CUE PRACTICE HERE
Amateur Champion of Europe

Arriving From Holland.
BY THOMAS J. GALLAGHER.

Europe's amateur billiard champion,
AIRY Bos OF Amsterdam. Holland, dlsem-
baried about II o'clock yesterday morn
ing at Hoboken from the Holland
America steamship Noordam, which
passed the bar Sunday evening. but
remained over night at Quarantine.
About 5 feet inches In height and
weighing 140 pounds Bos Is a clean
who. In addition to being champion,
Is reputed to be the speediest player
who ever welded cue.
From Hoboken he was escorted to
the Crescent Athletic Club, Brooklyn,
OF which he will be n guest until he
goes 10 Philadelphia to participate in
the International IS = balkline tourna-
ment to be held in the City OF Brotherly
Love. at the Manufacturers Club. be
ginning February 10.
The first thing Bos did after his
arrival at the Crescent A. c. was to
visit the billiard room. whers, after
having become acquainted with the man
ager William ]. Ryan, he asked the
latter to play a game. Telling of the
incident, Ryan remarked:
"Bos said that after fourteen days
on shipboard he was ticlSled by the
sight of a billiard table. He spoke
English we'll enough to make me under
stand what he wanted and understood
what 7 had to say. I didn't beat him
He played too well and showed him
self wonder. After he got through
playing balkline he exercised at fancy
shots. at which he was spectacular. and
executed all tho peculiar mssse shots
Of which Horcmans was supposed To
have a MONOPOLY
John Layton, champion OF three cush-
ion carom billiards, arrived In New
York Sunday night. Asked about his
pending match with Alfredo de orc. who
has challenged him for the champion
ship, he answered:
IT have named Milwaukee, February
16. IL and is. and expect Mr.. de orc to
approve. II he objects to playing in
Milwaukee I may have to name Sedalla.
Mo-. where have legal residence. Un-
der the rules governing The champion
ship. II a champion names any other city
than the one in which he resides as
place in which TO defend his title, TO
salty the selection tho consent or the
challenger must be obtained.
'T accepted an offer for the match
made by Fred Smith, proprietor OF the
Plankinton Arcade. lie guaranteed
$1,000 and all gate receipts above that
amount. ] thought that lberal offer
and also thought lie was entitled TO
the match because nc had regularly pro-
vlded engagements for billiard players.
II have not seen Mr.. dc orc, but am
informed that he wishes to play in New
York, which he believes VIII raise the
Milwaukee bid. 1t Is only natural that
he should prefer TO play in this city, for
he lives here, and by playing here can
save the expense OF trip 10 the West

there wo will not be bothered about ar
rangements. and the winner viii got all

The statement has been made OF late

ice and charity of Judge Landis and
because of action of the major
cues on the transforming rule.
The transforming rule came up for
russion--and a short and sweet dis
usion 1t was--at the joint meeting of
major leagues here last month.
eries H. Ebbets Of Brooklyn sug-
stcd that the rule be so amended that
world series players be permitted to

1T only the playing Of entire teams
iich participated IN the series be pro-
lifted.
4 The Ebbets proposition was followed
by hush. Judge Landiss face was
Then the Judge insinuated that it would
be for the best interests of baseball
not to speak OF his own ease of mind
to let the transforming rule stand. He
made 1t plain that he did not want any
tamperlng with the rule.
Meusel, we are afraid, is as sure to be
out until May 20 as it is sure that May
20 will roll around. There is a small
chance for the Babe, who did not tell
the Judge to jump into Lake Michigan
and apologized for what he said to tho
Judge in this city. Ruth has been told
TO keep quiet, and he is obeying instruc-
tions. If he obeys them until April
IL, Judge Landis may relent in his
case. But. there's going to be no change
In the rule to permit Ruth to play be-
fore May 20.

ny WILLIAM n. HANNA.

Frank Baker has the baseball fans
puzzled again. His most recent state
ment. that he was through with pro-
fessional baseball. promise to his
wife. was altogether unexpected after
the way he talked last week. No word
that he had retired was received from
him by the Yankee club yesterday.
1t looks as II the erstwhile home run
star meant it, and II so baseball will
lose a man who has been a distinct
ornament to 1t. both as a player and
an n man. The longer men such as he
stick to the game the better for the
game.
The fans are many in this city who
would like to see Aaron Ward returned

Is a good second baseman. but cracka-
jack third baseman. He plays the
tertiary turn with rare artistry and
better than he does the keystone juno

JnckIitsch Calls ON McGraw.

Fred Jacklitsch. former big league
catcher. who lives In New York, called
on Manager McGraw yesterday. They
discussed the job of coach for the
Giants pitchers. but nothing came OF
1t. McGraw told Jacklitsch that tho DO
sition .if one were made for him. would
bo for only two months and halt. The
reduction in the player limit would
necessitate that short term. Jao,,litsch
has n four months term of coaching
at Amherst TO keep him busy longer
than that.
AT the February meeting or the Ma

certain pertinent things to say anent
the alleged attitude OF certain mag

SO the Golden West will have to do
without him the coming season. Cali
fornia's loss is the East's gain. Bill
Klein. passing the winter in New York
as a patron Of the ring and other arts,
has signed to umpire the Giants White
Sox tour. with Ban Johnson to appoint
an American League coadjutor yet to
be named. George Moriarty will be
with the Yankees again for their joint
tour with the Brooklyns and the Ma
tional League umpire for that series
has yet to be selected.
Two changes have been made In the
spring games schedule OF the Yankees.
The game with New Orleans on March
has been canceled-too early for a
game probably-and the New York
Brooklyn contest OF March 81 will be
played In Waco instead OF Austin.
Charles Stoneham, the Nov York Ma

day from Cuba. where he fits every
so often and where no will fit again
soon. He doesn't expect 10 be here
for the schedule maeting in February
as he doesn't think there will be much
doing. McCraw expects to visit Cuba
before going TO the spring training
camp In San Antonio but his affairs
30 far have prevented his fixing on
any specific time. The only news Of

WIN very little current in its way thru
the canyon.
on the east side between the Can
yon wall and the river bank was a
iharshy slough covered with cane
grass ten feet high and occasional
punches of willows, which continued
on down past where Mr.. Drew now
lives quite distance. The Roswell
u'tch follows the old marshy channel
our OF the canyon. Sebree's dam and
'he wagon bridge altered the character
OF the river thru the canyon. If there
was any wagon trail crossing the river
IN that vicinity it was entirely oblit-
Grated when l was there in 1864
mere was a cattle trail coming in
thfu the brush on the other side to
the water.
"A merchant from Boise Mr.. Ander-
son OF the firm of Soma & Anderson
ih'stook this trail for a horse back
crossing and was drowned with his
morse; at least that was the conclusion
after dlligent search. A few years
later traffic between the valley and
Silver City became somewhat import
ant and persons from the north side
ana lower valley wanting to 20 to
Silver City in the high water season
had to go to Boise city to get across.
therefore Perry Munday and Tom
Wood Of old Middletown put in fer
ry at the Canyon approaching with
road on the west side at the lower end
OF the Canyon and going up a grade
which they made to the summit of
the hill where the Caldwell cemetery
is now located; this road has been TAX
en- by some as the old Oregon trail.
Il hat portion of the old Oregon Trail
now in Canyon county as traversed it
is about like this beginning where l
struck it near Mason creek, running
west to Canyon Hill, crossing The hill
at the lowest point north Of the resi-
dence of w. B. Allison, descending TO
the bottom on the west side over the
cut in the cemetery road, veering
southwesterly across the bottom, cross
ing Indian creek above the Troy laun-
dry, westerly straight down the val
ley for a number of miles crossing the
river to the north side somewhere
above Parma and hitting Snake river
at old Fort Boise.
John Bowman took up claim about
10 miles west of Caldwell on the river
and might be able to tell you just
where the trail crossed the river to
the north side.
Rev. H. K. Hines, in his history of
missionary efforts in Oregon, tells of
crossing Snake river in the early days
near the mouth of Boise river where
his brother, Gustavus Hines, had been
previously drowned

During the winter Mr.. Payne told
me much about his life in Oregon
Said he crossed the plains with a com.
pany of immigrants in l848 crossing
Canyon Hill and coming down to the
bottom on the same road that | did
The road was cut deep into the soil
In crossing the hill, by the wagon
trains and gave evidence of long years
OF travel. A few years ago VIM. B
Allison and his father plowed up the
old road and levelled it and put in a
crop of alfalfa, so the foot prints in
the sands of time were obliterated.
7 The winter of 1864 was a very
severe one, many cattle dying along
the Boise river. The snow commenc-
ed falling the 18th day of November
and the ground was covered with snow
until the 3rd day of March Late in
February l went on the river in the
canyon to see how thick the ice had
formed, and l found it IS inches thick
and the water under it 10 feet deep;
this was little below where the wag-
on bridge now is.
Not much of place for an immi-
grant crossing. l crossed Snake river
that year on the ice the 3rd day Of
January, 1865, about where the Froman
Ferry was afterwards located.
Nearly all of the old pioneers Of
1864 have gone ahead to better coun-
try than Idaho, I hope, although it
may be hard to find.
B. F. Morrow could tell you about
the tragedy at the Richardson place,
and think Mrs. Mckinley Fowler
will remember the ferry in teh canyon,
as she was then living in the Curtis
place. The first post-office west of
Boise was located at old Mr.. Munday S
home above the canyon, later on he
moved to old Middleton, started a
store and kept the post-office He
was among the first persons buried on
Canyon Hill, where his monument
may be seen.
You might get further data from
the remnant left of the old pioneers.
Yours truly,
