The game next Sunday will be between
the Antonito team, which stands at the
head OF the column of the San Luis
Valley League in Colorado, and the
Santa Fe Centrals, champions of New
Mexico. The valley press is already
shouting how badly Santa Fe will be
beaten, but they must get out of the
woods before they do much OF it. II
they don't believe 1t now, they will when
they see Charley Rhodes right arm
moving and dealing out the sphere with
the different kinds of question marks he
carries hidden in the muscles OF that
most powerful wing. Yet the home
boys must bear in mind that they will
not have such . picnic as they usually
have when they play the Albuquerque
Browns. They must be out and practice
from now until the game is called,
o'clock p. m.
Thos. J. Helm, the popular Denver
and Rio Grande agent, IS arranging for
an excursisn on that date from Antonito
and he will surely succeed. There will
be q large crowd from the San Luis val
ley accompanying the Atomic team to
their Waterloo. Mr.. Helm states that
an excursion will be given from this end
also when Santa Fe returns the game.

Philadelphia. Feb. oS.-Reports from
| various sections of the state show tina,
the fear of damage from foods is wide
spread.
The Susquehanna river at Wrghts-
vile has reached Il point two inches
higher than the high Water mark of
1860. \ gorge has formed against the
big steel bridge of the PENNSYLVANIA
railroad between Columbia and
Wrightsville, and that structure is in
danger. A wall of ice has been piled
up along the north side of the bridge
from shore to shore as high as the
hand rails. Trains crossed the bridge
during the day. but with extreme eau
ton. y large force of aborers is EN-
ployed keeping the roadway free from
ice.
Below the bridge the ice has moved
out. When it broke the steamer lnyer.

pany was crushed and sunk
Grave Fears For Bridge.
Grave fears are felt for the safety of
the Wrightsville bridge Should the ice
jam against that structure continue it
is believed that further rise will
sweep il away. The big gorge in the
lower river from Turkey hill to Nc
Calls Ferry remains intact.
All further danger from the freshet
in the Schuylkill river in this vicinity
Is passed. Since high tide the water
has been steadily receding and the
stream is practically free from ice.
During the night the river swept over
the railroad tracks on the west bank
and extended some distance inland.
The water failed to reach the tracks of
the Baltimore and Ohio railroad. on the
east bank of the river. though it rose
to within short distance of the rails
and the station.
COalyards and cellars of dwellings
situated near the river front were in
undated during the night and the wa.
ter. backing up through the sewers
