Neither of the universities can boast

has been developed from big squads of
strong INC hardy candidates, two COM
binations which possess the usual cour-
ageous qualifications that have marked
the contest between the elevens in the
past. The remarkable shifts and
changes in the lineup during the past
week or ten days, while they have
effected changes in the positions rather
than the displacement OF men, have
not caused any slump in the fighting
qualities of the players.

OR|sC0LL PROVES
LIGHTNING FAST
IN BALDWIN BOUT
Outpoints Clever Philadelphia
by Brilliant Fusilade of
Jabs and J0Its.

Jem Driscoll, of England, Is the sem
sation OF the boxing world today be-
cause of his win over Matty Baldwin
last night at the Paramount club in
New York. He justified all the claims
of his admirers, and by ~outfighting the
clever little Quaker in every round put
himself in line for a championship
battle with Abe Attell. Had any de-
clsion been allowed Driscoll would have
received it. That is the unanimous
opinion. 1t was not a shade over Bald
win, it was rather a large sized cloud
which fitted over the horizon of the
Baldwin family's uninterrupted sue
cess. but there is no discredit coming
to Baldwin. He fought as good as ever,
tried as hard to get over the hay
maker that has turned so many battles
in his favor.
Driscoll was lightning fast from the
time he shook hands until the bell In
the sixth round. His left jabs and
right counters were delivered like q
piece of well-oiled machinery. He
danced in and out, peppering Baldwin
at will and rocked Matty's head time
and again with jolts that would put
an ordinary fighter to sleep. Driscolrs
footwork Is magnificent, in fact, a MAJ
jority of the great crowd proclaimed
him to be the cleverest little boy since
the days of Young Critic and George
Dixon. The story of the rounds would
simply mean a repetition of %brilliancyp
which astounded ring enthusiasts.
Baldwin fought gamely all the time,
but he was bewildered by the clever,
feinting and shooting in of left and
rights of the cleverest lad that Eng
land has ever sent over.

INITIAL DEFEAT
Of THE SEASON
FOR INSTITUTES
Local Basketball Team Loses to
CoIonials by Score OF
40 to 80.

Institute lost it's first basketball game
of the season on it's own court last
night. being beaten by the Colonials Of
New York, by the score of 40 to 80.
The am was a hummer from the first
toss-up until the call Of time. After
Captain Hill sent the sphere into the
basket, starting the scoring, the visi-
tors assumed the lead and were never
headed, although throughout 1t was nip
and tuck. During the first round the
New Yorks scored Is points to the
home teams IA. In the first period
sensational shots by Ernst and Knoch-
els aroused the crowd.
It was Lambs goal which gave the
Colorials the two-point lead at the ter
ri1ination of the first period. Neither
team changed its makeup for the final
period. and no rest was taken, as both
a~gsresations agreed to play forty min
utes straight.
Again the visitors assumed an early
lead. N goals by Studenbacker, Loos
and Brennan gave them a comfortable
margin. Hill managed to drop in sew

each of his teammates got n or more.
But for each basket the locals made in

this port of Is war vessels would

something like enthusiasm. The Wis

local ideas as to what constitutes a
naval pageant. Seven armored crui-
sers, each of them of greater length
and more imposing appearance than
the biggest of the battleships, went
to sea yesterday on a three months
cruise, accompanied by an auxiliary
cruiser and seven torpedo boat de-
stroyers, and they passed down the
harbor practically unnoticed. A small
crowd gathered at Meiggs wharf, but
that crowds interest was conferred
more on a man in launch operating
a kaleidoscope camera than on the
departing Fleet.

There are a number of Wenal che .
COPE interested in lands on Brsw .
ster Flat. This was purchased last
summer when the state sold at pub
nc auction its holdings on the fiat
Go. B. Crane, president of the
Crane Shoe company of Spokane, has
1,en figuring for several years TO
v alter this land. but until recently
there have been many obstacles il
ne way of this undertaking. The
proposition IS large one, and ID
iyulves the expenditure Of $1,000, O05
in The building of huge canal IA
mics il length, covering $4,000 a res
u land.
The project is to irrigate TIC
tract Known as Brewster flats, con
aiming some $1,000 acres of ,aL-
ami 5000 additional acres locctel
south OF the Methow river on Pale
rOs flats. All this land will be under
the proposed Methow canal which Mr..
! Crane is projecting. Mr.. Crane and
| his associates have carefully worked
out all preliminary details for the
undertaking and have arranged for
the financing of it.
! AT mass meeting of the settlers
and land owners under the proposed
canal held at Pateros under the au-
spices of the commercial club, Mr..
Cranes proposition was unanimous
ly indorsed and accepted.
This includes all the irrigable land
lying between Ophir and the Okano-
gan river and the lands south of Pa
teros on the Columbia river Mr.
Crane, in speaking of the project to
a Spokane Chronicle reporter, says:
Il am daily in communication
with E. R. Tyler, the chairman of the
Pateros water users committee; with
r. w. Hummer and my son, Earl B.
Crane, all of whom are now on the
ground, and they report to me that
my proposition meets with general ia
vOr. | have made all my arrange
ments in the east for sufficient money
to carry out the project, and l am
now only waiting for the signatures
to the contracts by the land owners.
The land, $4,000 acres in all, |
figure will cost $50 an acre on the
average, while the canal will cost up
ward of million dollars, the entire
project involving in all an eXpendi-
of over a million and a half dollars.
The work will take at least three
years for completion, although water
will be on some of the tracts within
two years.
Until June a year ago the princl-
pal part of the Brewster flats was
land owned by the state of Washing
ton, being a part of the selection of
the scientific school lands granted by
the enabling act. In the fall of
1906 | made a survey to demonstrate
the feasibility and the approximate
cost of canal to water these
grounds, taking water from the Meth
ow river, which is the only available
water that be can be brought upon
these lands"
