Wilson Early Next Week

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1.-Breaking a
three weeks deadlock Senate and
House conferrees reached an agreement
late to-day on the prob ibition enforce
ment bill
Quick approval OF the conferrces' re-
port is expected by leaders, and the
measure may go to the President early

OF l per cent as the maximum alcoholic

other purposes are provided
Home Wines Approved
The Senate eonferrees, however, sue
cecded i'll retaining virtually every one
of the 285 liberalizing provisions
adopted by the upper House. which

per cent. Manufacturers. however
as provided both by the House and
Senate bills, must bear the burden of
proof that their products contained al

allow man TO have and consume in

9--l Rout OF Sox Makes
Reds Fav0rites i'm Series

and faded from the field, dizzy and
dazed, tioundering and reeling. 1t
looked like Willard in the second
round, taking a world of punishment
and offering nothing but feeble and
forlorn thrusts in return.
1t is hard to imagine a great machine
so hopclessly outclassed for even one
game. For after the Red tide began
to surge forward in that fourth inning
there was nothing left to the game but
Red streak around the bases and a
weary hutter of White legs up to the
plate and back to the bench.
While Ruether was the big star Of
the day, with his great speed, his fine
curve ball, his superb control and his
lone factor in Redland's opening tri-
umph. Moran sent machine to the
field that gave the tall southpaw brill
liant support. with the lone exception
of Kopf's double break in the second
round that gave Chicago q totally un-
earned tally. Both infield and outfleld
played the game in championship
style, while the entire team fought with
cool and confident courage that was
not to be denied
Wingo Outcatches Schalk
No, Ruether wasn't the entire Red
show, for there was Ivy Wingo's dead
ly right arm that broke up the Sox
attack on the bases within two inn
ings, killing Eddie Collins and Gandil
by a double stride. Wingo outcaught
Ray Schalk, rated as the greatest
catcher Of the year.
Then again there was panther stalk
ing Eddie Roush, VINO roamed around
the outtield like gray ghost with red
legs in the pursuit Of long high flies
Ii; Il
eight fly balls. and some of them wero
ticketed for extra bases until this fleet
athlete interposed his clammy paws and
turned the tide.
Ruether. Daubert and Neale, led the
Red attack with nine telling blows
evenly distributed, enough to win with
out any further help.
But, after all, the incidents and cpl
sodes that we have offered here were
not the leading features of a Red
tinted afternoon. Before the game
Redland fans in bulk were more than
a trihc dubious regarding the outcome.
They had little hope of beating Cicotte,
the veteran who had turned in twenty
eight or twcntynine victories against
such sluggcrs as Ruth, Cobb, Speaker
and Siser.
The Break" of the Game
They had seen one dream come true
when the pennant came to town. They
were hardly looking for a double
miracle. SO in that fourth inning, with
one out and Kopt at bat, they had set
tied down to await the inevitable when
the Red shortstop tapped gently to
Cicotte. Eddie, instead of jumping
swiftly for the ball, took his time with
all the leisure of a steel striker He
made no attempt to hurry the ball
along to Risberg for a sure double play
and Risberg in turn found the alert
Duncan using his head in slowing up
the play.
The Red side might here have been
easily retired without a run. but there
were two out as it was when Neale
singled, and when Wlngo followed with
another long blow, scoring Kopf, the

Crantland Rice Tells How
Eddie Cicotte Tossed Own
Game Away by Failure
to Field Ball Quickly
By Grantland Rice

CINCINNATI, Oct. 1.--Kindly insert
this. classic phrase on the sporting
scroll of waning season. viz. Boston
may have her Ruth, but Cincinnati has
her Ruether-and between the i'm
mortal pair the Redland star is more
Ruether than Ruth.
1t was Ruether day, in the first
world series combat, who struck off
two triples and single out of three
trips to the plate. 1t was Ruether's
willowy left arm that held the slug
ging White Sox to three clean blows
and three filmy, pale blue scratches.
1t was Ruether who stalked into the
spotlight supposed to be held in close
reserve for Eddie Cicotte, and in the
presence of $1,000 astonished persons
held Eddie Collins. jackson. Weaver
and Felsch to one scrawny, scratchy
single.
For the greater part of four innings
Cicotte, the American League pre-
mier, gave Ruether an even battle. but
in the closing spasm of the fourth, with
the count even at ! and ], the Red
attack broke down Cicotte's defence
and drove him to the shower with one
of the fiercest onslaughts that any
single inning of q worlds series has
ever known.
First Triple Settles Issue
Man after man the Red guard stepped
up and drove the best that Cicotte had
to give from one part of the field to an
other. But the big cave-in arrived
when Babe Ruether stepped up with
two on and hammered the first of his
two triples far beyond Chicago reach.
This was the blow that broke up the
battle, gave Cincinnati the jump game
and turned the Reds from forlorn hopes
to red-hot favorite at to g. For, Of
the fifteen world series contests played
to date, the ball club winning the open
ing scrimmage has ultimately tri-
umphed on no less than thirteen occa-
sions. The only two clubs that ever
lost the first game and later finished
on ton we're the Boston Americans Of
1908 and the Philadelphia Athletics OF
1911. On all remaining occasions the
team that won the opener mas gailopeo
safely along to certain triumph.
The Reds not only won the Jump
game to- day but they won 1t IN the
most decisive fashion that any hrs'
game has ever been won before. Ihey
won by margin of 8 to /. and they
outplayed the White Sox IN every oe-
partment by this same margin. Ihcy
not only slaughtered Kid Gleason's best
bet within four innings, but they CON
tinued the merry Jubilee of swat
against Wilkinson and Lowdermilk,
running up juicy total OF fourteen
hits for twenty-one bases.
Punish Sox Severely
The White Sox were outbatted, out
pitchcd. outfelded and outfought, for
after that first rugged Red attack. the
great Chicago machine lost all heart

1t Happened in Missouri

At an old fashioned revival they
had great and sometimes strenuous
times. An old farmer attended one
of those old fashioned shouting"
revivals one time. He owned a
rantankerous old mare that, when
she got excited, would try to tear
everything to pieces. He went to
sleep while the preacher was preach
ing the sermon. Pretty soon an
enthusiastic sister got to feeling
good and began founcing around
and shouting. She floundered up
against the old. farmer who was
asleep. The noise awakened him
and the first thing he thought was
that his old mare was having one of
her 'tantrums. Half awake, he
grabbed the shouting sister around
the waist, yelling, whoa Nance,
you old fool. Here john" calling
his sons name, "cut the belly band
and unbuckle the breecning and
crupper or the old fool will tear
everything to pieces"

John Oakes Injured

John Oakes met with quite SER
ious accident the first of the week
while hauling logs to Gus Earring
tons mill on Cedar Creek Ridge.
The '''go-devil" upon which he was
riding, turned over and the log
which was dragging behind. rolled
over one of his legs. No bones
were broken but his leg was badly
bruised. He was brought to Kend-
rick and is now staying with Frank
Chamberlain until he is able to be
out again. John is good worker
and it is too bad that he has to be
laid up just at the beginning of the
busy season.

Sent Home Souvenirs

Ed. Riggin who is with the A. E.
F., sent scme very interesting SOU
venirs hcme to his father, George
Riggin. One of the articles is a
German army rifle in good con-
dition except that the trigger has
been removed and the hammer lock
put out of commission. The barrel
of the gun is in perfect condition
inside and looks like good piece
of workmanship, but the stock is a
very crude piece of work. An
American rifle is vastly superior, at
least from the standpoint of appear
ance. Mr.. Rlggin also sent two
German canteens. He wrote to his
father and told him he had some
valuable souvenirs that he had pick.
ed up on the front but he wasn't
going to take chances on losing
them by sending them across by
mail. He has been in active ser.
vice since America first entered the
war and has seen some hard fight
ing. He will no doubt have some
interesting stories to tell when he
gets home.

Fifteen Years Ago

Events of interest that happened
in and around Kendrick in the
spring of 1904.
Joe Fruchtl has a crew of eight
men employed at the brick yard,
which is now running full blast. A
new clay crusher was installed this
spring and the capacity of the plant,
14OO per day, will be established
this spring to fill the demand.
H. E. Vessels sold the farm of
VIM. Terry on Bear Ridge, consist
ing of 16O acres, to Mr.. Harms of
Nebraska, the price paid being
S3,7OO.
One of the tramway buckets fell
the other day just this side of the
first tower, lighting on top of three
fat hogs. wounding them so severe
ly that they had to be butchered.
Though it fell distance of l1O
feet the sack of wheat that was on
it never broke. One of the hogs
was killed completely by an iron
rod extending below the platform
of the bucket.

discussing the feasibility of organ
izing a farm bureau and securing a
county agent, took place at South

Bounty Law Changed

The legislature recently changed
the bounty laws on predatory
animals, taking the bounty off of
bear and doubling the amount of
wolves. The bounty now paid is
$3.50 each on cayote, bob cat and
lynx; 500 on wolves and $25 on
cougar or mountain lions.
To the sheriff's office has been
given the duty of taking the boun.
ties in each county, and trappers
should apply to them. Just what
part of the animal or specific in.
structions have not yet been an.
nounced under the new law, but
will soon be available.

Camp Fire Girls

1t is evident that a freezer of
grape sherbet was taken from the
Presbyterian Church the evening of
April the third. Altho the Camp
Fire Girls enjoyed sufficient serv-
ing of the remainder, the expense
OF the missing freezer must be met
with. All those concerned with the
disposal of the missing sherbet,
please send, to the treasurer of the
Camp Fire, Miss Eula Crocker, 81

Ship Refugee Garments

Moscow chapter and Latah county
Red Cross chapters sent 6225 pounds
OF clothing, shoes and bedding for
refugees from war swept countries,
Monday. The shipment was made
from Moscow and made several
truck loads of the bulky packages.
There were 130 sacks of clothing;
seven sacks of shoes; 19 boxes of
bedding and clothes and one barrel
Of clothing. Latah county had been
asked to furnish four tons of cloth
ing, bedding, etc., but fell short IT'S
pounds, but the quality of the goods
5shipped"was excellent. Fhe report
OF the shipment, as given by those
in charge, follows:
Latah county did not go over the
top in her quota for four tons in the
drive for garments for the refugees
but what was necessary IN quantity
was more than made up in quality
The shipment was credit to any
county. All articles were in splen-
did condition, at least third
were new and the rest Will need
very little, if any, mending. There
were good many heavy warm
coats, dresses, sweaters, underwear,
IN fact the material was of the best.
Everyone seemed to give literally
and cheerfully, regretting they had
not more to give. A lot of new bed
ding also was included in this ship
ment. When we consider that
Latah county sent Is tons last tall
and had the Liberty Shop going all
winter selling worn clothing, the
present shipment is splendid. All
auxiliaries did their share. Star

Two New Districts Formed

Two more highway districts were
formed in Latah county by elections
held last Saturday, making eight
highway districts and one good
roads district now formed IN the
county, says the Star Mirror. The
two districts formed Saturday
were the PotIatch and the Prince
ton-Harvard districts. A bitter
fight occurred in Princeton pre-
cinct, where 1872 votes were cast
against the proposition to 140 votes
for it, but in Harvard precinct the
vote was unanimous in favor of the
district, there being 10S votes cast,
every one being yes" This gives
majority of Sc for the district in
the two precincts.
Potlatch gave an overwhelming
majority for the PotIatch district,
there tbeing 294 votes in favor and
only five votes against the proposed
district, but it failed to carry in
Viola and Palouse precincts in the
proposed district, the vote in these
precincts being 13 for to 16 against,
in Palouse precinct and five for, to
nine against, in Viola precinct.
Harrington precinct gave 10 for to
z against and Cora precinct has not
yet reported. The four precincts so
far reported give 322 for to 81
against, and Cora precinct probably
did not cast more than 20 votes,
which makes it a certainty that the
highway district carried by vote
of more than six to one.

Against

This is almost identical to the
vote cast for the establishment of
the district, which was 3OS for and
"a against, and is considered
splendid showing. Undoubtedly
large vote would have been cast
only that the farmers are rushing
their spring work,
The men who have been handling
the good roads move and have de-
voted weeks of their, time to the
work feel very much elated over the
results Of the election and should
have the heartfelt thanks of all who
cast their vote for the proposition.
