Of the decided opinion that Gov. Noel
made no mistake in appointing to this
position DR.. Gathings, who il making

Tho Belmont farm, the lands of which
are not 30 rich ~ those OF tho Sun
flower farm, are, however, scientifically

clean and nice, and the prisoners are

The Oakley farm, where the hospital
is located, has hitherto been somewhat
neglected as a farm, but is now being
rapidly developed under the new man
agement.
The Rankin county farm, where the
white conyicts are kept, heretofore has
farmed at a loss TO the State. How.
ever, Mr.. Boatwright is Of the opinion
that under DR.. tiathings' spl. ndid man
ags ment it will prove self supporting.
He u that there are, in round nun
beers, 24,C0U acres Of land in these four
d .fcrent faru,s. There are 1850 con
victs, and h,teen sergoants and a mum
Der OF drivers who handle these con-
victs. He says that the personal prep
erty is simply immens. that these
farms will make so, 900 bushels of corn
annually, about 5000 bales Of cotton,
with potatoes, peanuts, ribbon cane
molasses and hay in abundancs; that
wheat is now being introduced, and
raised on these farms; hat the value
OF the live stock alone runs up into the
hundreds of thousands of dollars. Mr..

In a few days, he says, they will have

SUNDAY BALL IS NOT
NEEDED TO MAAE LEAGUE GO

The Tri-State season of 1911 isl
nearing the close. With today there are
but twenty-eight more playing days
and then the agony will be over. The
season has been anything but satis-
factory and it looks as if the Tri-State
would pass into history as soon as its
business affairs have been adjusted.
Generally speaking this season has
been bad for minor leagues all over
the country, but better results were
possible in the Tri-State
Statistics from all over the country
show decreased attendance at the
games, and some of the leagues lower
in class gave up the ghost The Tri-
State remained intact because it would
have entailed an additional loss of s2,-
600 to any club to have quit the game.
Outside OF Trenton, Wilmington and
York, there is no assurance of Tri-
State game next season Even Read

next season with the present manage

likely TO be a new president to sue

salaries allowed, but not adhered to,
there has been good baseball, but
President Carpenters individual limit
hobby has almost killed the Tri-Stats
The notable weakness this season has
been In pitchers and catchers and the
fact that not more than $175 was al
lowed made Il impossible to get good
men for these important positions.
other departments have shown in
ferior work but II was the weakness
in batteries that hurt the Tri-State
game this season. Notwithstanding
the widespread opinion that the Tri-
State would not prosper under It's
salary limit, President Carpenter in
sisted on strict observance Of the
rules, but was finally Obliged to add
500. Then IL was too late, as good men
we're all employed.

DELMAR NOT
BLACKLTSTED
Manager Butler Says Team Is
on Best Of Terms With
Peninsula Clubs

Sport Editor The Evening Journal.
I read with but little interest the
article signed by c. c. Thompson, of
Seaford, in this evenings paper.
! am glad TO inform the people who
are not acquainted with the baseball
interest in the lower part of the State,
that Mr.. Thompson is in no way con-
nected with the Seaford ball team. We
have a game booked on Monday with
Seaford on our grounds; also a game
with Laurel on Thursday here. We
go to Salisbury on Wednesday, to
Laurel Friday and to fredericksburg on
Saturday, all of next week. These
are the teams that had 'black-listed"
Delmar.
fredericksburg team has played one
game with Delmar this season. that
being here. and the manager of that
team expressed himself by saying:
This is the first decent game we have
had this season" Then, Thompson
was talking with the manager Of the
Laurel team last night, which l sup
pose was Wednesday, however. Mr..
Figgs, of Laurel, has been in Pitts
burg over a week, and / understand
arrived home late this evening. I
was also talking with Mr.. Wiley,
manager of the Seaford team, at 1.30
this afternoon, and having heard the
rumor which Mr.. Thompson had
heard, asked Mr.. Wiley about it. He
was ignorant Of il.
do not like to get mixed up in this
affair, but when an article of this
kind is put in print without any
foundation, which l have already
proven, 1t is too much to stand for
The article did not affect the play
ers but just the patrons.
l trust none of our patrons will
stay away from the game on account
of this letter, as there will be nc
trouble and everything will move
along smoothly.
Now in reference to the boosting OF
our team. beg to announce thai
we have played fifteen games this
season and lost three and those three
to Seaford. / will not mention nol

ever robbed at Seaford.
/, being manager of the team, and

letter showed himself to be, and tI

thing In reason. Does he realize that
he is. not only injuring us (Which he
means to do) but his own team when

they go there as we'll as here? We
cannot afford to play ball for fun, but
if such letters as these are published
many times it will mean that Seaford,
Laurel and the other teams will not
draw a crowd as they will be afraid
of the riot which is spoken of.
l being manager of the team, and
corresponding for all papers except
ing Wilmington papers. have partly
caused this rumpus, but I beg to be
excused from the article put in the
Wilmington papers the first of the
week, although l possibly would have
written the same or one similar. This
article has no doubt brought the
whole trouble, but we have a right
to boost when we have won twelve
and lost three.
nor the players have no hard feel
ings against any of the players of
Seaford, Laurel, Salisbury and Fed
eralsburg, and l certainly trust that
we may play ball for the sport and
not have any more such ridiculous
rumors from any Of our towns as this
one as it Injuries every one.

ST. PETERS HAS COME BACK.

Sporting Editor The Evening Journal
In reading an issue Of your paper
this week, ] happened to see an
article in regard to the game OF base
ball recently played in which the st
Aloysius team of Wilmington and the
st. Peters team. of New Castle, were
participants, and in which they claim
ed to have played men instead OF boys,
which they had agreed to play.
wish to say this was the fourth game
we played with this team this year,
and it seems they were a long time
finding out we were men instead of
boys. The only thing we can say is
they acted like children instead OF
men. l am not familiar with tho
team, but if their team is as young
as represented the spectators would
not know it. We further would like
to say that If there are any men in
their locality who want to play us we
will accept the challenge and won't
say we played men instead of boys.
Hoping you will give us some come
back,
We remain
