COMING
TO Open SEASON
AT FOOTBALL HERE

Announcement was made last night
that the first game of football for
the season in Pine Bluff will be
played at Athletic field On Saturday,
October Z, between the squads repre-
senting Dermott and the Pine Bluff
High school.
The schedule of games for the sea-
son is almost completed, and it is
about the hardest schedule Pine Bluff
has ever had. Games will be played
with all the representative schools Of
the state, among them Little Rock
college, Lonoke, Little Rock High
school, Fordyce, Texarkana, Texas,
and Arkadelphia, in addition to sew
eral others not yet signed up.
Coach Bassett is most encouraged
over the showing of the men who
have been selected for trials On the
squad, and he believes now he will
be able to put an eleven onto the
gridiron which will make a creditable
showing. There are twenty men at
work every day, from which he will
select the squad, and these men are
putting in all their leisure time get
ting coached into the fine points of
the game.
During the past week, the boys
have been getting lessons in punt
ing, passing and handling the ball,
standing and on the run, how to
tackle best, how to avoid getting
hurt, and other necessary instruction
along the same lines. The boys who
are new to the game, and most of
them are new, are showing gameness
and the proper spirit, but they are
green, in every respect. However,
they. are lining up nicely.
The coach is apparently having MS
greatest trouble filling the quarter
back positions. Wilson and Perdue
are at quarter now, but the coach is
figuring on making Perdue half hack.
Gould is the My really good back
now in harness. Heaslee, Bishop.
Crump, Wilson and Perdue, are all
showing up in nice shape. Lindsay
and Sorrells have been added to the
squad and both have weight and
speed. the former tipping the beam
at about 175 and the latter at some
thing like 100. The coach expects
his line to average about 155 pounds,
which is a nice, comfortable weight,
and the one difficulty at this time is
the inexperience on the part of the
backfield.

SHAKE UP DUE
IN Series Which
WILL START TODAY
Phillies to Open at Brook
lvn and Braves at New
York, in National League.

Philadelphia will open series at
Brooklyn today, and the Boston
Rlaves will start series a: New
York, in the National league, and it
is almost certainty that upon these
two series will rest the decision as
to which of those four clubs shall be
awarded the National league 1916
pennant.
The Superbas are now one and one
half games ahead Of the Phillies. The
series which starts today will likely
send one or the other of these clubs
virtually out Of the race.
Boston is two games behind the
,Phillies and three and oaehalf games
back of Brooklyn. The Giants are
almost too far behind the Phillies to
win the pennant, but they are in posi-
ton to put Boston out Of the race, If
they continue their record breaking
string of victories, having run the
string already up to % straight.
If the Giants take the series from
the Braves. the Braves will go to
fourth position, with McGraw's mel
in third place, and fighting for sec
ond position. If Brooklyn takes the
series from Philadelphia. the Giants
are likely to move right along into
second position. If the Phillies take
the series from Wilbert Robinson's
outfit the Superbas will most likely
remain in second place.
Close students of the relative
strength of the teams, and men who
have watched carefully how the clubs
have played, one against another,
figure the Superbas will close the
series by maintaining their lead,
while the Giants will take third place
from the Braves

Boston Braves Win.

Boston, Sept. 27.-Boston won it's
sixth straight game, l to 0, from
Pittsburg to-day, in the last home
game of the season. Tyler was new
er in danger. The locals got one run
in the eighth inning on base on
balls, a sacrifice hit, and single by
Magee.
Today's game was not scheduled.
Both clubs had an open date, and
there was a postponed game due
them. The local management notified
Pittsburg the game would be played
today, and then announced the game
would be played in the forenoon. so
that there would be no counter at
traction on the part of the American
league game between Boston and New
York in the afternoon. The Braves
won, putting them half game closer
to the leaders.

TESTS TO DETERMINE
CHARACTER OF Mill

Geo. f. Turpen, of Rochester,
who has been looking over various
camps for several months, was in
Lovelock this week for a short stay.
He is on his way to San Francisco
with a complete sampling of the
Rye Patch mine to have the assays
made to determine the value Of the
ore exposed in the mine and on
the old dumps.
The outcome of these assays will
be the determining factor in the
question whether the company will
be warranted in building a 100 or
200 ton mill. The new company is
amply financed and if their plans
are carried to completion will put
old Rye Patch back or the map

CHAMPION is SOLD
TO ELY OPERATORS

r. w. Vevia and Allan Ferguson.
who recently purchased the Cham
pion mine from the Halstead es-
tate, have been steadily develop
ing the property for some time pas
and expect to make a shipment of
lead-silver ore in about three weeks.
They have a scheelite vein on the
property, a number of assays from
which show values ranging from
1.48 to 3.76 per cent, but owing to
the low price of the product at
the present time they are making
no effort to develop this lead. They
are combining their energies to the
lead-silver lead, which gives val
ues of 46 ounces silver, A per cent
lead and $50 per cent copper. The
Champion is located in the Ne
vada district about Z miles from
East Ely, and can be easily reach
ed by an auto. The road is signed
to the mine from the hospital

BOOM ISL
ON THE WAY

With the bonding of the Scheele
mine near Fredericksburg to Love
lock people, and the subsequent To-
cation of many claims in that To-
cality and the appearance of several
prospectors with their familiar bur
ros, is beginning to make the peo-
pie of that section believe thai
there will be something doing, and
possibly the opening of a new min
ing district, says the Record-Courier.
Fred G~ransberg was down from
Fredericksburg Monday and reports
that from what he understands, the
parties who have a bond on the
Scheele property. are particularly
we'll pleased with the showing thus
far made. They are satisfied that
they have the makings of a rich
mine.
Who knows but what another
Tonopah, Goldfield or Rochester
is about to come to light in this
vicinicty?

Bold Highway Robbery

One of the boldest and best plan
ned highway %robheries ever perpe-
trated in Reno took place a few
days ago between six and seven
o'clock in the evening on the road
near the Verdi bridge across the
Truckee. James Morley and Jack
Brown, two young Kansa men,
were the victims. They were re-
lieved of $275 in greenbacks and
left unconscious by the roadside.
The robbers made good their es-
cape and although the victims are
able to give a fairly good description
of the men. no trace of them has
been found. Merely and Brown
were kicked out of an automobile
into which they had been invited
by the two men, hit on the head
and relieved of their money. They
were taken to Reno by a stage driver
and reported the case to the police
who have since been working on
the case.
