with his mother and party Of rela-
tives and friends we're picnicing at
Warm Springs, and at the time of the
accident was wading with a number of
other little fellows where the water
was shallow, while the older people
were bathing in the Springs. The
child was evidently unfamiliar with
the dangerous places, so got beyond
his depth and before the other chill
dren realized his peril was drowned.
Search for the body was immediate
ly begun, but it was not recovered un-
til the following morning
The father arrived from Blackfoot
and the body was taken there for

ATTEND TO REGISTRATION
Voters Are NegIecting Important Mat
ter In Connection With
Coming Elections.

Up to this time only a few people
have given attention to the matter
of registering for the coming elections.
1t seems a hard matter to impress
upon the minds of the people that all
those who did not vote at the last
general election, and in the same pre-
cinct in which they intend to vote this
year, will have to register, or transfer
if their former precinct was within
this county. Registration must be
made during the month of July.
1t is probable that many of the peo-
pie are under the impression that be-
cause they swore in their votes at the
recent local option election it will be
unnecessary for them to register. This
would be a proper conclusion had the
papers been properly filled out, but
under the circumstances it will be
necessary for all those who did not
vote at the last general election in this
county to register, and those who vot-
ed within the county but have since
changed residence to another precinct
or. are now residing In a newly Great
ed precinct. must transfer to the new
precinct.
As stated in the last issue of the
Press, it will mean a considerable
saving to the county if all those who
can conveniently do so will register
at the county clerks Office. The clerk
does not receive pay for this work.
while all other registration officers
must be paid a fee by the county.
In the article appearing in the last
ssue of. the Press on this subject. it
was stated that those who had regis
tered for the last general election
would be entitled to vote this year If
they still reside In the same precinct.
This was wrong. 1t should have read
"all those who voted" instead Of all
those who were registered. The clerk
makes up the abstract from the pol
Hist of the last election.

AMERICAN FALLS
LOST BOTH GAMES

THE FOURTH TWELVE TO THREE
IDAHO FALLS WON SUNDAY
ELEVEN TO TWO.
Both Opposing Teams Have Strength

Weeks and We VIII Have to $50

BlackfOOt Newt Sunday.

The gladiators of the diamond, by
which we mean the squad of base ball
players who constitute the American
Falls team, returned home Monday, a
very much detected party. The rea-
son for the downcast spirits was the
fact that they had lost the Saturday
and Sunday games, and in both in
stances, it is said. the defeat came
largely through their own bad plays
rather than from the superiority OF
their opponents.
The Saturday game at Pocatello
started off in a way that promised
some good entertainment for the large
crowd of spectators, but an error in
the third inning, through which the
Pocatello team was enabled to chase
in four runs. seemed to get on the
nerves of our boys to such an extent
that they did not seem able to see the
ball, and from that time on their play
was most painful to behold
NThe POcatello team was strengthen
ed by battery from the Union league
formerly playing with the Murray,
Utah. team, but for all that our boys
should have made a better showing
against them had they played their
usual game
Those who witnessed the game at
Idaho Falls say it was "the same
thing over again" although it is be-
lieved that Idaho Falls has a con-
siderably stronger team than Poca-
tello.
American Falls is now tied with Po-
catello for first place, but with any
reasonable baseball luck we should
again take the lead after next Sun
day. The Blackfoot team will be our
opponents at that time on the home
grounds, and as we have administer
ed three decisive defeats. it seems pro
bable that we can win the Sun
day game. while Idaho Falls should
be able to win from Pocatello.
On Sunday, the 18th, our game will
be with Idaho Falls on the local
grounds, and we get a game with Po-
catello again, at this place, on Friday
July "a. BY that time our players
will have plenty OF time to settle
down, and they will certainly make a
better showing than they did in the
game on the Fourth.

RESULT OF FIRST COUNT
Miss Eva Barnard in Lead BY Small
Margin-Awarded Prize.

Z The result of the first count in the
Press-Merchants' popular lady con-
test showed Miss Eva Barnard of this
city to be in the lead by a small mar
gin and the ten dollar prize was
awarded to her as was announced.
There are thousands of votes out
and very little work on the part of
any of the candidates would have Sc
cured for them this first prize, as well
as put them in the lead for the grand
prize, beautiful piano, which will be
awarded to the lady having the high
est number of votes on September 4th
1t is evident that the merchants are
not passing out the vote coupons, but
all that is necessary to secure them
is to ask for them at any of the fol-
lowing business houses when making
cash purchases:
Fall Greek Mercantile Co.
Iowa Lumber Co.
Sparks Meat Co.
Cartercar Auto Co.
Murray & Fitzpatrick, druggists.
o. A Schmidt Furniture Co.
Or get friends who subscribe for the
Press to save their vote coupon.
The next count will take place July
3lst, and to create interest in this
contest and to get the contestants in
to the habit of saving their coupons
we will offer two prizes: Ten dollars
in gold to the lady making the great
est gain from this time on, and five
dollars in gold to the lady making the
second largest gain. The present
standing of contestants will have no
bearing whatever in the awarding of
these special prizes. The gain from
the time of the first count will be con-
sidered only.
The standing of contestants at the
first count is as follows:
