At the conclusion of the ceremo nies many costly presents were be stowed upon the newly consecrated bishop. These included a set of solid mitres from the alumni of Troy sem inary, where Father Colton studied; a costly gold crozier from St. Steph en's parish, and an Episcopal ring from the school children of his old parish. Rt. Rev. Charles H. Colton. the new Bishop of Buffalo, was born in New- York city in IS4B. He was gradu ated from St. Xavier's college in the class of 1573. and was ordained a priest at St. Joseph's seminary in Troy in 1876. His first pastorate was at St. Stephen's, New York city, as assistant to the late Dr. McGlynn. Father Colton remained at St. Steph en's until 1886, when he was sent to Port Chester, but the year following, when Dr. McGlynn's difficulties threw St. Stephen's parish into a turmoil and resulted in his excommunication. Father Colton was recalled, and was entrusted with the difficult task of building up a harmonious spirit in the parish and at the same time wiping out a threatening debt. The result of a few years' work was that St. Steph en's parish was reunited, the debt was cleared from the church, and St. Stephen's school was established as one of the strongest of its kind in New York. By this service Father Colton won the highest esteem in ec clesiastical circles, and in 1896 Arch bishop Corrigan made him chancellor of the diocese, to succeed Mgr. Moon ey, when the latter became vicar gen eral. The diocese of Buffalo, to which Bishop Colton has been elevated, was established in 1847. It has an area of nearly 7.000 square miles. The estimated Catholic population is 171.- -000, and there are in the diocese 243 priests, 150 churches. 73 parish schools, and 23.659 scholars. MONTANA WOOL GROWERS. Great Falls. Mont..

Keene Shows That He Is Greatiy Worried—Something New for Him. New York, July 25.—The stock mar. ket opened feverishly this morning and fell away from last night's clos ing prices. The principal losses in stocks were directly connected with yesterday's failures. For the first time in a long and checkered career James Keene today showed the ef fects of his defeat. The market again became wild near the close and there were many vio lent changes. The disorder continued until the end. The closing wa3 ner vous and irregular.

Davis, command ing the division of the Philippines, will be placed on the retired list to morrow by operation of age limit. Several important changes and pro motions among high army officers fol low as a consequence of his retire ment and the eventual result will be to place Brig. Gen. Leonard Wood in command of the Philippines in a short time. The retirement of Gen. Davis places Major General James F. Wade in command of the Philippines and promotes Brig. Gen. Samuel S. Sum ner to the vacancy in the grade of major-general. Major-General Wade is now second in command in the archipelago, and Sumner is next to Wade. Both these veteran officers have been in the Philippines for near ly three years. Sumner having had service in China under Chaffee be fore going to the islands. In recog nition of their long service Wade is to be brought home and assigned to the command of a department. The same course will be followed in the case of Sumner, thus leaving Gen. Wood the senior military officer and in supreme command. With the retirement of General Davis the government loses one of its ablest and most honorable and use ful servants. His career, covering more than forty years, has been full of honor and credit, and few officers of the army have served the flag- in more widely-separated localities. He first entered the service as a quarter master sergeant of the 11th Connecti cut volunteers. Nov. 27, 1861, and ad vanced through various grades to that of major in 1865. He entered the reg ular army as a captain of infantry in 1867. was promoted to colonel in 1899, and to brigadier general in 1901, hav ing served as brigadier-general of volunteers during the Spanish war. and was appointed governor general of Porto Rico.

More Ground Purchased for State In- Institution. Pullman. —Valuable additions to {he grounds of the Washington Agricul tural college have recently been made by purchase and gifts of lands ad joining the college campus on both the north and south. A strip of land on the north side of the campus has been donated by N. W. Magee and Harvey Welty. This strip lies just north of the girl's dormitory, from which it is separated by a narrow street of only thirty feet. It was feared that homes might be built on this street, thus shutting off the view and crowding the dormitory, and the owners donated a strip of land which will prevent any buildings being erect ed within several hundred f«et of the dormitory. Purchases have been made of twen ty-nine lots in Mount View addition just south of the college campus. The lota were 301 1 at reasonable prices and a str.'p ninety fe?: wide by 700 feet "nng is thus added to tho campus, j while other lets scattered through the: addition give good building sites for certain buildings which will be erect- j •1 for the school. Among these are j ■he creamery, livestock, paviliion and j hospital for contagious diseases. All j these buildings being cf wood, it is j iesired to get them a sufficient (lis- Lance from the main buildings to pren vent danger of fire, and it is desired j :o get the hospital far enough away t 0 prevent any danger of contagion.

Mayor and School Director Hunt, after selling thousands of dollars worth of supplies to the city and to the school district in direct violation of laws that he took a solemn oath to uphold, now pretends to he suffering some compunctions of conscience and he refuses to allow the Statesman to have the contract for city advertising, to which it is entitled as the lowest bidder, for the alleged reason that he is a stockholder in the Statesman Pub. lishing Company and therefore would have an indirect interest in the con tract. If Gilbert Hunt is a stockhold er in the Statesman Publishing Com pany, he has attained that honor only within the last few days and for the express purpose of beating the paper out of the contract to which it is en titled. According to his own statement made a few weeks ago. Gilbert Hunt paid for two of the four shares that were acquired by David Miller, one of the organizers of the States man company in 1900. At that time Mr. Hunt says he did not care to be a shareholder in the company and put up the money merely to accommodate Mr. Miller. He now seeks t have these two shares transferred to him in order that he may plead such ownership as a bar to the awarding of the city adver tising to tbe Statesman company. The Stat- sman is pleased to know that Mayor Hunt is beginning to see the error of his ways and that he is resoived to turn over a new leaf. However, to prove the sincerity of his remorse for his flagrant violations of law he should "bring forth fruits meet for repentance." He should make restitution to the city for the money he made out of the Worley contract, the Paine school, repair of the rock crusher for the use of private con tractors, and other jobs of which he knows more than anybody else under the clandestine system of covering up the financial transactions of the city. He has acknowledged that "the lit tle iron bands and the little iron rods" made by his foundry for-Worley for something over five hundred dollars "could have been made by any black smith in the city," and thu s he has confessed that there was no excuse for his violation of the law in that in stance. The machine organ says that the Scholl flume cost the city $4,000. As the public knows only of the ex penditure of $3,000 on the contract and in the settlement of the infringe ment of the Allen patent by the may or's foundry, perhaps he will explain where that other thousand dollars went. The Statesman's profits out of the city advertising under the Hunt ad ministration have not been enough to pay even devil's wages, and if the mayor sees fit to deprive thi's paper of the contract entirely in order to throw J&EAUTIFUL SILVER DEPOSIT BOTTLES. Martin Jewelry Company. a little more sop to the machine or gan, he is free to do so provided he keeps within the pale of the law something that he has not heretofore troubled himself to do. FACTS ABOUT CITY EXPENDI TURES. The report of City Clerk Reynolds shows that the total disbursements of the city last year were $151,720.24. Two years ago the total revenues of the city, including the water depart ment, did not exceed $90,000. Last year the total revenues were a little in excess of $133,000. Besides this the city treasurer had on hand at the be ginning of the year $17,111.01 left over by the Babcock administration. At the beginning of this fiscal year, on July 1, there was left in the city treasury only $3,280.96. and this would have been wiped out had all outstand ing warrants been paid. It will be seen from these figures that during the last two years tne ex penditures of the city government have increased about fifty thousand dollars a year. What the city has to show for this enormous increase in disbursements is not easy to see. Only a few of the streets of the city show any improvement and most of them are still in anything but a satis factory condition. The city has erect ed no new buildings except a shed to house the new $3550 steam roller. The only substantial improvement is the new standpipe and pumping station in Isaacs addition, for which $2500 was expended. The annual reports of the city clerk and of the city treasurer prove noth ing more conclusively than the fact that the Hunt administration is the most extravagant this city ever had. The tax rate has been higher than ever before and the revenues from saloon licenses and miscellaneous sources have been greater than ever before, yet the disbursements have kept pace with the increased receipts. The only reason why more money was not expended was because it was not on hand. It has been only within the last year that the cost of the city government has been near that of the county gov ernment, but for the last fiscal year the city expenses exceeded the county disbursements by about twenty-one thousand dollars. The city treasurer paid out in round numbers $151,000, while the county treasurer paid out $130,000. These are the hard facts and they must be faced by the taxpayers of this city. They cannot be overcome by saying that the mayor personally is a good, clean, kind, affable, lovable man, whom everybody likes. What the people should demand is a good, clean business administration of the city and if they get that they can get along with fewer smiles and less amiability on the part of public offi cials. One of the commissioners declares that the poor house will be built in spite of all the newspapers may say against the proposition. The same defiant spirit was shown by some offi cials of the city during the last year, but the result of the recent municipal election shows that the people some times assert themselves. That is just what they will do in overthrowing the machine in the county election next year. The extra tax of three or four mills that will be levied next year to pay for that poor house will make more votes against the machine than all that could be done by its oppo nents. A Missouri editor was fined five hundred dollars by the state supreme court because he had the honesty and courage to condemn the court for mak ing a ruling that saved a convicted St. Louis boodler from going to the penitentiary. The editor was ad judged guilty of contempt. That his opinion of the court is shared by many good citizens was proven by the ova tion given him on his return from the state capital and the promptness with which his fine was paid by his fellow townsmen. No good citizen could have any feeling but contempt for vjudges who use their exalted positions to serve a corrupt political machine. CARDINAL GIBBONS ON LATE POPE. Deeper and broader investigation in the Scriptures and science as been urged by him with special insistence and emphasis, and to this effect have THE EVENING BTATEBMAN, SATURDAY, JULY 25, 1903. been issued encyclicals remarkable for their loftiness of thought as well as for the purity and elegance of their style. During these twenty-five years his piety and zeal have been no less con spicuous- than his enlightmerst. Noting evils which must necessarily threaten both individuals and society from the prevalence of divorce, he has described in words that burn the bouty and holiness of Christian mar riage, and implored his children never to depart from those ideals of the married state which have been the church's glory during all these years of her marvelous existence. In like manner, equally alive to the dangers that threaten society and governments from lack of Christian education and from the existence of communistic and nihilistic organizations, which recog nize no rights, either of God or man, his far-reaching voice has ever rung out in warning and condemnation. It is in his larger sphere of international life, in the affairs of nations, that hip wisdom, prudence and foresight have excited the admiration of the world, and won for him unstinted encomi ums from the greatest contemporary statesmen. In troublous times, in national crises, when the peace and order of powerful nations have been at stake, appeals were made to him for intervention and arbitration. And not in vain. His tact, absolute fair ness, his spirit of prudent conciliation —the principal elements of his ge ni'us —invested him with a moral pow er, a moral influence, and a moral grandeur not less remarkable than rare in times like these, when physi cal force and enormous wealth play so important a part in the world's prog ress. —Cardinal Gibbons in Collier's. One of the late Pope Leo's physi sians characterized as phenomenal the tremendous vitality revealed dur ing the pontiff's last illness. A sound mind in a sound body, a healthy and sympathetic interest in humanity, a sane, and natural love for life, a spirit ual sweetness that assured unfailing vital poise, the the the thad the the soul-poise, go far to account for the who has now put off his mortality. The perfectly balanced man, physical ly and psychologically, lives a long and useful and' happy life, closed by a tranquil death. THE IMMIGRATION PERIL. Immigration statistics now just pulished. show that 857,046 foreigners came to this country during the fiscal year ending June 30 last. This was an incrpase of more than 200,000 over the 1902 record. It is expected that 1,000,000 immigrants will reach these shores during the current year. In these figures remembering the undesirable character of the great mass of immigrants of the present day. there is a vital argument for stricter laws governing the admission of aliens. It is not at all a question of hostil ity toward worthy foreigners who wish to enjoy the blessings of life un der our free institution:;. I. !s a Ques tion of national defense against a squalid, ignorant and erime-taintec invasion. Immigration Commissioner Sargent rightly calls attention to the peril of the present situation. The matter should receive the most earnest con sideration, and action to restrict im migration within limits advantageous to this country may well be taken. Of the one million or more immi grants likely to seek admission at our ports this year, it is safe to say that a majority would not be permitted to enter if American interests were prop erly protected. DISINTERESTED JOURNALISM.. Being unable to procure one ready made, the Philadelphia ring is going to have a newspaper made to order; made to order in a double sense, since the new organ will be created to serve blindly, to further the propagation of the ring's deceit and assist its mach inations. Greatly to the credit of journalism, it is explained that not one of the Philadelphia papers accords full sup port to the republican "organization" in that city. This credit is empha sized by the fact that several of the papers are what might be ordinarily termed bigoted partisans, strong not only for republican principles but for the party, inclined to bolt all that is not the party's—but they gag and strain at what is the republican ring's. Indeed. these staunch republican journals are the bitterest enemies of the local department of Quay's mon strous engine. One of the ring's heads is out with the modest statement that the new or gan will be a "party organ." such be ing "absolutely necessary." Coming so shortly after the ring governor's efforts to throttle the exist ing press and stiffe its protests, the announcement of a forthcoming "straight" ring paper, devoted body and soul to the notorious purposes which the world has long observed moving in Philadelphia, excites no great surprise. It was. perhaps, to have been expected that Pennypack erism would follow its defeat by a bold move and new mischief. There is nothing specially original in a ring's establishing a mouthpiece of its own. Locking through hind sight, it would seem to have been wiser on the ring's part to content itself with merely breaking into the paper business on its own hook, instead of attempting first to drive the decent journals out of business. The game would have been less easily understood. What a picture would Philadelphia present if Pennypacker's double scheme could be worked. Respectable utterance bound and gagged and a ring trumpet leading public opinion! On the whole it seems a good thing that our ancestors invented and our Constitution safeguarded freedom. THE BIG SHOW COMING. Ringling Brothers Exhibit the Rarest Collection of Animals in the World. The announcement that Ringling Brothers' World's Greatest Shows will exhibit in Walla Walla Thursday, Aug. 13. is one that will be hailed with de light by every man, woman and child in Walla Walla and the surrounding country. "All the world loves a cir cus." and this especially true of the one owned by Kingling Brothers, which is transported from city to city in five splendidly equipped trains —85 double length cars in all—which are equal in size and carrying capacity to IT ordinary cars. The Ringling Brothers, scrupulously honest in their various systems of advertising, have long made the unchallenged claim of possessing the biggest, and best and most entertaining collection of high class novelty features and rare wild animals in all the world. This is es pecially true of the mammoth menag erie, which contains, by actual count. 108 cages, lairs, dens and tanks of beast, fowl and aquatic species from every jungle, plain and ocean on the face of Mother Earth. Prominent among the hundreds of perfect zoolo gical specimens in this unrivalled de partment are two beautiful giraffes, the last of an almost distinct race. These animals were secured at an enormous cost and to the Ringling Brothers they are priceless. Scient ists and students of natural history say they are the lone living members of their kind. In order to keep them alive in the trying climate of the Unit, ed States they are given more atten tion than a baby secures from its proud and loving parents. The gi raffes are transported in specially con structed cages, the tops of which are raised and lowered at will. Cages of this kind are dispensible on account of the great height of the animals. The walls of the cages are thickly pad dde with curled hair and fine wire springs to prevent possible injury to the occupants. Their food is pre pared according to scientific rules laid down by famous veterinarians. Another feature of t iis collossal men agerie, one that is in keeping with tae progressiveness that is a part of tbe Ringling Brothers' success as amuse ment projectors, is "Baby Boo." the only baby elephant bred, born aad successfully reared in captivity in North America. "Baby Boo' was born January 8, 1903, is just thirty inches nigh, weighs but 119 pounds, and is as cute and full of life as a fox ter rier puppy. She is the pride of the menagerie and with her fond mother is the pampered pet of the herd of forty big and little elephants carried by Ringling Brothers this year. The forty brutes, the largest in all an imal creation, are more than half of all the elephants in captivity. The in fant member of this big herd is as fat and as round as a butter ball fresh from the churn, and greatly enjoys the attention showered upon her by the thousands of children who daily visit the big tent. The rhinoceros in an other rare animal in this interesting menagerie. It has been many years since an animal of this kind has been exhibited in either a circus or a zool ogical collection, and the one in Ring ling Brothers' circus is said to be thei sole survivor of this kind. The gnu,' or horned horse, the Eland, the yakj from the highlands of Thibet, the mon ster hippopotamus, the vlack vlarck from South Africa, the cassowary, seals and sea lions, the pure white Chinese pea fowls, and the sacred cat tle of India, are to be found only in this menagerie, which also contains magnificent specimens of the lion, tiger, puma, hyena, buffalo and pan ther, herds of camels, fifty species of deer, and other animals and birds from every quarter of the globe. This collection of the flower of the animal kingdom is worth a fortune alone and j stands alone in its magnitude and di versity of subjects. Ringling Broth-j ers present, also, a thrilling 61 -horse act, 375 aerial, menage, equestrian! and acrobatic artists in their circus performance, 40 famous clowns, and the most lavish spectacular produc tion ever attempted, a superb present ation of Jerusalem and the Crusades, in which 1200 characters are shown. Two complete performances and a magnificent free street pageant are given daily. Reserve seats can be secured on the day of the exhibition, as well as general admission tickets at the same prices as charged on the show grounds at Tallman's City Drug Store.

Spokane—Plans are about com pleted for what will-be, for some time to come, at least, one of the longest electric railroads in Eastern Wash ington. Calvin Lunceford, president of the Adams County Electric Transit company, gives the following details of the prospective enterprise. He states that a company was organized a few days ago for the purpose of de veloping water power at Palouse falls and constructing an electric line from Washtucna north through Ritzville to some point on the Great Northern railroad. The statement is given out that the road will go through Ritzville. Mohler. Harrington. Davenport, Med ical Lake and into Spokane. Contracts to Be Let. The company will be ready to let contracts for building the dam at Pa louse falls in a few days. The dam will be 1.600 feet long," 26 feet high, 17 feet wide at the bottom and about 5 feet wide at the top. It will be tho largest concrete dam in the world and will cost $140,000. it is expected to develop 5.10 ft horse power at low water. The water comes from Rock lake, a body of water about ten miles long and three-fourths of a mile wide. The electric road will be about 140 miles long and is expected to cost about $8,000 per mile. It will tap 14,- -000 sections of the finest wheat land in the world and it is expected the road will be ready to move the 1904 crop. Read the coupon offers in the Statesman. WHOLESALE DEALERS.

Tammany .and Mr. Nixon did not agree very well that which be accepted the leadership of The wigwam and it is well known that Mr. Nixon would accept the nom ination under no other condition than that winch he accepted the leadrship of the organization, that is. that a policy ol honesty and decency be ad- >erv noruTirwth'tbo w?

It is stated that a numebr of Long Island dairymen are compelled to wash their cows twice a day with a mixture oi carbolic acid and crude oil. Gossip has it that the gubernatorial bee is buzzing in the bonnet of ex- Lieutenant Governor Timothy L. Woodruff. Mr. Woodruff is not con sider a man of extraordinary capaci ty, yet there is no limit to his ambi tions. It will be remembered that he greatly desired the republican nomi nation for vice president at the Phil adelphia convention. He has been a standing candidate for the United States senate. The merchant who has a store on the line of the subway these days is considered an unlucky man. It is es mated that property owners and mer chants here on one street alone, the boulevard, which has been in chaotic state for over a year on account of the tunnel building, have suffered losses at the rate of nearly $1,000,000 a year. Hundreds of houses have been vacated on account of the noise and danger of blasting, the street in places is al most impassable and is avoided by ev ery one who can take another, so that the building of the tunnel here is proving a rather heroic treatment of the transportation ills. Archery, the sport so reminiscent of "Merrie England" and Robin Hood and Maid Marian, threatens to be come' very popular here. An archery club, to be known as a sort of annex to the Huntington Manor Golf club, with an initial membership if seven teen women and men has been formed. The club colors are Lincoln green and on field days the women will ap pear in skirts of that color and the men in shooting coats of the same shade. New York probably has the larg est list of depositors in savings hanks of any city in the country. Of the 2,250,000 people in the state who put their money in savings hanks, 1,500,- -000 are in New Y r ork. Bankers are authority for the statement that since July 1, however, the withdrawal of de posits has been larger than for many years. One reason for this is said to be the number of strikes that have been on this summer; another is that the low price of storks has tempted many depositors to take their money from saving banks where they can get only 3 or 3% per cent and put it into dividend paying securities. In the near future a seven story business house will stand on the site of the present "Boss"' Tweed home on Madison evenue, which is one of the most famous residences in the city. The property has just been sold !to a realty company. It was from this old mansion that Tweed, disguised with wis and gold spectacles, escaped in IS7S while officers with warrants i for his arrest were watching the house. Tweed let himself down from one of the rear windows and made j his way to Florida. In Spain he was j recognized from one of Xast's car -1 toons. THE EVENING STATESMAN, SATURDAY, JULY 25, 1903. *I^Pfl :o harmonize warring factions In ihe committee and shake it from its leth argy as a campaign factor. Mr. Bruce s a lawyer with offices in Wall street. He has done valuable service to the republican party as a campaign spf hog feeding, and gave a number of nstances of pork brought to his notice while at work in the various sections >f the Inland Empire, through which he is constantly traveling. He gave out the following statement on this subject: "Kiddle Bros., the extensive live stock shippers and feeders of Island City, Or., are now feeding about 2000 bead of hogs, and Mr. Kiddle says they are producing one pound of pork with three pounds of wheat. W: 3 hogs ai 6 cents per pound. live weight, vlr. Kiddle says they get $1.10 a bushel tor their wheat when fed to hogs. They now have 480 head of hogs weighing from 230 to 300 pounds each, and 150 pigs running in a field of five acres of alfalfa. They feed these hogs a small amount of millfeed and have a lot of them constantly ready for market. They have had this number >f hogs and pigs in this small field since April 1, yet will cut three tons of hay per acre from the field. A new lot of hogs are put in the field when one lot is shipped out. This firm ships to both Portland and Omaha. "Maj. Townley, of Union. Or., who is an extensive Shorthorn breeder and grain farmer, says that he has been making a series of experiments during the past winter in feeding hogs and has been able to produce one pound of pork from three pounds of wheat, and that at the present price of pork he '■an realize from $1 to $1.10 per bushel for his wheat when fed to hogs. In some of the tests made a pound of pork was produced with less than three pounds of wheat fed. He now has on hand about 2300 bushels of last year's wheat, which he expects to market by feeding to hogs and selling the hogs. "Prof. H. T. French, of the Univer sity of Idaho, who was formerly pro fessor of agriculture in the Oregon agricultural college, told me that he made a number of tests and experi ments while with the latter institu tion, and found that he could produce a pound of pork with three pounds of wheat fed to hogs. It seems to me that when such good authority as these men say this can be done it will pay the farmers of the Palouse coun try to investigate and see if they can not improve on their present methods and produce more pork, for the de mand in the Northwest is constantly increasing at a more rapid rate than is the production of this necessary staple." Mormons Celebrate 50th Anniversary.

SHORT IN ACCOUNTS. Baker City,Or. —About a week ago the traveling auditor of the O. R. N. came to Baker City and checked up the accounts of tue station. It was known at the start that Cashier George W. Breaw was short, and he was dismissed from the service of the company, although he assisted the auditor in checking the station. Two or three days ago Mr. Breaw left the city, and yet there is nothing to show that he went away on account of his shortage. The exact amount of the shortage is not known, but it understood to be less than $200. al though Agent Hallock does not care ;o talk about the matter until the return of Sheriff Brown, who went in search of the young man. Breaw was bonded by the Guaranty company. Clip out the Business College cou pons in the Statesman. Wisconsin Catholics Organize.

He told himself that be Lad never lived before and that somehow he was just beginning. "No," he mused as be sat in his train homeward bound, "I can't tell Alan.

THE EVENING STATESMAN, SATURDAY, JULY 25, 1903. AMATEURS WON LIVELY GAME Cavalry Fell Down Near Close of Ten Innings. Jake Sehiffner's amateurs won a pretty game yesterday from the Ninth Cavalry in the presence of a small crowd of enthusiastic fans. The game was interesting from the start, and was generally considered as good ball as has been seen this season on the local grounds. McCool, played left field, and his work with the stick sur prised his admirers. Buehet played a star game as short, while "Kid" Parks knocked fouls innumerable and lost seven balls in the lawn of the maiden lady who refuses to allow boys to gather lost balls and return them to the field. In all 12 balls were lost yesterday. Score by Innings. Walla W r alla ..1 0 0 0 0 0 0 3 1 3—B Ninth Cavalry 0020020 0 1 I—6 Summary. Earned runs —Walla Walla 4. Ninth Cavalry 3.

The game tomorrow promises to bo interesting and the attendance will likely prove satisfactory. People will certainly appreciate the class of ball given, if ball is wanted at ali. and Manager Schniffer promises to give a fast and furious game for all those who patronize the park tomorrow. McDonald, who pitched a splendid game last Sunday will be in the box again, and the other members of the team will be: Lankard. catcher: Brown, first base; Auburn second base; Fisher, third; Buchet. short: Parks, left field: Gray, center; McGucken, right field. The success of the game tomorrow will have much to do with the future of ball ia this city this season. If the attendance is light the fact will have a bad effect ui>on the promorers of the game, and further efforts will not receive the encouragement de served. On the other hand a good at tendance of enthusiastic people will encourage every one, and the people who have spent time and money to promote good ball will feel partially repaid for the t ."fort. Cotton Crop r /ny Be Still Larger Washinngto) C. July 25. —In spUe of predict. from the south that cotton cultivation in the south is diminishing and ;hat ravages of the Mexican cotton-boll weevil and the lack of necessary labor will prevent the cotton output from ever again reaching its former figures, informa tion gathered at the department of agriculture shows that the officials of the department whose work it is to study cotton conditions, are of tho opinion that cotton growing has not reached its zenith. In speaking of the future prospects of the cotton crop, John Hyde, statistician of the depart ment, says: "ff the ravages of the cotton-boll weevil can be prevented, I do not be lieve that the time is far distant when this country will produce 20,00,000 bales oof cotton annually. At present the boll weevil undoubtedly consti tutes a serious menace to 't. It is not only the actual damage that this insect does that operates against the increase of the production of cotton in certain districts, but its moral ef fect in discouraging planters from setting out large crops, is also very serious." BAKER'S STREETS OF GOLD. Baker City, July 25. —Gold has been discovered in the streets here. A man digging a water main ditch struck rich pay gravel. A few feet further he struck a stream of water.
