L. S. Grassland made business trip
down the valley on Thursday of last
week. He reported six inches of snow
down the river.

high school lecture at Kennewick. The
subject Sane Socialism, was ably

For the third time petition has been

privilege of being included in R. F. D.
No. l. We hope for results this time.

a reason why it cannot be granted, we
cannot see it.

Friday of last week in honor of her

was pleasantly spent in playing games,

Nineteen persons participated and at

joyable time, the guests departed.
Word comes from an authentic source
that under pretense of amending the
rules governing the federal courts, a
joker was sneaked through both houses
of congress increasing the pay of the
Justices of the Supreme Court by ST.
600 per annum. We had hoped that
the supreme court would wake up to
declare some of the undetermined
Joker" processes of legislation un-
constitutional, but this last one settles
that as it is not to be presumed that
the wearers of the gowns will volun-
tarily reduce their own incomes $1,000 a
year. The. character of representa-
ton we get from our representatives
justifies US in doing a great deal of
whooping it up for them that they may
be returned.

the first game with Lin6 because the
gymnasium was not then ready; but the
high school boys will play the remainder
of the games as scheduled.

the way or thereabouts. At least it's
q factor with which the catcher must
always reckon.
Finally, Sam is a left-handed batter.
Any time a pitcher hurls a pitch-out
to catch Cobb stealing the catcher is
thrown into an awkward position. He
can't possibly be set for q throw. There
another portion of a second is lost.
These things all make a tremendous
difference. They make such a differen e
that I am one of the number who
thinks that some day the name of
Joe Jackson will be mentioned In the
same breath with that Of Ty Cobb,
and that day is not in the distant
future.
Joe has shown more natural ability
during his first yea in the league than
Cobb did. If anyone had told me five
years ago that there would be a 400
hitter in the league in 1912 I would
have declared he was crazy. II he had
told me that a ma would make his
debut in the league in 1912 and hit
over 400 l would have said It twice.
Joe is as fast as Ty In going to
first. No one a convince me to the
contrary. Joe doesn't get the lead off
first that Ty does. That can be ac-
quired. When that is acquired you'll
find little Joey leading the parade or
just a trthe behind the leader"

HEADPIN

Young fellows who belong to that
lively organization, the Frank II. Som
mer A. c., fiocked to the Iroquois al
leys last night to roll In The Star head
pin tournament. There were sixty of
them who bowled, and there was a
great flock Of rooters besides. Joe
Thomas handled the pin-knights and
performed his task we'll.
Charley McVoy, who Tailed los, was
the only watchfob winner, though
every bowler was anxious to obtain
one of the trophies offered by The
Star to those who roll scores of LOG
or better. Cooper. of the football
quintet, with a tally of 0. was the
only bowler who made no progress
toward the goal.
Thomas, the "boss' last night, rolled
II the first squad and had a score
of 90. He missed in the fourth frame
and also the seventh. McVoy rolled
with the Sommer Dramatics. In ac-
counting for his mark of los he had
twelve hits In a row. With 81 in the
eleventh box the situation was a try
ing one, but McVoy was there for
eight pins with the last ball and he
got a big round Of applause. Neiman.
of the Sommer Minstrels. who missed
in the ninth frame, was there for 81.
The Montclair bowlers from George
Haller's Metropolitan alleys, are
scheduled to bowl tonight, as are four
teams or thereabouts from John Mates
alleys.

WANDERERS TAKE FIRST
JANE IN HOCKEY SERIES.

NEW YORK, March ia series of
professional hockey games here be-
tween various Canadian teams began
last night in a match between the
Wanderers and Les Canadians, both of
Montreal. The Wanderers o 10 to Z,
their opponents attributing the defeat
to the fact that they were handicapped
because two men were out Of the play.
It was the first time that six-man
teams had been seen in hockey here.
Many of the spectators made 1t plain
that they didn't think as well of the
new Canadian plan as of the old seven
man teams.
