Burglars Get Into New High School
Building.

The new High school building, on
Broad street received its initial visit
from burglars some time during the
early hours of Saturday morning. SO
far as can be learned nothing was TAX
en-. Tho law-breaking visitors met
with some difficulty IN gaining access
to the building. as the door to each
room happened to be locked. Conse-
quently when the windows of two diff
ferent rooms on the lower floor had
been forced open and 1t was found that
entrance into the corridors could not
be gained, the glass was smashed out
Of a rear door and a new entrance eff
fected. The glass in the door Of the
chemical laboratory was broken to
permit getting into that room, and an
attempt made to force open the door Of
the physical laboratory by forcing il
with a screw driver. The building
was occupied Friday until midnight by
students attending the Junior social.
and the break-. was made after that
hour.

BAS BALL.

Wadsworth Haynes. writing of the
great American game of baseball,
says;
Baseball is being played all around
the world and its vogue. far from be-
ing less, is growing, making new con-
verts among the heathens "a heather
ls man who has never played base
ball over a year,
Two years ago the writer was in
Buenos Ayres. Argentina. during the
Christmas holidays. There is a regu-
lar ball team, composed of American
residents of the Argentina capital
and they were visited for a series OF
ciscogameS by team from San Paulo,
Brazil. Mighty good games they were,
too.
George A. Moore. writing from
Luzon. some time ago, said: when
| went to Masbete the game was not
known to the FihpinoS. but after l had
explained its possibilities they took
TO It with great enthusiasm Before
long we had many students who were
able to play as well as the average
American youths Soon they began to
organize teams In the various towns In
the provinces, and now we have a
regular baseball season In Masbete.
"As for fans. the Filipinos have the
Americans backed off the boards"
The spectacular side of baseball
around the world Is pretty we'll known
by this time, but there ia another side
that would touch the heart of any ar
dent American. Take, for instance,
the little group OF mon who represent a
big oil company up In the wilderness
or upper Durham. There are Just
enough Of them to form two mines,
and when they have an afternoon of
or when their days work Is over, they
get together and batter up" in the
good old way, They are far from home:
practically exiles. but they are In the
midst OF a smashing game under a

at the audacious energy of the white
men. they probably feel themselves

water and earth, which. with but
crust OF thin earth as sustaining
bridge above 1t. is more uncertain
element To deal with than were IL part
OF the lake itself.
The building OF tho Western Pacific
around the south end OF the lake has
been viewed as mistake by some OF
the foremost engineers who have
studied the route. Years ago the
aouth-of-thc-lake route was condemn
ed by Southern Pacific engineers who
at that time pointed out the nature
of the old lake bottom In that region
and the uncertainty OF securing a tirm
foundation on which to build road
bed.
With the Western Pacific consider
ing the adyisability or rebuilding, IN
fact facing that problem. the time has
arrived for the Gould people TO cor
rect whatever mistakes have been
made and, by entering into an agree
mcnt With Hartman to cross the lake
over the Ogden-Lucin cut-on, over
come their difficulties without further
expensive and problemaucal outlay.
Hartman and Gould are now
friends. When the western Paclnc
was planned, they we're bitterly an
tagonistic. and Gould sought to bring
Hartman to a sense OF the power or
the Gould forces by constructing a
parallel line OF road through Utah and
Nevada to California. That quarrel
WAS ended when Hartman. during the
panic. won't TO the assistance of the
George Gould roads and made possible
the completion OF the Western Pa
ciflc and the holding intact OF the
Gould system of railroads. Geo. Gould
today has a chance to, In degree,
reciprocate by going to Hartman with
a proposal that the Western Pacific
around the south end or the lake be
abandoned. the two interests to join
in double-tracking the Ogden-Lucin
cut-off-one OF Harriman's greatest
railroad achievements-all traffic OF
the Rio Grande to go via the cutoff to
Wells. Nevada, from which point the
Western Pacific might be operated as
double track to Winnemucca. Ne
