FORT SMITH WILL
 STAY IN LEAGUE
President Hurst of the State League Visited the Border City Wednesday Morning and Found the Business Men Enthusiastic for the Game.

Little Rock, April 2S.-Despite the rumors and published reports to the contrary, Fort Smith will play or ganized baseball this season and will continue a member of the Arkansas State League. This was the substance of a long-distance Telephone message at 1 o'clock today from President w.. w. Hurst to J. l.. Cuneo, secretary C. the state league.
 President Hurst went to Fort Smith last night to see what could be done in the matter, believing that if the right kind of an organization could be perfected Fort Smith would be one of the best drawing towns in the league.
 A mass meeting of the business men was called for 10 o'clock this morning, at which MT. Hurst outlined plans upon which he thought base ball should be carried on. He stated that he found the business men as unit enthusiastically in favor of main- taining a team there this season and that they were willing and even anx- ious to put up the necessary finances to support the team, which they did, and perfected an organization within two hours. To use the language of President Hurst, it was his first ex- perience in town where no one was knocking the game, but everyone was anxious to do more than the other fellow in boosting"
 This means that the state league will continue as an eight-club circuit, as TeXarkana today sent in it's sink ing fund and is now enthusiastically supporting it's team.

Walker Inspects
 the River Front

It was learned from Major Walker, United States engineer, with head quarters at Memphis, who was in Pine Bluff yesterday, that work on the river front at this point would be continued soon, probably about May 10. A contract will be let for revetment work and, the water stage permitting. Pine Bluff will be given water front that will withstand the worst of floods. During the recent caving about $5O,O0O was expended in efforts to save property along the riv- CT front. The $97,0O0, which was re- gently appropriated by the govern ment, will be used, which ought to be sufficient fund for the work re- quired.

THE FATAL MARATHON CRAZE

That the Marathon craze is on the increase wonld appear from the num- Der of boys and youths seen running in the streets and round the parks
 In the news recently there Was chronicled the death of a seventeen year-old athlete in Pittsbnrg as the result of Marathon race and the mental and physical collapse of a res
 taurant waiter in this city who under
 took long run hy way of train ing" for participation in some future contest. Marathon madness cor rectly describes the folly of unmatur- ed boys and physically incompetent young men trying to emulate the feats of mature, strong and carefully trained athletes. The news columns of late have chronicled the death 0. many of these OverambitiOuS and in discreet boys and men, but for every one whose death is chronicled there are unheard of scores whose constitu- tions are permanently ruined. Physi- clans attached to free clinics in this city can tell a story about that. The fact that the runner of the first Mar athon dropped dead when he reached the goal and delivered his message should serve to remind schoolboys of the dangers of protracted overexer- tion. No one Should undertake to train for these long runs until he has attained his full growth and develop ment and then only after careful eX- animation by a physician to make certain that his heart will stand the strain. It is simply insanity for, one wholly untrained to set out and run until he is exhausted. So far as the boys are concerned they should not be permitted in any circumstances to

San Francisco. Oct. l9.-An the en-
chantment Of the illuminations. the
wind.blown flags. the carnival crowds
and the rattle Of reality about the
streets Of San Francisco last night
were forecasts Of the demonstrative
welcome that awaited Don Caspar de
Portola when he sailed through the
Golden Gate today.
More than 500. 900 persons took part
in this welcome and the festival has
already established = new precedent
for public celebrations around the
Golden Gate.
Don Caspard Portola entered the har-
Dor at $50 o'clock this morning on
the revenue cutter Golden Gate-the
same that brought President Taft to
San Francisco but little more than a
week ago. In splendor. the arrival of
the intrepid explorer far exceeded the
entry Of the chief executive. As the
Golden Gate entered the harbor there
was \ booming of cannon from the
International fleet in man-of-wars'
row. Each of the ships of the Ameri-
can and foreign fleets fired q salute Of
II guns as the cutter passed Don Cas-
par before them in review.
At 10: 80 Don Casrar was landed on
San Francisco soil and with the drag
oons under Col. Henry Ritter as guard
OF honor. the parade through the
streets Of the city was begun There
were 10000 marchers in line and it
took more than three hours to pass a
given point.
At noon Don Caspar arrived At Tn
ion Square, where he was met by May
or Taylor and presented with the keys
to the city. Following this the presi
dents toast to San Francisco was pro
posed and drunk.
The rain of yesterday did little o,
no damage. Today the skies are still
overcast. but the carnival spirit has
not been lessened. The city has Sc,
aside five days for frolic and the pro
gram will be carried out regardless OF
the weather.
The Portola festival is to San Fran
cisco today what the Hudson-Fultor
celebration was to New York. The
celebration is International in charac
ter. II commentaries the discovery
of the bay OF San Francisco by Dor
Caspar de Po:tola, in the service c'

CENSUS QUESTIONS
ASKED FARMERS
Government EnumeratorS Will
Be Very Inquisitive in
Their Work.
FARMERS BEGIN FIGURING
THE WORK so INTRICATE THAT
COUNTY NEWSPAPERS WILL BE
ASKED TO ASSisT-sAMPLE OF
QUESTIONS TO Be ASKED.

Washington, October 19-The cen
sus bureau wants the farmers of the
country to do some bookkeeping be-
tween now and the 18th of next April.
The experience in previous censuses
has demonstrated that statistical in
formation relating to agriculture is not
as reliable as it should be because
farmers as a rule do not do any book
keeping. The enumerators who will
start ON their rounds the 18th of
April will be under instructions to
gather from the farmers accurate &C.
conuts of their operations during the
year ending December 81. Every farm
er will also be required to make an
inventory on the date of April Is Of
all his farm possessions. The new
director of the census believes that
If he can persuade the farmers of the
country to begin at once making notes
of their business for this year. he will
be able to get together farm statistics
that will be Of real value.

The schedule which farmers will be
asked to study will soon be distributed
through the farm organizations and
other agencies. The country news
papers have been asked to help in
apprising the farmers of as to what
will be expected of them. The SEIZED
ule is to be divided into five parts as
follows:
1. Personal Information regarding
the farmer.
2. General information regarding
farm acreage. values and expenses.
3. A statement of the acreage,
yield and value of all farm crops har-
vested in 1909 and of all the animal
products-that is dairy products, eggs,
live stock sold. etc.

Says He Bested Tigers by Ju-
dicious Use of Slow
Drop Ball.
He GIVES GIBSON CREDIT

Pittsburg, Oct. 19.-Charles (Babe)
Adams in statement issued yester-
day explains how he defeated Detroit
three times in the worlds series.
my success in pitching can be at
tributed to the slow dlop ball. l dis
covered in the first game that Detroit
could not hit this kind of ball to any
extent. When they would connect it
would be short hit to the infield and
Pittsburg has an infield which can
take care of such hits.
THE slow drop l alternated, first
out, then in. 1t went to the outside of
the plate beyond the reach of the bat
ter, but. II the batsman was within
hitting distance the ball was low and
its slowness caused a false estimate
Of the strength required from the bat
ter. In such a quick feat as batting
q false estimate is a dangerous
thing for the batting side. The ball
which went inside the plate and
dropped at the same time was the
most effective l used. Detroit could
do nothing with that at all.
But did not overwork the drop
ball. To do SO would have been to
lack control. Gibson sized up the bat
tiers and we knew when it was safe to
put them straight over the plate. De-
troit has a good batting aggregation,
and It was necessary to take every
precaution with them. The Tigers
rallies in several games demonstrated
this. To lose control during one of
these rallies would have meant the
loss of the game. The most trying
times while l was pitching was when
Detroit showed one of those famous
spurts of strength at bat. l worked
harder than ever and was fortunate
enough to hold control. The balls
that went straight over the plate were
generally hit by Detroit. Occasionally
ono was walloped to good effect, but
in the main we knew when there was
to be a hit and the infield and outfleld
acted accordingly"
