony, had browsed on the
young orchard.

Fenway Park, Boston, Oct, 16.-By
muffing an easy fly ball in the tenth
round, Fred Snodgrass today cost New
York the championship Of the world,
and Chrlsty Mathewson one OF his
greatest games The Red Sox, hope
lessly beaten, rallied again in the
face of this CHASTITY break by the
Giants outfielder, and finally fought
their way across by the margin OF a
run, where, with good support,
Mathewson would have drawn a shut
out. 1t was heartbreaking battle for
the Old Master who stood through the
game through uncertain support, as
only a marvel of heart, brain and arm
could have stood.
There never was a game In the
world kicked away as this one was In
the most dramatic finish ever staged,
The Giants, by clean slugging, had
mauled Bedient and Wood for two
runs. with Murray leading each as
sault. The last run came in the tenth
when Murray and Merkle tore into
Wood for doubles, and put their peo-
pie in front again. Matty had but one
round to work to win the champion
ship
Engle, starting the tenth, lifted an
easy fly to Snodgrass, which drop
ped squarely into his hands, and, tc
the CONSERVATION OF the Giant rooterf
and the wild JOY of the Red SoS
hackers, the ball bounded squarely
out, and, amid the screeching dir
Engle was on second base Speaker
lifted a weak foul fly, which Merkl'
should have eaten up, but, with Mey
ers rushing, the play was balled up
This play should have ended the bat

Every One
Paid Visit
to Eugene
Celebration Was One of the
Greatest Ever Held in the
Willamette Valley --- Ten
Big Bands in Parade

The first railroad built into city
Is always the occasion for a great
celebration The second railroad now
adays is cause for even greater jubil-
alton. The Oregon Electric has been
made especially welcome on account
of the conservative methods OF the
Southern Pacific in the past, and the
dilatory tactics of the Portland, Eu-
gene & Eastern. The latter has spent
more money in Eugene and Lane
county than the Oregon Electric, but
the manner of doing it has been un-
happy. and theSe has been constant
delay and disappointments in its op-
erations So the town was ready to
turn loose for the jim Hill line. And
it did turn loose. The display OF
bunting, the decorations Of streets and
houses was something fierce. The
people we're out for miles around, and
all the neighboring towns Joined in
the ovation to the Hill managers, who
were represented by their chief, W. e.
Comma. who had charge Of handling
the string of trains, and the demon
,strations by the Portland boosters
composed of the packed men of the
AID club and the Rosarians. The lat
ter we're all in white, and the songs
they sang and the stunts they pulled
off kept things moving. Hon. Bill
Bristol and Han. Geo. Hyland were
masters of ceremony, and G. G. Chap'
man handed the Eugene people grea'
tufts of the appropriate specific ca
loric at the park meeting, where the
exercises were brought to a close. AL
the hotels in the town were jammed
and many private houses had to b'
