TWENTY OR MORE CLAIMS LOCATED

J. M. Stradley of Puerto, informs
the News hal there is consid-
cradle excitement over the dis
covery OF silver in Puerto Canyon.
Many prospectors are reported in
that vicinity and twenty or more

office has sem out a large number
of mining location blanks during

resources will make little things
hum in the next few weeks.

Cincinnati. April 81 don't think the

I believe that Ty Cobb viii show up as
well as he did last season.
These views were expressed by Man
ager jim Mcguire, the old waT-horse
leader Of the Boston Americans. while
here this week.
The Cobb idea said jim. SIS based on
the fact that the club is offering a bonus
for batting over 300 and fielding above
500 this year That's bad. With no extra
money in sight last season, Cobb took
many ard many a seemingly impossible
chance, ana landed a number of them.
That made him one OF the most sensa-
tional felders in the business. With a
golden bait hung on the end, the desire
for q good fielding average is certain to
influence his work. OF course. he will do
il unwittingly, but nevertheless he viii
play difficult chances more safely than
he did last season.
And in the batting way it VIII be the
same. The glare OF the gold viii blind

FAvORS OCTOPEDE CREW.
A. II. A. to Encourage This style of
Rowing I'm Colleges.


| Philadelphia. April $40 Introduce oc-
topede rowing among the colleges of the
country is TO be one Of the serious efforts
of the American Rowing Association. In
fact the stewards hope 10 have at least
three such Fights in competition for their
annual regatta on the Schuylkin River
May O.
To date the University OF Pennsyl-
vania is the only college that has devel-
oped octopede rowing. Coach Ward in
tends to turn out another such eight this
year. In previous years the Quakers
have been obliged to obtain their oppo-
nents for this race from club crews,
but this year the stewards hope to have
one or more big universities enter octo-
pede crews.
The experience Of Pennsylvania proves
the great utility Of turning out octopede
crews. Every year Coach Ward forms
his surplus oaTsmen into an Octopede
and in addition TO entering them in the
American regatta, they are used to pace
the varsity eight in its time trials. For
this work they are far better than any
number of second crews Inasmuch as
the stewards OF the PoJghkeepsie regatta
are anxious To introduce centipede or
0ctOpede racing on the Hudson the
American stewards expect the colleges
which row at Poughkeepsie to take ad-
vantage Of the opportunity afforded by
the regatta here
The stewards are beginning to receive
entries or assurances of entries from
many club Oarsinen throughout the East
In fact. it is expected that the club
crews will have a better representation
than ever before Bennett and DAILY, the
Worcester champions, expect to compete,
while New York VIII send over its usual
large delegation. The same is true of
Baltimore and Washington.
