New York. May 12.@Tha demand for stecks proved too small today to main tain prices at the level fixed by yes terday's rise and mild reaction oc- cured.

Mack has always arranged his pitch
 ing schedule so that he could open the
 Detroit series with Plank sending Ed
 die back in the closing game. When
 he got krause, Connie worked him in
 between. giving Detroit three, left handlers in four days. On four games series with the Sox, Doc White has
 been employed in the same manner On several occasions on eastern trips
 since Detroit became d pennant factor
 Jennings men have had left handlers started against them in nine or more of their fifteen games. They would pitch Plank twice and Krause once at Philadelphia, Gray here. Collins and Karger at Boston and whatever left handler New York might have to offer. They got so they rather liked the southpaws.
 Left-hand pitching alone will not stop the Tigers. They have won the pennant three times in four years, and they never were as well fortified for this kind of twirling as now. Mean time the league is hardly as well off in southpaws as it was two or three years ago, when White and Plank were at their best. Krause had not been solved and Bailey had some ambition. Since he won his first pennant Jen- nings has materially strengthened, as far as facing left handlers is concern ed. Moriarty replaced CougI1lin in
  riarty is much the stronger batter and base runner. Bush succeeded OLeary in the fall of 1908. The little fellow is a left-hand hitter, but turns around to face southpaws. He has. always done from 30 to 90 points better in the ma jors than the minors, and his irnprove-
 ment is entirely due to the fact that he likes left-hand pitching, and. be- ing with Detroit, Sees a lot of it. Dele hanty followed Schaefer and Downs at
 second base. All ara right hand hit ters and Del is the strongest of the lot. Gainer came after Rossman and
 Tom Jones. Rossinan was a left hand hitter and thrower, and was on three of Jennings four teams. Gamer is right handed. The outfeld is un
 changed. Jones having dole more work
 than Mcintyre in two of Detroit's s pennant years. Mcintyre, like Jones. hits left handed. Jennings has Star
 age behind the bat In 1907 and 1908 he had to depend entirely on Schmidt a left-hand hitter. Stanage hits right handed and loves a southpa W.
 So you can't give much to a theory that puts club out of a pennant race on stuff that was tried in four pre-
 ceding years. when that club is better
 prepared to meet the emergency than it was in any of those seasons. Left handlers will beat the Tigers some timesHthey will beat anybody. for that
 matter. Detroit tried for two seasons

 The game called for an uphill fight all the way for the Academy, but they were game to the end and clung to their margin of one run Wesleyan got off in the lead with one run in the first.

Joe $. Jackson in the Washington Post ridicules the assertion of some writers that the Tigers will tumble be- fore left-handed hurling this year. Joe recalls some history in carrying out his argument
 Another good old theory is being ex- poited by the western writers. to pave the way for the possible downfall of the Detroit team. Gregg of Cleveland pitched d good game against the Tigers the other day after someone else had lost it. This pitcher is a fthander- Since that time someone has made the astounding discovery that Cobb.

This theory is excel lent But, unfortunately, it brings to light nothing that managers have over looked. For four years now Connie

self with great credit and tact.
DR.. King was so overcome with
at this sudden demonstra-
tion of love and friendship and
esteem that for a few seconds he
could not utter one word in reply.
The scene was typical of the
spirit of Masonry and friendship
as recognition Of merit and
service are the dornerstones Of
the Temple. 1t was full of pa
thOs and kindliness and worthy
of the institutions that encourage
those relations Of man to man.
Numerous visitors from the ad-

ance at sthe beautiful and impress
sive installation ceremonies and
the members will long remember

Mr.. Delino Delcambre, Regis
trar of Voters for the Parish of
Iberia has been busy this week
compiling the registration of the
probable voters throughout the
Parish. The total registration be-
ing 1886 with a possibility of sew
eral dozens being cut off due to ir
regularities, etc. in making out
their papers. While the Regis
tration shows up remarkably well.
still up to this noon there were
not more than 100 Poll Tax re-
ceipts issued by the Sheriff's office
Just how many additional will
pay their Poll Tax which closes
this evening at five O'Clock is
problemetical. At all events from
the outlook there will not be over
21OO votes cast in the entire Par
ish on January 23d. The total
registration in the Sixth Ward
is a very fair showing but the
country districts should have
made a better showing, Fol

TREATY TO PREVENT DRY
NIAGARA.

The United States and Canada
have negotiated a treaty which
controls the diversion of water
from the Niagara River and pre-
serves the scenic grandeur of
Niagara Falls for all time. The
treaty goes into full effect auto
matically in March, upon the ex-
piration of the law which now
limits some Of its provisions.
The international agreement
was made in response to general
demand that the question of water
diversion be settled once and for
all in accordance with expert
opinion. The treaty makers had
exhaustive tests conducted by hy-
draulic engineers, and it was de-
termined that diversions should
not exceed $4,000 cubic feet
second on the Canadian side and
10000 cubic feet second on the
American side, out of total flow
Of 100000 cubic feet a second.
The use Of this quantity Of wa
ter for power purposes, the engi-
neers found, would not affect the
of the Falls sufficient
y for the eye to detect. Since
'nly about half the quantity per-
nitted by the treaty is now di-
verted- twice the present horse
,ower can be produced without
'ndangering the scenic beauty Of
he cataract.

PLOWS ACRE IN LESS THAN
FIVE MINUTES.

The worlds record for plowing g
was recently broken in a dem
onstration at Purdue University,
Indiana, in which a gang plow
having so plows and drawn by
three traction engines turned over
a stubble field at the rate of an
acre every 414 minutes, says the
January Popular Mechanics Mag
azine in an illustrated article.
This mammoth plow cuts a strip
nearly 60 #. wide. and turns over
Z acres for every mile it travels.
Each Of the so plows is independ-
ent of the others, rising and fall
ling as easily and naturally as
wooden chip on the surface of
rough wafer, so that the service
of the machine is not confined to
ground absolutely level.
