BRAVES HAVE LESSON TO LEARN
HOLD OPPONENTS LIGHTLY
BY Mark Shields

Evidently last year was not fruit
full lesson to the Boston Braves.
OvercOnfident to the point Of sWeIled-
headedness, they did not win pen
nant when the league was much soft
er than in 1914, the year their rush
for the top and subsequent victory
over the Athletics in the worlds Sc
ries gave Stallings the title of Mira
Gle Man" and instituted the pesky
outield shift
The only explanation for their fail
ure last season was that they thought
too highly of themselves and did not
consider it necessary to play much
baseball They had a better paper
team than the Phillies.
Now critics who have seen them in
action this much of the present sea-
son claim the same condition OBJ
tains. They hold every opponent
dignity, do not mind the handicap Of
a few runs, believing they can pull
down any club in the league.
That is a fine state of mind when
there is the mechanical power nee
essary to back it up! But the
Braves won their tame as a defensive
team through stout pitching, excel
lent fielding and the scoring Of COM
paratiVely few runs. 1t is not the
kind Of a team that can, under or
binary circumstances, spot the av-
erage team to a big lead and then
drag out victory
Dick Rudolph pitched in a carefree
manner yesterday He seemed to
overlook the fact that he was showed
up against a clouting crowd, liable to
roll up a lot of runs from the best
pitching. He started by holding the
! Cubs lightly and was given terrific
punishment in the very first inning
The only reason he lasted that frame
was that the Cubs did not run bases

I felt 80 sorry for the poor woman

The only excuse these hasty buyers
offered for being sos hypnotized and
rushed through by the pnprincipled
land men, was that they were behind
with their corn husking and wanted
to get back at it. Well, we hope
they get their corn out, but they.

MONARCH WAITING To LOWER
WATER ON the Lowest level

there will be new shaft sunk or up
raised. This win expedite work and
will afford circulation of air, the
property being one of the few not
connected with any other in the
district. Air circulation, governed by
fans, is assisted at present by the
fact that the shaft is lined, giving
one of the compartments an up and
the other down cast.
On the thousand level, where the
only moisture Is from the sweating
of the rock, there is unique COM
bination of oxides and sulphides, the
vein being at the point of transition
This would make it very interesting
with hundred feet greater depth.
The present find is nearly in the
center of the Monarch claim. In the
event of the discovery of pay ore,
which seems probable in view of the
present showing. the company would
have long trend on the lens and
would not be in any danger whatever
of being apexed.

Measured at right angles from the
dipping walls, the ledge in the Mon
arch Pittsburg is 43 feet in width
on the thousand level. This may or
may not be a coincidence, but it is
the exact width of the Murray on the
1910 level OF the Extension. In the
Monarch, however, the enrichment is
not sufficient to make a saving. The
breast of the drift now being run,
which is bearing rs degrees south of
west and is $50 feet from the shaft,
shows from SIS to 81, with select
samples running up to $3.50. The
walls are West End rhyolite and
Extension breccia In the breccia
are nodules Of trachyte, indicative of
the existence of bed of this matrix
material at greater depth.
Unfortunately, the Monarch at pres
ent is unable to explore this ledge on
its lowest level, the water line being

equip the property with an adequate
pumping plant. There are, however,
great expectations arising from the
contemplated work by the new cor
poration that has taken over such
vast acreage in the western end of
the district. The proposed crosscut
from the Bonanza to the Great West
ern, 5000 feet in length, will drag
large volume of water and will neces-
sarily lower the level in the Monarch,
doubtless making it possible to pursue
deep work without using pumps. In
this event the vein can be tapped at
place where it will probably have
the benefit of trachyte walls and the
resultant additional enrichment.
The present work is being carried
on at considerable distance from the
smart, making the tramming cost a
considerable item. This is cut down
one third from the ordinary expense
by the use of ball bearing ore cars,

this city. 1t is probable, however
