Pittsburg. Pa, Sept. 1.-THE statement
of one of the highest officials of the
Pittsburg baseball club that a series be-
tween the Pirates and Clark Griffith's
Washington team would not draw
enough people to make the games prof
table for the owners of the two clubs
is the one stumbling block in the way
of arranging a post-season series be-
tween the two teams.
The official n question said to-day:
NO less competent authority than an
official of the Philadelphia American
League team expressed the opinion to
me that the Washington club would not
draw big crowds at home. even with so
good an attraction as Pittsburg.
THE same official told me that right
in the midst of the fight for the Ameri-
can League flag the Senators did not
draw after We had beaten them two
games"

Amassing an early lead of three runs

TWIN FALLS LETTER

Shoshone Falls near the high-wat.
er mark is remarkable for that great
cataract in August, but that condit-
ION exists to-day. The falls are as
high now as they were during the
spring freshets and they will pro-
badly continue high for sometime.
Ten days ago the rocks on the hotel
side of the Indian head were dry and
Eagle Rock stood 200 feet from the
nearest water. Today there is a seeth-
ing, plundgingriver on both sides
of Eagle rock and the entire drop is
covered with roaring foaming mass
of water. The mist rises to the hotel
and at Inspiration point the road is
almost muddy at times.
The cause of this unusual rise is
attributed to the heavy rains in the
north and east which have filled the
streams and these in turn have con-
tributed to the rise IN Snake River.

PINGREE BOOSTER IN TOWN

John J.. Wilson, foreman of the
Utah-Idaho Investment Company at
Pingree was in town the first of the
week on his way home from Hamer
where he had been for few days
looking over the agricultural resour-
ces Of the Pingree country, and when
he went to Hamer he laughted to see
the good things lying out of doors
there. He took up the north half of
section 10, township north, range
SO east, and says he cruised around
and found some good things that he
will introduce certain friends to if
they look sufficiently 1and-hungry to
appreciate good thing.
Mr.. Wilson is so busy directing the
workmen in producing bumper crops
at Pingree that he does not come to
town often, but If there is any big
X. P. event or Doky parade he
likes to be among the boys until it is
over.
