NOW FOR A GAME OF BALL.
Hon. w. E. Martin, Manager, Will
See That the Game Is
Good One.

Socorro is to have a regularly
organized baseball team and as
Hon. w. T.. Martin has been
elected manager it can be put
down as an assured fact that the
team will be fast one and will
win its full share of victories.
The personelle of the team has
not yet been determined upon but
there is an abundance of good
material in the city. as was
demonstrated two and three years
ago when the Socorro Reds met
and held their own against some
of the best talent in the Terri
tory. OF course the managing
of ball team costs money, and
it is hardly fair to ask the play
ers themselves TO bear the eX-
pense. Why not have an en-
closure in which the games can
be played and into which an adj
mittance fee can be charged?-
or, at least, a commodious grand
stand? a good baseball team is
one of the best advertisements a
town can have and therefore
merits the generous support of
every business man and loyal
citizen.

MODERN HOTEL FOR SOCORRO
A Fine OppO rtunIty Here for Some
body to Make a Good Invest
ment.

Socorro needs Il good modern
hotel. The situation affords a
fine opportunity for either local
or foreign capital to be invested
to good advantage. The Chief
tain takes the liberty of sug-
gesting that local capitalists get
together and provide for the
erection of hotel that will be a
credit to the city. Such an in
vestment would be good one
directly and even a better one in
directly. Put in charge of an
experienced and successful man,
a modern hotel in Socorro would
bring more business to the city
at the present time than could
be brought by any other means.
Let us have the hotel.

REV. II. M. PERKINS SERMON
At the Presbyterian Church Last
Sunday Created Very Favora-
BILE Impression.

Reverend II. NJ. Perkins began
the duties of his Socorro pastor
ate with a sermon from the pull
pit of the Presbyterian church
last SUNDAY. There was a large
and appreciative congregation
present to greet the new pastor,
and it is putting it mildly to say
that he created very favorable
impression. Mr.. Perkins is a
scholarly gentleman and a pleas
ing and effective speaker. His
sermon last Sunday was, more
over, imbued with that simple
but fervent Christian spirit that
il was designed 10 teach.
The sermon was based on
Paul's words, And /, brethren,
when came to YOU, came not
with excellency OF speech or of
wisdom, declaring unto you the
testimony of God. For | deter

among you save Jesus Christ and

Solomon Baca had so far re-
covered from the effects of his
recent accident that lie was
taken to his home in San Anton
10 Monday. The accident was
peculiar and dangerous one.
While Mr.. Baca was handling
his pistol in a cereless manner,
the weapon was discharged, the
ball entering one of his legs just
below the knee, ranging down
ward for a short distance and
then turning almost at a right
angle and badly shattering the
bones. Doctor Duncan was call
ed and in just three weeks the
wound was sufficiently healed to
warrant the patients removal.

There was a series of burglaries COM

authorities to apprehend the culprits
that instructions were issued to the
roundsmen to exercise extraordinary
vigilance during their tours of inspec-

On one occasion just after midnight
an officer saw emerging noiselessly
from a house in Eutaw place a young
man, who hastily. darted down the
street. The officer made after him as
rapidly as possible. When he had

HEARST As A Menace.

We hear a great deal of Hearst
as ''yellow peril" and his prob
able elevation to office is certain
~ producing big scare in New
York state business circles.
More than that, his probable
nomination for the presidency in
two years is causing a similar
shudder to sweep over the whole
country. Not only the Gin
terests'' are frightened, but even
such men as$President Roosevelt
see in him a menace to the
country. y s.y
Why is this so? It is easy tn
understand why the moneyed
powers should fear. Hearst; he
has fought them through his
newspapers and has been a thorn.
in their flesh for years. He has
forced concessions from them
for the people. time and again.
But why should men who are
fighting similar battle, like
Roosevelt, fear him?
The answer is probably that
they distrust him. They think
he is not so anxious to bring
about reform as he is to trumpet
it about that Hearst brought
about the reform; that he is not
so anxious to right a wrong, as
to have it known that Hearst
the wrong; that the Turk.
ing motive back of everything he
does is popularity and power for
Hearst.
Such man is dangerous
simply because no reformer with
whom reform is not the motive
and personal advancement mere.
.ly incidental is to be trusted.
He is always playing to his con-
stituency, and he does not care
SO much to accomplish reform
as he does to winapplause. The
reform may be brought about,
and it may not be, but in either
event the galleries must be sap-.
.peased. s

Inns In HUNGARY.

Wayside inns in Hungary generally
rejoice In very quaint titles. This one
was called the Dropperin and had the
usual sign outside-viz, long pole
with wooden ring and a gigantic
wine bottle suspended from it. The
system Of keeping the scores is primi-
tive, but practical. The regular Gus
toners and the innkeeper each have a
bit of wood called rovas, with the
name of the person written on it, and
every liter of wine consumed is marked
by each making a notch on his re-
spective bit of wood When the score

children, as much as possible,

Just to show the difference be-
tween a man who has real
record and a man who has a
borrowed. not to say a stolen,
one, compare Roosevelt and John.
son. Not even his bitterest
enemies dare say openly that the
president has not "done things. y
The name Roosevelt stands for
accomplishment. The record
claimed by the governor of Min
nesota has been assailed so sue
cessfully that there is barely
enough left of it to make even a
campaign speech of.
