The Hood River glacier. (Hood River, Or.) 1889-1933, 1915-05-20

One of the horticultural marvels of
the age is two apple orchards located
IL miles from Estancia, N. NJ, which
according to authentic legend and his
tory, are more than 300 years old. The
trees are still rugged and healthy and
each yaer they bear bountiful yield
of delicious fruit. Geo. H. Clements,
who recently visited the ancient land
marks and who is familiar with the
romantic history of the southwest,
says:
What the prehistoric tillers of the
soil did in the way of producing crops
can only be conjectured. 1t is known
that they grew a variety of corn very
similar to the corn now grown every
where throughout the United States,
and there are abundant evidences that
they knew something about irrigation,
as there are traces of acequias and
water holding borders over vast acre
ages of land skirting the foothills in
which their cities were built.
THAT the ancients were growers Of
fruit is attested by the two old apple
orchards still standing, still growing,
still bearing in the vicinity of the town
of ManzanO, and others not quite so old
in the vicinity of Punta de Aqua, the
comparatively modern town which
sprung up, in the first decade of the
18th century, near the ruins of La
Cuarai.
"The origin of these old apple orch
ards is shrouded in as much mystery as
is the origin of the old pear orchards of
Ysleta, Texas. famedsin song and story,
and which have furnished food for
thought for generations of antiquarians.
at is supposed that the old trees
were planted in both instances by some
of the priests accompanying the quest
of the tabled boards of treasure con-
tanned in the mythical Seven Cities of
Cibola. Why pears should have only
survived at Ysleta, Texas, and apples
at Manzano and Punta de Auga, New
Mexico, is part of the mystery con-
nected with the story of their planting
and propagation.
Besides the old apple orchards at
the town of Manzano, which is but IL
miles west of Estancia, on splendid
highway over which automobiles may
be driven at good rate of speed, there
is much which should be of interest to
the tourist"

game of that day; in the later ses sion they discussed the failures and successes of the game which had passed, and the application of their observations to those that were to come. The result was a Red Sox success.
 A somewhat similar board has grown up in the American League pennant winners of this year. Car rigan and Wagner again are mem bers, and the manager has called into the councils his field captain Barry. with the latters learning from the school of Mack, and his observa- tions on many fields, at his com mand.
 The combination has proved a hap py one. Carrigan and Wagner are bound personally by the ties of nearly a decade of companionship as mem- berS of the same team, room mates in fact; and Carrigan and Barry bound by early association as mem bers of the same college team, Barry having played with Holy Cross dur ing Carrigan's last year there. It is believed that their deliberations will play a large part in the playing plans of the series this year

Red Sox. he is a college man. He came to Boston from Holy Cross in 1907. The following season he was sent to Toronto of the Eastern League for experience, returning to Boston a reliable catcher and good batter at the close of the Eastern season. He has been with Boston since.
 As player, Carrigan has occupied a peculiar position under several To- cal arrangements. His practical knowledge of the game was rated so highly that manager after man. ager called upon him for assistance. This was particularly true in the 1912 world series when Manager Jake Stahl impressed Carrigan and Heinie Wagner to serve with him as joint members of an unofficial board of strategy.
 Tais board, which frequently had the benefit of advice from President James R. McAleer, himself an old player and manager, met twice day during that series, in the morning before members of the team gathered in body, and in the evening after the game At the first meeting they mapped the plan of campaign for the

hind the bat, and in the last few years of his career with the Phillies he was used to help develop pitchers In this he had a wonderful success. Many give Moran credit for making Grover C. Alexander the pitcher he is today. He helped also to develop pitchers Mayer and Eppa Rixey.
 Moran's selection to manage the PhiIlies came as a surprise to the baseball world, as it was not thought he had ambition in that line. The first intimation that he might sue ceed Dooin came during the Worlds Series last year and shortly after ward the announcement was made.
 From a disorganized ball club due to numerous changes Moran welded together a smooth harmonious team of players. In the spring no one picked the Quakers to win. They opened the season by winning eight games straight. Despite numerous predictions that the team would crack Moran kept them in front Pennant talk among the players was barred by Moran. Each day the team went Moran sought to produce harmony among the men. The players re Spected him and the result was that things moved along just as the new baseball general had planned them.
 Manager William F. Carrigan will be the first playing manager to fi- gure in a world series in several years. He has specialized in catch ing his left-handed twirlers, and will be behind the bat in games pitched by Leonard and Ruth. Never great catcher mechanically, Carrigan for many years has been credited with being a better aid to the pitcher in determining the weakness of bats men, and taking advantage of this knowledge, than any backstop in the league.

ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH

NEW YORK, Oct. 4-When the Philadelphia Nationals and the Bos- ton Americans meet in the worlds series later in the week new leaders will be seen at the managerial helms and tEe success or failure of the contending clubs will depend, to q great extent, upon the skill with which these men pilot their baseball machines In Pat Moran and Bill Carrigan the Phillies and Red SoX respectively have diamond directors who ale equipped to take their place in worlds series history alongside Connie Mack, George Stallings, John McGraw and Jake Stahl.
 Both Moran and Carrigan have earned their positions at the head of the two pennant winning clubs by hard and conscientious application in their chosen line of life work. Each has risen from the ranks after serv- ing hard apprenticeship and there are no secrets of the national game with which they are not familiar. When the teams take the field it will he as much a battle of mana gerial wits between Moran and Car rigan as it will be a contest of skill and endurance between the individ- ual players and the teams considered as units.
 In one respect the Red Sox leader will have an advantage over his Philadelphia rival for in some of the games at least Carrigan will be seen in catching uniform. Moran is just as familiar with the duties devolv- ing upon the backstop for he made his reputation as catcher as Car hoe rigan has done but. during the past the bench whereas Carrigan has been in the thick of the pennant struggle much of the time
 Patrick J. Moran, who has won a niche in basebalrs hall of fame by reason of his whipping what was considered a mediocre ball club into a championship team. is product of New England mill. Like Connie Mack, who left a Massachusetts shoe factory to win fame, Pat Moran gave up job in a textile mill in Fitch burg Mass, to make a name in his favorite pastime
 Moran was born in Fitchburg a lit tie more than forty years ago, and at an early age found his way to a job in mill. There is a story told that young Pat first became an adept in handling a ball by playing with yarn balls. In any event he easily took to baseball and as he grew up he played on amateur teams in Fitchburg. He caught most of the time and sometimes played in the infield. He first came into general notice as a catcher for the Fitchburg Athletic Club.
 Moran was so good that he was offered a place on the Central Parks team of Orange, Mass, where he played in 1895 and 1896, and then as all good ball players do he found his way to larger fields. In 1897 Moran was with the Lyons team of the New York State League, catch ing seventy six games The next year he caught ninety three for the same club. In 1899 Moran was pur- chased by the Montreal Club of the old Eastern League, and 1900 found him behind the bat of the Boston National League grounds. He spent five years with that team and then joined the Chicago Nationals and was with the Cubs when it was a cham pionship ball club
 Fate sent Moran to the Philadel- phia Nationals in 1910 as a second string catcher. Charles s. Dooin was then the star and Pat did not get many chances to show his worth be-

SAAKE-UP IN
 COYOTE LINE
Marian Pulled Back to Half; Latham Out of Center; Boido at End Some Changes in Layout Be fore Alumni Game
(By LYLE ABBOTT)

The Alumni's crack backfield, con- sisting of Whiz Peters. Thoman, Big Irion and Boots Harrison has trun a man. sized scare into the Coyotes Understand, this is not the fear and trembling" kind of scare but the kind of a scare that impels persons to take precautions. Far be it from us to accuse the Coyotes of entertain ing any fearful emotions regarding the outcome of the game with the Old Boys next Saturday afternoon at Riverside.
 In odd coincidence with the discov- cry of the speed and general class of the Alumni backfield the $1OOOOO backfield, Coach Geary has hinted at one grand shakeup in the Coyote lineup. Possibly Geary is merely put ting the prod to some of his backward lads. At any rate, the situation is this:
 Stirring 'Em Up
 Latham has been passing rottenly to the backfield though his work with quarterbacks has been all right. Un- less he materially improves his hand ling of a new ball in today's work out he will be succeeded by the tall and lathy Kraft. Captain Marian will drop from an end and work in one of the halfback positions. Walters will prob ably hold the other halfback job, leaving the freshman. Detwiler, to scrap for his place. Fullback is d puzzler so far.
 L. Boido will be shifted from guard to end This is truly a strange shift, but seems justified by Boido's speed. Big Abbott ( no relative) is looking good for one of the guard jobs Tackles will be held down for a time, at least, by the freshman, Westfall, and Duncan, who weighs as much as does his partner.
 Some of the Has Wazzas
 B. J. .Bellas, Bill Corpstein. George Lutgerding and the aforementioned Peters. Irion, Harrison and Thoman. will constitute the major portion of the Alumni team. They are looking so well after one evenings practice that Coach Bill Horrell is quite glad some
 Last year, the Alumni handed the Coyotes the only defeat of their sea son, and did it in a thorough and workmanlike manner Of course, some of them had had experience with college teams, while others had merely growed some in the meanwhile.
 While the Coyotes look good enough to back strong against any high school team, we have collected data about this season. their chances feminist the Alumni are such as to cause Geary to be pretty severe with his men. He will not predict a lineup, nor will he say what the high school can do against their elders. But he promises a worth while squabble while it lasts.

COUNTY DEFENDER
is NEXT OFFICE

With the election of sheriff, the
next appointment by the super
visors which may engross the atten-
ton of some will be the selection Of
a county defender. The Office was
created during the session of the past
legislature and will become an actu-
ality some time next month.
However, there are two features
which may prevent the office from
being filled. The first is that TIE
office carries with it a salary of only
S75 and the second is that the law
recites that the supervisors may ap-
point "if they see fit"
Also the law carries with it line
of duties which, obversely, appear to
be far in excess of the $75 stipend,
in that, in addition to criminal work,
the county defender must appear for
parties named in civil suits who are
unable to produce sufficient money to
retain an attorney. Further, all suits
for wages fall among the duties OF
the county defender.
Whether the board will appoint any
one to the position or even whether
there will be any applicants is a mat
ter of conjecture.
Persons arguing against creating the
office in this county have pointed out
that in the local Superior court only
3 appointments of attorneys for liti-
giants who have been unable to retain
LAWYER have been made in the past
7 months.
1t is further argued that if the Of
>fice is created the expense of the
county will be increased aside from
the $75 salary the defender will re-
ceive.
In many instances, they point out,
a criminal, if guilty, will chance being
acquitted by a jury when defended by
the county defender rather than plead
guilty.
Further, it is argued that county
defender naturally would be after a
record and in making that record the
county would increase its expense in
criminal trials.

Claim CarranzlStas
May Attack MexicaG

Persistent reports that 200 Carran-
zista sympathizers recruited from
Mexican residents of the valley are
moving toward Mexicali from Brawley
could not be confirmed today. 1t has
been rumored also that recruiting for
the Carranza cause has been going on
in he valley for the past four months.
A significant feature was the re-
port yesterday that lieutenant colo
mel in the Carranza army had been
seen at Calexico, although his mission
there was not divulged.
1t is estimated that there are about
1000 Mexican residents in the valley
and most of these are said to be Car
rama sympathizers. Reports during
the past month indicate that there has
been a steady exodus from the valley
towns to Calexico and that from FL
Centre alone 200 Mexicans have gone
to CaleXico.
Rumors state that the Carranza
sympathizers on the American side of
the line are waiting for Colonel Es-
teban Cantu of Mexicali, governor of
Baia California, to reduce his forces
by sending part to aid in quelling the
revolution at Ensenada. The reports
state that when this is done, the Car
rama forces from the American side
of the line will swoop down on the
town and, with the forces there weak
ened by the departure of part of the
regular squad, will meet with an
easy victory.
Aside from the revenue derived from
the town as a port of entry, Mexicall
is Of considerable Importance, being
the capital of Lower California.
Another feature said to be salient
about the whole affair is the fact
that very few of the Carranza sym
pathizers at CaleXico are employed IN
any kind of labor and that all of
them seem to be well supplied with
funds.
