Ambition to Round Horn as Com

Baltimore, Md.-With his wife ac-

satisfy his ambition to round the
Horn in square rigged Yankee clip

will serve as one Of the crew of the
Dirigo which will sail for Seattle with
a cargo of coal this week.
When London married his pres
ent wife in Chicago in 1905, he had
been divorced just one day. The IL
linois statute provides that divorced
persons must remain unmarried one
year following the granting of the di-
vorce, and it was declared that Lon
don's second marriage was Illegal
until Judge Julian w. Mack, now a
member of the commerce court rul-
ed that the law did not apply to per-
sons who came from other states and
were married in Illinois.
London declared before this deci-
sion was made that he would marry
Charmion Kittredge. his bride. in ev-
cry state in the union If that course
would make their marriage immune
from attack
Many of London's stories have dealt
with the sea and with sailors, quite
as much as with love affairs, and in
his writings are included several ex-
pressions of sentiment supposed to
relate to one or the other or both of
his wives.

A CITY BASEBALL
LEAGUE IS FORMING
TWO TEAMS ARE ALREADY
ORGANIZED FOR GAMES
o.-W. II. S n. Employees and Local
lodge of EllSs Have Entered Field
ana Others Are Expected to Follow
in Near Future.

Not only is it very probable that
the city will see league ball this sea-
son but it is also likely that number
of local amateur teams will disport
themselves on the diamond. Already
employees of the O.-W. r.. & n. COM
pany have organized. the Elks are
planning on putting a team in the
field and ii is predicted that other
teams will be formed to perfect a
city league. 1t is the intention to ar
range games for the Sundays on
which the league team is absent
from the city, thus enabling local
fans to see one game a week.
The railroad employees met last
night and perfected an organization
which issues bold def to any other
bunch Of horsehide beavers in this
vicinity. The battery will consist of
Joiner, telegraph operator, catcher,
WiSsler. bill clerk, pitcher. Walter
Rose, cashier 1st base, Babe Beam,
freight warehouseman, short stop,
r J. Brush, transcontinental freight
inspector, End base, Pat Mckee.
yardmaster, Srd base. Less Barr, car
clerk, right field. Copeland, baggage
clerk. center field. and Bill Dietz,
night ticket clerk. left fielder. All
of the men have had experience in
the national pastime and, inasmuch
as all are off on Sunday afternoons,
they were encouraged to form and
thus secure a little recreation.
The Elks are much interested in
the organization of a team in order
to raise money for their trip to the
Portland convention. With Keefe
and Sturgis as a battery they will
have a nucleus for a classy aggre-
cation. It is their purpose to play
not only local teams but to meet
Elk teams from Walla Walla, La
Grande and other cities.

Things Fish Can See.

1t is doubtful if fish can distinguish
forms outside the water, but they un'
questionably can see moving objects
at considerable distance. Their in
stinct teaches them to fee from
strange moving things and from shad
ows thrown on the water by persons
moving along the waterside or by
birds flying over The proof that they
cannot see the outlines Of forms suf
fciently well to distinguish between
animate and inanir ate objects, is that
they will show no more fear of an
angler standing perfectly still in the
water, than they will of tree or other
harmless object. That their sight is
keen in the water is evidenced by the
fact that game fishes, that prey on
their fellows, do much of their feeding
at night, pursuing and capturing min
nows and other small fish in deep,
dark holes.
