EMIGRATION FROM
HUNGARY OPPOSED
NEED ALL ITS ABLE
BODIED MEN

BUDAPEST, Hungary, July 40
Hungary, probably more than any
European nation, is going to have
to erect restrictive barriers against
the emigration of its inhabitants to
America after the war, in the opin-
ion of DR.. Gustav Gratz, member of
parliament and director of the Hun
garian Manufacturers association.
At the same time if the United
States hopes entirely to escape from
an inundation of so-called "cheap
labor" it must cooperate and it.
self put up barriers which shall
help to keep out the thousands who,
DR.. Gratz believes, will want and
try to forsake their native country
and it's heavy problems.
DR.. Gratz declares that he knows
from personal investigation that the
tendency to emigrate from agri-
cultural Hungary will be in strong
contrast to the tendency in indus
trial Austria and Germany to stay
at home.
H6 CduSc lOI ILLS IcuucuCy III
course, he explains, is to be found
in the fact that the agricultural
worker is not going to be so for
tunately situated after the wal as
the industrial man, especially as
the worker in Germany and a great
part of Austria who is probably go
ing to find plenty of work at wages
high enough to offset the present
and prospective high prices.
Yet, he believes, there will be
some tendency on the part of the
skilled laborer to go across to the
new home. His hope that this is
going to be prevented during a
critical period in Europe lies not
only in possible legislation here, but
in the repeated indications frorI
America that she would like e
check the number of emigrants ccEl-
ing to her.

BASEBALL BECOMES
POPULAR IN MEXICO
GREASER PLAYERS ARE BECOM-
ING PROFICIENT IN SIDE
STEPPING CURVES

Ell PASO, Texas, Aug. 3O.-Base-
ball is rapidly becoming the most
popular sport in northern Mexico.
Hundreds of mines have been organ
lied in the various cities in the last
year, and it is frequently predicted
hat with the recent abolition of
bull fighting, baseball may become
the national sport of the country.
In Juarez. Chihuahua. Jiminez
and Parral. each Sunday afternoon
sees many corner lot games in prog
ress. Americans living in the re-
public have introduced the game
and taught the natives the funda-
mental rules. In JuareZ n Chi
huahua there are semi-professional.
uniformed mines, playing in leagues
with regular schedules.
In cities more distant from the
border the players frequently appear
on the diamonds in tattered uni
forms, discarded by the soldiers of
the various factions whose strife
has torn Mexico for five years. With
their bare toes sticking through
their sandals and their tattered
sombreroes tapping in the wind,
they play a creditable game of ball.
In most of the border cities the
Mexican teams cross to the Ameri-
can side regularly and play with
American mines, in many cases over
whelmingly defeating their oppon-
ents. Jose Villareal, a Mexican
pitcher of Juarez. has pitched two
no-hit, no-run games against fast
semi-professional teams of Eel Paso
this year, and Eel Paso enthusiasts
frankly admit that Villareal and
Juan Chasoan, his catcher, COM
prise the most effective battery in
the vicinity.
General Gonzales, commanding
the Carranza army in northern Chi
huahua, discussing the rapid growth
of baseball in his territory recently,
pointed out that the de facto gov
eminent has encouraged the organi-
zation of teams, believing that an
interest in sports begets stability.
Followers of the game in Mexico
say that few of the players hit well.
the majority of them apparently
being unable to judge the speed or
direction of a pitched ball ac-
curately.

NEW COMPANY
TO MAKE RAIN
G~OLDFIELD MEN INVENT DE-
VICE TO TURN DESERT
INTO SWAMP

A loud explosion that brought peo-
pie running from their homes oc-
Cured on the malapai at 1910 to-
day. 1t was the first bomb fired by
the newly organized C~lark-Fagen-
bush Rainmaking company, whose
promoters promise more vegetation
for Goldfield than was ever in the
garden of Eden.
The inventors and promoters of
the system are Charles Fagenbush,
a mining man and promoter, and
Peter Clark, a local capitalist, who
is also it's financial hacker. Fa-
genbush is president and Clark is
secretary and treasurer of the COM
pany.
When interviewed, the president
of the company said:
The trouble with all rain-mak-
ing devices used before is that the
machine from which the bomb has
been thrown was not accurate
enough or lacked power to reach
the rain-filled Clouds" He states
that these defects have been rem
edied in the present bomb-thrower.
The device is now being installed
on the root of the First National
bank building and a demonstration
of it's merits will be given the Gold
field public next Thursday. AS it
takes some time to regulate the ma
chine to atmospheric conditions be-
fore the bomb will be effective, the
exact time for the demonstration
has not been fixed. Goldfield resi-
dents have been requested not to
leave their homes at any time on
that day without umbrellas and
overshOes.
The costly experiments which have
been conducted have about exhaust
ed the financial of the
company, and subscriptions are now
being taken. One of the most active
solicitors is Bat Sullivan of the fire
department. He is collecting at the
rate Of 25 cents per week from each
subscriber.
The company guarantees to pro-
duce rain on Tuesday and Friday of
each week. In the event that it
rains but once, Is cents will be
charged for that week, a dime be-
ing refunded or credited on the next
weeks dues. The recent heavy
rains have been caused by prelimi-
nary experiments of the company.
Subscribers have been requested to
see that Bat rings up all money paid
him on a cash register which he
carries on a string around his neck.
To date the following subscrip-
Ttions have been received: w. r.
Rendant, 81; A.. l.. Wilson, 81;
A. H. PETIT, % cents; F. }. Chase
so cents; j. F. Brockman, 81; EN-
orv J.. Arnold, 20 cents; Milton M.
Detch, 25 cents; Willis Lawrence.
so cents; Waugh Drill company, 80
cents; Peter Felis, 25 cents; Harry
B. Ruhl, so cents; Weldon Morris,
so cents.
The president of the company
states that with such representative
men heading the list he will be able
to secure ample funds for the in
%stallation of the system.
w. F. Rendant, a real estate man,
has a flower garden and a tree
agency and thinks the new scheme
will be a great thing for the town.
A. L. Wilson, a hotel proprietor,
was afraid the new invention would
produce a cloudburst, but was as
sured that the bombs would only
shoot the edges of the clouds n
that the gunner would use great
care. A. H. PETIT is a prominent
railroad man, and F. j. Chase is
known as the walking apotheosls or
financial conservatism.
