!. BASE BALL GOSSIP /.
!. FOR THE FANS /,



Those interested in the baseball
team of Uniontown, which was to
be in the Pennsylvania, Ohio and
Maryland league, have decided to
Withdraw owing 10 the fact that a
number of the best men they had
signed could not report before July
], and the season is to begin May "a.
1t is also said there are other rea-
sons for the withdraway which have
not been given ont. Belief,tbat the
team would be neither successful or
profitable was the reason given for
its abandonment by the management
oil the league.
The above evidently will benefit
neither Clarksburg, or Fairmont or
the proposed joint team, either. The
team that was to represent both
cities has been turned over to But
Ter and that certainly was proof that
the Fairmont promoters, who we're
the originators of the scheme and
doing all the preliminary arranging,
had given up all hope and abandon
ed the idea of a team for their city
this year. Clarksburg men who have
Ifiugred closely on the expenses of a
team here declare that there is no
possible way to get team through
season in that league under the
Iexisting circumstances without the
loss of at least $1,000. That's too
much money to loose. With Fair
mont in the league and Cumber-
land out possibly there might be a
chance to break even. expecting, of
course, decent show on the
schedule.

The New River Situation

Since our last reportsthe amount of water running in New river at Calexico has decreased about one half, there now being less than one third as much water running there as there was dur
 ing the highest water period. The channel has changed and a sand bar formed along in front of the town, so there is no more cutting out there nor any danger of it. In Mexicali the channel still hugs the east bank and Is slowly cutting it away. The town is badly wrecked, the business portion being all gone and only about $ resi- dences remaining. The channel above Mexcali has cut back very nearly to Packard but the main overpour is still at the old channel of New river. about a mile beyond Mexicali. Here is a beautiful sight The soil is very hard clay and cuts out in all sorts of fantastic shapes. The water pouring over 1t does all sorts of pranks. but it is slowly wearing it away When thls is done the deepening of the channel back to Packard wIl! be only matter of short time, as the soil is soft and will cut easily The old channel joins this new one near the overpour and dis charges quite a volume of water itself
 The new channel that the flood waters cut from near Blue Lake up through Number Six has been extended till it has joined New river about seven or eight miles beyond Caextco and some distance beyond Packard. This chan nel is believed to be carrying more water now than the one running by Ca- l=xico and may be cutting its channel back toward the outlet from Alamo river The distance from the present head of this channe! and the Alamo
Imperial Valley press and the Imperial press., 1906-07-14

river through BeItran and Garza sloughs is not believed to be more than l2 to IS miles and much of the distance is said to be loose, sandy land. This situation is the one Messrs. FarnsWorth. Wade, Perry and Brandenburg have gone to investigate. Any danger which might threaten from that source can undoubtedly be averted, for the drain ing away of the water will make it an easy matter to go in and build levees at the breaks and keep the water in the Alamo channel.
