Post Season Games.

S ball fans will have an opportu-
nifty ofxwitnessins some good games of
base ball after the Central League sea
son closes, say the Wheeling News.
Treasurer Irwin, of the Wheeling base
ball association, stated yesterday that
arrangements We're now being made
with some of the strongest semi-pro-
fessional and amateur teams in the
country for games at the Island base
ball park with the Stogies after the
Central League season had ended.
Every ardent follower OF the Nation
al sport in Fairmont has expressed a
desire for games with the Wheeling
Central League team h above ar
ticle signifies hat the Wheeling nan
agement contemplates post season
games, so it is altogether probable
that the locals will get a shy at the
"Stogies."

are brought to notice. Williams, at
first base Tor Waynesburg. had only
four p%ut-outs, While twenty-siN bats

number of assists, F%airrnonr having
but sever and Waynesburs six. Fer
Fishers fielding was a feature. ac-
2cepting seven chances in middle field,
three Of them being exceptionally brill
liant. It is a curious fact that TWO
players furnished him all seven
chances, Montgomery sending four
drives TO his territory and Gamer,
three. Ginger Douglass has been
doingthe best stick work on the trip,
usually bobbing up with a hit when
needed. Wednesday his two singles
sent -four me over the plate.

TRIAL WILL TELL
The Tale as to the Aqgressor in Wat
son-BIaney Mix-Up.
"Stogies.

In our article yesterday anent the
Watson-Blaney fight, we stated that
8Blaney blamed Watson for his dismis-
sal from the Baltimore and Ohio SER
vice. We We're informed OF this mat
ter by a disinterested party, who seems
to have been mistaken, as Mr.. Watson
was not stationed in this city when
sB1aney worked for the above COM
pany. Moreover, it appear that no
trouble previous to the day of the fight
had occurred between the men.
Blaney, OF course, blames Watson
for the occurrence, alleging that the
officer was in the wrong.
Watson, as an officer and temperate
man, tells the story that is most gen
orally believed, but the trial will de-
$termine the aggressor.

Anthony Hopes Story.

Anthony Hope. while guest of Mr.
and Mrs. George Gould, asserted that
he would neither lecture nor read
from his own novels while in this
country. In former trips he INDUCED
in this means of making money and
friends. Possibly this story reveals
his reason:
1t was on one of his lecture tours
that he was asked by certain wom-
ans club in that indefinite region
known as .out West to stop over
at one station and make an address
before the club. Mr.. Hope desired to
know more about the club. and the
story goes that it sent representa-
i've to see him and press the matter
If the invitation.
What shall | tax about?" he asked
lunbly.
"Oh, anything" was the answer.
"But isn't the meeting of some spe-
cial sort, to celebrate something OF
other?" he inquired
We'll, yes" came the slow reply;

tion of the paintings of Rosa Bonheur
and the other old mistresses. But we
will postpone that for your literary

A Prospective City.

With the certainty that the
Minidoka & Southwestern railway
will cross Snake river at the mouth
of Goose creek, there is much
speculation as to the location OF
the town which it is believed will
be built on the south side of the
river near the crossing. Every
Every owner of land in that vicini-
ty touched by the railroad is de-
sirous of having the townsite. J.
K. Miller owns about 1900 acres
which the road crosses and he
would be willing to see a city built
upon his place. The road also
crosses the old Jordan place now
owned by Henry Schodde, the
wealthy cattle man. 1t issaid Mr..
Schodde has offered liberal induce
ments to the railroad people to
locate a station on his land and
that in case they agree to do SO he
will plat a portion of his land for a
townsite. Other parties, we under
stand, are trying to have the town
located farther west.
1t is conceded by all who are ac-
quainted with the situation that
near the mouth of Goose creek is
the proper location for town.
A town at that place would be CEN
trally located as to the great Mini
doka tract which the government
is bringing under cultivation and
so situated as to command the
srade from all parts of the east end
of Cassia county, Oakley, Albion
md the Raft river and Cassia creek
country.
Unlimited electrical power can
'e generated along Snake river
within easy reach of a town locat-
d near the mouth of Goose creek.
2 fact there are found all the nat
lraI auvanruSv-y--r IL 81
own of Twin Falls, with the added
act that town located at that
lace would Immediately become
he shipping and distributing point
or large part of Cassia county.
There seems to be no doubt that
large town will be located and
uilt up somewhere in the locality

Mr.. Rogers, of the Rogers Con
struction company that has the
contract for putting in the head

system, says the Boise Statesman.
He reports the contractors have
been delayed, freight having been
on the road for weeks and the de-
livery of lumber being delayed.
But they are making progress, hav-
ing some of their buildings up and
all the preparations for active
work under way.
There is a great deal of interest
in the government townsite at the
point where the railroad will cross
the river, and the engineers are
pushing the matter forward. In a
few days a meeting OF ths board OF
consulting engineers will be held
to go over the plans and they will
then be ready to forward TO the de-
partment. They have been sub
mitted to the Short Linesengineer-
ing department for such sugges-
tions as it wishes to make in con
nection. with the railroad plans.
The approval of the department
will undoubtedly be secured very
soon after the plans are sent on.
