that the power Is being sold TO the fac

Charlotte, n. c.. Sept. s.-The Ca
tawba River Is known to fame because
Of the delicious grapes which were first
produced along its banks. The beauty OF
its rocky course and numerous falls has
been the theme for many a local bard,
Sixty years ago a North Carolina writer
described its beauties, praised its grapes,
and added that the day would come when
It would be known all over the country
because its waters, then roaring an age
long protest against their own wasted
energies. would be thrown on wheels
which would furnish power TO the fac
tories OF the greatest manufacturing cen
ter Of America.
After six decades the prophecy IS being
fulfilled The Catawba Is in leash.
Mighty turbines gather the force Of the
swift river and with It drive the MAJ
chimes that turn the energy into thar
mystery Of mysteries. electricity. The
electric current is carried away across
the country to be sold to whosoever viii
buy. The far-seeing writer who predicted
the conservation of this wasted power
had in his minds eve a long row of mills
along the banks OF this beautiful river.
He could not have dreamed that its power
could be saved there and carried safely
over little wire. miles and miles. TO
supply many factories and many cities
with needed energy.
The streets and business houses and
homes OF Charlotte are lighted by the
power Of the Catawba, eighteen miles
away. The water supply Of Charlotte IS
pumped by the power Of the distant river.

Charlotte factories are run by the power
which comes over the copper wires from

Cave which the Indians Decorated.

From the Scientific American.
Two gold prospectors recently discover
ed In the Santa Susanna Mountains. about
fifty miles from Los Angeles, Cal, the
largest and most remarkable cave In
Western America. While looking for IN
dieations Of gold they found an opening
which they entered. The opening led TO
a great cavern. consisting of many pas
sages. some OF them wide. but most of
them marrow and lofty. The passages
lead into great halls. some containing an
acre, studded with stalagnites and
stalactites. in some cases so thickly that
It is difficult to get through. The walls
of one Of these halls are covered with
rude drawings, some almost obliterated,
but others still clear The drawings
represent Incidents Of the chase, showing
Indians On foot pursuing bear, deer, and
other animals. One wall painting shows
the bear pursuing the hunter. The work
Is done with a soft red stone much used
by the Indians for that purpose.

FOR NATIONAL
CHAMPIONSHIP

CHICAGO, Oct. "details of the
worlds championship series between
the Chicago club, winner of the Ma
tional league pennant, and the Detroit
team, pennant winners in the Ameri-
can league, were arrived at at meet
ing of the national commission here
today. The schedule of games follows:
Tuesday October s, Chicago; We'd
nesday, October 9, Chicago Thursday,
October 10, Detroit; Friday, October
IL, Detroit; Saturday October II, De-
troit; Sunday, October 49, Chicago.
BY agreement of the clubs repre-
senting both leagues the rules already
existing governing the playing of the
championship series were amended so
that 60 per cent of the balances from
the first four games shall form a goal
for the players of the two teams, so
per cent of this amount to go to the
winning team and 40 per cent to the
losing team.
The schedule as adopted was deter
mined by lots. If any of the games
scheduled is postponed on account Of
rain or for any cause, the teams are
required to play the postponed game
on the first day available at the same
park. If a seventh game is necessary
to decide the series in which it is to
be played will be decided by the COM
mission.

a result Of the defeat of Frank Hub

two fond hearts are sad and "A moman-
tic wedding, dependent on the success
of Mr.. Hubbard in the battle of ballots

said.

Frank Hubbard at the polls is said to
have been the means Of winning the
heart and hand of fair Cherokee wo-
man by James Davenport, the success

being one of those things stranger than

For some time Mr.. Hubbard has been
wooing one of the fairest young women
in Muskogee and the friends of both
say that an engagement, conditional or
Mr. Hubbard's being elected to con-
gress, was made, but announced only
each, Mr. Hubbard went into the cam
paign to win, the incentive being more
than mere political ACKNOWLEDGMENT

had been counted was a severe one
meaning at least a long postponement
of the marriage.
Mr.. Davenport who defeated Mr.
Hubbard. viii soon lead to the hymena
altar the woman of his choice While
the name of the woman in each case
is not given, it is said this engagement
was conditional on Mr.. Davenport's Sc
