 This waa a bright. balmy, warm, sunshiniy day at Katalla, even though there @ downpour of rain. Soon after the steamer Watson hove to at daylight the word was waftedoyer the almost deserted village that the government had awakened from its lethargetic stage of inactivity And by o'clock party of i7 men, with necessary equipment Of horses and supplies had landed the shores of Katola bay And then it was that tue entire population turned and begun o mar vel the sudden turn of fortune. They soon realized that the premnaries to the development of the Berng River coal fields were about to be started.
 And they in the not far distant future the ar rival Of hundreds of with large cargoes of supplies and machinery. And they littlo later the steam engines putting into their thriving and populous little city drawing scores Of cars containing the anthra cite. bitumnous and semtbituminous coal of the im mense Boring River district. And they huge coal bunkers and various manufactories. And as nghtia came they gazed into the brilliantly lighted homes and saw there contented and prosperous people And then they realized that the dreams that they had dreamed for To- these many past, were in reality mind pictures Of the conditions which were soon actually to exist.
 And are an hoping that with the coming today Of the party of government surveyors to make possible the early leasing Of the coal of the Boring fields will be but the orerunner of many good things in the way of development and activity that the patient people of Katalla have well earned. And of Gordoya also hoping that branch railroad will be running from Mile SS on the Copper River Northwestern Railway to Katalla and on up to the rich fields of coal

 The Impotence of Theodore Roosevelt in the pres ent crisis would be highly exasperatng if it were not funny Serious treatment would involve scathing in dictmen Of Mir Roosevelt for violating every rule of ePesdenal sense and courtesy in his interview that saw the light recently It is easier, and more approp riate. him chartered scod and let Che un conscious humor of his procurement tighten for on instant somber situation. Teddy knows not only ex actly what ought to have been done but the precise hour u which it ought to have come to pass. Within 2f hours our commerce with Germany should have been suspended etc. etc. Roosevelt is man incapable or learning anything from experience His experience as an executive should have taught him the priceless value the nation of united support of the President in an emergency. Cruel as the fact is there is no way in which we can oust the President we have and put Roosevelt with all his wisdom in emergences--so re- fgently illustrated when two gentlemen once called oa him before breakfast tell him the country would panic if he did not let the Steel Trust swallow Tennessee Coal and Iron into his place. We must continue to get with Woodrow Wilson. So Teddy ought to have encouraged us to trust him. instead of revealing the that the only way to the country was to follow program the time for which had ever lastingly gone by when the oracle spoke. it will be observed that do not say The Colonel should have kept still We recognize the fact that the day of mir acles is past Teddy will keep stin, in an hour when silence wisdom when the cows roost and the chick ems give milk'-as the French peasants say.

 No one in particular has given the Cubs even an outside chance. But in spite of being overlooked Bresnahan still has his clan breezfng along in polite society and the Cubs, like the l'lrates, spend the greater part of Sep tember at home
 It might be suggested that the Cubs hardly stack up as championship stuff. But what other club in the N L. can be rated as a championship clan upon form shown this season
 The Reds are down around the foot But they look about as good now as any of the others. They have shown about as much class or even more, by cutting the heart out of Pittsburg in a five game series, beating Alexander on home soil and then opening with a victory over the Giants. One club IF that circuit looks apout the same as any other. And certainly no club yet has cut in with any glitterfng championship class.

You've Met Him.

 He starts with a cheer-but he ends
 with a knock If he had to boost something the
 sucker would croak; You're a great little guy IL It
 wasn't for this"- And then he comes through with a
 terrible soak; He starts you off right, but he quail
 fies strong; Before he is finished you're worse As if he was trying to slip through How much do you think of fellow
 like that?, I can stand for the guy who begins With a Jump Who brands you a boob or joke or
 mutt;
 Who admits that he never was strong
 for your play, And goes to the end without taking
 a cut:
 But the fellow who starts with
 boost for feint-- Who calls you a friend while he's
 rocking the boat "Yes, Bills a fine fellow-but why
 does he steal?''- And yet there's a law against cutting
 a throat!
 PLATO PETE. What is the main shot in golf,' in ouires Beginner, 'the drive, the ap- proach Or the putt v The one you miss.
 Too Much Grvund. Dear Sir: To settle a dispute, what is the greatest battery baseball has ever known? An answer to this would be of interest to q great many readers.
 FAN. This order is slightly too bulky for out limited capacity. But here are a few to select from:
 Clarkson and Kelly-Bosto on, 1891. Ruse and Ewing-New York, 1892. Nichols and Bergen-Boston, 1897. Young and Zimmer-Cleveland 1893.
 Mathewson and Bresnahan-New York, 1905.
 Brown and Kling-Chicago 1906. Walsh and Sullivan-Chicago CA L.) 1906
 Johnson and Ainsmitf-washing ton, 1912. It would take {, brave man to pick out any one battery from even this partial list and label it as the great est ever known. It would be difficult , to prove that any of these mentioned l had very much even upon the two i star batteries of the present year l Alexander and Killifer Or MamauX l and Gibson The most effective bat i tery com bination we have ever seen under fire-the most efficient for all l around resourcefulness-w the Mathewson-B -Bresnahan battery in the 1 worlds series of 1905, where Matty pitched three shutouts ana Bresna- hans catching was one of the big features of the series. Brown and Kling formed one of the great bat l teries of all time-but for the term "greatest'-that lies out beyond eour ! ken.

he heard that Fred Clarke had bought him from Herzog. All the teams in the league are roofing for McGraw to win out in the controversy, as they believe that Pittsburg already has a strong team and even without Ben ton is dangerous pennant con- tender, while the acquisition of the Rube by McGraw could not help the Giants to any considerable extent. In the meantime Benton is not wor- rying as, no matter how the dispute is settled, he is sure a berth, Ben ton is show in action.
