The spectators at Front and Union
streets on Saturday witnessed the fast
est and most interesting game of ball
that has been seen on that diamond for
some time. and of late there have been
some great games out there. The Phila-
delphia Giants tried hard to down the
colts and they were rewarded with
victory, although only by a narrow
margin During the first few innings
the local team played as though they
still had connection with that Potts
vile pipe, but as the game progressed
they awoke and made things lively for
gins cost one run.
The chief trouble of the locals was
the pitching of Bell, and only two hits
were made OFF him. Leonard pitched q
good game for Wilmington. The con-
test was replete with sensational
plays on both sides.
Today Harrisburg will play at Front
and Union streets.

Supervisor Reports

Supervisor Jasper and County Stu . veyor Ward have returned from the New River country, where they have been engaged ill locating some much needed wagon roads in the vicinity of Imperial, the center of promising section which is soon to be tapped by the Southern Pacific, as feeder for its main line west of Yuma.
 They bring t1attering reports of the progress being made in that section, and speak enthusiastically of the pro- ductiveneSs of the soil.
 An immense crop of hay has been gathered from this land, and plenty of water is available at the present time, although the annual overflow from the Colorado River is not due for a week or ten days yet.-San Diego cor respondence to the Los Angeles Times.

be grown anywhere under the Imper- ial irrigation system. A picture of the wild hemp near the line was printed in the PRESS some weeks ago. It grows rankly and to height of from fifteen to twenty feet, indicating that great quantities of it could be produced. Negotiations have been opened by the Mccormick people to secure several hundred acres of land and water few miles east of Imperial on wkich to grow the hemp, and it is expected that cordage mill will be in operation here within a year.
 The supply of hemp for the United States is almost entirely imported from the East Indies and other tropi- cal countries, and when it was found that partial supply could be obtained so near home as Lower California it was considered d distinct advantage, while it would be of great importance to the industries of the United States if the Imperial settlements should prove source of supply, and there seems to be every reason to believe that this will prove to be the case. There is all abundance of land here for growing all the sisal hemp needed in the country.

PROJECTED ENTERPRISE
MCCORMICK HARVESTER PEOPLE MAY PUT IN
 CORDACE MILLS

Imperial is in a fair way to secure a very important enterprise. This is the growing of sisal hemp on large scale and it's manufacture here into twine by the Mccormick harvester people.
 Bach one of the large manufacturers of harvesting machinery maintains extensive cordage mills, the difficulty in getting a steady supply of binding twine by the farmers having forced the facturers of self-binding machines to make supply certain for the users of the machine. In follow ing the search for supplies of the raw material the Mccormick people few years since established large factories on the Pacific Coast of Lower Califor- mia. They had discovered that hemp was indigenous to that country, and they began to utilize the wild product Now the same company has not been slow to discover that the hemp grows extensively oil the over flow lands on the Colorado delta, on the Mexican side of the line, but few miles from Imperial, and that there is every reason to believe that under cultivation large crops of it can

AUSTRALIA'S BIG DROUGHT.


 For seven successive years Australia has suffered from an insufficient rain fall, ,and this year the long drouth seems to have reached a climax. Since p are said to be dying by the million on the ranges, and even the abbits, which have constituted the most serious ag- ricultural pest aff1icting the country in recent years, are being destroyed by starvation. The mortality among the herds and focks through drought since 1899 is estimated to represent a loss of $75, 5,OOO,O 1000. The winter is now opening in the southern hemisphere, but meteorologists are una ble to discern any signs of favorable weather con- ditions.
 Such a long period of drought is nat ally demoralizing every business and industrial interest. The cities are be- ing crowded with refugees from the interior agricultural districts, and the Government has been forced to pro- vide them with relief. The protective tariff which the Federal Parliament imposed upon fodder in the interest of the agriculturists of the country is in- creasing the distress caused by the failure of crops, as it is said to be pre- venting importations from abroad.
 Australia contains vast area of land. Although an island, it's propor- tions are large enough to class it as continent. But the interior is little, if any, better than a desert. Only fringe around the seaboard is avail able for agriculture. It contains no great lakes or big rivers, and over the major part of its area the rainfall is too light to produce vegetation for man and beast.
 At one time Australia was feared as a competitor in California's markets, owing to the assumed similarity in its climate and soil to ours. But pro- lOnged droughts, like the one which it is now experiencing, preclude the pos sibility of its ever becoming a real menace to our interests. How to ob- tain water supply to counteract the evil effects of light rainfall is one of the big problems which Australia is endeavoring to solve. The oppor- tunities which nature has provided for the conservation of water do not seem to be as numerous or as favorable there as they are in this state, where we have high, snow-capped ranges contiguous to the great plains which require irrigation, and yet the coun- try's future agricultural development is dependent on the artificial storage of the winter drainage. Some method of overcoming the conditions under which Australia is now suffering may yet be discovered, but the outlook is not bright.-San Francisco Chronicle.

PAT GARRETT.
He Astonished Coney Island Shoot
ing Gallery Owners.
HIT BULLS EYE EVERY TIME.

Patrick Garrett. collector of customs
at Ell Paso, Texas. six feet four in his
stockings and afraid of no man who
ever drew a gun, will not be made well
come IL he makes another trip to the
shooting galleries at Coney Island. The
tall Texan is in New York, stopping at
the Marlborough hotel and will appear
before the board of appraisers at a
meeting to be held tomorrow in con
nection with appraisements he made
on a lot of western cattle and which
were disputed by some Texas cattle
e To pass the time since his ar
rival last Saturday he has been visit
ing adjacent resorts.
He went to Coney Island yesterday
and will not be soon forgotten by the
proprietors and habitues Of at least
two shooting galleries there. Accom-
panied by several friends he first stop
ped at the one nearest to the boa land
ing.
Picking up one of the little rifles and
examining it with a critical eye, he re-
marked.
81 reckon I'll try three shots just to
keep my hand in"
He took what seemed to be a care
less aim at one of the g round targets
and fired, but there was no mark to
show where the bullet had struck.
With a superior sort of smile, the
proprietor reloaded the gun and hand
ed it to the e~x-sheriff for a second trial.
Again there was no little black speck
to make the impact of the bullet on the
target, and then it began to dawn on
the proprietor that a careful search in
l <ha a~aak ao.tor 80 tAn A,,l1,c a,,o -.o-1a
reveal one spot where both bullets
had struck.
About that time Garrett began to
warm up to his work, and the fun be-
gan for a crowd that quickly collected
when 1t was noised around that a real
western sheriff was giving a free exhi-
bition of the way they shoot in Texas.
Within half an hour the ex-sheriff had
collected a box and a half of cigars,
all there was on hand. after breaking
a record for bulls eyes that never has
been equalled on the island.
During the afternoon he gave the
proprietor of another gallery a similar
surprise, and when he finished there
he had two more boxes of cigars to dis
tribute among the crowd.
There's a whole lot of nonsense
talked about shooting in Texas" said
the ex-sheriff yesterday. Il never fired
a gun in my life except when there
was something for the gun to do. and,
except when they are on duty. my dep.
uties don't carry guns. Out there, we
have no doubts whether the fellows
who race through town blazing away
into the air would stand very long on
a real firing line. and that sort of bust.
ness is mostly done away with nova
days, anyhow.'-New York Herald.

1.-THE
A Magazine Issued by Cedets of New
Mexico Military Institute.


When Superintendent ]. w. Wilson,
of the New Mexico Military Institute,
was here the other day he left at The
Citizen Office a copy of The Bronco"
a first class magazine, published by
the cadets Of that institution. The
Bronco is one of the 'neatest publica-
tons of it's kind received at this office
for many months. 1t is well edited.
well printed and appropriately illus
trated.
The magazine is dedicated to Capt.
Joseph C. Lea. who originated the idea
of a military school in Roswell and
who has always been the best friend
of the school and the cadets.
The cadet publishers give the follow
ing reason for the existence of the
magzine:
During the four years of the exist
nce Of the institute the cadets have
published no paper or magazine in
which they could give an account
of their progress. This was not owing
to Incidence or the lack of interest on
the part of the corps. The work
Of organization of the many depart
ments has consumed the time of the
entire body of faculty and cadets. II
is believed that lifetime has now come,
however, when instead of leaving to
outsiders the relations of their achieve
ments, the cadets should themselves
make known to the world that they
have accomplished in the class room
on the drill ground, athletic field and
in the society hall.
With this end in view the plan of
publishing an annual was placed be-
fore the corps late in the present ses-
sion. The plan was accepted with e
thusiasm. An organization was effect
ed and work was begun at once.
1t is to be hoped that the reader will
be lenient in his criticism, bearing in
mind that the book was compiled in
less than two months from the time
of its inception, and the inexperience
of the young riders who have often
times been almost unseated from the
editorial saddle by the bucking of the
fractions Bronco.
The magazine is from the press of
the Roswell Register.
