Otic demonstration was a sue
cess in every particular. The
day was ushered in by the blow
ing of the whistles of the factor
les and mills at seven o'clock,
which continued for five minutes
and served to awaken the lag
CARDS who were not already up
and ready to commence the fes-
t'vities of the day.
Visitors to the city began to
arrive at an early hour and the
boats from down the river we're
loaded so the city was full of
visitors at the time the exercises
started. The program was opened
ly a parade which started from
the ball grounds at ten o'clock.
1t was headed by the United States

with their soldierly bearing.
Only one of the fraternal or
ders of the city, the Redmen, was
IN line. The Methodist Sunday
school turned out in a body and
~th9 young people made fine ap-
p8arance as they marched up the
street. Another feature of the
parade was six young ladies on
horseback. About thirty auto
mobiles decorated with flags and
hunting were in line, followed by
the city water wagon, on top of
which were a number of prOmi-
nent members of the Benewah
club.
A large crowd witnessed the
log rolling contest, which took
place in front of the city dock.
There we're three entries, Prem

Barden.
The afternoon program at the
ball park was opened by a band
concert by the st. Maries band
which was much enjoyed by the
large crowd present. The band
also rendered a number of selec-
tons at different times between
the events throughout the after
noon and added materially to the
success of the occasion.
Judge r. n. Dunn of Occur d.
Alene, the speaker of the day,
opened his address about 2:3O.
He spoke in a forcible and feeling

WHAT IS
HIGGINS
GOING To DO
BY H. c. HAMILTON

Omitted Press STAFF Correspondent
NEW YORK. Jan 20.-Miller Hug
gins, David Harum though he is. stands
in a worse predicament today through
his chickering's and switchings than any
manager in the National league.
Although the National isn't cluttered
up to any great extent with variety of
classy first baseman. the Cardinals are
suffering more in this department than
any of their rivals.
A long time ago Higgins had Ed
Konetchy, who then was touted the best
first baseman in the league lie traded
Honey to Pittsburgh and then he began
a Wild chase after some one to plant on
the first stop. He never had more than
halfway succeeded.
Jack Miller plays good baseball any
where he is placed, but he isn't a first
baser of dimensions by any means.
Snyder is a catcher and you couldn I
make anything else out of him if you
tried all your life.
Roger Hornsby has done some first
sacling and he does pretty fair job of
it, But after all he is a shortstop or a
third baseman. 1t can't be stretched to
fit him.
Higgins has been working all winter
to land a first baseman. He has dicker-
ed for Fred Merkle and others. Merkle
seems the logical man to 60 to the
Cardinals. for he is of very little use to
the Dodgers with Jake Daubert on the
job
Merke would strengthen the Car@-
nails lot He is a good fielder. a good
base runner. and grand cleanup hit
ter. 1t wouldn't be at all surprising TO
see him in a st. Louis uniform
Wilbert Robinson needs a catcher and
there is talk of sending Merkle to St
Louis in exchange for Snyder The trade
might not look even. but it would be a
good move for each club. which is the
main thing.

HAYES COUNTS

CHICAGO, Jan. 2O.--Although Dan
Hayes many followers predict he will

hard hitter, Monday, on the Knockout
Brown-Bob Moha card in Racine, there
is none more insistent upon this result
than Hayes and Manager Howard Carr.
Mondays fight card is attracting a
lot of attention. Brown and Moha are
the smuggling type. and can be relied up
ton to deliver all the fireworks neces-
