NORTH CAROLINlANS
VS.. GEORGETOWN TODAY
Intense Interest Manifested in the
Contest for Supremacy.

What promises to be the hardest
fought and most spirited college baseball
game seen in Washington for a year or
two, will be played on the Georgetown
campus at Ais o'clock this afternoon,
with the Blue and Gray lads facing the
stalwart, rugged ball players represent
ing the University of North Carolina.
The Tar Heels" have not only defeated
some of the fastest Northern college
and university teams. but have also
druhbed the University of Virginia team,
which places them next to Georgetown
when fast Southern college teams are
mentioned.
George Green. who left Georgetown in
1900. is now attending the University
OF North Carolina, and will do the twirl-
ing for his messmates.

TOM LOTUS CRIPPLES
ELIGIBLE FOR HOSPITAL
DeMOntreville's Leg Causes
Him Severe Pain.
MAY GIVE MARTIN A CHANCE
New Outfelder Has Played Second, and
Once Demonstrated That He
Could Hit the Ball

Gene DeMOntrevilIe's efforts TO keep in
the game are pitiable. With a tendon
torn from the flesh under his knee, he
has been compelled to keep at his work,
although his every move occasions him
the most eXcruciating agony. Moran is
much in the same predicament. Yet the
conditions can't be bettered, and the
team goes along in it's crippled state,
fattening it's lost column and plunging
the loyal local fans into a slough of
despair. Martin, likely youngster, was
engaged as a substitute for outfeld. So
far he has had no opportunity to demon
strate his worth, save in one game, when
he batted in the ninth inning for Town
send. lining out a slashing single. Mar
tin says he has played second base, and
with a little practice would feel thor
oughly at home at that position. Why
not give the boy chance? He at least
could give no poorer exhibition than De-
Montreville in his present shape.

Eight two-baggers were made in the
game yesterday. of which Setback and
Williams made five.
Big CANCEL is fielding his position with
the best of them. and is swatting the
leather for keeps.
Jack O'Connor is catching as good a
game ever, and but few players at
tempt to purloin off him. His hitting
has been weak, however.
Robby has captivated the fans in
Gotham. He goes after everything. and
does not seem to mind having an error
marked up against him.
President Pulliam has decided that
when two umpires are working in a
game. the man behind the plate shall be
given the Jurisdiction over the base de-
cisions at third and home.

Instance of Quick Thought.

Many pieces of work that affect the
results of baseball games are not seen
by many persons on the stand and
bleachers. Many clever trick is got
away with under cover, and the specta-
tors remain ignorant OF just exactly what
brought the victory. An excellent case
in point has Lave Cross for its prin-
cipal figure.
The Athletics were playing Chicago
last year in one of the closing games
when the pennant race was hottest. The
score was a tie Cross was on first, and
Hartsel on third. One man was out. The
captain started to steal. The throw TO
catch him was fast and accurate, and he
was nailed fully five feet from the base.
But although he had not a chance, he
slid head first, and sent up a cloud of
dust that enveloped himself and the
shortstop.
Hartsel made a break for home. Just
as Davis, the Chicago shortstop, was
about to throw the ball he unaccount-
ably paused for an instant and looked
down. then, without recovering him
self. let go of the ball and made gor-
been ten feet tall he could not have
reached the sphere. Hartsel tailed the
run that won the game. Cross, who
had been forgotten in the excitement
that attended the play at the plate,
picked himself up from the dust and
came to the players bench grinning
all over his face.
why did you slide. Lave?" asked
Manager Mack. You never could have
made it
Did you see that wild throw?" re-
sponded the smiling captain.
Yes"
Il was responsible for it."
Why" asked Mack.
Il pinched his leg just as he raised
his arm to send It home"

can turf, will be the piece de resistance
of the opening days program today
at the famous Churchill Downs course

This event takes precedence over all the
other Derbies given on the Southern cir
cult, and in the West is only excelled in
interest by the American Derby at
Washington Park.
This years field is made up of nine
starters. Banter was not sent out in
the official entries, owing to some doubt
that he would be allowed to start, but
he will go to the post.
Slump for Mcdowell Pair.

to be the case, the chances of the Nc

does not mean that they have no chance
of winning, but that their opposition
will be of most formidable sort. Bad

Johnson Gets a Frost.

So far Clarke Griffith Invaders have
been given a decidedly chilly reception
in Gotham Yesterday only 800 per-
sons turned out to see them play the
Senators. On the other hand. Johnny
McGraw has taken the city by storm
This is probably due to his interchangeable
efforts to give the New York public a
good, hustling ball team, a thing for
which Gothamites have yearned many
years.
For a time ii looked as though the
iredoubtable little Irishman would gath
er up every star in the American League
for his team, but the agreement signed
at the peace pact of the two major
leagues knocked McGraw's plans all
Iawry His stars were all taken away
from him. leaving a team of but medic
ere playing ability TO represent New
York in the National League. Neverthe-
less Muggsys efforts were appreciated
and the public is with him.
A Gotham public. however. is a tickle
one, and Clarke Grifith-about as wise
as they come-may yet win it over to
his side.
When several other National teams
strike their gait it is three to one that
the Giants will strike the toboggan.
Griffth's team is looked upon as one

but at present is not at its best
When the Giants strike a snag the

fast, heady game. Then the fickleness
of the public may be demonstrated.

rider.

night they are ready with excuses for

is a chance that he will be beaten

Tom Stevens. is still maiden, and il
looks like shooting a little high with
him, but his owner we'll realizes the sort
of opposition that he will have and

The Derby will be only one of sew
eral promising races. The many i'm
provements to the track and the very
liberal policy of the management seem
to have struck a responsive strain in
the horsemen and they are showing their
appreciation insthe way of attractive en-
tries. This will be the story for the en-
tire meeting, for the stables at the track
are filled to overlooking with the best
horses seen here in years. and they are
here to be raced. All that is needed
is good weather to make the session the
best in the history of the historic old
course.

The United States Geological sur

greatest attention from the investors
Of the country, it evidently being the
policy to try to give all the informa
tion possible conforming these districts
so that the people may have something
to guide them Prof f. L. Ransome
and staff of workers have been en-
gagged in the Bisbee field, and bulletin
No. 2lS has just been issued as the
result of their investigations. We give
place TO the bulletin which is as fol

"The Warren mining district lies in
the central part OF the Mule mountains
generally north west southeast range,
some 30 miles in length, extending
from the old mining town OF Tomb
stone down TO the Mexican border.
In the vicinity Of Eisbee the range
attains an elevation OF 7, 400 feet and
has a width OF about IL miles but in
the neighborhood of Tombstone and
near the international boundary line
il is represented by clusters OF com
paratively low hills. On the south
west the Mule mountains are separated
by the broad valley of the San Pedro
from the Huachuca mountains, and
on the northeast by the similar wide
expanse Of Sulphur Spring valley from
the Swisshelm and Chinicahua ranges.
On the north few low hills just
southeast of Tombstone connect the
Mule mountains with the Dragon
range.
The principal bodies Of developed
copper ore lie south OF the town OF
Bisbee, within radius .of a mile.
They occur in carboniferous limestone
nj q closely associated with an intrusive
mass of granite porphyry. In the
absence Of the geological map and
sections the structural relations may
perhaps be most clearly presented by
