BASEBALL

An avalanche of hits put to rout the St.
Paul Union Depot baseball aggregation.
They were of the kind that originate in
Missouri, "show me-" so Gaps sluggers"
gave them couple of eyefuls, in fact they
gave their jinx the gate and pushed over
victory of 16 to 9, in seven inning
contest.
1t was not one of those games that are
won because of the visitors being a weak
bunch. They came here boasting of four
teen victories out of eighteen contests and
any team that can accomplish that feat,
must be a pretty fast bunch. However,
the M. S. P.'ites earned the afternoons
pastime. Of course, there were errors, but
sixteen solid blows that consisted of three
doubles, two triples and two homers plus
stellar base running is to blame for the
sixteen tallies. NJ. Peterson was driven
to the showers in the fifth round and Sig
witch who relieved him, seemed to fare
no better. The visitors had a fast gang
of athletics, who were simply swept off
their feet by the locals in their frenzy to
shake the jinx that has been following
them of late Any semi-pro team in the
country would have suffered the same
treatment.
The game was featured with three fast
double plays and two other possible
chances were thrown away by careless
tossing of the ball on the locals defensive.
These two miscues aided the visitors to
six of their nine scores, while two others
got free transportation from third on wild
pitches and the ninth run came in from
the same corner on a wild throw.
The locals were the first to break the ice
by getting two counters in the first round.
They came by the way of couple of
singles, sacrifice, stolen base and Dill's
error. That was all until the last of the
third frame, then on base by balls, a
single, sacrifice, double, two triples
and one homer, five tallies were recorded.
Two more came in the fourth on Horigan's
error, a single and double. In the fifth,
four more tallies found their way to the
score column after two hands were out.
Two singles in succession, home run,
double and Dil's error were responsible
for these markers. The last three coun-
ters came in the seventh on a base by
balls, three singles and o. Peterson's error.
The visitors did not make single run
by clean hitting. They touched up the To-
cal twirler for eleven bingles and with
perfect defensive work they would have
been given shutout. The two earned
runs they are credited with are charged
directly to two wild pitches. They were
held scoreless in the first chapter, but in
the second, they got four runs which came
by the way of pass on balls, three sin
giles, Fos' error and Pits wild pitch. In
the third they got another run that de-

"This year will be the most sue
cessful prune harvest the state Of
Oregon has had for some time II
the weather remains good for the
next two weeks" Earl Piercy, dis
trict manager for the Oregon
Growers association, said this
morning. Should there be rain
during the harvest the prunes will
crack and a great number will
spoil. he said.
The prune harvest is already on
in full swing all over the state
and dryers are running to capac-
ity. An unusual feature Of this
years crop is that the prunes in
all parts OF the state were ready
for picking about the same time.
In the Umpqua valley the sea-
son Is usually about ten days
earlier than here but this year
there was no difference. II is esti-
mated by Fred Drager, Of the Dra-
ger Fruit company, that there will
be about 1000, 900 lbs. OF Oregon
prunes this year. At an average
Of 5 cents per pound this would
represent better than $4,000, 900
to the growers. II is expected that
the price offered some OF the grow
ers for the large prunes will be
more than this quotation. News

1t is said that quality of the
prunes OF this year will be equal
IL not superior to those ol -ay
previous year. The continued
sun and warm weather has in
creased the amount OF sugar in
the fruit.
OF special interest to the grow
ers at this time is the success OF
the multiple-fan air circulation
dryer. The Willamette valley
boasts one such dryer and Ii is
said that a batch OF prunes can
be dried in 20 hours as against SO
by the old method. The quick
drying does not seem to hurt tine
quality OF the dried fruit in the
least. BY means of the new dryer
IL is possible to increase the ca
pacity for drying almost twice.

The continued warm weather is
damaging, rather than improving,
the prune crop in the vicinity of
Salem, growers said today. Great
quantities are dropping to the
ground and, due to shortage or
pickers, growers are experiencing
considerable difficulty in hand
ling them.
Salem is far short on labor, ;"
Judge Earl Race, who conducts
the municipal employment bureau
said this afternoon. "At the pres
ent time no less than 200 prune
pickers could be used easily. Some
of the packers also have listed
with us in an attempt to get
help"
If sufficient pickers were avail
able there probably would not be
enough drying space to take care
of the crop, it was said today.
One Salem cannery, which en-
pIoyes 900 women and 100 men.
is handling between Is and 20
tons of prunes daily and approxi-
mately SO tons of pears every "a
hours. Most Of the pears received
here at the present time are from
Medford and other points in south
ern Oregon.
The effects of the railroad
strike are felt but little in this
vicinity, one cannery manager
said.
Local packers will finish with
he prunes and pears early in oe-
.ober.
The prunes are of about aver

Hope Of Rescuing
Miners Abandoned;
Crews Seek Purse

Jackson, Cal. Sept. 14.-The
race between the competing crews
on the 5000 and the $500 foot
levels of the Kennedy mine to
reach the underground levels Of
the Argonaut where Al miners
have been entombed nearly three
weeks is drawing to a close. Jack
son no longer regards it as race
of life and death. Hope for the
rescue of the men has died. Prep
arations are being made for the
removal of bodies.
Competition between the Ken
nedy mine crew, working on the
1900 foot level and the Argonaut
miners, working on the 5000 level,
has resolved itself into race for
the $4,000 prize offered by the
Argonaut Mining company to the
first crew to penetrate the Argo-
naut holdings.
This morning at o'clock Fred
Lowell, of the industrial accident
commission and secretary OF the

the work of rescue, stated that the
