CITY SUED
FOR $4,000
Damage Suit of Mrs. Eliza

trict Court Yesterday.

Judge w. N. Scales and At
torney c. T. Mcdonald as attor-
neys for Mrs. Elizabeth G. Shinn,
of this city, filed in the district
court yesterday damage suit
aggregating the sum of $4,000.
The following anonymous com
munication concerning the acci-
dent through which the injured
lady passed was received this
week and while all the state
ments made therein nave not been
verified by us, in the main we
find the article correct:
Jan. l6, last Tuesday week,
Mrs. Elizabeth G. Shinn stepped
on loose, rotten board in the
side walk near the Baptist church
causing the right ankle to be
sprained in most painful man.

pulling them loose from the breast
bone, and receiving other pain
full bruises. Mrs. Shinn is con-
fined to her bed and her oldest
daughter, Mrs. Lottie Jones, is
taking care of her.
Mrs. Shinn is resting as well as
could be expected. DR.. Stockton
pronounced her in pretty bad
shape, and said it would be sew
eral weeks before she would be
able to be up again. Mrs. Shinn
has been well known for almost
twelve years in . this community
and there is not one woman in a
hundred that would have work
ed as hard as she has to educate
and keep her children together.
She was on her way to work in
the Arlington hotel when this
painful accident occurred. Mrs.
Shinn has the deepest sympathy
of the entire community and we
all hope for her speedy recovery" I"

A GREAT REVIVAL.

The crowds are coming from
every direction to hear Evangelist
Taylor at the Baptist church. He
preached three times last Sunday
to crowded houses and many were
turned away Sunday night that
could not get in. Some came 80
miles and are stopping over to
get the good of the meetings, while
the people of the town, or some
of them at least, have never came
near the church and what excuse
will they have when they come
before the judgment seat of
Christi This is a time that will
never come to Grangeville again.
1t is, and will be more profit
able to this community then all
the shows and saloons that you
can pack into the town. Parents
how are you bringing up your
children? You will be held re-
spOnsible for them, and your
+neighbors that are going into per-
dition all about you. The sub
jects for next Sunday will be as
follows. IL a. M, "The Home of
the Redeemed Soul, or the Glori-
fled and Purified State of Man"
3 p. m. "An Uncomprised Cos
pei" in which the evangelist will
speak on. the false teachings of
to day, such as Mormanism,
Spiritualism, Dowieism, Christian
Science so called and other Devil
isms. 7:30 p. M, "The Second
Coming of our Lord from a Bible
Stand Point All three of these
subjects are what should interest
the christians of the world at this
time. Meetings will continue un
til further notice. Come early il
you want to get in.

K. P. LODGE
ENTERTAINS
Assisted by Pythian Sisters
Members and Friends
Have Grand Time.

The Knights of Pythias lodge
gave an entertainment on Tues
day evening of this week that
was truly in keeping with the
high order always maintained by
the lodge in all public functions
bearing the name of Knights of
Pythias.
There were present about one
hundred and eighty guests.
An elegant turkey banquet was
served by the Pythian Sisters
Temple in the banquet hall at 6 80
o o'clock and was certainly one of
the most sumptuous spreads ever
served to Grangeville gathering
The tables were tastefully ar
ranged to accommodate the ban
queters and were covered with
the most exquisitely white linen
and beautifully decorated with
cut flowers from Spokane, set in
smilax draped vases. The ban
quet hall was decorated with the
lodge colcrs, tastefully arranged.
Everything seemed order and
taste. refinement and elegance.
The viands served were in keep
ing with or perhaps excelled
the elegance of the service. Ten
turkeys and about an equal mum
ber of chickens were used i'll the
meats served, then there were
salads all kinds of salads that
are good olives. celery, roast
ed almonds, ice cream and cake
and many other good and tooth
some delicacies.
Every one was fulsome in
praises of the Pythian Sisters for
the elegant manner in which they
had carried out their part of the
program of the evening 1.-The
Pythian Sisters are all right -
was the unanimous verdict of all
those present.
After the banquet a short lit
erary and musical program was
rendered, every part of which de-
served and received the hearty ap
plause of all present. The musical
part was furnished by Mesdames
5lanville, Hattabaugh, Slusser
and Overman and Miss Beulah
Casady. RecitatiOns were given
!.y Miss. Laura Lanningham and
Mrs. G. e. James.
AT the close of the literary and
musical program w. H. Casady,
who acted as master of ceremon-
les, announced that the remain
der of the evening would be de-
/ voted to dancing, the music for
which would be furnished by the
Fuller orchestra.

conVeyances are arranged for
which make daily trips, starting
early IN the morning at the dis
trlct boundaries, stopping at the
houses along the route and deliv-
erlng the pupils at the school
house door ready to begin the
work of the day. AS many as
seven or eight wagons are used in
larger districts while in many of
the smaller ones one or two are
all that are necessary. BY the
system OF conveyances regularity
OF attendance is increased to a
great degree, while tardiness is
practically done away with. The
consolidated school is for these
reasons even were there no others,
able to do much more efficient
work than the small schools work
ing under the old plan.
1t may be argued that the cost
of hiring the conveyances makes
consolidation out of the question
but in localities where the plan
has been tried this has not prov
ed to be the case. In various parts
of the United States the cost per
conveyance per month has varied
from twenty to forty dollars. As
many as twenty-five children are
carried in. each wagon. In the
majority of eases the expense for
conveyance has been more than
made up for by the lessoned cost
for fuel, repairs and salaries. In
Kingsville Township, Ashtabula
county, Ohio, the consolidation of
the township schools resulted in
an annual saving of $3.50. In
Madison Township, Lake county,
the annual per capita cost of in
strnction was reduced from SIG
to Tl0,4S by consolidation. There
Is Il ease on record in Baitholo-
men county, Indiana, where con
solidation resulted in saving of
thirty-five dollars per month for
the combined district and there
is an example in Benton county
Of the same state where the ex-
penses were reduced by half. Many
other instances could be cited
where consolidation has not only
resulted in better schools but in
lessened expense of operation.
That the plan of rural school con
solidatien has been found to work
out in the west as well as in the
east is proved by the fact that in
sections of Ada and Canyon coun-
ties of this state where consolida-
tion has been tried the results of
the experiment have been so fav-
orable that the people would not
consider going back to the old
plan under any circumstances.
Rural school consolidation TAX
es place when county is ready
for it. In the older and more
thickly settled sections of the
United States the plan has offer
ed an agreeable change from the
old system of small one-room
schools. Good roads are neces-
sary, to make for facility in trans
portation, and reasonably large
number of children of school age
must live within the limits of prac
ticable transportation. In coun
try as yet thinly settled and un-
developed it may be that the plan
would not work out as well now
as at later date. But as author
tiles state, the fact remains, that
of all plans thus far suggested
for increasing the efficiency OF
the rural educational system, con
solidation offers the best means
Of solving the problem. CON

 Philadelphia fans believe that Pack ert and Lobert of the Quakers make the best lead-off combination in the business.
 The Highlanders have secured n classy pitcher in Heine Schultz, pur- chased from the Savannah club of the South Atlantic league.
 Pitcher Doc White, the eminent dentist of the White Sox, says he would like to get Umpire Hart in his chair once-just one.
 Tuesday, October 8. will be quite late enough to begin the worlds series in case the pennants are won in the east. That will give both contenders two days rest.

 In order to give its organization tone the new baseball Players Fra ternity should adopt Greek letters for title. For instance, Sigma Nu Lamb da; meaning slaves no longer. It was learned the other day that Russel Ford's poor pitching against the Athletic on Saturday was chiefly due to illness. Fords temperature was 10s on Wednesday, but he refus- ed to go to bed.
 The Athletics walked away with the Cleveland series with a vengeance, talk ing 13 out of the IS games thus far played, scoring 102 runs to. e1. The champions have won every one of the seven games played in Cleveland.
 One line of prognosticatdon has 1t that Ray Collins VIII be the man with whom Boston will beat the Giants, because the latter are weak against left handlers. No weaker than any club is against left handlers some days. Pretty tough luck George McCon- nell played in last week. He held the Red Sox to six hits, whereas the New Yorks made seven off Wood, yet lost. Then he held the Athletics to six hits, but lost, although the Highlanders rat tied off IS safeties.
 Owner Jim Murphy of the Water bury club has made the announce ment of the release of Pitcher Mur- ray Parker and Third Baseman Foot Ruell. Parker and Ruell are both old timers and have had one foot in the grave for some time.
 President Gaffney of the Boston Ma tionals is quoted as saying that he will let Bill Sweeney go to Cincinnati to manage the Reds if Garry Hermann will hand over Hoblitzel and Bescher in exchange. If these terms are final Sweeney will remain in the Hub. When Cleveland defeats Washing ton or Boston, Harry sends the Ath- letics, his former pals, cheerful message giving the score. When the Sox or the Senators sting the Maps, Harry has lost his pencil, the mes- senger boys are on a strike. or he can't find the telegraph office.

GENTRY-PATcHEN RIVALRY.
Recent Doines Recall Days When Competition for Horses Was Keen.

A matter of IS years ago a hand some little bay stallion called John R. Gentry was champion race pacer of the world. His chief rival was Joe Patchen, POI IA, while the best mark of Gentry was 200 1-2. says an ex- change. Both horses went into the stud near each other in New York state Gentry was owned by E. H. Hartman, railroad magnate, while Joe Patchen belonged to another rich man whose name Is not recalled. As the years went by it began to look as if both the mighty racing pacers would ac- complish nothing in the breeding world but finally Dan Patch, king of all pacers, gave Joe Patchen boost, and this season another son of old Joe, the stallion Joe Patchen IT., is boss sidewheel horse of the grand circuit, taking record of 2.03 IA with such ease the critics are beginning to figure him as having a chance to join the two minute brigade.
 The Gentry horse, in spite of the fact that Mir. Hartman saw to 1t that he was given a band of good mares, finally sending him te Tennessee, where the famous Hal pacers came from, did not sire any speed worth talking about. But now, just as he was being forgotten as a possible sire his son, Jones Gentry, comes out at grand circuit meeting and wins in 2.05 1-2, in such easy fashion the Gentry enthusiasts are predicting all sorts of records for him before snow flies
 The Hal blood from Tennessee seems to have a good deal to do with making Jones Gentry the pacer he is. His dam was a large, and exceed ingly lazy mare by Tom Webster, Ill. Hal pacer. and when the foa1 by Gentry was old enough to be trained the owner presented g. haH-interest in him to a neighbor who had a track. Jones Gentry then was coming two years old, and as soon as harness wise he could pace a streak, so impressing a New Yorker who spends his winters nthe south that he induced a friend to buy him for $1,000. As a three year old, Jones Gentry started three times, always winning, and his record was PIP 1-4, made over a half-nile track This convinced his trainer the colt was good enough for any society, so he dropped in at Cleveland with him and won in 2.05 1-2. the odds in the auction pools and pari-mutuels being better than 20 to 1.

fans than Cobb. Prsonally I am well acquainted with Ty Cobb and admire him very much. I draw my conclus- ions from what I have Seen and heard. or the two players in the eight cities that have American league teams. The Boston club Is the best ball team that was ever developed in the Amer ican league. I think that the Red Sox club is without a peer. Wood is greater pitcher than Walter John son. Wood heads a grand pitching staff that is working perfectly for Stahl The Boston club, you might say, is devoid of star players. Speaker and Wood are both great ball players, but 1 do not class them as individual stars because they are working for the good of the club every minute they are on the field. The Boston league club is the greatest of all Am erican league clubs. because it is evenly balanced without anw individ- ual star performances to upset the even tenor of its way.
 T am of the opinion that Stahl has better chance than McGraw in the worlds series. The Boston club is stronger all around than the Giants Washington was touted as the best club to meet the Giants in the world SS14CSs I<NclyDOOy lB urea. on waiter Johnson winning the series for Wash ington- But think Wood Is the bet ter pitcher of the two, therefore Wood will figure very strongly in the big series.
 T have 2S players on my club and cut of this number I expect to keep 16. most of them young players. I also have a number of other recruits com ing at the end of the minor league sea- sons The St Louis club of 1913 will bo wonderfully strengthened club. I am assured of that now, judging from the present performances of some of the new players I have picked up. I figure on finishing not lower than fourth next year. The fact that my 1913 club will be very young one will give me an advantage over sev- eral of the other clubs that are carry ing old timber. I realize that it will take me two or three years te whip the youngsters into shape, but I am satisfied with the outlook.

TWELVE YEARS OF SERVICE.
Eddie Plank Still Has Lots of Stuff
 on the Ball.

Not to Eddie Plank, the star south paw of the Philadelphia American league team, can the failure of the club to win another championship be at tributed. In his twelfth year as a member of the team Plank Is now pitching the finest ball of his career. He has passed the goth mark in vict tories. and is second only to Joe Wood pitching mainstay of the Boston Am erican league club. leader in the race. By his remarkable work, Plank is set ting a new record for southpaws. Portsiders have always been notofi- ous for their unsteadiness, and, as 8 rule, most of them have not lasted many years in fast company. It is the theory of some experts that the increased strain on the heart from pitching with, the left arm accounts for the conc aratively brief stay of left-handers as compared with their right -hinging brethren.
 But Plank is a refutation of this be- lief, He came to the Philadelphia team from college, being a Gettysburg student, He has never been with any other professional club. During his twelve years as a Mackman he has been the mainstay of[he team, he has taken part in many vicious pennant races, has been 8 member of four championship teams, and today is sound as ever, In the experience of this splendid veteran Is an excellent lesson to young players that 1t Is good business to take care of oneself.

DULL AND sTAeNANT.
Market Shows None of Strength of
 Previous Day.

New York, Sept. 10.-Very little re- mained today of the strength and ami nation which attended yesterdays late market on publication of the brillianA crop report. The average level was higher at the outset but. in the early afternoon dullness gave way to utter stagnation. In the final hour, when call money rose to 4 S-4 per cent, the highest rate of the year, prices fell to the lowest of the day, but without any increase of activity.
 On the surface there were no indi- cations of pressure Sentiment if any thing seemed mildly optimistic in the early dealings, this change probably resulting from the growing agricul- tural prospects.
 Other news of the day also offered ground for encouragement, especially the thrilled tonnage figures of the United States Steel corporation for August, which showed an increase of 2O6,O0 tons over the preceding month, and established a new high record in the history of the company. Steel shares made no perceptible response .o the statement, which exceeded the most sanguine expectations.
 None of the speculative favorites moved more than fractiona1ly until in tne nnaI dealings, all wider f1uctua- tlons being made by the various spe- cialties, such as International liar ve5ter. Mexican Petroleum, one of the days most active issues, and several of the erstwhile subsidiaries of the American Tobacco company. Those issues registered maximum advances of to 12 points, with a 15-point rise in General Chemical.
 Americans were steady in London, but that center later sold moderately here Withdrawal of $1,5oo,OOO gold through the Bank of England for ship ment to Egypt and further purchases Of the metal by Germany were without effect on London discounts, which were easier with money in abundant sup ply.
 The local bond market shaded after early steadiness. Total sales, par value, amounted to s1,429, ,0OO
 Panama threes advanced 1-4 Der cent. on call.
