throughout the state of Idaho nv the
parents and friends to secure the re-
turn of the Idaho National Guard 70

ents and friends together with the
governing board of the Commercial
club, met at the city hall Monday

means for securing the desired results.
The meeting was presided over bv

merclal body, who stated the purpose
OF the gathering. The facts were
brought out that the governors of
otner states had taken active measures
Tor the return of their guardsmen. and
apparently as result of their efforts
the guardsmen of every state in the
northwest have been sent home except-
ing Idaho.

been ordered to another point 80 miles
distant for two months service at ma

The Second Idaho was one of the
very first regiments to reach the Dor
der, in response to the presidents call.
1t is stated by military inspectors and
administers that the Idaho BOYS have
far excelled any other body of guards
men in discipline, in maneuvering, in
tactics and battle engagements; and
that when it comes to endurance in
the long and trying hikes which they
have been called upon to make, it has
been said of them by the higher officers
that they even put the regulars to
shame" They have routed every other
regiment in the sham battles in which
they have engaged, and In all ways
have shown themselves to be an eff

Evening star., 1916-08-25
BY J. ED GRILLO.

Harry Harper. who. July 20 last, held
the White Sox to three scattered hits
and beat them on the local grounds by
Rowland team in the second game of
the series this afternoon.
Harper has had sufficient rest and
should be in good form this afternoon.
Just which one of his pitchers Rowland
will use is not known, but the chances
are il will be Joe Benz or Russell. Re
gardless of whether it will be a right
handler or left -hander, Griffith's lineup
will remain the same, Leonard, Judge.
Smith and Milan all remaining in the
game.
Griffith believes that he can teach
his new players the art of making
good at the bat against 1eft-handers
If they are kept in the game when
southpaws are pitching, realizing there
is no chance to accomplish this under
any other conditions.
Elmer Smith came into his own yes
terday. 1t was the second time a
right-hander had started game
against him since joining the team,
and he proved himself a most capable
hitter against Faber.
Smith drove in five of the Nationals
eight runs. In the first inning he
brought Foster home with a clean sim
gle to left and his home-run drive
with the bases full in the fifth was one
of the longest hits ever made on the
local field. This ball cleared the wall
by several yards. the only one which
ever has. both Bakers and Eddie Muir
phys wallops hitting the top of the
wall and bounding over.
Smiths drive was of terrific force, and
proves the former Cleveland outfielder
to be a most dangerous hitter.
1t does not require much of a stretch
of imagination to figure what Cleveland
fans are saying after they read this
mornings paper telling of Elmer Smith S
drive over the wall with the bases full.
while Dan Moeller, who played in both
games at Philadelphia, did not get a
single hit.
Manager Foh1. of course. will come in
for censure for having made the deal
for it is very plain that the two players
Griffith obtained in exchange for Boeh-
ling and Moel1er are of more value to
the Nationals than any pair that has
been obtained during the Griffith admin
istration, now in it's fifth year
Both Smith and Leonard are young
men who have bright future before
them, and in the games to date they
have added much to the strength of the
Griffmen in the matter of timely hit
ting.
Howard Shanks undoubtedly is one of
the greatest outfielders the game has
ever produced. Shanks uses excellent
judgment where to play for the various
batters, and it is therefore d difficult
matter for the opposing batters to get
balls past him.
One minute he is in close and gets
short flies and the next time he is play
ing deep and pulling some long drives
There is no outfielder in either league
who has anything on Shanks. Iris
Speaker is wonderful fielder, but ne
has nothing on Shanks when it comes
to fielding and covering ground.
There has not been single game in
which Leonard has taken part in which
he has not made hit or figured in
the rallies.
Yesterday he brought John Henry
home with single, and he also started
the fifth inning. in which Smith cleared
the bases with his homer. by walking.
