season in recent years did as many
major league veterans hear the can
from Father Time as in the season
OF 1911 Many OF these griZzled old
fellows who viii never appear again
before major league throng, were
stars OF the first magnitude five or
ten years ago
Among the players who will cease
son or who have been sent to the
minors. are Fred Clark Harry Davis,
frank Chance, Fred Tenney. Kid Elb-
orffeld. Wild" Conroy. Charley Hemp
hin Harry SteiufeIdt Topsy Hartsel
Dan Hoffman Charley Schmidt and
Jesse Tannehiu.
Fred Clark will of course, remain
in Pittsburg as manager. He has de-
clared that he viii never be an active
participant in game again. So posi-
tive is the Buccaneer chieftain that he
Is through with the game. that he has
wagered n suits OF clothes that he
will not as much as take a crack at
tie bail in g pinch next season.
Davis. Chance and Tenney. before the
DAYS OF Hal Chase, were regarded as
the three best first basemen in the
country. ln 1902, 1908 and 1898 Davis,
the old Athletic first sacker, was ac-
knoWledged the best first baseman In
the American league. and for years he
led the American league in home runs
and extra base hits. Davis viii go to
Cleveland as manager next season, but
is through as a player.
Chance May Play Occasionally.
"Husk Cnance may play few
games next year, but the consensus Of
opinion ls that he is through as a
player. This belief is strengthened BY

PROFESSIONAL BALL PLAYERS.

1t will no doubt be interesting TO
the Durango people to know that the
Durango ball players were pitted
against professional ball players from
Alamosa.
To get an idea Of what our boys
had to contend with it is perhaps well
for us to remember that the Durango
boys have played but few games this
year and consequently have had but
little practice.
Observe how the Alamosa boys are
lined up for next year. DePriest,
one Of the pitchers, will play In the
Western league with Des Moines.
Howard, the home run batter for the
Alamosa team, will play on the AL
bany, N. Y, team. A. Anheier, an
other home run batter on the team,
will also go to the Albany team.
HaDtings, one of the pitchers, will
play with Detroit for the Americans.
Eckburg, the clown and crack first
baseman, will be in the Southern
league playing with vicksburg, Miss,
while Mammoth Donovan will proceed
soon to Albuquerque, N. M, to man
age the team there during the state
fair of Oct. 2-5. He goes TO the
Pacific Coast league next year.

PIONEERS, DANCE

After the banquet exercises were
over the San Juan pioneers assem-
bled in couples for the dance. They
were called by years and the year
1873 found response Of five cou-
pies; 1874 three couples; 1875 three
couples; 1876 two couples; no one re-
sponded to the call Of 1878; three 10
1879; five to 1880 and = number 10
the last call, 1881.
1t was observed that many of the
women responded very reluctantly to
the call of those early years and that
there was large number Of them in
the 1881 class. No cause for this was
given.
1t was noticeable that for every
brave and ambitious man who found
his way into the San Juan country In
the early days there was at least one
loyal, courageous woman who follow
ed him closely. In fact the women
were in the majority at the eslsbra-
ton and have as many interesting
stories to tell as have the men.

RACING DURING FESTIVAL
OF MOUNTAIN AND PLAIN

SOCIALIST, cLsfkss.

The Socialist leaders claim that
Debs will poll a million votes this
year, which will be more than double
his vote in the year 1908 when it
reached the high water mark with
420,793. In 1904 the vote was 402,-
2S3.
They are inclined to think that the
party disturbance this year will push
their vote up to the million mark.
However, it is freely claimed by some
that the party will not be able to
make gains this year because Of the
fact that the Progressives have ia
ken several of their principles and
that the Socialists are very anxious
to see these principles put into eff
fectc. For this reason they will vote
for Roosevelt in the hope of electing
him president. Should this plan be
attempted by them Debs may fall
short of his vote four years ago.
On the other hand the leaders of
the party claim that Debs will draw
do ntdNhy lIpH DOtH tilc hcpuDiiCdli
and Democratic parties as will Roose-
welt.
New York is the banner state for
the party. Next in order is Illinois,
Pennsylvania, Ohio and Wisconsin. 1t
will be noticed that their vote comes
largely from those states having large
cities. On the western coast Cali
fornia furnishes a big vote which
comes largely from San Francisco and
Los Angeles.
The party has been growing rapidly
in Massachusetts and it is hoped by
them that they will have beneficial
increase this year.
The party leaders claim that the
biggest increase in the vote this year
will be from the west. They even go
to the extent of claiming that they
will elect the next governor of Ne
vada.
There is one thing peculiar about
the location of the Socialist vote and
that is the absence of any material
vote in the south. They claim that
it is the mismanagement and boss
rule of parties that justifes the ad-
vancement of their party, yet in the
south where it is all boss rule there
is but small Socialist vote with
Oklahoma taking the lead.

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 2s.-The
United States subcommittee, appoint
ed to investigate relations with Mex
leo, concluded its work in this city
today, and while its members are non

of the report they will submit to the

Senator Smith says it will embody
evidence showing that since the be-

large quantities of munitions of war

the evidence adduced points to show
the necessity for the United States
