With the recent victory over Sc
attic, the hated rival, to encourage
them to greater efforts, the quartet
who are expeced to bring home the
bacon in the Portland-Spokane in
terclub smoker scheduled for this
city on December 10, have started
on their season of training that will
send them into the ring fit as a
fiddle for any kind of contest.
Jack Kaye, Is FOUNDER, is not go
ing to take any chances this time
and has started in training for his
second battle with Dranga, the
crack Portland scrapper Jack de-
feated Clark of Seattle at a former
meet and moderated his opponent,
losing because Of his poor condi-
ton. Kaye is confident that he can
defeat Dranga for. the second time
and in even more decisive style
than that which marked his early
appearance in the ring.
Kaye will take no chances this
time, however, and is determined

made no error when he decided to
enter the man who has two defeats
to his credit this season.
Red Hughes will be given his
first crack at the interclub game,
and the midget whirlwind is a hot
favorite over Hughey, his 105 pound
opponent. Hughey won second
place in the P. N. A. meet last year
but those who have seen the two
in action declare that Red is the
faster of the two and has a SITTER
! kick.
George Brechin will have the
I hardest struggle of the season
when he goes up against Nose. the
1876 FOUNDER who defeated the P
N. A. champ in an exhibition las
year, but third victory is on the
! cards and Brechin is "one fighting
sont of a gum" as one enthusiastic
fan expressed it.
Gesek will have two good hands
by December 10 and the Portland
1853 FOUNDER will have to go some
if that event is cOrnered. Chris
will not be under the necessity o

Drawn versus aggressiveness.

Drawn versus aggresSlVenesS.
From appearances this will be
the lineup at Recreation park
Thursday afternoon when the
heavy Wenatchee huskies meet the
South Central Hi boys.
Wenatchee will outweigh the To-
Gals many pounds to the man, and
with more veterans than the locals
can boast of, the apple district
champs are confident of anneXing
the Turkey Day game.
On the other hand, Kennedy has
taken a bunch of raw youngsters
and whipped them into such shape
that they held the Broadway Hi
team down to a lone touchdown,
their aggressiveness and indomita-
BILE fighting spirit almost prevail
ing against their heavier and more
experienced opponents.
1t is true that the same lads
fell down woefully at Seattle
against Lincoln Hi, but this has
not discouraged the men, and Wen
atchee will go up against a most
determined lot of youngsters
Thursday Afternoon.
The locals will be weakened by
the loss of Edris, clever kicker and
line smasher, who has bad knee.
Durham will be switched from
quarter to half, Pynn replacing him
at the helm. Dewitt Thompson

the other fellow to win. At Smiths

of the players and the plays made
by them against Idaho and Whit

Borleske at their head, on Thanks

is making great preparations for
this game, and it will take a great

to be repaid for the large outlay
which he is making in money and

terday afternoon will probably pre-
vent him from playing Thursday
against w. s. c., game which he
was looking forward to as the last
of his college career.
From his freshman year, in 1906,
when he made the varsity, Borleske
has been spectacular figure in
practically every game for four
years. Last year he was given a
place on the All-Northwest eleven
and chosen captain of that formid-
able mythical aggregation.
Another Spokane man scheduled
to play his last game Thursday is
Ralf Mathews. the Whitman right
guard. He also will be numbered
among the 1910 graduates.
Whitman will lose three other
men this year, Clarence e. Morrow
left guard, Walla Walla; Harry l..
Wilson, left tackle, Idaho Falls;
George Oldright, right end, Walla
Walla.
1t is believed that Borleske will
be retained by Whitman next year
as assistant coach. Coach Blan-
>chard practically turned the contro!
of the eleven over to Borleske this
year and was fully justified in the
confidence bestowed on the Spo-
kane lad.

FOUND A GEINKGO LEAF

Spokane, Wash. Sept. 20 Scien-
lists ethnologists are said to have be-
come much interested in the finding
by Prof. T. A. Bouser of Spokane Col
lege of geinkgo leaf buried near
Spokane. Prof. Bouser declares this
confirms the theory that North Amer
lea and Japan were connected by
land centuries ago, adding:
THE geinkgo is distinct among
plants in that 1t is without near rela-
tives. There is only one genus and
one species of 1t extant and this Is
found only in Japan. While to the
layman the finding of the geinkgo
buried deep in the soil means little
or nothing, to scientists it is a very
important discovery confirming the
theory that some time in the dim past
this continent and Japan were con-
nected by land"
Prof. Bouser believes that other
evidences of the prehistoric physical
junction of Asia and America can be
found in the Columbia river basin.

NEW BERRY PRODUCED

Scientific men are busy with the
laws of creation, and are getting val
liable results. The seedless raisin
and seedless orange, the thornless
castus, the ordorless onion. the thin
shelled watermelon are evidence of
recent application of new ideas to old
laws of growth. The following para
graph from Burbanks writings tells
how new berry was developed from
two plants whose fruit was not edible.
by crossing the great African
'stubble berry (Solanum gnlncnse)
with our Pacific Coast rabbit weed
(Solanum villosum) an absolutely
new species has also been produced
the fruit of which resembles in almost
every particular the common blue
berry (Vaccininum pennsylvanicum,)
and while the fruit of neither parent
species is edible, the fruit of the new
ly created one is most delicious and
most abundantly produced, though
produced by the million, still all come
as true to the new type as do either
parent species to their normal type. y

BRADY SUGGESTS "A CONFER
ENCE

Seattle, Wash. For the purpose
of getting together on the question of
rate regulation, Gov Brady of Idaho,
suggests conference of the railway
commissions of the three states max
ing up the Northwest; viz. Washing
ton, Oregon and Idaho. He wants to
see a common basis adopted, that will
insure this section of the country
practical independence from the rail
ways and the Interstate Commerce
commission. BY taking time by the
foreleck now, Gov. Brady believes
steps can be taken to organize COM
merce, SO that the Northwest will
reap substantial benefits from the
Panama canal. This proposal is of
particular interest because of the
coming sessions of the Interstate
Commerce Commission in Spokane
Seattle and Portland, early next
month. New York merchants have
filed protest against the preliminary
decision in the so-called Spokane Rate
Case, which may be considered fur
Their at the coming hearings.

A NEW CRAZE

The alleged discovery of the North
Pole has had one deplorable result 1t
is true, it has had no effect upon the
stock market, but it has caused the
outbreak Of new craze. Some enter
prising concern has put in the market
North Pole Eskimos,' a sort of fuzzy
doll supposed to represent an Eskimo
in his fur garments. There is close
resemblance between the North Pole
Eskimos" and the Teddy Bears" of
former seasons and justified suspic-
ion that the concern has utilized the
remainder of it's stock of Teddy Bears
by Transforming them into Eskinmos.
However that may be, the new toy
sells like hot cakes and there seems
fair prospect that American childhood
will undergo another severe spell of
toy monomania, as taste-corrupting as
the Teddy Bear craze.-Ex.

EXPOSITION NOTES
From the Official Reporter Of Idaho
For the A.-Y.-P. EXPOSE
ton.

Seattle, Sept. 22.--Idaho has been
doing good work in having such a
good representation in products and
delegations at the Seattle exposition.
The coming of Governor Brady for
the second time was highly appreci-
ated by all who are interested in max
ing this fair success. Every Idaho
official on the grounds is shown the
courtesy and good heartedness in
every way by the management, and
their duties are filled with pleasant
experiences.
The Chief Executive has been made
doubly welcome. One of the highest
honors which has come to Idaho was
the invitation, semi-official in char
acter, which was extended to its gov
ernor and his staff to visit the neigh
Dor city of Victoria in Canada. Prem
Ter Mcbride extended this invitation
in social way as it is not customary
for Canada to establish other rela-
tions with the governors who are in
the neighborhood of their cities. Ar
irving at Victoria Saturday morning,
the guests were shown to the offices
of Premier Mcbride. The House of
Parliament was visited after which
the party was given ride about the
city. A most elaborate luncheon was
extended in honor Of Governor Brady
by the Mems club of Victoria at
which Premier Mcbride and Cover
nor Brady made stirring speeches. He
returned to Seattle in the evening.
Exhibitors day was one of lively
interest all day at the Idaho build
ing. The plan of the day was that
every person entering the grounds
was given a coupon which drew a
prize. The prizes were donated by
the exhibitors and were something
which was being displayed. Idaho on
this day gave away 1000 prizes con-
sisting of fruit, peanuts, souvenir
mineral paper weights, badges, and
honey.
This is Walla Walla day and the
Idaho building was one of the places
chosen for visit, Headed by the
Scotch band the parade of Walla Wal
la people carrying banners and bal
Ions entered the building, passed
through it and marched out again.
Idaho gave the Walla Walla yell for
her guests and they responded with
the Idaho cheer.
The display of the produce which
is grown in Bingham county is at
tracing much favorable comment.
The honey and grain cannot be ex-
celled. A recent shipment Of Swedish
Select oats was SO fine that NJ S. Nc
Coy, who has charge of the exhibit,
had them weighed on the city scales
which showed them to average 49h
pounds to the bushel. The oats were
raised near Idaho Falls.

A GREAT OPENING

President Taft, on Thursday at
Montrose, Colorado, performed a
spectacular act in the reclamation
service that is doing such great things
for all this arid region: he touched
the button which started the flow of
the Gunnison river through the great
tunnel which now diverts that tsream
to the lands of the Uncompahgre val
ley. The Gunnison river flows through
a narrow gorge, and is big stream.
Six miles over the high and rugged
mountain chain lies the Uncompahgre
valley, broad, fertile, but with little
water. The Gunnison carries album.
dant water, but there is little land to
use it upon. The reclamation service
in it's enormously Difficulty surveys
found favorable location where, by
cutting a tunnel through six miles of
the range, the Gunnison waters could
be diverted to the UnGompahgre val
lev. The building of this tunnel was
begun as soon after the passage of
the National Irrigation law as was
possible upon the making of the
necessary surveys; the work has been
going on steadily for four years, and
the Presidents visit was opportune in
allowing the formal turning in Of the
waters to be by his hand. 1t is
wonderful project, one that has been
deemed practical, however, since the
settling of the country. But the ex-
penditure was enormous, and no pow
err other than the Nation was able to
thandle the great project and to deal
with the land problem involved. The
happy solution came with the inaugu-
ration of the reclamation policy, and
in one of the greatest of reclama-
ton schemes meets its entire success
in the visit and the act of the Presi-
dent.
TIE Uncompahgre valley has been
!, noted for decades'for the wonderful
fertility of its ISL, and for the fine
davor size, anR coloring of the fruit
tSsre grown hnder the irrigation of

the great expanse OF the valley NOW,
However. 100000 acres OF arid land
are IN he reclaimed from their desert
condition by the use OF the waters OF
tha Cunnison river; that means eleven
townships of thirty-six sections each.
The reclamation of such body Of
,a5 &c tbis Is important to the whole
State of Colorado; it is immensely en-
& raging to the reclamation service
