have butted into the controversy. Daniel has claimed right along that his man Britton beat Packey at Mem phis and he has offered to bet all kinds of. money (real coin) that Jack can hand the pride of Chicago a trim ming. It so happens that Brftton is also Chicago boy, but not so much pride as Packey. Thiry, who is not Irish, can see only one light weight in the world, and that is Packey. The fans about the west want to see them get together and now the promoters are dickering with the two stars in the hope of bringing them together. They may clash in the beer city. If they do it should be some scrap. for the Mcfarland party will have an old score to settle.

GIANTS DEFEATED
 IN DOUBLE HEADER
Mathewson And Myers Leave M'Graw's Team Is San
 Francisco

San Francisco, Nov. 1.-Two de- feats for the Giants-one yesterday morning when the fans at Oakland were treated to a 12 to contest that was just about as loose as the figures will indicate, and a bang-up game in the afternoon which went to the Chi cagoans to 2-c1osed the local en- gagement of the globe trotters in Cali fornia The teams now are on an even basis, with fourteen games apiece.
 Not so big crowd witnessed the Sunday afternoon game as in Satur- days fray, but there was a packed grand stand and the bleachers were coomfrtably filled. With Jeff Tesreau in the box for the Giants and Tex Rus sell twirIing for the. Sox, the game was nip and tuck
 The errors of the New Workers fig ured largely in losing the game Jeff had poor support at times
 The teams left last night for Med ford Ore- Christy Mathewson and ''Chief'' Meyers of the Giants did not accompany the players, their agree ment with Manager McGraw having been to leave the club here.
 With Weaver out Egan played sec ond for the Cal1ahans, and Ping Bodie was used in left field. Lee Magee was at second for the Giants, but other wise the teams line up was not changed.
 Despite the error column, there were some sensational fielding stunts in view. Germany Schaefer was in the limelight in the open1ng inning of the afternoon game. He intercepted Magee's line drive with a hair-raising catch and converted it into a double play.
 Twenty-six hits were gathered in the course of the first game. Six went for extra bases. The opposing bat teries added to the merrinent with

TO-DAY IN PUGILIsTTC ANNALS

1S84-John L. Sullivan knocked out Ali Greenfield in ? rounds at New York. The Ali person was touted as a mighty classy fighter, who would tear the Boston Strong Boy limb from limb, but he wasn't feeling in a tear ing mood just then. Sullivan gave Greenfield another chance the follow ing year, and discouraged his cham pionShip ambitions in rounds Greenfield was one of a, dozen ''hopes" brought forward at that period by the anti-Sullivanites of pugilism but John L. made quick work of all of them Three of them, Al Marx, Dan Henry and Bill Fleming, he disposed of in less than a round each.

SAM LANGFORD NOT
 GETTING ANY BETTER

The arguments pro and con regard ing Sam Langford's form at the pres ent time seem a bit far fetched. The claim that Langford is not yet at his best must have been sprung by some joker. Sam will never be any better than he has been and this is better emphasized by stating that his manag- CT, Joe Woodman, expects Sam to re- tire for good in another year. Joe made this statement to me in New York few weeks ago, and he felt confident at the time that Langford would give up the ring for good before 1915. Sam has always been a great fighter, better than most heavy weights, and it is too bad he did not get the chance to measure strength and science with Jack Johnson. The latter never had any great liking for Sam's game, but now that he needs the money and can see it in a match with Langford he is willing to go ahead with it, but he has requested Joe Woodman to give him a chance to first pick up some of the soft ones. Jack has lost his pull even the French Boxing federation having vot- ed his title of champion vacant, and calling upon all boxing promoters to arrange for series of bouts, to create a new champion. But as to Langford's form again. it might be said that Samuel will hardly ever get back to 18O pounds, where he should be to be in the best of shape, for when he met Joe Jeannette he scaled a pound un- der 200, and to take off 20 pounds means some job. There is no deny ing the ability of Sam as fighter; every sporting man knows that, but they are also aware that the Tar Baby has passed the zenith of his career in the ring. Too bad that Jack Johnson did not follow the same path as Sam LangfOrd.
 Jess Willard, the hope of Tom Jones and George Rode1, the South African fighter, will mix matters at the South Side A C., Milwaukee, the night of November II when they go over the 1O-round route. It will be the first heavy weight contest held in MiIwau- kee in many years and there is con- siderable curiosity as to the outcome Rodel is one tough fighting Dutch man, having put up some hard battles against Bombardier Wells and Gun boat Smith, and the other night had all the best of Jack Geyer, the Denver white hope, ina 10-round but in Brooklyn. Jess Willard has had plenty of notoriety and will have con- siderable advantage in height and weight. He scales at about 220, while Rodel will weigh in at about 19O It will be a, novelty, and if the big fel- lows appeal to the fans there may be more of them before the winter ends

neers of 1S47 who crossed the
plains with their parents in the
same immigrant train, met here
yesterday for the first time since
their separation in eastern Oregon

men spent several hours in re-
counting the experiences of the
trip to Oregon and how the years
since the separation have been
spent.
Mr.. johnson has resided in Spo
kane for many years and came to
Lewiston several days ago to look
over the country. He was made
acquainted with Tom Bealle and
in telling of his trip to Oregon
when a boy the Garfield family
was brought into the narrative and
the meeting with Mr.. Garfield
was arranged.
"It was a very enjoyable visit, "
said Mr.. Garfield, land we pro-
pose to have a little experience
meeting that will be open to the
public. There are many things
connected with the early history
of the northwest that the younger
generation knows but little about
and we propose to secure a hall
or arrange with one of the Lew
iston theatres for a public meet
ing. There are Uncle Tom Beall,
Hank Trimble, Mr.. johnson and
myself who could tell many in
teresting stories concerning the
early history of eastern Washing
ton and northern Idaho and we
want to arrange such an affair
and invite the public to attend.

boys when we crossed the plains

ed they were entitled 10. But
this lack of attention and publicity
is partially due to the fact of the
lack of cooperation of the COM
mercial bodies of such sections an
counties with this department.
After a thorough examination
your committee would recommend
as follows:
81. That no further appropria-
ton be made for this department,
either for salaries or for general
expenses. This recommendation
is made for the reason that your
committee is of the opinion that
the financial condition of the stat
of Idaho will not warrant the ex-
penditure of such an amount of
money as will make this depart
ment effective.
80. That if this legislature
should deem it expedient to be re-
presented at the San Francisco
exposition, a sufficient appropri-
alton should be made therefor,
and to that end would recommend
that the commissioner of immigra-
tion and labor and statistics
should be retained for the coming
two years, for the purpose of pre-
pairing the exhibits for the idaho
building at the exposition, and
that in such appropriation the
salary of the commissioner should
be provided for.
"3. If no funds are provided
in any manner for this depart
ment, some provisions should be
made for the distribution of the
literature which will be on hanC
in this department when thu
copies of the biennial report are
received, and also to answer sucl
correspondence which may come
to the department in the future
and we would recommend that tn
distribution of the biennial repor
and the answering of the CORES
pondence be made a part of tn
duties Of the secretary of state
