Games Next Sunday.
Lewiston at Reubens.
Cottonwood at Grangevill,
BY Breezy Short.


Cottonwood defeated Grangeville at
Cottonwood Sunday in remarkably
fast game 2 to 0.
1t was one of those tight, form fit
ting, button-up-the-b back victories where
the joy of having won is only a shade
brighter than the realization Of having
fought so splendidly. Few fans, if any,
can bark back to better game in the
history of the premier pastime on the
prairie and, believe muh, it will be some
space of time before the lover of the
game supreme will see another contest
like it in this circuit, despite the singu-
lar coincidence of a similar score having
been ehalked up in the Lewiston Reu-
bens game on the same day at Lewiston.
Both towns were treated to big league
ball Sunday, for sure. ..
Mere wOids such as descriptive ad.
jectives, verbs and other parts of
feeble speech are really inadequate to
tell the story of the Sunday contest at
Cottonwood. The game was staged in
the record time of an hour and ten
minutes. That alone signifies that
Glass A ball was in black face type on
menu and that the stellar brand of play
was on the boards.
New Pitcher Has Goods.
Viewing the game from Grangeville
standpoint the feature was the sensa
tional work of Loucks, the crafty twir-
Ter, who held the slugging Colts to a
quintette of measly bingles none of
which were good for more than lone
sack. But not only that. Mr.. Loucks
fielded his posish accurately and spec
tacularly. Accepted IL fielding chances
without an error. Grabs onto hit
ball like tax shark and shoots it to
first always fast enough and sure
enought for a putout. Stick around,
Mr.. Loucks, we like you and hope you
do well.
Grangeville lost the game in the
opening inning when luck broke the
other way. That Is the hull story. With
runner on third ahead of him, Chies-
man, the Colts rightgardner, attempted
to steal second on the first ball thrown
to the batter. The throw to second by
Mcintosh was q perfect peg but the
pesky Chiesman managed to slide his
anatomy into its path with the result
that the ball bounded into vacant space
while Funke ran over the pan. 1t was
simply the result of taking q desperate
chance and being favored with break
of luck. And that Is always big fac
tor in baseball especially in 20 games.
Gooch Was Working, Too
Cottonwood scored again in the
fourth but the run wasn't needed, for
Gooch, the Colt pitcher, was foozling
the Frog batsmen with his smile and an
outcurve almost all the way. The smil-
ing slabster hung up the best game of
his career and deserved to win. See
the hit column and the list Of strikeouts
for further details.
In the first frame the Frogs led off
and after Brown had expired on a
grounder, handled by Rusty on third to
MacFarland on first, Branscombe and
Tiggleback famed. Funke introduced
himself with single to left and went
to second on MacFarland's sacrifice
Then Chiesman, blameitall, singled to
center, stole second, mussed up a play
to head him off and Funke scored
Loucks frightened, coax ring George
Lange to whiff and ended the cantata

GEORGE DEARING FOUND DEAD
ON PORCH OF RESIDENCE
BY NEIaHBOR.
FIND BULLET HOLE IN NECK
Absence Of Weapon Near Body Des-
troys Theory of Suicide or Acct
dent, According to Report.

George Dearing was found
dead at his place just east of Mt.
Idaho about l o'clock this after
noon with bullet hole through
his neck. Circumstances point to
murder. John Seay, it is said,
heard report of a gun and upon
investigation found Dearing's
lifeless body.
Sheriff Eimers was summoned
and hurried to the scene of the
killing immediately. According
to the report as telephoned over
by Mrs. Charles Rice of Mt. Idaho
the possibility Of a suicide or
accidental shooting could not
exist in the Dearing case as no.
where near the corpse could a
weapon Of any kind be found.
It is the theory of those who
discovered the body that Dear
ing was shot from ambush or
following short quarrel with his
assailant.
Dearing was married and leaves
widow and several children.
John Dearing, brother, was on
his way to Boise and was notified
by wire this afternoon.
Neighbors Of the murdered man
were In town this afternoon and
could advance no possible motive
for the shooting. Dearing, it is
said, was peaceable men at all
times and was not known to have
an enemy.
