Few OF the residents of Cheyenne
have n accurate idea OF the colossal
proportions that the iron mining indus.
try at Hartville is assuming. Norphing
short OF a visit to Badger and a view OF
the ore freighters unloading, can furn-
ish a correct impression OF the doings
Of the camp tha: promises to surpass in
output all the other combined iron mines
OF the west. The past month has been
a record breaker in ore shipments. fully
2 900 tons being taken from the mines,
treighted 10 Badger and shipped from
there to Denver. The Cheyenne and
Northern railroad has been compelled
to borrow engines from the F. E. and
NJ. V. railroad in order to accommodate
the extra freight traffic. Men and horses
have been steadily added to the force
and al the present time fully 700 horses
and 200 men are engaged in mining and
hauling the ore. Notwithstanding THE
large outut, averaging over 100 tons a
day, the supply does not begin to meet
bhe demand and teams and men arc
coming from all parts OF the state. The
prospects are that AS soon as the road
between Hartville and Badger freezes
he traffic will be both increased and
facilitated. 1t is expected that the oper-
atoms will be continued during the en-.
tire winter. with a Few possible stop
pages on account OF bad weather. The
snow storm Saturday evening proved to

was picked up in an almost iifeless con-

There was some satisfaction in the fac,
that later in the day the man who

The trouble at the camp is still brewing

GAME OF GIVE AWAY.
HOOsiers Couldn't Play Poor Enough
Ball to Lose to MiIIers

The Hoosiers tried hard to throw
yesterdays game to the Millers at
Nicollet park, but the latter wouldn't
have 1T and Watkins and his men left
the park with another victory
to their credit; a victory that they
fully deserved, even if they did give
a poor exhibition Of the national game
during the first few innings. When the
Hoosiers went in to bat in the fourth
inning the score stood six to nothing
against them. An error and two hits
gave them a pair. In the fifth the
Millers added one and when the
Hoosiers came to bat in their half of
the sixth the home team still had a
lead of five. Then the slaughter start
cd Hogriever singled and Gray hit
one out to Carney which Billy fumbled.
1t was a hard one to get, however,
right up against the fence, but Bill
had both hands on it and according to
the rules should have got it. Then
Mcfarland found Hutch's delivery and
put one over the right field fence and
three runs came over the plate. Motz
was the next man up and a beautiful
three Dagger left him but little way
from home with no one out. Then
Mccarthy hit high one over right
field. Miller didn't have to move to
get under it, but that made no diff
ference. He let it right through his
hands, and Motz came home. Stewart
followed with a single. Then Flynn
sacrificed and Wood sent one down to
Ball, who caught Mccarthy at the
plate. Wood tried to reach second,
but was thrown out and the side was
retired with the score tied.
Figgemeier was in the box in the
sixth and he shut the visitors out. In
the seventh Motz singled and stole
second. Mccarthy was the first of the
visitors to strike out. Stewart sent
one into left field for a base which
Carney fielded beautifully, threw TO
Eustace, who threw to Ball, and
caught Motz at the plate 1t was a
pretty piece of work, but the fans
were in poor condition to enjoy it.
Singles by Flynn and Wood followed
and Stewart came home and the yisi-
tors had lead of one.
Hogriever hit to Ball in the eighth
and went out at first. Gray sent one
to Figgemeier which was beautifully
fumbled and then Mcfarland picked
Roat out as an easy mark and dropped

taken proper care of himself he should have
been a star of the first magnitude today, but
success turned his head He began to drink.
With drink came other dissipation and a de-
fiance of discipline until, in spite Of his abil-
tiles, he found himself RELOCATED to lower
ranks. Then he drank the harder, and the
rest of the descent into Avernus was rapid.
There came a time when no club would en-
ploy him. For while he lived on the charity
of old comrades, but that means soon wore
out The next step was that Of tramp.
Then his eyes failed and he was sent to a
hospital. Finally the brain gave way, and
his life went out just as it should have been
at the flood tide of success.
Yet, with this and other examples before
them as warnings, dozens more in the pro-
fession will tread the same downward, deadly
path. If players would only compare the
professional careers of Arson and Baldwin,
1t is hard to understand how any Of them
could choose the latter as a guide.

STILL VERY CLOSE.
Indianapolis Leads the Western by
Narrow Margin.

~
There will be much interest in the
games of the Western league for the
next five days, for it is not improbable
that the pennant will be won and
lost in those days. Beginning on Mon
day, Columbus will be at Milwaukee
for four games, and Indianapolis at
st. Paul for as many more. Both tina
Brewers and Apostles must take
majority Of these games to be in the
fight. Can they do it? The local team
has had another bad week, winding 1t
up, however, in blaze of glory with
the best hitting of the season. Can
it keep up it's gait with the Hoosiers?
We won't be long in finding out. One
of the revelations of yesterdays con-
test was the batting of Kline, the
young catcher. He was lining the
ball out everywhere except where there
were f1elders, and always for more than
one base. With eight weeks Of the
season still before us, the contest for
the flag is the closest in the history
of the league. 1t still looks like In
dianapolis, with Columbus second, but
may there not. be some surprises in
.store?. The Apostles disadvantage
lies in the fact that a considerable
majority of their games are to be
played away from home. Counting the
two postponed games, the team has
yet ffty-SiX to play. The twenty-five
at home are to be played seven with
Indianapolis, four with Grand Rapids,
two with Minnea polls and three each
with Columbus, Detroit Kansas City
and Milwaukee. OF the thirty one
away from home two are at Kansas
City, three at Milwaukee, eight at De-
lumbus and Grand Rapids. The record
of the clubs to date is as follows:
