Hey. Mister, wot's the score?
On the homeward jaunt from the
training camps many of the teams
disposed of surplus talent in tank
towns where it was in demand.
And even now most all of the
managers are preparing to swing the
axe on some of the young demon
sluggers we've been reading about
for the past few weeks. This in alb
solutely necessary to get within the
player limit.
All of the usual advance predic-
tons on winning the pennant have
been pulled again thisyear with one
notable addition, namely: Cornelius
McGillicuddy says the Athletics
will romp home with the gonfalon.
This is an unusual stunt for Connie
as he rarely has anything to say un-
til about June 1st each year. How
ever, when he does say something
his remarks receive plenty of atten-
tiOD.
Up to date Messrs Stovall and
Higgins have both refrained from
claiming the pennant for the Mound
City.
The managers of the various
teams in the Americans and Nation
al Leagues are as follows:

1t will be seen that the playing
managers are in the majority in both
leagues. However, in the American
League. Messrs Chance, Callahan,
and Birmingham may finally elect
to manage their teams from the bench.
Ty Cobb commenced his advertis-
ing campaign early this year by re-
fusing to sign until the last moment
and organizing a ball club of his

probable that next year the cheap
seats will be moved just outside the
park walls.
Weather permitting, the baseball
season in the Twin Cities will be or

Especial attention is drawn to a
statement by the Chamber of Com
merce Of Wilmington. which is as
follows:
We want to draw special attention
to the fact that We are informed by
one Of the large manufacturing es-
Adjustments Of this city that steam
ers arriving with a cargo OF lumber
from the Pacific Coast for their works
must be partially unioaded in the
Delaware river because of insufficient
depth Of water in the harbor They
recently received boat drawing 20
to .27 feet loaded, and that upon the
completion of the Panama Canal It
will be practically impossible for
these plants to bring cargoes OF lum-
Der from the Pacific Coast Up the
Christiana, as the vessels engaged in
this trade will have too great draft
to be brought up the Christiana.
The Harlan and Hol,ingsworth
Corporation and the American Car
and Foundry Company state that they
are very much hampered by the fail
ure to keep the channel constantly al
the project depth of 21 feet at mean
low water and that they are frequent
ly compelled to decline work on ac-
count of the insufficiency of depth in
the river With the opening of the
Panama Canal they expect supplies by
water on vessels whose draft will be
at least 20 feet

For the Appoquinimink river in
Delaware, the engineers believe that
.S5. coo will be sufficient for the work
in the fiscal year 1915. The channel
has been dredged at various points
where it was less than 60 feet wide
and feet deep. The channel now ex-
tends from Odessa to the mouth OF
the river.
No work was done on the Murder
kill river. although work under the
contract should have started on
April IA, 1913. The engineers esti-
mate $4,000 will be sufficient for i'm.
provement work for the fiscal yeal
1915.
On the AIispillon river, the report
states that $50 feet Of ietty at Sl2 d

of the fiscal year. and that this. witt

dent to this contract during tho year
amounted to S10S.74497, of which
S94,S0S.2l was paid to the contractor.
The work has resulted IN securing
channel OF the project dimensions for
a length Of about IL miles. All ma
terial removed under this contract
was placed ashore above high water.
Work was continued throughout
the year, except during the interval
between December 2S, 1912, and
March IL, 1913, when suspended on
account OF adverse weather condi-
tions, under contract OF February %,
1912. with the Breakwater Company

struction of four all-stono dikes. To-
Gated, respect ely. al Chester Island.

contract contemplates the deposit Of
about 435,500 tons of riprap stone in
the bases OF the dikes. on slopes Of
on J. and the placing OF about Co.,
600 tons OF rubblestone on top of the
riprap. The unit price OF riprap stone
varies from S116 to 81 45 per ton, and
the unit price Of the rubblestone va
ries from S1,S6 10 S1.65 per ton. ac-
cording to locality. The quantity of
riprap stone desposited during the
year was 274,SSS tons. and the guam
tity OF ruhblestone placed was $40
tons. The total expenditures incident
to the contract during the year were
1854 594.76. of which S247. 1872 was
paid to the contractor. Owing to the
soft bottom existing at the site of the
Reedy Island dixie, and the impracti-
cability Of maintaining Cross sections
to the lines prescribed, the quantity
of riprap stone required to complete
the dikes will considerably exceed the
estimates. At the close Of the year
the contract was about 43 per cent
completed

mel required to secure a depth OF IS
feet between Philadelphia and the sea

tract at the close OF the fiscal year

report. -Four OF the principal dikes
forming part of the project are under

main item. The removal of this roch

Success

Teacher. I want to deposit some

1t was a little child who spoke.
scarcely more than 6 years old. She

Richmond district, and held out a
pudgy hand filled with pennies.
over the teachers desk was a plac-
ard which read: To-day is bank day"
And so 1t ran through every grade,
from the baby class to the highest.
It is a departure in teaching that
was introduced by Colonel Power of
the board Of misunderstanding chill
dren to save.
Every day a man from one of the
large banks downtown visits a school,
collects the school children's savings,
and gives them credit in their bank
books
And in this method of banking.
which brings large sums in the ag
gregate. the heretofore despised penny
plays a large part.
Instead of purchasing a tempting
bit of candy or some nicknacks, the
children save their pennies and de-
posit them with the teachers, who, in
turn, hand the money over to the
principal and he passes it on to the
bank collector.
The savings are not as large as
usual this week." said Albert Lyser,
of the Roosevelt school. as
he held out a heavy sack of coin, of
which about half was pennies. You
see, Christmas Is approaching and the
children need little to celebrate the
occasion.
Yes, they do very WELL" he con-
tinued, in reply to question con-
cerning the attitude of the pupils to-
ward the saving bank plan. Even the
smaller children show an unusual in
terest and take great pride in swell
ing their bank accounts"

of the cases were such. About one
third of these were relieved by oper
atoms.
