INDOOR BASEBALL
Faculty and Benedicts Win Opening
Games.

The opening games of the Twin
Falls Indoor Baseball League, played
in the high school gymnasium Thanks
giving night, resulted in victory for
the teachers against the graduates, IA
to Z, and victory for the married
men against the single men, II to IA.
On account of the electric power being
turned off till 7 o'clock, there was a
little delay in commencing the game
but the public can be assured that
hereafter strenuous effort will be
made to start the games promptly at
1880 p. m. Another source of incon-
venience was the failure of the clubs
playing suits to arrive from the Chi
cago Outfitter on scheduled time. 1t is
most sure they will be here in time
for the next games, thus adding much
attraction to the games and making
it easy to distinguish the opposing
players.
The high school band was on hand
and furnished music before the games
and at the intermission. Mayor Meigs
was present to pitch the first ball
Not understanding the rule making ii
necessary for the pitcher to toss the
ball with a strictly underhand swing
he proceeded to wind up and threw an
overland spit ball with such alarming
speed and deception, that neither Mr.
Robbins, substituting at bat for Supt
Elliott, or Mr.. Failing, acting as catch
er, were able to touch the ball. The
batteries were then announced by
His Umps," Mr.. Golden, and the game
was on. A complete score of both
games follows. With more practice
with the added incentives the new
suits will bring, and without having
to perform after big Thanksgiving
dinner, the later games will undoubt
edly be more closely and evenly con
tested

BANCROFT WILL RETIRE:
Union Pacific Will Dominate the
Oregon Short Line.

Notwithstanding lack of official con-
flrmatlon, there is authority for the
report of changes in the personnel of
the Oregon Short Line, scheduled for
the first of the year.
Vice President and General Man
ager Bancroft to retire
The entire system, with the O.-W. e.
NJ, TO become in a more direct sense
part OF the Union Pacific.
Pocatello to become larger execu-
tive center of the Short Line.
e. b. Calvin to return to fill high
ly important position in the realign-
ment.
These are some of the probabilities,
but all lack even semi-official author
lty, excepting the reported retirement
of Mr.. Bancroft, which is said to have
been arranged at his request some
time ago.
The Short Line. and the O.-W. e N.
will become more noticeably under
Union Pacific dominance, it is report
ed. This may account for report
that President Mohler of the Union
Pacific and the Short Line will move
his headquarters from Omaha to Salt
Lake so as to be nearer the center of
the entire system.
If the changes said to be scheduled
become effective, the Short Line and
the O.-W. & N. will become in reality
giant divisions of the Union Pacific
from an operative standpoint, with en-
larged headquarters at Pocatello. A
General rearrangement of operating
| districts may follow.

OREGON SHORT LINE WILL EX.
TEND MENAN BRANCH in SPRING.
Branch Will Cost 1,75O,OO0-Other
Feeders Planned-May Mean Good
News For Twin Falls.

Denver-R. S. Lovett, chairman of
the Union Pacific, has issued orders
for the construction of new feeder
OF the Oregon Short Line in Idaho. 1t
will be an extension of the Menan
branch in the upper Snake river val
ley The cost of the construction is
placed at $1.75000O, and it is reported
to be part of an improvement that
will ultimately mean the expenditure
of $3,000,000.
This first unit will be 80 miles in
length. Most of the right of way has
already been acquired and the work of
building will begin with the opening
of spring The branch will tap a rich
farming region, some of it fine fruit
land hitherto without railroad facili-
ties.
Other feeders are said to be under
consideration for new farming regions
| in Idaho by the Union Pacific. Mr.
Lovett looked carefully over this
country during his recent trip through
the west.
The Denver & Rio Grande and West
ern Pacific also have an eye on Idaho
territory to be reached by proposed
spurs from the Western Pacific. Pres
ident Bush of the three western Goult
lines, while on his recent trip ovel
the Western Pacific, made, in com
pany with other prominent officials
of the lines, an automobile trip int
the Idaho country, evidently prospect
ing for feeders for the Western Paci
fic, of which, according to his owl
statement, it is much in need.
1t looks as if reaching this new Ida
no territory would develop into rae
between the Union Pacific and tn
Gould lines.

REMAINS OF MAN FOUND
Body Believed That Of Charles Martin,
Who Disappeared In 1910.

Mountainhome-The remains Of a
man, believed to be Charles Martin,
who disappeared in March, 1910, from
the sheep camp of Tex Riley, were
found Monday about four miles from
Reverse, by Greek, who was cross
ing that section.
Sheriff Stevens and Coroner Eaton
went at once to the scene but could
find nothing to identify the body ex-
cept the clothing, which appears to
answer the description of that worn by
Martin.
Martin is believed to have come to
Mountainhome from Rock Springs,
Wyo., and to have been about 32 or 33
years old. He was light complexion
ed, with hazel eyes, height about S
feet 8 inches, weight about 40 pounds.
| The country in which the body was
found is wild, desolate region. There
was nothing to show whether the
death was suicide, foul play of starva-
tion.-Statesman.

tees to investigate the matter. The
