HE IS SHORT OF BAcKsToPs

The St. Paul baseball management
called off yesterdays game with the mill
ers ostensibly on account Of cold and wet
grounds. The Minneapolis players, how
ever, are inclined to believe that Manager
Kelley of st. Paul is not over anxious to.
play Wilmot's colts at this stage.
& It is thought that Kelley, who is admit
tedly short of backstops, was very will
ing to have an excuse for ostponing the
contest. Hurley is barely able to play,
yet just now he is the only dependence
of the st. Paul team in the catching line.
Arrangements have been made whereby
the games scheduled between Minneapolis
and Milwaukee in the latter city June s.,
4, 8 and 6, have been transferred to Min
neapolis. This will give the -four city

IN THE SQUARED CIRCLE

In one-sided contest, Tommy Ryan was
given the decision over Jimmy Handler OF
New York in Kansas City in the fourth round
Of what was scheduled as a ten-round bout
Ryan's furious onslaughts began in the
second round, when he landed with his right
and left on the jaw and body as he pleased,
and eliminated in the fourth round when
Handler went down for the count four times.
After Handler went down the fourth time
from right to the jaw, the referee gave
Ryan the decision to save the New Yorkee
further punishment.
Benny Yanger outpointed Austin Rice of
New london, Conn.,, in a sixround contest
at Chicago last night. Rice put up strong
fight and won the applause Of the crowd for
his excellent work, but Yanger was too young
and too strong for him.
The winner Of the fight is to meet Terry
McGovern, provided the managers of Yanger
and McGovern can come to an agreement on
the weight question.
Otto Seiloff of Chicago gained the decision
over Art Simms of Buffalo after eight fast
rounds at St Paul last might. The bout was
held under the auspices of the Eagles.

needs no guarantee. When land is purchased from the company it is only second hand from the government, and no abstract of title is necessary.
 What is the character of the soil?
 The soil is very fine sedimentary deposit. Some of it is. of sandy loam texture, and other portions are more of a clay loam char acter
 What is the price of water stock?
 The price is gradually advancing, and va rious conditions affect the price, which ranges at present writing-ast of February 1902 from Sl5 to S20 per share on easy terms of payment. This is the price both in California and south of the line in Lower California To this price of water stock must be added the price of the land, which is $1.25 per acre.
 Is there range fit for cattle in summer?
 Not on the American side of the line. but there is good range in Lower California both summer and winter.
 Is there sage brush on the land?
 There is very little brush of any kind on the land, in many localities absolutely none
 Are there any mountains?
 The Coast Range of mountains Is located to the west of the Imperial settlements and the eastern extension of the San Bernardino Mountains extends along the north side of the settlements to the Colorado River. To the south level plain extends to the Gulf of Cal ifornia, and to the east there is a range of sand dunes extending down across the inter- national boundary line separating the Inn perial settlements from the Colorado River Valley. This range of sand dunes prevents the taking of water from the Colorado River to the Imperial settlements except by de- tour through Lower california.
 What is the smallest tract of government land that be taken?
 Forty acres-either by homestead or by des- ert entry.
 Which is best for person of small means to take land under the Homestead Act or un der the Desert Act?
 Each method has it's advantages and it's dis advantages. Under the Homestead Act one must live the land continuously for five years and if he wishes to transfer it to an other during that time he must simply aban- don the claim and let his successor com mence just though no work or time had been spent on the place. Under the Des- ert Act person sell out at any time to a second party who commence Tn his re- lations to the government where the first party left off, provided he sells his entire holding, but he cannot sell portion of his holding and keep the remaining portion.
 Is there enough aIkaIi salt in the soil to interfere with successful cultivation?
 As regards black alkali, there is practically none. This is conceded The presence of gypsum in the soil and in the water would overcome any black alkali that might be found.
 AS regards salt, there is less of it all through the settlements Some of the soil has very little and in other localities there is than is desirable. The Government sent out two experts from Washington to anime this question and while their work very hurried and to a certain extent super icial,-examining over 270O acres per day

large, and furnished cottages cannot be rented although good lot can be secured which to erect a furnished cottage
 Is there good duck and quail shooting and fishing?
 During some seasons of the year there are ducks by the wholesale. The quails are not so plenty, but the country is settled. their tribe will increase. We afraid to tell the fish stories. There several fine lakes in the settlement.-such Cameron Lake Blue Lake, Diamond Lake Pelican Lake, Laguna, and Mesquite Lake These lakes all we'll stocked with fish that come down from the Colorado River. The larger canals also well supplied with the same varieties of fish, mostly carp and other edible varieties.
 Can you make special inducements for form ing small colony?
 Write to the Imperial Land Company, and give the program and the matter will be favorably considered.
 What conveyances if any, from the station to the premises?
 stage will convey homeseekers from the railroad station to Imperial and return for $6.00 for the round trip. Teams furnished by the company to show lands, representa- tive of the company being stationed at Impe- rial for that purpose.
 What fruits have been proven?
 Directly none Under similar soil and eli matc conditions. however, nearly all the decid- fruits have been found to flourish.
 Is the land ready for the blow?
 Some of it, yes. Other tracts need some leveng and the removal of scattering brush.
 Must the land be fenced?
 No, only when enclosures are required for cattle.
 Are there any sand storms?
 No, not that expression is generally derstood in the East. Occasionally heavy wind from the northwest will raise cloud of dust which will fill the air as it does occa- sonally in all portions of the Pacific Coast. AS the acreage planted to crops increases, the dust will decrease. There are not as long and hard winds in this settlement as there are to be found in most sections of southern Cal ifornia.
 Is it necessary to Hume or pipe the water over the land?
 No, water is too plenty and too cheap to be saved in that way. Open dtches are used.
 How much land can a settler take?
 Under the Desert Land Act person can take 320 acres, or he can take 160 acres under that act and 160 acres under the Homestead Act provided he has not heretofore used his Desert Land Act right. He need not live the land under the Desert Act, but he must live on it under the Homestead Act commence ing to do within six months after making his filing The land taken under the Desert Act must be in compact form but desert entry need not necessarily adjoin homestead entry.
