Shakeup In Texas
Baseball Clubs

Reports from Dallas Indicate that
Doc Harris White IS out OF the Texas
league club there White, Ham Pat
terson and Chink Mattick bought the
club from Joe Gardner two years ago.
They did well in 1917 and even made
some money IN 1918 but did not
agree perfectly and now Patterson
and Mattick have taken over Whites
Interests. Rumor also has Il that a
change may come IN ownership Of the
Houston team with either Otto Sens
or Doak Roberts. or both, selling out,
while Ellis Hardy, according to infor-

tory jokes and compliments TO the

this ancient order and his speech was
most interesting to hear, being cloth
ed in classical language throughout

Z Shepherd, as is his custom. did
not lose an opportunity TO give a
ten-minute address on the possibili-
ties of the North Side tract as a farm
ing community. and Jerome as the
metropolis of Southern Idaho. Mr.
Shepherd said that the location Of
the metropolis is still undecided, and
that with the water power we have
within twenty-five or thirty miles of
US, Jerome has as good a chance for
that honor as any other city. He
said that a bunch OF determined men,
acting in harmony. can bring TO pass
whatever they desire, and cited in
stances where bunch of determined
boosters have compelled railroad
heads TO have their terminal points
located at far different places than
originally intended.
After the speeches splndid lunch

CRY crowd, after which another hour
of cards was enjoyed and the visiting

That this method of preventing
Destructive fires was successful is
shown by the fact that the forests
taken over by the white man rarely
bore scars of trees destroyed by
fires on the contrary. these forest

the wisdom he might have learned
from the Indian, insists upon rigid
suppression OF all forest fires. with
