THE NATIONAL PASTIME
 LIVE TIPS ON BASEBALL

fielder of the New Britain team has decided to return to his native land, as he has an idea that he will go into consumption in this climate. Marsans has been laid up for the past few weeks with bad cold which developed severe cough Every possible means have been used to have him change his mind but it has been of no use. It is team will not know what to do now that Marsans is to leave as he was their, leader. Last season with New Britain in. III games he batted for .274.
 Again comes another name for the despised New Haven crew. The Spring field Republican suggests Spavin Rots. That name must have been thought of before they started on their winning streak It has been three wins out of the last four games for them.
 Bridgeport had better look out. The last team in the league has lost but one more game than we have.
 New York sporting writers are all referring to Tommy Downey as Dem on'' Downey after his exhibition of robbery in Tuesdays game. According to the Cincinnati writers Tommy is sure of the ShortStop position. It has been quite noticea ble that the team has picked up in it's playing since he started at short.
 The Hartford players are in the game every minute, which accounts for them leading the league. Connery is a great leader. and a ball player himself.
 Bridgeport will have to install ginger into themselves if they want to make a respectable showing. You can't ex- pect a crowd to warm up if the players lie in the coacher's box while silence prevails on the field. when their oppon- ents are at bats.
 Catcher Rocher's father was a spec tator at yesterdays game. We don't know what he said after that exhibi- tion of throwing in the opener, but his face was all smiles when the Senators were nipped with regularity at second.
 The Holyoke crew will make its first appearance here tomorrow at New field. Included in their batting order are Beaumont, Cosy" Dolan Slug ger" Burke. "Cy'' Perkins and a num- Der of other notables. A win would go nicely for the Orators after losing five straight home games.

The creston de Orc Mine.

Some confusion has resulted from the publication of the state ment that certain properties of the Mexican Mining x Exploration Co.,, had been sold. This has no reference to the mines in Sonora, Mexico, owned by the Mexico Min ing, Refining & Exploration Co.,, a Los Angeles corporation, of which William T. Calderwood of that city is president and general manager, The companies are unrelated, al- though their names are somewhat similar.
 MT. Calderwood states that the Creston de Cobre mine thirty miles west from Hermosillo is now ship ping ore regularly from the cross cuts above the water level. The last shipment of four tons gave net returns after paying all transpor- tation and reduction charges, taxes, etc., of $125 gold, or $3l a ton. As soon as the extra pumping power can be installed and set in opera tion, to control the water in all the mine shafts, work will be push, ed with additional shifts of miners and the output of the mine will be greatly increased.

moment he found it impossible to attend. But General Torres very kindly sent the band of the Second Infantry from Potam and while the feast progressed the band played.
 The festivities of the day ended with the inevitable dance, the music being furnished by the Second Infan- try band. Singularly enough, there were more ladies to dance than there were partners for them. But everybody who wanted to dance found a partner sooner or later. Until midnight the dancers held out. Then the gathering began to break up and away into the moon light filtered the wagons and carts that had brought the guests.
 It dad been a great day for the Yaqui valley and by unanimous consent it was agreed that the peo- pie of the valley would meet every Thanksgiving Day for feast and reunion. The surprise of the day was the great number of people in attendance. No one would have believed that so many people lived in the Yaqui valley.

Fine Stock For Sonora.

The announcement was made some time ago that Mexican Con- sul Elias had been commissioned by Governor Yzabal of Sonora to see what this valley could furnish in the way of blooded stock and poultry. Just what the governor wanted was not stated at the time. Yesterday the consul received more definite instructions. Governor Yzabal wants Leghorn chickens and Jersey or Holstein cattle. The latter must be registered and the chickens must be of guaranteed strain. The consul is further auth orized to make purchases at once. He is in something of a hurry about getting the cattle for there is train of fine stock coming through the country from California and he de- sires to collect the purchases in this valley in time to go on the same train.-Phoenix Republican.

q Good Work.

At the meeting of the board of supervisors Monday there were ap- propriated and donated to the No gales town board the sum of $200 to pay the cost of cutting back ten feet the point that came so close to the railway track at the crossing just below the railway yard, where the bridge connects Morley avenue with Grand avenue on the west side of the railway. At that place Grand avenue was very narrow and the roadway which was close to the track rounded the point so neither the avenue nor the railway track was visible to drivers of approaching teams, and skittish team caught by a train right at that place could cause much dam age. With cutting back the point the thoroughfare is made much safer.

Projected Irrigation Works in siusIos.

The department of the interior of the federal government of Mexico has authorized Governor Redo of the state of Sinaloa to enter upon project of extensive riparian and irrigation improvement along the San Lorenzo river in the Culiacan district of that state, for the con- struction of which competent civil engineers will be placed in charge, and the work will begin in April, 1910. The river named is torren- tial, and in the rainy season it flows a great volume of water that goes to the sea without use. The projected work will conserve the food waters and save them for use when needed for irrigation after the rainy season has passed. The work projected will supply water to reclaim and cultivate a large area of fine land in the valley of the San Lorenzo, and will add greatly to the wealth of the region.

Since the executive management of the property was taken in charge by President Cal derwood, not a day has seen the miners idle or the mine abandoned, Work has gone forward uninter- ruptedly, and with from one to three shifts of Mexicans constantly employed.

A DELTA HANKSGlvINC.
The American Colony in the Yaqui Delta Observe the Great Home An niverssry in Royal Style.

A special correspondent has sent TIE OASIS an account of the obser- vance of Thanksgiving Day which came last Sunday morning-too late to appear in last weeks issue of the paper, but is interesting reading at any time:
 EsPERANzA, SONORA, MEXICO,
 November 30, 1909. To TIE OASIS.
 Thanksgiving Day in the Yaqui valley has come and gone, but the memory of it will finger for many years. Some Thanksgiving Day in the distant future the oldest inhabitant" will rise from his chair, at the head of the board, and tell about that greatest of Thanksgiving Days-in 1909.
 It is less than a year since the first of the new American colonists moved into the Yaqui valley, pioneer in the conquest of this fertile wilderness. Since then a a constant stream has drilled in, small but insistent, coming and still coming. Yet, so vast is this great valley that men became neighbors and knew 1t not. Each man was so busy with his own affairs that he never knew who lived in the next block. The new settlers were scattered from Espe- ranza to 0ntagota and Ontagota to Yaqui, with a fringe to the west to- ward Delta. Some hundreds of settlers had become residents of the valley; yet they seemed but a handful. So, in order that neigh bors might become acquainted, it was suggested that a real, old fashioned Thanksgiving dinner be given. The proposition met with instant favor and 9th and Main (6th Street and Main Canal, was selected as the most convenient place. The affair was placed in the hands of the boys of the en- gineering corps, under Chief En- gineer L. H. Taylor. With just week in which to complete ar rangements, the boys went to work with a will. They labored night and day, securing such delicacies as were required and arranging a program. That it was a success complete and unalloyed, every man, woman and child in the val. ley will testify.
 Thanksgiving Day dawned bright warm and cloudless, such a day as is common in the Yaqui valley exceedingly rare elsewhere. Auto mobiles, wagons, carts, saddle horses, mules, burros and almost every other known means of con veyance were pressed into service to carry the people from Esperanza Cocorit, Bacum, Chiemeamposo Ontagota, Yaqui and other points to 9th and Main. It was real task to take care of all the people but i was accomplished. Such another jolly, laughing, light-hearted crowC it would be hard to find anywhere What though they were crowded four or five to seat2 Perhap your neighbor proved to be dark eyed beauty from Cocorit or al American belle from the Sacramento valley. And that was a compensa tion.

the last of the people arrived at the grounds. And such a crowd. Not less than 800 people, young and old. Where did they all come from" was asked a score of times.
 A pavilion had been specially erected to serve first as a banquet hall and later as ball room. The boys of the engineering corps had been busy.
 Then came the ball game, with Esperanza opposed to 9th and Main. Maybe there are not some ball players in the Yaqui valley. And while the boys fought it out on the diamond and their lady friends rooted for them, twenty fat turkeys roasted in the Dutch oven near by, side by side with ducks, venison, doves, tenderloin of beef and sucking pigs. You may talk about your Waldorf-Astoria feasts, but Yaqui valley is willing to wager that it had everything that the Waldorf-Astoria had and a few things it did not have. Oysters from Tobari Bay-and such oysters asparagus, cranberry sauce as Cape Cod never dreamed of; celery, pudding and the mince pie without which a Thanksging dinner would be stale, flat and unproft- able" Such feast.
 It took the Esperanza boys only nine brief innings to dispose of the nine from 9th and Main. Hough, for Esperanza, passed out a nice, slow puzzling curve and fast in- shoot that proved too much for the engineers. Then, too, Williams of the 9th and Main nine left a sick bed to pitch and he lacked his usual speed and contest. Another misfortune suffered by the 9th and Main boys was the accident to one of their best men, who had his foot mashed under wagon wheel that morning, putting him out of the game.
 Still, it was good snappy ball with few errors and much heavy batting. The score was 21 to 4.
 This makes the games a tie be- tween the two teams. The next game will be for blood. The line up of the teams was as follows:

of the banquet hall were thrown open and about two hundred of the hungriest people on earth hocked in. It was sight long to be re- membered. The hall had been very tastefully decorated with the colors of Mexico and the United States intertwined, bunting in pro- fusion, Japanese lanterns and greenery. A score of the boys of the engineering corps had volun- teered as walters and they had their hands full. The long ride and the fresh breeze from the sea had sharpened appetites until they were not easily satisfied. It was nearly 6 o'clock when the last banqueter heaved long sigh and reluctantly left the board.

Count Baldissare Castigllone wrote of manners in sixteenth century Italy: Discourse of love is used by every gentleman, not only when i'm pelled by ardor, but also merely to do honor to the lady with whom he speaks.
