COMMERCIAL CLUB
Is OUT FOR RfSULTS

At the Commercial club meeting
Friday evening, L. L. Spring, chair
man of the committee appointed
to confer with the council relative
to the purchase of some sort of fire
fighting apparatus, reported that
the committee had performed its
duties; that the council had grant
ed the request and that chem
ical engine and a fire bell had
been ordered from A. G.. Long, of
Portland. The enigne is of two 90
gallon cylinders and the bell weighs
600 pounds. 1t will be hung over
the telephone building, so that oper-
ators there can give the alarm at
any time of day or night. The
committee was discharged, with
the thanks of the club.
The matter of installing a water
system here was discussed at length.
All favored doing something of the
kind; but no one had any definite
plan as to the best policy to be
pursued. Finally, committee,
consisting of Ben Ross, L. l. Herr
and d. w. Shelter, was appointed,
empowered to employ competent
hydraulic engineer to make an in
vestigation and submit plan.
On motion of Mr.. Helfrich, all
the attorneys in town were named
as committee to look up the legal
phases of the question and ascertain
how much the village can be bonded
for this purpose.
The matter of improving county
roads was likewise threshed over
fully. That we must have better
highways in this county was the
undisputed proposition on which
the discussion turned. II. O. Manz,
w. D. Reynolds and L. c. Barrett
were appointed a standing commit
tee on roads, instructed to confer
with the county commissioners and
stay with them until something
tangibly beneficial is accomplished.
1t was revealed that there are
nine road districts in the county,
but one of which has been organ
lied, that of Glenn's Ferry, where
a supervisor has been elected. The
two contracts for improvements
which the commissioners let at
their last sitting, one running up
the railroad track and the other at
Rocky Bar Junction, have not been
complied with. At the next session
of the board, bids will be called for
work in all of the eight unorganized
districts. Deputy County Auditor
Siffert has drafted the form for a
bond which contractors will be re-
quired to give before receiving an
award.
The water works committee met
last evening with the village trus-
tees and talked the matter over.
They see the necessity of doing
something in this line and will
work in harmony with the club
committee. The matter of sewer
age is a puzzler, too, and an engi-
neer will be employed to solve the
problems, to submit plans and esti-
mates of cost.

still others are merely making the
trip for pleasure. 1t is a safe bet,
however, that this country will win
the color of their money before they
leave Idaho.
This is the last excursion that
will be brought to Mountain Home
this season. Many individuals have
signified their intention to come
during the summer, however. And
that is the most satisfactory method
for both buyer and seller of lands
and water rights. Large parties are
difficult to handle, none receiving
the attention that they desire.

The city council of Ontario has
granted a second electric company a
franchise for operating a lighting
plant there, in opposition to Sey-
mour Bells company. 1t would
be like taking money away from a
child to gamble that your uncle
Seymour mixes and administers to
some body a dose of bad medicine,
that will plunge the one who swal-
lows it into the depths of despair
and grief. 1t will be worth your
while to keep cases on Mr.. Bell

KUSCH TELLS A
.BELATED STORY
Case "Closed" by 0'Brien, but
Still Taking Testimony
for Newspapers.
Journal Special Service.

Milwaukee, Aug: M.-when the national
commission, the highest tribunal in the base.
ball world takes peep at the records Of
the Kelley -Lydiard case 1t will have the pleas
ure OF looking at bit Of testimony which
was not made public at the hearing yesterday.
Yesterday Louis Kusch Of Minneapolis made
statement to newspaper reporters, President
O'Brien and a stenographer which comes as
belated addition to the investigation now
being conducted by the American Baseball as
societion in connection with the Owens case
Mr.: kusch said that he was paid $40 to
say he had received 800 from Umpire Owens
to bet on the ball game. He declared that
Mr.. Briggs paid him the money and took
him to the office of an attorney where the
affidavit was made. Kusch was expected to
testify at the hearing Yesterday, but 1t is said
that friends of Lydard and others prevented
him from leaving sMinneapoltss '-rrEf-zlTcI
The other evidence is 30 weak that it is
believed that Kelley will be exonerated BY the
national committee. Unless Garry Hermann
and his associates remove Kelley, the miller
manager seems sure of his position 80 long
as control Of the club remains in the hands
OF Gus Koch, who purchased the Minneapolis
franchise yesterday. At least this was The
statement of Koch today.

The second game Of the Koch Watkins teams
was played yesterday and result the Wat
hes came out the heroic end with the
score / to 0. The play slow most Of the
time, and the contestants seemed to move like
wooden images. Kellum was In the box for the
Indians and always steady when it came
to pulling himself out of tight places. Kilroy
was the Koch representative In the box, and he
was on about even terms with the former miller.
Eight hits were made by the Watkinstes. while
the Kochs went them better.
Buck Freeman played a great game yester-
day, batting 1000 and covering the, first sack
IN fine style, two different occasions getting
bad throws from Graham which would have put
the shortstop in the error column.
Denny Sullivan and Bill Fox each made two
hits out of four times up, and Davis and Yeager
made the remaining two which made total Of
nine. Carr Of Indianapolis made the only two
Dagger Of the day, and this came with men on
bases and resulted In the winning rum -
In the third inning the Kochs nearly scored,
but Hines in centerfeld cut of their hopes
when he threw to the plate, cutting Sullivan
out. Sully had singled and went to second on
an error by Williams when Buck Freeman bit
. pretty single to deep center. The right fielder
tried to reach home, but the result out
Lefty Davis also made a throw from deep CEN
ter. cutting of a man by about three feet.
The one run Of the day came when Atherton
was passed, went to second and to third on
sacrifices, and scored double by Carr. The
game was interesting, altho slow, and but one
error was made. This afternoon the Watkins
and Koch teams will meet for their last game
Of tho season. Yesterdays scores

COWBOYS BREAK
WORLD RECORDS
Broncho Busters Do Many Stunts
that Mortal Man Never Be-
fore Accomplished.

Cheyenne, Wyo., Aug. A.-Three new worlds
records were established at the contests in con-
nect1on with the celebration Of Frontier day
here. Frank Grieser OF Pine Bluffs one of the
younger cowboys, was awarded the worlds cham
pionship in the rough-riding contest, carrying
with it a purse Of $500 and a $500 saddle.
Charles B. Irwin, big cowboy, who is rap
idly developing into one of the VESTS best
ropers, was crowned king of the steer ropers,
he not only having broken the western and
frontier record, but the worlds record as well,
having, thrown roped and tied his steer In SO
seconds, which, considering the distance run,
is truly remarkable record. =.
In the southwest where the steer is given but
twenty five feet start, there is a record Of 81
seconds, but here the animal is allowed a handi.
cap OF 100 yards, which makes the feat con
siderably better than the southwestern record
Sheriff VIII OF Fiorences Ar1z., champion roper
Of the southwest, had bad luck, but managed
to break the worlds record previous To- the
new one established by Irwin by throwing and
roping his steer in Al seconds. ..a-3- =.

Omaha, Aug. 24.-Kre1gh Collins had re-

and winning the special match from Hayes,
the present holder Of the title of middle west

singles and doubles have been arranged. The
doubles were started between Peters and Col

and the singles by sanderson vs.. Gilman. =
The Collins and Hayes special match yes
terday was about the fastest tennis ever seen
in Omaha, and Collins had an opportunity to
redeem himself for his defeat of the day be-
fore. Collins was considerably put out by this
defeat, and N. B. Updlke conceived the idea
Of offering a cup to give Collins chance at

Carsey fight in Grand Rapids recently. Outside
Influences are now being brought to bear on the
CLUB and the fighters. and unless Cans and
Nelson insist that the selected act It is
likely that man Will offciate
1t Is hardly fair that any protest should he

club managers have agreed. AS to Siler's hon
esty and ability it must be said that there is
none better in the business, and 1t ia the
belief Of hundreds here that If Siler erred In
his decision at Grand Rapids it was not because
he favored one of the fighters but because the
battle looked that way to him.
Cans Cuts His Work.
Joe Cans Is trife under the weight at which
he Is to fight Nelson on Labor day and has
cut his training work in half. The climate up
here has helped him more to get off the super
huous flesh than all the exercise he could do
He will now do road work one day and light
indoor work the next until the time for the
fight.
Battling Nelson keeps hard at his usual
rough work with two sparring partners, Lundie
and Jack Clifford. These two will go in the
preliminary for twenty rounds.
Yesterday womens day at the camp of
