IRON AND FLOUR.
First Produced in this Country Near
Richmond, Virginia.

First Produced in this Country Near
Richmond, Virginia.
The great digging after historic
facts in connection with the James
town Exposition has brought to light
a remarkable coincidence in regard to
the manufacture of iron and flour in
America
The iron and steel trade will be in
terested to know tnat the first iron
manufactured in America was in the
year 1919. 1t was made from bogore
of which a big deposit had been dis
covered by Capt. John Smith in the
meadows along Falling creek, trib-
utary of the James river. only short
distance from Richmond In 1919 the
London Company, pioneers of the Vir-
ginia Colony, sent to Jamestown a
party of one hundred and fifty skilled
workers in iron under a Mr.. King.
They erected works and opened the
mines expending 100000 in the work
A good quality of iron was produced
the settlement prospered and the vii
1age that grew up around the works
was named Warwick It bid fair to
become the most prosperous settle-
ment in the colony. For three years

The Roswell town team defeated
the New Mexico Military Institute
Cadet team on the Institute grounds
yesterday afternoon in an eleven in
ming baseball game, the final score
being to 2. 1t was a live contest,
and of great interest to the hundred
spectators who were in attendance.
Many pronounce it the best, cleanest
game they ever saw on a Roswell
diamond
1t was a pitchers battle from start
to finish. Kennedy was on the firing
line for the Roswell boys, and his
work was the feature of the game,
tute, being a close second. Kennedy
let the Institute boys down with
three hits and struck out 16 of them.
However, he let two go to first on
balls and three more by hitting
them. Hester pitched the steadier
game, although he allowed nine hits
and struck out but nine, for he pass
ed none in any manner.
The Institute made its two scores
in the first inning, both as results of
wild throws, or passed balls, which
ever they are to be called. After that
it was a snut-out for the Cadets. In
nearly every inning Kennedy famed
at least two batters.
The Roswell boys made one score
in each the first and fifth inning, on
safe hits and from that time until
the eleventh it was tie. In the elev
enth with two out, Douglas got to
first on a hit and Wilson brought him
in with three bagger. Wilson him
self was brought in with hit from
Ashenhurst, who afterward died on
base That made the score 4 to 2,
and in their last half the Institute was
unable to score.

Both teams deserve the highest of
praise for their good playing and hard
work. The Institute team had three
players from their second team, but
they did good work. the town team
had the better of it at the bat, being
older players as a rule.
Wilson caught an excellent game
after the first inning, when he let
in the only scores made by the In
stitute on passed balls.
DIR. Morris, of Lake Arthur, and Ed
Johnson deserve special mention for
their splendid work on third and first.
Jaffa Miller played an errorless game
for the Institute in centerfield, accept
ing four chances, two of them hard
ones. Pete Bemis was a wonder for
the home team, making an assist by
running from center field and taking
in a hot hit over second base and
throwing out man at first when it
looked like score was coming. Lob
man caught his usual good game and
Kennard. Cannon, Freeman and Mon

was just his percentage in batting, 30
Otto Williams made two hits in the past

Pitcher Smiths home run also sent him

ed by Mr.. Sibley as to he breeding of the
dam of The Moor will be pretty sure proof
among most men that Mr.. Sibley was not
mistaken in his contention that the mare
was by Bassinger, and out of a thorough.
bred dam. Mr.. Sibley's interest in the mat
ter was because he owned at the time up
ward of $4,000 worth of the sons and
daughters of Beautiful Bells. greatest of
light harness matrons. and Beautiful Bells
was by The Moor. Mr.. Battells other inn
portant discovery is that Seeley's American
Star was not a grandson of Duroc, out of
mare by Henry, but the son of a Morgan
horse, dam untraced. Surely Mr.. Battell
cannot be familiar with the Star family.
The Stars were a breedy looking family,
partaking in bone and conformation of the
thoroughbred. They were long gated, went
wide behind like the thoroughbred when
trotting. while the Morgans were trappy
gated. and generally speaking. line trot-
tiers. Again the Stars had the temper OF
the thoroughbred. and like them were game.
The latter could not be said of most of the
