EMPTYING CANALS

On Belle Isle, the municipal play ground of Detroit Mich, there is a peculiar pumping machine which was improvised for the purpose of drain ing the water from the canals on the island. These canals are drained and cleared of refuse each year in preparation for the skating season The machine, as shown in the Pop ular Mechanics Magazine, is a box 8 feet wide and 20 feet long, open at the ends and mounted on two wagon wheels at the center. At each end are two sproeket wheels End less chains pass over these sprackets and through the box. On the chains, at intervals of IA inches, paddles are attached.
 A four seeded peanut from Costa Rica is one of the finds" recently re- ported by the explorers of the Bu- reau of Plant industry.

FARMER MOORE
.bAALKKSS ON IDEA
OF JOINT DEBATE.
Nash Refuses to Allow Real
Estate Dealer to Argue
Facts on Platform

Hopes of the Democratic State
committee that M. Alexander and G. O
Moore, Democratic and Republican
candidates respectively for governor,
would stage a joint debate between
now and election, were blasted when
VIII H. Hornibrook, Democratic chair
man, received a letter from l. III. Nash,
Republican chairman, declining to per-
nit Moore to take the platform in
debate, according to word from Boise
In the same letter Nash suggests a
Joint discussion in the columns of
the Idaho Statesman. a Boise newspa-
per, under rules which the editor of
this publication would lay down for
the debate.
Regarding this counter proposal,
HOrnibrook says:
"'The same rules of procedure should
apply to one as the other. After ap-
propriating definite amount of space
for each party to the controversy, the
columns of this paper should be open
ed in the same manner that the owner
of a theatre would open his doors for
joint debate
"Therefore, if you are unable to OBJ
tain the consent of the Statesman to
the conditions named in my letter of
September 25, I submit that joint
discussion is impractical,
and l renew the suggestion for a joint
debate. Unless this challenge is
accepted, ! will assume, and
the voters of the state will assume
that your suggestion for joint news
paper discussion was a mere sham and
resOrted to solely because
of the fact that the Republican candi-
dae lacks the courage, ability and
the necessary facts and figures TO meet
the Democratic nominee IN the pub
lie platform"

TRAGEDIES IN FAMILY

ThAGEOl6S LIN FAMILY
Suicide of Soards is the third tragic
death is the family in four and
half years. On April 3, 1918, the sui
eide s brother, Henry Soards, was shot
to death by unknown persons in his
cabin on Salmon river, near the mouth
of Whitebird creek. In August, 1921,
Mrs. Matte Soards, widow of Henry
Soards and sister-in-law of William
Soards, was killed when she rolled a
thousand feet from a precipice over
looking Salmon river into the deep
canyon below. Her death occurred near
the place where the body of William
Soards was found.
Soards was last seen on September
| IT, when, with Frank Rippleman, he
went from the Scott ranch, south of
Florence,to his cabin. Rippleman left
Soards at the cabin and proceeded on
his way.
Albert Soards, who had been freight
ing from Grangeville into the mount
aims, returned to the Salmon canyon
early in the week. Not observing his
uncle about the place, he went into
the cabin, where he found the decom-
posed body.
INQUEST rs HELD
Coroner A. j. Maugg, IN Grangeville,
was advised of the death of Soards,
and at the request of residents of that
section of the country, went to the
scene and held an inquest Tuesday. The
jury returned a verdict of suicide.
Jurors were Joe Sayer, W. G.. Meade,
J. o. Howard, Frank Rippleman, Louis
Howard and Joe York.
The body of Soards was in such con-
dition that none of the men would
touch it. They dug a grave, and after
the inquest, taking hold of a leg of the
dead man $ trousers, they pulled the
BODY on canvas, in which it was later
wrapped, and then placed it in a box
and buried it.
Coroner Maugg, on his return to
Grangeville, said it was his opinion
Soards had been dead week when
the body was found.

ney, American light-heavyweight

Matchmaker Franz FlournOy OF Madi-
son Square Garden. Carpenters re-
quest for a proposition by cable was

Garden promoter did not reveal its de-

Carpenter is now in training for a
match at London May IL, with Ted
Kid Lewis, English champion in sew

SHRIVERS MAKES
UNIQUE START In
BICLEACUE DEBUT
Saginaw Boy Lets the Phillies
Down With Three Blows

New York, May Baseball history
yesterday again was adorned by the
work of a rookie pitcher-this time
Harry Shriver of Saginaw in his de-
but for Brooklyn-who played lead
ing role in the proceedings.
Shrivers performance in banking
the Phillies 2 to 0, with three lonely
bingles exce1led the debuts of Math-
ewson, Johnson and other pitching
stars. The unique feature of the
game, however, was the fact that
Post, Dodger, first sacker, had only
one put out, catch of line drive
in the ninth and no assists.
Only once before in the forty-six
years of the National League pastim-
ing has this record been equalled.
That was on August 80, 1916, when
Bill Hinchman of the Pirates had but
one put cut, and that on the last man
in the 9th in the second game of a
double header with Boston.
Jiggs Donahue, formerly of the
White SoX, holds the American
League record with no putouts and
only one assist back in 1906.
The st. Louis Browns were perched
on top of the American League today
as result of smuggling out their fourth
straight victory over the Cleveland
Indians, while the Yankees were out
playing for the third straight time by
Boston, FIVE to 2. 1t was a Yankee

The Giants mauled three Boston
twirlers and won their third straight,
10 to 8, gaining in the league race
as Chicago was idle. A triple by
Pinch Hitter Rohwer in the eighth

Cincinnati.

rival maulers a shot at the same tar
