M|N|NG DEALS 0F MAGNITUDE ARE
 SETTLED
Epes Randolph And His Associates Get Three
 Properties

TUCSON. Aril.. Oct. ( One of the most important mining deals on the tapis m this section of the country, and by far the most far reaching in it's possible effects on other proposi- tions that have been discussed pro and con over wide area of country, has been practically closed here. although the papers have not as yet been signed.
 Col. Epes Randolph and his asso- ciates have concluded all the arrange. ments for the acquisition of three groups of mines in the Catalina noun tains, including the I.eaihcrwood group of nine claims, the Stratton group of eleven claims. and the Gicsman group of five claims. It is understood tha; the ultimate payment to the present holders of properties will be at least s200,OO0, and possibly more. Details are not easily obtainablc, but from the information at hand it is belle 'cd that Judge William M. Lowell Robert NJ. I.catherwood and W. F. Francis. own cf- of the I.catherwood group. will eventually receive about sl0o,000, ih'I the Gicsman people are to receive al out sGj,oOo and stratton some s35,' 'M\
 lima Copper company. Boston incor- poraiion. would also sell their claims under what has been called the Lowell deal. but this Is sot true, and if thci, property goes ,o the Randolph inter osts at this time it will he under nc- gotiations by themseIvcs. The Rams dale estate claims, represented by Judg, F. K. Miller as administrators were also slated to go m on this deal hut are at present out of It.
 One of the most important points in this proposition, from the stssdpoia' of men who have given the matter consideration.

Harvard by such a narrow margin at

that the Navy eight beat Columbia at
two miles earlier In the season, and
yet the Navy finished behind the Blue

the distance was four miles.

NEW YORK, July 13.-some great
cinder- path struggles will be wit
messed in August and September. The
runners seem to monopolize the
chance of new records in preference
to the sprinters. Men like Charles
Parsons, N. j. Cartmell and Dan KEEL
ley can hardly hope to displace the
existing hgures in the 220-yard events.
At the quarter-mile the record posi-
bilities begin to show. Taylor, of
Pennsylvania, has proven himself the
fastest man since the days of Maxey
Long, and a few are of the opinion
that the dark one can step along close
to Longs record--47 seconds. Tay
lor's best race so far is 4S AS seconds.
At 500 yards Taylor again looms up
as record possibility, and in this
event his chances are far better than
in the 44o Were Taylor to get into
a race with EIillman and Sheppard on

Great Pittsburg Player Cracked
Out Ten Hits in Two
Games.
THE FEAT is UNPARALLELED

It is something out of the ordinary
for a ballplayer to make five hits dur
ing any game, and especially in that
many times at bat. Many nave played
all their lives and have not secured
five hits in a game. Others are salts
fed to say: well, / made five hits
off SO and so at one time and then
retired"
But to make i've hits twice in
season. or to be exact, twice inside of
a month, is a good record that few
will ever boast of. But Honus Wagner,
"the Flying Dutchman," of the Pirates,
holds that record. and it Ia question.
II 1t has ever been beaten-not 10
the writer's recollection during the
past twenty years--the records Will
not produce them.
Wagner make his first five hits on
May 18th. while Pittsburg was playing
at Boston. with Young, Dorner and
Boultes pitching. The big fellow crack
ed out a trio of singles, double and
home run. total nine bases. while his
second quintet of hits was made ir
Pittsburg against Strickiett, of Brook
lyn, when he hammered. out three
singles, a double and triple, q total
of eight bases.
When 1t Is taken into consideration
that but five players in the two major
leagues. four in the National and one
in the American. have made five hits
in a game, it can be seen that Wag
ner's record stands very high.
The other two players in the Ma
tionai who have accomplished this
feat are Seymour in game against
Boston, with Young, Pfeffer and
Boultes, the middle-ielder of the Giants
cracked out two triples, q home run
and two singles, making the seasons
record for twelve bases.
Lewis Turned Trick.
Phil Lewis. the Pittsburg boy who
covers short for Brooklyn, is the other
player who has made Ave hits in a
game. This he accomplished against
hIcGinnity and Wiltse in New York
on June Sd. Phil made pair or
singles, the same number OF doubles
and one triple, total of nine bases.
The only other player in the major
Leagues to accomplish this perform
ance is Stovall, of Cleveland who on
the second day of the season, when
| Cleveland met Detroit. the Maps first
sacker cracked out five singles against
| Willetts and Jones.
Besides making five hits twice this
season. Wagner has also four hits to
his credit, on May Goth. when the
| Plttshurg team was at st. Louis, against
Beebe, harger and Brown pitching.
Wagner made three singles and a
double, SO that he not only leads the
country In five hits in one game, but
he has the distinction of being the
/ only player who has made four hits
| three times. The nearest any one
comes to the big German Is Bates and
| Beaumont, Of Boston, who have each
made four hits twice: Lumley OF
| Brooklyn, who has twice made quar-
tet Of hits, and Rhody Wallace, tho
| Willvalle Scot" of st. Louis, who
has also hit safely four times this
season.
