Washington when the boy orator of the Platte made his maiden speech as a congressman. It was an off day at the ball park, and I was tipped of that there was a treat in store for the gallery. T must say the clean shaven, black haired youngster held the crowd to the last minute. He worked the corners, and shot them over the center, and worried ais op- ponents with dreamy curves until the reporters were very busy taking notes, and every one present was willing to admit the boy was a real live wire.
 William H. Taft can be depended on to make good fight, as he comes from old Yale. Then, too, William is fond of the sport and comes from the good old town of Cincinnati. Base ball has nothing to lose either way In fact, the man who would show his dislike for the game would have a poor show to become popular among the rank and file of American citi- zens. And yet I find many individu- als throwing cold water on the sport, and, strange as it may seem, many of them got their start with the ball and bat.
 While here the Detroit club drew 5000 in two days. Nearly 21,o90 were on hand Monday. With these

In the West they have a man named William A. Sunday, a former ballplayeT, now a vigorous worker as an evangelist. The West has en- joyed Sunday ball playing for years, and don't think is any the worse for enjoying the healthy pastime. Here is what Rev. MT. Sunday says:
 TT am against Sabbath desecratior. under all circumstances. The first day of the week is holy and such blatant sport as baseball pollutes it's sanctity."
 Blatant sport is good. The phrase lacks the smoothness of a classical word producer, tough name for a game that gave Mir Sunday several years of a princely salary. Captain Anson discovered Sunday, who was a clever sprinter, but a ligat sticker, a good man to run for some player af. ter he reached first base. In four years with Chicago, Sunday played 194 games out of 469 games played by his club. He drifted to Pittsburg to fall of in his hitting, his batting av- craze, .233, and quit the game when the road became slow and rocky.
 The boy may have done some good work since with the big stick while after sinners. Let us all hope so, but his lack of appreciation for the bridge that landed him on the sunny banks of Eden is monumental, if I have been properly informed
 And this brings me to the condi- tions created by the college man in baseball Three-fourths of the young

figures it is plain that the club can live here without the advantage of Sunday baseball. While the club and the game all over New England is fiourishing as never before without Sunday ball, there are thousands who cannot get away from their work dHr- ing week days and would love to see baseball, giving those advocating Sun. day bali good ground to work on.
 Personally, 1 don't care for Sunday ball, as I get all I can stand six days in the week, but that is no good req son why I should deprive others from playing or witnessing others play the game on the first day Of the wesK. There was a time when it was worth a boys life to even toss ball around an open lot in New England. Now I find professional playing allowed in Rhode Island and Connecticut.
 Here in Boston the Catholic clergy are not against the playing of bali on Sunday afternoons, after the public has shown proper Itespect for the day. One of our regular attendants at the local grounds is Rabbi Charles Flsischer. Speaking of Sunday ball this broad minded scholar says: Sun worship is the oldest form of organism. True worship is a con stant outpouring of fnankfulness and 1oes not have to be confined to tenn pie gatherings on the first day of the week The great mass If base ball enthusiasts enjoy the game only at second hand, as they are too busy during the weekdays. Give them the sunshine and the pleasure of pleas ures by throwing aside colonial nar- r0wness, and not by making an tiquated laws against Sunday basa- ball"
 What beautiful thought. clean, wholesome. fresh as the viclers picked for the maiden's corsage, and yet as vigorous and telling as sledgehammer thrown through plate glass window,
 The rabbi was never a ball player. but could appreciate waat it means to a great people Broadguaged ano observing. and willing to speak out scr wholesome game. his only object was to throw sunshine into the dark corners of the byways of a strenuous life.

SUNFLOWER DISTRICT
 CLAIMS VALUABLE
Company Organized to Develop TelIurium and Gold De-
 poSitS Found There.

Wait Hill and O. D. 5>err:Ii returned yesterday from the Sunflower mining district, located about sixty miles north east of Mesa, in the vicinity of the Sad de Mountain country, says a special to a Phoenix paper, ana report that the claims they. have been working for the Tellurium Mining company are showing splendid indications of free gold as well as widening of the tel lurium vein.
 When the tellurium ore was first dis covered by the Merrill brothers. about year ago, there was considerable ex- citement at the time on account of the assays, which ran as high in some in stances as S5O0O to the ton. Claims were staked out in the vicinity and Mr. Porterie of Phoenix, who made the as say, laid off a townsite in the heart of the section, in all probability with the expectation of boom. While the ore in some instances ran to nearly incred- ulous values, other samples ran very low, which was probably accounted for by the fact that most of the men were strangers to the tellurium and could not handle falr samples The high grade ore was found in the foot of the Ora Grange location shaft at the depth of fifteen feet.
 Soon after the claims were discover led company was formed in Mesa, with pr. A. J. Chandler as president and A. Mortensen as secretary. A tunnel 120 feet in length was run on the tellur- ium claim, while one 100 feet in length was run on the Oversight. Two shafts were sunk, one On the Big Find to a depth of 27 feet, and one on the Tel lurium to a depth of 20 feet.
 One of the most important discover ies was one in the Big Find, where free gold was encountered in the bottom of the 20-foot shaft. Next to the dis .coyery Of the free gold in importance was the widening of the vein from ' and 1-2 inches to over feet and a half.

men w3o go into the game use fhe chance to better their condition. and then pass up their old associates, One exception that know of is Pro lessor Ted Lewis, who was a yalua- ble member of the Boston Americans the first year cut, and later became a professor of English at Williams. Ted is now teaching at the Harvard summer school, and weekly calls on the players to say nice things Of tho game and influence the boys to coutin- ue to elevate the sport by good ample. Men who follow the game professionally for years, to later make make a hit with the unthink- ing people, should have no monu ments erected to their virtues, while the wholesome men of the Ted Lewis stamp deserve the best of luck
 Our grand old man of the ball field, Denton T. Young, is around with a cane and limping quite badly. In a game against Cleveland last week "Cy" was on second, and, anxious to score on 6 base nit, started for third even before the pitcher started his preliminary motion. The play was quite close at third, and for the first time l cav Young slide to the base He hit the third on his side and so jared himself that he was forced to retire two innings later. It isn't often that Cy Young takes a foolish chance, but the crowd was giving the old war rior such liberal applause at every turn that he tried for practically the impossible On August 13 Mir. Young will be given testimonial at the To- cal American grounds, with the Red Sox playing a team picked from the American League as one of the attrac- tions.
 It's about as hard as ever to pick the winner in the big leagues. It will be a month before the real battle is on, as one or two clubs are still skir mishing, while bhe Tigers and Me aleer boys are just now under full pressure.
