This gives Philadelphia four games of the world's series, and with it the championship. The Nationals were simply slaughtered. They went down in one of the most disastrous de feats in the history of big baseball. All the craft and cunning of such great pitchers as Ames, Wiltse and Mar quad, failed to stay the onslaught of the men behind Pitcher Bender, while not compete for prizes. "I believe there are a number of growers in Latah county who could put in carload exhibits. Owing to the shape of our building we cannot allow over 525 boxes as a carload exhibit. This makes it easier for the. exhibitors and may help out some of those fel will continue to reserve space for at least one car, and also for a district display, but we must know right away what we can expect. "Some of our bankers have been ta king up the situation, and I enclose herewith a letter Loin Mr. Payne of the First National Bank of Moscow. It may serve as a little tip on the sit uation and help you to get started. "Yours very truly, "NATIONAL APPLE SHOW, "By Ren H. Rice, Secy." he held the Giants helpless until the ninth when they were given a run for charity's sake. The Giants scored in the first inning, Philadelphia failed. The second inn ing was a blank for both teams» In that had the Athletics protested he would have called Doyle out; that Doyle, in making the slide, missed the sack. When the report was called to the attention of Umpire Klem he said that there was nothing to it; that Doyle did not touch the plate. As the result of the careless inspec tion of a gun Helmer Hellerud of Park, lies at the point of death in the Carith ers' hospital in this city. The young man attempted to shoot at a target, but his revolver failed to go off. Turning the barrel toward himself he "broke" the gun and in the action it exploded. The bullet entered the left side of the abdomen, barely missing the stom ach, and lodged in his body. He was brought by automobile to lows who feel they cannot put in 630 boxes. MEXICAN REBELS ARE AT OATES OF CAPITAL You may advise them that 525 will be enough. "Latah county has the world's rec ord for the best keeping apples, as MEXICO, Oct. 26.—With the Zeap atista rebel army within four miles of the city an engagement between them and the national troops is hour ly expected. The rebels number be tween 2000 and 3000. Mexico is facing another big crisis. The rebels are already in control of three states and other states are ready to follow, they assert. $200,000 STATE LOAN BOISE, Oct. 26.—(Special to The Star-Mirror)—There is now in the hands of the state treasurer $200,000 in state funds now available for loans on farm mortgages at six per cent. Within sixty days there will be added to this another two hundred thousand dollars, a total of $400,000. This money is to be divided among the counties of the state, but at this date there are but three applications from Latah county. The state land board wants to place a just proportion of this cheap money in Latah county. If the farmers want it they should get busy at once. No Light Bread There. TACOMA, Oct. 26.—Following the exposure frauds in short weights in the bread loaves of this city the city council has drawn up ironclad ordin ances covering weights and measures, which it will soon pass on. The stift est of penalties are provided. World's Cham Series. the third, Lord hit scoring Thomas. In the fourth inning Baker started things with a single and before the side was retired four had crossed the fourth sack. Score four a two-bagger, to one. Both blanked in the fifth. The sixth was another blank for New York, while the Athletics started the fire works that turned the score into a cer tain victory for them. They made seven runs in this Inning. During the seventh Bender held the Giants hitless. In turn the Athletics fairly gallopped around the bases. Lord, Old ring, Collins and Baker got across the plate; then Barry torn off a two-bag ger, scoring Murphy. Ames was yank ed out of the box and Marquad put in to stop the slaughter. It din't stop. He made a wild pitch and both Davis and Barry romped in. Apparently con fused Myers started an argumept with the umpire, claiming three out. Umpire Connolly fired him from the game. PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 26.—Pitcher Coombs is seriously ill from injuries received in yesterday's game. It is now given out that an operation will not be necessary. He was hurt when he caught his foot in the pitcher's box while delivering the ball in the sixth inning, sustaining internal injuries. Despite the intense pain he stuck to his post until the tenth when he gave up. PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 26.—A re port credited to Umpire Klem, gained circulation here after yesterday's game to the effect that in the run which gave the game to New York, Captain Doyle of the Giants did not touch the home plate. The report says The capitol is practically defense less. A big crowd gathered today at the city hall and shouted for the rebels whom Madero claims he will have whipped in a few days after his in augration to the presidency on Nov. 5. If the Zaepatists overthrow the fédérais the inaugration probably will not be held. Wire communication was severed this morning. FUNDS TO AT 6 PER CENT Here is an opportunity to relieve any money stringency that may exist in this section. Latah county farmers ought to borrow as much as the state will place here, thus turning loose a lot of local money that will be forced to hunt borrowers in competition with the six per cent money of the state. Easier money will tend to liven up things in all lines. By all means do not. let this cheap money get away. Othere sections are ready to take it. The state is looking for long time j circulated over the country at once. Use the phone. loans, but will accept short ones. The farmers should see that this news is All that remains to be done is to give the last touches to the varnish on the handsome woodwork, to put the furniture in place, and to clean the Give Hill His Steel. NEW YORK. Oct. 26.—The direc tors of the United States steel corpor ation today recommended the cancell ation of their lease on the iron ore properties of the Great Northern rail road, which would run until Jan. 1, 1915, LATAH COUNTY APPLES HOLD The following letter from R. H. Rice, secretary of the National Apple show of Spokane, contains so much of in terest to the general public that we take the liberty of publishing it. When we consider that what Mr. Rice says about our apples and the loss we are sustaining because of past indiffer ences, there ought to be cause for serious thinking on the part of our citizens. The letter in full follows: "Spokane, Wn., Oct. 24, 1911. Mr. P. L. Orcutt, Editor Star-Mirror, Moscow, Idaho. Dear Mr. Orcutt: Since you were up here several weeks ago we have had nothing in the shape of in formation about what Latah or Moscow propose to do in the matter of ex hibits at the National Apple show. "I note occasionally in your paper your efforts to induce the business men and growers to wake up to the im portance of this opportunity, and I do not know whether you can do much more than this, but the situation now confronting us is as follows: "We are receiving actual carload en tries and we cannot hold spacè for any probable exhibits if in doing so we shut out growers who are making bon afide entries. If you have any grow ers down there who can put in in dividual carloads they must get their entries in right away to hold space. You understand, of course, that in order to compete for prizes a carload must be grown in one orchard only. Several growers cannot combine in putting in a car, unless they put it in for exhibition and not for competi tion. If some of your growers wish to do this, we will be glad to give you space, but, as stated before, it could WOULD FREE ON An attempt to secure the release of E. J. Gemmill, from the custody of the sheriff of Latah county has result ed in the issuance or a writ of habeas corpus by the state supreme court. Gemmill is under arrest under the Idaho law prohibiting the sending of public printing out of the state. The state's charge is that Gemmill, who is Latah's assessor, had tax sales cer tificates printed in Spokane. District IN NEW POSTOFFICE AFTER The federal building will be ready for occupancy next Sunday, and after that date the post office will be at home in its new quarters. The basement and first floors will be devoted to the post office. In the Go On Into Oregon. KLAMATH, Ore., Oct. 26.—More Great Northern construction through central Oregon has been ordered ac cording to the announcement made WORLD'S RECORD you are doubtless aware, and each suc ceeding year that the county fails to put in an exhibit here loses for you an advertising opportunity that can not be duplicated. All other sections which have long keeping apples and highly colored such as yours, grasp every opportunity to keep the fact be fore the public, while Latah county with the world's record on the ap ples, shown by Judge Forney for the past three years, passes up the chance. As a result, any other section with the same kind of land as you have is being sold at prices far beyond anything realized by you people. "I mention these things because I want Latah county properly represent ed. You should not only have carload enries, but Latah county should put in a general district display. For this we could give a space (similar to all others) 16 feet frontage by 8 feet depth, and you may put in any num ber of variety or varieties, arranged in boxes, barrels or on shelves and dec orated as you wish. You may dis tribute literature and, of course, have a representative in charge to tell of the resources of your county, etc. To make such an exhibit it does not re quire over 50 one layer boxes, and I believe you have enough public-spirit ed growers who would contribute the apples if the business men would de fray the expense. The expense would be that of shipping the fruit to Spo kane, placing it on exhibition and buy ing one season ticket for the man in charge. This later is a requirement we make of our exhibitors. It costs $1.50. "If your commercial body will take hold of this, advise me at once and I CEMMILL "HABES CORPUS » Attorney Suppiger is prosecuting the case, assisted by Morgan and Morgan. G. G. Pickett defends. The supreme court will hear the case in Lewiston in a few days, and it will then be determined if Gemmill, who has been bound over for trial in the district court, will be released from the custody of the sheriff. The con stitutionality of the printing law is the question the supreme court will determine.

It is hinted that the Japanese mob ilization at Kiushu have been caused by the possibilities of Ger many's activity. Keen interest in what Britain will do if the charge is confirmed is be ing manifested here. Germany and England are both bitter over the Chinese trade. It is regarded as not impossible that the ultimate result will be the dis memberment of China.
