Baseball Causes Friction at Needles.

Owing to the fact that Needles is jus now minus newspaper the MINER has been called upon to give the real facts o the agreement between the rival baseball teams of that town and the apparent fail ure of the loser to abide the result.
 During the past year the Kingman team has taken on alternately one team and then the other from Needles but what was known as the Clark team demurred to the recognition given the Ryan team claiming that the latter team was not recognized by the people off the town, nor was its members ball players. As re- suit proposition was made by MT. Ryan, manager of one team to Clark, of the other, that they meet on the diamond and settle once for all who was the real ball players, the defeated team to disband and give to the winner their undivided SUD- port, but not to again play ball in Needles as a team for one year. This agreement was signed by w. L. Clark and W. L. Ryan of the opposing teams and duly ack- nowledged before Roy Cain, a notary of that city.
 A series of three games was arranged for the team winning two out of the three games to be victor and to remain in the field, the other to disband. Ryan's team won two straight games and the cham pionship But this did not settle the mat ter in the way the agreement predecated, Clark simply stepping down as manager of the team and putting in a new manager. This was in direct violation of his agree ment. and as a consequence the Ryan players feel somewhat sore. Ryan to show his good intention offered to step down and out and let Clark bring the best of the two teams together, but this, it is understood, was refused. Clark not wish ing to take on any of Ryan's team, all though they showed their superiority over that of Clark
 Kingman people have always had a warm place in their hearts for the Ryan boys. as they have always played good clean ball and took defeat or victory with the best of good nature. It is to be hoped that our sister town will be able to bring about reorganization of the ball team to get the best that is in the town and to give the people good base ball.

DEMAND FOR FURS ENORMOUS
That the Worlds supply Will in Time
Be Exhausted May Be consd-
cred Certain.

The fur trade in the far north is
stlll on very much the same basis as
when Cartier and Champlain first
traded beads and kniekknacks with
the wondering chiefs of Quebec. A
million and half dollars worth of
merchandise goes north from Edmon-
ton, Canada, every spring to be ex.
changed for the two and a half mil
lions of fur that come back in mid
summer and autumn. SO far as the
fur trade in America is concerned,
the traders claim that there is no
percephble falling of as yet; that, in
fact. more fur is being brought to
market each year. But in Russia, Ger
many. Japan and Australia there Is
a general decrease in the supply. In
the past 20 years the worlds catch Of
the II most important furs has fall
en- OFF from five per cent. to 700 per
cent, while the demand for the moro
expensive varieties has multiplied
enormously. The ceaseless effort to
satisfy this demand can have but one
end, and it is only logical to expect
that even the great game preserves OF
the Canadian north and Alaska Will
in time be hunted bare.

Birds Had Learned the Trick Of Ring
ing a Bell TO Get Their Supply
Of Food.

During a recent visit TO the cathed-
raj city Of Wells. in. Somersetshire. a
Scotsman correspondent was witness
OF a curious incident The Episcopal
palace Is surrounded, just as in olden
times. by wall and moat, the haunt
OF swans, ducks, and other aquatic
birds. The moat Is CROSSED at the en-
trance 10 the palace grounds by a
drawbridge with a battlemented gate
way with towers. in one OF which is
the gatekeepers lodge From
bracket fixed in the wall OF one Of
these towers overlooking the moat
bell is suspended. with a cord at
tached.
One afternoon about FIVE o'clock,
while watching the movements OF the
various birds in the water the CORE
spondent heard the ringing Of a bell,
and. on looking to see whence the
sound came, he observed that one OF
the swans was vigorously pulling the
cord evidently to attract attention. As
no immediate notice was taken of itl
efforts, the impatient bird continued
to ring the bell violently until there
appeared at the window of the tower
the wife of the gatekeeper who threw
out a quantity OF food TO the expectant
waterfowl.
On making inquiries as TO the origin
Of this interesting episode, the CORE
spondent was told that a number OF
years ago a daughter of the bishop OF
Wells, being much interested in the
birds inhabiting the mOat taught the
swans to ring the bell at feeding time.
at FIVE o'clock in the afternoon. This
practice has been continued by success.
siye families of swans down TO the
present day, and ii would seem, there
fore. as Il the birds transmitted to
their offspring the knowledge that
when the cord was pulled the bell
would ring and that food would follow.

National Pride.

The belief that all foreigners are
inferior to ones own people is not pc
culiar to the so-called civilized ma
tions. Professor Summer of Yalo
used to call this national egotism
"ethnocentrism, and cited an instance
of il from message sent south by a
native Greenlander, extolling his land
and its inhabitants as greatly SUI
perior to the countries and races OF
white men. In the Journal OF Re-
ligious Psychology the anthropologist
Crantz is quoted as saying:
THE Greenlanders consider them
selves as the only civilized nation in
the world. They are far superior in
heir own estimation to the Euro
peans, who supply an inexhaustible
subject OF raillery for their social par
lies. They do not appreciate the at
tinde of arrogant superiority adopted
by many white men in their inter
course with so-called sayages."
