CORN-There isn't much to say about

report shows a crop of 100000 against

air by this time and hit Ortega. Then Grijalva, not usually a hard hitter, came up and lifted the ball almost to the left field fence. scoring Casas and reaching third. Luna and Ais struck out and J. Quiros hit an easy out to Donovan. Five scores to the good for the Maroons.
 Vinson hit to Grijalva, who got rat tied and threw the ball away Dono- van secured a scratch hit and Vinson scored Harter hit to Scott but the Indian first baseman muffed the throw and Donovan scored. Driskoll hit safe and Harter chalked up. Millett tapped fielder's choice and Driskoll tried to score but was killed at the plate. Millett attempted to reach third on Williams grounder, but was too late Rudolph was an easy out. Three tal- lies for the Athletics. The Maroons secured two more in their half of the fifth with Williams still doing the box work. After two were recorded Hull was sent in to stem the tide Ortega hit a long fly to Millett and Scott, who had arrived on a two bagger, came home with the eighth run. Gri- jalva hit safe but the next two were corralled.
 The Athletics placed two on bases in the sixth but they could not reach home. Hull gave one base on balls but struck out two and Casas ground ed out to second and the run did not count. The Athletics registered three more in the seventh canto on two men hit, a single and the error of Casas who threw the ball away. Two mere Americans reached stations but Vim son went the windmill route and their run getting was over.
 The bunglefest proper opened in the last of the seventh. Hull was pitch ing very good ball. but his support was infamous. Three rotten misplays were made which should have been three outs in the beginning, d sacri flee and a long fly to center scored three. and two safe hits landed anOth CT in the run column. Eddie was ready to quit, as he could not have won in a week with such miserable backing. Graham. Morty's brother, who used to do rather good twirling. went into the affray in the eighth. A base on balls and dropped fly in center scored the lucky 18th for the MeXicans. The Athletics had two on bases in the ninth, but failed to make good.
 Curly shifted his lineup several times in the game. taking Williams out of the box. then putting him back in the game on third firing Donovan for his five bungleS, sending Ninson , to the bench after mistake and re- tiring Hull from the box to the right field. But still the hoodoo was on and
 they could not pull victory out of the fire. Ii was totally different game from last Sundays whirlwind finish. and was a fearful disappointment to the fans and bugs who paid their fifty cents. Curly undoubtedly used poor judgment in not trying Hull out in the beginning. But criticisms are useless for the painful truth is, the Athletics can not be depended upon for a consistent quality of ball. Their off days are too often.

The eight end men. four bones" and four ''tambos" wore burnt cork. giving a tinge of the old-time minstrels. The balance of the company were not blacked.
 The end men were comedians second to none. There was no stale or rusty jokes sprung. everything being fresh from the joke foundry. The come dians. George Van, Billy Graham. James H. Stuart, James Everett. Will L. Darlington, Sam Frazer, James Mo Greevy, George Brown are in a class by themselves.
 For two hours the house was kept in an uproar and every member of the company was repeatedly encored. The singing and dancing was unexcelled. In fact the company as a whole is com posed of educated. refined young men, who take great pride in their work and strive to please. and do please the audiences.
 The company is under the manage ment of Sanford B. Ricaby. who was associated with Billy" West during the latter's lifetime. and knows min strelsy like a Chinaman does rice. He has gathered about him the best tall ent on the American stage today and when you See West minstrels you see the mall. Other minstrels companies are in the circus concert class com pared to West.
 Everyone who missed the entertain ment last evening will always have something to regret.

ADJUSTMENTS

Of the West Minstrels which will appear at the Doris opera house We'd nesday night, October 9. the Trinidad Advertiser in it's issue of September 26 says:
 When you wished to convey the inn precision that something you witnessed was so good that it was away above the ordinary, you would be almost sure to say that Tt was better than a circus"
 If there is any aggregation on the it is the Wm. H. West big jubilee minstrels.
 This company appeared at the Cen tral Park theatre last evening to a large and very appreciative audience and sang. danced and joked their way into the hearts of the audience.
 Without any exaggeration the West jubilee minstrels are the best from ev- cry point of view which ever delighted q Trinidad audience. The company is so far ahead of the much touted Dock stader minstrels that there is no com parison. In fact if Dockstader could be induced to witness a performance of the West minstrels we fear that the awakening would find him in the dis card forever.
 Part 1 was something entirely new in minstrelsy and could only he inn proved upon a larger stage. The seen cry and stage setting was magnificent. and the costumes were costly and beautiful

R. H. E. Maroons 70 53O4 41x-13 9 ' Athletics 70 0 o 0 O-6 Is
 Starting out with the prospect of no game at all and winding up with a contest little better than none, the Maroons yesterday finally won the $50 purse and all the gate receipts. after the expenses were paid, the score be- ing 13 to s. The combat ran along very well for about three innings, with no scores and few errors, but the Ma rooms doused the glim in the fourth when they tanned Williams leather for a single, two bagger and a three bagger, giving them five scores.
 From that on the error record of both teams assumed the embonpoint appearance. like the fat man at a cir GUS. It was a miserable exhibition and one that aroused the fans to re- solve. never again for Willie. The game was well attended and the grandstand was very well satisfied with Pete Sullivan, who umpired, Del gado is i'll and in bed and was there fore not able to appear and help win his own game. Hull was feeling off color and not very anxious to go on the mound for the Athletics.
 \ squabblc came up over Ais. an Indian, playing third base for the Ma rooms, and Curly told the grandstand to go get their money as the game was off. But by the time he got them out to the gate he changed his mind and ordered them right back again. The Maroons won the toss for the outs and as an opener the Athletics were not allowed to see first, Grijalva off ciating in the box for the Mexicans. The Maroons got two on the cush- ions but Williams struck out two and Magoffin pinched one stealing second. lIagoffin singled in the second but overran second and was put out. Stambaugh tapped out a safety, was forced out by Vinson, and Donovan could not have hit it with a board. Quiros got there on Vinson's error was forced out at second by Scotts infieId stab. Scott tried to pilfer sec ond but Magoffin cut him off. Casas received a lease on life through Don evans juggling. but went out by the same play as his predecessor.
 In the third Harter got bingle but there was nobody with the goods to bring him home. The Maroons lard ed one on third and one on second; it looked like a few chimes but two were out and J. Quiros hit an easy one to Williams. In the first of the fourth the Athletics went out in rotation. Then something dropped with dull and sickening thud. Vaughn, the In- dian. hooked one for safe spot l.. Quiros pinged one to Harter but the first baseman threw to second to catch Vaughn. who was safe by a mile Scott, the slugger. landed with a resembling whack for two bases and two romped in home. Casas carromed one to Donovan, who complicated matters by trying to stop it and Scott trotted in with the third jingle. Will Hams was floating up higher in the

THE PORT OF TAMPlC0
 A SCENE OF ACTIVITY
Other Facts About That Region Re- gently Thrown Open to the World.

Tampico. Mexico. oct 2.-(Special Correspondence of The ReDublican)- At the custom house docks four large steamships are discharging freight and acres of coal and coke. for seven miles to the jctties. at the entrance to the harbor. Surely the great Mex ican Central railroad needs q third line like the new short line of which fifty miles is already graded. in a di rect line to Mexico City. No wonder other railroads are seeking an en- trance to this port. The new bridge of the Yocum interests to cross the Rio Grande at Brownsville means a direct railroad for Tampico and to connect with the new short line and coast roads for the city of Mexico. It is said the Sunset people are planning for some of this traffic. There are forty big steamships per month. Saturday I rode out south of the city for seven miles to Tampico Ate. once the capital of Mexico. There are ranches all the way on this old i00 year-old road. This is the state of i Vera Cruz, across the river. We go by boat. sail. oar or gasoline two and

ANOTHER UNDEVELoPED RE-
 SOURCE.

The . following from the Arizona Blade refers to an industry concern ing which much has been said but nothing done. It looks good and is worth the experiment. The Blade says:
 Gene Woodbury has taken u9 160 acres of land on Queen creek. just be- low the old Hughes station. He will fence tho tract and cover it with Aus t-alian gum trees. He expects Co cut mine timebrs from this ground at the end of five -ears and the grove will eventually make him rich The red gum trees make the best telephone poles. railroad ties and mine timbers yet known and the trees make a very rapid growth in this climate. Rail- road companies all over the United States are buying large tracts of land and planting them to gum trees to protect themselves against the tie and telegraph pole shortage that is now a serious problem with them. The right kind of land planted to red gum trees in this climate will grow to be worth $1.1tO per acre inside of six years for the reason that it will. at the end of that period. in ties and telegraph poles alone yield that amount per acre. once the groves are established, they will by proper care and attention. continue to yield large annual profits. All experts who have studied the soil and climate oe the lower valle-s of the Gila river agree that the red gum will grow more rapidly here than it does i- California"

PEACH CULTURE.
High Land the Best Location for an
Orchard.

The peach, although native of a
warm climate. has through years of
cultivation. been hardened until 1t may
now be grown far north. 1t Is a tree
which comes into bearing at the third
year from the bud. Propagation is eff.
fected by seed. by budding or by graft
ing; budding being the most success
full and widely practiced method.
The best site for a peach orchard is
high land. sloping toward the north,
and the best soil sandy loan with a
gravelly subsoil. Peach lands must be
dry; under no conditions will the trees
grow in wet. soggy land.
Prepare for planting much the same
way as for the apple. planting the trees
In spring one rod apart each way II
special care is taken, two-year-old
trees can be used. but the best are one
year. medium size. four feet high.
The peach requires very severe
pruning. says Farmers Review. The
fist year cut OF all branches, leaving
Only one bud at the base of each
branch, and head the trees back to
about two and one-half feet The sec,
osd and third years prune to a round
or oval shape and every year after cut
out one-fourth to one-fifth of the wood.
Thin the fruit the same as the apple
and begin picking as soon as the
peaches part readily from the stem.
1t may be necessary to make three to
fiTe pickings during the season.
