DEPTH OF SNOW IN IDAHO,
MARCH 81, 1911.

The month was somewhat warmer
than usual, and was the driest
March on record for Idaho. Very
little new snow fell except IN the
higher mountains. The snow disap-
peared from the open country and
from all but the higher valleys, and
was noticeably reduced in amount in
the mountains. The supply, however,
IS somewhat greater in most sec
tions than it was at the close of
March, 1910 Owing to the fact
that during the present season much
of the snow was wet when it fell
there has been less than the usual
amount of drifting. Slides were UNI
usually frequent in the Wood-Malad
River drainage area and in the wat
ershed of the South Fork of the Boise
River, but were not frequent in
other sections. Most of the snow
remaining in the mountains is COM
pact and will melt slowly. The
present prospect is for an average
waterflow in the Salmon and Clear
water rivers and the tributaries of
the upper Columbia, slightly more
than the average flow in the upper
Snake and Wood-Malad systems and
in the streams having their source
in the Owyhee and Seven Devils
mountains. and slightly less than
the average flow in the Bear, Boise
and Payette rivers, 1t is probable
that the late summer flow will be

was there any danger of their
scoring, while Payette had men on
bases nearly every inning. Pay
cite had four errors chalked up
against them, while the College had
eight.

return game and to Boise Saturday
to play them a return game.

OUR PUBLIC SCHOOLS
THE STANDARD or PROMOTION.

As we approach the end OF Jh'
school year, the question has al
ready arisen as 70 what should con
stitute the standard Of promotion
A brief discussion Of that question
might not therefore, be out OF place
at this time.
Education is the evolution Of
life into a larger life. The child
must be taken where he is and as
be is, and be influenced TO reecast
himself In larger mould than the
present Inasmuch as the present
achievements and attitudes OF the
race are the best 1t can do up RIO
the present. It's standards should
zoe taken as the STANDARD OF shn
school. OF course, the standards OF
society are moving things. The man
who can get on very well under one
Get OF social conditions might be
promptly and irreyocably swamped
under another social condition. To
keep up with the procession in the
simple days OF our fathers was
very simple matter and called for
very simple mental equipment com
pared 10 that same process of keep
ing up with the procession today.
The society Of our fathers was a
comparatlvely static society men
spent their lives under almost UNI
changed conditions OF environment.
They saw before them the same
work going on and in much the
same way. A long journey was on
10 a. undertaken after a sep
son OF prayer for safety. To tit
ones self for participation in one
OF the simple occupations was to
III ones self for social efficiency
also.
But that is all changed. The tele-
graph and telephone have knitted
widespread regions together Rapid
and safe transit has made a jour
ney across the continent matter
OF no moment. The conditions of
labor and life have changed and
are changing every day. and the
successlui man must be alert. ana

He was a man of peace, and, of
course, he had on more than one
occasion paid the penalty of the
peacemaker. He came upon two
youths in an Irish back street fight
ing. Accordingly, he pushed through
the crowd and persuaded the com
batants to desist. Let me beg of
you, my good fellows" earnestly
besought the peacemaker, ''to set
tie your disputes by arbitration.
Each of you choose a half dozen
friends to arbitrate." "Hurrah!" yell
led the crowd do as the gentle
man ses, bhoys." Having seen the
twelve arbitrator selected to the
of both sides, the man
of peace went on his way rejoicing
in the thought of having once pre-
vailed upon brute force to yield to
peaceful argument Half an hour
later he returned that way, and was
Mortified to find the whole street
fighting, while in the distance po-
lice whistles could be heard blowing
and eonstables seen rushing to the
spot from all quarters. Good gra-

asked the peacemaker. Sure sorr,
was the reply, they're arbitrating!"

mel pronounced high-o-me) should
be kept constantly on hand.
A sudden attack of Group with diff

tress is apt to come on at any time.
The course to be pursued is plain.
Send for your doctor at once and in
the meantime drop 80 drops of Hyo-
mel into a bowl of boiling water and
hold the child head over it, cover
with a towel or cloth. SO that only
the air filled with Hyomei vapor is
breathed.
This method of treatment has saw
ed many a child's life and mothers of
croupy children should see to it that
Hyomei is always on hand. Full in

A so cent bottle of Hyomei is all
you need in treating Group. This is
known in all drug stores as Extra

COMMISSION
SOON TO ACT?
Final Ruling in Quincy Three
Eye Case Expected at Any
Time Now.
CIRCUIT WILL BE THE SAME
Intimated That Refunding Of That
$4,000 Is What Is Concerning
Baseball Court

Word from the national commission
as to its final decision in the Three
Eye case is due at any time now.
Chairman Garry Hermann said Thurs
day, when he had President Tearney
and Harry Hofer of Quincy before him
at Cincinnati, that three or four days
would be required to get in touch with
the other members Of the commission.
Ban Johnson, president of the Ameri-
can league had presumably already CIV
en- his views in the letter to Hermann
reopening the case, and il remained to
hear from President Lynch of the Ma
tional by letter. AS it was at Chicago
a week ago today, it was left to Mr..
Lynch to finally decide the matter.
limitations coming from Cincinnati
show that the commission is concerned
with the refunding of the $4,000 to
Quincy. rather than with any changes
in the Three-Eye circuit. The COM
mission positively declared in the first
ruling that Quincy must have its mon
ey back in case it was not given a
place in the league, and the commits
sion decided absolutely at Chicago that
it had no power to force changes upon
the circuit. So it must be that the 81
500 refund previously ordered is what
is tying up the wheels now.
OFFERED TO PAY HALF.
1t will be remembered that the north
ern clubs agreed to dig up half of this
sum if the southerners would take care
of the other half, but Kinsella turned
the proposition down during the Chi
cago meeting a week ago 1t would be
something of a joke now if the COM
mission should decide to settle the
trouble in this way and force the gen
tlemen down below to accept the terms
offered.
However, the northern clubs still
maintain that Quincy has nothing com
ing from the Three-Eye, and Secretary
Farrell of the national board, in a re-
cent letter, takes a view along the
same lines. He declares that Quincy is
now open territory and that no court
on earth can compel the National asso-
citation to protect it. The protection
fee that was paid for the Central asso-
citation last time was for eight clubs,
and Quincy's protection went 10 Musca-

made a hit in more ways than one
yesterday. His two-sacker in the
seventh travelled to the back fence
on a line and the fans are satisfied
that he has the goods TO remain on
the Islander team.
What do you think OF Frank La
kaff? He held Davenport helpless
for six innings Saturday and came
back yesterday and beat them nice
ly in a nine-inning game. He looks
even better than he did last year.
Manager Carney evidently is an
excellent leader on the field. He
does not do whole lot of talking,
buzz his remarks are pointed and the
players apparently know that he has
no words to waste. When he says
anything he means it.
Dan O'Leary has done one good
thing with his team, at any rate. Ex-
cept for a bowlegged pitcher and one
or two other human enigmas, he has
rid the squad of its misfts and
grandstanders so that one does not
imagine he is in a menagerie when
he looks the bunch over.
We are incliped to think that La
kaff's friendliness for O'Leary help
ed the latter in the hitting he has
done in the two games played thus
far. It's all right to kid the animals
at this stage of the game, but later,
beware.
