DIAMOND DUST.

Chris Won der Abe has made more
deals than all the magnates put together,
and his latest is the engagement of Um-
pire Tim Hurst as manager of the 1898
Browns.
President Freedman wasn't the man to
let the meeting go over without his name
being inscribed on the ''swap" book. He
buckled to the st. Louis magnate duriug
the morning hours, and it was announced
that "Michael Angelo" Grady, ex-big
chief of the Philadelphia Yanigans, and
late of st. Louis, with Third Baseman
Hartman Of the same club, had been ex-
changed with $500 on the side, for
Jimmy Donnelly and Lucky" Holmes.

RetardinC Peach-Bud Opening,

ST.. LOUIS, Mo-, Nov. l2.-The Missouri
Experimental Station r"ports success in
retarding the opening Of fruit buds on
peach trees by Whitening the expert
ments extending over two years. 1t is
done by spraying the trees with white
wash, the first spraying being done about
the last of December, with three subse-
quent sprayings to keep the trees thor
oughly coated until spring. The white
wash was composed of four parts water,
one part skinned milk, and enough
freshly sIaked lime to make the mixture
as thick Il wash as could be pumped
through Bordeaux mixture spray noz-
zle without clogging The whtened
buds remained dormant until April,
while unprotected buds swcllcd during
warm days late in February and early
in March. About so per cent. Of the
whitencd buds passed the winter safely,
while only 20 per cent of tie unwhit-
ened buds cscaned winter killing.

terday on the links Of the Ardsley Club.
Some odd turn of goiting luck has de-
creed this season that the weather at
Ardsley, whenever the women have
claimed the links, should be unfavorable,
while the men have received nothing but
sunshine for their portion. Fortunately
the foggy morning indicated to the most
careless weather critic that the day was
sure to be rainy one, and the women
arrived well equipped for stormy ex-
perience. They made the rounds snugly
wrapped up in woolen sweaters and golf
capes, in brave defiance of the pelting
downpour. While it could hardly be
termed pleasant outing, not a player
complained, and there was not single
withdrawal.

He had already demonstrated his worth

The Brown eleven did it's final practice
this afternoon for Saturdays set-to with
the Indians. The whole student body is
preparing to give the team royal send
off tomorrow afternoon, when it starts
for the polo grounds. A brass band will
lead the procession to the station. Capt.
Fultz and the student community expect
to see the Carlisle scalps in Providence
on Sunday morning.
The Indian foot ball team still feels the
effects of the late game in Philadelphia,
but all are coming around. DISCIPLE
marian Thompson expects to have the
whole regular team in the field by next
Saturday, when they play in New York
against Brown. Miller and Wheelock,
who were forced to leave the game on
Saturday, and Jamison, who has not
played for several weeks, are all expec-
ted to play. The Philadelphians have
not been giving the Indians credit for
what they did do, and are trying by
every conceivable method to excuse what
was virtually victory for the Indian
team. The idea of Pennsylvania not being
in condition, which is given as one
excuse, can be equally used as an argu-
ment why the Indians did not win.
Pennsylvania had two Sub" ends, both
in good condition, while the Indians
went in with one substitute half and a
guard and half back, Wheelock and
Miller, who had not had on a foot ball
suit for week before they lined up
against Pennsylvania. The whole often
sive play of Pennsylvania was directed
against the two latter players and but
little headway was made until they were
compelled to leave the game, the Indians
leading in the score until that point. 1t
is said that the Indian school foot ball
team has already received $4,000 for its
share of this seasons games.
In spite Of the rainy weather the
Varsity eleven put up some good, snappy
work in their practice on Thursday. All
the men received a lecture for their poor
work Of the day before, and seemed
anxious to make amends. Kelly, Hille-
brand and Baird were absent. The
former was in Philadelphia. where he
had gone to consult surgeon about his
shoulder Hillebrand took much
needed rest, and Baird was undergoing
an examination.

CYCLING.

The bicycle girl who dresses according
to hygienic principle can have her lucky
four-leafed clover, even if she does not
wear round elastic garter with a clasp.
The side elastics have the clover charm
at the clasp, half way down, as they are
worn in mems suspenders. All Of which
sounds like Sanskrit to the man who is
curious enough to look over the cycling
tid-bits for women.

Paddock POiuts.

More talking and no racing, that is the
way things are now. If this could only
be reversed, how much better we would
all be.
The latest news is that the stockhold-
ers are fighting among themselves. Some
are willing to give the 500 purses and
others are inclined to- stand by the Sin
gerly management. Of course, they
know the horscmen have none the best
of the fight, even should they get the 500
asked for tomorrow. Look at the money
they could be getting, if they had
not refused to race; but as some OF
them termed it, might as well not race as
only get S75. Well, this might be the
feeling of some but there are many others
who would be glad to take $75 just now.
Well, even if the racing management do
not give in for four days they don't lose
anything; now it might be that they will
hold out until then but for every day
after November 18th they will COM
mence to lose some very valu-
able dates and when they see these
precious opportunities going by they
will no doubt give in and give the own
ers what they ask. This is no doubt the
reason they are holding off now. They

SHELTER AT CERRILLOS.
Capt Baiue Has Finally Secured of
senator EIkins Desirable Site for
His Projected New Smelter
at the Little Pittsburg.

The NEW MEXICAN is in possession of
exclusive information that the site for
the smelter of the Mary Mining & Smelt-
ing company at Cerrillos has been prac-
tically decided upon and the passing OF
deeds is all that remains to be done be-
fore ground is broken for the extensive
plant.
The site selected consists of about fif-
teen blocks in the original townslte OF
Cerrillos, lying north of the San Marcos
arroyo. The property is owned by SEN
ator Elkins, of West Virginia, and the
distinguished gentleman named has gen
erously wired from Washington his will
ingness to deed the property to the COM
pany named for the purpose indicated.
At the request of Capt. Marion Balue,
president and promoter of the Mary
Mining q Smelling company, Col. R. B.
Wilson, civil engineer of this city,
will leave for Cerrillos tonight to sur
vey the lines for the switch and pipeline
to the proposed new smelter. The
switch will be about 1000 feet long.
When Capt. Balue returns from the car
Donate mines of his company at Kelly,
the New MEXICAN anticipates being able
definitely to say when ground will be
broken for the new smelter.
