Weeks, Gives Good Account Against
Fast Opponents.

Twin Falls athletes were defeated
Sunday at the ball park when the
American Falls team won by score
OF II to 3 in a game full of sensa-
tional plays. The local team played
it's first game of the season with but
two short weeks of practice for col
lege and university men who have
been out of the game for years, who
could not in that short time round in
to good physical condition Even at
that the American Falls players stated
after the game that it was the hard
est battle they have encountered this
year. On the other hand American
Falls has played in several games
this year and won all by much heavier
scores. Their experience and splen-
did team work was responsible for

A. Whitcome was attacked by a high
Waysman and escaped serious injury
and financial loss through shere good
luck. Mr.. Whitcome was driving
home in lumber wagon and was
about opposite the packing plant south

iron brace for the tailboard, was lying
in the wagon, showing the nature of
the attack. The sheriff's office has no

last, with the man fairly we'll COW
cred, save for his boots and hands,
which were stretched out.
The lioness now moved off about
five yards; then turned and came
back, stepping very lightly, for all the
world like an enormous cat. She had
another sniff, which apparently satis-
fled her, for she went off again, this
time little farther but only to re-
peat the process I could see her
object now. She evidently had her
cubs somewhere near, ana was going
to bring them to dinner, but wished
to protect her prize meanwhile.
The brute's next journey took her
about hundred and fifty yards from
me, so l determined to fire, trusting
to luck to get in another cartridge In
case Of a miss. So, Just when she
turned to come back for another look
at her prey, I pulled the trigger. L

ing to fix her in one shot. The mo-

coat roll over, rise to his feet, stag
ger towards me. Then / turned my
attention to the lioness. I could see
she was hit, for she was sitting on
her launches, roaring like ten lions
in one.

DISTRIBUTING CENTRE FOR NJ
TRATE COMPANY.
commissioner Of Agriculture Re-
ports That This Is First Benefit Of
Rate Decision.

washington, Nov. 19.--As O. result
or the recent decision in the matter
Of freight rates, Columbia is to be
made a South Atlantic distributing
warehouse point by one Of the largest
international concerns handling raw
fertilizing material-the Nitrate
Agencies company. This announce
ment was communicated to Commits
sioner T.. j. Watson from New York,
Immediately upon his arrival here this
afternoon from that city
Mr.. Watson was i'm conference with
the general officers Of the company
in New York on Tuesday and had pre-
viously been in correspondence with
them.
Inc other distributing agencies of
this company are at San Francisco,
Cal; San Jose, CAL; Seattle, Wash.
Columbus. Ohio; New Orleans, La
Habana, Cuba, TOronO Canada; and
two or three other ports.
Columbus Ohio, and Columbia are
the only inland distributing points.
Commissioner Watson said: This
announcements means much more
than the prestige which It gives Co
lumbia. All who have been working
for the development of our agricul-
ture have been preaching the doctrine
Of home-mixing Of fertilizers. The
problem has been how to get the raw
material. This makes 1t possible for
South Carolina farmers to buy readily
fertiliZing raw material to mix them
selves ut the farm. 1t means too
that they will be enabled to get the
same amount or perhaps more Of ac-
tual fertilizing value for $15,OO0,O0O
annually that they now pay, apprOxl-
mately, $2S, 900, 600 for. The company
owns and operates its own large
steamers from South American and
other foreign ports. The effort has
been made to use Georgetown and Co
iumDia DOat line, bat the steamers
are too deep draft for Georgetown,
and at first Charleston will probably
be used as the port Of entry, with
shipment TO the interior via George.
town or by rail direct to Columbia.
THE matter Of warehousing ia
cilities was gone into at the confer
ence in New York and is satisfactory.
One of the general officers Of the COM
pany Is shortly to come to Columbia
to perfect all arrangements and make
proper announcements. Every farmer
in the State who tried intelligent
home mixing Of fertilizers knows full
we'll what this effort to open our terri
tory to high class raw material means
to him."

WILL NOT SEEK SENATE.
LEVER PROBABLY WON'T RUN
IN NEXT CAMPAIGN.
Congressman Says His Duties Give
Him Enough Without Starting An
other Effort.

Greenville, Nov. 19.-In the course
OF a statement issued hepe this after
noon. Congressman Lever declared
that under existing circumstances it
Is not likely that he will aspire to tho
junior United States senatorship next
summer.
Mr. Levers statement follows: "As
to what my intentions are regarding
the senatorial race, / am prepared TO
say this: l am now representing the
Seventh district in congress and am
the chairman Of the committee on as-
riculture of that body. TO handle this
powerful committee is mans job,
for it is the work of this committee
in which the farmers are most vi
tally interested, and / do not pro-
pose to dissipate my energies and to
that extent neglect my duties by be-
ginning now campaign for position
that is not now open. No race for the
senate is now on and l shall cross
no bridges which have not been reach
cd.
II have found no imperative call
upon me to enter a race that is not
yet even begun. When it does open,
IL patriotism and my conceptions of
duty seem. to demand that 1 should
enter this contest, will meet the
situation positively and irrevocably.
/ am prepared, however, to say that
in the existing circumstances, it is not
likely that I'shall aspire to the junior
senatorship next summer. Beyond
expressing this probability OF my in
tentions. do not care to co."
Congressman Lever spoke today ut
meeting of Greenvile farmers and
business men, after which a livestock
association was organized.
