ADDED TO THE
SNAPPER SQUAD
KIRBY, PROPERTY OF NEW YORK
GIANTS, is coNDiTUNALLY RE-
LEASED TO THE PENSACOLA
CLUB BY MANAGER FINN OF
MOBILE AND JOINS TEAM IN
SELMA.

Pitcher Kirby, a big right handler,
the property of the New York Giants,
but farmed out at the beginning of
the season to Mobile for further sea-
soning, and sent on to Pensacola. by
Manager Finn of the Mobile squad,
was secured last night by the Pensa-
cola Baseball club, President Schad
closing the deal and was informed
that Kirby would join the team in
Selma today and would more than do
his share of work.
Kirby has a minor league record
of which any pitcher should be proud.
He is "a years of age, stands six feet
and weighs $50 pounds. He was with
the Traverse City club in the Afichi-
gan State league in 1911 and 1912, and
was the premier pitcher of that cir
cult. In 1911 he pitched twenty-six
games winning twenty and losing six.
In 1912 he won nineteen and lost two
up to the middle of July when he
was sold to the New York Giants for
$2,500 and reported to that team,
where he finished the season. taking
down his share of the worlds series
money.
Kirby went with the Giants on the
training trip and remained with them
until a month ago, when he was sent
south to Finn. but the latter already
had more pitchers than he could
handle and they are all going good,
so he released Kirby to Pensacola con-
ditional1y.
Hansen Is Sold.
Catcher Hansen, who reported to the
team a little out of condition, was
sold yesterday afternoon to Clarksdale
and left last night with the Swamp
Angels C1arksdale is shy on catchers,
as Braun, who caught yesterday, is
wanted in the outer garden. and mas
much as Pensacola had three receiv-
ers and desired to take on pitcher
the local club decided to let the visit
ors have Hansen. He is a young fell
low, fond of work and will make
Clarksdale a good second man.

MOBILE LIKES
'PENSY PLAzY''
PLAY WHICH WILL sE REPEATED
IN PENSACOLA is ATTRACTING
ATTENTION ELSEWHERE.

That it is an absolute fact that Mo
bile is interested in 'Pensy Play can
be cleaned from a letter Mr.. George
Hervey has received from his brother,
Mr.. Charles B. Hervey, who is very
prominently known to Pensacolians.
The letter in full is as follows:
Dear George: / have been ap-
preached by a couple OF our prominent
physicians today. with the request that
I write and ask you if the show
'Pensy Play in which you appeared
last week. can be adapted to Mobile
conditions with the full quota Of local
jokes to suit, such as would enable
them to put it on for one or two nights
here, for the benefit OF a prominent
charitable institution. The success
that the show scored in Pensacola,
(and / am very sorry that I could not
be there for it,, has attracted local
ccnSidera ton, and 1 believe IL arrange
ments can be effected it can be put on
here. I inquired If they would desire
any of the cast that appeared in PEN
sa cola, and was informed that possibly
they would, but would want to intro
duce two or three OF tb prominent
Mobile amateurs. Kindly let me hear
from You at once on this as I have
promised an immediate answer.
CHARLES B. HERvEY."
When asked as to whether he was
of the opinion that such an arrange
lnent would be effected. Mr.. George
Hervey said: Il am taking the mat
ter up now with the different mem bers
OF the cast. OF course the text OF the
little play would have to be changed
around in order to fit Mobile locale.
for as Pensacolians know, rPensy
Play concerns things a la Pensacola
However. have hopes of doing some
thing in the matter and will announce
Il later"
No greater compliment to ''Pensy
Play and the members of the cast
who played If. can be lima gined than
the compliment Mobilians offer for n
production.

Affection Causes Dogs Death.

Affection Causes Dogs Death.
Natural affection on the part OF q
dog was lnstanced in remarkable
manner at Beaumont in the province
of Soane- et-Loire, France, few days
ago. One of the inha bitants drove out
of the town into the forest to gather
tirewood, taking with him the dog.
which he left to guard his coat and
basket of food while he wandered
about gathering wood. In his absence
the dog gave birth to three puppies,
and the wood gatherer, when he start
ed home, forgot to place the puppies
in the cart with their mother During
the night the dog jumped over a fence
and ran the whole distance some ten
miles, to the spot where the puppies
had been left, and brought one back
In her mouth. Then she made two
more journeys i'm order to bring back
the other two. Altogether she COW
cred distance of about sixty miles
in the night The next morning her
master found her dead in the yard
by the side Of her puppies, which were
alive and well.

AN OPIUM BONFIRE IN CHINA
Paraphernalia confiscated From
Smokers by Authorities is Burned
Once Every Month.

quantity of opium pipes, lamps,
and paraphernalia for the preparing
of the drug, to the total value of more
than 10000 taels, was publicly burned
in the presence of Chinese officials
and squad of soldiers on the empty
space OF ground behind the British
concession in Hakow.
The goods represented the results
of months raiding in and about the
city. The opium, which was the ma
tive product, and the other articles
were piled in heap opposite the
Ningpo club and were thoroughly
soaked in kerosene and packed round
about with firewood
This was set fire to, kerosene being
poured on the bonfire when the flames
showed signs of dying down. Not
a clay vial was left. The burning is
carried out once month, this being
the second time, and u different place
is selected for each fire. The opium
and utensils were wholly confiscated
from smokers. The smokers We're
fined or imprisoned.

Substitute for Grass.

An interesting experiment in horti-
culture was made some time back at
the garden laid out at the site of the
King Edward VII memorial statute in
Delhi, India. In order to ensure a
green surface at the time of the stone
laying ceremony, "methi" (trigonella)
seed was sown when the grass was
planted. The "methi" sprang up in
about month and maintained green
surface throughout the cold weather,
which could be smoothly mown and
did not interfere with the growth of
the grass The ground was allowed to
get dry at the beginning of the hot
weather. and within week the
METH had died out. leaving good
lawns in It's place. The "methi," be-
longing to the order of '1eguminosae,'
acts as manure and leaves the soil
richer in available heterogeneous mat
ter.

Factories That Float.

Floating factories have become an
important part of the development
of the forest resources of India. In
certain parts of the country forests
are only accessible through the water
courses, and the great expense of
erecting land plants for the utilization
of the lumber resources makes such
course impracticable. Therefore
sawmills and other manufacturing
establishments are built on floating
platforms and moved up the streams
as they are needed
After the lumber is prepared in a
sawmill it can be packed in way
that makes transportation much more
economical than any system of log
ging. Plants for the preparation of
tannin extracts have also been estab-
lish in this manner The plants are
built OH fiat boats, 200 feet long, by
81 feet vide capable of carrying a
load Of 40 tons.

six-Mile Depth.

A surveying ship of the German
navy has recently discovered the
deepest known spot in the ocean. 1t
is near the Philippines, about 40 sea
miles off the north coast Of Mindanao
Great depths were found to be
numerous in this region, but the rec.
ord sounding showed the amazing re.
suit Of $3.50 meters, or 406 feet more
than six miles
The greatest ocean depth hitherto
known was found by the United
States cable steamer Nero in 1901
This spot was to the south of the
Island Of Guam, and the deep sea land
indicated 9,635 meters Just little
