county will go stronger for Stubs this
year than 1t did two years ago.
H o. Garter. B. f. Stocks and Ed
gar Roberts are the other candidates
for the legislature in Finney, but they
are not taking a radical stand on the
governorship fight, except Roberts,
who is a friend of Mr.. Wagstaff. Mr.,
Tyler is a resident of Garfield town
ship. which was formerly Garfield
county before 1t was annexed to Fin
nev. Garfield never had a representa-

vide the Garden City vote, he expects
to win his fight. He is graduate OF
Ottawa university, and also Johns Hop
l1ins university, but has spent the past

and that they are both minors.

Waterproof "Crib" for Melan

Structure to Be Sunk in Sec

USE STEAM PUMP.
STEAM PUMP.
Temporarily to Keep Out Water
From Excavation.
Hold Annual Meeting of Baptist
Church Tonight.

What is known as a "crib" is being
placed in the pier pit in the excava-
ton made for the extension of the
Melan bridge. The structure will be
waterproof. Inside the piling will be
driven for the pier and the concrete
will be laid
The Crib is 19x49 feet and will be
extended sixteen feet into the earth.
When completed it will keep out the
water which is found at a slight depth
near the river, and thus allow the con
struction of the pier. The "crib" is
made of boards with calking between
the planks. The bottom edge is sheath
ed with tin. Earth is removed from
sides as the structure rests on the
ground and thus it is sunk, in sections.
Each section is about two feet high
AS each is sunk another is added on.
This apparatus was necessitated
when the workmen struck water the
other day. AS soon as this happened,
the sections of the "crib'' were made.
The water now fills the pit to consid-
cradle depth. However, steam
pump is being installed. The pump has
a capacity of about 100 gallons min
ute and with this it is thought that
the pit can be kept free from water
until the waterproof "crib" has been
fully installed. 1t is thought that the
laying of this will take several days.

CoIored Squad and Team
mates Are Steady

Winning by score of to 9 amid
the thunderous cheering Of several
hundred of their admiring fans, the
Occidental colored baseball team
brought home the victory yesterday
afternoon in their contest with the
McCormicks.
Seaton, slightly rusty at the heaving
game from having played the outfield
on the Seattle club during the latter
part of the past season, assumed the
role of slant deliverer for the Irish ag-
gregation. His offerings, though of
the speed variety, were received kind
ly by the colored stickers, who man
aged to drop nine in the safe places
for transportation to the initial bag.
With Mooney, who was on the mound
for the winners, the contest seemed to
be a huge joke. Grinning and joking
with the batters, showing two cleaning
rows of white worries, this lanky
twlrler, besides his clever heaving,
gave a good imitation of an end-man
in a minstrel show.
When the first Of the sixth inning

managing outfielder more than came in
for the honors of the exhibition. Bill
Tozer of the Angels undertook to sprint
for home as Black nabbed a high one
in his garden. No sooner had the
sphere nestled in his glove than he
twirled it with a mighty heave to
overtake the fleeing Tozer. Accurate
as rifle shot 1t sped to Catcher Pet

PIRATES S, HORNETS o

The Hornet colored football team was
stung yesterday afternoon in their game
against the Pirates. The smokes failed to
score, and at the end of the game the score
was to 0. The colored members were poor
on interference and failed to understand the
rushes of the Pirates heavy line. The game
although won by the Pirates, was hotly con-
tested and lost chiefly through tumples
when the Hornets secured the pigskin. SID
Neighbors and the Wardell brothers put up
a strong game in the back field and had the
chocolate members laid out in pairs of two
and three in several stages of the game.
