. third place. Only on one occa sion has
he come through with a helping blow.
Milan as a hitter is at present prac-
tically worthless and it might be
good idea to shove him down in the
batting order. for he is not filing the
bill where he is now located. 1t is not
Il case of hard luck, either, for "Zeb''
is not meeting the ball with any force.
1t would not be at all surprising if
Craft develops into Il good pitcher. He
seems to have the natural ability to
pitch. Griffith has taken him in hand
and is giving him instructions in the
pitching art, and he seems to be i'm
proving. No additional pitchers are
needed on the Washington team. how
ever. What is needed is hitter or
two. Craft seems to have some ability
along this line. for he batted well at
Norfolk.
Sam Rice has gone through but one
game on this trip that he has not had
one or more hits. and in that particlI-
lar game he walked twice. Rice is
PLAYING strong game in the outfield,
and he has not had the breaks in hit
ting, either In yesterdays game he
bounded one over Gould's head which
looked like a cinch single. but Wamby
made remarkable stop and throw Of
the bail and barely nipped Rice at the
bag. Rice is developing as hitter and
fielder. and he also shows indications
of becoming a clever base runner.
Ray Morgan is another one of the
supposedly good hitters on the team
who has not accomplished much with
the stick since he came back in the
lineup. having made only six widely
scattered hits in the nine games he
has played in. Morgan naturally is a
much better hitter than he has shown
recently. but he is very slow getting
into his stride, and for this reason has
been showed down in the batting order
Griffith may be able to catch up some
of the ground he has lost to date on
this trip while he is playing in Chicago. |
Despite the fact that the White Sox
are making a strong bid for the pen
nant as a result of a long string of
games with the crippled Yankees and
the weak Athletics, Rowland's men fear
the Nationals, because they have never |
successfully hit Griffith's pitchers. |

for the tntersectional tournament. In
the second round his victory was
gained at the expense of William
Rand, Sd, of Harvard, the score being
6-2. rs. The collegian was just
strong enough to force Murray to dis
play some fine points of his play, and
the exhibition was convincing evidence
that the comet of two years ago is
Just as formidable now.
Murray swept through Rand in the
first set by forcing the contest at all
times. With the Californian's service
working we'll, and his driving and net
game approximating perfection. Rand
was on the defensive and could not flnd
much opportunity for an attack of his

the Harvard collegian a bit stronger.
and the contest was carried to deuce
before Murray pulled out the victory.
Fixman Comparatively Weak.
In the third-round match Murray was
opposed by Edmund J. Fixman, but
this time there was not much OF a
struggle to record. Fixman was hope
lessly outclassed, the Californian pass
ing him at will with a varied assort-

Some Fish Story
About a Wild Duck

Walte Fisher, parcel deliveryman of
this city, who is found at the CONNER
cial Book store occasionally. is respon-
sblc for the following fish story,
which is about the best of the season.
1t appears he went out hunting recent
ly with friend, whose name he will
not diyulge. and while the two were
north of Salem near the gravel pits
they saw a duck wing its way before
them. They shot at it and it dropped.
IL was not dead, however, and one of
the boys picked it up and stuffed it
in his game bag, which hung at his
back. The bird was not injured by the
shots fired at it and they determined
to keep it as a decoy.
After short time hunting the bird
recovered consciousness and squimed
itself free from the bag and winged its
way to freedom. The two boys shot at
it again but never touched feather
and Mr.. Duck is as free today as when
hatched. Because Mr.. Fisher refuses
to divulge the name of his companion
it is believed by his friends chat it was
he who had the duck and let it escape.

PLAN RECEPTIONIFOR

Local Woodlmen to Make Visit

consul of the Woodmen of the World

WHOLESALE
COMMISSION HOUSE
Would Have Place Where
Farmers Can Meet Mer-
chants for Trade

What may develop into a new and
profitable institution in Salem was
broached last night by j. w. Jones, ad-
vertising manager of the Capital Journ-
AL at the meeting of the Business Men s
league, when he suggested the establish
ment of what is known as wholesale
commission house, or comemrclal center
where farmers could bring their produce
and sell it direct to the merchant with
out peddling it.
This suggestion was well received by
the merchants, as they realized some
means was necessary TO bring them into
closer touch with the farmer. With such
center in operation, the merchants
would be in duty bound to get their
produce there. In return for their pro
duce, the farmers would be issued cou-
pons on any merchant they wished and
so facilitate local trade.
This method would eliminate the mail
order business to great etxent and
keep money at home where 1t belongs.
This feature, Mr.. Jones declared, was
what the merchants had to fight against
and which was doing considerable harm
to the upbuilding of the city and the
good feeling between the merchants
and the farmers. With this system in
operation, the farmers would not feel it
necessary to send away their money
and patronize outside firms.
Mr.. Jones stated that the show win
dows of the merchant and the newspa'
pers were the best advertising medium
and informed the business men that
good advertising copy must attract, in
terest, and convince. He declared the
advertising must be backed up by good
quality of product and service.
L. II. McMahon, Independent candi-
date for district attorney, followed Mr..
Jones and heartily endorsed his plan
for a commercial center. The result was
that committee was appointed to look
into the feasibility of the plan in all its
details and report back to the league.
C. NJ. Eppley, who attended the state
convention of grocers held in Pendle-
ton recently, reported that the next con-
venton would be held in Salem. Ac-
cordingly he said there was movement
on foot among the Salem grocers to or
ganize and prepare to receive the com
ing guests.
The committee to look after the pro-
duce exchange is composed of +. w.
Steusloff, chairman; VIM. Gahlsdorf. l..
