The emergency was described to-

Mr. Knox viii make any speeches.
1t is not unlikely that he will go
abroad. Secretary Dickinson is a
democrat. and is not expected to
take part in a republican campaign.
Secretary Bailinger is on trial before
a congressional committee. and it is
thought wise to keep him of the
stump.
The national committee as a body
will not participate in the coming

CHIEF 0URAYS
NEPHEW HERE

Chief Mountain Sheep and party of
nine Indians from the Uintah reseT-
vation. with an outfit as picturesque
and primitive as person would care
to see. passed through the city this
morning, en- route to Delta from
Randlett. Utah. to visit their friend.
Joe Pace. They carried with them
an Introductory letter from Mr. Pace
and also a recommendation and per-
nit from Hugh Owens. agency farmer
of the United States Indian service,
which proclaimed the fact that the
party was en- route to Delta and were
good and peaceable people.
In exchange for the above informa-
, tion the reporter was asked how far
it was to Delta, and when the an
swer was given, About 80 miles" a
puzzled look appeared on the fur
rowed and expressive countenance of
the old chief. He held up three fin
gers on one hand, asking How many
sleep" The reply given him was
Two sleeps" However, considering
the fact that they have been eight
days in coming 25 miles, 1T is hardly
probable that they will be able to
make it in that time.
Mountain Sheep is a nephew of old
Chief Ouray, for whom a street now
lined with many of the best dwellings
of Grand junction was named, AMI
also the city and county of Ouray
Chief Ouray was the husband of Chi
peta, who is still alive and is consid-
cred one of the few noble old Indians
who still remain to recall the turbu-
lent days of Indian strife in Colorado
and Utah.
The old chief, who appears to be
fully 80 years of age (although his
looks may be deceiving). has not a
gray hair in his head and his bronzed
countenance is tanned and seasoned
by the suns and storms of many years
of exposure. With a paunch thai
will measure fully AS inches. he sat
his horse in a stately and dignified
manner and issued his orders in the
Indian tongue, receiving instant and
willing obedience.
There was none in the party who
spoke more than a few words of Eng
lish, and when asked how many there
were in the party Mountain Sheer
replied that he did not know.
Three lumber wagons, one of which
was covered, and three extra horses
with one colt were utilized by the
party in making the trip.

LARGE FUNERAL

The funeral of the late Mrs. Fred
c. Jaquette was held yesterday from
the chapel of Undertaken Hattie G.
Pearson and was attended by host
of sorrowing friends The sermon
was preached by Rev. Forsyth of the
Methodist church of which deceased
was a devout member. The Eastern
Star, an auxiliary to the Masons, took
charge of the services after the ceme-
terry was reached. The services were
impressive and beautiful and the
many floral offerings marked the es-
TEEN and love of the friends assem-
bled for the worth and memory of
the friend departed.

WEATHER MAPS
BEGIN SEPT.

The weather bureau had us scared
yesterday afternoon, when the big
black clouds rolled up and the thun-
der rum bled. but il was all bluff A
few drops here and "A cloudburst near
Monument canon was all that re-
suited. rf
Observer Hardinge explains the ap-
parent neglect of this part of the
country, in the rain line, by saying
that the department is getting ready
to resume the daily map service on
the first of next month and they are
not bothering mach abou; the present
weather.
When the maps are issued the pub
lie can keep closer check on the bu-
reau. so the predictions will have
to come true once in while or there
will be trouble. AS It is now, the
forecasts are made for the next day
and when that arrives the public has
forgotten what 1t was to be.
Here is the latest guess:

BIG FRUIT DAY

Today will be the largest day for
fruit shipments in the history of the
Rio Grande-Junction roads and the
Grand valley unless the calculations
of the railroad officials are wrong.
Traffic. except what pertains strict
ly to the handling of fruit, has been
pushed to the back ground. Every
engine available has been pressed
into service and every official is alert
to better the movement and facilitate
the work of getting the perishable
fruit over the road.
Today three iceing crews have
been working at their full capacity to
load the 60 cars which it was believed
would be needed.

the Side of Monument canon. For
about half hour a section about a
mile wide on the mountain side was
so deluged with water that the trees
stuck through 1t as though through a
snow bank. The sunlight striking at
an angle gave most beautiful effect.
The entire side of the mountain was
a gigantic waterfall for about thirty
minutes.

OVERALL SAYS WAGNER
is BETTER THAN COBB

Baseball fans in many towns have
approached me asking for information
as to the relative hitting abilities of
Ty Cobb and Hans Wagner" says
big jeff" Overall, pitcher of the Cubs,
in a signed story in Chicago paper.
Having pitched against Cobb in the
worlds series of 1907 and 1908, when
the Cubs scored two titular triumphs,
| feel in position to discuss the bat
ting prowess Of the Detroit star. Wag-
ner, being leading member of our
league, l have had numerous chances
to study his method. if he has any, Of
hitting. OF the two stars I figure
Wagner to be the more dangerous.
The Flying DUtc1nlan' is by long
odds the most formidable batsman the
baseball world has ever known. The
pitcher opposing Honus has just as
much chance by Whizzing the ball
down the groove as by trying a curve.
Wagner will hit anything, any place
on the lot and with tremendous dri-
wing power. Then he is source of
great worry to the pitcher after reach
ing base.
Take Cobb on the other hand. The
Tiger Whirlwind is lamentably weak
on low curve ball, next to his knees,
but not over the plate. He usually
chops at that offering. At least he did
in the four games pitched against
Detroit in 1902 and 1908.

ElNSELLA IN CONTROL
OF SPRINGFIELD CLUB

Richard Kinsella, president of the
Springfield club in the Three-I league,
has purchased full control of the
team, paying Minary and Conkling
5000 for their interest. The presi-
dent of the Springfield team is one OF
the good fellows" in baseball and has
scores Of friends in his own league as
veil as in the big organizations of
baseball. The Springfield team has
been the training school of several
stars now in the major leagues.
Training in the ThreeI having
started, followers of the game around
he circuit have commenced to make
somparisons on the relative playing
strength of the teams.
Based upon their great showing last
rear, Springfield and Rock Island are
generally regarded as strong contend
srs again for first-division honors, and
/ Is believed that both will be stronger
Than last year. The other teams have
been strengthened in many positions,
and It will be puzzling to determine
the strongest teams until the season
Is under Roadway.
The schedule of the leagues games
Tor this season, printed herewith,
seems to give no club any particular
advantage and has been approved by
the magnates, players and fans.

SYNDICATE BASEBALL"
ROW IN The CENTRAL
GRAND RAPIDS, SOUTH BEND
AND EVANSVILLE MAGNATES
MIXED UP IN ALLEGED
DEAL.

Last winter when it was rumored
that Charles P. Taft had purchased
control of the Philadelphia National
league club, there was great cry
about syndicate basebaIl' because It
is pretty well-known that the presi-
dents brother owns the Chicago Cubs.
The trouble was finally hushed up
and nothing has been heard of it re-
Gently. Now tho Central league, the
playing schedule of which is printed
today, has a fight of the same kind
on its hands. AS a rule, allegations Of
various kinds have been made against
Bert Annis of South Bend, own
er of the Grand Rapids franchise, in
particular, and against Eddie Wheeler,
manager of the South Bend team, and
Angus Grant, of the Evansville team,
in general. AS a result of the insinu-
ations and charges, direct and other
wise, Annis and Grant issued a pos
tive denial that either had any in
fuence, stock or players in the others
club, and offered to make affidavit
to that effect
When it was announced that Wheel
