Plenty of fox hunting.

Local amateur baseball managers
are bestiring themselves as the 1912
playing season draws near. With the
Inter-city League no more, Gas Com
pany comes out with the announce
ment that they will not play ball this
year. DUPONT has made no definite
announcement as to their intentions,
although il is certain that Reeves will
either play Independent ball or butt
into one of the city leagues. Prince
Mousley also is understood to be get
ting together a team to play at Riv-
erview. This being true, it might be
a good idea to get dupont Riverview,
New Castle and three of the old Semis,
or as many Of the former All-Wil-
ming;ons, into another six-club
County League. There are enough
other amateur teams in this town TO
make up another fast league of SIX
teams. If reorganized County
League makes the start the schedule
should be so arranged that there will
be as little conflict as possible with
the Tri-State. Too many bad apples
have been picked from that bag. The
big league would use enclosed
grounds The second league. of
course. would have to play on the
lots. Think it over, managers. and
come to this Office on next Wednesday
night prepared to speak your piece.

CHESTER HIGH
TRIMS LOCALS
For Second Time Wilmington
is Beaten by Old Rivals
in Cage Game
ELKTON COMING
FOR SATURDAY GAME

Chester High Schol landed a victory
over Wilmington High yesterday by
2O-l7 tally. This is the second time
this season that the Chesterites have
downed the locals. The little West
End stadium was packed with loyal
local rooters who gave vent to their
enthusiasm time and again. Chester
scored first on foul toss by Paxson
and then the visiting captain dropped
another pair OF fouls. Rimlinger
scored Highs first point on a free
toss and then Jones caked a field
goal. The first half was close and
exciting with both teams playing a
defensive game. The visitors secur-
ed nine points in this session and High
gathered but eight.
Chester started off with rush in
the second stanza and Bennett drop
ped in a goal from midheld. Point
after point followed this and with
but three minutes 20 play the score
stood 20-12 againstHigh. The locals
then took a squirt and made things
interesting during the final few min
utes Wickersham relieved Rimlin-
ger in the foul shooting department
and Gagged three out OF four chances.
Jones managed to roll a field goal in
with his man clinging to his back.
This raised Highs total to II but the
timekeeper's doleful whistle put the
blanket on the locals rally.
Jones played one Of his bcs, games
OF the season and Gagged Highs three
field goals He broke up the visitors
passing several times and was also
prominent by his floor work
Rimlinger's foul shooting was far
below par and he missed connections
eleven out Of nineteen chances. Coke
and Wickersham played a hard, con-
sistent game. but both failed TO tally.
Blickle covered his forward nicely
aud blanked him I'm both halves. Pax

ter's victory while he lasted but was

AMERICAN MINING
ENGINEERS ARE SEEKING
POSITIONS IN EUROPE

As result OF the great falling of
IN prospecting which has been motto.
ed during the past two years in This
country and the troubles in Mexico.
there are more American mining en-
gineers who have left for foreign
countries in the past three months
than any record in the past can
duplicate. A New York mining en-
gineer who has recently returned
from Nevada and who is now taking
steps TO go abroad in discussing
this question with a representative
of the New York Mining Age this
week said that it was getting more
and more difficult for mining engl.
neers who have no affiliations with
any of the syndicates to secure EN-.
plcyment, and that he would not b.
surprised if within the next wear
or two many American mining on.

they are frequently induced 10 give

examination of that kind in addition
to attending to such other regular
duties as he may be under contract
to perform.
Almost all of the well-known mi l.

today, whose names frqu IL appear
in the technical and semrteehnical

Furthermore, those who follow tho
promotion of mining pr 1pertics know
full well that since 1913 The old
style of mining promotion OF a Wild
and flamboyant character mas Deen
rapidly disappearing, as a result of
which, while the investing public at
large has probably been G eatly bene-
fitted by the disappearance OF these
tactics, still many mining engineers
who could thus obtain employment
in offering their services to such
organizations, have. in the common
parlance of the term, been done out
OF a job, and the less prospecting
that goes on, naturally, the less
technical work of this character
there is to perform.
There is no question bat what
mining promotion has undergone a
tremendous change in The past five
years, and 1t is quite possible that
never at any time ef prosperity in
the United States have there reen
so few properties promoted al a time
generally looked upon in the past
as offering good inducements to do
so.
The old fashioned mining promof.
err VINO was accustomed to organize
anywhere from two to five eompa-
Mes every year and use scare
headline advertisements in doing
so in the newspapers, has practic.
ally disappeared. The booming of
mining camps, as this process used
to prevail in the United tSates has
also become, apparently, lost art,
as those who were experts in doinL
this sort of thing have recently
found out that there was no de-
mand for their ability on such lines.

wares, he must show a record be.
