be out in front when the final awards
are made in October.
StaIlings is winning without a team
of stars. He has whipped into a fine
machine a crew of mediocre players
leavened with two or three men of
recognized merit, and individual play
is being subordinated to. the interests
of the team. 81.

a pace far beyond their natural gait.
In the outfieId the only man with
real experience is little Josh Devore,
released by both the Giants and Phil
lies. .DeVore was not. used regularly
until some time after StaIlings had
acquired him. Then he was put to
work, and he has been. a power in

The other outfieIders have never
done anything worthy of note. None
Of them were ever touted as stars,
but they are playing ball for Stallings.
Defense more than attack is win
ming for the team. and it is here that
the pitching staff has shown itself
equal to the situation. Tyler, James
and Rudolph are all pitching unbeat-
able ball, and Hess is throwing in a
good game at %opportune intervals.
At the start of the season none of
these pitchers seemed able to make
any Roadway, and their wildness was
in large part responsible for the poor
showing of the team.
Their failing made the team look
much weaker than it really ever was.

Six games back of the Giants
would be considered too much of a
handicap in ordinary years. But this
is no ordinary year in the National

chance of pulling down their adj

three-fourths OF the Bartlett pears OF
California are raised south OF Sacra-
mento in the rich river bottom soil.
These orchard lands are valued at
from $500 TO $500 an acre, but the
growth of Sacramento is so rapid
that the famous Reed pear orchard
in California is to be torn out to
make way for Improvements. Recla-
nation has been under direction of
Haveland, Tibbets & Dozier, the most
eminent reclamation engineers of the
coast The improvements are under
the supervision of Charles H. Cheney
and Louis p Hobart, the leading ar
ehitects of San Francisco. The West
Sacramento company has s750,000 in
trust with the Union Trust company
OF San Francisco to carry out pro-
jeeted Improvements this year. The
company has gone ahead on most
comprehensive and artistic scale pro-
viding parks, lakes and vast areas
OF lawns that are bound to render
this place one OF the most attractive
residential sections in the country

SPENT IN WEST SACRAMENTO
BEFORE GROUND OFFERED FOR SALE

The English vocabulary fails to fur.
nish sufficient scope to express the
sentiments OF the citizens committee
sent to West Sacramento 10 examine
and report on the lands Of that dis
4 trict nov being offered for sale in
/ Tonopah. The committee. consisting
Of Mrs. George E. Murphy and
Charles Benson. visited West Sac
ramento during the recent tractor
meet and they we're delighted with
what They saw and heard.
Mr. Benson, who is well known
for his connection with the Nevada
Sheet Metal Works, one Of the pio-
neer iron working concerns Of Tono-
pah. made diIigent inquiry about the
standing and credit Of the West Sac
ramento company and he convinced
himself that the members OF the
firm are capable Of carrying out
every promise and fulfilling every
pledge made by their agents here.
Best Place In Country.
From my observations have
reached the conclusion that Sacra-
mento is the best business place in
the United States today, remarked
Mr.. Benson to a Bonanza reporter
1T is one Of the few places in Cali
fornia that has not been doomed and
il is ripe for a quick turn in any
kind Of real estate. The population
has increased 100 per cent during
The last four years and the develop
ment Of the surrounding farming
country is going on at a rate that
must greatly enhance the value Of
the capital Of the state very materi-
ally While at West Sacramento
met numbers OF old time Nevadans
and they we're men of experience
and representing diversified inter
ests, so | was in position to get
the views Of men who have been
there long enough to get in touch
with the actual situation.
Spending Millions.
q never was more surprised in my
life 10 see what wonders had been
worked in West Sacramento. The
company has spent $500, 900 re-
claiming lands that are being rap
idly improved with factories, bunga-
lows. docks. railroad shops and acre
tracts for the man who wants home
and have enough ground to raise
few things for home consumption.
rhe company has a water front that
will furnish a harbor and warehouse
facilities for years to come and IT is
almost certain that in a short time
large proportion Of the river and
water transportation will be cen
tered here, owing to the superior
advantages of the sites in West Sac
ramento. To illustrate this more
forcibly | learned that the company
was considering a union stable for
the accommodation OF teamsters
whose teams are employed across
the river in the business district Of
Sacramento. Now they have to ira
vel from two to three miles to and
from work to house their teams.
Along the river front the West Sac
ramento company proposes to erect
a joint barn and feed stable where
these teams can be left for the night
within ten minutes from where they
are kept going through the daytime
This is only one Of the many sug-
gestions the company has in mind
and there is no end to the opportuni-

OF the alleged treachery of an officer

to his superiors regarding the presence
