MANY Will ATTEND
RINGING CIRCUS

A great many Winnemucca people
are going to Reno on September 4th
to the Ringing Bros. circus. 1t will
be the only opportunity this year and
the railroads are preparing to handle
thousands of visitors from the sur
rounding territory.
Ringling Brothers have made many
important improvements since they
last appeared in this part the coun-
try. At Madison Square Garden, New
York, where the season began, the per-
formanees were attended nightly by
the biggest crowds that ever saw a
circus in Manhattan, and the news
papers were not backward about say
ing that the Ringling Brothers were
presenting, in every respect, the best
entertainment of the kind ever given
there. The performance in Reno will
be identical with those given in the
Garden, not the slightest change hav-
ing been made in the long program.
The circus offered this year is one
of wonderful novelty. Instead of the
usual single thriller presented by
'other circuses, the Ringing Brothers
are heading their bill with no less than
seven of the greatest and most sensa-
tional acts that have ever been pre-
sented anywhere on earth.
The parade will be given in the
forenoon. It will far surpass the bril-
liant pageants which the Ringing
Brothers have given in past years,
having been entirely reguilt in the for
eign workshops of the show at Liver
pool, England

w. o. Temple and J. B. Truitt re-
turned yesterday from Awakening,
where they went Saturday on an in
spection trip. The former was very
favorably impressed with the showings
at the new camp stating that he had
seen paintings taken from the ledge at
intervals for three mills, and that in
considerable of the rock gold could be
seen with the naked eye. He fully
coneurs with the common report that
the new camp is making the finest sur
face showings known TO the mining
world.
Yesterday force of men was put to
work sinking a 100-foot shaft on the
Temple -Truitt lease.

In order to Accommodate its con-

National bank has found it necessary
to enlarge its quarters. Yesterday
workmen began the erection of an ad-
dition to the rear of the building, 20
feet in length, to be of the same
height and practically the width of the
main structure.
1t is expected that the new addition
will be completed about the 18th of

new INDUSTRY
TRACK" FOR ". P.

Between now and the first of the
month the Western Pacific will begin
the construction of what will be
known as an "industry track - The
new line will begin at a point east
of the stockyards, on the north side of
the main line, and run for 1900 feet
west through the Haviland & Hoskins
addition, ending at point on the OPP
posite side of the street from the ware
house of the Nevada Hide company
This improvement will be made for the
accommodation of several new indus
tries that are about to be located in
the addition mentioned.
AS exclusively announced in the Sill
yer State several weeks ago, the Stan
dard Oil company took an option on a
block of ground in the addition and at
present have under advisement the
erection of tanks and pumping plant,
for the purpose of making Winnemuc-
ca their distributing point for eastern
Nevada From present indications it
is considered probable that it has been
decided to erect the plant.

& Hoskins, west of the stock corrals,
for the Winnemucca Water & Light
company and at a recent meeting of
the directors of the corporation, held
in San Francisco, it was decided to
build new power plant on the prop
erty The machinery has been ordered
and upon its arrival work will be at
once commenced and it is expected the
plant will be in operation before win
ter sets in.
1t is estimated that the new i'm
provements will cost in the neighbor-
hood of 100000, and the equipment
will include the latest machinery
known to electrical engineering. Oil
will be employed exclusively for fuel.
None of the equipment at the old
power. house will be moved, and it will
be abandoned when the new plant is
ready TO start up.

Christy Mathewson and Roger Bren-
nahan basked in glory for many
seasons. This crack battery had much
to do with the Giants winning a couple
of National league gonfalons and a
worlds championship. Since Bresna-
han was shifted to st. Louis, the
Giants have been unable to get a
catcher of Rogers ability. Bresnahan
was there with the headwcrk and with
Mathewson's cunning it was an easy
thing for Matty to win a majority Of
his games.
and Johnny Killing worked together and
three championships were the result.
There are any number OF combina-
tions where there are stars at both
ends of the receiving department. Each
year furnishes new stars in both post
tions. Whenever a sensational pitcher
breaks into major league company and
he maintains a record pass, it will al
ways be found that a tried catcher is
his mate. The shining example this
year is Grover Cleveland Alexander,
the wonder acquired by the Phillies.
1t took the master hand and crafty
mind of Charley Doom to place Alex
ander on the pedestal he now enjoys.
Could Alexander have been half so sue
C6SSIul IL an uulTleu TeC6lNeT udO D6Cn
working with him? Doom is acquaint-
ed with the failings of every player In
the National league, while Alexander
probably does not yet know the kind NJ
a ball a certain PLAYER does not care
for. Now that Doom is out Of the
game 1t will be interesting to note
how Alexander fares with Pat Moran
catching him.
There must have been something
more than mutual friendship that
prompted O'Toole to ask Dreyfuss 20
bring Kelly to the Pirates. 1t would
be inadvisable to place this pair in a
game together. for they are not well
versed with the weaknesses of the
batters in the National circuit. II
O'Toole upholds his American Asso-
citation reputation with Kelly catching
him, then we will be firmly convinced
that a catcher has a great deal to do
with the success Of pitcher.

Classy Catchers Have Much
To Do With Pitchers Success
BY w. S. Farnsworth.

New York, Aug. 17.-"Mr. Dreyfuss,
if you can possibly arrange it, would
like to have my battery mate, James
Kelly, bought by the Pittsburg club"
This plaintive message was received
by the liberal president of the Pitts
burg Pirates soon after he had paid
the record sum of $22,500 to the ST
Paul american Association club for
the release of Martin O'Toole, the
flame haired pitcher for whom a half
dozen major league clubs entered into
a spirited bidding match after Roger
Bresnahan offered s16,5OO for O'Toole
and Kelly. The plea came from
OtToole himself. 1t was speedily
granted.
All of which once more recalls the
question of how much a catcher has
to do with the success of a pitcher.
The records show that in nearly every
instance a star twirler has a star
catcher as a battery mate. In some
cases, however, it is found that a crack
hurler has not been assisted by
catcher of high rank. But these in
stances are few and far between.
Again, there have been cases where
pitcher goes entirely to the bad when
he is working without his star receiv-
er. II such is the case ii merely
strengthens the theory that a catcher
has much to do with the making of a
pitcher of high standing.
Go down the line and ponder over
the great batteries of the game. We
find that good pitcher and an equally
good catcher invariably have been
matched and this brings success to
teams. The most notable pair in base
ball history are Cy Young and Lou
Criger. For years these two worked
together as no two ever did before.
While Young has outlived his former
battery partner as far as big league
usefulness is concerned, il is a fact
that ''old Cy" had his best years while
Criger was on the receiving end Just
as soon as Criger was sold by the Red
Sox to the Yankees, Young began to
lose some Of his Wanted effective
ness. Though still a winning pitcher,
without Criger catching him. Young's
work was not up to the standard
Another combination that has lasted
years and years and still Is as good as
ever, is that of Edward Walsh and
Billy Sullivan. While Walsh would be
a winning pitcher with even the veri
est novice catching him, the fact re-
mains that Sullivan has had a large
share in walsh's success.
Walter johnson and Charley (Gabby)
Street form another formidable team.
johnson is rated as the speediest
hurler in the big leagues and without
Street on the other end Johnson would
be at a loss with his terrific speed.
The Coffeyville speed merchant is fear
full Of letting loose with any other
catcher but Street working with him,
and as a result Street possesses as fine
a pair of mangled fms as any man in
baseball captivity.
1t is doubtful if Babe" Adams could
have attained the success he has been
graced with If George Gibson had not
been on the other end Of the delivery
in the worlds series against the De-
troit Tigers. Adams was practically an
inexperienced youngster and hardly
knew the weaknesses of the opposing
batters- Gibson makes a study of
every player that steps up to the bat
1t was merely a case Of Adams putting
