GULFPORT. Miss, Mar. 11.-De-
troit is baseball team in the max
ing, team full of great latent posi-
bilities, and today it looks the most
dangerous team in the American
league to the chances of the Athletics.
The Detroit team in the American
league and the Boston team in the
National are much alike in one re-
Spect, ana that is that they are at last
starting at the bottom to rebuild a
real club. These two teams have the
mere framework of champion ship
clubs and they seem to have cornered
the market in the search for new
talent.
The thing that impresses me most
in watching the Tigers working here
at Gulfport is the fact that they are
the best handled team of youngsters
l ever have seen. tt training meth
DDS employed by Jennings are superb
or TO those of any other manager 1
ever have seen, not barring those of
McGraw. Jennings, TO my way of
thinking, is one of the greatest Of
managers, weak only in that he has
in the past played favorites. He has
allowed Cobb to get away with lot
of things that he would not have Ell
dured from any other man. and this
has hurt the team greatly. Cobb
seems to have come to a sense OF
realization of this fact He is older.
more settled and he does a lot more
thinking.
Detroit always has been a team
that plays hard. This spring that
spirit of driving. hard running hard
sliding ia more noticeable than it
ever has been.
The Tiger team will sound strange
TO their old favorites this year. COBB
and the rescued Crawford will be
there-the same old run-getting COM
bination that has made the team so
strong. Stanage will do most of the
catching. of course. Mckee. a huSll:

score was % to four, and was Just as
bad as the tally indicates. The losers
were afflicted with hOodOo and were
unable TO hit the baskets with any ac-
curacy. II. Garfield, the Methodist
center was the star of the first game
for his team, while the best perform
ance for the Presbyterians was shown
by Butcher, left forward.
st. Paul administered a severe
drubbing TO the five from the Mizpah
Evangelical church, the score sheet
showing % TO II in the favor of the
former. The second game was a bit
faster than the other, and was more
replete with thrills and quick action.
The basket tossing of Berger and Sib-

the game, while the teamwork Of this
twain was of the best. The Engdahl

Nevada Wonder Report is Good.

Reno Nevada dispatch says:-The report of J. A. Burgess, superintendent of the Nevada Wonder Mining company, shows that 8, 73O tons of ore was milled during April with total net profit of 22, HAS. An extraction of 93.5 per cent was made in the mill. Development totaled 66O feet of driving, crosscuttlng and raising, and POT feet of shaft sink ing divided among three shafts. The Nevada Wonder shaft has reached depth of 1889 feet, and sinking has been stopped for the present. The crosscut on the 1,3OO-level is now being driven toward the vein, and has reached a point 122 feet from the shaft. It IS expected that the vein will be cut at about $50 feet from the shaft. A new head-frame has been built at the Hidden Treasure shaft, and small electric hoist installed. Crosscutting will be begun at this shaft in few days on the 7OO-foot level for the purpose of prospecting the vein. Sinking is still in progress at the Wonder Extension shaft. which is down AT feet. It is planned to sink this shaft to 800 feet before crosscutting to the vein. At this depth connection will be made with the 1000 foot level from the New ada Wonder shaft.
